Temporary Pause for RoyalCandy

Hey everyone,

I hope you're all doing well. I wanted to share some news that I received this past Saturday, which has had a big impact on my life and made me reconsider my priorities. After much thought, I’ve made the difficult decision to pause all activities related to RoyalCandy for the time being.

This wasn’t an easy choice for me, especially considering how much your support has meant in helping me live my dream of becoming a game developer and achieving financial stability. I’m incredibly grateful to you all for making that possible, and it’s tough to step away from something I’ve worked so hard on. But right now, this is the best decision I can make.

While I’ve always aimed to be open and honest with you, I can’t go into details about what’s going on personally. What I can do is pause all billings, so no one will be charged moving forward. It wouldn’t feel right to continue accepting payments without being able to deliver the work you expect, like some others might do in similar situations.

Thank you so much for the past seven years. It’s been an absolute pleasure being part of this community, and I’m deeply grateful for your support. I’m not sure when, or if, I’ll be back, but for now, I have to say goodbye.

Take care,
Jason

Jason, Wish you the best on your next en-devour, but is there any chance you would hand your project off if you ultimately do not plan on returning? Thanks, for all your hard work and effort.

Dear Jason, I wish you all the best in your life! I hope everything will be good for you very soon. I just wanted to tell you, your game was the best one and I stop playing Adult games started from this year and was checking the status only of your game. Now I see it as another sign to stop. Everything is happening on purpose. All my thoughts and prays are with you.

Obviously pausing was the ethical thing to do. ... But I want to buy the current version! Does Royal Candy / Jason have an account on a marketplace site?

So you are taking the title of your game to the next level, right? No more money for you ;) . But bad jokes aside, it honors you to make a clear cut and not mild us with quiet disappearing or even delaying everything. If you will not continue with this game, but still find some free time in the next few years, maybe consider to do at least one or two more update to wrap up your game somehow. This good game deserves it :) . But yeah, there are things more important than money or games. Stay well, dude. I hope your problems will get away soon or at least stay bearable.

You have created an awesome game in No More Money Dev. I’m very sad to hear your news and I wish none but the best to you moving forward. Take care of yourself Dev and hopefully all of us RC supporters will get the chance to hear from you again.

Sad news, but that's life. I hope everything goes as smoothly as possible. Do what you have to. And if this game still brings you joy, may you one day work on it again. But that's by managing to orchestrate what you need to do in your personal life. I don't know you personally, but it's good to have played your games. I hope you're happy and have peace and quiet.

It's a shame you have to leave, but real life comes first, although I wish you could finish this chapter of NMM, it could be "one last job", I would have liked to see Lisa again. Good luck in everything friend.

Hi Jason! I want to start by saying that I really admire your transparency and honesty in sharing this news with the community. It is not easy to make a decision like this, especially when you have dedicated so much time, effort and passion to RoyalCandy. The fact that you have prioritised your personal well-being and made this decision with such care and consideration for your fans speaks volumes about your integrity as a creator. I want to thank you for all the incredible work you have shared with us over the past seven years. You have created something special, and not just in terms of game development, but also in the way you have built a community that supports and values you. That's something you don't forget. I understand that you can't share details about what you're going through, but I want you to know that this community is here for you, in good times and bad. Take the time you need to take care of yourself and whatever you are facing. Your health and well-being are the most important thing. I hope that, in the future, you will find the path that is best for you, whether you decide to return to RoyalCandy or explore new opportunities. Whatever it is, I'm sure you'll do it with the same dedication and creativity you've shown us so far. Thanks for everything, Jason. I wish you all the best in this new chapter of your life, take care of yourself and I hope better times will come for you soon!

Aw... I'm sorry to hear the news man. I've enjoyed NMM quite a bit. I was really looking forward to the rest of it. But I appreciate your honesty. You've been one of the most communicative and disciplined AVN devs we've had. You do great work. You've made the money we've spent worth it. I hope things get better for you. I can only imagine whatever news you've gotten must be pretty bad. So I hope it's something you can recover well from and come back stronger. You take care too man, hope to hear from you again.
