So in the end, with the exception of some people trying to re-make the game, in the end the game is mostly dead right? Because the last version is old as fuck, meandraco never said when the new version will be released, and i always just see him drawing stuff but i never saw him doing anything besides that, i stopped following him in the beginning of 2020, so thats why i'm asking.
On his blog he wrote in his end of 2020 post that he's still working on V3 and "can hopefully deliver it in the coming year".

Well...not being a cunt, but he is working in the update for almost 2 years...so i don't believe that this year he will deliver anything, IF he will deliver anything at all...if you get some devs that are working solo, making both art and the game itself, the most "slow" ones deliver an update every 4/5 months (unless some cases, where they are milking patreons). His art is really good, but she should get someone to make the programing and story part, at this point, he is more a streamer than a developer of the game.

A large part of me wishes ne never tried to remake the game systems. The game already played perfectly fine, at least to me, while the subject matter is so niche and hard to find content for. I still keep tabs on the project and hope.
Same, would rather he just spent time to think of more uses for those abilities, rather then gutting them and rebalancing everything.

There was an abilities rework? Current system is a little weird but functional, except for this one constant inventory bug. I really don't see any reason why the dev would be unable to bugfix a little then just add copious amount of content on top, if they wanted to that it. This game has so much unique style and potential and yet it's practically abandoned.

Thank you so much everyone! Hopefully, in the coming weeks I'll be able to get some artwork into the game with mods. Honestly if anyone wants to code some ambitious expansion for this game and needs art then just let me know, I'd be more than happy to help!

For the niche content the game covers, it has gathered a surprising amount of creative folk that wish to help out or make mods for it. The problem is the moment an update drops in the incoming years, all of that will most likely break with how the V3 is supposed to rework a bunch of stuff.

I'd be personally interested in helping out with an expansion, but again, it's probably best to wait for V3. After that there will be a couple of years before the mod breaks at the very least.

Here's a link to the current version, its mostly playable apart from the shop and battle system, which would require a different interface. Currently, I'm working on having the game load in assets before they need to be drawn, which would result in less lag. I had the software on github for a while so people could add improvements, but due to lack of interest from players and the fact that github has rules against this project I abandoned that.
Store only code there, just provide link assets in readme.md.
After all, there are dick drawing neural net on it and nobody seems to care much about it

Nice job on the art. Did you use Painter? Also anyone adding things to characters might want to consider separating any new writing into a separate txt file and using "change_diag_file" function to access them. Having most of the new stuff in a separate file will save you a lot of headache reintegrating your writing into a new version.

And yes, still working on the game. I'm just bad with blogposts.

100% agree! But then again that's exactly why I'd love to make the content, because it's so niche. I don't think there's a single other game that's like this, but the game is stuck at a stalemate for 2 years now, and people want more content. Even a small mod would do wanders for the community as they'd have something to sink their teeth into.

I'm also pretty worried that once the update IS released, the updates would come more frequently, making it harder and harder for people to make mods themselves. I honestly just wanna see this game thrive!

You should join the Discord server, lots of creative folk there that I'm sure would be interested in doing something for the game. That's how MD found out about your art as well.
