he just missing an artist who can help him with art..the animator who animated this update cant draw
if he can find an artist who is talented in copying art style,i am sure he can finish update faster and also SS got an old base code
dude seriously tho you making DC art style sound so easy like any of artist can copy it,if that is true he should already found an artist who can do a background for him.The problem is the amount of money he recieved, he didnt expect this gonna be so big if he really into money he not gonna improve the artstyle and keep make the animation good because he know this project is already big thats why he slowly improved it by hiring Dogeek he already want to fix old code so in future later we can use old saves and no longer need to start from begining if new update come out and making the animation 14-15 frame from 3-5 frame and he is now hiring AEHentai for animation.He is slow but sure improve SS if you are here from begining you should already know and the game is free whenever you pledge or not
Re-read what I said. I said it wasn't impossible when it came to an artist to copy his style. Hell, there was one game that was Fallout themed that pretty much had the same style. Again to be perfectly honest, it shouldn't be an impossible task to find another artist.
I disagree on your money point, he made goals to which he attaches a "you get this" if reached. In this case it is extra help in areas where he is weak, perfectly sensible. The point wasn't that his art needs to improve quality wise, the speed does.
I'm not sitting here saying DC (or an any game dev for that matter) owes me anything unless I specifically pay for something that has outlined attributes.
I am however saying that if DC and company expect continued support from anyone, he needs to improve his project management skills or dedicate/hire someone who can. No one likes games that suffer from development hell or a long process (unless the game is "worth it")
