There are a few reasons for this. I hope you will understand and accept the reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But before I talk about the reasons, I would like to say:&nbsp;<br>We have not given up! And there will be more patches and updates for HWPS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it will take some time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the reasons why:<br>we are a small studio with a team of people who need to be paid. So we have to realize other projects as well. And that&#8217;s one reason why we can&#8217;t work full time on updates and patches with a full team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to positive feedback, we have seen that the improvements and changes we have made have been poorly received. Of course that makes us sad.<br>It&#8217;s sad, but it led us to dive deeper into why this was happening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And we found out some things that are very complex and difficult to fix. That&#8217;s where the right team members need to invest time and that&#8217;s what they did. And of course we hope it works better this time. It&#8217;s summer and many team members have been working too hard to fix bugs and they deserve some vacation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope you understand that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next update is definitely coming and is already planned. We have already improved some things and fixed some bugs, but we want to deliver final solutions for laggs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I wrote in the comment to the last blog post, we are still thinking about making a public beta branch on Steam. I hope we will have news on that in two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope I was able to give you some more insights into the development. If you have any questions, please ask.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p> <br>We hope you understand our situation and stay by our side as a community. The game is not dead. There will be more updates. The story of Caminora is not over yet. We have plans for the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"BorlabsCookie _brlbs-cb-youtube\"><div class=\"_brlbs-content-blocker\"> <div class=\"_brlbs-embed _brlbs-video-youtube\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"_brlbs-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/z-software.net\/site\/wp-content\/plugins\/borlabs-cookie\/assets\/images\/cb-no-thumbnail.png\" alt=\"YouTube\"> <div class=\"_brlbs-caption\"> <p>By loading the video, you agree to YouTube&#8217;s privacy policy.<br><a href=\"https:\/\/policies.google.com\/privacy?hl=en&amp;gl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Learn more<\/a><\/p> <p><a class=\"_brlbs-btn _brlbs-icon-play-white\" href=\"#\" data-borlabs-cookie-unblock role=\"button\">Load video<\/a><\/p> <p><label><input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"unblockAll\" value=\"1\" checked> <small>Always unblock YouTube<\/small><\/label><\/p> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div><div class=\"borlabs-hide\" data-borlabs-cookie-type=\"content-blocker\" data-borlabs-cookie-id=\"youtube\"><script type=\"text\/template\">PGlmcmFtZSB0aXRsZT0iSGlnaHdheSBQb2xpY2UgU2ltdWxhdG9yICAtIFJlbmRlciBUcmFpbGVyIiB3aWR0aD0iMTIwMCIgaGVpZ2h0PSI2NzUiIHNyYz0iaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cueW91dHViZS1ub2Nvb2tpZS5jb20vZW1iZWQvSUpVLTFQZVdjTUE\/ZmVhdHVyZT1vZW1iZWQiIGZyYW1lYm9yZGVyPSIwIiBhbGxvdz0iYWNjZWxlcm9tZXRlcjsgYXV0b3BsYXk7IGNsaXBib2FyZC13cml0ZTsgZW5jcnlwdGVkLW1lZGlhOyBneXJvc2NvcGU7IHBpY3R1cmUtaW4tcGljdHVyZTsgd2ViLXNoYXJlIiByZWZlcnJlcnBvbGljeT0ic3RyaWN0LW9yaWdpbi13aGVuLWNyb3NzLW9yaWdpbiIgYWxsb3dmdWxsc2NyZWVuPjwvaWZyYW1lPg==<\/script><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We will be much more active in the socials and forums in the next few days.
