Instead we made sure that we approached it from a clean technical perspective, rebuilding everything that wasn’t implemented properly from scratch, and getting rid of that fabled “spaghetti code.” Our hard requirements are to offer you a game experience that is as close as possible to the current one, while adding some improvements and setting us up for a long and productive road of future changes after we get the initial launch version out the door. We could have focused on visual eye candy to always keep up appearances of making meaningful headway. When we set out to tackle this project, we wanted to make a point of not doing a hack job. “But why is it taking so long?” we hear you shout out next. As discussed in our recent producer letter, we are separating it from Month of the Mad God to give both projects the focus they require and deserve. Based on our most recent scoping of the work we still have left, we can tell you that we are definitely planning to release it this year still. “But when will it finally come out?” we can almost hear you asking – and we feel the same way. This marks an important milestone, as it should enable us to start testing all game dungeons in quick succession. Internally, we have already released a version that finally allowed us to play the core game loop of going from the Nexus all the way to Oryx, killing the big bad himself, and then back to the Nexus. If you are interested in getting a few more details and the most recent change log, keep on reading.
