So, like, what's next TS?

So, the year has been rife with cool stuff. Slothses, foxes, /homes, furniture, upgrade cards, /towers, SDB sales & API tweaks. Very cool indeed. And due out soon I suspect will be the new tutorial. Things seem like they are rounding into shape.

And so...

Now what? More content / depth? Polishing things for unbeta? Inquiring minds want to know!?!!

  • How soon? 
    Posted 5 months ago by Kristabel Subscriber! | Permalink
  • In rough priority order:

    1. More space for players to build / More creative power in the kinds of things they can build (e.g., towers & vending SDBs; later: toy streets and snaps on walls)
    2. More collective action / Shared goals / Narrative (e.g., new tutorial, new level quests, of which Summer's Day is the first; later: feats, story quests)
    3. More simple/dizzying fun (e.g., apartment basement levels, "ticket" upgrade card levels; later: bonus rooms, new style races, quoin shards).

  • @stoot barfield Thanks for elaborating (it's appreciated).

  • Thanks stoot!! Although... you tell us all that in a small, barely noticeable thread? Where's the next blog entry that announces that kind of stuff? ;)

  • I'm sure that this has been answered elsewhere, or is out of context, but:

    1) What is the current status of the iMG Leaderboard, if there is supposed to be any?

    2) Will there (ever) be a Leaderboards section for Races and Game of Crowns (with weekly/all time results), or would that make the game seem too competitive?

  • what about coming out of beta again?

  • Quoin shards? Pray tell, what be these wonders?
    Posted 5 months ago by Papa Legba Subscriber! | Permalink
  • sounds good
    Posted 5 months ago by Lemo Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I second the "Quoin shards?" sentiment. Like... whats that? All this other stuff sounds clawsome though! Oh and Also seconding the question of when we'll be out of beta and/or when new players will be entering. I must say, my brother could've shat a whole brick house by now with all the time he's been waiting lol. Not complaining or anything, more asking so he'll stop asking me lol.

  • When it's ready. Glitch already mistakenly launched once; I'd imagine they want to make sure they get it right this time. And I'd much rather that, than rushing them into releasing before the game is up to their standards. Glitch is shaping up to be something truly awesome.

    I can understand why people are anxious for invites to be re-opened, but I'm not really sure why they're crying out for a re-launch. Watching something cool shape up is a lot more fun than getting a few free credits if you ask me.

  • why does "snap on wall" sound kinda rude.....discuss...
    Posted 5 months ago by Loupin Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I'm with you Justin -- I find that anxiety rather inexplicable.  I'm sure someone could explain it to me, and I'm pretty sure I'd still be scratching my head.

  • A way to post snaps, yay! That means picture frames, more museum possibilities, all sorts of Glitchy goodness :)

  • I'm with you on that one, Rook ~the Leaderboards do need an overhaul, but to me that means not just adding more categories, imo it also means changing them so everybody has a fair chance to make it to the top,
    and that means only streets open to everybody, at the time their existence (eg Rooks Wood) should count, but most certainly not those accessed "illegally" (such as the place called 'Lisa').

    I assume all those with more than 1038 streets visited are staff, and as long as they are staff I very much like to see them listed, as it shows how many more streets we, the players, can look forward to!

  • I don't know much about the leaderboards - is the mechanism currently unfair?
    Posted 5 months ago by diaveborn ♥ Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I agree with you as well Justin!! Let's let TS get it right before they re-open to any new players. 

    @stoot: although I do enjoy shared goals...I'd also like to see individual goals as well..just to balance things out

    Not real concerned about Leaderboards. I'm not in competition to be "first", just enjoying playing the game.

    Keep up the great work TS!!!!

  • Thanks stoot!

    And yes, I'd like to see blog posts & answers to specific concerns as well, but stoot's reply gave me exactly what I was looking for - an inkling of what was next.

  • Toy streets?  Is that like creating our own Seam Streets? Because I totally want to make my own seam street.

  • Feats and story quests have me jumping up and down in anticipation.
    Posted 5 months ago by Kookaburra Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Quoin shards sound exciting! And story quests!

    (And the only reason I'm anxious for new players to be allowed in is because my husband really wants to be able to play, but he didn't start getting interested until after we closed again. (I've only been here since April.)

  • I don't know if I want to collect quoin sharts.  Unless they add gloves to the wardrobe.

  • Mmm, feets. I dunno stoot, we already have feet?

    What?

    You're saying it's a homophone? You're saying the words are spelled differently but sound the same? You're saying I'm repeating everything you're saying and making a huge fool of myself? 

    Jokes aside, narrative is something this game has been crying out for :) Glad to hear it's being... Woven. Or whatever verbs happen to narrative :)

  • super excited to marvel at the ideas of quoin shards and feats, not to mention my all-time favorite word narrative...  but dang stoot, you owe us a blog post!  the last post is more than three months old, you promised a post "next weekend" almost six weeks ago, and people are dying to know when it's coming!

    lovingly (if pesteringly) yours,
    kat

    p.s. - or maybe time to dust off the old questions and answers groups for another Q&A?  eh?  eh?  ;)
