Wow, just wow. I don't even know what to say to that. I never asked anybody to pay $20 or $40, it's their personal willingness to support me as a free developer. And without these people, I couldn't have done anything, which is why I'm very grateful to them. But the thing is that the whole game is not cost $ 20 or $ 40, but only $5 (even though 6 days after the main release). And this is a year and a half of my hard work, and more than 5-6 hours of content. Not to mention the fact that I still have a public version that is only one update behind the main one.
As for the fact that I asked not to put a new version in the public access, I ask my Patrons about it every time. And I don't see anything wrong with that. This is a simple wish, from a developer who has spent 2-3 months creating a new version. After all, I know that the new update will be leaked into public access, and there's nothing I can do about it. I have never complained about it, I have never banned or threatened anyone.
As for this forum, I have always treated it very positively. It's a very friendly community that shares its opinion, whatever it may be. Without this forum, I would hardly be able to achieve what I have now, and I am very grateful for it. I'm sure many of my current Patrons have come to me from here, and that's great. Besides, I've always tried to listen to the criticism that I've met here.
I understand that everyone has their own opinion, and with this message, I tried to express mine.
