Developer's Log 16

Jul 18, 2007 23:59

Wowie! It's been way too long since my last post! I sure was optimistic back then. Thinking I could finish Arc IV in time for May. Silly game designer.

Now Arc IV is nearing completion for real. This journal has served me well as a way to motivate myself in the earlier development stages of the game. As I get deeper into production though I seem to gain enough momentum to finish it without a journal to focus my thoughts. Still I wish I would keep this updated more often. There is so much I want to talk about but I need to keep bottled in for a few more weeks until the game is officially released.

I know I will probably end up saying this every time at the end of the arc but this is the best arc yet. The characters that have been introduced in the game have been fleshed out way more. The dungeons offer challenges never seen before in earlier dungeons mostly because I didn't have the scripting knowhow back then that I do now. There is also one wicked side-quest that I am sure everyone will be talking about. Yep, this arc has it all and then some. Even though I am really excited to get started on the next arc, I can still look back on this one with pride.

I doubt there will be many more developer logs posted here. I plan on getting a forum up on the website when I redo it and that is most likely where my musings will move to. For now though they will remain here. I want to thank everyone who comes by here still and reads these even if you don't post a comment. It is good to know they are getting some use outside of a place to share my thoughts.
