How do you figure? 

Version numbering doesn't mean % of the game complete. V0.26 isn't 26% complete. It just means it's the 26th large update since the first (V0.1).  With further numbers meaning minor updates to the major update, for example V0.26.1 would likely mean no new content, but bug fixes or something similar.

There are many different version numbering systems different games use, but none of them are counting towards completion, they're simply build numbers to track changes.

Fair point. Maybe it's because I'm used to the numbering system as a counter for completion of the basic game. And maybe it's also influenced by some negative experience a while ago, where another creator here on itch had their game at version 0.33, with lots of content planned etc, just to suddenly release the final version 1.0. With doing so, no more content was added while also changing the art style for the free version to ugly drawn art and hiding the better art with detailed 3D models as well as QoL features like a gallery and formerly free hints behind a paywall.

I'm sorry if my comment came over as rude, that wasn't my intention when writing it. I enjoyed your game a lot so far, plus I'm very curious for your upcoming game "Savior of the Wasteland".
