I strongly prefer the latter as well. Though that brings up th question, how often is "frequent"? I'm aiming for end of this month for the current set of changes - there are a few bigger things I want to try to add. More often than that might be impractical due to some extra work around releases (testing, etc).
Also, as there's no auto-updater right now, getting the new version involves downloading it and re-installing. I'd like to simplify that process at some point, but getting it to work right across all 3 platforms is tricky.
Some features simply take longer to implement, though - I suspect that the first version to introduce layer 2 (open world, travel, etc) gameplay would have a bit of a longer lead-up to it.
Down the line you might consider getting a bug tracking system, but for the moment the current setup is fine given the relatively low volume.
Yep, but I do hope to put this off for as long as possible
Not for any technical reasons, but for the annoying overhead that a bug tracking system brings to fixing small bugs.
Looking awesome so far. Keep up the good work, and can't wait to see how the empires and RPG side of the game work!
Thanks! I'm looking forward to getting all that working, myself
