Testing has been going well, the testers have been finding lots of issues, and I’ve been busy fixing them, just what you’d expect!

As I’ve said, this update makes some pretty significant changes, so there are lots of things to go wrong, and in particular, the new multiplayer features are needing lots of finishing details and tidying up. We’re finding the odd issue arising from multiplayer code that I wrote in the first few weeks of development, over 9 years ago!

But there’s been nothing major that I haven’t been able to sort out fairly quickly, and we can now be sure it actually works at a technical level. I’m still not sure yet on how many players or sapiens it will ultimately be able to handle, but the multiplayer engine design is holding up well, and will be a solid foundation going forward.

Most importantly, despite the issues, we’re having lots of fun. Just having other people’s tribes in the same world adds so much to the game.

So it’s very exciting, I can’t wait to get it out to you too, but I do still have more things I want to finish off first. More bug fixing for me, more waiting for you, but just know that I’m working hard, the testers are testing hard, and good progress is being made.
