Kovu hasn't been in communication with the staff in quite some time. It looks as though he is working on a Facebook game, however nobody on the staff has been able to confirm this. He just isn't talking with us anymore
I agree with papayatoot. The staff should make a better effort to contact him, if they haven't already. Keep trying. The source code is obviously a necessary piece of FH, and it could greatly help us expand.
Not trying to be pushy, but it would help. We can try lol??
Yeah I think about this and people say "we can't get into contact with him" but like smh are y'all even trying? go call him up, call up his friends, knock on his doors (lmao jk)
But what I actually want to know is if the guy abandoned his game and didn't plan on returning or working on it ever again, why didn't he leave the source code so other people who still cared about it could? Or he could make a copy of the game so his original work could be saved and then another version could also be developed? Isn't it the same deal with IT? like come on if he had left the code, this came could literally be Aro'Kai.

Are you assuming we aren't trying hard enough? xD Cause it seems like you are.
I've spoken directly with LKD already and even his friends and LKD has made it apparent that he is not parting with the source code. He hasn't made it clear why he doesn't want to give up the source code yet nor if he ever will. He is a busy man. He doesn't seem to have much interest in Feral Heart anymore. It's not the Feral Heart staffs' problem if he isn't decided with what to do with his game. We are just here keeping the community alive and running in his absence. We're not here to force him to do anything he doesn't want to do with his own game.
So yeah. Staff has made efforts to speak with him in all ways... It's KovuLKD who wants nothing to do with Feral Heart as of now. You guys are free to go try and reach him yourselves if you think it so necessary.
You know I like all of your attitudes but to be honest I can't speak for the rest of the staff. We are a small team of mostly old busy folks. I don't know how possible it would be for us to just whip up a new game from scratch but I'm not saying that it hasn't been considered either ^^ For the time being though Feral Heart still has a close place in our hearts and we intend to stick loyally by the community and maintain Feral Heart for however long that we can. There is no sure answer as to what awaits in the future but who knows maybe we could consider the development of a new project one day. I'm not going to gurantee anything though, wouldn't want to get anyone overly excited when no such plans have been made yet if at all. We do appreciate your interest and that you guys would support us if the project did arise.Thank you, Sura. <3 It's good to see that you like how I'm thinking. I also like what you say. :)
Speaking for myself, I truly would love to see Feral Heart evolve further even if in the form of a new game with its likeness ^^
I realized I came off that way, but I didn't mean to.
What would be the point of him keeping it? it sounds like you're defending him when there's no good reason to be keeping the code for himself. if he's not going to do anything more with FH, he should at least take the time to let the community grow elsewhere.
Yes I am grateful the game still exists, but it sounds selfish and stubborn to me. No offence.

I support you Ellen! Wow, that sounds like an amazing idea! What animals would we use however, and would it be apporaite to make it so similar to FH, despite the fact the staff don't own it? I like FH how it is, and I don't know if I'd want to venture away from it. But great idea!

Somewhere I heard the staff members drove KovuLKD off. He apparently got fed up with it all, and abandoned the community.
Eh, I don't think it matters truly why he left anymore. The fact is he isn't here and now we're stuck with this source code problem, which could help the game progress. I'm going to stick with the idea of a new game, and hopefully we get enough people to help us do that!Aye, that's a great idea, I'm working a anthro online game that has stories and stuff. But it does not seem so FH-y, besides the character creation and map-making. Then again, this game's code is only 2% finished. :/
Amazing comment. I entirely agree.
There was a group on Tumblr who were going to remake FH entirely, with a new handmade source and everything, but Kovu actually shut it down for some reason.
So... he doesn't want FH to be improved, apparently, and is entirely against it getting any improvement.
However, there's also a new FH section on KITO- apparently RedEye had been given an earlier version of the FH source by LKD himself and is refining it, and will probably be releasing it to the public... so maybe a new FH is still possible.
The reason to this is because he is still launching out new servers of impressive title, and most of them are under construction at the moment like Isles of Eventide.

Isles of Eventide is in no alliance with KovuLKD and never has been since they began making their own games. IoE is not an IT server anymore, it is an entirely new game that is being made from scratch. Their old IT server was Sanctum of Eventide, and because the Staff of that server now believe they're capable of making their own game, they've moved on from it and went on with their plans.
I have my doubts that KovuLKD would have ever felt like the rest of the Staff didn't appreciate his work. Instead of leaving, Kovu could've easily removed them from their position, so no I don't actually think it cold have been anything to do with the Staff team in general. It just seems like Kovu must have liked FH how it is now and up and left due to not wanting any further updates. Sad really, FH would be all the more amazing to have had more put into the game.
