This isn't about censorship but Patreon is trash either way.
Regardless, you should at least let your customers know that this is a subscription model instead of scamming them.
Viewing post in Pure Onyx - Alpha Release December 2022 comments
I'll kindly point you to the description--
"The game is currently in development on Patreon and SubscribeStar, but we're providing this alternative access to our test releases for those who may have issues subscribing.
Please be aware of the following!
- This purchase will not be updated monthly
- New monthly releases will appear on our Itch profile as they become available"
Description can be easily looked over which is the reason important info that like should be stated in the purchase area.
Wait, so they don't even get to keep the builds they purchased if a new update comes out?
Since, it seems you're deleting the product page and creating a new one for every build update so, we can't even look at past comments. That seems suspicious to me.
I don't buy that reason at all, since, latest one will be on the top and you can see their month/year to tell anyways, so it is only preventing from checking what people has to say about the builds.
Luckily, there's another site where people are free to discuss and review games so, I am able to know while the animations are great, your history on development has been terrible and scummy.
I really wouldn't bother when you point it out rather than act like an actual dev and take every comment as criticism and learn they just throw a temper tantrum, tbh the game is good but the dev/devs really need to actually learn consumer friendly practises! i already had it out with them and apparently so did others.
Not sure if i want to support and as we all know a good game can be destroyed by shady practises
