Esse cara e um fdp, mano.

In English, I believe that to receive something, one must have given something first. In the event that the transfer to Subscribe Star doesn't work out for you, you may choose not to proceed with the game. All this time, people have been paying you for the game.
I agree, also a way to get more supporters is to make new content, regular updates more often then every 6 months.

We all know we are getting the game for free. At least, most of us do. And even Patreons do not technically buy a game but sponsor the Devs out of the kindness of their hearts. And in all honesty, without them, this whole business model will fail. They are paying for the party. So why lie to them?

If Zip would simply stick to the message "update is ready when it is ready" there will be not much drama. Him breaking promises with lame excuses is what is causing all the negative energy and is disrespectful towards his paying supporters.

So, Zip, if you are reading this: great game, but spend your time working on updates rather than on shallow promises and spineless excuses.

Another variation of the chicken-egg dilema. There is "no work without support" or "no support without work"?

Therefore, on such a patreon there should be any voluntary donations on the principle of 'God bless you'. Dividing sponsors into classes, promising extra content, not meeting the deadline and then writing that it's free anyway is not right.
Many work like this. Never asking for support, never making false promises, they release when its ready.
Like True Bond.

I have a question: after the acquisition of the portal by Patreon, will such games be removed from here?

Is it the best moment to prepare backups? :)

The memo is dated March 31st not April 1st.
Maybe a refresher on time zones is in order... you know how it can actually be the first in one TZ (like say where the F95 servers are) yet still be the day prior in another (like for example where the server for a fake website is located). It's a big world bub :)

When is the public version going to be released
Version 0.15.4889 is the most recent version. There are no new versions pending. Now you may say, "Gee-willickers, that doesn't make a bit of sense. Didn't the Dev say the update was 99% ready months ago?" To which the answer is that the Dev was lying. As he has lied for years.

If they were developing and releasing the game for free with no supposed pay walled benefits then nobody would really care. But that is not the case. He scams people out of their money, and that is the scummy part. Though if folks are still paying after this long then to an extent the blame is starting to fall on them.

What Bullshit is this...
The Dev has been dumb about declaring update progress, but he has always released each update here himself and free of charge. There have never been any Pay Walled benefits that I'm aware off. The two reasons beyond his ability to "eta" that people are pissed about are because
  1. They are upset their free thing is taking too long.
  2. Because they don't understand the difference between Sponsoring and Buying

Paradoxically, only those who pay should be angry because all information about the alleged progress was behind a paywall. The rest should not know anything and wait calmly :)
