Hmm, I totally assumed this game was much more successful than it was. But to be fair... You forget, it IS on Steam. So, idk maybe it is just burn out. But TBH i was venting more so about other devs in general.

You have no fucking idea what you are talking about.Nah, Like most other devs of these types of games that get very popular... he simply made more than enough $$$ to no longer concern himself with finishing what he started. It is currently a plague in this genre, sadly. I personally never believe when all theses devs come with these lame sob stories, 'i was sick but now better' 'my dog died' 'I was trapped on a Somali pirate ship for two years'. Im too cynical to buy that crap.
The truth is... They will eventually be back to stringing folks along with remakes or shallow content updates when they notice their bank accounts have dipped just far enough.
Can you show us on the teddy bear the places where the big bad hobbyist developers "stole" your money? Ohhh, I see, you never contributed anything to this game, financial or otherwise... you just have hurt little feeeelings because you want more more more but can't get it.
Come back when you actually contribute something to the world other than childish entitlement.
Well if you release a game on steam, I think you have the moral obligation to finish the game and communicate if something is happening or not happening. It is no longer a freespirited hobby at that point but a (side)business. This is just another reason not to buy something before it is finished.
I do like to give this particular dev some credits, he did give a steamkey to his patreon supporters who supported the amount that the game cost on steam and did freeze his patreon.
I wont talk about subjective opinions.
Except he’s really sick or dead, he should have a clear communication and committment with the deliveries. That’s the minimum obligation that he should do when receiving donations.
People don’t donate for free. We donate for a cause and for a reason. Even with charity, we expect transparency and committment as well…

100% agree but in that case he paused the donations
I understand. However, I assumed that from the latest release to the date he paused the subscription, he already earnt some amount, so informing users is necessary. The only exception is that he doesn't take a penny since the latest release.
I'm not saying he's a bad person. People make mistakes. It's just that he needs an explanation. I think what upsets most of us is not the about the extended deadline, but about the lack of committment and communication. He used to write a long post, explaining with all the numbers, charts, project management methodologies, and why he is delayed, but still, at the end, nothing has been delivered.
I'm happy to continue to support as long as he delivers. I can wait, but a committment is a committment. That's simple.

It is what it is. It simply he didn't make enough money for it to be worth his time. He probably realized he was making less than minimum wage on his labor, and decided to stop. That is why about half of the games here end up abandoned. Pretty much every small-time game, with a small but loyal fan-base, like Nothing is Forever, never gets finished.
There are a few where the dev is really committed, and will finish it whether he makes big bucks or not, but most are doing this for the money, and sadly, except for a few dozen wildly successful games, most devs would make more doing practically anything else than game development.
