One of my pet peeves when it comes to a Patreon, a project cancellation is always due to a personal issue when they have not got a valid reason why they have halted the production of a long term idea and when they do have a valid point, they are incredibly secretive about it and in reality, should inform all people that are part of their Patreon what the reason behind it is about since they are dishing out money for the creator.
Many of their Patrons could have signed up solely to keep a close eye on the status of this game and to only be told, after months if not a few years that the game is suddenly coming to a stand still because of a random personal issue that only seems to affect the game and not their other work.
If Hotred wants to be less of a dick about it, he could at least explain the reasoning, offer to show what has been worked on until the point it was cancelled as a form of free public demo and just outright apologise to those who was looking forward to it and offer them something in return, otherwise he will lose a hell of a lot of Patrons at this rate.
