Update on the state of ADOM II 0.2.4

Hi folks! I just wanted to let you know that I'm working on 0.2.4 as intensely as I can as the "bad cold" I caught during our trip to South Africa still is plaguing (I wonder whether it's really 'just' a cold?). Right now I'm going through the issues reported in the bug database and fixing them one by one.

The next (and final step) will be some play testing by me (and maybe I'll call for a handful of other people on Facebook for support) to see that I can play the game for a couple of hours without running into any problems. And then the next version will be released.

So we are on a good way to "release early, release often". Nonetheless currently there are still too many bugs in the system that I happen to notice within ten minutes of play. After 0.2.4 the amount of features added between releases will be greatly tuned down to reduce the probability of undiscovered bugs and increase the amount of early releases.

Stay tuned!

  1. Hopefully you start feeling better soon. I really enjoy seeing this game develop and can't wait to see what it will look like once it is completed.

  2. Quality spicy foods are among the best ways to expedite beating down a cold---good idea to shoot for a "playtime until bugtime" benchmark.

  5. You may want to get that "cold" checked out. My uncle and aunt went on an African trip in the fall he got a cold. A month later it was still around so he went to the doctor and had to get on antibiotics for the infect that was spreading.

  6. If there is no significant improvement by Monday I'll be with a doctor. And yes, I'd love to have a ring of cold resistance ;-) LOL...
