A Character Poll


Who is your favorite character so far? 

I would like to create poll for the characters for a long time! But i have to release my latest game Agent Alona first so there will be at least 3 characters for the poll. I would like to know who is the more popular character so far after you have played their games. I hope you will vote for the character you like most based on her appearance, personality and story....etc!

Here is some of the information on them :

Alona : This is the first character i created among the three characters. Some of you may think she is similar to Black Widow from Avengers but she is actually inspired by the female heroine 'Scarlett' in the first G.i.joe movie. The hair style is almost the same! She is also the first character that i wanted to make into an adult rpg game and tried. But later i have given up because the quality isn't good enough a few years ago. However, i have finally finished it recently and it has become my latest game!

Rachel : After releasing SS1 and was working on SS2, i was a bit tired of Sarah and decide to work on something else. The character is inspired by 'Jade' and 'Kitana' from Mortal Kombat 9. It is more like a combination of Jade's outfit and color and the appearance of princess Kitana! And i actually find she looks quite similar to Akali in League of Legends when i have finished the design for her, lol! At first, i was thinking about a battle/arena tournament game but later found it is quite difficult to make it interesting if it is only about fighting and decide to create a superheroine story instead!

Sarah : I have created this character accidently when i was playing around with my 3d stuffs and find she seems to have quite a lot of potential/utility! I think she is a character that can be appear in many situations. Like she can be an innocent survivor in a zombie world, a princess or a knight in a kingdom, a space ranger.....etc. She makes me want to give creating adult rpg game another try and it turns out to be my first game Survivor Sarah!

(And i have my favorite character too among the 3 characters and voted for her, haha! But i will reveal it later as i don't want to affect your decision!)

One day ago, i thought Rachel is going to be the more popular character among the three because she has like 15% more vote than Sarah and like 30% more than Alona. But it seems the vote for Sarah was suddenly boosted and she is now having around the same vote as Rachel(Did someone spam for Sarah??). I believe i have to give it some more time to see who is the more popular character now, lol! Thank you for everyone who has voted for the poll!

Thank you for all the voting! It seems the poll has ended for a while, i am sorry for the late response. My vote has actually gone to Alona as i prefer proud, confident and mature woman for a hentai game heroine! Also, i have created this character and rendered the pictures for her for a few years before other characters. Hmm.... i think i have some special feelings for this character, lol! But i know it will be either Sarah or Rachel that get more votes as Alona's game is released not for long and so far is a less likable character. I believe she is a more complex character that will take more time for people to actually like her. And more importantly, her appearance isn't as good as the other two to be honest. So, i have decided to create a new appearance for her and it is actually done! If she appeared in anymore game again in the future, she would have a new face and i hope you will like her better! Thanks.

The Decision

First of all, here is a brief report on the change of Patreon. With the increased reward requirement, i believe there are over fourty patrons are gone. It is understandable as $20 a month really isn't cheap after all. However, with some friends that helped on promoting the game on some sites, i have gained some new patrons. So, the overall monthly donation that i receive has increased slightly.

Honestly, i actually hoped the number would be either dropped greatly or meeting $2000 as it is my target so i would know clearly which path i should take. However, it seems everything has made it more like an even. So, for now, i will stick to my original plan to work for the 6 months that i have planned a test to work full time. 3 months have passed and there are 3 more to go. By the time, i should be able to finish the first part of SS2 and see if i can come up to a decision on this matter.

I am really impressed for some people is still willing to support for $20 a month. I think it has given me some motivation to continue. However, i understand it is not right to over burden to the people who is still willing to support. So, two more new options are added on Patreon :

Two New Options On Patreon :
$15 or above to receive Updates of Survivor Sarah 2
$20 or above to receive Updates of Survivor Sarah 2 and The Concept Art Gallery

So, if you have received the uncensored of SS1, you can choose to donate less and still receive the update of SS2. I hope it can create a balance on the overall requirement change. And somebody have pointed out that i may have misplace people's trust, if i switch the price during the development and i agree with that. So, i can promise this change will be the final until the development of SS2 is finished.

And there is still quite a lot of patrons still donated $10 or $15 in the last month that i am not sure whether they will continue to support and decide to give them more time. However, i cannot send them the update because the minimum donation to receive updates have shifted to $20 in September although it will be lowered to $15 in October. It is understandable some people may not know the sudden change of scheme. For this reason, i will offer refund to the people who have donated $10 or $15 and think they can still receive the update but will not. However, if they still want to receive the update for September, they can donate $5 to $10(to make their total donation to $20) more through the 'donate' button on my blog. I hope it sounds fair. But as i have already transfered the donation from Patreon to my account this month(I actually have made this decision before i did that but i transfered the donation as usual and cannot recall about it at that time....). Some of the refund can only be done in October and i am sorry for the inconvenience.

One another big change is the number of updates of each month will be reduced from 3 to 1 or 2. Originally, i think releasing an update every 10 days shouldn't be a problem and was a good practice to repay the donation from patrons. However, i found it is truly not good to the whole development. It is more like i have to worry about next update immediately after just releasing a new one. The stress is huge because of the schedule and all i want to do at that time is to finish the next update but actually 'disconnected' myself with the game. During the time, i found i cannot think of or create any new content because i just cannot enjoy the development like i did before. I believe the game will be better if those stress is gone or reduced. Also, i am not sure if people feel the recent updates in the past two months aren't good especially on the dialogues. I believe the more frequent i release an update, the quality will actually be worse because it is not like i got a team to help but done everything myself. I am now taking account on this whole issue as i am truly not happy with it.

I have recently checked my friend's patreon page and he is able to receive the donation which is almost a double of mine each month now. I have tried hard, however it seems the efforts just won't pay up to at least my target. I believe i have changed and can no longer become how i original feel on creating hentai games now. But i will see how it turns out in this few months.

Lastly, the newest Taimanin hentai game 'Taimanin Kurenai' that is going to be released in the end of this month looks really great! I don't really like the main heroine at first. But after looking at the previews, i know it is totally my type of game, haha! It is highly suggested to take a look!
