Hi! Dev here - Thanks for making this video. You bring up many fair points. Indeed, I am no longer developing the game. This was my first major project and the code-base was developed over 2.5 years. The Blue Skies region ended up being incredibly complex and it started having crashing issues almost every 30 seconds at the beginning of 2022 (game launched october 2022). I playtested and tried to get the crashes under control and from what I could tell, I mostly succeeded. I see now that I did not succeed sufficiently and I apologize for that. With the old code base it simply isn't very feasible to reduce the crashes even further. I promise I will do better in the future though. Thankfully the first three worlds appear to be acceptable so there is still a good amount of hours that is relatively stable. Correct me if I am wrong. Also the siege mode is pretty stable if I recall correctly. For my own reference; could you let me know in what level you are experiencing the majority of the crashes and after which level you cannot progress? I might be able to investigate. Have a good day.
Hey i love the game btw but usually the crashes for me happen right at the beginning of the first level at blue skies I've tried doing it multiple times but it just doesn't let me progress I'm not sure if its because of placement or what causes it. But the siege mode works perfectly fine from what I've seen even in that region so I'm not sure why the campaign map results with that but if you ever work on something else ill make sure to keep my eyes out for it!
