Here is the new Nordenfelt dev log entry for this week.

Final Level Segment: Dam

I’m working on the last segment of level 1 at the moment. It’s a huge dam where turrets will align and gun boats will cruise. It’s current 3d model revision looks like this:

Preparing Nordenfelt Presales

I’ve set myself a goal:

Presales will start early in September!

Therefore I did some research and design work for the new landing page of www.nordenfelt-thegame.com. It’s quite a prickly affair because look and feel will have impact on sales. Aside this there is much more to do before presales can start …

Goal-Driven Schedule

I’ve updated the time schedule and made it goal-driven and the features more prunable. Up to now too many of them could hardly be omitted. Further the features themselves became more scalable. Imagine sub-features of features, recursive so to speak.

I think the presales start in September is the most interesting point in this list. Nordenfelt 0.4 is quite dated now (February 2011). Presales will start with the new version 0.5.

Stay tuned for further details about the presales via RSS feed or Twitter at @black_golem.

Cheers,
Thomas
