I added a new section of the site today on historical information. I want to give a special thank you to Susan for doing an awesome job researching and assembling all the information. Here is the page:

I also fixed a bug on the site and worked a bit on performance. Unfortunately from what I can tell the real performance fix will be to switch to a new host. The fun never ends. :)

No gameplay experiment this weekend, I hope to have something to show next weekend.

A very special culture

Sunday, March 22nd, 2009

My name is Susan Dobis and I have been involved in this project for about 11 months. I have spent a great deal of time researching and learning about the Taino people and have come to truly love this culture and their heritage. The Taino people were so very amazing and this game, at its core, is designed to allow you to experience, as a Taino woman, what it was like to live in this time period in the Caribbean. We really want to give you a taste of this forgotten culture in a way that is fun and exciting. My hope is that you will fall in love with these people and their culture, as I have, and will honor them by understanding the way they lived and appreciating the simpleness of their lives.
