There's something sad about all these games just essentially disappearing off the face of the planet after a tiny blip of existence: 4 years from early access to dead. Lots of old games stick around and can be something people experience years later, but these are at best going to be memories and stories. What was the point of making it when it's not going to last?
I accept that the design of this game made it difficult to keep in existence without centralized funding, but that's also a decision the developers made when they made the game.
