Lmao, If you been with f95 long enough you knew the announcement was a April fool's joke.
That aside, sad to know the project is wrapping up. Great to hear there is a next project, concerned its going to be a hogwarts/magic academy spoof. Akubar's witch trainer was probably the best, there have been a lot of others since then, each one having the same crowd that follows. Fair warnings, those peeps eat devs for lunch an shite them out before bed, no joke, there a demanding, never happy, complain then insult, type of crowd. Just so ya know if you do decide to go that route with the next project, it may attract them (be aware in large numbers, dont be suprised by 50 to 100 forum pages a week of the same, complaints, insults, arguments, and the sort).
I say this cuase I care, dont wont you being unprepared for what may be, but that's just it may be, to say the least my concern is you getting drained like 90% of the other devs and the end result the ruination of a devs will to keep making it.
Now that that's said. I'll address the elephant of steam. I too seriously think your games are worthy of a steam edition at $$$, you deserve a little more then your patreon pledges give you for your hard work making your games. I say that due to your comment to regularly produce updates with above the standards amount of content.
Anyway, thank you for SJX.
