Geez man.. I love P8 ports of games I played when younger

Excellent work.. plays damn good

That's understood.. kind of like a 'pre-release' for lack of a better term.

The part of the question was particularly regarding not being able to find 'signs of change' for a whole year essentially..
> "There are only Tags up until v0.70.6"
.. admittedly the statement made on July 10 about the 0.80 builds and link are not readily obvious and requires a bit of digging.

I did not attempt to answer most points in the Original Post because, lots of points and Hurricane threat.. but I felt this was a quick and more immediate response to his situation and assumed someone would jump in and tackle the others.

Additionally, ty @Masternama8000 ... heck I didn't even know of some of those changes :)

[ I would've answered earlier, but prep work for Hurricane Dorian took some focus. ]

ok, there are a few questions here.. and my answers will be an educated speculation based on observation, since I've never questioned the man's methods.

> There are only Tags up until v0.70.6 on the https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80. Why is that?
I assume this question is in regards to what you find here [ https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/releases ]. If you notice he associates milestones [ https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/milestones ] in his workflow and that currently there are no more open bugs left for the 0.70.2 milestone tag. If I were him, since it seems we share similar workflows, this would mean that there are no valid reasons left to focus on  the 0.70.2 [ https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/milestone/24 ] milestone over the 0.80 [ https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/milestone/25 ] milestone release.

> How does one know those builds are compiled from  https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80 anyway?
Simple enough - https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/issues/870

> How does one get the source to the specific release without the tags?
Code's being committed to the Master branch. From the 0.70.6 release page [ https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/releases/tag/v0.70.6 ] you can see how many commits have been made since that tagged release.

> And last but not least: There hasn't been a release since over a year I couldn't find out why that is and what is blocking the release. Good software is released early and often. What is wrong with the current state of the project that hinders a release? Where am I supossed to get that information?
