Happy New Year everyone!
I am very excited for 2025 as there a lot of changes for the game that I want to add. But before that I just want to make a small announcement on a change of the structure of progress update release.
Previously I been trying to do progress update as a single target content update. But this result in update release that weeks which is much longer than what I wanted as there could be weeks without any updates even though alot of stuff was added. So what I will do for this year is to incorprate the pre-update progress post into the progress update post but segmentate it into patch notes. What this mean is that the progress update from now on will still have a focus area but will also include others changes as well.
I also plan to change the version number a bit to use the formular as below:
<GameVersion>.<MajorUpdate>.<ReleaseTracker>.<ContentChanges>.<Bugfix Changes>
E.g. 0.11.0.3.0 <GameVersion>
0 = Pre-Demo
1 = Demo Release
2 = Pre-Alpha
3 = Alpha
4 = Beta
5 = Release
<MajorUpdate>
Any Major Updates starting from 0. Usually target at specific area of the game.
<ReleaseTracker>
0 = Pre-Release (Subscrbe to the Pre-Release branch to acces; non-stable version)
1 = Released (Will be on the main branch on steam which means all user will able to access the changes)
<ContentChanges>
Any Content Changes. Reset this number when move to a new milestone Major update counter. Otherwise will keep increasing for each build.
<BugfixChanges>
For any quick bugfix, especially in the future when the game is released.
