Hi, I recently got interested into NES development and stumbled into NAW as a pretty solid option for making tilesets and so on. I saw there was a post on twitter about some upcoming features back in September, so I'm just checking if there's an ETA for the next update. 

I was a bit concerned about purchasing it at first since it's been a while since the last update but regardless, I feel you did an amazing job with the tool and there's clearly a lot of passion behind, so I went ahead and just want to give kudos for the great work.

PS: Congrats on Former Dawn!

Developer

Thank you so much for the feedback!

I got covid last year and I think I got affected by long covid which combined with other factors to develop into sleep apneia. I've been getting treatment!

The little free time I have I used to help develop Former Dawn, but also to improve NAW. The reason I haven't released a public version yet is because it has a few bugs that are not a problem for my personal use but that would not be acceptable for downloads.

So yeah, it hasn't stopped, on the contrary I still have big plans for it and it's moving forward. ETA for a new version is uncertain but I do not want to let it go for more than 2 months. Even if I limit some of the new features just to get it released it'll still be very much worth it.

I'm very happy about Former Dawn's campaign, people are awesome!
