I can't tell you about other developers, In this case, this is just the first chapter of the game, it was supposed to end on the past halloween, and be even shorter, but as I had to restart the development because a shadowban on my account, instead of just drop the game, I've been covering all the developing costs on my own, (for all the games), this Is what made me gain the "trust" of my followers (the real ones).
About "mediocre endings that don't match the labels and what they claimed to be about the game":
I didn't lie about anything, these are the official labels/tags of the game, if you saying that, is because you come from one of these pirate sites that have been stoling my game, and such labels/tags where added by them, so It's not my fault that you've made wrong expectatives (also you're pirating my game).
Even when the game is free to download now, that won't give any of you the freedom to share the files outside from here, (If you want to share the game with your friends, share a link to my main page instead).
Also, I'm thinking on making further info on spanish because of the translation issues, anyway, I've lost enough time bringing evidences, the infor is there, but you can think whatever you want, the story hasn't ended and will continue next year.
