Thought I’d better post quick update about what I have been doing for the last month, or more to the point, what I have not been doing. I’m not quite sure where all the time has gone, but it has gone nonetheless.
On off I’ve been trying to get over a particular hurdle on the desktop version, and it’s just about swapping resolutions. I don’t want to just allow the player to swap through all the possible resolutions that their monitor can handle, so I have implemented a system of, Fullscreen, and then Small/Medium/Large window version. The main issue is changing the internals of the system after the initial selection. It’s not a big, nor complicated job, it’s just one of those meh pieces that I seem to be unable to keep myself interested in for more than a few moments. It kind of feels a little like the Android version. That became a toil because I wasn’t really that interested in it at first, that is, all the work required to support multiple resolutions. So the work just dragged.
I think this is also on the back of two solid months of coding on the project. It feels like I’m having a little post release wobble. Hopefully I can get my coding mojo back soon so that I can get the desktop version out of the way….
Good to hear you’re not giving up. I’m eagerly anticipating the desktop version of Lords of Midnight, so I’m hoping it’ll be out soon. Best of luck going forward.
Stick in there Chris, it will be worth it when its done! 🙂
