And yet another update missed. Not shocked. At all. What is shocking is the amount of money going into his account on Patreon. I'm actually staggered by the amount of money people are paying this dude to basically exist. And...I got curious. Isn't what he's doing basically fraud? Yes. I know I'm gonna get shit for calling foul on this asswipe on this site, but really. The question needs asking.

Why not just delete or lock this thread and ban gumdrop game on this forum ?
The worst thing is not having bad reviews, the worst thing is "nobody talk about his game"

Haters in one side + fanboys in the others side = Lot's of talk about his game = $$$

Stop making gumdrop famous.

Is not about the money... Is about the half-lie or the lie with everything. If he wants or this team wants money.... Just do a good job.... and keep ...always... being honest; ex: "people the update will take 2 years a'right?" No problem we dont care. But one deadline after another? ... plz ...

this opinion of mine... this affirmation of mine is absolute. This is a scam... or like a miracle... hum... will be very weird if this update show up and the next updates come a little more faster or a lot faster then this one.

I dont think so. I imagine patreon has similar rules as kickstarter which protect them and the creator. They dont have to give you anything in return. His tiers simply promise that they give you access to the updates earlier than others. I'm not defending his actions of course but I am talking purely from a TOS standpoint. Pretty sure it is fair game and it is up to users not to support it.

Are we surprised this guy has made 200k without any sort of work to show whatsoever.

Stupid people spend their money on stupid things

He's not breaking any laws or TOS lol, but in a general I guess you could call it fraud. He's just scamming his patrons, pretending like he's making a game when really he's just sitting on his ass collecting their checks. He's not breaking any rules or laws, this is simply a case of a bunch of idiots giving him money who are too stupid and/or delusional to realize that Gumdrop is taking advantage of them. Gumdrop is trying to make as much money as he can with as little work as possible. He's still getting paid while he's not working, so he continues to to work. If they actually stopped pledging to him and showed him he has to put in work for his money this update would have been out by now, but they don't and continue to enable him not to work. Why work when you're already getting paid for nothing?

All people here with a Steam account should leave negative reviews, and point out in one of them that Gumdrop is deleting negative Steam subforum posts. This dude is just becoming even more scummy as his scam becomes harder to conceal.

Funny how all the apologists vanished except that Joshua clown. Seems like shilling for a scammer became too ridiculous for all of them.

No chance im buying the steam game.
The idea would be for a few people to buy it, write the reviews and then refund it quickly. Then anyone here can mark that review as "helpful" so it rises to the top and people can see the true nature of this scammer.

I would do it but I don't really use Steam.

And exactly what did I speak up against again? Care to repeat? How about it clown?

Pretty sure talking about him in the way many people do isn't making him famous and he doesn't make money off views on this site

So I took a look at his steam page...

This release is low energy even for Gumdrop. No achievements, no trading cards, this guy just released the same game only censored

I got several early access games on steam that doesn't have any achievements or trading cards yet. So that doesn't really mean anything, also in regard of claim it's censored. That's not true either according to a "dev" post. (no idea, if that is gd, or whoever else though). @

That it's low energy release else? Sure, I see people complain about things people here commented on (before the shit show started), bad/lacking scene transition, and even missing ones. Such as related to the trip to the aunt's place. Common sense should had him touch up and polish the content before put it on steam. At least when he present it as, this is the chapters done so far.

I hate using ignore or block, but I'm seriously about to put you on ignore. You have your head so far up gumdrops ass you either work for him or are him.

This is not some low budget early access game or some asset flip, this is a game that gets $9000+ A MONTH. It shouldn't be a quick cash grab.

You get annoyed I agree with you now in regard of it being "low energy release" as you put it? How does that put me far up his ass? I never claimed the dude would release any on any new given dates. Just check posts I made earlier. I spoke up against silly claims of him being whatever and doing whatever with no proof. Like I would point a finger at you and claim you fiddling with kids in the park. Have enough people repeat it enough times and it would be true right?

Also, just because someone earn x amount from something doesn't necessary mean what he make is good, or that he/she does a good job. That applies for life else, so why shouldn't it apply here? I would almost claim its in the nature of man. If you can do less to get more, and get away with it, most would.
