Hello everyone, a minute of technical information from Honeybadger.

Our game is written in javascript and uses web technologies, in other words it's actually a web page. At the moment, the main data seize of the game is made up of graphical assemblies and electron - a specialized engine for displaying web pages with additional functionality.

We plan to get rid of electron. When we go online no one will need to download offline builds, but simply open a web page in the browser. However, local builds will also be created if it is suitable for someone.

With graphical data, the problem is different, we can not afford to use whole images, they are too large, which is a stumbling block for porting to mobile platforms and for online implementation. Therefore, we have to cut them into layers and make up a "collage". We can correctly pack these fragments into "atlases" with the help of specialized software. But to conveniently compose a final image from them, we had to come up with and write several things, a addons for the graphic editor and in-game support for this additional level of logic.

Also support was provided for loading textures "on demand" and unloading from memory. After the optimization is over, we'll start preparing the game for porting to mobile.

Web-video-gaming is not so full of ready-made solutions and documentation as a desktop and therefore constantly have to learn something new. Your help gives us the opportunity to experiment and evolve, and we are very grateful to you for this.

Awesome work.

Тишина... Я понимаю, что софт для анимации изучаете, портированием занимаетесь и так далее. Ну хоть какое-то мини-превью то можно сделать. Несколько скриншотиков, да чиркануть про несколько ключевых нововведений в следующей версии. А то 0.2 вышла три месяца назад (если не больше), а чего ждать толком и не понятно и ждать ли вобще.

"Web-video-gaming is not so full of ready-made solutions..." Hey now, Impact.js is pretty awesome :p I wanted to do the same thing with ACADEMY34 tbh, but we chose speed over quality. And so now we use Ren'Py *shiver*. I'm jealous you get to do this, Honeybadger. You do a great job though, can't wait to see the next update!

Unfortunately it's the earlier the better. But you can't please everyone right? In order for them to attempt to please everyone in the near future, we pc players have to go without for a while. I agree the game needs more meat on its bones before taking attention away from content, but logically it's better to do it early. But they're just focusing on mobile players for now, then once that's done they'll focus on us both at the same time. Hopefully :P

I think porting the game to mobile is a great idea, but a little early for the game in this state. You guys must focus on the game updates and contents right now.

I think you would benefit a lot more making more frequent game updates. Each month or two. Not neccerely big ones and maybe after game version 0.5 or something similar would try mobile when game has alot more content. More frequent updates means more people will support the game. . So far game has a lot of nice things about it. But biggest disadvantage is very long developing cycle between patches.

I don't really care about mobile :/ but good luck

The collage system sounds like a really good system, hopefully it allows for more freedom during development. I do question why a mobile port is considered this early and whether or not it will affect development speed. Either way, good luck, I'm very excited for the newest updates.

So, when is update guys? You told about first week of April, but...you know
