For those who are Blightbound...
With Blightbound having been released as an Early Access title (which was celebrated with gusto here in the studio!), we recognise the need for a Roadmap.

A Roadmap is an excellent way of doing the following:

1. Informing the playerbase, and the community at large, about upcoming changes and current development plans.
   
2. Keeping the developer, in this case Ronimo, accountable. Like having a gym buddy.

As a result, we made a Roadmap. Take a look!


Now, this isn't exactly a year-long review, is it? On the left, you can see the current patch. The center and right panels show what we have in the pipeline that is almost fully developed, and that you can expect to see within a few weeks. The text on the far right shows what we're working on, but have no set time for when it'll be completely done; suffice to say, it's being developed and worked on presently.

This works well for us because of how we're updating the game throughout Early Access, namely in smaller, more frequent packages to the tune of ~1-2 patches per month, rather than 1 patch every 3 months or something.

It's not a bad system for being reactive and responsive to the Early Access community, something we value a great deal. That you folks who are supporting us through early access are taking the time to give us feedback and help make Blightbound better is amazing, and we want to do our best to make those changes happen quickly and evenly, rather that in massive chunks. It's what we're good at, what we know well, and what we think works best for us at the moment.

If you want a more granular look at the changes, we also have patchnotes, which you can read by going to our Blightbound Website[website-blightbound-cdxm0dp6p.vercel.app] or checking out the Ronimo Games discord and reading the patch notes there![discord.gg]

Tell us what you think of the roadmap! Are there any things you'd like to see developed in particular? What's missing? Let us know in the comments.

Best of luck, and may Siurd be with you,
