DEVELOPMENT ROADMAP
Untethered is developed by a solo developer, so while I do my best to predict how long things will take, sometimes I get it wrong.
Be sure to join the Discord to provide suggestions, feedback, and ask questions. There is also a live changelog to keep you up to date with day-to-day development.
But with that said, here's the rough roadmap!
