The scrapped update's changelog. Like I repeatedly said.
You're saying it's not a scam because they can stop at any time and they're not being forced. Scams, by their very foundation, are predicated on the victims being deceived into not thinking they're victims and willingly going along with it.
There literally is an auto-flag. That's just an objective fact, it's directly confirmed to exist by the moderators themselves. Also the flag on this game was explicitly stated to have been placed by inactivity, not reports.
That's objectively not true. Firstly, he had a period of radio silence, so that disqualifies the claim of "regular updates", secondly go look at the rules for the flag itself. How could there be a qualifier for dev inactivity on this site if you need dev activity to place the flag?
I didn't say there's no new content, I said 14 months ago he stole 15 months of crowdfunding under the false pretense of making a completely fictional update that he never worked on to begin with, and that he's drip-feeding micro-updates to game the Abandoned flag rules. These are both true statements.
And I'll call a scam a scam if I please, I truly don't care how hard you try to defend a dude who's repeatedly been caught lying and trying to gaslight people. If even one person changes their mind about wasting their money on vaporware then that's good enough for me, as I said.
-I don’t know whether or not there is an auto-flag on F95, but when this thread was tagged as “abandoned”, I made a ticket and the mods removed it. It is enough for a dev to say that the game is still in development, there’s no need to post an update (it’s in the rules btw)
I don’t post an update every three months - I post it whenever I feel that I’ve got something to show. For example - 0.5a was in September and 0.4.9.9a was in May (that’s 4 months).
-What 15 months?
There’s never been a period where I was silent for that long, and there’s never been a break between updates that long either.
You’re making stuff up for dramatic effect which damages your argument. Stop doing that, there’s plenty of stuff that I actually did wrong - focus on that.
-What’s this mysterious scrapped update you’re talking about? The last one? The one where I had to split all announced content into separate updates because I underestimated the workload?
The only thing I “lied” about is time and I didn’t do it on purpose - I just can’t predict it. Which is why we no longer have release dates and I just speak about planned content in general.
Look, I’ve handled things poorly in the past, but I’m doing my best to rectify my mistakes. Right now I’m trying to work faster, being more active online and releasing updates with some consistency.
I don’t know what else you expect me to do - this is just the amount of time it takes to make a game in this artstyle, with this amount of bodymods.
I am slowly becoming faster (this layering update was finished 2 weeks faster than the previous layering one), but that is a problem - bodymods, they eat the majority of my time and I’m not fast enough (yet).
I think I’ve handled things better this year, there weren't any periods of time when I was silent and there’s been relatively consistent updates, so I really don’t understand why are you whining right now, when things are good (or at least becoming better).
