Last I remember, they put it on hiatus due to lack of interest.
Surprising that there was that little interest in it.
I remember people here being pretty stoked. Maybe the patrons didn't care much.
Though it makes sense that after the initial releases the novelty would wear off, and people would stick to the porn version instead of the one with 3% of the content. Maybe after they complete the game they could take a crack at it while making the next title.

I don't see why they would need to mess with the story content, just replace the jpg's and gif's, and png's as time allows.

It might've made more sense to release the art version as the normal version but with art for the parts they have so far, but then they would probably also have to deal with endless questions about why the art version just shows generic porn clips after a while. It would confuse people.
Honestly, they should've just made the art version a toggle in the options and then leave a disclaimer that it's still in development and not every part of the game has gotten art yet. But then again that might make the file size of the game too big, i dunno.

Is the game ended at chapter 5? John betrayed us in my playthrough and it seems like i got the bad end, is this intended or i'm missing something?

I don't think so.
They just haven't added any 'story content' for a very long time.

i miss the drawn ver so much </3
Why do you miss the drawn version?
Is it kind of like real art vs ai art?


I never tried it. It's not that I'm only pro Real porn or anti custom art...
In fact, usually the real porn is so terrible that it's hard to play these games.
They change actors from clip to clip which ruins it for me. I know it's hard to source
reliable clips and such but still....

It's been a while since I've played The Company but it seems like I remember they did
one of the best jobs around w the porn they used.

Anywho
Cheers

well, at least the drawn ver pic is consistent.. and the "model" is much better than random pornstar.. it been a long time since i played this game too.. there used to be chapter 1 drawn ver here.. was checking if there is any update on the drawn ver.. but it seems to be removed

Just sharing my findings here. Dom John route seems to be bugged. After submitting to Tasha multiple times in lift and also when she is fucking Penny, nothing happening. As per Wiki I should have gotten to next stage in evening soon. But even after 3 weeks of game time nothing happening.

It is a good branch which I missed in my previous play through but it's quite sad that it's bugged or so. Anyways maybe problem lies with my MC who has become sissy a trans sissy anyways. Good branch but Diana events not starting, or they were removed as I was not able to find them too

Not a huge surprise, but I'm still looking forward to the dev's next game.

Conceptually I like her releasing the source code for the company but also I'm certain nothing's gonna be done with it.

We have a few people on the Discord already digging in. Fingers crossed! But in case people need a quick TLDR;

-The Company is On Hold until 2026
-2024 was a shit show for Westane and it started to affect the writing. DomJohn ending how it did was not the goal but it was clear that Westane was burnt out and The Company was suffering for it
-SourceCode for The Company is now Public. Mod, edit, created, go nuts!
-Brothel in the Woods is the new game but has The Company DNA in it.
-BiTW is mainly there to get Westane's love of writing and also to get something new out and about as The Company is planned to return in 2026.
-BiTW has Three Image Packs built in (AI, Hentai, and Live Action)
-More focused on stuff like The Pit but there are 6 characters to romance, enjoy, and further the goal of growing out a Brothel
-Nothing is set in stone but Transformation, more identity, etc will be looked at after BiTW leaves Alpha
-Brothel in The Woods launches with 1 hour of content. Pretty hefty and completely free within the Alpha Phase

it'll have it's own page. Westane will reach out to the mods for the page after this weekend so the build isn't entirely busted on release to the f95 public. His Patrons, Supporters, and discord followers have it now.

It's too bad after 7 years the game will likely end up with an abandoned tag instead of a complete tag. I get the desire to try a different type of game. 7 years of your life on one game could definitely cause some burnout. Resource gathering is becoming quite the thing in adult games.

Westane seems very adamant that The Company will be finished in 2026. but a long year long break is necessary since DomJohn's ending was the clear sign that the writing was already taking a dive. This could end up saving TC instead of forcing out a shit ending and letting it be the finale
