Dragondeath: When I asked the developer for a gog-release of his "Project 5: Sightseer", he answered me, that he did not sold enough copies of "Windward" at gog, so he will not offer any new game on gog. He told me, that he sold on steam with factor thousand relatively to gog.
OK, he do not want me to buy his games on gog - he will not get more money from me, accepted!
OFFTOPIC, because this game is designed for linux, too:
Steam-Games, especially windows based ones, does not work on linux, reliable. (The steam play options does not work at my current System correctly - don't know why, but this is an other story).
Gog-Games are able to use my wine-prefix to start.
Just my opinion
Isn't that new game mostly co-op/multiplayer as well? At least Windward was single-player. OK, he do not want me to buy his games on gog - he will not get more money from me, accepted!

It's a shame that the game sold so poorly (although I bought it on GOG). People stated that the game was extremely broken. If the dev didn't take the time to fix and improve the game, then I don't think he's that good a programmer to begin with.
Besides the game's been os steam for more than an year and it seems to be "mehh" (even a very mediocre co-op game usually gets positive ratings on steam).
One thing's for sure: he's not gonna see my money no more.
