BTW I'm lost when it comes to this whole gzone drama... What's going on and where can I start?
I see some of the devs are remaking the game but the art is much worse than the original.. I also see gzone(original dev?) Is reworking models to look much much worse than before so what's going on lol
Everyone seems to be making the game shittier which is a shame considering I really liked this one... Easily could be the top game and I've seen manyyy xd
Ill try and sum up what went on from my point of view.
Gzone made the decision to spend more time on another game instead of AP, while AP was and has generated more money. In doing so, he delayed multiple updates for AP (while promising updates) yet made the choice to spend more time on the other game. During this he constantly teased updates on his discord which required people to purchase a higher level on patreon to view said updates. This wouldn't have been so bad if he actually didn't disappear when the date of the promised updates approached and the content was more than a few recolored pictures. He still has not refunded multiple people. I still have not been refunded for being a subscriber of over 4 years for half ass content / content which was never delivered.
During one of the last updates, it was heavily pushed that "new content" was added to the game. It was found relatively quickly that scenes were actually removed from the game.
In the best example of Gzone's incompetence: he bailed on his customers, subscribers (literally the people who paid him for update/updates) and worst of all his own team / coworkers without a word. Their was a half-ass excuse about a power outage in Europe causing the problem, while at the exact same time he was on his discord pandering for subs. As weeks went by and the update came and went, Gzone decided it would be a good idea to tease an update for the other game. Within minutes of receiving backlash for being the scumbag that he is, he posted a half-ass apology regarding AP.
During this entire fiasco, Gzone never stopped pushing for more subscribers / funding / $$. He was constantly posting about looking for a replacement artist to work for free (interestingly, the last artist left because they were not paid). It's been said he has also not paid some of his former team which (among other reasons) led to their departure and the forming of a new team and game.
In short, Gzone is a piece of shit scammer who has done the following:
Lacks the ability to manage a project / game, let alone attempting to manage more than 1. Refused to listen to people who have experience doing so.
Lacks the ability to converse with coworkers and customers / prospective customers.
Stole from coworkers / teammates and customers.
Refused to refund money he stole.
Removes content from a game while declaring more content has been added to the game.
Refused to pay artists while looking for more artists to work, for free.
Constantly pushes for people to purchase a higher level of his patreon, in his discord for what is essentially a recoloring of old content. Said content is generally in the form of 1 - 4 pictures.
Allowed an excuse for his disappearance to be given of a power outage; while subscribers who live in the same area as he did not have a power outage (for over 3 months) yet at the exact same time he continued teasing updates to his other game as well as shilling for more subs on his discord.
