It was destined to be from the start.
Its a game made by the evil 4channers in complete mockery of a "deep, emotional" VN meant for progressives and gays, entirely starting based around wanting to fuck the characters and memes like Snoot saying "Goodbye" through going full Columbine. And without the nostalgia and "feel good" moments of games like Katawa Shoujo to give the TVT people deniability.
TVT is always Leftist politics first more than being a catalogue. Look at how many "creator" pages will have detailed sections of Right-wing controversies (or even non-troversies like just saying right wing things) versus Left-wing ones who've committed legitimate crimes. Or how many random villain pages link back to Trump as if his election was Hitler.
They have pages for worse stuff.
Or this for a more apt comparison.
The problem is that they don't want to give it exposure because Snoot game is geniunely good and makes some valid points (even if it gets satirical) that go against their echochamer of validating troons
I was watching the Arch Stream, and just thought it seemed like a perfectly reasonable dating sim.
I actually did not know it wasn't "Goodbye Volcano High", and that that was an entirely different game.
Cue my surprise when he started saying, that it was "way better". Then I assumed it was a pre-quel. It took me several hours to realize that it was a 4chan rebuke of the 1st game.
GVH had its reveal trailer a very long way from its release, with a lot of delays. Half of the joke of Snoot Game being started was that it would be created and released before GVH came out and completely eclipse by being the "original" that all art and discussion linked back to.
Which worked, nobody would even remember GVH if not for the constant dance around Snoot Game.
It appears that GVH was fully, or majority, animated, correct?
If so, considering Snoot Game is a traditional, 2D, mostly static picture, dating sim; I wouldn't be surprised if it did come out before GVH because it's much easier to make.
