Okay, so Aleksey wants more backers. But when backers/Patreons simply ask for more sex scenes, he wastes his (our?) time by adding "random dress function for Lisa" or "let's restart the game with new models and lightning when the game is 75% finished". How to tell him... Oh, yes: if you want more backers, listen to them. It's simple.
And here are my answers in advance for his fans:
- Boohoo, he's free to spend his time developing whatever he wants!
That's right! But don't complain if the backers leave. You have to motivate them to stay.
- If the game isn't restarted before season 2, the models will be different and it looks bad, blah blah blah.
And what? Are the Starwars SFX the same in episodes 1, 2 and 3? Is the quality of the design the same in every season of The Simpsons? Same thing with The Last of Us game engine? No, and nobody cares. I'm a developer myself and while we work on the engine to fix bugs and optimize it, we only update it between episodes, never at 75% of development (or your game ends up like Duke Nukem Forever).
