ah yes, I must go out of my way to go onto the Discord to look for updates for the game rather than them just managing their own page, a brilliant idea Nick! Brilliant!
Smash's biting sarcasm aside, John, it's far from unreasonable to expect some measure of professional conduct from someone who is taking money for a product or service. Requesting or even demanding that SD keep his clients and customers informed by properly maintaining his storefront and Patreon pages on at least a monthly basis would be par for the course and understandable even without the long silence broken only by one or two comment threads spaced out over more than a year following the last update.
Yes. That, I agree.
Monthly or maybe a bi-monthly basis is ideal and more than welcome. No need for players to hunt for their Patreon and enter their Discord but..
^sigh^
..it is what it is, I am afraid.
Edit: The developer has stopped updates for Polarity for the foreseeable near future. I have checked but not thoroughly. The indie developer and another are putting effort in their joint venture game, Radiant, which isn't free.
See my above comment regarding professional conduct with paid products and services and maintenance of storefronts and payment sites. Expecting his entire consumer-base to go out of their way to search for information on a product that the immediate evidence suggests is abandoned when he neglects professional maintenance IS, in fact, an unreasonable suggestion. Expecting those same people to go out of their way to search for ADDITIONAL information when he upkeeps maintenance is reasonable. That would be the difference between telling everyone to go read his Discord for ANY information when he keeps his pages dark versus telling people to go read his Discord for extras he holds back or doesn't think of when he keeps the lights on with monthly remarks.
Addendum: As a clarification; this is not meant to "beat on" Sir Dammed or invite others to do so. It is no more and no less than a reminder to all of professional standards - even if those standards have fallen increasingly by the wayside over the past twenty years. Anyone who DOES take this as an excuse to denigrate Sir Dammed, Spannerface, or anyone else for anything but what they post here directly WILL be reported for harassment.
