Citizens,
This is an update on our development progress and plans for the near future.
Since we released Dream Engines a bit less than a month ago, we already uploaded 4 updates, some larger and some smaller, all based on feedback we got from our Early Access players.
Since then we've started to work on some of the roadmap features, and wanted to release one large update in August, and another one at the end of September.
Unfortunately, that plan is no longer possible. Due to COVID in the family (everyone is ok, no severe symptoms, thank god!), and the resulting quarantines, I now have to take care of two small children all by myself 24/7, no kindergarten and no help from their mother, for the next couple of weeks. Since I am 50% of the team, and the only programmer, this means that the August update will not be ready as planned.
Under these circumstances, we've decided to skip the large August update, and release the next update towards the end of September as planned, obviously making it a larger one that will include some features planned from both. We may still release smaller patches before that, as necessary.
This next big update is planned to include modding support, new content, balancing improvements, and improvements to the on-boarding (the tutorial and other things making the new-player experience better). In addition, we continue to fix bugs, tweak our systems based on feedback, and improve the UX and general quality of life.
I want to thank all our early access players once again for their support and feedback, and thank you in advance for understanding this delay in updates.
Tomer & The Suncrash team.
