Oh boy, surely this won't result in people releasing half-baked almost-games as "1.0 games with future updates" because Early Access has no rigorous rules and you can just call it a full version as long as the credits can roll.

Yeap. Frankly unless me begging works and they took pity on me and accept, I can't see other ways to finish this project. Like many game devs I'm using my personal savings to survive until I can start monetizing, and this move is a very hard blow. Game dev is hard, but in the adult market it's gonna be impossible.
