maybe the dev come back... because nothing is forever... =)
This does give me hope this isn't actually abandoned though. The dev has mentioned before that he can sometimes go radio silence in order to get things done, but if he is pausing at least he is alive.The one thing i find funny about this is the fact the dev has to be online on patreon at least in a limited compacity as he needs to login to pause billing each month so he could of easily made a quick proof of life/development post over there but so far its been complete radio silence on all forums.
Not so unusual in this semi-professional field of workIt's pretty unusual for people to go radio silent,
It's in the name, patreon was originally envisioned as a way for regular people to become patron of artists. That is, support them financially. It's not technically a marketplace, when you pledge to someone on Patreon you should not necessarily expect something in return. The developer has been transparent that he wanted to take a break, paused billing, and gave a target date (which admittedly he missed). He's also provided anyone who pledged $15 or more (lifetime) a key to the game. The last thing you can accuse this particular developer of is an attempt to milk patrons.I don’t know why there are people still defending him.
Guys… he took people money, so he should be responsible for delivering, communicating, and comitting. At least communication is the minimum thing he can do.
One month delay? You don't realize it's more than that. That's why he paused his patreon. Because he couldn't work much on it. And now he has to be very motivated to go back to it. I don't say he won't come back, but there is more chance that he won't than he will at this point. Can't be mad since he doesn't take moneyYou guys are way too hasty to consider the game dead just because the next promised update got a delay of one month. Especially since the developer already had the incliniation to post rarely.
As said, the next update should be the largest, so it should take the longest.
