Frayed Knights Release Update
For those who were signed up for testing Frayed Knights, the third alpha release came out Sunday night. Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond my control, development was all but halted for two weeks during alpha so that I could devote all my waking hours to the folks that provide me with the means to pay my mortgage. This was about 10 days longer than the crunch mode was planned, so the impact to Frayed Knights' development was... uh, about two weeks.

Sure enough, on Monday, I got slammed with a tall stack of bugs and suggestions from the Frayed Knights alpha test crew, for which I am grateful. But I'm also very busy. I expect at least one more alpha to come out in about a week to ten days, and with *luck*, I'll be able to come out with a public beta release of the pilot shortly thereafter.

Also during this time, I need to get some more outlining of stuff needed for the post-pilot development stuff to the dev team. I've got a dizzying array of notes, outlines, and dialogs that all need to be pulled together into something cohesive. And I'm getting a lot of feedback even now that suggests things I should change for the full version which may not be able to make it into the pilot.

Once again, I gotta hand it to the testing team. They've been awesome, and have been very supportive while also not holding back on the bug reports and criticisms. That's exactly what I've needed, and you guys have my thanks.
