Daniel Haddad, Creative Director (Blacksmith)
Working on the Defense changes, Stat Allocation System, and planning a cool upcoming event with the team.
Also here is a riddle:
“I bask in the twilight
I strike from the shadows
The shadows writhe around me
I am the darkness
The darkness writhes
Twilight falls upon us all
What am I?”
Guess correctly and win a “correct!” reply that I will post! First to guess correctly gets an imaginary cyber cookie!

Adam Stow, Associate Producer (TE_Stow)
Signing off on adjustments to Little Horn Valley. Let us know if they work for you when this goes live soon.
Jason Yu, Associate Producer (urfyness)
We’ve started Stabilization Week which is where we take a look at all the work we’ve done for the Milestone, figure out what makes it in and doesn’t, and fix as many bugs as we can in a week. We may have found the bug that was causing our social taverns to poop itself (Bad social tavern! Bad!) which in turn, is causing a lot of issues that are affecting all of our wonderful fans. Some possible bugs this may fix are the Daily/Monthly Missions improperly resetting, some instances of the game failing to save, and infinite black loading screen.
Javier Barreto, Lead Software Programmer (javo)
Stabilizing a.k.a. bugfixing/polishing.
We have found and solved some nasty issues with our servers. I can’t really say everything is fixed, but we are looking good. Having said that … part of my job is preparing the team for what is to come: NEW COOL STUFF!!! a.k.a. new features. Thus I’m working my head around what we need and how can we do it....… Yes; sometimes I feel I know what the designers will require next. Sometimes I’m totally lost. =P
Last but not the least: We are out on PS4!!! Check that out! I can’t find enough words of gratitude for the team responsible for that -- the Human Head Studios guys. Those guys are busting their a… ehhh … killing it! Thanks!
Ok … enough said. Thanks for your support (and reading this).Keep your eyes/ears open for incoming announcements… And enjoy the game!
PS: Don’t forget to check out the PS4 version!
