██ DAY 14 █████████████████████████ Whelp, almost 2 weeks into what I would like to call full-time development of NEXIFY my first steam game and so far it’s going decent I’d say. The biggest take away from the last two week is the amount of work it’s going to take to get a game out there that is worthy of Steam. I realize that some people just put whatever up there and hit release, but a Steam release is really the big leagues to me, so I want it to be as close to perfect as it can get.
I also realize that I might be further out then 6 months… I should have that answered in about a month’s time… so lets check in on that on February 19th and see where we are and if I’m a good predictor of my time. I know for sure that I need to have about 10+ stages for the demo, the demo also needs to have some elements of secrets in it to get people excited about the game. The good news is about the demo is those stages are already made somewhat, I’m going to make a it like a full version of the game but bitesize… This means I’m going to have secrets, a boss and one over arching secret and trophy just for the demo… I also think a much bigger secret that will lead people into the game… I LOVE secrets in games 🙂
I honestly also thought I would have gotten more done in the last two weeks, but my day job has just taken over much of this past week. I had a ton of changes work wise and it was just much busier then expected… which is good for me money wise…. bad for my game development wise.
