I agree that the Steam version looks like absolute dogshit. Lisa and Piper look revolting to me. I wouldn't play it if it leaked here. Free is too expensive for that version. Hell I wouldn't even play it if the dev paid me 10x what he charges on Steam for it. That's how bad it looks to me. It's a shame because I was into the story and was curious about where it was going.
But all this is moot. Makes no sense to develop 2 versions at the same time. It's a lose-lose for both as the development time would be insane. And if he does earn 4x on Steam then that is absolutely the version he should keep! Devs don't do this as charity. Everyone should be compensated for their work.
That said, best of luck for Blackhole! Hope he makes a killin'! He just won't get a cent from me
