The
Innersloth Blog has a status report for
Among Us, their online
multiplayer whodunit game (thanks
IGN). They explain that the game's unexpected success set them back, as they
had to go back to supporting it, rather than moving on to their next project.
They go into detail about what this entails and thank everybody for their
patience. They promise a roadmap is coming, saying: "It won't have dates until
we know we can hit them, but it'll be a place to find out what to look forward
to first! More on that soon." In the meantime, they note the game is now also
available on the
Epic Games Store as well as
Steam and that
the new
Airship map (video) is coming soon, as they say it's still due in "early
2021." They also offer some details on the community requested account system
that will add, you know, accountability:
Accounts. We wanted to
launch this earlier, and we're close, but we want to make sure it isn’t
half-baked before implementing. (Trust me - you do not want a bad reporting
system with no accountability behind it.) The first update for this is primarily
focused on moderation - as stated in the previous dev log - and we’re hoping to
get this out ASAP. This is a small step towards ensuring everyone playing the
game has a safe and welcoming experience! Don’t worry, we’ve heard all your
requests for things like a friend system, saved stats, and so on, but for now
this will be the first thing available.
