Missing In Action Work Update (Patreon)

 Hello dearest Patreons and followers!Again, I can but apologise for dropping of the radar; between this enormous Taps update we're all working on, family life with a new born and some IRL personal things I've been burying my head in work and not getting the updates out as we have nothing of substance to show at the moment.That doesn't mean we don't have progress, far from it, but the next major Taps update is killing me mentally and physically as we have combined 4 workstreams into one to ensure we can have a "continuous release of content" flowing once this version is finally finished.A quick list of things in progress:

• We've rewritten the entire game to be a server-side game model - this means the game now has 3x the working code (Server, API and In-Game) but it does also stop dirty cheaters and allow us to serve out new content in a better manner.
• Item Drop System integrated with minions - worthy of an entire update, and I will, but Cosmo will have 4 equipable slots of Helmet, Armour, Weapon and Trinket that are rolled randomly and boost differing statistics from DPC to elemental damage, to gold drops and more.
• Animations and Icons - there is a LOT of work going into having unique animations and icons for all the item drops. It really is going to look amazing!
• Shards Conversion System - 4 tiers of Shard Types for each shard for Greater, Mega and Ultimate Stage shards. Shards can be slotted into the Super Nymphs for extra boosts, and also used to unlock exclusive top tier content.
• Dungeon Mode Rewrite - one of the constant questions is "is Dungeon mode ready" and the answer is always Soon. We realised that without rewriting the above, Dungeon mode was going to be very difficult to maintain so essentially we've had to start again with it to be more future friendly. The premise and content will still progress the same, its just more code to rework.
• Artwork replacement and Additions - Medusa Sexy artwork is fully replaced, Lycea comes to Taps as an entirely new character, and lots of new content underway for future dungeons such as Sexy Drunk girls and more. Previews coming soon to Patreons exclusively.
• Fishing MiniGame WIP - our new developer is busy working on the major new update element for Shards of Eradine, the fishing mini game and having seen it in action, its starting to look epic! Ill try and piece together some screenshots and details for a full update here too.
• Android Build for Nutaku - we do have a current build that was working for live Nutaku accounts but is currently awaiting the finished release of item drops before we finalise this. It runs a lot better that the Google Play version and it has boobies so Ill get this out to $5+ Patreons as soon as we can.

One issue we've had in the last month or so is we lost our primary office space and moved twice now between temporary spaces and this has of course had repercussions on timelines and continuity of development thought trains. We're working through it.

Still no firm dates on the next release, but as always just wanted to let everyone know we're 110% working hard as always!
