That's indeed the rules. As long as devs show signs of life and comments on what's happening, games do not count as abandoned.

Nah...the mods aren't that curious. To keep your game from being marked abandoned after 3 months the dev needs to contact the mods. That's all there is to it.

Apparently the game still being in active development is what keeps it from being marked as abandoned.

what? games don't get marked as abandoned unless they're actually abandoned? this is madness!

Updating about updates is classified as active development..

The two devs also make games on their own (Polarity and Neko Paradise). They don't work full time on Radiant. I think they should though.
They definitely should. Or at least divide time commensurate with the compensation received per game.

Devlog #2 - Final Progress Report, Patreon Content, & More!
Hello guys & welcome to our new patrons!
I hope all of you are well & staying safe during all the chaos of COVID. As can be referenced by the title of this post, I wanted to drop a final, sort of "unofficial" progress update regarding the upcoming chapter, discuss exclusive Patreon content, and go over a few other things before the launch of Chapter 2.
I'll get the important part out of the way first: we are 90% of the way done with the chapter and progressing far more rapidly than we were at the start. We think you'll love it/feel that it was worth the wait. Somehow Alorth's render and overall visual quality has improved even more... so Chapter Two is far more beautiful than the first (and the girls are looking as gorgeous as ever).
In addition to this, I've provided a pretty large range of choices in this chapter, as I want players to shape the player-character early-on and mold him to fit their playstyle. Now... that's not to say that he doesn't have some autonomy, as I'd much rather write a character who has feelings and whims than an empty shell, but I think I've found a healthy/perfect balance between player control and character depth. Players can be excited to fill his shoes & get to know him as the story progresses.
I also want to give a quick update regarding Patreon: I've been pretty silent here/not dropping that much exclusive content... but that's fairly normal in the final stages of development, as I try to keep my focus on bringing you the game rather than fluff and extras. With all of that said, I plan to fully make this up to you guys after Chapter 2's launch day. Not only will you get the chapter in early-access here on Patreon, but once you've played it you'll have a series of polls, game music, character profiles, extra renders, and more exclusive, patron only content that you won't be able to get anywhere else.
Thank you all for being patient. Your patience and support means longer, better updates and the continued development of games like Radiant, Polarity, Neko Paradise, etc. We can't express enough how grateful we are for everyone who is supporting our endeavors, so we'll try to let the games speak for themselves. This new chapter is more than an hour long, and it's amazing! I can't wait for everyone to play it.
The next post you'll see from us here is the big one, so... see you guys soon!
Sincerely,
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I personally find it more "fun" to take that bitchy girl with the hard outer shell and turn her into a soft pussy cat by breaking through their shell to expose the soft, vulnerable centre through kindness and compassion. I'm just an old romantic in a young man's body.
Also, to all those people still whining about waiting 4 months for an update for a high quality VN...
I'm spliting my workflow evenly on my games and I also stoped making animations for other developers except Perverteer.
I even made a public post about it a while ago, so this just means people don't even care to search about information, rather just post here, next update when? Lol
So since it's a public post, feel free to take a look.
It's weekend and I have my popcorn, honey roasted nuts and coca cola ready to enjoy the show.

You just confirmed what I said?
The only thing I'm confirming is that I have even more time to give into development of Radiant.
Yeah but they say that you and Dammed should give up on Polarity and Neko Paradise (+ your animator role for Perverteer) just because money matters and Radiant outdevelops both your solo games. I think you said (in a patreon post if I'm not wrong) that thanks to your collaboration both of you can maximize your strengths in Radiant's development, and that thanks to this Radiant is hardly affected by any inconvenience that may arise in your solo projects, but they still think you should prioritize Radiant over everything else because money matters

Their other games get more support than most other games on the site - its would be a insult to those well developed games to drop focus on them to focus on the collaboration title. If your talking compensation then the other 2 total 4k vs the 6k this one gets but they also have much cheaper backer options so you could argue they have more support with that in mind.
I say let them make what they wanna make whenever they wanna make it so long as they are transparent on what they are doing on any given time ie what game they are currently working on, truthfully i think they are good at communication anyway. Either that or alternative is they listen to the entitled complaints that they drop the ESTABLISHED games they have been making for a brand new one just because whiners prefer that one. Do you have any idea how much heat devs have gotten over the years for focusing on newer projects over older established ones and yet we now have people openly encouraging the practice.
MILFY City gets no end of the heat for declaring hes fed up of the game, wants to wrap it up and start a new games as hes getting writers block on the it and is fed up of the same characters. I think these guys seem happier being creative across different games and styles vs forced to do something just because its a good earner (though thats a different matter than demands here anyway... a pirate site should not dictate what is the best way to meet 'compensation' levels lol). There is also the argument this dev team is much bigger vs private projects so 'compensation' is split between more staff and so lesser financially rewarding despite better income of support but by all means they should lose their biggest earners on a independent level just to sate demand for a more popular effort (again on a piracy site no less).
The real issue here is how the fuck this game has blown up to this level in a single update? Im not questioning the top tier quality of the art nor the writing - its not hard to see why its the new darling of fappers but they're treating it like Game of Thrones and George R R Martins notorious long writing times not what was literally a prologue and little else so far. But like Game of Thrones scenario i would never be one of those demanding he hurry the fuck up just because i enjoy the content as i prefer the content he intends to write vs whatever he can push out quicker just because you know thats how he makes an onscene amount of money as they are HIS books and his vision not ours.
