Unexpected Changes

Yesterday was a little hectic, pulled in too many ways, trying to get builds out to Gameblyr & to us. This has been complicated itself ever since we transferred ownership of the App of to them.

This has a surprisingly large impact & one we didn't completely comprehend until after we did it. By transferring the App, we lost all means of creating new builds with our Apple Developer Profile. That means no new devices may be added since all provision profiles & certificates attached to Pathogen also vanished.

If there are new people who need to get their hands on the game we need to do so through Gameblyr's Developer Account.

But its all worked out, in a very stable place right now.

So lets talk about something different, how we have been tracking our issues. As you have seen in the last post we just do it all in a list. Normally a development studio would use some kind of issue tracking service, ie: Mantis. Where a ticket is created per issue. These issues each have their own status that is updated as the issue is worked on.

While this is a great tool, we don't really need something that comprehensive. The thing is that its only Matt & I working on this. So a Google doc is really all we need, we can both be adding to/crossing off items from the list without conflict. But maybe next project, it would help us get a little more organized.

Getting the feeling I want to do a post mortem soon, maybe on Monday we will all sit down & do that.
