And no, that's the official claim, but that's not how Patreon actually works in practice and everyone knows it. You pay to get perks, getting the game before other people or anything else, thus you pay a service. If you stop paying you lose these perks, thus this is a service. Pure donation would change absolutely nothing in your ability to get the content in question. Try some economics and/or marketing course before coming back.

when is next update outWOW - not even close to a milker. This dev is communicative and produces quality product in reasonable time frames. Delays are not surprising in any development project, especially over the Western holidays. All of us want more, faster - but unless you're a supporter you have no room to complain (if you are a supporter, complain on support platform or message the dev).
I would give you the same advise

Now you're suddenly trying super hard to shift the conversation into economy 101 when this whole thing was about using the same nick across multiple platforms, which for some reason you believe to be...wrong, or something. I simply pointed out why that's not the case, how plenty people are using the same nick across platforms, and how Patreon works despite what "everyone knows". And now you're upset or something..?
You're all over the place. You went from "Lmao dev doesn't know you", to "common sense to not use the same name on different platforms", to "Patreon's model is buying a product", and now "It's paying for a service".
Also, quick note; Paying for a service is not the same as buying a product, primarily due to fundamental differences in their nature, characteristics, and economic treatment. Not only are you cherrypicking my post - ignoring the important part, you're also going left and right whenever it seemingly fits your narrative. Do you feel qualified talking economics or telling me to "try a marketing course" (lol)?
Edit: We're both going way offtopic here. Talking about the dev is fine and all, but if you wanna have a discussion on what Patreon is or isn't, we may have to continue via DM's as I don't wanna clog this thread with it.

let's hope this month
This isn't true, Circle never said so. You must have imagined it or confuse it with another content creator.
The release will happen when it is ready.
I'm also on discord and I've never seen the creator say that, it's ready, when it is, I at least prefer to wait for quality in the game, rather than rushing the circlegames
I wasn't even talking to you brother, I just gave my opinion, but I understood what you meant
I love how that guy knows I have him on my ignore list so is now trying to pick a fight with you lol
Watching narcissists sperg out when you've grey rocked them is the best.
Stop lying. Several of us are in the Discord and no such thing was ever said. I literally just checked to make sure.
Update will come when the update comes. Dev is still active there and there's currently a member's art contest going on.
This is currently my favorite game. I hope Circle delivers a quality update after having just been disappointed by "Moonripple Lake" and "Shadows of Ambition"...
Agreed, the art is great in shadows, but the plot/writing are pretty poor imo
"Hey, man. Who said you could criticize this movie? What, have you never made a movie before? That's what I thought! You can't critique this movie if you've never made a movie. That's how this works."

I think u don't really understand how real milking works)
There are devs who make one small update in a year or half, having lots of subs and money from them and they delay updates constantly saying shit happens, computer died and bla-bla. All they do - post commisioned art on Patreon and previews of update that will be "soon"
last update was 3 months ago and as far as I understand a new update will be this month.CG began development in the end of october in 2024 and it means that the game now is a liitle bit older than one year and we had 5 more updates since initial release, each bigger then previous(ok, maybe last update wasn't bigger) So we had 6 chapters practically in one year with a lot of scenes and content and u call it milking ? Maybe CG doesn't work as fast as some devs like Llama who creates sexbot, but it's not milking deffinetly. if he wanted to milk his audience he would post BBC arts and comissioned shit on Patreon and release 1 small update in half a year divided in parts)
P.S. There is a femdom themed game called "Succubus Kingdom", dev has 200 paid subs only on patreon (it's 1000-1500 dollars per month apx) and the last update was more than a year ago. Dev released more then 7 prewievs and the first time he promissed new update was in febuary last year. Practicaly every month he promissies to release update and last time he told that update will be before New year and he will do everything what it takes to release it, u understand what happened next. Dude posts arts on his patreon and discord and really milks his audience making money while doing nothing. And there are tonns of other games and devs who develop games like this. So yeah, u really don't understand what is real milking.

Yep. There are almost ten year old games with less content or plot progression. Endless excuses, delays for almost no content.
