How strange that the dev's been completely silent for this long and then just nukes a free mod the community had made to keep the game going...
I understand that he doesn't want others to touch his 'baby' so to speak. As an artist myself, I can totally relate to the feeling of protection/possessiveness about your own work.
Whether this means he's still planning to continue the game, I don't know...
About him being silent I don't know much, except what I read on this forum.
Too bad, this was one of my favorite games...

I get that sure, but if he cared about the people who have supported him and this game he could've let someone else finish it for us if he's not planning to do it himself, which clearly he's not.

Sadly the remake never released a version before it was taken down.

I feel in my heart that CedSense's absence is still seriously health-related and perhaps circumstantial too. I do not for one moment believe he has voluntarily given up on his exquisite dream.

However, if he has, then for me, the tragic fact will always remain that, just as in the case of another genius, Pandelo and his sadly abandoned "My Sweet Neighbors", the stamp of quality and uniqueness of characterization is so singularly brilliant in observation, creation and portrayal that no-one else, in my opinion, can ever come close to mirroring or reimagining the magical persona of the young girl Claire.

This is just me speaking, I know, but I would and will not ever go near a remake, no matter how "good" it might be. Not out of pique or posturing, but without doubt because this is how I always want to remember my own personal experience of and gratitude for CedSense's genius.

Conversely, however, if CedSense were ever able to return devotedly and sincerely to complete his lovingly sculpted masterpiece I and, I feel sure, many more devotees, will not hesitate to buy my ticket aboard his Patreon train. I also know, with certainty, that I wouldn't be leaving until the end of the line was finally reached.
His game was in fact fantastic, but it's been almost 3 years...he's not coming back. He hasn't bothered to give his followers updates or even a reason, but still took the time to kill the re-boot. He's a very talented writer, but I can't think of a reason why he needed to act that way

who cares about him? he disappeared in the worse way, so if someone want to make a re-boot, go ahead.
if he comes back to complain tell him to stfu since he abandoned it but still received money from his patrons (still do)
that kind of behavior is the lowest u can be for a dev. Im a dev myself and I would close down my patron if I decided to leave. its a parasitic behavior to let it be on for a non-finished product. no matter his talent, that doesn't excuse what hes done.
and he is not alone, theres a bunch of devs that did/do exactly this. they exploit people this way, and in the same time they create mistrust.
so, why respect his decision to not make a reboot when he doesn't give a crap about giving an answer why he left.
