Hi Hayden,
Well, technically the game is not officially complete until 1.0 is
released. So beta 10 won't necessarily be the full game, but it may be
near complete.
Generally, a software product goes through various release stages. First
you have the Alphas. An Alpha is essentially fresh code, known to have
stability issues, and is far from a complete product. You might think of
this as a very early rough draft of the game. Then, the software product
goes to beta stage. During the beta cycle the game may be somewhat
stable, but isn't a fully complete product. Finally, when the game is
complete it goes through one cycle of testing called the release
candidate stage. Release candidates is simply that. The public tests the
product, looks for last minute bugs and corrections, and then they are
fixed and it is released as 1.0.
So assuming beta 10 is the final beta I will have one possably two
release candidates to make sure the game is stable, works well, and is
ready to be released to the public as 1.0 stable. If so I'll release the
game, and start taking orders.
