Yeni Yol Haritası!
With the release of the Sapiens 0.5 multiplayer update, a lot of the previous roadmap is now complete. Your feedback has helped to lead the direction of the game, and I have a few new features I want to add, so it’s time for a complete new roadmap!
This roadmap covers all of the features I intend to add before the 1.0 release. There are many more features I’d like to add beyond that too, but this is a good set of launch features that can be achieved in a reasonable timeframe.
VR is the only removal from the original roadmap, all other omissions either have been implemented, are still planned, or have been replaced by other equivalent features. The VR market has changed substantially in recent years, and my goals and priorities for Sapiens have changed a bit, but I do still genuinely want to support VR one day.
These updates will mostly be going out in much smaller bite-sized releases from now on, and if you want to keep a close eye on development and help test new features as they are developed, please do join us on the Discord.
