Hi everyone! This week I've been fixing some last loose ends, and trying to get the new update out as fast as I can. Racing is done, and fishing is almost done. If I don't finish it this weekend, I'll finish it next weekend (but remember my theorem actual programming time = expected programming time^2). Once I'm ready, this is what I plan to do:
1. Upload it to Desura, and wait for it to get accepted.
2. Once it is online, inform the server admins, so they can update and activate their servers again.
3. Once at least one server is online, invite the next group of testers (all at once, the splitting I did before turned out not to be necessary at all).
4. Release another build or two, only focussing on bug fixes and balancing, on the basis of feedback. After each new release, a new test group will be invited.
5. [As you know], I let some features out of the new minigames to be able to release the new update earlier. Once everything works and is fun, I'll start implementing this more detailed stuff. Most requested first, of course.
6. Once the most requested stuff is in, I'll start working on integrating everything with the achievement system and make the achievement system more visible in general. What I've got right now is a bit sad:
7. Once the minigames are working, balanced, and fun, I'll pick another focus area. This will very likely be: TOWNS!
Yay, its almost here!!!!
Yeya.Good work! I cant wait to play in this
:D
can't wait to see how it turns out.
