I realised that I had not updated my blog for a while and since you are now reading this you realise that I decided to continue it.

So here we go....

There is a number of things I should add, we now have a new member to our team who will be doing our music and sound within the game, I would mention who this is but as we are not ready to reveal anything on our game yet I won't. We are also in the middle of talks to bring on an artist as well to primarily do the concept art and textures but also pitch in with the 3D modelling.

So as you can see we are progressing however the actual progression of our pre-production is going forward but slowly, this is beginning to change due a very nifty program that we found. Since I am not entirely sure on the level of our license yet I won't say the name but due to how much it is helping as soon as I do figure that out I will be willing to splash the name all over the front of our project!

Now I know that with an Indie game, the pre-production can be less rigid than in a "AAA" game but I do believe that in order to do the best that we can we should still have to follow some rules. So we are ignoring all of the High Concept and Pitch for obvious reasons as there is no publisher or investor other than ourselves but the Game Design Document (GDD) really will help with the production so that we all know where we stand.

The Competitive Game Analysis (CGA) is perhaps something that you can ignore, we aren't but at the same time since we would finish this project anyway we are just using it to reduce any weaknesses our game may have.

When these parts have been finalised we will move onto the Proof of Concept, again something that is perhaps only really required within the realms of "AAA" game development but I feel it will enable us to garner more interest in our project earlier in its development.

OK so that is more than enough from me, I thought I may add something though. If you are reading this and you are interested in creating a game for yourself then please don't hesitate to ask for advice whether by comment or message. I don't know everything but I will help if I can.
