Update of Updates
Boy, I got lots of things to blog about – my Kolbe Index, Lord of the Rings, and the Film Festival, in which Ricky and I saw two movies – London to Brighton and 2:37 (YAY!). We got things to say about that – but before I compose a full blog entry for each of these, I’ll post a little update of updates.
So on Tuesday, I went for the interview. There were a few other people in front of me, so I waited for a few minutes on the sofa in the lobby. The guy in front of me had a 5-minute interview. I had a 3-minute interview.
So I came in, shook hands with Michael, and sat down. He asked me if I visited the website, and I said I did, for a couple minutes. Then I handed him my resume, and he looked it over and said “so, you’re more of an IT guy, eh?” So I said yeah, and then he asked, “are you interested in a door-to-door sales position?”
I said “no, not really.” So then we talked for a little bit more. I asked why they considered me, and it turns out they just e-mail (random?) people about the position, people with resumes on Monster.ca. We decided that they’ve gotta stop e-mailing people in IT, and instead e-mail people with some sales experience.
And that was the end of that interview.
Secondly, the last time I posted something about my game was approximately 4 weeks ago, with version 0043, updated to 0046. 4 weeks is about 20 business days, and so I just finished 0062 today. The next demo version… is coming. And I think it will be much bigger and more exciting. I just added something new to your arsenal, something a lot of fun – it’s making testing so enjoyable! I LOVE IT! Also, of course, the game should handle a bit better, with less enemies pushing you through walls, and lesser loading times, sorta.
So 0062 is done, but I don’t think the demo will be released until at least 0072, or even 0082. Eww, that sounds like 4 weeks… shouldn’t take that long though. Still gotta add a lot of stuff, work out a few kinks and wrinkles.
Also, I could use your help. If you’d like to design a village for me, or put in some people that talk, that would be great. Ricky’s already making a forest for me, so that will be in the next demo version. I still have lots of empty houses in the forest village, those should be filled too. So wanna help? Just draw something and bring it over.
