Week 151

By Kars | Published: July 9, 2012

I guess this was one of those weeks that is typ­i­cal of work dur­ing sum­mer. Which is to say: we made some attempts at tying up loose ends on run­ning projects and put some effort into start­ing up new ones but oth­er than that not much of any­thing got done. I met up again with […]

Week 150

By Kars | Published: July 2, 2012

Last week was a short week as I took a day off on Mon­day. I’m try­ing to see if I can do that every oth­er week, at least dur­ing the sum­mer months. The assump­tion is that a lit­tle less time spent in the stu­dio and in stead spent out­side improves both my work­ing and my […]

Week 149

By Kars | Published: June 26, 2012

I had the absolute lux­u­ry of doing a lot of sus­tained work on Saba this week. We’re near­ing the dead­line for deliv­ery of a release can­di­date and are more or less on sched­ule. On mon­day I was joined by Alper who had come over from Berlin to do his part for anoth­er Hack the Gov­ern­ment […]

Week 144–147

By Kars | Published: June 10, 2012

Hav­ing returned from a few weeks hol­i­day­ing in Indone­sia it is time to get back into the rhythm of these week notes. So to begin, a quick recap of what hap­pened in the days lead­ing up to my depar­ture: Sto­ry­board­ed a sce­nario illus­trat­ing the play­er expe­ri­ence of Kani and pre­sent­ed it to the client. Now […]

Week 143

By Kars | Published: May 14, 2012

The pre­vi­ous week was the last full work week before I take a break, which starts this Thurs­day. So we’re wrap­ping up run­ning projects or at least get­ting them to stage where they can be safe­ly put on hold. For Saba, this meant sit­ting down with Hanne, Karel and Alper remote­ly to MoSCoW the list […]

Week 142

By Kars | Published: May 7, 2012

At the start of last week, I found myself work­ing on a nation­al hol­i­day. A fate not unfa­mil­iar to most busi­ness own­ers, I guess. That day, and the one fol­low­ing it, I was tweak­ing the Saba build we would be test­ing on Wednes­day. Myself and Alper have got­ten into a nice rhythm of remote col­lab­o­ra­tion. […]

Week 141

By Kars | Published: April 30, 2012

We’re try­ing to focus on a few projects late­ly. The idea is to have few­er things going on at the same time, so that each gets the atten­tion we feel it deserves. Last week this renewed focus payed off. We got a lot of work done on both Saba and Kani and I feel good […]

Week 140

By Kars | Published: April 20, 2012

Work on Saba con­tin­ued apace this week. We have one more week to go before the next playtest. So Hanne did some final adjust­ments on copy and Karel pro­duced the last bits of art need­ed for the final stages of the game. I’ve been spend­ing most of my time inte­grat­ing all of that in the […]

Week 139

By Kars | Published: April 14, 2012

We had a short work­week here because of East­er. So things only kicked off on Tues­day. Some things to report: Kani: Togeth­er with Hanne I attempt­ed to syn­the­size some of the major require­ments and we gen­er­at­ed some addi­tion­al game ideas on Tues­day. On Thurs­day, with Her­man, Tjerk-Jan and Hanne I worked on the pro­gram for […]
