The popularity of his game made his ego inflate. At some point and it can happen to anybody he reached a dead end that made him lose time. People complained about the delay and instead of handling things smoothly he went to the dark side and it ended by a huge loss of incomes (patrons), felt betrayed and here we are. Lost a promising game.
This is absolute not what happened. Get your fact correct before trying to post. No one ever gave him shit for delay update. 99% of the dev on this site have delays all the time. Most people are very understanding and usually fine if you would just say honestly that you need more time to push out an update.
What this guy here did was the exact opposite. Because he afraid that people will unsub, instead of honestly telling people that an update is not ready, he would purposely announce that it is 100% READY, and he will even post super specific date of release for each tier. He did that usually at the beginning of the month and put the release date near the middle or end of the month. That is his tactic to lure people into subbing for at least that month.
He would appear on discord telling people that he has everything done for the update and is already WORKING ON THE NEXT THING. And a bunch of other promises like season 2 and other bullshit. People got hyped up and a lot will sub.
Guess what happen on the day of release? Nothing got release. He will go missing in action on that day and not answer any ping on discord even though he is literally active just 1 day before.
Initially this will last for a few days, then he will come out and say something like "Oh I decided to add this extra thing to this update so it will take longer. Dn worry it has like hours of contents it will be worth it." Obviously this is to buy him time to last minute rush out an update. Then weeks gone with nothing comes out. People who subbed the month he promised will have their sub expire and they have to sub again for an update that they already paid for. Of course they have the right to get angry. Yet he will straight out ban you on his discord if you dare ask him why he needed to lie about the update being 100% ready if he still needed more time. He called these people "haters" and initially a lot of his bootlickers defended him too.
And a few months after the promised date, a 30 minutes update will get released with 10% of promised contents and almost unplayable bugs. But he will not let anyone talk bad about it. No bad words on discord or ban. And he will come up to this forum and start hysterically calling anyone who rate him bad as a "fake account". Many witnessed it first hand for the 0.9 release.
What I described here doesn't happen for just one time. It has repeated at least half a dozen times since 2021.
Announce update is ready-lure people into subbing with specific promised release date-disappear for few weeks to few months-release half bake last minute update-throw tantrum because people dont like it-disappear again. We are currently at the disappear again phase, 0 word from him since Jan.
