« on: March 18, 2018, 08:29:18 AM »Hey! Dodgy arithmetic aside, just a quick reply here. I *am* working on Starsector full-time, and as much as you might want the next release to be finished, I want the same thing ten times more. I just don't want to put out something half-baked without the necessary set of features coming together to make it fun to play.
Also: I wouldn't equate infrequent updates with a lack of progress - it's exactly the opposite; more frequent releases would slow the overall pace of development down - due to the large amount of extra effort associated with making a release - even though it would probably *feel* like it was moving more quickly.
So, um - I appreciate that you care enough about the game to find the pacing of the releases to be frustrating, and offer my apologies for that, but ultimately stand by it
Hey,
The update schedule is a bit frustrating, but the reality is you have something special here that doesn't exist anywhere else in the market. I suspect that is, in large part, because this is a passion project that you want to get *right*. I think that's the only way to create something like this--I've got tons of other mediocre games to play if I just want to play something right now, and I'd rather you take your time on this one. I really appreciate all your work. :-)
