Let's Talk
So two nights ago I posted a very sad goodbye from the concept of working on the game project, and then all of a sudden we had support the likes of which we haven't had legitimately since 2018 when the game first launched.
Let's just be so open and honest about everything right now. My thoughts about shutting down the project absolutely have to do with how it hasn't generated any kind of income in years. But then all of a sudden after our dying breath's message, something crazy like 65 of you went on to buy the paid DLCs. And this is so important because the base game is free. People being interested enough to support via paid DLC purchase is really the only metric I have to be able to tell that anyone still cares about what we've been doing.
So can we get a showing of hands here please, because I can't express enough how much this information matters.
Is there anyone here reading this today who still wants this project to continue through to the goals I originally set for it? If you've been following these announcements over the last few months, you know what I mean by that.
Are there any questions that you as players have for me about what to expect moving forward if we were to continue? I feel it's important to reiterate that I'm not some studio - I'm just one dude who made this as a portfolio piece when I was getting my degree in game design. I then continued it way past its original ending adding at least 10 more hours worth of side content. So the decision to stop or continue really falls on me alone - there is no team here. Which also means, you can talk to me like a person, not like a studio. I want to know what you like and didn't like, what you want to see, what you expect, etc.
So tldr; should we give up, or is this something you wanted to see continue?
