Last I spoke with the dev, they weren't sure about where the game was headed. I won't go into details about their private life, but some shit happened and it was affecting them fairly deeply. On top of that, after the Patreon debacle, they weren't sure if making the game at all was worth the potential legal trouble they felt like they could incur by doing so, even if they changed platform to something other than Patreon. Does this mean the game is canceled or abandoned? I don't rightly know, since they didn't mention making a definitive decision on the matter. Just know that the dev didn't just disappear on the game because it got too big, or because they ran out of steam, but genuinely because of personal problems. So give them time. Maybe they show up again, maybe they don't. But at least people will know that even if they don't come back, they at least had valid reasons for making that choice, rather than just giving up on the game for no reason unlike what a lot of devs do.
