Additionally, Platforms like Patreon, Subscribestar, etc. are built on the model of magazines wherein you get content as you pay. But that mode of supporting a game developer specifically is so bad for consumers because of how game development works. You aren't adding content on top of an already finished product, rather you're still creating, e.g. building a table for plates you're supposed to be selling. It's meant for early adopters who are rich enough to support through the entire development cycle rather than those who wish to have access to the final product; which is what digital storefronts like Steam and GOG are for.I'd say that Patreon is more about "supporting development of product" than "gaining early access to product", I believe it's fundamentally different and people who treat a crowdfund as an early access are doing it wrong.
While in the crowdfund you actively support an entity (person, dev team, whatever...) with talent in creating a new thing, Steam EA is more about getting hands on early and provide feedback for something that is mostly on firm tracks, it's basically a pre-order with extended demo access...also, Steam EA allows people to refund whenever, which limits the amount of money that the Dev actually get from it iirc...it's not a crowdfund.
PERdoes anyone know the name of the new game teamGatto is working on? Here is a Pic from his twitter.

Since there seems to be a bit of misunderstanding, I would like to clarify things one more time regarding the current state of the game and its development.
The game known as Project Extermination: Operation Ground Zeroes has settled on the final title Rogue Protocol and has landed on Steam with its TBA page, keys have already been distributed to the "Veteran" backers through a Discord and Patreon campaign.
The crowdfunding has reached its goals and Patreon has been closed, budget has been reserved for the game, if you want to keep following the game's development you can check the official Twitter account or the Discord, you can find the links in theYou must be registered to see the linkspage (while you check it, don't forget to add to your wishlist and follow).
The game is a a third person action-adventure with survival and horror elements and will feature a large open world map subdivided in different areas with different biomes and gameplay loops; the game will not feature adult elements out of the box, but it is built with modularity and modding in mind, a fully optional adult module will be built by a trusted third party as an unofficial integration, official modding tool will eventually be release for further customization and are planned to be made publicly available after launch.
This was done to provide a game that could appeal to a wider audience, while retaining its original promises and avoiding getting country wide bans on those location where pornography is highly restricted.
if you want to follow the development of the adult module only, you can find the modder's page onYou must be registered to see the links.
Regarding the older iteration of this game known as Project Unknown: Section 7: that PoC has evolved and has become this game, its core mechanics will be integrated between the base game and the adult module of Rogue Protocol.
Regarding the spin off known as Project Elimination: The Forbidden Planet: that game is being rebuilt by the adult artist in charge of delivering the adult module for Rogue Protocol, recycling assets provided by Matto for Rogue Protocol. It was first intended to be just a test bench for integration mechanics, but it has since become its own thing. It is currently in scope to be marketed on Steam with the same format of Rogue Protocol (SFW main game + adult module) with the tentative title of EXEUnit or Rogue Patrol. You can follow the development of this spin off on the artist's page onYou must be registered to see the links.
I hope this clarify once and for all your doubts, if you want more informations you can find them by searching this thread, specifically you can have some more details on these posts here and here.
This is Alket, signing off.
Unironically more excited for this than Rogue Protocol.PER
Literally a "remake" of Project Elimination (one of his older games he made)
