Maybe this isn't clear, but most patrons aren't supporting the game. They're supporting the developers. If they stop being developers, patrons will stop supporting them. If they keep working at being developers, patrons will keep supporting them. The game they're working on isn't particularly relevant.Now honestly.....genuine and friendly question: Where is the point for you where you have to admit "Hey, indeed something is not ok" or don´t you care at all? If the dev stretches the updates to 3 years thats still considered not milking for you too, everything fine? You would still pay your monthly patreon five years without an update too, if the dev gives weekly update of the 3 bugs he squashed? What´s your limit?
As for evidence that they're working, we see them on discord. Granted, they could have set up a script to randomly click in photoshop and convince Discord to show Chestnut as painting. And, maybe all the interaction that I've had with them has been a carefully orchestrated lie that makes them seem like good, hardworking people, when they're actually scammers. And maybe doing things like refunding people their patron fees without question is a devious plot to convince us that they're not really greedy.
Or, maybe, these things are evidence that they are genuine. And maybe that evidence weighs more than the complaint that it's taken them 10 months to write more than a novel's worth of words and draw hundreds of extremely high quality images.
