Are you sure that the developer is from Russia?
"I'm interested specifically in where the developer is from in order to avoid contributing to Russian taxes."
"I just wanted to donate to the developer but I'm afraid the money will go towards taxes in Russia."
oh lol, i must've misread the question, i would guess he is czech, or russian, because of the various typing mistakes and czech and russian bieng the only translated languages in the game, sorry for the confusion
"I think the misunderstanding of the question occurred because I translate my text myself using ChatGPT, so I apologize for that. As far as I know, previously it was stated on the website that it's a Russian game, although recently this information has been removed."
I did a little research and found this developers post in his discord server. So yeah your money will probably end up in russian governments hands.
Its a pity for me too.
Concluding this based on his nationality is like assuming all Jews support or live in Israel. It is discrimination plain and simple.
If he lived in Russia, he would support the war without realizing it, since he would pay taxes when buying anything and these taxes would go to the government of Putin's Russia, thereby supporting the war.
Anyway, he's Russian and you couldn't know if he's living in Russia at the moment or not
В любом случае, мои деньги пойдут на убийство моих друзей и близких. Я считаю, это не приемлемо.
Ну, твоё право. Можешь попытаться спросить у самого автора в дискорде. Это вполне реально, насколько я понимаю. Но, возможно тебя забанят еще до того, как он ответит(
А может он сам и забанит
"I hope my question doesn't come across as racist because I simply want to know if I'm supporting a country that has attacked mine and is killing my friends. Thank you for your attention." СЛАВА УКРАЇНІ 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Thanks for asking this question. I work hard to make sure I have a total 100% sanction of the russian economy and anyone who supports the war. I rushed into getting this game without doing any research and given all the good youtubes I've enjoyed of it felt it would be nice to donate. Now I feel a little stupid finding out the game's potential but unconfirmed ties to russia :(
Many people will think this is silly, but when your own family and friends are being killed it hits very different. I helped build a house in Bucha so this is all very close to me.
I'm a much greater victim of Russia's actions than you may imagine and still happily support MrDrNose for the awesome game he's making. You judging the game based on its origins won't help me or hurt me or my loved ones one bit. Please stop thinking with borders and applying stereotypes based on which country's ID the person is carrying inside their pocket and just enjoy the project. You can make the difference in other, actually impactful ways, and refusing to grab 1.4 gigabytes from itch.io's servers aren't one them. All you do is make me sad that trying to support people like me, you miss on the opportunity to just sit down and enjoy something without backtracking into politics.
"In any case, this money will be spent in Russia and taxed, so I will support the war by donating to the developer."
"I understand that not everyone who speaks Russian is Russian, but as far as I know, you yourself wrote that you are from Russia, so that's where this question arose from."
then what about the boosty page that you made?
its a russian service and all transactions go through russia
dont you think by using it you support russia?
bro probably forgot about Viktor Strobovski and all his other games and thought VOTV was all he had left to finish😭 like bro, finish one game at a time
I have 2 questions, when will the game be released in steam, will Russians be able to buy it or not, and the second question is: how long do I have to wait for versions before release?
