Mining is getting reimplemented, little by little.



I shall try to post every now and then to give you some insights into what we are doing. Next step is probably the fighting system.

Sweet. For a second there I thought we're getting the board drying system from Salem, then I remembered those are stockpiles

A little critique on graphics, because there's not much else I can criticize The inventory borders are too busy, and the kilns pop out too much, almost as if they're photoshopped in.

Anyway, what systems need to be in place before this goes public? I hope it's a fairly short list with just the essentials, we can do without cheese or jewelry for starters. Though even implementing essentials without proper playtesting seems kinda iffy to me, mainly where the combat system is concerned.

that is a beautiful sunset. do we get to see the sun?

Is that a stack of bricks I see? What would be the purpose of stacking bricks, other than saving space? Brick houses perhaps? Same with those wooden boards and what looks to be stones.

Overall great job, looks really cool, the minehole looks like a big ant hole though

I think the main things missing are combat and a mapgen. I agree that we hardly need to start out with cheese-making and silk, but the game is still a tad poor on stuff; there's hardly even anything to eat.

This is beautiful!

Next step is probably the fighting system.

Hopefully heights give bonuses to marksmanship (and maybe view range)!

Do you have a list of things needed to consider it ready to release, or are you just winging it?

Stockpiles, basically a pretty, immersive version of building signs. I've a feeling I might start playing Haven 2.0 when it comes out.

Why do you even feel a need to ask? :)

If you want rigorous planning, roadmaps, spreadsheets and time schedules, I suggest you seek out a Mr. John Carver. ^^
