I hope TLG is okay and coming back to give us some closure on the patreon situation, it seems a bit odd to develop the update to a finished state if you are just going to disappear near the release...if I was planning such a scheme I would at least collect the new subscriber's money while releasing the update and then yeet the fuck out.

Perhaps the game did not pay off his expenses. He bought a lot of assets. In addition, prices for electricity, gas and utilities have risen in Europe, and therefore it was more profitable to just find a job rather than do a novel. Maybe he was just tired or something serious happened to him and one of his relatives turned off the patreon.

Those things don't just creep up on you in 2 weeks, the electricity prices and stuff didn't change much in a month. He's probably dead, RIP
Discord profile pic also gone.

He had more pledges on patreon than MrJet and OceanLab combined. I doubt a random job would be more profitable.
Nah, MrJet has more than him (~1k), tlg had ~4.5k$ before taxes, so depends where he live it could be not enough to live and invest in development. Not gonna speculate what happened but at least he is not milking patrons like others do.

I checked earlier he still had his discord pic on his profile damn this sucks i really liked this game dev most likely deleting everything and abandoning the game.Those things don't just creep up on you in 2 weeks, the electricity prices and stuff didn't change much in a month.

Pretty fucked up if the dev really abandoning the game i get that he could be having personal problems but he could just have paused his patreon and wrote a post explaining what's happening to just delete his patreon and now today delete his discord pic kind of just makes me think he's abandoning the game definitly this is such a big fuck you to fans and people who supported the game.

This is the shittiest thing you could possibly do. The game has thousands of fans and hundreds of patrons who at least need an explanation so they can "mourn" their loss and get some closure. Just vanishing without a trace... man that's so fucked up. This game had around 800 patrons, the next update was allegedly finished after 5 months (I emphasize the adverb "allegedly".) It is the weirdest case I've seen among all the adult games that I've followed.
One thing I'm convinced of: he's physically OK; it's not that he passed and someone else shut his accounts for him. I've read he had his Discord account active until a while after his Patreon was already cancelled.

Yeah it's a pretty shitty thing he did just abandoning without a word and yeah he's clearly ok when just like 4 hours ago he had his discord profile pic still up and now he deleted it so clearly he's just deleting everything and leaving.

Curious and suspicious none the less... Give it a month or so before seeing how things truly play out.
Sad that I did like the game somewhat (characters and how well they looked/written)/HATED the story and constant typos)

exactly this game meant so much to me I mean
there was moments between Jenny and MC that was so beautiful
it's actually made me cry and to have it end like this with no closure
With you there Vidal, especially with Jenny on their first date, looking out into the sea, the moon shining and the beautiful music, that scene made me shed some tears, hope he comes back to finish CH6!
