Says will release in a few days.
Here we are a few days over a week later...

Just for fun, can anyone point out a time this dev was actually on time for any of their stated timelines? Or even within a couple days?
I dont get it. why do so many developers always give a fixed realese date which they cant keep.
No offense meant.
But if it gets tight just say it wont come out for say 4 weeks. if it comes out after 2 weeks everyones happy. that way around is shit

Is there a list of planned content anywhere? I don't mean like an order/names of girls, but type of content.

It's crazy how these devs just get sent hundreds of dollars every month with nothing to show for it.
To be fair $500 is only 10 hours of work at the average national pay for game devs of about $50/hr. I don't know much about game development, but if they have multiple people working on the game (the patreon page uses a lot of "we"), or have to contract out the art I'm sure that doesn't actually go very far. I heard somewhere that a good rule of thumb was 100 hours of development for 1 hour of gameplay in RPGM games.

I know everyone is waiting, and missed release dates are disappointing, but we have no idea what personal issues Yni is going thru. I would cut them some slack, especially since most people on here aren't actually paying anything. If you are actually supporting on patreon feel free to support or not support as you wish.

Bullshit, no one needs to pay to be able to criticize, free speech is not behind a pay wall, furthermore, it would be contradictory if you pay for something that you are dissatisfied with!
We are talking here about a game that receives 10 min of gameplay in half a year, nobody demands content as big as RDR2 from this dev.
Feel free to express your disgust to the scam methods of this dev.

I used to support this project and would love to for actual content. They would have much more support if they were actually doing sound practices and putting out the content they're being paid for. As a one off, or every once in a long while thing, some unfortunate or tragic hang-up could totally be understandable. Things happen for sure! But this is completely a normal trend at this point with this dev.

Solid communication would be nice in the least. We get shitty communication with dev consistently missing their timelines by months. This isn't a one-off "oops, so sorry, a random personal issue came up," this has been going on for like 4 years. If it were any more serious of an issue, be honest and up front and put the project on hold. They're obviously happy to have money continuously flow in while months drag on with nothing but a random message begging apologies. If this were a fun side project thing, that'd be one thing, but they are still being paid hundreds of dollars for months for an RPGM game. I wish I could just have free passive income to pay my rent for years based on a dragged out incomplete product.

That's how it is.
but to claim that the update will come in "a few days" and then not a single sign or statement for over 6 weeks is just cheeky

I also supported once but after the last times of eternal delays without explanations why and all the waiting for a tiny update... I ended my sub

Just a sign that something is happening would be enough

It could have been so good
