OCTOBER UPDATE:
It's been about a month since our last official check in. As always, we're still around and still busy. As you can probably imagine, our lives have picked up, but a lot of free time is going toward Retro development. Most recently, we've ensured features can quickly be converted from their previous state last year and be usable by our current setup. As proof of concept, we got NPCs loading in perfectly, and it took very little time to convert em! That's great news for adding features, as it means it will be a quick and painless process. This past month has been lots of research and general development.
However, the database hurdle still remains. Progress has been made, though much work still has to be done, and many things still need to be put into place. Without going into the nitty gritty (and frankly confusing) details, It's a tedious grind, but we appreciate the patience.
Finally, I just wanted to personally thank everyone for sticking with us. I've wound up saying this quite often, but the positivity, and more importantly the understanding from the community is awesome to see. We're not machines turning on switches, this is legitimately hard work on our developer figuring out how to make everything work with an otherwise outdated and confusing game.
I can understand frustration with us, but I'd like to remind everyone that this is and will remain a free project built out of our love for FusionFall. This isn't some kinda joke we're playing, we're not sitting on the game playing it in our free time, and we very much want to see everyone playing the game! These things take time and a ton of hard work, so once again, thank you to everyone. We have an amazing and quite frankly huge community considering everything we've been through, and it's great to see that through thick and thin, FusionFall keeps us together. I only hope to see us expand and have tons and tons of users playing Retro!
Giving it till November or December to release. We will see.
