So it’s Sunday evening ... Touch later than usual for an update! I’ve mentioned it more than once that this past week was deadline week at Uni, and … things got rough. :D There was just no way I could juggle work, University, and Samphi this week so unfortunately Samphi bit the bullet. Sorry about that!
Just dropping in for a real quick update to assure you I’ll be back this coming Friday for a final Xmas update before the New Year, and to discuss a couple of things.
Thanks for the understanding, let’s get to it. :)
v0.2j has now been moved to the stable branch with the addition of a quick patch. I just realized that pressing 1-8 no longer changed your item slot! BOOO. That’s been fixed and pushed so we should all be running the same version.
Check this update for a refresher on the changes that v0.2j brings over v0.2i
I keep missing your guys’ discussions and it really bothers me! -_- I HATE the fact that Steam doesn’t notify me when there’s a new post! If anyone knows if there’s a way to enable this please let me know. For those that posted and haven't received a reply I’m going to reply to them all now!
What happens is I see notifications from these new updates, reply to them all, then think ahh, all notifications are sorted, but I’m neglecting discussions. Apologies, and I’ll do my best to check the discussions as often as possible.
One last thing that I want to acknowledge is Samphi's falling rating. The game is till at 69% positive which great, but it was higher and the game is now down as ‘Mixed’ review. I just want to say I totally understand this.
When I launched Samphi it was my full time job and I planned on taking a year off from Uni and working on it full time after launch. Launch was very quiet so that couldn’t happen, so now Samphi’s priory got lowered behind Uni and work. I totally understand people throwing up a negative review for lack of content. 100% fair.
Just acknowledging this to say I see them, I think they’re fair, and I will be continuing to work on Samphi indefinitely just at a slower rate. This game has been my labour of love for years now and I don’t intend on stopping. I’ll always be working on it and improving the experience for those that don’t mind the slow dev cycle. :)
So Uni is finished and I’m back at it. I want to put out one more update before Xmas and the focus of this one is the new tree and wood types! Should be good, and won’t be late this time! See you then. Ciao. :)
