Probably because people willing to pay are mature enough to wait 2-3 days
That would be true if they were just occasional delays. But, at least during the time I played this game, it happened every single release. It's not healthy or professional to have delays every time. It has nothing to do with maturity but with common sense since it's clear this won't fix itself.

To put this into perspective, compare with the other popular games, Gumdrop is pretty much alone in having problems every single month. There is no reason why you should accept this as normal considering developers with far fewer resources (e.g. Good Girl Gone Bad) mange to come off as way more professional than this guy who is getting 9k.

Yeah I mean it is pretty obvious he's intentionally running a scam patrons to get that extra month of pledges out of them, but they are dumb enough to keep giving him money, so yeah.

When "accidentally" have issues every fucking month that incidentally cause your release to slip to the beginning of the next month and then wow is magically able to fix itself and release after that month's pledges go through.

Not to mention how seemingly you have some sort of issue that causes you to have to "remove" scenes you said you had finished when it is obvious you never actually worked on said scenes to begin with.

Anyone who thinks this will actually come out before Patreon starts billing for next month is naive as fuck.

How great would it be that each time he delays the release is because he has been doing like 5 to 10 percent of the end game making, work do one giant release? This whole time he's just been screwing with our minds or weaseling out the unloyalist and those who stay to patreon get a giant great reward?

You must be new here. If you checked this thread you would notice that this is a consistent pattern of this dev. He misses deadlines consistently and many people here caught on to him delaying releases until he got his pledges for the following month.

how much money have you gave him? let me guess - zero? so stfu
You must like sucking the dev's cock.

Nice idea, not going to happen. In other conspiracy related news if you think it will happen, lemme tell you bout these steel beams and jet fuel...:test:

I guess I don't get why people are complaining about a game that they're not actually paying for. If people feel like they're being "scammed" then why don't they cancel their pledge? The game is trying to tell 2 parallel stories and we're only in ACT 1. We gotta get through the set up before we get to the climax and resolution, which will hopefully be worth the wait.

I agree with you here, but to be completely fair about it, I don't know how long this game has been out and I haven't pledged any money to it yet(I will be pledging to it and other games I have found through this site soon). I only found out about it maybe two months ago. So far I've enjoyed the story and I appreciate that it's not just rushing things along because the story doesn't seem to be meant to play out that way. The pacing seems to work so far.

Hello to all. I'm new. I discovered this game about a month ago. Unfortunately I can not afford to spend money on the game, but I'm grateful to the developer for making the previous build free. In my opinion it is to praise the intention to create a plot, do not go immediately to the sex scenes. and I found the puzzles nice. I understand who spends $ 20 a month to get a very small portion of the game and always late. I believe you have the right to complain. Thanks to those who have shared the exclusive patreon photos here. I hope to be happy with you for the following months :)

"Release At 12PM PST!
Part VIII is done! Just doing the final play testing to make sure there's no fatal crashing.
The Custom Edition download will be up by 12PM PST, the Regular Edition coming an hour or so after -- the MEGA upload speed is locked at around 80kb/s for me.

Thank you for your patience. I'm sure you had a merry Christmas -- I hope you'll still accept the gift that I made you."

How does this guy still have patrons? He's been fucking this up consistently for at least 6 months straight.
Most people pretty decent if you don't try and jerk them around I'm guessing. A few developers never bother to let people know they are behind on updates and they are the ones who you should be surprised about. Also its the holiday season, if you expected any of the game dev's to release on time and are pissed off cause they are not, you need to get a life and not wait around for updates to free porn games. Be thankful to the ones who did release either an update, or a Christmas bonus for us to ogle till the real release comes out
