I don't like what this guy says and he did fail to communicate with everyone. There was a lot of questions being asked on updates that were never responded to and still have not been.

Probably get some disagrees, but through all of this I enjoyed the game. Maybe its because I did not look at upcoming features when I bought it.

it's a good thing. Now everybody knows not to work with this Dev and to not give him another chance.

He just ruined his own career.

He should apologize to my banned account. I was also mainly criticizing the random walking damage. It doesnt make sense that I'm walking down a hill and i lose 1/3 or sometime 1/2 of my life for no apparent reason.

I just complained about that on their forums and i got banned.

Unfortunately your story is far from unique...

It's really sad. Oh well, never touching that game again. Sadly, they got my money.
