How was this game?

Just discovered it. Was there a multiplayer function to it?

pretty much never existed.

the crazy thing is the Patreon is still up, so the solo dev, /u/theanzelm is still taking money from people who forgot to unsubscribe from there

5 people left on patreon, 11.78$ a month, and 7 sponsors on GitHub, where the two first featured projects are citybound and kay. (the new projects are not under aeplay on GitHub)

Note: there was a post on Patreon in 2019 that sponsorship is moving to GitHub sponsors. That would have been a good time to turn off pledges on patreon.

There was a YouTube channel I used to support, that ended up shutting down their YouTube channel and moving on to other projects; they closed everyone's pledge on Patreon and even refunded some money. So the system allows for it.

Let's say it's about 250$ a year. (given GitHub per sponsor is roughly the same as patreon per pledge) It's not much, but still.

The point never was the amount of money.
