As always, from the dawn of time, until the heat death of the universe, Animus is almost complete. He shows this excel sheet any time someone asks about it, because it shows so much completed bullshit that random viewers might think he is actually making progress, instead of the truth that this spreadsheet hasn't changed in 3 years.
The way that he reframes events and lies so casually is extremely upsetting to watch, because I've seen what people like him do when they manage to suck someone in close to them.
Animus hasn't progressed at all, in meaningful terms, in years. Until very recently he maintained the lie that he works on it every day. Very recently he stopped lying about that in particular and said he didn't work on it "for over a year" which of course is an understatement, but despite these statements being in complete conflict with one another (meaning at least one of them is a lie) he just can't admit he lied to his customers.
Steam flagged his game as abandoned because there were no updates for 14
months. This prompted Jason to do a panic update and start his "montly updates" which he references here. After three years of development, he hurriedly worked on and released a tiny "monthly update", late. So where did all of that three years of daily work go, Jason? Why is there nothing in the update? Yet listen to how he refers to the monthly update on his stream. "Yeaaaaah *stretch* we do monthly updates, it's our way of slowly chipping away at the rest of Animus, yeaaaahhh monthly update, we like to be transparent, check out this list of monthly updates we've done but let me just scroll really fast so you don't see it's just 20 x added a line of dialogue"
There wouldn't be any updates if Steam if didn't scam-flag his game. This is the kind of guy whose mother has to literally force him to clean his room once a year because guests are coming over, and once it's done, he leaves the door open going "yeaaaahhh I like to keep things nice and organized, this is basic shit people, am I right chat?"
