Repeated intro
Hey, everyone,
So, if you've been following the game these last few months, you may have noticed that we haven't been anywhere near as active as we have been in the past, and I wanted to explain a bit of why that is and what's goin on.
Oi, Innkeep! is our first ever real attempt at making a video game ourselves. Having never done this before, there's been a butt load of stuff that has come up along the way that we just never expected, from plenty of game breaking bugs to longer than expected turnaround times to get features in.
The real issue is that we're just two people. We don't have a massive team behind us. Apart from the music, we do everything ourselves. After almost three years of working on Oi,Innkeep, we've hit the point where we just need to make money to keep going. Neither Rich or I have had any money coming in this entire time, and have had to make some pretty big sacrifices just to keep it going this long. But, with both of us over 30 now, we need to start thinking a bit ahead and addressing the money issue.
So, you may have already guessed where this is going, but we don't really have a choice but to put Oi, Innkeep aside for now while we both try and get some sort of work, and try to make some money.
This doesn't mean we're just giving up on Oi, Innkeep. We've both put too many years into this to do that, but we just don't have a choice at the moment. With a bit of luck, we'll have pulled enough money together in a couple of months to work on it again and finally bring it out, but who knows what will happen. We're not going to bullshit and make any promises we might not be able to keep.
We're sorry that we haven't been able to deliver on what we've promised so far, guys.
Hayden
