If thats the case, why is it now violating the "no multiplayer games" rule in F95 forum?
"Multiplayer or online games are not allowed.
-Games with online features (update checks, leaderboard, etc) are allowed as long as they can be played offline. A note about it and instructions on how to block the internet connection must be added to the OP."
This is what it says in the Games Uploading Rules of this site. So, until someone finds a way to block the connection, there will be no updates to the game that will be promoted in the first Post, like it was before.
As I understand, one shiny morning devolution found, that his game was cracked and is being widely used, while patreon and substar do not give him enough money to continue working on game. So it's protection sistem, not a try to create online game
Good work Sir, you are just like John Snow. You understand nothing.
Or you are knowingly spreading miss information, take your pick.
The "Artificial Multiplayer Features" have been planed for years now and the framework for it got added with the last Update. It was not something that the Dev did one morning to "Get more money", like you just claimed.
I do not know if you have been aware of this but adding an online component to a game is not something that you do in a mornings work, especially if you are a lone Dev with a game as complex as this. Look at The day Before for an example on how stuff will go wrong when you start developing a game by just adding whatever you thought looked good this week.
