I wish I could have some better news...

It's not dead, we're still working on a new version, but it's SUPER slow. Sorry, we just don't have that much free time these days/weeks/months... Doing our best

[VorianStormstride]

Better than hearing nothing at all. Not dead, but not active, so let's just say it's in a coma. I'll be here waiting for your project to wake up ^^.

[Jazzumness]

That's quite the hiatus, but its still nice to hear from you

You had a very fun game would love to see it back up in any state.

[Achilles]

Is here any chance for revival?

The devs tend to log in here every so often but its been so long since any word the project is probably dead
Pretty big necro but im not the type of person to care about that

[VorianStormstride]

Well, if I'm gonna necro, it might as well be on the Day of the Dead. This game was truly one of a kind and I hope that the devs can at least provide an answer as to why they have remained silent for so long, or at least release the source code for another to finish what they started.

[komaru]

Agreed, personally, I'd love to see the source code released for this! Even if the devs are still working on It, it might provide them with some assistance if the source code were available.

[Zantos]

As much as I'd like to, the biggest issue is that we kinda lost the source code.

I'm however very eager to do another version (lots of ideas actually), but I just can't understand this newfangled Javascript thing

[komaru]

Sorry to hear that the source code was lost! I haven't really kept up with too much in the Javascript world, but I am curious, what is it you're working with?

[Zantos]

First version was a simple Apache (or nginx ? can't remember, doesn't matter) + PHP backend (symfony + mariadb, twig templating), with simple JS to refresh the pages.

But we were quickly limited with what we could do in terms of interaction, so when we lost the code and had to start again, we chose to step up and do an actual single page app (with React). Java backend too, instead of php, because that was what I was working with at the time, and offered more options.

Never really managed to go far with it, sadly. But it's more about motivation than anything, really. If you're motivated and interested, I'll like to discuss it with you

[komaru]

Hmm, I'm afraid my coding skills may be a little rusty, and I would have to read up a little bit on React, but I'm definitely a lot more comfortable with Java than php when it comes to backend stuff.

Motivation certainly isn't my issue, as much as free time is, sadly though, I'm not sure how much help i would be.

[kater2000]

source code are lost? wath a bad day. one question from a stupid man: are the game(or the games, i thing, there are 3 versions) lost too?

[Zantos]

Well, in this case (PHP), there is no difference between source code, and executable code, so yes

Necro?
Well, let's play on necromancy *mad laugh*

As much as I'd like to, the biggest issue is that we kinda lost the source code.

I can find the code, but hardly it necessary. Especially since lost database structure. If you mean first NORMAL version, which you did.

[Jazzumness]

Well im certainly open to a resurrection of this great game.
Pretty sure some of the other people who played are still around and would be happy to see its return in the future as well
The OP says reconstruction in process, do you have any details on that?

[komaru]

So glad this is being picked up again!
I'm afraid my free time isn't what it used to be, but I would still love to help in whatever way I can!

[Loranna]

Oh, is this in the process of coming back? That would be nice - especially if some of the extra functions that were hinted at in prior versions could be enabled ^_^

It was seriously a fun game to muck around in
