I stumbled across this one while looking for a more polished alternative to MasterPlan in order to do my gamedev tasks. Are there still plans for continued work on this one?

The UI and navigation are extremely clean and easy to use, arguably one of the most important aspects in a program like this that I think most other options fail pretty hard on. I really like all the keybindings and features that allow me to rapidly navigate without needing to grab my mouse at all; as well as the general layout and organization seems to feel very in-sync with how I work, letting me see what I need and hide what I don't care for without clutter. 
It's also just fun to look at aesthetically, not like I'm bringing myself before a spreadsheet everyday.


Some pain points/feedback:

* Part of me wishes for a setting that causes neuronal to treat hovering as selection. I.E: If I want to prune my tree I'd much prefer having the option to hover over a topic and hit D to delete the hover'd topic: as opposed to hover, click to select, then D. I already declared by intention to interact with a given topic by hovering my mouse over it.


* It'd be nice to assign deadlines to my topics, that would cause them to display some sort of date, clock, or progress bar towards a due-date that allows me to see at a glance what I want to be working on. The Show Progress option already does half of this workflow, and I'd be looking for similar.


* I sorely wish for the ability to see my linked images,PDFs, and similar image-files natively within the app, without needing to open a topic. An ideal implementation of this could look like an option for file links to display the content as neuronal's  background when the node becomes the active selection: almost exactly like how the Viewer node in Blender's compositor view displays your working render behind the compositor nodes.  Displaying all images to the left of the notes view when clicked on would also be very nice.

If not for the last point about image-viewing, this would already be replacing Puref and Masterplan as my long-term organizational tool and well be worth a pricetag.

Edit: Example of what the last thought could look like.
