The way forward
Added 2017-08-13 13:57:56 +0000 UTCSo as I said in the last post this is an important poll.
With our $1000 goal reached I will have some opportunities to hire some people to do upgrading/optimizing work for me, things that I am not able to do on my own.
The best way to make Hornsville a better game engine-wise would be to convert its current format to an actual executable. This would mean creating a proper, downloadable game version. The game would run smoother, it would work better in both Windows and OSX, it would be prettier and I would have plenty of cool new features to include.
A better UI, bigger, more versatile pictures, music, sound effects, perhaps even a few simple animations thse would be all possible to implement with relative ease.
There is always a catch however. This would mean that you won't be able to play the game (or at least not its complete version) in your browser anymore. Furthermore this will prevent you from playing on mobile devices (phones, tablets) unless I manage to put together an app version which won't be easy and might not happen at all.
So the question is what do you guys, gals and all other nice people want to do?
