very curious question
why you guys dont add more devs to help kal and progress the updates faster ???
Not sure you will get a full answer from this.
Let's just say previous projects did not appear to workout too well just throwing money at the problem.
It is best to think of Starmaker as a passion project. He does get lots of help for assets from people like Doc.
But the soul focus is always going to be on Roundscape and I am sure furanh will not be going home empty handed for all the art work involved.
But it is not just money, it is also finding someone who shares an identical vision.
Even with just coding taking on an additional programmer near the end of a project always results in further delays. While they get up to speed with the project.
It has already been stated there with be a 6 months gap between the Steam release and the next project. So depending on the scale of said project, this would mostly like be the time if viewed as a requirement.
Hello there,
adding someone this late in development would just slow things even more, they would need to learn how the project is programmed, how the systems work, as well as it would be adding another person to the list of a free project. The size of the team is in a good spot to what Kal wants to accomplish. The updates are normally released in between a couple of months (3 or so) and most of the times what causes the delays is the simplest thing... Dev wants to keep adding stuff. For example, 1.8 wasn't supposed to be a big update, but the number of reworks that happened caused it to grow more than expected; same as 1.8A, normally lettered updates are just bugfixes, but this one will also contain some extra content just like 1.5B did in the past.
