I was wondering the same
Yeah the dev has said that these monthly releases need to be paid for. If buy them, you are basically paying like on of the patreon/subscribestar donors for access.
What the hell, I should have looked into this before buying, thanks for the information
Ugh, I bought a previous version too, that means I need to wait for the full game before buying it, 8 dollars is a step cost for monthly updates.
