Yeah, I know! They just bumped the price up to $60 which was originally around $25 Plus it's an early access game, so a lot of it is controversial

This might not answer your question but this is the closest one I've found The last question, number 8

Hello! Well, like everyone else, I'm super excited for this game but I'm also curious on the development of Identity. I know it will probably take a couple more years to finish the game, it will have a lot of possibilities more to come. I'm a hobbyist, I enjoy making digital art, 3D modeling, and programming, but I mostly focus on art (which should change this year). But I hope in the future to be a future indie developer just need to learn java, but I have a tiny experience with C++. Anyways, that's me!

That's so cool! I'm also very excited for Identity and I guess I'm also a digital illustrator. But I'm more excited for the game mechanics since this is going to be a very big game and it's all possible However don't get too excited, it may take a couple years till it finally finished, but I think they have finished all the base coding and just doing some tweaks to it. But it's going to be great! So welcome to the Identity community!
