In this final update for 2017 we share our progress on build 11.  We were supposed to be feature complete today.  We came close.  And Thomas wears a hat.

In this short update we discuss progress on Build 11 and the addition of the new medieval insult engine thanks to the crowd sourcing of insults this week.  Enjoy the video and don't be a goblin-bedder!

We're real close.  So we made a short list of the core features we are focused on publishing in Build 11.  Do our objectives line up with your expectations?

The game is broken.  Can't show you anything.  But what we can talk about is all the weird and goofy things you can do in the worlds most advanced mage simulator.  

In this special 50th double length episode we finally show the tech we've been promising for 3+ years.  It's real.  It works.  The simulated people, places, and monsters all intersect to create interesting choices and quests worth doing.  We've summited everest.

This week we get one step closer to being feature complete on Build 11's simulator: towns now spawn settlements and NPCs move to the new frontiers seeking fame and fortune.  Well, a job at least.

Significant progress has been made on performance tuning the world generation so it no longer takes 30 hours to generate a world. Your welcome. :-)

In this update we have nothing to show, so we answer a question about play time, talk about AI decisions based on desires, and Nic's never ending battle against simulator performance.

This week we discuss the author's journey and listening to the creation, then we show how the simulated people are really alive, moving around on the map, going about their business.

This week Thomas gives a quick update on the financing of the project.  Then we dive into some of the major tech changes we've made to the economy as we make the world more and more realistic.  Near the end of the video we show how NPC traders move around the road system buying and selling goods, and some new tech we made to be able to see any NPC on the map.

For this special Halloween episode we show ways you can use the grinder: for good or eeeeeee-vil.
