Exactly! A positive attitude may not solve a every problem by itself but a negative attitude will just make it worse.
That is a terrifying thought. Haha, you thought I was the GOOD dev, but it was I Koda j/k

Fair enough, encouraging Lina while she missed deadlines is not actual positive reinforcement, that's true. But calling her out and shaming her for failing isn't either. In fact, that is far more likely to force a person to quit altogether, wouldn't you agree? I get that people want to vent, I really do and I've done more than my fair share of it on these forums, but lets not pretend we are trying to help a dev while doing so. We are trying to make them feel bad for disappointing us, flat out.

Exactly, especially when Lina owes us nothing. We are not paying her any money in the first place. This is a present from Lina to the world and to the people who want to enjoy it.
I was praising Lina for the work she had done despite her issues. I praised her for the most recent and playable version of her game which I really enjoyed and I had never before had a chance to thank her directly, and I was praising her on her last post where she came forth with her issues and mentioned still working on her project and having done most of the work needed for the release. She mentioned she was waiting on a friend to do their bit of work so she could post another update. I am not praising the " 1day or 1week Lina didn't post anything" that just sounds stupid I am praising Lina for what has been done up until now and encouraging her with my comments for her to keep going. It's like telling someone who is running a marathon "keep going you can do it, you have come such a long way I am very proud of you!"
and with that I think the people here should refrain from venting their negativity and instead if having nothing positive to say, ask for an update on a project you are excited about.

it certainly has more results than disencouraging. There's plenty of studies that reflect this and it is general knowledge across the world that encouragement is one of the most important things for the development of people. If we use encouragement in the form of words to help people develop into adults, why wouldn't we use encouragement when we want a game to develop to its finished state or when we want literally anything to develop?

Well this thread is fucking unusable now apparently.
Feels like both sides need to log off and get a life.

Pretty sure she'll release something when ready to do so. Everyone has a life outside and many have personal issues that don't need to be spoken off.

Lina does great work but sadly they have been having some brain issues. The game is still in development but they needed some time to heal.

Do you just defend every developer regardless of how often they actually produce content, if any at all?

Good luck finding someone who wants to pay for the download when there hasn't been an update.
