After 4.​5 years of development, Ape Reunion acknowledges their slower-than-expected progress while reaffirming their commitment to building an MMORPG around their NFT collection.​

Key Updates:

  • The team has conducted multiple iterations and live community playtests
  • Development continues despite challenges and setbacks
  • Focus remains on creating a "true MMORPG" integrated with their NFTs
  • The project has prioritized giving value back to holders before seeking additional funding

Development Philosophy:

  • Team removed strict timeline expectations to "build the right thing"
  • Emphasis on long-term vision over rushed releases
  • Game release described as "cherry on top" with more planned afterward

The team thanked their community for patience and financial support, positioning themselves as one of few projects building genuine gameplay experiences rather than focusing solely on extraction.​ They acknowledge the work isn't finished but maintain their original vision remains intact.​
