Ok so here is the truth about what happened to Rippa's Survival Island tycoon 2 and why it was never finished.
The honest truth is that it is my fault. I can't blame anyone else, but due to some unfortunate circumstances the project is lost, let me explain further.
Ok so it is my fault because i didn't make a backup of the project. This project was started some time ago, before i had started to create backups for my projects that i am working on, and this project is the reason i create backups now.
However what actually happened is as follows:
I was working on survival island 2, getting some good progress done, when we had a power out due (to the faulty wiring in the house we rent) right as i was trying to compile the game, During the blackout my pc that i was working on was shut down without notice and without saving or completing the compile. After power had come back i booted up my pc to see what damage had been done to my project, i knew it wasn't going to be good. but it was worse than i had thought. The whole project had become corrupt. I could no longer load up my project which means i had lost everything. Right back to the very start again with nothing. Disheartened i kinda put the project off for a while, that while turned into well forever since :/.
HOWEVER i would like to announce that there is hope in the future for Survival Island Tycoon. I do plan to release a new Survival Island Tycoon in the future, but this new survival island will be created using a new engine, GameMaker: Studio, The game will be coded in GML (gamemaker language). Once the development has begun on the new survival island tycoon, I will most definately post updates.
I am extremely sorry for the inconvenience, and extremely sorry if you were looking forward to playing this game, But like i said, there is still hope shining on this project.
