Best girl for cover
October 2023, I guess they used the "3 months without dev proving they are alive" excuse to mark it as such to try to make them work faster.When was the last content update? Games get slapped with Abandoned automatically after a while. It's not always accurate, but there's a bit of justice in that.
Are they milking people on F95 ?October 2023, I guess they used the "3 months without dev proving they are alive" excuse to mark it as such to try to make them work faster.
And justice would be giving them a proper tag like "scam", "milking", "lazy development" something that doesn't create misunderstandings.
you cant be a sage to comprehend that this guy meant a patreon with 10+k monthlyAre they milking people on F95 ?
It was a troll or an automated system.huh that "abandon" tag got remove quick. did an update drop or something? I thought V1.0 not out yet?
Let's see if the can beat that record.According toYou must be registered to see the links"Soon" means in 9 years, or two months if you are optimistic about it![]()
Soon™Game devs need to stop using the word "soon" forever
This post becomes more and more valid every month that passes.You posted some numbers with the implication that the way to maximize revenue would be to release the game on Steam as soon as possible. You made it sound like the Steam revenue stream will shrink or disappear if the Patreon development is prolonged. That's not going to happen. If Aurelia stays longer in Patreon development, then the Steam revenue will simply come later. That Steam money is not gonna evaporate into thin air, you just get it later. So it seems to me that the way to maximize revenue would be to prolong development to collect Patreon money, while polishing the game such that it will ensure great reviews on Steam upon release, and finally, release the game on Steam as late as possible. (I don't pretend to know exactly what is the optimal time point to finish the game for maximizing revenue. Of course there are many factors are at play, like how much the game is gaining or losing interest across time, when is the game fully polished to have great reviews on Steam, etc. The optimal timepoint is not going to be "delay release indefinitely", I'm not claiming that.)
