Hello everyone!
We want to start by extending an apology for the lack of updates and communication. We are still working on the game of course, yet we want to explain a bit about what has been going on:
The most important part is that the game is still alive and well and it will be released. The only question remaining is when. We hope to be able to answer that soon. However, until then, here is what has happened over the past few months:
We suffered a bit from feature creep, which means we had so many ideas and clearly limited time to finish this game. So as we had a huge list of features, we also needed to condense and better organize our plan to accommodate those implementation timetables. As a result, our estimated time table for the release of the game became quite skewed. However we have made some necessary adjustments to correct this.
Also, during testing, thanks to the testers and our own testing process, we found bugs that were significant enough to cause us a delay in our expected release date. As a result, we have now been focused primarily on fixing those issues and delivering a great game.
The good news is that we have in fact solved the problems (All of them). Now due to the delay we are in implementation phase for all of the fixes now that we have accurately diagnosed and planned the solution for. Now we have placed our entire focus on building the game and trying to complete it in a timely manner, hence the reason for the lack of updates.
However, now we will be showing and explaining everything that has been going on real soon. So we understand everyone's concern, but we can let you know that all is well and we hope you like the game when it is released, because we started developing this game with every intention to release a great game, and that has never changed. We anticipated challenges and we got them. However, we are clearly a dedicated team and as a result, will still be delivering a great game to you (Of course that is our opinion, you all will be the judge of that when the time comes).
So thank you all again for your understanding and once again, there will be more information to come!
