I have no idea where all the time went. It feels like only yesterday I came up with the idea of making a game about feeding a dragon, and now it's suddenly almost ready. There are only a few last tweaks and fixes left on my to-do list.
I've been busy polishing everything into something I can truly be proud of.
I've also built on the previous big addition - the Codex - and added Statistics and Trophies. You'll now be able to track your high scores, your progress, and all the absurd numbers you've thrown into the Scorchpot. The in-game trophies are linked to Steam Achievements, and there are 40 of them!
I have to admit something: I don't really like easy achievements. Unlocking one should feel like an actual achievement. Because of that, quite a few of the trophies are challenging... and some are very challenging. Hopefully that will make the completionists among you happy!
Another huge milestone has been localization. Thanks to several wonderful supporters and our Asian co-publisher, the game is now fully translated into German, French, Spanish, Czech, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.
I've been getting this surreal feeling about the game a lot lately, and seeing it available in so many languages only adds to it.
There's still more work to do before release... but it's looking really good. Better than I ever dared to hope.
