I bet you have to actively hunt for bugs/report those you find while playing in insane detail. Kind of like that "Push KSP to the limit" thing SQUAD did a few years ago. NDA probably makes you stay silent, but thats my guess as to what goes on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have exams or papers to grade... You can stay close to the coffee pot... You have really cool people to work with... Spoiler Anyhow, I'm actually happy for you. Nothing mean intended, just some good teasing... Am looking forward to seeing some more screen shots, as always! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DualDesertEagle Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Well whatever it is ur doing there, I think they need to cut back on ur work hours. The waiting for the next chapter has become extremely long by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4472TJ Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Just read chapters 1 through to 99. @Just Jim you need to ring a publisher. This is material worthy of 1000 medals. I honestly have been addicted to this stuff! You have created the stuff of legend, but I want to here more about the Kergyptians and Kerbin's history, something like a mini spin off type thing talking about it would be cool... That is if SQUAD gives you any time off! I can't wait for Chapter 100! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that could be fun. Let me think about it. 3 hours ago, DualDesertEagle said: Well whatever it is ur doing there, I think they need to cut back on ur work hours.

Honestly it took me forever to think the whole thing out, and I wasn't really happy with it until just a couple weeks ago. And I've also been fighting a cold off and on the last couple weeks. I finished a couple new things last weekend, I'm going to try and polish off the screenshots this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fulgur Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 After ages reading but not posting, I created an account to say that this is my favourite mission report and I love all the work you have put into it, and am really sad to see it being put on 'indefinite hold'. I hope you will continue writing it someday soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSK Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Hey Jim, You offered me a place to vent when things weren't working out so well - if you ever need a place in return, just drop me a pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jim Posted February 2, 2019 Author Share Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) Hey everyone, i apologize. I should not have said that the way I did. I've been fighting a cold all week, and it's made me a bit of a grouch. But as much as I don't want to admit this, I really need a break. Don't misunderstand... I love KSP, and my job, and the peeps I work with, more than you can imagine. That has not changed, nor will it. But working all week on KSP, and then spending weekend after weekend on working Emiko ... It's getting to be a bit much. I have to back off of one or the other, and it's not going to be my job. Otherwise I'm going to burn out... and I desperately don't want that to happen. I'm going to finish Chapter 100 here soon. But after that... well, we'll see. I may have to call it quits for a while, and just focus on what's important for both me, and the game.

I'm not going to leave everyone just hanging without a proper ending. And after weeks of working all the little details out, I think I may have come up with something everyone will like... I hope.

Works for me! you certainly have put out an epic worthy of greatness, but you gotta keep priorities straight. I look forward to the conclusion(maybe) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
