Try and not freak out or stress too much about the next release. Remember why you are doing this. It's not supposed to be a chore that gives you ulcers or pain. The scope of this project is really, really big so try and take it a little bit at a time. Don't worry about expectations or deadlines and pressure. We know you're doing your best. <3

Dorago

I could get used to so many posts from you ^^ keep up the good work, I look forward for more news from you :)

DragonFire

It's always great to hear your voice Master Akabur, though it does sound stressed or sad in this video? *concerned expression* As JessieTR said above, we know you do your absolute best, don't worry too much about deadlines, remember to have fun, smell the flowers, admire the sky, light, sun and stars. Reclaim your passion in your own pace, then the work will not be a burden, but a joy to create. I must say, your work station is incredible clean and well organized, I wish just one part of my apartment would be so neat! Not often I've come across a well organized genius! ;-)

На здоровье и творческих успехов! :)

Also people your comments may also be stressing him out. What I mean by that is over expectations for this next release. He is in essence one person and his work is great but needs time. So let's lighten up on the requests and let him take a breather. I'm not expecting to be blown to the moon on this next update but I'm old enough to know it will in time. So AKABUR next post should be you relaxing or a vacation pick outside : ) also haven't asked you a personal question for awhile... so when were you born date or year is fine. Don't feel obligated to answer either.

Christian

Naw gosh, Akabur! We love you :D

Curnan

I'm so glad to see that your apartment looks nice and you're able to live a decent life now. I remember videos from years ago, like with the apartment that had the fire, and it's great to see that your passion and hard work have done so much and made a noticeable impact in your life. Thanks for the update, man, I look forward to hearing more from you soon.

Nikraria

Nice place to work man, compare to your clean organized table, mine is a fucking mess xD I'm so glad to see you are using the mug! and it's true what some people noticed too, you talked a little bit stressed, and I think everyone understand your work needs time, and if someone don't understand it ... then to HELL with them.

Rwede

Thank you for your works :D Can't stress this enough, but : go at your own pace. Take care :)

2026-09-07 15:00 Cool! I'd also like to see a sneak peek of how your daily process works. That would be really cool. But of course, if you're only comfortable showing that to us. :D Enjoy your day, Akabur!

2026-09-07 15:00 Super shout out ^_^ good to hear from you. So how's the gym feeling? You should try to get some cardio in very important for the jobs that have you in one place for a long time. Don't forget to stretch before and after working. You got some hands of gold keep them & yourself healthy and it will show in your work which is an extension of you. Thank you on behalf of everyone here. Michael.

I flipping love these but I cant watch it now I WILL COMMENT AGAIN AS SOON AS I SEE IT!!!! THANK YOU FOR THE RAPID FIRE POSTS LATELY! (I wanted to comment on those as well but am in a weird situation right now heh.) but my awesome comments will make a triumphant return soon ^^

NinjaCat13

seems you changed your laptop from acer to msi,eh, years ago...

slam

AKOBEL

Akabur did you change your laptop ?

MANITU Games

Isn't it references for school-girl costume? ┬┴┬┴┤ ͜ʖ ͡°) ├┬┴┬┴

Dragneeel

Proof of Life is not even sarcastic, It's like "It is The only proof that I know you still exist". Because your an very slient (and productive) Guy in the internet compared to everybody

Michael woods

Pow! Happy 150th to all it applies.

Michael woods

Also not liking the community over on SU.... they seem to think AKABURs stuff is crap. WTF are they playing? They do realise he's doing it by himself right. AKABUR I do respect what your doing very much so. But do you think it's time to add another person to your production? Not trying to push you. It's just I'm sick and tired of listening to people criticizing you in the way they do. F them and their not understanding of how hard producing this game is for one person. Also is it possible for you to send me the PT game file? Or can it be done with the downloaded version? I'd like to start adding to it and need somewhere to start. (With your permission of course)

akabur

Thank you for saying this, even though I know all that myself I think... There is a reason why artists and writers tend to be broody and moody and stuff... I am not complaining though. Despite all, I am still doing what I want and I have you guys to support me. Honestly I am very lucky I think. Now I need to make sure that the next big update for "SC34" is as good as I can possibly make it and then maybe I will be happy. Like for a day or two XD. Heh...

James

I have a saying in my language " trees that bear fruit get stoned" which means Everything thats good will always get hate and if i know Akabur like I think I do.. Me, dorago, ace, red unit, tuuku, Banana, you, all of US ( I cant name everyone lmao ) are more than enough for him. not to mention he has xal and dahr and always Lyk to help him out. So personally I think you shouldnt worry,,, If Akabur really needs help he'll find it somehow. someway

James

Just finished the Vid and as promised Im here to comment ^^. you always put a smile on my face. I dont want to write too much so Ill keep it short and say Thanks! and dont forget to rest! ^^

Dinker

Michael, as far as I know Akabur doesn't officially support modding. That said he's not a dick and all of the files are non-encrypted so if you do the work to find out how to unpack them yourself. If you can't get that far, well you probably shouldn't be trying to do updates and mods to the game. :)

Michael woods

I know how switch ren'py to developer and then import the file. Add extra assets into the appropriate parts of the game add diolauge and trigger events. Took me 10 minutes to figure it out. And yes I know AKABUR is an open guy. But I don't ever start things without asking first. Cause I'm not a dick. The post was more for another person who has been doing so already and has some experience useing ren'py as I have a very minimal amount. So a learning curve is going to be there. AKABUR himself said he had help with learning the programming. But thanks James for the reinforcement your right. It's just I don't see lyk and the others behind the scenes but the small group of constant supporters you listed is absolutely true thanks man.

Percy_Jackson26

Let's not forget the American saying, " If you got haters, you must be doing something right". All the great creators in this world will always have haters. No matter what you are looking at. All that matters are the supporters.

akabur

OK, this turned into a rather lengthy discussion, so I better reply sooner rather then later. Here it comes. @Michael woods: I don't know what "SU" stands for but from the sound of it it's probably for the best. As for "add another person to your production", all I can tell you is: I'll think about it. Also you should know that generally I don't like people modding my shit. Mostly because the modded version retain my name on when the content has been changed by someone else, so you should not expect any help from me on that front. But like Dinker said, the files are not encoded. Obviously I can't tell you what to do, but there will be no discussions of any modding here or on my forum. If I ever see a mod that worth my time and the time for my followers I will promote it personally. But it's been years an all I see still is pitiful instant gratification attempts. @James. The true words were never spoken. Thank you for being awesome and having healthy outlook on things. You rock, man. And that saying about the tree is so spot on it's a bit sad. @percy Jackson: Thanks man. This also brings to mind that saying about video games: "If video games taught me anything is that if you I keep encountering enemies on you my way - I am moving in the right direction". (I don't remember it word to word, but it sounded something like that, yes :). Anyway, thank you for your support man. @Asmodean Mage: And finally somebody comes in and speaks the simple truth. Thanks man. :)

Michael woods

Yea I'm not going to mod for what you said above totally understand that. That's why I haven't attempted it months ago as I would be no different than some others. Also I would never bother you for help in that regard as that would be ridiculous of anyone to do so. I just went on a bit of a rant because of some of the things said. Which were not good btw. Again don't feel obligated in any way to adding stuff or people because of what I say. Everything I say isn't always worded the way I mean it to be (probably my poor schooling) but rest assured I'm not here to worry you about the modding. It's not going to happen (ever) well maybe for personal use. Sorry for the stress not what I was intending, I just want you to keep rocken that content and stay cool and collected. As Asmodean said I usually say F the noise but one shit In particular was very rude to not only me but you and everyone else here (mentioned names) and I got fed up.

akabur

Heh... I hope I did not came of as an asshole lashing out at a fan for no reason. You got to understand my view on modding though. I take my work very seriously and personally. Imagine if I was writing a book for example and after I published it some random people would just take it and rip out random pages and re-write some of them and after that re-publish the book. And if that was not bad enough they would leave my name on it, my cover, everything. And on top of that they rarely put any real effort into it. It's one thing to get inspired and create a full-fledged sequel or at least a fanfic or something. All I see is random pages being added or re-written and it never leads anywhere ever...

Michael woods

Well how could anyone really make anything of your games. As soon as they added anything it would almost certainly be crap as your work is fantastic :) but that's not the kind of mods I have in mind mainly reusing your existing assets adding more dialogue and different colour to costumes. So essentially not ripping anything off just extending it as the assets are already in game (except dialogue)as you said just like a book fans write additions all the time. Authors often like them infact. But as you said they need to make an effort. Also don't worry about the lashing out it didn't feel like it.... (heh lashing not feeling it...) and it's there for everyone to see what you think on the matter and that's fine with me. I just hope I didn't offend you in any way that is the exact opposite of what I wanted I assure you. I just want you to grow and sometimes I can be a bit pushy (I've been told) but I'm not trying to be a dick. So if I cross a line just let me know and I'll stop. So just take my outburst of adding people just as a fan wanting more. What can I say I like your games maybe a bit too much.... but seriously just ignore what i say if you don't like it.

akabur

Sure, it's all good. By now I am just a bitter old man. I've seen so many shitty mods and so many shitty games that my sight is naturally clouded by all that SHIT! But nothing lasts forever and I know I will be proved wrong one day. I am looking forward to that day in fact.

Maybe that's just how I sound now. >>>I must say, your work station is incredible clean and well organized Is it? Dunno, I don't think I am a very neat person, but I don't like when there is too much stuff lying around I guess... Well, anyway, thank you for your support, DragonFire. Means a lot hearing you say those things.

Danlorn

Good to know you still alive, missed you Aka-san. Do you plan to do streams in nearest future?

akabur

I appreciate the sentiment, I REALLY do, but I don't think you need to start treating me like some special snowflake. Everyone here already doing their part by supporting me, and to be honest I almost never hear my patrons demanding anything. It's quite opposite in fact, you guys are supportive as fuck, so I can't complain. Whatever stress I have in my life it is my responsibility as a man to deal with it on my own, you guys doing your part by supporting me, your job is done here. But let me repeat myself: I appreciate the sentiment, Michael.

akabur

Yeah... I am so happy that I finally decided to move out from my old apartment. I hate myself for not doing it sooner. This new apartment is not perfect still but it's much better and much quieter, I can write my stories in peace now. A win for everyone I would say. ^^ (By the way, apartment with the fire was in a different city. Damn, now THAT was a shitty moment of my life...)

akabur

Gifted people are known to be not very organized, so your messy desk must be a sign of a genius, that's all. And yeah, mug was there by accident actually but I'm glad it was there. Yeah, I drink coffee from it every day. You rock, man :)

akabur

Maybe one day. Thank you for your kind words :)

akabur

Patience is indeed a virtue man. I'm happy I was able to teach you something, my dear pupil :) Yeah, I moved to new apartment, I just didn't feel like talk about it when it happened few months back...

akabur

The gym? It's alright... Past year I always feel very tired after, maybe I am getting older, or maybe I think to much about new quests and events for "SC34" during my routines... ^^ That is a sound advice about the cardio and the stretches. Thanks.

akabur

Dude, you better be not browsing my patreon post while having hot-monkey sex with some pretty girl or whatever. Weird situation...

akabur

Yeah... I said "couple years" in the video but it's actually been at least 3 years I think... :)

akabur

Never... Doing that would double the work for me actually.

akabur

Yes I did. Several years ago. I used to own a medium specs ACER before I got this beast by MSI.

akabur

Yeah, I know. I am trying to work on changing it though... trying... It's just communicating with you guys is super fun, but it is time consuming. Often I feel like I should get some work done instead of socializing with people. Even though socializing is important as well...

akabur

Thank you James. Your words of support is always appreciated. I use your support as fuel :)

akabur

Same to you, Danlorn. I was thinking about you the other day actually, remembering my streams and such. I hope you are doing well.

James

How did you know...... well, Youre the great AKABUR! of course you knew! ^^

James

I will try and retain from the hot monkey sex next time ^^

James

And I use your work as Fap Fuel, So we're even :D

Michael woods

That and the sexy toned ladies in there.... yes I just go to work out not to look at nice round asses... but I guess that's a good motivator to hit the gym right? I've gotten much more buff since I've been enjoying my time at my gym well I was never small. Was 210 when I was 18 6'2 now I'm around 260 6'6 and yes that's all muscle. your most likely tired from not being on a regular schedule or if you just started it will take some time (took my lazy ass a few months) I'm guessing I'm around your age so your not old I refuse to think otherwise. Also you've probably heard this before but a healthy diet and sleep schedule make a huge difference in how you feel afterwards. Don't forget to warm up and cool down either and find someone to work out with as you motivate each other to push more. You could ask that tight babe on the treadmill... I'd do it but I think I'd show up very late. Which reminds me of a joke." Go to the gym to get girls and end up getting more attention from guys asking questions or checking your muscles out" lol so true.

Buxta

Прости меня,но не затруднит тебя напомнить мне время релиза ,а то я вспышку проморгал!

Newman

Strenght! Really looking forward to the next release as everyone else, but happy to wait if it's as good as the previous one (as most of us) :)

Danlorn

That's too sweet, bro)) Hope you are doing cool too. But I still hope that you will stream someday soon, because I need my dose of interactive stuff with Aka.

george

Alive! alive! he is alive!

akabur

I'm Russian. Your deductive skills are impressive.

akabur

No forgiveness for you. And no release date either, you heathen.
