Sure, I bet he would like to work on other things. People would like lots of things but I don't think he is an idiot. He has the #1 game on Patreon pulling in over 50k a month for an update every 4-5 months. Every Dev would kill for that. Whats the best he can hope to accomplish? Finish this game and start a new one where if he is lucky it will be as popular and bring in as much as this one? Why would he want to risk it. Patreon is his only viable revenue stream. Just like it is for every other dev making these games.He's stated repeatedly he has other projects he wants to work on. When this one is done, there's revenue streams in other places he can grab.
There is no promise his next game could bring in close to what this does so why would he want to stop the gravy train. Dark Silver was the top game on Patreon With Big Brother. When he started his new game people left en masse.
You do realize that just with the updates already planned that you can vote on would takes years at the pace updates are currently released. Does that sound like someone trying to move on to something else? He can say whatever he wants publicly but believe me he is loving the position he is in right now and I guarantee he is more then happy as hell to continue what he is doing.
