This is not a hate post, not a post to criticize your work nor a suggestion thread. I am just asking. Is it worth to post our suggestions here or nobody read them? I mean, if we post something useful that will enhance the community and suggest a way to make those that lost every single interest in this game, to find it again, will it get checked or we will write it and we will read it?

I read everything on the forum. If you post something in this board, I can guarantee you it'll be read

Sure, it will be read. The main point is that if something is truly useful, is there any chance to be added or discussed?
Well, I've noticed that many have given up lately. I remember 3-4 months ago, games could even reach 1000 online users, like a game of mine when it was first published. Now, even at weekends, games can barely reach the 500 online users. Others have posted it on their profiles and others quit silently. This is partly because of the fact that KoGaMa stopped getting advertised. Yesterday I had an extended discussion with some players that were active all over the years and created awesome stuff. I don't want to mention names. They mentioned they lost interest in building. They ensured me that they have suggested many possible ways to improve the creating system. None of them were even discussed. I don't like what I see. So could anybody mention some things under construction so we can have something to wait for?

We're not working on any features at the moment. The NPAPI issue has taken priority, as it's the prime cause of our recent lost of user activity.

Hopefully. :] This requires an increased amount of money that only players can offer through playing daily or purchasing gold / XP boosters. Hopefully, that issue will be fixed and we can see more awesome stuff soon

Everyone is posting that they're bored, building has become the only boring and desperate way of earning XP leading back to the 2013 while your community was still unknown. I know about all these stuff that are prioritized and I understand you. But most players suppose you're trying to upgrade KoGaMa, they think you're doing an unnecessary update leading to the complete loss of interest. It's not about explaining it to me, it's about all of them to understand it. When you're done with the NPAPI issue, you must continue from 2013 and try to reach the late 2014. Back then, when you were trying to find out if you should continue updating the community or give up because of lack of players, will be the future result. You can either speed up or work at 2 features at the same time, fixing the NPAPI and an in-game feature

Back then, when you were trying to find out if you should continue updating the community or give up because of lack of players, will be the future result. You can either speed up or work at 2 features at the same time, fixing the NPAPI and an in-game feature Kogama's success in August 2014 was achieved by advertising in sites such as a10.com and many more People are always leaving every game (for example Roblox) because it's boring, that happens all the time, the problem is how to get more people to replace them. Doing new features isn't going to make people join more, when a person joins he doesn't go to the news and watch what's new and if there's a new feature, join If they visit the game and the game doesn't work, why would you play it? It's the best decision to get the NPAPI issue fixed the fastest so new players can join again, some time can be used to fix minor bugs but starting major development is clearly not About admins not interacting with the community, they never actually did (except for a few single players), everything has stayed the same except for the weekly winners being moved to Sunday because the publisher changed. Same thing applies to "building becoming boring", nothing has changed for the worse (you may feel this if you are becoming bored of the game), you can now build with a better framerate with the standalone client than you could with Unity Web Player When NPAPI issue is fixed and Kogama is advertised again Kogama will rise, if Kogama was never advertised, any game would never even have gotten over 100 online (record is 1800 online in one game at once in July)

I expected such kind of reply. The problem is that there are more players quitting that those that actually join. And those that join don't stay for long.

Of course there are more people quitting than joining, it's because they can't play because of the NPAPI problem and because Kogama isn't advertised anywhere You don't know if new players stay for only a small amount of time, when more people join Kogama, the chance of people who will play actively joining increases
