Here's how I see it, work with me on this. People don't buy the powerups with money, but rather Gaiacash. Doesn't matter what method they use, they are sending gaia money for Gaiacash. There's no form saying What do you plan to spend this on? How much do you plan to use for each category? There's no who what when where why how. That would be ridiculous, right?
You're saying, "Hey, I like your site enough to give you money in exchange for this Gaiacash you offer." Buying powerups does not automatically entitle the money to go to zOMG, because hey, you donate to the site and not to the game.
I don't mean stop buying powerups at all. Remember, doing so tells Gaia you're interested enough in the game to use their given currency (Gaiacash) on this game. If enough interest is shown then they take the money donated to the site and allocate it to the game for improvement.
Basically Gaia isn't seeing the interest in the game for any of the money to be worth spending on it.
Edit: Getting free Gaiacash does not make this any less correct. Same principal of earned so the site could make money, not the game itself.

If Gaia fails to see interest in a game they make it could lead to better improvements on another project.
However, just because Gaia lost interest doesn't always mean the players lost interest too.
And that's the problem, Gaia is either really ignorant to it's players on a shelved game or we are just to demanding and whining like little kids thinking we can get what we want always.
But it doesn't mean simply that Gaia should just give up.
Has it thought about future games that carry improvements?
If they can improve games and see it's making profit then they could revisit past games and have them refunded with a majority of the budget to direct them in the same fashion.
Then again, it's a high stake gamble.
Tell me though, when isn't Gaia trying to go broke playing high in the lottery?
Of course they can see the interest. We're too loud to be ignored. There just isn't enough for them to feel zOMG is worth it.
Which shows of how much a pessimist Gaia can be at times.
