Has anyone told the author about subscribestar or anything? Someone should reach out to him and request him to make one, see how many people he can get back to backing him and see if that helps his motivation any.

I'm very certain that he was made aware recently after his Patreon was taken down. The bigger problem was that it killed his motivation to work on the game. It sucks but the game is dead not due to lack of monetization, but lack of desire.

And why doesn't he publish it on Steam in early access at a price of about $10-20 for example? surely this way it would get much more visibility and therefore support and money than what he received on patreon.

In short, patreon took down his game and he lost all motivation to continue.
Interesting and kind of weird, he's got a Fanbox that I subbed to at one point in time. I get that Patreon is a much bigger platform and them taking it down can zap a person's motivation, but he has a Fantia and Fanbox as well.

His latest comment was he lost motivation again because of the VISA blockade lol... This is a developer that has shown that his sole focus is only driven and motivated by how his money comes in. Good riddance, if you ask me. Perhaps I'm too unfair in that regard, but dangling a game to potential backers and then pulling back on that because "PaTrEoN bAnNeD mY gAmE" and then "ViSa DoN't LiKe Me" etc is just pathetic.

There are hundreds, if not thousands of developers who use neither of the platforms he was using - and are successful. This is someone who, as I said - was more focused on how he could get his paychecks as opposed to delivering his content.

The author's problem is that he didn't know what he wanted from the project. This is what he says in plain text. He didn't even have a rough roadmap of what the project was about and how much time it would take to realize it.
He ended up doing a simulation of a rock climber and asked himself a simple question - what to do next. And he was stumped.
Monetization was cut off and he lost interest in the project. If monetization had not been cut off, he would have fed people with promises for a few months or more, and then abandoned the project like 90% of similar developers. I think you've all experienced this.
Maybe in a year I'll try to do a pilot project in this genre. Right now I need to finish an existing project for early access on Steam. Will need to find the time to create technical documentation for this type of project.
Put reactions if you're interested...(y)

Gonna link your game here so others can see and verify your claims?
During my time in the industry I have participated in various projects. Of the games that I created personally and those that are still alive check out Pandorium Online (2d online game) and The Hunter - Pandorium (3d survival now only on Patreon) page in Steam will be available in a month or so.
You can also find a few flash games around 2009-2013 year of release somewhere on the net and Newground.
