Pfffffffff ! That was an intense week !

So in the order, that gives :

  • worked my ass off to provide good game footage to the Motion Designer so he could create a good trailer, which included the addition of a smooth mouse mode and then an advanced smooth flyby mode with waypoints in the game
  • designed & refined the trailer’s storyboard
  • screenshots & gameplay video for the Greenlight page
  • Key system & buy system for the game
  • Race bonuses : it was even faster than what I planned ; instead of using the Talent System, I used the Class system which was very straightforward to apply the race bonuses (eg: +1 Strength, and stuff like that) ; and it contains the root for the Talents, so I could extend it if some Modders ask me about it :)
  • some serious debugging & cleaning in the game
  • pre-releasing the game for sale here => http://www.managames.com/DungeonGuardians/buy-the-game/
  • writing & sending French Press Release
  • posting in Forums over the Internet
  • writing the English Press Release, feeling “meh” when reading it, and thus ending hiring services of a professional marketing agency in emergency !
  • feverishly looking the Greenlight “Yes votes” counter  raises, minute by minute, till breaking the Top 100 in 60 hours, and being #36 at time of this writing ! Hopefully, it means the game will get greenlit this week, but it still needs a bunch of votes to reach the Top 10, where it’ll be almost sure to get Steam’s eyes on it

So this new week will be hopefully a bit more quiet, with “only” :

  • English PR handling
  • finally designing & integrating the 3rd mage’s specialization
  • adding a few different attack visual FX for the mobs, to bring a bit more variation to the game
  • releasing the final 1.0 version (the Rogue class will come with v1.0a at end of the month)
  • try to get some reviews on popular sites
  • resting & sleeping a bit before I die..! :-P

Cya in 1 week if I make it..!
