Most of the games available, including AWAM, I wouldn't have known about if it weren't for forums like F95. Currently, I'm supporting Light of my Life despite the wait being over a year because the developer is actively involved in the community and does an excellent job.
While I've supported AWAM in the past for updates that I wanted, I'll only consider doing so again in the future if the developer delivers on their promises.
In my opinion, LP seems to lack real-world work experience, which could be why the current situation is the way it is.
