WARNING: INCOMING WALL OF TEXT.

I feel like the developer has a problem getting his priorities in order. I'm not a game developer, so I don't know how it all works and may show my ignorance here, but it seems strange to me to focus so much on multiple projects other than the one he actually received a substantial amount of money to make. He's got what, three games he's working on now? The Last Stop, his new "smaller scale" game, WTTG: the Recruit... not to mention that Deallocation game that he started showing off a few years ago, and we haven't heard a peep about where that one went! RWS has waited long enough (almost 4 years now?) and I think he needs to get goin' on it or everyone is going to completely lose interest in it. And it also seems really odd to get angry when people rightfully question when the game is being released. He doesn't update his YouTube to let people know what's happening, he doesn't post any development updates on Twitter for RWS (unless it's to reaffirm that it isn't cancelled or being pushed back even more), and the game's Kickstarter page sees no regular updates, so of COURSE people are going to ask him directly about what's going on. He gets so standoffish and defensive sometimes when people do bother asking him about it that it just paints a really bad picture regardless of where the game is right now. I don't believe he has any real right to get mad about it when he basically put himself in this position. I can't imagine what his thought process is, but I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. There must be some reason for him to focus on other games, whether it be what he sees as more necessary funding, wanting to further get his name out by releasing these smaller projects, etc. It just sucks because the two WTTG titles are excellent, RWS has a great concept as well. It would be horrible to see such a unique idea go to waste. I don't think that he ran off with everyone's money like many others do, and he IS working, which I suppose is better than him going completely silent. If he did that, then I genuinely would think he took the money and ran. I just wish he'd work on the one game everyone is really waiting for. I don't doubt that the Last Stop or those other games will be fun in their own right, but I don't recall anybody asking for them. People want RWS. Or at least some significant signs that it's still alive. Word of mouth just isn't cutting it.
