You may need another cup... sorry! ;_;

I appreciate the offer, but at the stage of development it would take me longer to bring someone in, get them set up on the git repo, get them up to speed, detail everything I need and then check over the work than it would to just do it myself :)
My next game will likely be started with a small team in mind - being a solo developer is great for project control, but a nightmare for physical and mental health ;P

I see no problem delaying the update to next week if there is:
Make more content.
(After all, the last update was on January 23rd (v0.17.7) and since they are weekly releases, then this next one should be the size of 4 or 5 updates, hope I’m not mistaken, correct me)
Go back to being weekly updates, weekly updates are the things that make Arc and CK the best of the best.
And one thing I forgot to ask you Arc is if we are going to have any action with mother(Maven)/tribe of Kana’s… and if this new system will also be on the mountain map I have that question.

About the updates. In one of the logs arc did say that whilst it was good to have more time to work on each update, after this one they will be going back to the weekly schedule

As Kliendon mentioned below, I will be returning to weekly uploads once this latest update is released into the wild (after taking a few days off to rest - I've been working seven-day weeks for the past month :P )
The next update won't be the size of 4-5 normal updates because the delay is due to me designing and coding brand-new systems, which takes a lot of time to do and is 95% coding mechanics rather than designing content.
That being said, it will be larger than most previous updates as players will have the combat, conquer and crafting systems to play around and experiment with.
In short, don't expect an epic amount of content, but I hope you'll enjoy what's there. And once the systems are in place, adding more and more each week will become significantly easier :)

I see, thanks for letting me know. Now I have a better estimate of when to play again… I will wait the next month (April) until the new system is in place.
I’m not sad that the size is not 4-5 updates, you always deliver, sooner or later and the fact that you deliver game updates already makes you a good dev, unlike others dev’s who don’t have eta’s or make just wallpaper in place of the game (dev’s milker’s).
I would also like to thank Kliendon, who also responded.

Oooo I can bring some cookies, nice choc chippers and some shortbread biscuits to go with a nice cuppa. ☺️🍪🫖
Edit... unfortunately the shortbread isn't proper UK/Irish shortbread, but still isn't too bad. Lol.

Bring 'em all! Biscuits are always delicious! And bring another couch, more people gotta relax while patiently waiting.
To the Arc wizard, do your thing man, it's all good. We got you 😎

Bring the whole box! I'm gonna put some more wood in the fire place while we wait. My thumb muscles are getting stronger 😎
