Releasing GDU prematurely?

Posted by Marked, 26 February 2012 -

Hi all,

I am thinking about releasing GDU prematurely. That means releasing it when a large number of the sections are yet to be coded.

To be honest, I have lost a lot of motivation and faith in RPG Maker. Perhaps due to a combination of the whithering activity of the more active RMXPU members, or the anti-competitive actions of enterbrain that is trying...
