Weekly Status Report: 9/9/13

Hello, everyone! Lemoness here with your Weekly HabitRPG Status Report!

NEWS FROM THE FRONT LINES: ANGULAR SITE LAUNCH, MOBILE APP UPDATE

The biggest news from this week is that we launched the first version of the new HabitRPG Angular site! Although it still isn’t 100% feature-equivalent, it’s pretty close. Since we’ve launched, we’ve already ported several other features, like Delete Chat and Edit Profile. Old.HabitRPG is officially no more! Massive applause for @meaganoff and @paglias on Github, two of our newest contributors! They are being absolutely superb.

We are also proud to announce that we have released our first Mobile App Update! It contains fixes for lots of big issues, such as showing your pets, displaying when you are in the inn, addressing day-rollover, and of course, fixing the dreaded login-ghost click issue. It also fixes a bunch of smaller bugs, like the helmet display problems etc. Download and enjoy!

Oh, and as a special bonus to all of you veterans of the Derby site… you’ve all been gifted a rare Veteran Wolf :)

CURRENT FEATURES IN DEVELOPMENT: ANGULAR SITE FEATURE EQUIVALENCY, ANGULAR SITE POLISHING, BEHIND-THE-SCENES BUSINESS

The next big push for us is getting the new Angular site to be feature-equivalent with the old site. That means porting buttons; enabling drop/streak and group chat notifications; enabling tags, graphs, and charts; and optimizing data to make the load times faster!

We’re also doing a lot of boring and time-consuming paperwork. Boo, hiss. It’s an uninteresting but necessary evil.

COMING UP NEXT: CHALLENGES, CONTRIBUTOR ARMOR, and KICKSTARTER REWARDS!

Yes, you read that right - after all the old features are implemented in the new site, we’ll be able to start releasing new features again! The first to come will be Guild and Party Challenges, and then we will continue with working on all the remaining Kickstarter rewards! We are also going to have a lot more information soon about a special armor set for people who pitch in with HabitRPG, so stay tuned!
