Game Update
We managed to successfully test our Steam Achievement for the game this week and everything is working! Now we just need to author all the achievements for the game so that players will have something to earn. I have a couple of ideas for some things to add. Here is a list:
Each Level
Game Completion
Starting the game
Filling out every squad with 7 troops
Filling out one squad with 7 troops
Making a certain damage number
Making a certain amount of money
Finding hidden levels
Creating one of every class
I Guess we could go on an on with ideas for a while. I also need to create specific icons for the achievements. Right now I’m using a bottle that is empty and then gets filled. That might work for now I suppose. I’m not sure if I can find something that is more in line with the theme of the 6 Aspects however. I could have some Aspect related achievements too. Something like having all the same aspect on a squad etc…
I’m getting read to work Momo con at the end of this month for Japanime games. I have some new business card ready to go for when I am off the clock with them. It should be a great time to meet some people and work on my elevator pitch. I might do some game key give aways at the convention too.
Personal Update
Visited my girlfriend this weekend. I had to travel a bit to get to her, but it was well worth it to take the boys to a different place. They had a lot of fun at her house while we were there. I’m so thankful to have her in my life, and I hope that we keep moving forward with our relationship. I’m glad I was able to do this before the boys are away for the summer. It was very important to me. I’d say the highlight of the trip was including the girlfriend in a long running legacy game that I have been playing with my two oldest sons.
When we returned home we found that the board game “Cash Flow” and the expansions for “Root” had been delivered. I’m super excited to dive in to both of these. My oldest son couldn’t wait and so we set up a game of Cash Flow and played a couple of turns. I hope that it helps me get more financially smart about the way I handle money.
My boys go away for the summer soon and it’s always difficult. I have a bunch of things on my list to do while they are away though. One of the top things will be getting all the levels built out for the video game along with the all new choice system. There are some other household items that need to be taken care of as well too. I’m also looking to work out a bit more and get back into running.
