ITD3 Dev news #1 - The announcement

The state of things As we have mentioned before through the in-game news of Infinitode 2, we are currently busy supporting Infinitode 2 and preparing it to be released in China. In the meantime, Infinitode 3 is being in development, and this blog is meant to shed some light on this process.  It is been a long time since the last update for Infinitode 2 has came out but things will change soon. The reason for such a big delay is simple - if I start working on the next update, the Chinese version of the game will be delayed again, and we have already spent a couple of years on that. As soon as it gets released, I'll begin to work on the next update for Infinitode 2. But, enough talking about that, something tells me you are here to know more about the next game.

Infinitode 2 has been running a device survey since Aug '22 with the consent of the players. Thanks to everyone who have participated in our survey! Survey results are available at  dev.prineside.com/performance_report   The purpose of this survey The collected data will help us better understand which devices we should aim for and which features we should / should not use in our upcoming game. I've also made it publicly available, just in case anyone would need it too. Conclusions Note: all of the statistics are collected from the devices supported by Infinitode 2. Although its requirements are quite low, some of the older / low end devices were not taken into account which makes these statistics slightly off the real-world values.   Applying the filters according to the Infinitode 3 requirements shows that 98.96% of Desktop and 96.22% of Android Infinitode 2 players will still be able to play the sequel Android Documentation states that OpenGL ES 3.0 should be supported by A
