025 Blog Updated and A MAZE Awards
Monday 4th Feb 2019
6:25am
Trying to get an early start in today to avoid the stop start nature of Mondays (Tuesdays are the same) so I’m in the office already.
First things first – update the blog. Once that’s done I’m down to get a new build out to Publishers today, so will be doing some QA and bug fixes too. Today is also the deadline for the A MAZE Awards, so I need to register our game for that (assuming we can do so without physically attending that is), and ideally use the new build for it too.
8:15am
And I’m done with the blog. I had to spend a bit of time sorting out some issues with our YouTube account which was a necessary pain. I’m stopping for breakfast and the school run, I’ll post the blog on social media when I’m back and then get started on making/testing a new build.
9:30am
Back to work. I’m going to get the blog posted on social media then get straight into the new build for publishers.
3:05pm
This blog feels like it's taking a bit of backseat to some serious focused work, sorry! Short story is I got lots done, but had to do lots of testing and lots of bug fixing / polish.
Oh, and the article that got printed in the local paper last week got posted online too! You can check it out here: https://www.cambridgeindependent.co.uk/business/minibeasts-duo-calling-out-their-amigos-9060942/
Gotta run for the school run!
3:50pm
Back!
6pm
Stopping for dinner! Just been testing and fixing non-stop, it's amazing how long it takes.
6:30pm
Back! Having a bit of a crunch day so the build is ready for the Amaze Awards submission
10:40pm
Feels like Uni all over again, working right up until the deadline! I’m shattered, nothing to say other than testing, then fixing has been the non-stop cycle since about 1pm today, and typically s*@t just decided to not work right near the end in true sods-law fashion...
Anyway, it’s done now - I also managed to squeeze in the small child’s VO somehow - and the submission to the Amaze Awards has been made! I again didn't get round to sorting builds/emails out for Publishers so that will have to happen later in the week.
Adios amigos!
