Hello FreeHolders. I apologize for the lack of planned updates. My family is moving again (the fifth time in five years!) in a very short amount of time, though by choice for once, and I have had to spend tremendous amounts of physical and emotional energy supporting this transition. However, there is some good news on the horizon as we are going to be bringing a new developer into the company to help us re-start the momentum and get this game back on a proper and consistent track, as it and you both deserve. And finished, am I right folks?!
On that note, we do not have a staff artist of any sort, which has been problematic as the game development continues. I am only capable of making simple graphics and retro character sprites, and my time would be better spent coding. If YOU are a graphics artist, if YOU have ideas about the art direction of FreeHolder, some demo work to show us, and are willing to work for share in the company, please contact us. We cannot pay a salary at this time. If you are of the same belief that this game can be driven to a high level of success, and want in on that process, we are interested in hearing from you! Send inquiries to [email protected].
A lot of extraordinarily positive changes are on the horizon, and I only hope that your patience and goodwill have not yet been totally exhausted by the sporadic development of this game. I want to bring a better experience to you all and am committed to making whatever changes are necessary to make this game the best it can be. I am going to be very busy over the next six weeks or so, but I promise FreeHolder will never be far from my mind.
Thank you for your support of FreeHolder. It means so much to me, and all of us here at RogueWare.
You all kick ass.
Chris
