BulletSoulOrb.png WHAT'S NEXT IN ENIV? BulletSoulOrb.png

Pack your bags and get your hooves ready for a long journey because we're taking you with us as we build Eniv!

Keepers of Eniv has always been dedicated to transparency, and in an effort to improve that, we've created this page to show you what we're working on, where we're at with each project, and what our plans for the future are. Of course, we'll have smaller projects in the meantime (new items, pets, Enivi released, events, etc) but this is our list of larger projects we have planned to improve the game. 

We're excited to share these updates with you and to have you along with us!

BulletSoulOrb.png ICON GUIDE BulletSoulOrb.png

These icons are beside each project title below. They'll let you know what stage of the project we're at, if we need help with funding, or if the project is being finished up and about to be released. This first section explains what each of the icons means before we get into the future projects planned to expand and improve Keepers of Eniv.

Planning MagnafyingGlass.png

This means a project is currently being fully planned. In this phase, we make mockups of how the new feature will function, how pages will look, and how the back-end will run on the staff side of things. This includes both written and visual components to make sure we know exactly what we're doing and where we're headed.

Awaiting Start BulletClock.png

Once the planning is done we give the information to our team, but sometimes there can be a small delay. This can be due to scheduling times, gathering resources, or ironing out last minute conflicts in the design we hadn't recognized until we started to really dig into the process of getting things started, but once this tag has been applied the wheels are in motion.

Coding BulletComputer.png

This marker means that the coding of the new feature (when coding is needed) has begun!

Artwork Being Created BulletPaintBrush.png

Likewise, this means that the artwork is currently being created (when needed) for the new feature.

Coding Finished BulletComputerCheck.png

When the coding is completed and the first rounds of bug testing are finished, this marker applied!

Artwork Finished BulletPaintbrushCheck.png

When we believe all the artwork for a project has been finished, we add this marker!

Testing BulletTesting.png

This means the feature is currently put together and is being tested before release.

Finishing Touches BulletHoneycomb.png

We're getting close! This marker means we've got all the components finished and are just squashing a few last-minute bugs we've found or adding a few last-minute details in the artwork. Or maybe we've realized the UI could use a few slight changes for your benefit before we release things to the public. Whatever the reason, we're taking a little extra time to clean things up before we send things out to you, but you can expect to see the finished results soon!

Currently Seeking Funds BulletNeedFunding.png

This means we're currently fundraising for this feature over at the Donation Shop!

Fully Funded BulletFundingMet.png

We're fully funded! This means we've gotten the funds for this feature and are set to start on production!

CompletedBulletGreenCheck.png

The best tag of all! This means the feature is finished and is currently on the site.

On Hold BulletYeild.png

This tag means a project has been placed on the back-burner for now while we focus on other projects. It could be that it didn't reach the required funded we needed in time, or that we had something more important arise in the meantime, but rest assured, we'll come back to this project!

Abandoned BulletNo.png

A sad, but sometimes necessary tag. This tag means that the feature was abandoned for the listed reason.
