We love our fan-base and the enthusiasm you have for Hypercharge. It means a great deal to us. Without you, all of what we have achieved would not have been possible. The past few months have been extremely difficult for us, just like they have been for the rest of the world.
We’re a five-man indie team with limited resources. We have done the best we can to cope with each obstacle thrown our way. However, there’s only so much we can humanly do. Our development roadmap is behind schedule. We’ve been honest and open about this many times in the past. We’re working hard to play catch up. We understand delays are frustrating, but please keep in mind that we are just as frustrated as you are. When we’re in a more stable and confident position, we will announce an updated roadmap. We appreciate your understanding and hope you will keep patient during these uncertain times. On a pleasant note, during this pandemic we have released 2 Major Updates on two platforms, and multiple Hot Fixes. We think that’s exceptional considering the circumstances.
To conclude this statement, we are human beings, just like you. We’re not machines. We have families, friends and partners to look after and worry about. We laugh, cry and sometimes have meltdowns.
From all of us at DCC, thank you for your support and understanding.
