Major Systems


Warning:

These estimates currently award up to 30% for videos of internal builds which is very different from our main page which requires features be working in the public alpha.

This is a very rudimentary system of measurement that hasn't received much in the way of refinement. It is structured guess, perhaps over time it may reveal the velocity on work being done to the foundational systems.

This page does not factor in work being kept under wraps, negative progress, or technical debt.

Estimate Criteria
0% Progress not covered
10% Progress talked about
20% Progress spoken about at length
30% Progress appears in video or internal demo
40% Feature accessible in specialist alpha
50% Feature accessible in live alpha
60% Feature starting to work and being iterated on
70% Feature working somewhat functional
80% Feature working reliably
90% Feature receiving final tweaks
100% Release ready

Estimated Total Completion: 27%
