I really do need to watch that. I saw the first few episodes and it was really good. Problem is I'd rather play video games

Isn't Puerto Rico kinda part of the US? I find it surprising that almost 2 years after Irma and Maria the reconstruction is still underway and it's been this slow.
At least Flamecito will have first-hand experience on "apocalyptic" settings. Oh and maybe the "On hold" label should be applied.

Yes, we are an US territory the reconstruction has been slow because the infrastructure was heavily damage, but communications and internet access are fully restored and we are 90% back to normal. I don't know why the dev abandoned the game

I don't live there, but from reports I've seen it seems that rebuilding has not been consistent - in funding and task - across the territory:

My guess is we don't know the Dev's specific area nor what the related health damage has done to their ability to concentrate on reigniting game development.

that is mostly because Mr. trump tried to block the necessary funds need it, anyway just the very remotes and I mean remotes areas of PR could have some kinds problems, but all the cities are fully functional with all their infrastructure repaired. For the mental health of the Dev we all live the same bad experience

I don't know, but maybe they are in one of those "remote" areas (at least from a telco standpoint):

I'm not sure if their connectivity infrastructure has been fixed and/or upgraded yet, but if I had to live with that lack of network reliability from where I do my work, it would probably be rather discouraging on various fronts.

All communications and internet access are at 100% and when a said remote i mean up in the mountains everything is back to normal just a few roads and houses we are updating the electricity and water infrastructure

Well, the Dev stated that their connectivity provider wasn't great even before the storm, then that no local provider was interested in either improving or rebuilding for that area. So, it could be an isolated case - something I understand, as I live in the USA but Verizon (under a different name) refused to fix or upgrade my phone line for over a decade (before high-speed connectivity was offered) in a reasonably dense area of the country.
Whatever it is, I guess we'll need to hear more from the Dev at some point (hopefully).

Misfortune can take a man to the verge of deppression. That's what I think. I hope he gets better, not for our gaming sake, but for himself.

If you look, on the patreon there's a post about the problem with his internet connection.
The letter he got from his provider seems legit, I see no reason why he even would fake something like that.
Maybe the other ISP would work by now, but we won't know unless we hear from flamecito again.
I would be really sad to see this game be completely abandoned, when flamey continued to work on it, even after all the troubles he had (and I really don't think it has been as bad in the whole of Puerto Rico as it has been for him, obviously there will be parts were the reconstruction worked better and faster), but I would understand it, it clearly affected him a lot, as you could see in the game and to keep on working like that is probably harder than I can imagine.

Not sure if anyone has seen communications from the Dev in a long while, unfortunately.
