Thank you very much! I give my best to manage a somewhat decent development and work cycle. It's been quite more busy at work currently though, which has me a bit tired after work as well. I was about to ask what the scam is about, but I might have figured it out as I read "about 4 hours of content". Which, if I didn't reach yet, I'll definitely reach with 0.3. But 3k paid patreons... they're doing something right, I can just dream of 10% of that number :D
I mean, I have been following Agent 17 for a while and I REALLY like the game. It's good, it's fun and the scenes are pretty good. But it's almost been a year since the last update AND back in 2024 quarter 1 they said the next update was supposed to come out in 3 weeks. Then it was silent for 2 months or something and they released Update 0.24 part 1 if I remember correctly. That was 6 months ago roughly. And nothing since then. They are just looking for more "sponsors" because apparently 15k a month minimum is not enough money to develop that game, it's minimum 5 bucks to support on patreon right? That would mean they make around 15k a month with 3000 patreons. So ye... The comments under their game are still going wild and have been going wild for the past 3 or 4 months. But the patreons don't seem to care that they are getting scammed apparently.
Yeah, I get what you saying and it's definitely not wrong, I've played AVNs before as well. I don't follow Agent 17, nor his game, so I can't speak for it, but some other games are indeed just 'cash grabs'. And all this while other honest devs struggle to get any financial support. Life isn't fair, unfortunately. :D
