Define "development". It's a bit like timings on your PC. There's wall time (we started 5 years ago) and CPU time (maybe 1 year). AKA, we have had to wait a lot of time for things to happen. And we still need to. We don't pay, so things get done late, if at all. Sucks, but unless we have the financial means, we'll stay in this position.
On a more positive side, we're close to showing gameplay. This should drive more potential fans to our sites, which gives more publicity and more potentially interested developers.
