I will start this post by making a few statements :

So a quick recap.

Back in Late january of 2024, i had the idea of coming up with a quick visual novel for a game for the NEC PC-FX.

At the time, i had made a few tests with software rendering but concluded that without more knowledge of the system, that i couldn’t make games that would look better than either a PC Engine game or be very slow (as demonstrated by my port of nCraft or Worship Vector).

I was thinking of a few characters before i settled on these two because they looked very similar and could be easily generated.

Some of you had suspicious but yes, the pictures were AI generated with Stable Diffusion 1.5 with a custom LORA. Looking back at it, i can’t help but cringe at the quality of these but somehow this was good enough to fool people.

I made up a plot that was similar to games that you would typically find on the PC-98 and PC-FX (and yes, some of these games do include sexual assault), except that i would skip portions like Mahjong or whatever, because quite frankly, no one likes to have the sex scenes locked behind a difficult game of Mahjong or whatever.

Anyway, i will spare you the technical details about actually making the game because for the most part it’s nothing special (except for the fact there’s few PC-FX homebrew games) but i did learn a lot about the system itself.

Besides, people on the PC-FX and PC-98 are playing games with little girls in diapers (See Chip Chan Kick on PC-FX), or even games that allow you to rape your enemies after defeating them, surely they would tolerate that was more tame like this, right ?

Nooooooooooooooooo.

Anyway, i had posted the game on PC-FX and got a mild reception, nothing too crazy for the most part. I just happened to look at the Casio Loopy next and was trying to gather more information about it but i couldn’t find anything. I looked on Google and found there was a “Casio Loopy” discord server and tried my luck on there. When i joined, i was greeted by a so called “April”. After we talked, she gave me the source code to a game she was working on and gave me more documentation as well. With the help of this, i was eventually able to whip up a quick build of the game in a few days.

However, i was a bit frustrated that i couldn’t reach out to more people, in part because most servers forbid NSFW content. I eventually learned of the existence of another server where Casio loopy stuff happened called “Unbudget Computer” Discord server where the creator of the Loopydrive and Kasami, are found. I was given the invite to said server and looked at the rules. However, there were no rules section.

I was a bit puzzled to be honest, i had never seen a somewhat big server with no rules section. There was also no clear indication on whenever or not NSFW was not allowed. In any case, i just decided to link to the game with a NSFW warning. VideoDojo played the game and was dismayed at the content. I told him that, he should have heeded my warning if he didn’t want to play such a game. Then those 2 people (thegirlgeek) made crazy and wild accusations about the game (saying it was a “rape simulator”) among other things. Anyway, they removed the link and Kasami bitched and complained about “drama” and him moving away from the internet. At this point, i was losing my patience and simply posted the “eye rolling” emoji and said nothing else. (I did also talk about Anarch in between but VideoDojo didn’t care, he only cared about being offended)

Anyway, after that i was banned. I was surprised to be honest but relieved at the same time. However, what i didn’t know is that behind the scenes, thegirlg33k and VideoDojo were quickly working to not only report my gitlab account (where the files for the fact was hosted) but also pressured other people to slander me and making wild accusations of me being a sexist simply because in said server, i made “controversal” statements like

And

Somehow according to these 2 fools, that makes me a sexist. Bruh. Of course, i would like to mention that when VideoDojo made his public tweet, he conviently left out this part or the fact it was gay sex (instead implying it was a game about assaulting women). I have made a youtube video (and several in fact) about exposing his hypocrisy already.

I also strongly suspect they accused me of being a wild raging sexist among other slanderous accusations… All because i posted a NSFW game on their server and made a couple of statements that are not even remotely sexist. To this day, i’m still baffled they behaved like that.

I thought people would at least come to accept such games after the Baldur’s Gate 3 debacle with Bear Sex but nope ! Not in their house.

I suspect they behaved partly because if they acknowledge the game’s existence, the casio loopy homebrew game list would be just me. And as a writing this article, this is still the case.

In any case, i forgot to mention this but that server also shared members with.. you guessed it, the PC-98 discord server ! You know, the system where it’s estimated that 40% of games are porn games ? The people on there were quite open about this fact too.

I had a fight with those people who were, for the most part, defending the other moderators. I was told by other people on another discord server that they may have noticed my bio on discord about israel and banned me as a result of it. This is when i dropped the comment on them being supporters of Hamas and shit broke loose. They asked me for proof about what i said but i told them it happened behind the scenes and admitelly, i didn’t have proof, at the time.

The backlash

But anyway, for a couple of days, i noticed that people were silent to me, like they were clearly ignoring me and my posts about unrelated posts. I quickly realized that this took much bigger proportions. So i left the server and made a video about VideoDojo and stuff. I also exposed the type of games that videodojo’s friends were playing (so called “rape simulators”) and i have never seen such a pushback from these morons . Of course, they refused to acknowledge it was even a problem at all (even if they admitted, they existed on the system and they did play them). Instead they put the blame on me for making the game and making the accusations about Hamas.

Shortly after the video was released, a member of said PC-98 discord sent me the following message :

I was honestly shocked to be honest. IDF in this instance refers to the Israeli defense forces. (This was in reaction to me adding “Fuck Hamas, imagine killing a bunch and playing the victim after” to said Casio Loopy game) Yes, i was talking to this guy (and working on a PC-98 game) but he dropped me out shortly after this message.

I later learned from said Casio Loopy server that there is an unwritten rule about banning Trump supporters or anyone involved in porn or the likes of it. This happened to the trans woman called April who was viciously called a White supremacist.

Yes really, they really did call a trans woman who said she likes asian a white supremacist…

These people are looney tunes, fuck them.

Just why ?

To my haters : Get a life. Some of you even have type 2 diabetes. What’s your problem with sex and porn ? Why are you so hypocritical about your own held beliefs ?

VideoDojo, Kasami, thegirlg33k, why are you okay with your friends playing such games but not with me making a gay porn game on your “beloved” console ?

A console mind you, was made in part because the creators believed girls shouldn’t play on “boy’s consoles” like the Playstation 1 ? This is like Chicken for KFC or Jews for Hitler but for women and feminists instead.

Why are you still on twitter in fact, a platform bought by an openly hostile person against LGBT, even helped unsuspend people who shared torture videos of toddlers ? https://www.afr.com/technology/musk-s-x-defends-reinstating-account-that-shared-child-abuse-material-20230810-p5dve2

And after the Hamas attack on Israel, people were openly celebreating and sharing videos of israeli people being murdered. And so on… i can’t forget of course about the mass hysteria on Imane Khelif, who is not even a trans woman, but still felt the fury of far right activists on twitter simply because of excess testoterone and not looking “female” enough. Or other cringe shit like “If you like this woman, you’re homosexual” that i will pass on reading because it makes me nervous just to think about it.

The “Wily” guy in question on the PC-98 even unironically told me that i shouldn’t be overly critical of twitter back then… This guy is totally delusional, i can’t believe i was hanging out with them holy shit. Same guy btw, who thought it was “fucked up” that a ROM translator got death threats over him adding the word “trap” to his translation hack. Of course it was Twitter (and some on romhacking.net) that did send them threats.

The hypocrisy in all of this makes it even more ironic.

To be clear, you don’t have to enjoy such games and you are entitled to ban me from your server. What is not acceptable however is the character assasination i suffered from shortly after.

One day guys, karma will hit you hard. In fact, it already did with the Fixel Drama. I’m proud to have exposed the failling of his preorders campaign and i’m also glad this led to him finally reimbursing everybody. Even some of you haters there agreed this was a good thing. And he would have never done so if not for my videos.

He should have never opened preorders for a product that was not ready for shipping, not even close in fact.

I got few thanks for exposing them (in fact i got a lot of hate) but i can rest easy that i did the right thing in pressuring them.

I fully stand by the games i make or my statements otherwise.
