Donations will not be collected for this month
🕑 Added 2025-10-23 18:06:46 +0000 UTCHi,
As the title says, I've stopped collecting donations for this month. Most likely, on November 23rd, if nothing improves in better way, I'll go back to the page with the broken VPN and cancel the collection for next month as well. I think I'll keep doing this until I see a silver lining in the current situation. I don't want to delete or remove my Patreon page; I have a lot connected to it, so for now, I think I'll try to do what I described in this post.
Again, I'll reiterate what I wrote in the previous post: I'll finish update 0.1 no matter what, and then what happens next? We'll see. I don't want to leave anyone behind, so if everything goes well at my real job, I might finish the game without collecting donations at all. But I don't want to make any promises just yet.
Anyway, if for some reason I can't write more posts here, I'll say right away: thank you to everyone who believed in me and stuck by me all these years. We've been through a lot together, and perhaps we can handle this situation too.
Thank you and see ya later.

Geez, what a sad turn of events. I can lurk on your Discord if worse comes to worse, but I hope you get your Patreon payout no matter what happens!

Thank you for the kind words, and I'm not giving up yet, but I've changed my policy regarding Patreon. Now, if I decide to focus on paid work, I need to be able to get my money at any time. I could easily not receive the money I've been raising for over a year, and frankly, after what Patreon did, I realize I took a huge risk by choosing that strategy. I don't want that anymore. Anyway, I wrote a more detailed explanation of what I'll be doing now on Discord.

Yeah, I hope everything works out! If you have to stop, you made a damn good game
