Providing A Place To Chat (Our new forum)

18th August 2017 – Joseph 

Hello all,

I’m Joseph. I’ll keep my intro brief, you can have a better one by visiting the new forum 🙂 I’m Nysko’s support programmer so a lot of behind the scenes work; I find and fix bugs, provide technical advice and look after infrastructure for Nysko. I mostly work on doing bug fixes and designed the Nysko games website.

They’ve let me loose on the blog to tell you about what I’ve been up to this week. That’s mostly getting our new Forum up and running. The forum gives people a place to talk and allows you to interact with us as we’re making the game.

A Few Struggles and a Few Changes

12th August 2017 – Perry Monschau

Working off our own backs, and with no income from this project has had its challenges over the last couple years. We have sadly lost our audio engineer who has decided to move on to bigger and better things. We would like to wish him all the best in his ventures and cannot thank him enough for all his help! We are however, happy to say that one of the other members of the Games Hub has offered to help us out, so that we can at least get the sound effects for the next alpha ready! I can honestly say that we would not have gotten this far without the amazing people at the Games Hub and we’re very thankful for that!

On another note, we’ve had some feedback regarding our blogs and have decided to make some changes to our blogging style. Rather than writing blogs together as we have been, each team member will blog on a weekly rotor by themselves, to talk about what they, in particular, have been up to. We want to do a better job of showing you guys who we are and what we’re doing each week.
