Except I'm doing none of that, I'm constantly saying that even I don't know the facts, don't know why it's taking the dev this long, all I'm giving is possible reasons.
Yeah okay, I mistook you for the person comparing Veqvil to Gumdrop, sorry about that.
Why I disagree? I disagree simply because while the latest post on the dev's Patreon page was around January, the status of the current update's progressed has changed several times since then, at the top of the page, where it says that the update is being tested, before that it said that the dev is finishing up the script for the update and getting the renders done, so the dev is definitely working on the update.
Yes it's true, the dev could post update news on the Patreon page more regularly, but he's a lot more active on his Discord and most of his fans are probably there so they probably know what's what, I'm not there myself or I could give you facts.
But if I recall right, the dev is a student in college, so studies takes a huge portion of his time, having to make sure he won't fail classes, pass them with as good grades as possible, which is a pretty damn valid reason why updates may take more time than he'd like, it is what it is.
