So it's been pointed out to me that instead of making big updates once in a century I could do very small updates but more frequently and just let you guys know what I am working on on this particular day. Well, here we go. I am working on the store today. Adding books and items and making sure everything works the way it supposed to. The downside of such updates is that I will be probably doing the same thing tomorrow and the day after because all this is VERY time consuming. And there is a possibility that my next update could be identical to this one. Well, that's that.

Well, it's not like you have to make an update everyday ^^ having news from you is cool, but if you have nothing to say or to show, we won't force you :)

While frequent updates are appreciated, like I've said before, just do what you are comfortable and willing to post. No need to stress yourself out. Even a simple "I'm still working on it." post will do wonders. :)

Same as everione else, just a walking video or similar "hey I am alive" once every week or two weeks is enough, we feel the love ^^

Seems like a good thing to do, but like another person said we don't need a report literally every day. Perhaps every time you start working on something new you should post one.

Well, now i can't wait to read "the game of armchairs"! =P

The crux of game development - or software development in general - sometimes you're apperantly working at 'the same thing' for a week just to be sure to have a case for every possibillity.

Very nice of you to do that kind of update thing. I say if you are on the same particular task as the day before, don't bother telling us. We are not your abusive girlfriend that need to know how you spend every second of your time. Just keep us updated on whenever you move onto a new part of your project or you have something you'd like to share. We want you to stick around for a long time so don't get a sour taste in your mouth from having to keep us updated as soon as you take a crap. Sorry 'bout all those tl;dr posts xD

I agree with most of the sentiment in the replies. Once a week updates or walking videos was more then fine. I'm afraid you will get burned out quickly on the to frequent updates.

Exactly. One status update a week is more than enough. Anything more would be a waste of your valuable time.

Thanks for the update, much appreciated. I would agree with what others have said, once a day reports may be too time consuming and may lead to burnout. Only you know what you like to do though, if you enjoy telling us what is going on, then I am sure no one will mind. "Well, here we go. I am working on the store today. Adding books and items and making sure everything works the way it supposed to." This is all I was referring to in the prior post. Instead of just saying, "Got things done," while this is still vague, we can more specific information into how things are shaping up without spoiling anything. So, if you did a once a week post, you would just say, "worked on the shop this week, added tons of items to play with..." or something (if that makes sense). Anyways, keep up the good work, appreciate your willingness to read feedback from your fans!

I join the other on thé everyday update would be too much, but once a week is maybe a bit not enough, I personally think that two little updates a week or just telling us you are well alive and working would be a good compromise between giving us updates more often and not really force you to say us anything if you don't have much interesting bits to saisfy or curiosity and not consume too much of your time. For a next little update à walking video would be nice if you have time ;)

Yeah... That what I would normally do. Unless I have to work on the same thing for a long period of time.

The only way ultimately profits the most is if you handle the development in a way you feel most comfortable with. I think the best thing would be a weekly update? You don't have to be technical or anything. Or even provide visual updates ( though sometimes would be cool ) Basically, consider making updates where you basically give at least a very vague summary of what you've been up to game-development wise once a week or once every 10 days, or something else. Gives people something to look forward to and will hopefully not make it feel to grindy for you if you feel you HAVE to make an update everday. In the end it comes down to what works best for you but a weekly or something update would probably be a good balance. You don't even have to make the updates a big deal I think a very brief "I did this and that and worked on this" once a week or something would sate most of us I think.

Am I the only one who thinks of the upcoming "Whores of Westeros Trainer"? +_+

So that's exactly what you expected to see, right? Good. Will try to stick to this.

akabur

Got it. All of you guys seem to have more or less similar view on this. And I completely agree with what you are saying.

A game of armchairs... Hm. What would that be a parody of? ;)
