when i downloaded it there was NOTHING, and i repeat NOTHING from dev saying it was dead on the contrary quite the opposite.  regardless.  with that said, this is one of the reasons i stopped all monentary support to devs.


so many devs abandoning games, long time between updates ( only for the update to contain little to no new content just correction which i dont even notice outside of some spelling and grammar which i care less about if im being honest as long as i can follow the story).


what im saying is, if a dev wants monentary support they need to finish projects, they start, add content with their updates ( i doubt anyone really cares about spelling and grammar mistakes as much as the devs updates seem to suggest).


its even worse when the dev has multiple projects and doesnt seem to be updateing or completing any of them.  evermore felt like it was at a halfway point to me and left on a cliffhanger of sorts.


my suggestion for anyone that is supporting these devs monentarily if they abandon the projuct you are paying to support:

1. keep track of money given from first day

2. if dev abandons project request full refund of everythign paid to the dev ( not completing a project but taking money for said project is the same as stealing your money as the dev scammed you by making a promise of product and not delivering).  side note, if dev is not in the same country as the person paying the support it becomes an international crime with stiffer penalties.  i am aware of one such case where a "dev" was sued for the reason we are discussing here and since the dev was in asia somewhere and the person making the suit was in north america somewhere it was deemed to be international fraud.  long story short "dev" had to repay ever dime back to those that supported, he spent time in jail, and was banned from patreon.  this incident happened a few years ago.


anyway hope at some point dev finishes evermore it was good till the dev cockblocked at the halfway point.

You aren't paying a Patreon for a product, that's not why devs have the Patreon, the Patreon is to support them while they develop and in return you get some perks. You are not entitled to have a dev continue to dedicate their life to a game if they can't make it anymore your post comes off as childish. Thinking you have the right to ruin someone's life over a game is ridiculous. It's also not a scam, you weren't promised anything. If you went into buying a Patreon because you think they should owe you and be forever in your debt then my suggestion is don't buy paterons, these devs are rolling in money, they can't work on these projects full time for most of them it's a part time project that sometimes they get a bit of money for. Also it's ridiculous that you think grammer and spell checking is what's holding content back from how long it takes them to make it, you clearly have no idea how much work goes into creating a game like this as a solo dev. If you expect solo indie devs to always be able to finish their projects then your insane and should probably stop following or consuming the games they make

The dev is also not entitled to continue collecting supporters money if they are no longer making that which patrons are supporting. That's common sense.
