Dev rant #2 - Survival mode: Life

HI, I'm new to the party. Bought here by some amusing youtube content. Sorry to hear you are going through a tough time. Make sure you deal with your challenges 1st. In the long run putting yourself 1st will benefit everyone.

Hey, there are generally crashes of this game and I sent them here LoginId:445d7d7748041b5f617961908d230c9f EpicAccountId:01179c20ab0f45e5bee05847dc13274e Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x000002271ac25669 AdvancedLocomotionSystemV_Win64_Shipping!FBinkAudioInfo::GetFrameSize() AdvancedLocomotionSystemV_Win64_Shipping!IStreamedCompressedInfo::DecompressToPCMBuffer() AdvancedLocomotionSystemV_Win64_Shipping!IStreamedCompressedInfo::StreamCompressedData() AdvancedLocomotionSystemV_Win64_Shipping!Audio::FAsyncDecodeWorker::DoWork() AdvancedLocomotionSystemV_Win64_Shipping!FAsyncTaskBase::DoThreadedWork() AdvancedLocomotionSystemV_Win64_Shipping!FQueuedThread::Run() AdvancedLocomotionSystemV_Win64_Shipping!FRunnableThreadWin::Run()

I'm probably a lot older than you. I had a lot of relationships before meeting my wife. Some went longer than they should have even though I knew that they weren't the right person for me, but it was comfortable staying in a bad relationship vs. being alone. Eventually I realized it was unhealthy and broke up. It's hard to do, but it's more important to protect yourself and not compromise for less than you deserve. No human is perfect, but there is no reason to stay with someone that doesn't support you fully. Also one thing to remember, but is hard to put into practice is to ask yourself, "Am I the person I'm looking for, is looking for?" That can be a hard thing to accept, but maybe you're not right for the one you think you like. Don't force it.

Someone get this man some magazines, cigarettes and Rubik's cubes!! For real though take care of yourself Rab-bit! Any haters making demands of you for this game need to remember you're one guy and you have a complex life just like the rest of us. Hang in there bud!

I love it here keep up the amazing work and can’t wait for more to come

Take all the time u need. Just wanna know if u still kickin' and good

a support message for you game which i like a lot

hadi artık iyi ol ve haber ver başla güçlü kal

Do yourself a huge favor with jiggle physics and look up generative jiggle physics. Its a mod for vrchat someone made that uses a polygon mesh instead of bone to make things jiggle. It looks so much smoother, and allows you to pick zones of the body that jiggle. So you can make jeans have a smaller zone to jiggle less or sweats have a larger mesh to jiggle.

Waiting for news. Don't get sick and be strong. We are with you.

any updates

can you not pay a one time fee for the key to play?

The game is very good, but for most of the world's population it is not very well optimized, my configuration is an i5 10th gen, 24gb RAM, GTX 1650 ti and the game does NOT run well

take you're time, the game is great!

Women come and go dude. It's all good. You're young. Hearts get broken and then you meet someone when you least expect it. Just don't let the same one break your heart twice. Get out there. Get on some apps. Start talking to other people. Move on. Live life. Go to Tijuana. Do some coke at the Hong Kong Club. Bang some strippers. Don't beat yourself up over one woman. Many MANY out there.

What is going on with the project? please tell us it hasnt been abandoned because the game is awesome.. just havent seen anything new about it!

I hope you are well, and looking forward to your progress.

herkes güncelleme bekliyo artık gelmesi lazım

Is this now becoming Abandonware?

Hey Rab-Bit, i've been following your project for a long time, from your discord and your post here... You just answere me back on discord 2 days ago, about NEWS on the rabbits IA, suddenly today i noticed i've been removed from the server and i cant enter anymore... did you MODDER casually banned me? I mean, i dont bother anyone xD what's the reason for this sudden perma ban? i dont even talk much in the server, i also had and active post on the "suggestions" I hope you will read this message and clarify me what happened, in any cases, best of the luck, your work Rock! Much love <3

"From a lore perspective, I plan to add a new need, to pee. (I know that for many this is a fetish, I think you will be happy about this) {No poop}" If you won't deficate (constipation), your recycled food will stuck in guts and will rotte because microfloura live processess in guts. It's will bloat your belly and will lead to pain until you not will deficate. Other wise big stinky belly explosion. It's not fantasy, it's a life. P.s: Come on! In MMORPG "Scum" or ARK: Survival Evolve this is existing and everyon fine with that. So what the problem for you to make this in your game? Because I don't getting this.

Sorry to hear what you're going through, but you're treating your community like a free piggy bank. 17694 members on Patreon alone, let's assume everyone is at the $4 range, meaning you're making over $60,000 a month - can you not hire some developers and a community manager? I don't want to sound like an asshole. I want you and the game and the community to thrive, but from what I'm seeing it's going the opposite direction

Life is tough, I'm not going to sugar coat it. But, know this, keep your mind on the now. Life always throws something at us to make us question things. You can't cave in, you can't dwell on the past. You can only learn from it and push forward. Hardships are a tough time, but you have a HUGE community behind you. Don't be afraid to speak out and seek help. Love Ya Brother. P.S. You're doing a great job and you'll pull through. Take your time and keep yourself healthy. Nothing is worth losing your health over.

Small consolation, but time heals pretty much everything.

加油，我也同样失恋很久了，一直持续至今。你的作品在我失恋期间给了我莫大帮助，希望你快振作起来，恢复健康。

Hopefully you get better mister i have also a rough situation but ill keep going also love the game so far

I'm a comic book artist, and my first year in which that was my only job I had a massive mental breakdown. I was able to keep working on my comic somehow, but it took me two years to get some what back to normal. The brain can be a real bastard sometimes.

This Game is absolutely awesome so far! Definitely looks promising and I can't wait for an update. One thing that bothers me is when creating Anna in a new game she's extremely dirty... I can't tell what I'm doing half the time when changing appearances. Maybe clean her up just a lil or semi-clean for better details. Overall Thank you so much for hard work (5 yrs!), I personally know how hard game development is. By the way I feel your pain from my own experiences so I can relate. I'm sorry you're going through a rough time right now but just try to keep your head held up high, you will get through it all bro.

Hey there bud. I lost a 7 year relationship that broke me. I developed a drinking problem. Became a nervous wreck etc.. I thought my life was over. I started working on my mental health and life. I escaped a toxic house, got a modern car (the one I had was 20 years old), moved across my state and started a job making nearly 3x what I was before. Long story short, what can seem like the end is just the beginning of something new. It’s ok to be sad and miss what was but at the end of the day tomorrow is coming whether you want it to or not. Be there to take a step forward in your life so you can be proud of the progress when you look back.

Awesome content and im sorry to hear that, hope you find your happiness and are able to heal. Appreciate all you do

Hey, Rab-bit. Your game became a serious contender in 2025—ever since YouTubers found it, a lot of people started believing in its potential. Now it’s time to step up. Stop flying solo: build a team, get organized, and deliver updates with more consistency and clarity. We get it—real life is tough. But since January, there’s a whole community rooting for you and waiting for real progress. You don’t have to show your face. Just show results. Think big. Grow for real. The time is now.

My friend loaded his game and everything he had equiped just desappeard. Everything else is ok but most of the important/hard to get things were equiped. Is that anyway to get everything back?

How's it been going? this sounds like a huge update, I hope you've been doing alright.

I am so so sorry to hear that Rab-Bit. My heart goes out to you. breakups are hard to cope with.

Hoping you recover and are feeling better. Hyped for future updates but 100% worry about health first. Any plans on monster/parasite nsfw, or is it mostly just going to be ironing out the more survival aspect. Came for the horny but stayed for the amazing game depth. Always curious though.

Sometimes you get lowered then you ever have been, To rise taller than you ever were. It’s not over yet. You’re not done.

everything is going to be okay it fades with time just don't remain stagnate you got this bro

I enjoy your game so much. I hope you get better. As a indie dev myself I understand the difficulty in juggling life and your project at the same time. Your health and well-being comes first. Get well soon.

okay, I will try my best to keep it simple. I know it sucks, it can be an complete cut off and it can absolutely sting. Your experience is valid. If anyone tells you to "get over it." -- Then you need to understand that they are either trying to help and don't have an answer or are simply apathetic. Now, hear me out. In some strange way, the break up did you a favor. Reason is because you are so much better off having it end instead of trying to brute force a way through it. So much more damage is done from people who force their way through things thinking it will get better. Even with couples who communicate, because they may not be communicating correctly. So it can be a helpful frame to put in as "This person had enough respect for me and themselves to break up with me." -- Now, I may not know your case so I am trying to give you a very basic answer in hopes that it helps Breakups are the worst pain in our lives because they can be a severance of attachment. The same feelings can be felt when somebody you care about dies, because it is a cut off. You could also experience complex grief which is.... well, complex... it can be various ways you process this painful experience and it can show up in ways like anger, going to the gym, or even wild cases where you try your best to prove yourself to others, your ex, or in some worse cases, an abuser! Maybe seek some therapy if you can! I wish you the best. Use this opportunity to take care of yourself. You can't make the old relationship come back, you cannot make it better. However, you can make yourself better so that the next relationship you get into will be even more magical. I wish you the best! Don't think too hard on the past. Only use the past to better who are now. Don't use the past to judge who you are, it robs you the time and opportunity to become stronger.

I hope everything you're going through resolves as quickly as possible. I thought all of this would remain dormant, but I'm so glad this project is still going, and I really appreciate you keeping us informed of what's happening. I truly send you a lot of encouragement and a big hug. There are other creators who remain inactive and don't say anything; I hate that, but you don't. You always keep us informed, and that shows a lot about you and the appreciation you have for us. I'm so glad to have discovered your Patreon and this wonderful project. Again, thank you so much for the effort you're making, and keep it up. Sorry for my English, I hope it was understood as best as possible.

Chin up. the pain will pass. hope you feel happy sooner than later. when you leave one room you enter another. keep moving to you feel at peace.

im looking foreword to the traders and the need to pee, yes im one of the guys that likes that

I hope you’re doing well, few free to take whatever time you need. This game looks so awesome but your mental health is still important :)

I'm sorry to hear this sometimes we don't know who people are until they make you do horrible things i don't think anyone should sleep on a couch from the message your a good heart and you deserve more, be easy your a great content maker

Life brings us challenges every now and then. That is called living. They come in different ways and events. Like breakups. One friend told me after my first break up that embrace the pain and the feeling. It hurts but it makes you feel alive. You feel. Also don’t hold back on your relationships. Then there won’t be any room for ifs and buts. And if you fall, you fall with your boots on. “Don’t tip toe true life just to end up safely to death.” Start picking yourself up by going back to the basics. Things that you can control. Listen to good music and eat good food. And remember to talk about the things that hurt you. It helps ENOURMOUSLY. Trust me. You are the most important person in your life. Keep that in mind. There is a well-known saying: “Everything works out until the end. If not. It is not the end.”

pray to god man may he forgive our sins dont take your life for granted

我不太會安慰朋友 但你的狀況我已經歷過不只一次 我想說的是 這才是人生的成長 每一次的成長都讓人更加強大 而我們要做的 就是 擁有的時候珍惜 分離的時候放下

The only big project I can relate was my graduation Thesis and there were weeks and even months that couldn't write more than sentence so I focused on other things. I can't relate to a break up because prefer to be single (I know you can have a falling out with friends too but haven't experienced that) life is way easier this way but I have to suffer the death of my grandfather that I was really close to him I would visit him at least three times a week to just hang out and there are even times when I forgot and say I can't wait to share this with grandpa and then come back to reality and he is no longer here.

Hey bro You know what? You’re creating more than just a game. You’re building a world people want to return to – not just for the mechanics, but for the heart you pour into it. Breakups hurt like hell. It feels like someone ripped out a piece of your soul and left an echo behind. But here’s the thing: if you can create something this alive out of pixels, that means there’s a massive strength inside you. And even though that pain is crushing now, one day it’ll become fuel. That kind of sadness isn’t an ending – it’s a restart. The hardest bosses show up right before the biggest level-ups. You’re not alone. Your players aren’t just spectators – we’re your party. And your party is waiting for you to get back on your feet, even if right now you’re just resting by the campfire. The people moved by your work are here – not just for the game, but for you as a creator and as a person. Thank you for not giving up. Your honesty is building something far bigger than any loot system – it’s building a community. Hang in there. We’re here. We believe in you. And seriously – it will get better. Even if you don’t believe it yet.

We all appreciate your efforts and dedication to this project! Health is always priority number one and I'm sure all your Patrons and friends will absolutely understand. Stay strong my friend and hope all your surgeries go flawlessly.

I feel you brother, your health should always come first. When you feel okay again, that’s when you pick up your project. Take some time to breathe and land in the situation. We will be here for you, we all appreciate what you’re doing and we will wait for you. 💪💪 If you ever want to reach out even for a drunk chat to just rant about how awful things are, drop me a line. Let’s “drunk rant” together 😅

Thank you for the update, dear Rabbit. Please know that you have my full support. You are holding something truly remarkable, and I believe it can only truly flourish when you are once again able to pour your essence and soul into it. You need time to heal and rebuild yourself — going through a separation is always challenging, and it requires time. So take the time you need, and know that I am here if you ever feel the need to talk. This project is a reflection of who you are. I would much rather wait longer and see your spirit and personal touch shine through in what comes next, than see something rushed and lacking the passion that defines your work.

Wishing you the best in your recovery from the stresses and turmoil of life. Just remember, it doesn't matter how many times you get knocked down. It just matters that you keep getting back up.

Очень все знакомо,но от меня ушли после операций! сути это не меняет,самое главное что этот человек ушел вовремя и не пил твою кровь и нервы наслаждаясь когда тебе плохо! такие люди не должны быть рядом и время все поставит на свои места,а мы поддержим и подождем замечательный проект! еще одно что хочется добавить это уже касается игры! развивайте общение Анны с игроком это очень отличная идея и по поводу (туалета) у всех свои интересы, но вот как для меня эта функция не особо интересна, а вот развитие отношений с выжившими и в сексуальном плане это уже для меня интереснее! в остальном здоровье на первом плане и оно твое, а не человека который ушел да и пусть идет! удачи и ждем обновлений))

Hey, it's ok to step back when you need to. You e put out something great so far, and I've enjoyed it. Get better, and good luck on the surgeries.

totally understand. You have to care for yourself first. we will be here when you are ready, please do not rush yourself.

Parasite network... all having a purpose in the world. That sounds very interesting tbh, very much looking forward to what you are cooking up there. The urination, not my kink, but fits well into the game. As i have played your game for the first time now a few words of what i appreciate about it: Anna talking to you (the parasite) is pretty fun. I think there could be a funny relationship built between them (maybe depending on some player choices?). Theres also a beautiful sense of nature in the apocalyptic setting which works really well in my opinion. The basebuilding/bushcrafting is pretty good too, had lots of fun building savepoints and mini bases. Exploration has been the most fun tho, even tho i lack a gasmask to venture into radiation zones rn. Last but not least. I think everyone can relate to what you are going through, so just, take care. and good luck with your surgeries

Looking forward to your next update, take your time and heal. Make sure to look after yourself :)

So sad that you're having a hard time, but glad you're feeling better. Adding the need to pee sounds really exciting, very odd and I like that, the fact that you also have thoughts on adding people who can give a quest will raise the game even further, very fun!

My last Breakup was also pretty rough, sleeping on the couch and all. So i feel ya, so sorry to hear that you have to go through such an awful situation. Glad to hear that you are able to pick yourself up from that, and go on. Might mean not much, but you have my full support in it and the continuously ongoing development of the Game. Dont let Life get you down, you got this. 💖

My last breakup was pretty rough, too. I bought an old rusted out 82' Honda CM250 to distract myself from myself. Better to take a machine apart than my own character. In hindsight, that was a pretty irresponsible form of breakup therapy, but man was it effective. Taught myself how to rebuild a carburetor, how to weld (poorly), how to ride, and somehow, how to deal with loss. It hurt when it was stollen right our of my driveway, but I'm grateful for my time with it and understand that it was probably bad for my longevity anyway.

Hang in there... break ups suck!!! Glad you are staring to feel better!!! you got this!!!

Take your time boss. Glad to hear you're doing better. Thank you for your transparency and much love to you.

Ахуенные историй. Хирургии может шоб исправить криворукость? это я роуст так, любя.

Sometimes the emotional pressure men are expected to silently withstand is so heavy it is hard to even breathe. It’s good that you talk about it, it’s needed. We are the ones here to support you, so don’t hesitate. Take all the time you need to care for yourself my friend.

Understandable. Stay strong. Now is the time to think of yourself and your health. Good luck with the surgeries.

Once I joined the club of the heartbroken and know that's not a place that I like. You have my deepest sympathy and I really hope that your surgery will go well. To have a healthy body you need a healthy mind. I didn't expect something like that could happen to you, but sometimes it comes without warning. Maybe this will open a door to a even better life with an even better girlfriend for you. In these moments I don't care about updates, but about the guy with his little game project that I really enjoy.

glad to hear from you, just always take care of yourself first, wish you good health and luck on your surgeries.

Completely understandable... feel better soon 👍☺️

i have been thru that too, but as experience even if u dont see it now means that will only get better, u will get on your feet again and stay stronger than ever, we love u and what you do for everyone, stay up king stay safe and keep yourself warm, only better days await on the future we are all with you in your feelings ❤️‍🩹

estoy con tigo hermano, no estas solo, te poyamos todos

Hey, thank you for being so open about what you're going through. It takes real courage to share something this personal and vulnerable. Breakups are brutal, especially when you truly cared about someone. The fact that you're sleeping in your own bed again and slowly finding your way back to yourself sounds like an important first step. Take all the time you need - both for emotional healing and for your upcoming surgeries. What you're working on with the project sounds incredibly thoughtful and exciting. But right now, you're more important than any update. We're here and waiting patiently because we believe in you and your project. Best of luck with the surgeries, and take all the rest you need. You've got this! 💪

Sorry to hear of the struggles. Divorce 15 yrs ago was rough. But I found someone new 14 years ago ;) Going strong and happilyer married again. Plenty of fish 🐟 🐠 hehe cheers and thanks for your update, love the work you constantly add to the game and agree as most people say here that your one of the most active Devs here on patreon. Deserve a break every now and again ;) Stay strong buddy you'll get through it.

You have consistently released the biggest and most frequent updates of any Patreon developer so I think a month off here and again to take care of yourself is more than fair.

Have beeing there dude. 6 years relationship, we started to live together. And then, didnt work. Things that happen in life. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Breakups like that can be rough, and taking the time you need to heal is not only okay, it is essential. Im glad to hear you’re beginning to feel a little better and finding your footing again. Don’t feel pressured about updates. Your well-being comes first, always. As the soldiers shouts ¨keep moving soldier!¨ Not only that aplly in the military but also to rest of the people. Hope you are having a nice day, cheers dude!

shiat.... so bad to hear, dude... I'm exactly right now in a double breack up with two different people they don't know each other but did the same to me. long story short, they dropped me like a stone down a cliff. but the main thing is: i feel how strong it makes me with the right and true persons in my life. they understand me and have understanding how i act right now. i take my time. i can call them my family. i hope here are some right words for you from all of us that'll help you through your cruel time. don't rush anything. i love your game. because of that, and knowing you creating a damn good game. (i think some parts are greater than AAA Titles.) i prefer to wait longer for a better game, than have a bad game right now. and your health is more important than anything. physically AND mentally. get healthy again first. than you continue other things ❤️

we are here for you for good you can't escape <3

Self-care FTW, Bit. We'll still be here when you recover. Current updates slated for the next patch or so look amazing!

Hey, I'm sorry to hear about the break up, I hope you find the time you need to heal and find a new strength to face a better tomorrow :)

I hope you will feel better soooon

Take your time friend and recover. This can be devastating. I had a previous partner break up with me 3-days before our wedding. It was hell and took a serious toll on me. It took a few months to pull myself back up. Just take each day one at a time and focus on yourself and what makes you happy. Also, as someone that has been in the enterprise software development space for over 20-year and has gone through burnout. I can't stress enough the importance of taking time to take care of yourself. Development can be healing, but don't let it be a distraction from your self-care. We're here to support you no matter how long it takes.

I'm just a random player that found your game thorough Steam, joined your community. I enjoy your game and work, and I decided to support you for a mere 3 months even though I was a broke student, lol. I don't know what you had in your relationship that ultimately led you to go thorough a breakup but I think I can say we all went thorough something similar. Since you've been real with us, I'll be real with you too. I had a relationship once. First "proper" relationship. I was even broker back then, but I was still happy. Our relationship held for 2 years. I though I had found the one. On long distance we would play games. I would teach her. She would play good. We would have ecstatic moments. We'd have a lot of fights too. We were both young adults with very little experience in relationships. Looking back on it I was also in the wrong a lot of times. She didn't have a lot of friends, so even when her friends were calling me no-good and she should break up with me, I said "they're good friends, they're thinking of you, of whats best for you." She even lost those same friends because of her badmouthing, but I would encourage her to gain those friends back. I lost childhood friends because of things that happened between her and them too. Alas, in the end, I broke up with her. I discovered that she has been very, very hateful to me behind my back. It kind of didnt surprise me, but actually reading, screenshot after screenshot, about what she told me, about the ill she wished upon me, just killed any sort of love I had for her. Now, almost 2 years after her, I've moved countries, I've had multiple jobs, (quadruple the pay I would've got back in my home country), I managed to move out with a new girlfriend I've met here, who is the loveliest, and we never fight. I feel like I found the one for real, because we can actually communicate. Of course there are times when we are stressed but we never take it out on each other. We are always there for each other. She's such a good partner that I almost feel like I don't deserve her. The reason I'm saying these things is, it gets better man. It always gets better. I'm still in my early 20s, but god damn I never thought I would be here, in my life, where I am right now. My lovely partner is sleeping right now, but, even though she is very easily scared of things, she would constantly watch me play your game. Even though she calls it a gooner shooter, she still respected the "realism" in the game. I hope, in the future, you will find someone, and have fun doing anything and everything, together.

Right now, you need to embrace solitude. Breathe. Sometimes, it can take a long time to recover your health. Be mindful and patient. Sleep well, follow doctor’s instructions. Then you can get to work.

Take your time, for what i see all here are in the best intention to cheer you up. Hoping for more interesting things to come to your game. Be well soon!

hey bro take it easy i know is hard some time but keep your head up and keep doing what you love to do respect for you and the amazing game you created and keep working hard on it get some rest and dont rush your self out of the blue ^^

Dude, yeah I feel you. In my line of work, it is known that boys and men are way more emotional and sentimental than women and girls. When we bond, it is flesh and blood almost. When the bond breaks, it hurts like hell and beyond. But we men learn and we learn faster than women, somehow. I also recently split with my girl, I thought we would last forever, but after 9 years, gone! It is ok. You have our support through your creation. I have not supported a game like yours. Awesome baby from you. greetings from holland.

I went through a very tough time in my life a couple years ago (medical). Still dealing with it to this day even though it causes me depression. Survival games is what I love to play, so games like yours, helps me escape and I thank you tremendously for your work. We're all human and we all deal with human things, no one is exempt. Take care of yourself first and foremost and we will all be here patiently waiting. ♥️

All the best mate :)

Breakups can be ugly, however I’ve always seen them as an opportunity to grow and find myself and connect with myself again. Hopefully you have a peaceful recovery and take your time!

No worries, mate. Sorry to hear about your ordeal. As someone who suffered multiple breakups, I can imagine what you're getting through. Take all the time you need for your mental health. It's never easy, but we got no chance but to carry on. Life is like a train, people come in to your life or leave it. But it carries on.

All the best to you Bit, know that we are all standing behind you. Also the Update sounds super promising. Can't wait!

Take your time, man. Health is way more important. I hope you recover soon!

As someone who has also been through s rough break up. There is no quick fix or cure and each person will have different times for the healing process. The best advice i can offer is the same advice I was given. Take it one day at a time and look at the small victories you claim each and everyday, rather than looking at how far you still have to go.

Thank you for the update Bit! Just know that this community truly cares about you and this project. Take as much time as you need and I’m sure that all of us Parasites will continue giving our on going support. ❤️❤️🐇🐐

Totally understand a breakup and how hard it is after! I’m sure we all do! Wish you nothing but a fast healing process, a new partner and a successful surgery! Update sounds amazing honestly
