dear developer, I want to tell you I am not a member of your Patreon but I have access to everything in your top tier, no there is no point looking for me anywhere, as I am not a member.
But you see I have this moral dilemma only you can solve. you make quite a fair bit of money on Patreon, yet on here this website you charge people for outdated updates and think it's acceptable to do this, that is a pretty shitty thing to do to people who are helping you to test and play this game.
I am going to ask you one time to stop charging people for old updates, and we both know the updates on this site are outdated compared to the updates in your Patreon, lets not waste time playing games!
I think it's more than fair that after a month or less depending on you, you release your latest update to your fans here, your wider game testers, bug finders etc. Instead of trying to railroad them into paying for old updates.
I am going to leave it here to see if you remove the charge and keep it off for all itch updates. what you sell separately from your game is not my concern and I am not interested. I am interested in the fact you robbing people when other developers would dream of doing what you have done. You are essentially kicking your fan base, those who continue to test your game after a patch release to the community.
I am going to ask you politely and kindly to remove your charge for any update on this site since your already rocking enough money in your Patreon from your supporters. If people want to rate your game they can do so by donating if they can afford to.
What you have done is pretty shitty. Only you can make this right by removing it and keeping it off on each update, do what other developers do, keep your latest update in your Patreon for as long as you want but less than 4 weeks. I will not ask you again, I expect to see the charge of 4.99 permanently removed for everyone!
