Not ragging on Luxee or anyone for that matter, this is just my opinion.
The rationale for "I don't think update 0.7 will be popular, so I'll release a new game alongside it that has nothing to do with it to make up for it" doesn't even make sense. The only way this could potentially make sense is if A69 is a game filled with the type of popular content that's missing from 0.7(and I'll admit, I haven't read all these posts or looked into it much, so I don't know if it is or not). If it IS filled with said popular content, it makes a little more sense I guess, but still not a very practical solution to Luxees problem because it's a different brand entirely.
It's like me baking a carrot cake, realizing that most of the people at the birthday party prefer chocolate over carrot, so I give them carrot cake, cheesecake, and trap dicks. Problem solved!
If I were developing a game, made a chapter, then realized people might not be fans of the chapter after the fact, my knee-jerk reaction wouldn't be "give them a different game entirely while simultaneously making them wait longer anyway." It would be to either 1) delay the release until the second, more "popular" release was finished and drop them in a dual-package, 2) just add more content to 0.7 with more of the popular content people want or 3) change 0.7.
The rationale is just flawed. I smell a hint of deception. If Luxee wants to release A69 as a way to sort of make up for the less popular 0.7 release and call it a sort of "apology" that's fine, but something smells off because as I stated, there are far more practical solutions and better ways to "apologize." It almost... ALMOST seems like Luxee just wanted to start working on A69 before continuing Parental Love, and if that was the case... Luxee should've just came out and said that.
Regardless of what Luxees actual rationale is, or whether or not Luxee is telling the truth or just sort of bending it slightly, I personally support Luxees decision to do whatever Luxee wants to do... whether it be to release a new game, to continue PL, abandon it... I don't care either way because I think it's important for dev's to do whatever makes them happy... so long as they're open and upfront with their intentions.
