    The final patch: A look back at Telepath Tactics

    Today, I pushed the last of the free updates to Telepath Tactics Liberated. With that milestone reached, I figured it might be nice to take a step back, take a deep breath, and gaze upon the long journey I undertook to reach this point.

    It was 2011, six years after Adobe bought Macromedia. I was closing in on finishing Telepath RPG: Servants of God - on the side, I began dabbling with a new tactics engine prototype using Actionscript 3.

    It was December 2012, ten months after the release of TRPG:SoG. Kickstarter had just become incredibly popular for funding games; I ran a Kickstarter campaign of my own for Telepath Tactics. It was ill-fated, destined to fall short of the funding goal by some $7,000.

    I learned lessons. I licked my wounds. I tried again four months later. The second Telepath Tactics Kickstarter ended successfully in April 2013 with more than $41,000 raised. It feels downright absurd to type these words: that was more than 11 years ago.

    Funding secured, it took two more years to finish Telepath Tactics and get it out on Steam. At the time, I had no idea what would await me on the other side of launch: a torrent of bug reports prompting half a year of constant, free updates to the game pumped out at a fever pitch.
