Of course the game is dead. After all, there is a planned release for an update today...
I did not mean any offense when I wrote this. I was merely sharing an observation based on the last 2 updates so people don't get too disappointed if the update is delayed tonight.
Make no mistake, the update is coming soon if it doesn't hit today. And the updates are always worth the wait so be patient!

Okay, guys. I'm uploading now but it's not in a state I'm happy with. I'm sorry.
For various reasons I've been struggling with developing Hillside for a long time, but now I'm feeling completely burnt out and have lost all enthusiasm for it.
I'm pausing Patreon billing again for November and am going to take a month off developing Hillside to try and sort things out and rediscover that passion I had when I started.
Current upload speed is terrible and it is going to take another 2-3 hours to complete.
Thanks,
DB

Sucks that he's burnt out, fair play to him pausing billing while he takes some much needed time off.
Obviously there's a lot of pressure on him to get it out.

Mmm hope his interest spikes again.
In my opinion, the main problem right now is where he took the story in the last update. I don't think the turn of who was after Emma was good and specially, revealing it soo early now. What has been the main driver of the story, figuring out who was after Emma, is no longer there.
While now the whole thing about keeping Charlotte and family from powerful douchebag could be the new main driver, I don't think it will be that easy to do.
Anyway, let's see if a couple of days off will help him recover the enthusiasm.
Unless, he really has the story fully structure by now, I think if he takes some time off and focus mainly on the writing part, even if it takes, say 6 months just on that, it will be best in the long run.
DB, take all the time you need, you have a great story, and talent, find your spark and we are waiting for you on the other side, whenever you are ready.

i think all devs should take breaks after updates if they keep going without breaks run the risk of burnout

I think the dev would find his mojo if he finally rendered MC's junk.
