Please tell me where I lied. All of the tiers promises I fulfilled! The animations were the last ones! And 0.160 I finished within a month! And I told people a couple of times precisely why it took the time it took for 0.155. I've been always honest and direct on my Patreon site and always informed people about things going on. Even about my surgery although it's actually no ones business! If you don't believe my posts, it's your problem! Not mine!
The issue is not that you're supposedly lying, but total miscommunication between you and your audience. Folks are confused and frustrated with never ending delays, period.
It's obvious that you look through this thread time to time by checking its pulse. Which is a good sign, AWAM is your baby and every critical notion about it is pretty tough to swallow. If you have time to answer to your supporters on Patreon and via e-mails, doing the same thing over here, like you've done it previously when you needed promotion of the game, will only solidify overall positive perception towards you. Mere example: instead of posting next "hot stuff" out there, do it here yourself. Not all the time, but occasionally. You'll notice how the reaction tilts in your favor.
I understand you're trying to up the quality to the new heights and in the long run the current obstacles gonna speed the development, as animations on this level are unprecedented for AWAM.
C'mon, pal, you've created the most popular game with female protagonist, you deserve respect from the fans, not hate. But it's a two-way road. Humility is a virtue. We don't want your creation to collapse, help us help you.
