It's just sad that after 1 to 2 years of active development, he's gone silent as a lamb and hasn't at least said he's done publicly. If he's actually burnt out from making the game, then say so, don't leave us hanging. I was a demon for close to a year or so and the conversations about the game turned from praising the guy to just plain hating on him, especially in the public discord. There was more talking in the public discord than there was in the private one. If Ero is reading this thread, please say something for goodness sake. I don't think he's a scam artist. I think he's just seriously burnt out from making games and can't commit to a deadline, which makes sense.

I was also a member up until late last year, so I am sure he isn't active in the actual server, but I wouldn't be surprised if he is communicating with someone via Discord whether a friend, mod, etc. If he is logging into F95, doubt he isn't active somewhere else even if not publicly which means he could say something if he wanted to. At least to the people who have given him money and had faith in his game, his art, his vision.

Sometimes i wish i didn't start games on here because it's so disappointing when they are abandoned (Looking at you A.O.A Academy)

i am here for nearly 4 years now i think and nearly all games i like either get abandoned (but happens relative rarely) or get slow updates (3-8 months schedule...) which happens quite often and it wouldn't feel that bad if i wouldn't see so many others games i don't like get updates way more often (at least it feels like it) but you get kinda used to it and sometimes when you are lucky some creators stay and some deliver at least updates in a 1-3 month schedule which - then you appreciate those things.

Yeah i only started playing the games on here about 6 months ago (I originally signed up for the animation & Loops section) and i'm still getting used to the disappointment of games being abandoned lol.

was only joking, directed to the user i have quoted and his post and posting history in this thread.
sadly, the game is most probably dead, for a while now.
ofc as pretty much aynone here i do hope it might miraculously come back one day, yet slim chances, soner we accept it, the better.
Its of course uncool to leave people hanging, but I also believe people seriously underestimate the amount of work it takes to create a game of this quality for one person. Just the renders and post work would require somebody to work full time to release bi-monthly. I'm not even exaggerating
Your right, but approx 4 months ago author lied he is nearly completed update and it will be out in few weeks. After that, he lied two times more and disappeared. My opinion after half year delay (it supposed to be ready in autumn) - he procrastinated all this time and all this development updates were bullshit. If we are lucky - he actually started to work WHEN he stopped to respond (end of Jan).

Seems the people who more underestimate is the people who decided become sole dev, hence the amount of projects abandoned. Maybe they should start thinking 2-3 times better before make that decision.
According to Ero's words, he was working full time in this update. And still, here we are

Come back next year. There might be an update that there is no update.
Im not trying to be smug, but have you ever tried to develop a game? Its the demands that are unreasonable even if peoples frustrations are understandable. Even if people would make these project together with other people, coordinating a team require additional administration + time + costs. That coordination is easily one fulltime job in itself. I don't think most people really understand what they are demanding. In addition to that, managing patreons and having additional rewards for patreons is almost a full time job in itself.
Very few have claimed to be professional game designers. People can support an artist if they like the game. I personally prefer to see games that never get finished that have cool perspectives and some content rather than the alternative, that only professional game studios would produce games. Because that would leave us with just a handful of games that arent even that growndbreaking to begin with.

And that's where my views goes 100% against yours. Unfinished/abandoned games are simply a waste of time imho and i despise it.
