I'm just wondering what make you think you were right and what was disappointing in this release ?
First of all i am agree that Cyberslayers is more complicated game than CoL. As IT specialist with 15 years experience myself i know how much work you need to put in games like this and sorry if it sounds offensive but in my opinion progress is VERY slow. Only if you rewrite code for every updated branch from the beginning and i am sure you are not. Most people who connected with IT got understanding of developing projects like this. I am sure that you made code where you need just add new lines and events (and find all bugs). Lets talk about animation and new scenes: I am not expert here but as my friend explain it to me you must have profile for every model and editor which make animations much easier. Yes it is not easy job don't get me wrong but still patterns you use more or less the same. I do not say you use "ctrl+c/ctrl+v" but still many you scenes got much in common which i am sure make you work easier. All i sad isn't mean that your work is just "gathering flowers on a meadow" and i am sure there was hard times with coding and modelling.
But lets talk about your updates. Again my goal not to offend you in any way. At least for CoL as finished project you got my respect and if you still support it well i hope to see it someday as i play every new version of it and keep my eye for every your post back in a day.
1) I do not have all the picture (story atc.) but all your branches incomplete. Worst thing player can see it is "it will be in next update".
2) How you add your scenes and branches. Fred was your first more or less complete branch but it still incomplete. Police office and all NPC there and same i can say for every branch. Why you add new location? It is empty an useless at least right now (Redlight district).
3) Same as 2: Yes you are developer and we do not see this game as you see it but why can't you make main storyline and after that add some other branches? Really bathhouse? Oxygen's bar? Rising Star Studio? You spend your time on this and let others more old and in my opinion more interesting branches behind. Seriously if you just focus on police office and cyberslayers HQ progress will be much better. Yes this side branches interesting don't get me wrong and make world more complex and make your game and development complex too.
As you can see i was really into your game and it hurt me to say that as i see it you lost your interest in development your game and it happens long ago. You MAKE yourself to do it that's why your progress is so slow and that's why you add new branches: you are bored and you treat your game as work. Sorry if it sound offensive it wasn't my goal at any way.
I hope you find your lost spark and make a good game and i wish you the best on this way. Your ex-fan. Sincerely.
