Poking the bear = prodding the creator with a stick. A friend of mine back in the early 2000s was working on an custom engine for an adult game. He'd released 4 betas and was working on the coding issues to improve the game mechanics and let the fans know what he was working on. A couple months later, he declared the game as abandoned and shuttered the site because of all the people demanding he release the game and some of them were even declaring it as being abandoned. Myself and a few others have played the end result and it was awesome for an early 2000s adult game. He still has it and won't release it.
I'll give credit to many of the creators on this site like Shark and Tlaero for giving hints, being really patient with their fans, keeping them informed, and asking for help when needed. I know that some games end up being unfinished to difficulties on the creator's part. However, I've seen quite a few games end up as abandonware from creators getting angered with the comments left on their blogs. I know that's not likely here but was talking about it humorously in a roundabout way as a reminder. Keep up the good work!
