I was a Patreon member promised content for the end of June, its now August. The dev isn't responding to anyone on Discord and there's an admin that is deleting anyone that complains. I feel like I've been "Sylphined"

Gotta say that sucks, I imagine since it was an actual advertised promise (take a screenshot) you might be able to claim your money back from Patreon or from whatever service to used to pay them.

BTW I have no idea what "Sylphined" means, is it a typo? the best I could find

A number of members were made similar promises by the developer Glacerose for the game "Sylphine" who kept making deadlines for himself, but never delivered.

Damn, I completely forgot about Syphine. It had the potential to be a really good game. Dev really fucked it up.

Gotta say I don't think that's a term that likely to catch on outside a very niche group (from what I see they only had around 500 patreons)... there are lots of Devs doing the same thing who have been going for much longer, one Dev I know called SimBros went about 9 years without delivering any updates beyond minor tweaks (and they were taking 20-30K per month IIRC) I think they eventually owned up that they had stopped working on it around 2019

so when does a game earn the "abandoned" tag?
For a game to considered abandoned, the dev must have not made any posts about the game on their official pages for 3 months, or not release a new game update for 18 months. Since the last post he made on patreon was last month the game will not get the abandoned tag any time soon.

Afaik the pool should be RNG, and she should still appear in the kitchen from time to time. though TBH I've never neglected to do Roses content ASAP so I couldn't say for sure.
