Usually, I don't leave comments, but this time I guess I should. I'll tell you what's going on with all these game developers on Patreon.This is a good game but he delays the updates tot much, 1 update per month would be the minimum acceptable with what he gets on patreon.
Let's imagine that you are a developer of a small game (like this one) from Eastern Europe. At first, your game is not very popular, and the number of paid subscribers on Patreon is not large. You try to release frequent content updates to keep the audience interested. At first, your income from Patreon is not high, it barely covers your expenses for coffee. But over time, the project becomes more popular, the number of subscribers increases, income grows, and now you are already earning several average salaries per month. At some point you realize that you no longer need to release regular updates to retain your audience. For this reason, most Patreon developers sooner or later talk about “family problems”, “existential crises”, “illnesses” and so on.
To make it clearer, let's talk about numbers. Here, in post-Soviet countries, our average salary is 350-400 dollars per month. I think you understand what happens to a developer who “works” in the complete absence of deadlines and any requirements, and at the same time receives 6-7 monthly salaries out of nowhere. It's like cheating for money.
