Let's hope they got away with just their Patreon page suspended and not something more.

Hello!! Sorry everyone for the closed page problem, we had no problem with rights, but that was a concern. The game was created in a time when we were on college vacation, we had a lot of time, but now the classes started and took us by surprise, we are stopping with the lara choices but developing a new game, now calmly and taking care of the mistakes we made In lara choices, the idea is going to be a surprise, but it will still follow in the same style, I hope that our little project motivates other people to play games with real game characters ... until the end of the month I think we'll talk about something This new project !! Many thanks to everyone, and when we launch the new game! I hope you enjoy it more than the lara choices!

What? So... you decided to shut down the patreon page the day you promised a release... Where's that version? You gave a specific date for it, so that means you were finished... correct? or were you lying? That day came, passed, and your Patreons are greeted to a defunct page? Now you have the guts to show your face here, and promote a "secret" project. That's a huge slap in the face for the people that had enough faith in you to put out a decent project. Why should anyone support you again? I don't care if it's 3-4 people giving you $35 or 2500 giving you $10,000.

How you're allowed to post here after such a stunt is beyond me. All this reeks of scam.

The guy's right. You have a commitment to people on patreon.

@maxp , the new semester took you by surprise? You must be a great student.

@TheFapperBoy , hardly a scam. Scammers keep their pages open, Patreon has no rules against lying to your supporters. Brows the section here and you'll find several good examples.

Do you have any idea how many times we've heard that?

Patreon may not have rules but people tend to avoid devs that do this.

Happens far too often and the chances of them getting support for any future games has lowered significantly.

@maxp Will it be a complete different game or still have Lara in it?
The beginning of your game sure had some bugs in it, but aside from that, it was a good Idea and using actual in-game models was pleasing to the eye too.
I would't consider abandoning it completly, if i were you.

Few people avoid them, most don't care.
Just look at Breeding Season and how much money that new game makes.
I'll have to spend hours listing all the shady stuff that gets supported on Patreon.

This game was abandoned. The creator deleted his Patreon page, and announced he isn't developing this game anymore.
