Hello everyone,

I’ve been working on adding new features and some of them did not work as I’ve planned and broke other systems in the game. That is why the game was not updated for a long time. I think it is better to update when there are stable features.

I’ve been working on improving the gameplay and fixing the reported bugs. While doing so, I’ve realized that some of the systems must be completely rewritten to allow improvements. For example, the price generation seems like going linear except there is an event and there is a limit to minimum and maximum amount that a coin price can change in a year. This is because the price parameters are pre-generated at the beginning of a new game, so that we have reasonable prices (coin price not going from $500 to $50000 in a year). We need a new system for price generation to allow random seasonal events (for example, if other buyers are buying so much of a coin, price can go up according to that).

I’ll be back with a revised roadmap and will continue to improve to game. The game will not leave Early Access until all the features are completely implemented and stable.

As always, feel free to share your suggestions.
