Hi y''Also available online in full at http://cardboardcomputer.com/2014/02/10/act-iii-progress-update/.''all!
We get a fair number of emails asking about the status of Act III, which is totally understandable. We know it's a bit unusual for a game company not to announce release dates in advance, or generally to keep such a low profile between releases, and of course since many of y'all have paid in advance for all five acts of the game it's not surprising that you'd want more clarity from us or reassurance that the game is still under development. We have pretty clear reasons for working the way that we do, but it seems like a good time to start being a bit more publicly transparent.
So here's an update about what's going on with Kentucky Route Zero development right now:
We get asked sometimes if the project is abandoned. '''No!''' Acts III, IV and V are still coming out. We've never stopped working on Kentucky Route Zero, and there's no risk of us abandoning it. Making this game is what we do.
We publicly announced release dates for Act I and II, and in both cases those dates slipped, which is not at all unusual in videogames or other creative projects. But, all the same, it was pretty demoralizing to miss deadlines, and the barrage of negative attention that followed made it only more difficult to focus on work. More importantly, we've learned that our process is quite exploratory, experimental, and unpredictable anyway.
More soon,<br />
