From the makers of IBT, have a great Xmas wherever you are and wherever you live. Stay safe on the roads and look after yourselves.

This will probably be the last post for 2023, and what an exciting year it has been. Hive still going strong at $0.35 a USD, it's holding a good place and making a nice place to post content as well as all the other side developments and games, there is plenty to come back for in 2024.

In case people are new to IBT (or bit lost what is going on), it's a very unusual 2 games for the price of 1 game combo (uses the same engine -2 totally different games - to be released on Steam).

One of the games is a survival game, and you're basically having to live off the land. The other game is a modern take on the old RPG games of the past, like bard tale. It has various acts which follow the original IBT game I created on Steem back in the day (one of the first crypto games ever, well, certainly the first RPG on steem before it became Hive that is haha).

Ok, so you can make armour and stack just about anything, you can also craft lots of stuff from whatever you got.

the stuff in the game engine that makes people on bikes go, is also useful in making animals go - Code is shared.

When we started the project, I was keen to ensure it was different and I didn't want to build it around a crypto engine. Rather I wanted to build a core game, then link it back to a crypto engine for in game benefits etc. This view hasn't changed, but the expected time it takes to make a game has changed - it takes fricken forever. It takes so long, that it may still be another year before this thing hits the streets. Putting this aside making games is fun and it is rewarding in its own way even if it doesn't get done.

Everything needs to be animated, each animation, time and bugs to sort out.
