Waaait a minute. I already paid for this game. It's not even FINISHED yet, and you're already trying to charge me again for the an update? In what universe do you buy a game in early release and then have to buy it again before it's even completed? FFS, it's not hard to find this game on less scrupulous sites for free, but I paid for it here because I like to do things above board when I can, but if I'd known this was going to turn into this kind of scam, I would have just downloaded it elsewhere.

No. But the what appears to be happening is that when you buy the game, you do get the updates, you just have to wait longer. He releases the updates to his high-tier patrons first, then lower-tier patrons, then here. It's basically monetizing early access to updates. Honestly, I can accept that for a game under development, but it really should be communicated here clearly. If a game is being sold on a digital storefront, I shouldn't have to go to Patreon or anywhere else to figure out the terms of ownership and maintenance.
