OMG, 30.000000000000000000000000000000000000000%!!!!!!!!!

Yippee!!!

30%! yipee!!!!! 30%!!!!!

YAY! 30%!

Yahoo - I just can't wait.

Approx (from posts and frantic daily checks!)

7th Aug - 10%
10th August - 20%
25th August - 30%

So that makes it a few months away still? I suppose it depends on how complex it is - please be animals or farming - or give us a little clue pretty please...

Wow! 10% in 15 days is quick work, I think. 20% in 18 days is awesome. Maybe it's a game for handhelds or phones?? They'd be smaller and go more quickly. Any ideas?

Keep in mind that this percentage may not reflect the time investment expected; more likely it represents the percentage of programming done, and work may speed up or slow down depending on what they're working on, and how much coding each segment of the game requires. I want them to be done quickly,too, but I would advise against expecting the numbers to hold consistently, you may be disappointed if there is more difficult programming ahead.

Indeed. Sometimes it is found that a particular approach just does not work as intended, and a whole edifice of code has to be dismantled and rebuilt again from the ground up.

Exactly. Basically, what I'm trying to say is that the percentage of work completed doesn't necessarily match the time invested; don't be disappointed if progress doesn't match the timetable you imagine.

I think it's going to be out for around end of October or early November - isn't that when the christmas marketing starts for sales? I think it's going up quicker than VV3 or anything happened so that is my prediction - I think the last 10% will be testing and take ages.... but who knows!!

I was scouring the net for other sim games to try and not a lot works properly on an intel mac - so I hope the mac version comes out along side a pc one or I will go mad! It's great that LDW do mac versions and keep their forums going unilke others!!
