Hey guys I am back from Japan and I am ready to get going again. I hope you guys are too. We know we need to meet up, but until we do I was going to post what I think our meeting should prioritize.
There are 2 big things for us to discuss.
1) What do we want to do with Splatz?
2) What do we want to do for capstone?
They are kind of the same question. Do we want to continue on with Splatz for capstone? If so where do we draw the line on being done with Splatz "one/alpha"?
Personally I feel that we need to get Splatz out asap and turn our focus to capstone. We won't be able to focus on both at the same time. Maybe we do continue Splatz in capstone, but make everything black like Ray said. So we get Splatz one polished and out the door.
Things I was thinking Splatz needs.
1) what ever cleaning up Ted wants to do under the hood. Maybe not restarting from scratch for this version.
2) sounds need serious polishing up. I personally need to sit down with Brian and get on the same page.
3) animations need a little cleaning up. Not much, just fine tuning.
4) I think we need something that teaches the player how to use the arrow keys for throwing paint.
5) Ted or Brian, is there a way to save your progress? Like after you complete a level maybe save the scores from that level? Or if you make it to level 7 and exit, have the game remember that your still on level 7 so you don't have to play the first 6 over again?
6) do we have an exit button?
Any other changes people feel are needed please add them. As for question 2. Even if we are going to continue Splatz for capstone I think everyone should come up with other game ideas, return to our pitching posts, start again, add some. We can always use them after capstone even if we don't use them this time.
now to send out emails and text asking you guys to read this.
Josh
