Oh, that's right, was thinking of another dev.
They've got Andrew Tate over there roaming free now.

Thank you for the post and take care,You must be registered to see the links
I hope you're all doing well. I wanted to share some news that I received this past Saturday, which has had a big impact on my life and made me reconsider my priorities. After much thought, I’ve made the difficult decision to pause all activities related to RoyalCandy for the time being.
This wasn’t an easy choice for me, especially considering how much your support has meant in helping me live my dream of becoming a game developer and achieving financial stability. I’m incredibly grateful to you all for making that possible, and it’s tough to step away from something I’ve worked so hard on. But right now, this is the best decision I can make.
While I’ve always aimed to be open and honest with you, I can’t go into details about what’s going on personally. What I can do is pause all billings, so no one will be charged moving forward. It wouldn’t feel right to continue accepting payments without being able to deliver the work you expect, like some others might do in similar situations.
Thank you so much for the past seven years. It’s been an absolute pleasure being part of this community, and I’m deeply grateful for your support. I’m not sure when, or if, I’ll be back, but for now, I have to say goodbye.
Take care,
Jason

That above means what exactly it means, that the game is on PERMANT HOLD, and it MAY NOT come back.
So, yes, this might be the end of RoyalCandy (Jason), and No More Money, and any other games he had in the works
I wish you luck Jason, my dad had a heart attack 3 days ago, so I can relate to sometimes you have to step away, because life is more important.

Sorry to see this. This Dev is one of the most communicative respectful devs out there. I always disagreed with some of his storytelling methods, but he put his heart and soul into this game and others I assume aswell. I didn't see this coming at all

I can only assume that some new life circumstances require him to return to a higher paying job other than game development.
because no matter what, you can't quit your job( if game dev is his main job), because bills always have to be paid, unfortunately.

lets do some math......
1 USD = 4.82 Romanian Leu
+- $9,000.00 USD per month = $43,380 Romanian Leu
A family of four estimated monthly costs are $2,147.0 (10,308.50 lei) without rent.
A single person estimated monthly costs are $618.4 (2,969.20 lei) without rent.
Cost of living in Romania is, on average, 47.0% lower than in United States.
Rent in Romania is, on average, 76.0% lower than in United States.
this guy is buying a really nice house
go go royalcandy, start popping out those babies

Yeah trust me there are just a few jobs better payed than what he was earning on patreon and one of them is the president of Romania... soo i'm very sure this is not the reason why quit, he was making bank with this game for the country where he is...

He wasn't doing 9k per month you can see his patreon its around 5k which is still very, very good for Romania...lets do some math......

his patreon dropped by $3,000.00 per month since yesterday + how many other platforms is he taking payments from ??
bet they were making 14k per month
I think Steam was his only other AVN income source. Not sure where you got the $3k drop,

says he's down $1,200 over the past 30 days, and most of that appears to be a return to normal drop after each release spike.

Rip the guy was ambitious for his own sake but still was doing quality games. I hope he comes back but my bet he won't tbh.

With what he was making, it's almost certainly something happened in his life he REALLY doesn't want to talk about (personal, family, etc.) He wouldn't do it just for the hell of it.
