All the fixins
As I prepare for demonstrations that have not been scheduled, there have been a lot of outstanding bugs and things to improve. So here’s this week’s efforts: File system queue..ue? I’ve been plagued by issues related to the asynchronous nature of cloud saving, and my half-solution was just not...
Prepping Anyway
No notivation like motivation, and mo’ motivation is better still. While SSDT has not been selected for Pre-PAX this year, I am keeping the momentum I had from prepping the demo, and prepping the demo anyway! It’s important to get feedback as Season Mode comes together, and as I...

When coding a project, you can over-optimize too early, and do yourself no favors. There’s no sense in optimizing something that isn’t hogging the game down too much. Good coding habits can prevent a lot of issues. Well, it certainly isn’t too early to look at the Unity profiler...

Life things continue to be insane and time consuming, and progress somehow continues to be made. So here’s a delayed dev blog to prove I’m not a total slacker. I’d been adjusting the difficulty of the CPU based on their rank, but I’ve decided that wasn’t enough. You could...
Dev:Blog Ratio
In an effort to work more on the game than I spend writing about it, I’ll be brief. 2nd Season Yep, after the ending, a new season begins! Finally. The cool part is your fans keep accumulating from last season, so it’s a nice incentive to give it another...
