I take this as an admission that no game will ever be made ("can do nothing").

This one actually makes perfect sense to me.
He has treated people who can and have done something for him very poorly. People gave him money to develop a game and he clearly hasn't done that. He's also reneged on the promise inherent to Kickstarter, which is that regular updates will be provided. And when some of his backers have complained about his failure and refusal to live up to his end of the deal, he has gaslighted and insulted them. And lately, he's progressed to outright trolling not only his backers but other developers and the entire "retro game community". If you have helped him or are someone who could potentially help him, he's been a real shit towards you.
But, if you have no interest in retro crpgs and/or no money to donate to Kickstarter projects, he's done you no harm. He probably comes across as a really nice guy, or at least a decent enough guy, to people who have done nothing for him and don't share his interests.
If you treated people who have helped you like dirt, you'd want to be judged on how you treat strangers too.

It's amazing how he thinks his game holds the future of the c64 market.
There's a future C64 market?
Probably. That system just can't be killed. It's a nice way to give programmers a challenge, since the system is so limited.

So many games appealing to nostalgia, nothing new is successful, the whole industry is trapped in a cage
Except Unknown Realm, it's the most talked about game of the last five years! With its upcoming release the factories of commodore will be rebuilt and every household will want a machine to run it on!

C64 still have a lot of cool games being released. Before and after this game was even announced, too.
That's bananas. lol
I'd heard that before on the Codex, it just never ceases to amaze me.

Most retro computers still have games being released, also retro video games. Some people just enjoy working in those limited environment.

Dev is raising 5 kids with some other full-time job he's probably lucky to get 1-2 hours of gamedev a week, he must be exhausted. Next time remember to thoroughly inspect the personal lives of developers you want to back on Kickstarter

I'm not defending the grifting, I'm pointing out that development was always going to go at a snail's pace.

Sorry, mate, this is not an excuse for this. He has all that time to shitpost on twitter, but apparently hardly has any time for gamedev and 0 time to keep supporters updated on the game.

Yes, developing JollyDisk™ and every other way he can show why he's supposedly worked at so many studios for such a short credits list.

No wonder he doesn't work for any current studios. I guess dominos pizza delivery needs people too.

It sounds like he is not releasing the game because of those 15 people who hates it.

"How could we possibly let all 15 of them down?"
Since he got only 4 Likes for the poll tweet of 81 Votes, that must mean the other 11 he is speaking of are those who "hate it" across all the sites UR was once promoted.
Then he lets everyone down by retweeting an actual update - to someone else's game:

From February no less. He really must spend all his time just browsing the net and doing nothing.
I must've been blocked by Laura and I don't ever recall tweeting over there. So she got pissy reading the codex. Typical panty-twisted twat I guess. Or are they blocking everyone on that twitter since it is supposedly game related? Maybe the postergeist banderSNATCH is her. Lol.
Like I don't have other ways to view....
....not like anything is going on.
