Going Forward
I really did not want this update to take a whole year, but right after my last update I was offered a contract that I couldn't pass up that turned into a job. I lost that job (Yay game industry!) and picked up a couple other contracts. Now I have some money squirreled away and my contracts are nearly up.
I hope to add some features (Loadout Switches? Haptic feedback? Achievements?) to the game in the coming months that I'll need for the next set of levels, so stay tuned for more updates.
Also you may note that there is no Roadmap on this update. I do not think that old roadmap is reflective of how I think I should move forward, I'll put another one together soon enough.
As always thanks so much to the wonderful little community, you guys are so kind and it keeps me chipping away at this ridiculous project. Can't wait for you all to see the full campaign of SWORDCAR
Keep Slicing & Cheers,
Peter
