Hey guys! Just wanted to inform you about the current state of the 0.09 experimental! I started out with the goal to make very small experimental builds that you guys can try out and give me feedback to, but after a bit i started reworking/refactoring core-systems of the game (to this point around 80% of the backend-systems) because the way they were in 0.08 wasnot future-proof. Meaning that it was a lot of work creating new content (items/monsters/worlds) than it had to be. And If I wanted to add a new functionality I had to make weird and convoluted workarounds.
Having finished a major overhaul of the way that characters (players/monsters) are being handled visually and in the backend, im slowly approaching a point that enables me to easily create new systems and adding special traits to weapons/special behaviours to monsters etc. Due to the nature of those bigger reworks/refactors, instead of doing very small experimental builds, I will "finish" the first World with all its items/zones/monsters (including an adequate part of the new perk-system and spell-schools) and will release that content as the first experimental 0.09 build. That way you will actually have content to try out and give me feedback about, and i have a basis i can build on top of/change/expand. Really hyped/looking forward to getting that promised content out in your hands! Current estimate would roughly be in the next 2 months. Keep it up! Have a great day!
