Damn, that sucks for us and, more importantly, for him.

Dear supporters!
First, I want to say a huge thank you for being part of this journey. Your support over the past 4 months has meant the world to me, and it’s allowed me to grow and create in ways I never imagined.
In the interest of being transparent:
I met with our landlord today because we were supposed to extend the rent contract... but he told me he's selling the house instead - prematurely - has a buyer.
We originally had an agreement that he'd wait and that we'd be buying the house after we rented for a couple of years because we were saving up for the down payment. Our contract runs out end of year, so we're scrambling now, we got to move. I blasted him for not telling me sooner, but I can't do much else.
I've got a shituation on my hands.
We need to find a new place, and move.
We've got a trip planned and paid for, in January.
The 2nd baby is coming in April.
Once we do find a new place and settle down, my ability to deliver updates in a timely manner and deliver them in full quality/quantity will be greatly diminished for a while until things settle down with the new baby incoming.
With that in mind, I'm forced to take a break from working on the game for this period, and delist all of my tiers.
I want to be fair and I don't want to leech money during this time.
Insanely bad that this happened now, when this train is steaming, we've been having great community growth, I'm making okay money out of this.
With the growth trend, I was an update or two away from being able to comfortably do this for a living... this will be a major setback.
But life is about overcoming setbacks so I'll be coming back once I manage to get real life under control.
Here’s what you can expect in the next couple of months:
I’m so grateful for each of you! When I come back, it'll be for good, and I'll be coming with a finished update.
- I've closed all supporter Tiers.
- Content will be made Free until I return.
- I'll release an XMAS render set as a thank you.
- When I stop the break, I'll be releasing an update (so no paying before update is out)
- I'll be posting renders weekly until then for free members.
- I’ll use this hiatus time to plan even better content for when I return. (I won't be able to work on the PC as much, but I can write at least)
In the meantime, feel free to reach out if you have any questions or just want to say hi.
Thank you for being amazing supporters <3
Love,
BCG.
That was indeed a very big dick move by the owner.
It would be shitty already just because of it being last minute, but it's even worse since they had a verbal agreement.
This was one of the most well worked game out there, I'm really sad to see it be delayed indefinitely.
I wish all the best for the dev and his family, and I hope he can find another place and put everything in order soon!
