Hello everyone! As you may have noticed, it is definitely past the February or March goal I was hoping for. Unfortunately, there is no update ready still. Those who go to university and work full time may understand.
It is currently summer break, and I am currently a full-stack software developer intern (ASP.NET + Angular for anyone who is interested). I do have more time to work on the game, but I have become such a better programmer over the past few months. This has led me to begin a rewrite project.
The rewrite will consist:
[list]
[*] Brand new polished UI
[*] UI Themes!
[*] Removing the current tutorial system, replacing it with a task/chapter system. If the storyline is ever made, it'll be combined with this.
[*] (Hopefully In the future) modding support
[*] Brand new menu and settings system.
[*] Ability to have more than one playfab cloud and local account per device
[*] Major performance boosts
[*] Etc.
[/list]
Here are some screenshots of what I have so far:

[b]AGAIN THESE ARE JUST PREVIEWS, NOT AN ACTUAL UPDATE. THERE IS STILL NO ETA.[/b]
Some other news:
I am no longer associated with "CryptoGrounds or CryptoGrounds Games LLC". I have rebranded to a more friendly and accurate name "Considera Core LLC", where my slogan is: "Games and software, consideration at its' core!"
Lastly, it is still pretty much me working on the game.
A good friend of mine will be joining me in making some cool ass art and a storyline for the game. Exciting stuff to come!
See ya in another few months probably haha,
