getting worried

[alunasmoon]

im just wondering is there a reason there have been like no updates since jan i mean we are in mid march and its not only getting quiet on the forums but i feel like even if it is takeing alot of time on things that we should be updated a lil better im getting sceptical of things moving along ....

Devs are readying to roll out big one, story mode... with a few additional, couple patches worth, features.

[cowboymrh]

Everything I've seen says "Spring 2016"

That means The Devs "officially" have until June 19th to release the Storymode  .......... last day of spring!

If nothing by then........I'll start worrying with you!!  he  he

i mean ive read the post and i understand but its been dead silent not even a sneak peak since they announced it

I watched a vid from GDC 2015 where Raphael stated quite frankly he wanted the release of Hinterland's first game to be a big deal.  Parties. Balloons. All sort of game community interest and coverage.  He wanted to withhold content until that moment.  For impact.    

But I don't really get it.  I'm only still watching to see how the gambit plays out.  Actually, I'm half-curious to see if it really is a gambit or if they just forgot to do any work on the story for 15 months.

It will come. Whilst news inst always forth coming, i wouldn't be surprised if the silence means final polish on a milestone release for the company. They have stated Spring 2016 as the official release date now, after some lines in the sand were passed.

 

As  @cowboymrh  said, start worrying if you haven't had an update from the devs or on steam by the end of spring

I'm sure the silence is because they're hard at work, consuming mass quantities of pizza and soda, to finish the Story game.

Not to mention coffee and various other forms of java juice!

And they haven't gone completely dark. @Raphael van Lierop does still check in on the forum from time to time.

@Raphael van Lierop last post was on march 12, I guess this was a busy week.

There is still smoke from their cabins stack, but somebody take them a bag 'o jerky and cup of coffee just to be sure.

Raphael and the community engagement team were at the 2016 GDC, games development conference in San Francisco. Here are some tweets: https://twitter.com/raphlife

The team isn't large but here's what we know about them. http://hinterlandgames.com/studio/our-team/

The focus at this time seems to be community engagement and story mode development. Everyone I know is excited about the first episode of Story Mode and I'm fairly sure the pressure is on so in that respect, no news is good news!

Patience Grasshoppers!

We're busy, working hard. As always. We'll have more to say soon.

The whole community team was at the Game Developer's Conference last week as there was a large community focus in talks there, so this is why we've been a bit more quiet over the past week.
