Before I start, as the title may suggest, this is more of a suggestion towards the devs communication and not about the game itself so much.

 

I feel like it would really help if the devs would release a monthly, or even weekly progress report. Just to say what it is they're working on and how things are going, even if it's simply saying "We're still working on the town square module and things are going well".

It can be kind of disconcerting to come to a game that you just heard about through word of mouth, and see that the devs haven't said anything about it in months, it makes it look like progress has stopped and that the project is dead. Or that the devs have lost interest and the project is progressing slowly, while in reality the project may be going on as strong as ever.

It just seems, as a newcomer, that the devs aren't really communicating with the community very well, or at the very least not very often.

I am very sure the did like 2 Q&A's  in January. 1 was on Friday the 13th and the other one was with the You-Tuber PowerGaming7 which was uploaded at the end of January. I think the did them which was more than enough for the month. Here are links to the posts about those 2 Q&A's:

Also A Exclusive Interview was released on January which was done in December, with Externa-Gaming.

That's great, I'm glad they're doing that kind of stuff, and I have seen some of it myself. 

All I'm saying is, that as someone who hadn't ever heard of this until recently, just taking a glance at the site makes it look like the project is hardly progressing, with only a handful of updates posted on the home page over the course of over a year. Especially with the large gaps in them, don't really instill confidence in the potential consumer.

I would imagine there's plenty of people, like myself, who came across this game by chance and take a look at it and say "Huh, I guess the game is dead" or "Looks like the project isn't really progressing" and move on. Now in my case I actually decided to do some digging because this is a genre that really interests me, however I think many people wouldn't.

Perhaps they could add some of those Q&A's to the updates section on the home page?
