How is leaking my game to a pirate website contributing?
If I wanted f95 to have it before public release I'd upload it myself don't you think?
I'm willing to buy the game once, but I'm not willing to pay for it with every update, much less every month. Or do you have every update count as DLS? The answer is NO!!! Your updates do not fall under that category!
It's also very convenient that you were not allowed on Steam, because there the game would have been bought once, and all subsequent updates would have been released for free.
What you are doing is trying to swindle players out of money with early access. Unfortunately, this is the sin of large companies, when they sell premium edition with early access for 100$ and the regular edition for 70$. But even they, unlike you, do it only once for each of their games and for a fully finished product. You exploit this method with every update, while your game is far from being finished!
An example of a conscientious company in this respect is Hello Games, which released No Man Sky. I suggest you follow their example! Or if you do what you do, do not resent that there are those who disagree with it.
Those who have financial resources and want to support you every month can continue to do it on Patreon, that's why it exists. I will buy the game once, only when it is fully released!
P.S. My Discord nickname is the same as here. You can ban me for my opinion if you want. Creating a new account is no problem for me)))
