Up Next

Finished off the editor overhaul yesterday, updated test flight, the web build and sent a new one out to apple.

Looks good so far. Now we are getting to the bigger ticket items. Talked about it yesterday and decided that of the four major elements that need to be added,

1. AI

2. Async Play

3. Map Sharing

4. other device/resolution development

Async will be the deciding fact in creating a community who actively plays the game and wants to see updates. Other device development would also increase this base, but it would not keep them active long enough for the async update to roll out.

Thankfully Matt and I did some pre-planning back in November so we kinda already know how this is going to work development wise.Before I jump into that kind of work however, i want to make sure that all the smaller (easier to code) elements are out of the way.

Which means i finally get to create a proper post-game report. As a strategy player i have always loved the stats and graphs shown at the end of my game and one of the best games that does this is Starcraft. It shows a host of great statistical information that really drills down into how a player did over time.
