There hasn't been much progress in the last months. My free time was very limited and while there is a certain amount of steady external traffic, showing that there is interest in the game, there were no contributions from other developers.
Also the development is a bit stuck. The original code has been simplified quite a significant amount without giving up functionality. The properties of Java helped a lot in this regard. But there are still some knots and complex parts left in the code structure. It would require quite a substantial continued effort to rework the code before you could even think about adding new features.
With the changes in how Java is deployed (modular JARs, JavaFX not included anymore) also some changes to the infrastructure of the project are necessary.
But I recently checked and the game still starts smoothly. I think it's therefore possible to continue right at the point where development stopped. I just hope that I or someone else will find the time.
