What's next for MMO98?

Hi everyone!

It's been an amazing first 12h since the release of the game, so I wanted to come in and give all of you lovely people an update on what to expect for the game.

First of, bugs and QoL. Whilst there weren't many (or any) real gamebreaking bugs, there were still things that weren't perfect. Missing localizations, unclear gameplay elements, broken achievements...

We've compiled a big list of them now, and will be pushing some updates over the next 16 hours to address these issues.

If you run into anything else, or just want to give us feedback, the best way to do that is through either the Steam Discussions, or our Discord server. We try to be as active as possible, so don't hesitate to let us know.

Regarding balancing, we will be doing minor tweaks as well, such as for example slightly reducing the threshold needed to reach the end condition, as well as finetuning the skill tree and research upgrades a bit, just to make the game feel a bit more smooth.

As for major gameplay updates, here I have less good news for those hoping on major content expansions. MMO98 in it's current state, is the vision of the game we've had from the start, and we don't feel like we have any other good ideas in the pipeline that would fit. I know this may be unfortunate for some of you who wanted more, but I'd rather end on a highnote than needlessly drag out the game to hit some magical playtime number.

We will keep supporting MMO98 through minor updates, but I don't want to promise you anything that won't be delivered upon.

I just want to say thank to everyone who bought the game, and especially those who left a review <3. Whilst we've been making games for a few years at this point, we've never had a response so overwhelming and positive before, so we'll do our best to make this game an amazing experience still.
