if it used to be half a year, now it's a year. Only stupid people pay him money. In this amount of time, you could have already made 3-4 updates, considering that little content is added with each new update - his work is a complete sham. Inform the moderators that the game has been abandoned, and the pins are no longer needed.
Even in my own opinion and the opinions of others, the quality has dropped since 0.05. In terms of animations and faces. Everything has become as jerky as possible, just when the animation started and some action took place.
The man is clearly not an animator or a programmer. He is just an ordinary artist who can make pin-ups. I can confidently say that he has made them 5-10 drops in advance. And you continue to feed him, who is sitting here and supporting him.
Game is Abandoned and milking, just pay him
