VN Ren'Py The Intoxicating Flavor [v0.11.0] [PixelsLab]

[SonsOfLiberty]

Unpopular in Patreon terms. This has all be explained earlier in the thread, but in summary: he doesn't make a lot on Patreon, and he ended up getting a fair amount of debt while he kept working on this game. Then, to make matters worse, the payment fulfiller that partners with Patreon stopped allowing money to get sent to Russia at all. He had to make a 24-hour trip (12 hours each way) just to get outside of Russia to withdraw enough money to pay off his current debts . . . and then go right back into debt afterward. The trip was also really hard on his back, so he decided it's not worth it.

So while he earns money, it's not nearly enough to make getting what he earns worth it right now. 4.1 million people on F95Zone, most of whom are playing for free, does very little to help his financial problems or to make getting paid any easier for him.

The rejection from Steam was the nail in the coffin.

I believe Steam still allows money transfers to folks in Russia.

I think the problem is transfer the steam money to a russian bank, because paypal and swift block, etc.
Another dev also abandoned the ending and wrote
"Sometime in September we found out that the last option to withdraw money from Steam was blocked."
