Close to two weeks ago, I said that the concept of making the game start as a single character experience and slowly grow into a multi-character game was making more sense. I've got a whole bunch of tabs here in my browser that I refresh each day to catch up on various things, and I saw that post each morning reminding me to get cracking.
And so, although it's been quiet here, I've been making stupid amounts of changes to the code, to the app, to the server, tweaking layouts, making so many updates I didn't think I needed to do - and fixing so many bugs that it introduced... but I think I am there. I just did a commit with 39 files, which is much more than it should be, but I didn't want to commit halfway through.
I'm really not wanting to go through all the changes that had to be made - and I've not even started on content itself, making sure that it is do-able with a lone character early in the game, but now that I think it all the code is working, I can start looking at that part now.
So, the plan tomorrow will be to clean out my account, give things a run through in some more detail. I've got all the main parts working how they should, and I did a bunch of testing along the way with each part, but I want to see more of the whole thing together.
Fingers crossed. A day or two of testing, and it might be time.
