Winsome Wasp

Hello to you wonderful players of The Revival Project from Mod Churby. I come to you now being honest with myself and with a heavy heart. A few months ago there was an announcement regarding the pending end game of The Revival Project. At the time, the sentiment was in the right place and my aspirations were pretty serious as to what I could provide you. Since then there have been some very serious changes in my life and in my health that have caused me to come back to you with my hat in hand.

The simple truth of the matter is that I am no longer capable of providing the originally intended end game that I previously spoke on. Matters with my health are getting more complicated and more draining on a daily basis. Balancing my health needs versus that of this game has become more and more difficult. Truly, when I spoke to you last, it was absolutely my intention to take this game through the end of next year.

That time frame is not one that I believe I can fulfill at this point. For this I am quite sorry.

As such, I come to you now in hopes that I can try and figure out something that can provide something resembling a good conclusion for us. That said, I also need to be honest with the fact that, things could change further from here on. I could have a point where I just need to stop entirely.



So here is what I am proposing. As a result of the current October event players will get the information needed to find the original Agrii home world. How we want to handle this from there will be up to you as players and common consensus. My tentative goal would be to complete this game and move it into sandbox mode after December.

I am trying to work on a rough idea of how to wrap the game up in that much space. But I will also take player input on this. You will find below a comment that will allow you to reply in a screened manner so that you can share your thoughts privately. It could be that in reading this a lot of our players will decide they don't want to drag this out and will ask for the game to be closed earlier. It could be that someone will have a wonderful idea of how to help me provide you with a final hurrah and goodbye. I am very open to anything that you have to offer and if anyone wants to volunteer to help with closing this out, I will absolutely hear you out.

My very best guess adds to an approach that I would take if there was no player input would be to take the information that you get from October, go visit the planet in question in November, and then we turn to the Agrii for a closing event in December. From there, I could offer any remaining notes that we have of the direction that the plot was supposed to take, and players can play that through via sandbox mode or anything that they want. That's my general idea. I know it isn't the greatest, but, as I said, I am happy to take input.

If you have a character that was previously in the game that you wish to bring back for this end game please let me know. I am going to be waiving applications for this period of time and prior characters can return with just a nod and a request to join the main community. For bringing in a new character for the very end game, if you should choose to do that, the most I would ask for is just showing me that you have an account and a little bit of information about the characters background, just so that I have a concept of who it is.

I will note that if we come down to a place where other than me, there's only about two or three other players, I will end up closing the game early just due to lack of people to play with. I will do my best to play out any NPC needs as is required through the end game though, even if I have to neglect my own characters for it.

I Cannot even begin to tell you how sorry I am that it is coming to this point and that I will not be able to fulfill the end game that I promised you. I won't go into any details without them being specifically asked for by friends, but this really is the best thing that I can do for my physical and my mental health.

Once again, my deepest apologies and my hope that you will work with me going forward for the end of this game. And if that's not something you can do or you choose to leave, know that you do with all of the love of me and every person that has worked to bring you The Revival Project over the years. You are what makes this game great and is what made this a wonderful home for me.
