Hey, it's the main dev here. I've just started a Patreon campaign to help fund my game development, which I do entirely on my own time while also juggling a full-time college schedule. If you loved the game, and especially if you'd like to see it translated into other languages and made accessible to a much wider audience, please consider making a donation.
If you haven't played the game, or if you'd like to share it with a friend, you can also pledge at $3/month to receive a free copy of The Whisperer in Darkness.
Ever the praises of Great Cthulhu.
