Because the developer is crazy AF and blowing hot air. He is making working prototypes *for fucking ages*. I have been 'excited' more than I should. Got sick of false promises and crippled prototypes that never get anywhere past beyond a bunch of youtube videos or a buggy alpha releases.

Sadly. I remember him posting here, crazy guy yes. But I still want to play his game.

Sounds like he'd fit right in on the codex

He left. Codex was too much even for him. He left his most important post, though:
Actually we much prefer the developers who make their games. Even if it takes them 20+ years, as it did to one neanderthal. The ones that don't have the tenacity to finish their games also don't have the spirit to thrive on the Dex.

Not in the 2017 version, of course. It had just one level.

Well damn. I love messing around in construction sets.
Ho yes, I do prefer DEVELOPERS who make THEIR GAME. The guy is not a developer (rather a script kiddy fiddling with visual dark basic), and it's just a ripoff EOB - so not HIS game ; and look at the weird UI, mecanics and "innovations" he tried to introduce ? This is not really a GAME either.
Ho, and you should not compare even vaguely Cleve and Zorba. Those two are separated by several orders of magnitude in terms of capability to deliver.
Cleve have polished Grimoire AF for years (and you can feel it). Zorba is just polishing is almighty Ego rod in a frantic and haphazard way.
The dude is a nutter. Like, belongs in a home for people unable to engage in reality level. Doesn’t deserve anyone’s attention or support, only pity.
So Zorba is a wanker and Cleve is a man of culture?

I think it might still be nifty to mess around in. If he made the construction set solid and everything else was relatively stable one could dink around just for amusement.
I guess since covid maybe the question, "Is he still alive?" might need to be asked. (And what has he been doing since his last posts?)
