My brother was actually available to help this weekend, and we got through another batch of defects. We sat down for about 10 hours over the last two days and got through about 5 - 7 defects we tasked ourselves with, along with a couple of minor features to support the navigation feature and its… Continue reading Attacking defects

A slow week
Most indie developers, have a full time or a part time job. Very few of us can actually work full time on our projects and in those cases it is usually only for a short amount of time we can dedicate our full work week to our project. Dedicating more time to high risk endeavours… Continue reading A slow week
Teamwork
Me and my brother went through the game and looked at all the annoyances that we found and what needs to be improved immediately. We found at least 10 issues that we wanted to solve today, but were only able to solve 7 of them. The rest needed a little bit more work to get… Continue reading Teamwork
The team is growing
My brother is now assisting me with the development of my game. He helps me out every other weekend, and will get some money and experience in return. It was quite refreshing seeing him get up to speed and basically implementing game features within the hour of sitting down with me. He is quite apt at programming… Continue reading The team is growing
Another year of making games…
I am heading into the second year with a totally different approach of making games. I am not going to get lost with pie in the sky grand designs and some artistic magnum opus, but try to pick the most basic features and sets that can make a game interesting. And as a first go,… Continue reading Another year of making games…

Week 50
So, this time around I was back at 3D modeling and photoshop work. Sketching levels on pieces of paper and creating puzzles, while simplifying my game down to its most simple form. I am even going to remove the counter element from the Programming UI. So there only will be two types of generic triggers… Continue reading Week 50
49th week
So, I scrapped a feature from my game that has taken me about 4 man months to develop. Do I get a prize? There are no prizes, just the education and neurochemical imprint on my brain, that will work as a development wingman going forward hopefully. The realization I had, did not cause a debate in… Continue reading 49th week
Feature drop
After taking a lot of time to implement certain things, and seeing the trouble of making many interesting problems to solve with it. I am dropping the programming features of NOP. The code editor and lua/asm sandbox is going into the pause bin, to be maybe reviewed at some point later for other projects that… Continue reading Feature drop
48th week
So, I have been working for about 15 hours today. Moved almost all the Daikon Forge UI I had made, over to the new Unity UI that is coming in Unity 4.6. I am fine with using the beta version of that particular system, since I will not be releasing any time soon. Moving the… Continue reading 48th week
