Hello all,
I must say that I didnt expect to be reminded I needed to update my road map for this year but I will be doing so soon. Members only though will be able to access it. Members I will post in this thread the link so you dont have to look everywhere for it. That being said, The past few months have been interesting for me, I got married, dealt with alot of personal things, started getting my farm started, list goes on. One thing I want to accomplish this year is having a prototype that all can play. BY december I will have a Prototype if at all possible with everything else going on. I am a one man team. My wife will in the next few months start to be on the forum more and more.
I hope to have some activity going(New RP) in the mean time of my coding the prototype/games. I gave myself 14 days to figure out the mechanics in a Paradoxian Game(HOI4 for those wondering) and I stopped early because I couldnt stand to play/study it any longer. I will be doing research till the 20th, then from that I will be doing C++ lessons again and SFML lessons. BY December I am hoping to have a decent prototype.
Members:
You will have a link here when I create the road map that is more detailed.
Guests:
I understand that some of you may or may not want to join the forum. Honestly that is your decision, but when I am coding... Unless My Wife comments/creates a thread here, you will not be notified of anything.
I am being honest and completely transparent when it comes to facts. Now I can answer questions sometimes when I am taking a break from coding or the like. I know my wife will be asking me a ton of questions if you all ask her to do so. I am thinking of asking her to create a thread just for questions to be answered. I also am thinking to create a Complaint Board, Suggestions Board, Complements Board, etc when the time comes. I may already have a suggestions board somewhere(tried to get others to help me organize this forum better and you all see where it stands now).
All in All please remember I am a ONE man team. I am doing pretty much everything myself. I have been in talks with others about this that and the other, but nothing has panned out as of yet(graphical,audio,UI,GUI,Music,etc). I am doing mostly coding and trying to make everything work out the way it should. Making my own game engine, so it will take longer than normal.
I also want to state here, I am rethinking my stance on Mods(certified only mods for my games) and how to deal with different situations. Got many ideas how to deal with them but will be discussing more with my Wife/Community Manager than anything.
If you all want to join the forum, I will tell you that active members of the forum will get a discount on the first game and possibly a special invite to a testing schedule(free for them). Something I have thought about for a while is how to reward those that deserve it without making those that dont get the reward feel bad. Just remember with this forum, it will be different than other game companies.
Thank you,
Drew
