The Future

So what are our future plans?

Coding complete but we are currently on a budget shared hosting package and are looking for feedback before we upgrade to something bigger. We think less than 30 people have ever seen the actual game - might be less than 20 - might actually be closer to 10.

The membership system is code complete with initial chip counts and map and blueprint storage limits based on level.

Challenge mode is partially written but still in early test.

Coding complete. We are just not sure how our puny little shared hosting package ( which costs about the same as a Netflix subscription ) would handle more than 3 users at once. Hence the test stage.

We have some rough artwork as well as lists of potential new variants of existing blocks plus a few more scenery blocks that need a small bit of work. However we have paused work on new graphics. Before we commit to the very long and intense task of hand drawing multiples, if not dozens, of different bitmaps all from multiple directions - in GIMP - we want to be absolutely sure we are creating the best new blocks.

There have been other mechanics in earlier versions of the game that were never fully implemented but the code and artwork is still on file and could probably be updated. Conveyor belts for carrying small objects or cargo as well as connected iron tubes for directing gas were both worked on but never fully complete.
