Hey Guys! First of all, big thanks for the overwhelming support; it means a lot; it's one of the reasons why i decided to write this post and a pledge that i decided to commit to the game for the next six months and try my best to expand the game as best as i can, this means new content and bug fixes. The roadmap structure will be created later; I am currently coming up with a schedule and format on how I will be delivering content. I can't wait to reveal my plans! steamhappy When coming back, i did not have anything particular in mind; I just wanted to fix a few bugs where pirates get stuck, etc., that's all. But as i worked more on the game and saw players be quite enthusiastic about PP, I decided to change my plans... Additionally, regarding the moderation, as you all know, it's just me doing community management. It takes unnecessary energy to filter out trolls and toxic members within the community, and i have a stance where i generally try not to answer them; why should i give my attention to some troll instead of an enthusiastic fan? I have been thinking about how i will approach my communication with the community, and i decided to embody a role of a pirate captain in a literal sense and do PR to ease my job and remove emotion from the community management. So moving forward regarding the moderation, i will enforce a strict version of the Rules and Guidelines For Steam to save my energy and channel it into developing the product; what only matters is a good product, i am going to create an environment where that will be possible. So, from now on, consider that the community forum is a pirate ship or my home, and you are a crew or a guest. If you don't play by the rules, you will be banned; i will be walking you off the plank.
TDLR; 1) Big thanks for the support. 2) I will be working on the game for six months 3) i will ban toxic members without warning; PP forums are not a place for drama. Note: Last Night, there was a build malfunction; I fixed this. I believe there will be a few weeks of pain before i get the infrastructure in place, i am going to work towards automated testing of the game.
