The problem is that it is just one guy as you keep saying. There’s not going to be substantial improvement while it’s only one person. The only hope would be selling it to a team that know how to develop games but obviously that’s incredibly unlikely. I think most people know that the game will continue in the way that it has for years with the player base slowly dying.FC Apollyon wrote:

I do forward him feedback, concerns, ideas, etc. I sort through the things that does not need his involvement and give him a briefer version to keep the focus on what is more important from his side.
Keep in mind that what you expect of one guy would be taking up most, if not all, of his time and there would be no development as well.
There's a team around that does most of the community work around here, so the focus can be kept.
We have an entire backlog of ideas and improvement going forward. All we need is more time and there's never enough of that.

Mobile app development of this magnitude would be very costly. Something unfathomable amount.
500.000 DKK (60k GBP, 70k USD) is not something you can just throw at something and hope it sticks. That would mean a lot of other things had to be cut down, like all staff, all advertisements, etc. Its just not feasible at this stage.
Not to speak about the price you'd have to give up to apple and google for subscriptions and advertisements.
Having a mobile friendly game is better suited and that's where we are headed.

Well done.
