It is indeed, tho the devs still kinda lerk.... If you have issues with the game don't expect it to be fixed.

Nor expect any further updates, kinda sad as it's a fun game.

Hi everyone. It is true, we are not making any changes to the game itself anymore but we are still keeping the game servers up and running. So if you do have any connection issues please get in touch via support@fairydist.com so we can find out what's wrong.

Making this topic sticky so that this information is always available.

Could we please get some honest and transparent information on the future of the game? Do you have any intention to ship it to another developer that could use the codebase, or even open it up to the public for modding or something? I mean think of it this way please guys, it's a FREE game and none of the packs that you still allow people to buy, are remotely worth it any more. In fact, it's kind of dishonest to keep selling them.

If you opened it up to the public and released the codebase on Github or something you'd probably find it would become an eSports sensation in no time at all. I know for one that I would mod it and play the heck out of it (at least if it was written in C++ or C#).

I realise it's not the most common thing to do but seeing as you guys self licensed the game. It's not like it's impossible. I check in usually once a year to see what the state of the game is like and it's just super sad that it falls increasingly further into obscurity.

Please consider doing something... seriously.

As I said in another thread, I am a game developer myself and if my game tanked this hard I'd either ship it to another publisher for a really low price or at least release the codebase and allow people to do what-ever they wanted with it. I know it's a bit more complicated than that with intellectual property rights and so on, but there's definitely more that you could do which you are not remotely doing. Keeping the servers up and paying for them but literally doing nothing else with the game just seems like a total moot point. At least open it up so people can host their own servers and have access to some kind of admin panel or something. For the love of god.

Hey Gin.Zo (and everyone else lurking),

sorry for the lack of announcements & thanks for the continued enthusiasm (sincerely). We are aware of the theoretical options you mention, from selling the game to licensing it to open-sourcing it and have considered each of them. None of them are in fact straight-forward or easy but all of them are still on the table. If you have a concrete proposal (and the experience needed to execute on that proposal) please do get in touch with me directly via alex@fairydist.com and we'll talk.

Thanks,

Alex
