So good luck with the Kickstarter Project.<br />What would be the worst case?<br />You lost a couple of weeks dev time.<br /><br />Sledge Hammernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2155975839837227856.post-57907804383273614272012-10-23T13:26:12.215-07:002012-10-23T13:26:12.215-07:00Hi Sledge,
Why are you worried about the late imp...Hi Sledge,<br /><br />Why are you worried about the late implementation of AI? Part of the reason why I haven't implemented AI yet is that the data structure in the game were constantly changing. To have AI work, I'd have to update it for every data change. I've finally settled on a final data structure as mentioned in another post. However, it's requiring an overhaul of the current data system/controls :( So it's taking me some time...<br /><br />But rest assured, after the game's functioning, my main focus will be on AI. I'm not really a multi-player fan in 4X games (but I do hope to add support for that in the future), so for the game to be complete, the game must have working AI. It won't be an afterthought.<br /><br />Yes, my experience with setting up Beyond Beyaan on Desura felt like a day job. So when I set up the kickstarter, my development will suffer even more. But I hope that it'll be successful so I can hire some help (I'm thinking of multiplayer programmer and sounds/effects programmer) to finish the game. It'll be a lot faster if the kickstarter is successful than if I didn't try it and just work on it myself.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01783554795252345413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2155975839837227856.post-3057584906820028212012-10-23T12:22:15.035-07:002012-10-23T12:22:15.035-07:00Hi Brent,

Its a day job if you want to believe some of those who wrote comments about how they have been successful or not successful.<br /><br />Kickstarters popularity itself does not help you much, if the people on there dont find you. Actually there should be quite some press coverage leading people towards your project.<br />You can probably count on space-game related websites to cover you, but big sites need to be somewhat convinced.<br /><br />Anyway, I like the idea and would pledge as one of the first!<br />Sledge Hammernoreply@blogger.com
