Hey everyone, was really thinking hard about making a post in this Thread and it will possible be the only one. It will probably contain ranting, but mostly just frustration, so sorry in advance, if someone is annoyed by it also, it will be a view from someone, who was a patron on Patreon.
I became a patron in February (10$ Dollar Tier not to flex, just disclosure). The first release was set for around mid January, but he ran into problems and the next release was stated for March, in a post at the end of February. He actually stated there already to not give out specific dates, only if he knows, he can make it.
Then End of April, he apologized, since he’s taking so long, but still wasn’t really done with everything. Also he wasn’t really happy with the foundation of the game and wanted to make it better, since he would have to work with that for the remainder of the development. All good and understandable at least at the time.
The next update was in June, with some information to gameplay and that the was 90% done and he seemed happy with progress, so everything cool. Actually, he did the most posts around June and July. Expect of Renders for the higher tiers, nothing in August and then the beginning of October.
End of September, i changed my tier to the lowest, with the intention to raise it again, if the 01. release is done. Mid October the next update with a release in November. After the months before, i was cautiously optimistic, that he would actually deliver.
Well, the End of November the last update came and so far, well game is taking longer than expected and he will give out another trailer in a bit over a week at that time, so around 10th of December was possible. Even with the release later that month, so either a Christmas or new years present.
The End of December came, but no trailer and no release. Since he even didn’t do a post about maybe having issues, that was the last straw for me.
I actually pledged for this month again, to give the specific dates. But this was it for me now, it isn’t atually the delay, but his communication and not being able to either stop with giving out release dates or even giving a real estimate on how far he is in development. He stated in the post from October that people would blow up his DM’s and that it was too much for his fragile self and also real life stress gave him a bit of a mental breakdown in September. For me it wasn’t hard to belive, that he would get angry messages, also real life can impact development. Nothing to get mad at him, but the months before made it really hard.
Sorry, that the post got longer, than expected. As far as i can tell, expect another update post until the end of January and even maybe a release, but i wouldn’t bet on it. Even if there’s a release, i will not pledge again to him, since I already support other devs now.
Of course I do offer my services in the mean time
