The progress is forget it. Believe it or not, programming is to some degree a creative endeavor and requires some motivating factor other than the temporary cessation of shrieking children.
People like brown towningus too. Why don't you go down to the bus station and give the people what they want?
You seem to have developed a hatred for your own game.
Oh yeah, lets look at the latest critical masterwork from the Blockland steam reviews:
He brings up a good point, I know that I for one look for at least 3000 hours of entertainment out of the $10 indie games that I buy. To only get 2100 is truly pathetic. Also, the devs need to provide free updates forever - like an mmo except no cookie cutter content, just brilliant never before seen stuff over and over for no additional payment. I can't just play the same game over and over, so I need them to make my old games into new games - over and over. I mean I paid ten whole dollars. That's like 3/4ths of a 3D movie ticket.
As you may have overlooked, there are people who have played thousands of hours into this game because they liked
this game you can't just force massive game changing updates and expect those people to be happy. And since you are obviously just in this for money now (maybe you always were?), why don't you just go ahead and revert the game back to when it had terrain and when the community was actually happy. And to make sure all your "hard work" to make shadows and shaders doesn't go to waste, just throw out a Blockland 2 with shadows and shaders as the highlighted feature. Hell add hats while you are at it.
