Update Time
🕑 Added 2017-10-09 08:23:51 +0000 UTC So, several things to mention, so I'll go ahead and dive right in.Currency Name Poll
I'll be posting the poll tomorrow, I got two suggestions and a pass, so there will be a couple choices for you to choose from. I won't name any names until after the poll's over to avoid any bias. The bigger raffle (in my humble opinion) for the month name will be soon, but I haven't set an exact date. I'd like to do this one at a different time, so a different set of people have an opportunity to watch if they want.
Art Funs
Arteria's take on a surprised expression. The full image is on the Discord server like before.
New Slightly-Improved Look
I haven't had time to do much in the way of UI art, but there's no reason to leave things looking plain. There's really a huge degree of freedom for designing the UI, it just takes time to do it. I probably won't bother with highly-animated UI elements, but I would like to at least stylize the UI bars with background images to give it a more "traditional game layout" look, with a little less of a webpage appearance.
Upcoming Work and Such
Aside from setting up a new laptop tomorrow to improve my workflow a bit, I'm going to mostly be working on misc items, and the week summary/planner. Rather than wait a longer time between releases for a finished piece of the puzzle, I'm going to do releases as I get things finished. These will be happening quicker, but also won't have as much in them. I'm not going to spend a lot of time trying to make things pretty, but rather I'm going to focus on tying everything so far together and getting out of the prologue. I also won't be taking time to do bug fix releases unless there's something game-breaking, as releases should be coming out about every 5 days or so anyway.
Some of the major items I'll be working on before the next public release:
- week summary & planning menus
- more jobbing
- basic maps of downtown and the "world map" of the Appletree area
- basics of the home system for player home
- tying everything together
I've got a lot to do, so I'm going to get cracking!
