As a developer myself, there isn't enough people subscribing to the Patreon for Komodo to make this a full-time job, or afford advertising space. I know Adventure has drawn in a lot of newer players actually, myself and a lot of my friends included, a couple of us who sub to the Patreon. If this had a team of a few developers or if Komodo was willing to have someone develop with him, perhaps the game would be adding new content at a faster pace and able to release things like the house decorator quicker.

I really resonate with @BK47 's reply. Additionally, I don't like the painting Komodo as being lazy for participating in forum games.. Without him the site wouldn't be around, I think he should be allowed to actually interact with the community. Starting with "only these people actually interact on the forums" and then getting mad that the creator is playing forum games seems.. a bit contradictory? My only disagreement with BK47 is I would really like a bigger community, actually. I would love to see more constant updates and a big enough community for item commissions to happen, I like small communities but this is too small for a game that depends on its' userbase for new decorations.

I really like @TheSilverSword 's idea regarding removing SuperPixcoins. I almost had someone I recommended the game to quit during the tutorial because they thought it meant you had to use some premium currency for speed-up potions. It could easily be simplified, imo.

For everyone in this thread who doesn't want the game to die, go sub to the Patreon. Give the developer more time to work on the game. There's like even a $3 option if you really can't afford more. Go post your cute houses on FB and Twitter and your socials, tell your friends about it. That's really the best way we can get something like this to grow, and I really hope the referral system is brought back for this reason.

As for the "no updates in two months since Adventure was released" thing.. It was released on October 1st. Which means Komodo was working on the Halloween event right up until it was Halloween, which even included an in-game event and cute new decorations and the cutest pixpet yet (sorry techtagon)! We've also had a new pixpet evolution, Draconeer, and it's been the holidays which I'm sure Komodo deserves time to celebrate as well. In my opinion, expecting huge content updates every month or two is a little fast for a pet site game and I wouldn't get your hopes up for something like that unless the site has a whole ass dev team working on it full time.
