Delve Prototype Launch Update - 1

This project is a school project that I am a part of for my senior capstone. I am working as the Lead Quality Assurance as well as the Lead Sound Design, but I also help with general design and development. This sprint's development was mainly focused on creating new technical and mechanical systems within the game. I was tasked with helping create a mini-game system that would appear when the player was mining resources.

I did not delegate my time well during this sprint, so I had to crunch a lot more than I had initially hoped. This was partly because I failed to plan my approach to the task before taking it on, so I was stuck for longer than I anticipated.

Some major things that I learned during this project's first development phase are:

• Planning out my approach to solutions before diving into the project/code is important for ease of development later on.
• Managing my time correctly throughout the development sprint is crucial to keeping the team on track.
• UI visual representation is important for the player's overall quality of play and experience.

This first phase was launched to itch.io on 09/30/2024.
