Dec. 20th, 2005 02:45 pmMy old iBook, purchased mid-2001, continues to hold up pretty well... I am reminded of my many friends who still use their curvy black Pismo PowerBooks, a form factor even older than that. But I think I'll look into maxing out its RAM this week, since I can damn-straight claim that as a business expense. I actually just looked at how much it has now, and boggled: only 256MB! Half what I thought, and a quarter of what it oughtta be. Well, easily solved. Heh, it will be fixed up just in time for the Hunt, eh?
Fluxx work has entered the serious debugging phase, where I play games against myself until all the really obvious problems are gone. After I can play a few times without one client or the other getting hung or drawing something incorrectly, or the referee doing something wrong, I will start tapping people to beta-test. This, I am really looking forward to, for it will be the first time that Javolin really starts to receive some coordinated beta-testing attention as well.
This is not to be confused with the public beta, which is much more ambitious. It's our mid-term goal, comprising the short-term goals of getting our launch titles cleaned up and working, building the volity.net website, and getting all of our business stuff set up and squared away.
Started redoing all the Keeper graphics last night. Instead of trying to create all the images from piles of regular circles and rectangles, I'm just freehanding things... they look goofy and irregular, and I think that you will like them. I'll aim have the whole set done before next week. I definitely want it done before inviting beta-testers in, anyway.
