Of course I know what the game is. I'm one of the developers, after all. And we're immune to taunting, too! I'm too mature and dignified to go "neeeener neeeener" though, so I won't do that! \:D

Ladycfii, will you please tell us !! \:D
I the producers and programmers can't give you a date, even if they wanted to. Programming take more or less time, depending on what the task is, depending on whether the approach taken is ultimately suitable, and whether different approaches can be woven together.

I don't think there can be accurate predictions where programming time is concerned.

Don't forget that the time Barbara spends on answering questions on this in the forums means that she can spend less time on development, thus delaying the new game's release. \:D

I think the point is . . . she probably doesn't KNOW a release date with certainty, because they don't KNOW when it'll be done.

This also means we'll get it sooner - the game is done when it's done and released when it's done, too, rather than waiting for a release date.

One serious question for Lady C - will it be distributed immediately to the various online vendors? I for one got my introduction via Steam.

I think it will be just like vv3, when bugs are fixed.

In the past new games have been made available first on the LDW site and, under an exclusivity deal, from Big Fish Games. They have been distributed to the other games portals about 3-4 weeks after the initial release. Of course, a different deal may be done for this game, if any is done at all.

How about we leave it at something like 50% until the game is finished and released?
