3 or 4 more months?! I have been very patient as I understand all of the surrounding circumstances, but these additional months means we are looking at a time frame between releases of 9-10 months! Ouch.
This Waterfall development methodology is a killer. Agile development please. :D

again, i really could be wrong!
i may have misunderstood.

i'm trying to find the place where i read that to confirm...
but really, it felt like there is a lot more that he wants done before updating.

The constant "when is the next release" question :) I wish I could get an answer to that as well.

It all depends on how much help we get writing quests and dialogue, and how much time it takes. The major part of the time that goes into a release is, as you might know, writing the conversations and coming up with the quests for the new areas.

Considering how much is already finished for v0.6.11, I would estimate maybe something like 4 weeks from today, we might have a very early alpha version ready.

Basically, what is left until we can have alpha for v0.6.11 is:
- Major quest for Remgard completed
- One additional minor quest in Remgard
- General conversation for other non-quest NPCs in Remgard
- Create & balance droplists for new monsters.

Hope that answers your question for the moment.

For those of you that aren't already, you are also very welcome to follow me on Google plus, where I try to post semi-regularly about upcoming changes to Andor's Trail, and what parts have been completed so far.

Hi nyktos, thank you for taking me to this thread. And thank you guys for being very transparent about the developments of the game. Playing in Blackberry Playbook, since it supports Android apps already, is pretty much the same experience with the interface and response system of other Android tablets. :-)

I really cant wait for the release. Haha. The game keeps me awake til 5am. :)
