The reasons for this are as follows: 1. Game development is not fun. Until I get to designing levels, it really sucks. 2. I've been trying to work on multiple projects at once (mac version, intel mac version, gba version, sega saturn version, ect) 3. I go to school, so I have to do homework... which takes a long time. 4. I can't (and won't) dedicate all of my time to working on the game. 5. ...

The AI that I've made (only allies currently) is supposed to use it's own discretion and avoid enemies and stuff after you give them a general area to move to. Sometimes it works perfectly, and the AI even does kind of cool things that I didn't intend (sending one unit ahead to scout, ect.), but it sometimes randomly runs off the screen and hides from me, even when I order it to move ...
