News Liste Airship: Kingdoms Adrift

It’s been a while... but here’s the roadmap for improvements!
Airship: Kingdoms Adrift
04.09.25 21:24 Community Announcements
[p]Greetings, Skyfarers![/p][p]Airship: Kingdoms Adrift has been a completed game for a while now, and by now, many of you know it well. While the team has since moved on to other projects, we’ve continued collecting feedback throughout. One of the earliest major issues, the December GPU performance bottleneck, was thankfully resolved. And since then, we’ve seen no reports of it reoccurring.[/p][p]Over the course of 2025, our full effort has gone into securing the funding needed to kickstart development of our next title. We’ll have good news to share about that later this year. But in the meantime, with some time and resources finally freed up, we want to revisit Kingdoms Adrift and fix what we can, especially things that we now understand better thanks to your feedback.[/p][p][/p]
[p][/p]

Why a roadmap now?

[p]To set the tone: this roadmap is not about transforming Kingdoms Adrift into the perfect game we dreamed of. Instead, it’s about making sure that anyone who discovers the game from today onwards can enjoy it for what it is, without being turned away by pain points that we can still realistically fix.[/p][p]This is our first title, and as we move on to the next big thing, we want Kingdoms Adrift to remain something we're proud of; something that invites new players into our world of fantasy flying ships, and, just maybe, earns a lifelong fan or two along the way.[/p][p][/p]
[p][/p]

Coming Soon: First Steps

[p]Better Troubleshooting Tools[/p][p]We’ll be introducing a new “Development Build” branch to help us and the community track down bugs more effectively. Unity doesn’t give us much to work with in terms of diagnostics unless we're running a full dev build, so this new branch will let us capture the data we need on your end when issues happen.[/p][p]We’re still a small team, and we simply don’t have the resources to replicate every hardware and gameplay setup — but this is a step toward better transparency and faster fixes.[/p][p]Community discussion[/p][p]Later in this article, we’ll share a full list of issues we plan to tackle — spanning both upcoming patches and longer-term goals. But we also want your help in deciding what comes first.[/p][p]We’ll be opening up individual discussions on each topic so we can walk through the ideas and proposed changes together with the community. You’ll be able to track progress and fix status in real time through a dedicated thread on our Discord, which will be kept up to date as work moves forward.[/p][p]https://discord.com/channels/824584233149923340/1413261736999518288[/p][p][/p]

Acknowledgement (and a Heads-Up)

[p]This is going to be long and detailed. We recommend skimming for the topics that matter most to you. We'll break things into smaller update posts soon, so you can follow or deep dive into the areas that interest you most.[/p][p]The list of fixes and improvements that follows is based on a year of feedback, filtered down to issues mentioned repeatedly or that we believe we can realistically fix without exceeding our technical limits.[/p][p]If you believe we’ve missed something that is both important and achievable, please don’t hesitate to let us know in the comments.
