Hey
@Forumovod, thanks for your kind words! I want to respond to two of your points:
you are developing alone and if something changes in your life plans, users will be left with nothing.
This is not quite true - Waterhole licenses are perpetual, so you are entitled to use the version covered by your license forever, regardless of what my life plans are. You have full access to the source code and can alter, modify or extend it in any way you like. Granted, you may be talking more about key person risk with regard to future development of the software, which is fair enough to consider (though I have no plans to discontinue development of Waterhole!)
I think it was more correct to first form a community around the new engine, then monetize it. A little activity seems to show that things are not going well so far.
It depends what you mean by "going well". For me, the goal of this project is not really growth for the sake of growth, but rather it is to make a product that I am really proud of, enjoy doing it, and work closely with paying customers to make sure they're satisfied. I'm really delighted to hear these testimonials from
@Tyler DuPont and
@Matt - thank you both
You don't have permission to do this.
You're going a bit too fast! Take a break and try again in a moment.
