I don't think the game is dead. The creator has decided to go Patreon only. Version 9.2 is avaliable on patreon
ok so here's the history.
the dev had a... rather unfriendly conversation with their player base on F95 and the game was considered terminated after the dev clearly stated they would discontinue.
The game had little to no significant update since last year and the dev posted more ads than actual work on patreon.
I'm not saying there's no chance the game will come back alive - since the main dispute was still about money - but I suggest don't put too much faith in it and also in the dev's attitude.
What a waste. This game had a TON of potential, up there with Cardibi's games(Eternum), maybe even higher considering this one is much more interactive.
All the guy had to do was keep consistent updates, Communicate well with fans, not be greedy, and be patient. This game would've blown up, it's been hovering in the top 30 for years now.
For example, Cardibi is raking in probably around $50,000 a month from Patreon lol. This guy could've been rolling in dough too if he played his cards right
