Hello guys ;)
This time I decided that I will NOT keep you waiting for few weeks before posting again.
Actually I finally have some decent news (personally I would call these 'good', but maybe not everyone is going to share my enthusiasm so I am sticking to 'decent'). I made myself a surprise on Saint Nicholas Day (6th December) and actually returned directly to 'Civilization'!
Why now of all times? Does that mean I am not busy with my work anymore?
Actually, I decided to give up on one of my real-life hobbies, what gave me some additional free time - hopefully enough to keep my focus at high enough level to rejoin Meretrix indefinitely ;)
Putting that aside for a second - I still have a busy period at work - so no promises about the amount of time I could be spending on The Endless World but last 3 days gave me enough time to feel satisfied with the progress.
Well, maybe not a real progress - there is no new content added yet, after the break. What I have done in the last 72 hours then?
1. Played the game myself for the first time. - I don't like testing, so I usually save such things for much later. The surprising fact is that playing the implemented content (and I only choose one route for every quest - haven't checked everything - though I DID complete all the side quests) took me 3 hours and 20 minutes. I hope I didn't slack off somewhere during the playthrough and the clock is showing the right time. Oh - and I obviously didn't skip any dialogues and always chose the longest solutions. (for example intro can be skipped almost fully, and I decided to go with the highly detailed one - which included summary of the begininng)
2. Fixed A LOT of smaller and bigger bugs. Tackled some spellings - BUT not all of them yet :P
3. Fixed quite a few system issues - hopefully overcame my earlier struggling with the bars on top of the screen.
Tonight - I am going to bed. But probably next time I will have a spare time I will finally be back to adding the content to the game! :)
If the Lady Luck allows this is going to be a really nice December and a great way of entering the new year ;)
Keep tuned guys :)
Sounds like you're having great progress! Hope this keeps up!
OdpowiedzUsuńI wouldn't go as far as to say it's 'great', but - yes it's much better than last months ;) I am hoping to stabilize this decent period at the beginnning of the new year ;)
UsuńOn one hand i am sorry that you had to give up your hobby, on the other i am happy that you're working again on Civilization, either way it's great hearing from you.
OdpowiedzUsuńWell, I am actually happy as the 'hobby' was just one of these that make people waste time, without any really good sides of the creative nature :)
