I'm so glad you're enjoying it, that's the biggest thing.
You are right, updates have essentially stopped. Unfortunately, life has gotten the better of me, and while I love the game, and a lot of people love the game (I still monitor the server, and we still have a decent amount of daily players!) it simply doesn't pay the bills. To add onto that, MMO Sim was one of my first attempts at putting a game out, it was extremely ambitious as a first major project, and I've learned a lot since then. A lot of the code and the structures that MMO Sim are built on are very difficult to work with, and it makes things even slower.
I'll never say never as far as continuing to work on MMO Sim, but for now, I have to keep a roof over my head, and just don't have the time that I used to have. At this stage, an update is planned for sometime in the near future to fix some bugs that have been reported in the Discord, but I can't commit to any timeframe on any other updates :(
It will warn you before you commit to it, and tell you specifically what you'll keep. I can tell you that everything you mentioned will remain, though.
yeah they're a chance. Not too rare, and you don't need many. I don't remember the exact number off the top of my head, but I think its either 10, or less than 10.
I can't be sure without looking at your account, but if you're looking to get the 100% completion ending, you'd need to make sure all of the completion bars in the profile window are full. So that includes things like horses, pets, titles etc.
Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you're enjoying :)
As the other poster said, Gold does become quite precious, and costs will out-scale your ability to naturally earn gold from selling gear. I will agree that Bones is in an awkward spot, and I'm trying to find a way to make it relevant again, but Alchemy is definitely required in the late game.
Sorry! I gave you bad info, here. It seems like I actually fixed that bug already.
In that case, I know exactly what is happening. Everytime you sell something, your steed will consume feed equal to its level. This means that if your steed is level zero, it will consume no feed! The first level is free! You'll start losing feed when the steed reaches Level 1+
Hey! Steed feed should be used when you sell something with a Steed active. At the moment, there's a bug and two of the steeds (The blue one and yellow one) can't eat it. It's being fixed in a day or two with the next update.
Short answer: Equip a steed and it should be used automatically. But yellow and blue aren't working right now.
The account definitely exists. I can reset it, but I'd urge you to join the Discord and DM me, since I don't want to post your reset password in itch comments. This isn't a marketing thing to force you to join, you can leave after :p
They vary depending on the steed, both in their effect and how their quest is started. The short version is that each one has a small chance to start when you do something specific
That's definitely something that could be explored. The big issue is that the longer the sequence becomes, the more likely it is that the player will just have to use some kind of method to record it, like screen recording, or writing it down. I don't particularly think that that is very interesting gameplay. I like where your head is at, though, and I'll think on it and see what I come up with :)
And thankyou for the kind words! I'm so glad you're enjoying it, and happy to exceed expectations! You are mostly correct, it is almost a solo project, I've had some help from some people, and from the great discord community that's formed around the game, so I can't take all the credit :) And you are right, I'm not asking for anything. Donations are welcomed and very appreciated, but in no way expected or requested (:
It's just a fun little thing to make the game a bit more interesting. Whenever you sell something, you have a very small chance to see that. And whenever you upgrade something, you have a very small chance for it to say that somebody gave it to you. It's all simulated, and not real :)
I can reset it remotely. Since I don't think there's any way to DM on itch, it would be best if you join the Discord and DM me directly, so you can tell me your username, and I can reset the password for you :)
I don't usually like posting spoilers in the itch comments, but I'm sure if somebody doesn't want to be spoiled, they just won't keep reading this comment :p
The Beastial Steed will find you once you have met enough pets (: They don't need to be unique, you could just go somewhere that you can complete easily, and meet the same pet multiple times.
I never said I was happy with boosts. I provided them in the poll to see how the players feel about them, because the opinions of the players were what mattered, not my personal feelings.
I'm not sure if you've seen the poll in the discord, but overwhelmingly, everything that could be called a boost or gameplay advantage was shot down gloriously, which didn't surprise me (or anyone else, I think) so I'd say that there's no risk of them being added anytime soon.
Hey! The location and Auto-grinder are being worked on, but because of the way that I wrote the code for grinding, it's taking me a little while to get it right.
Rituals are being re-worked to be a little different, so they're being addressed soon, as well.
You're welcome :) I've given you the Glimmering mount, and taken 1 Beastial Shard off you so that it hopefully triggers the quest when you get another.
Okay, so it looks like you have been robbed of the Glimmering steed. That is a known bug at the moment, so I'm more than happy to fix it for you. I also see that you have the correct number of beastial shards, but it looks like it didn't save when you closed the game. This should fix itself if you get one more pet.
I see that you're online right now, though. You'll have to close the game for me to edit your save and give you the glimmering pet, just let me know when you see this :) Sorry about the hassle!
