What is exactly the issue here? What is on your mind? Can you please elaborate your opinion?
I will go first, I don't have any issue if this developer is fishing for Patreons. You might think "why" or might even think "another fanboy." No, i'm not a fanboy to any developer. I also give them criticism with arguments to back up my opinion.
But why don't I have any problems with fishing for Patreons. Well, projects as these cost time and from a business perspective, time = money. As long a developer keep their promise, as long the developer keep the project alive, as long the developer is active producing their project, then I won't have any issue if the developer is fishing for Patreons.
The game is available for free, the developer is active communicating with their Patreons and even with their non-Patreon members. Even communicating with poeple like you, who scream something without any arguments.
As long the developer won't go off radar, and keep active producing their project and even keeping their project for free, I won't have any issue if they "fish" for Patreons.
I do understand that Patreon is also being used to "scam" people, or for developer to go "off-radar" and keep the milk cow alive as long as possible. But don't tarnish everyone with the same brush.
I would also love to see a new update, but it has only been 3 months. Somtimes you also need to have some patience. The developer still haven't gone off-rader, and it seems the project is still active in development. So, no reason to complain.
