Most developers us anything below one (0.xx) to indicate a minor update and x.0 as a major update.
It depends on the developer on what they want to classify as major and minor.
Not all devs use this system and some only put 1.0 when the project is finished.

The second number literally indicates the number of releases since the start. So if you have a 0.7 it means there have been 7 releases (this one included). 7 major updates (as opposed to patches, which is the third number).
example: 0.8.3
0 -> no full release (full release would be 1)
8 -> 8th update since alpha launch/demo/first version
3 -> patch nr. 3 for the 8th release
(First numbers bigger than 1 often mean DLC in games like this)

The game does not have keyboard controls yet. But I wouldn't be surprised if they added them in the future. There's already been plenty of complaints about how tedious it is to move around.

I remember seeing somebody posting a cheat or program so i could add stats to myself and bypass the grinding does anyone know what it is? (it wasn't cheat engine btw)
There's a way to cheat in the game itself. Talk to the computer at the start. Otherwise what you must be thinking of is the save editor,

That's not necessarily correct. Lots of games aren't released until they are version 2.something.
You might also argue that 0.7 in this case is, in fact, 0.07.
At the end of the day, the developer determines how to version the development.
My projects (not games) usually reached above 1.5 before they were actually releasable.

Version 1.0 is used as a major milestone, indicating that the software is "complete", that it has all major features, and is considered reliable enough for general release. A good example of this is the

--- From Wiki, I know but it's pretty accurate
This has been my general understanding of software releases. 1.0 is general release, 2.0 major changes to an engine, etc. The .1, .2 incriments are generally minor changes(Or story continuation in porn games it would seem) and a,b,c etc are bug fixes, they can also be released as 1.1.1 though, as an example as a bug fix for version 1.1
This hasn't stopped people releasing al-sort of release numbers though, I've seen an alpha drop straight into 1.0 before, but this is due to the developers lack of understanding of software release versioning, Alot of amateur developers going against general consensus, but that doesn't make it correct. We just have to guage for ourselves on download a lot of the time.

Off topic? Yes.
So how far away is the slave route ?
or is it safe to assume it's only mentioned because it was in the original but it doesn't really appeal to the dev so he's putting it on a to do list indefinitely ?
