Online progress log

I am placing the project's to-do list and
change logs online publicly using Trello.
This way, people can see what is being done,
what feedback is being taken on board and
what to expect in future updates.

A podcast with Matthias Lenardt

I recorded a podcast about my games development with the wonderful Matthias Lenardt. This man has been of great help to me over the last couple of years with his wise and kind words. It was a pleasure to finally speak with him in virtual person over the internet.

Music Music Music

On the lead up to release, I have been making music for the game.

It took a took time to get started on this piece of music. It sounded like a big mess after a few hours but over the course of the day it slowly came into focus.

Preparing for steam release

I have submitted Hyper Flight to Valve for its Steam release later this month.
The Steam store page has been approved.
Here it is.
store.steampowered.com/app/1039430/Hyper_Flight/

I will need to include controller support in the pause menu in order to advertise controller support on the store page. I intend to do this as use of a controller is recommended to play the game well. So adding controller support to the menus generally will be my next task.

I have also been working on some music. Here it is a link to a track that I made recently
