One man rookie developer so it's understandable if there are errors.

From the Steam forums:

"So, based on his twitter :

"The build I was trying to upload failed. I'm genuinely too exhausted to continue. I'm going to take a bit of a break. Anything I say will just sound like an excuse at this point. I'm not doing well and I need time to recharge and be healthy so I can tackle this again. I'm sorry."

So i don't know if it's "imma sleep it off and try tommorow" or "indefinitely postponed"

D'oh! I guess I can stop refreshing that page now.

I was gonna grab it and give it a quick spin so I could give some impressions.

This time I really believed it would be released. I'll take it off my wishlist once again, and this time, until the game is finally released.

Yeah it's looking like a scam or the the developer is just really incompetent.

Updates yesterday claimed it would release and then on Twitter he then claimed he doesn't have a fully working build of the game. Something smells off here folks.

I don't see a "buy" button on steam so how is it a scam if you can't pay for it?

Read above posts.

He has tried to release the game for quite a few years but never did. Always gives excuses, and this time he doesn't even have a working build of the game.

Which means you can't play a game that's not working and he can't upload.

Also again if you read my post at all I said a scam or very incompetent developer.

If I had to guess, he seems burned-out right now. It's not a scam though. If that were the case, he would have just released it with whatever problems it has. He's not making money off of delays.

Not much of a scam unless he is taking money without releasing a game..... while he might or might not intend to release a game as long as he doesn't take payments no harm done.

Why are people stuck on the scam word. Does anyone read posts anymore?

Also you don't need to accept cash or money to be called a scam.

It's his intent and methods that are in question. :unsure:

Two days now without an update.

Alaloth also got delayed because of a Steam error.

Still have the latest DragonAge and Red Dead Remaster to play. 🤷‍♂️
