Gaps in development, and some gaps in devblogs, but here we are anyway.
Let’s talk a little about optimising.
Development Progress Report, week 68
Well, it has been a while. Some of the prescribed medication seems to have been interfering with my ability To Get Stuff Done(tm). That said, either I’m getting used to that, or this is a bit of an anomalous bump. Let’s hope for the former.
Development Progress Report, week 67
I spent a bit over a week being pretty sick, so week 67 slipped one cycle.
It’s been a bit slow getting back into the groove, so let’s do something a little different this week.
Development Progress Report, week 66
In which a valuable lesson about Lua is learned.
Development Progress Report, week 65
If it’s Monday, it must be time for an update!
Development Progress Report, week 64
Feedback is awesome! Seriously.
Managing to get a couple of people to give the game a try was incredibly energising and very informative!
Development Progress Report, week 63
It seems like a lot happened this week. Much of it was related to fonts and the new embedded Lua scripting. Oh, and screwing up. There was a reasonable amount of that, too.
Development Progress Report, week 62
Fun with the story-compiler, the scripting interface, and fonts this week. Also discovered a biggish screw-up.
Development Progress Report, week 61
First update of the new year. Spending New Year’s Eve coding is fundamentally on-brand for me, so that’s what I did.
This ultimately resulted in the largest update to the game in quite a while.
Development Progress Report, week 60
Well, I’ve built a lot on top of last week’s successes. Splitting the save-files into multiple sub-files was a good move. Following the logical thread of that, the compiled story-file is now a set of sub-files as well; and I was able to do something pretty awesome with that.
