Am I leaving or returning, updates, and other ponderings about the future

So... I’ve been gone for... over a year now, just silently checking out some builds or whatever but I’ve honestly lost a lot of interest in building. Are my projects cancelled? Maybe. I might just finish them up and go, or maybe I’ll get back into it, idk.

School is getting a lot harder (I’m now in grade 11) and I’ve really graduated into irl stuff. I’m currently building my second Stirling engine which is going great, but idk what I’m going to do about this account now.

Man, this game has been such an influence on my life. I developed a deep understanding of aviation, it gave me a place to channel my love of airships without being too cringe, and now I’m building a rough recreation of the titanic’s engines. And this community has really been an incredible place to mature over the last couple years, and I’m really sorry for anyone who had to deal with my 13 year old self and I know he was absolutely stupid beyond belief.

Another thing, is the game dying yet? I mean, we haven’t gotten and update in like a year, and well... I sure as heck haven’t seen it on YouTube much. Do the devs care about it anymore? Is the community still around? What’s happened since I’ve left?

Anyway, I have no idea where this was going I was just browsing the site and I thought “oh, the forums” and then I vomited out all the feelings I never knew I had about the community and the game. So... I think this is a new chapter, but it’s probably the end.

    @EternalDarkness that’s great about the update! And yeah. I’m planning on finishing the projects I left over Christmas, I hope that will reignite my love of the game

    I'd hate to see you go. Leave the account and come back during school breaks. As for the game dying, another update has been confirmed months ago, when WNP was added as a dev.

    Also, @EternalDarkness dude, you gave me insane amounts of help and support. I cannot thank you enough and it’s great to see you, who’s been here much longer than me, still going strong
