May '16: the State of Rolz
Added 2016-05-20 02:20:17 +0000 UTCHey there Rollers, this is going to be a short one but I wanted to keep everybody updated:
Due to work reasons, I didn't get to finish the tactical map, but it's still coming. I apologize to everyone who's been waiting for this during the recent months.
I have started working on new features again, thanks to everybody who wrote in with suggestions!
The biggest new feature is Google Hangouts integration: you can now start a Hangout directly from the dice room and the Hangout should then automatically start the new Rolz Hangouts app. As you invite other people to the same Hangout, they should also be directed to the same dice room. Let me know how this works out for you!
I'm also happy to report that Rolz didn't decline into nothingness in the face of big, commercial competition - it seems we have even gained a few users over the year. I'm going to take this as a good sign and invest more time into Rolz again.
Finally, thank you for all the people who helped out with donations via Paypal and Patreon: your donations go a long way to offset my server costs. Sadly, it's not enough to completely cover these costs, but every little bit helps! Thank you! <3
Onward!!!
