And then stop! We don’t have so many friends… “What’s left” of the week! But hey, at least WE found it, and not YOU, that’s good, right? After we’re done with these fixes – we’re going to find a few more testers and repeat the whole process. It’s not complicated – just time consuming. Hey, one person even said “I want to play it again” ! We would call it a success!!Īnd now we need to fix all this… feedback. we played “Dude, Stop” from start to finish!…Except this time it wasn’t “we”, but “them” – we found playtesters and forced them (sometimes literally) to play the game for us! And after hours of giggles and “You do gonna pay me for this, right?” and “Where is your furniture?” questions, we finally gathered feedback and let them free!… And now we have 6 pages of “fix this” and “fix that” notes that we need to go through… WELL THANK YOU VERY MUCH! You just added more work!! GREAT! … Jokes aside: the feedback was positive, everything worked, some parts were fun, others require some polish. For example, stop reading this paragraph and skip to the next one. Break it, abuse it, skip the tutorial, ignore tips and tricks in the loading menu and - most importantly - mute the narrator. This is all for today! The next milestone is ironing out at least 90% of all bugs.We did it! Once again. 'Dude, Stop' is a puzzle game, where the main goal is to not follow the rules and make everybody hate you. This will both add seriousness to the “Dude, Stop”, and allow us to play with the mood of each pack, puzzles or menu screens. Here’s a gif showing how the “Dude, Stop” games flow will look like in the end:Īs you can see, we kept the “trophy shelf” feeling from the Demo version, but added more movement, colors and decorative art.

Now reporting a bug is just a mouse click away, and everyone sees them instantly, and in Unity! You can even play and create tickets on the go! This really speeds the whole process up. Luckily, the tracker had an API, so we made an editor that would communicate with it. We already used a bug tracker software, but it was in a browser, not in Unity, and that means that new ticket creation requires too many unnecessary clicks. When we found out, how many bugs we actually have, we realized that we need a special tool that would list all the stuff we need to fix. Here’s one example (you could recognize it from the “Dude, Stop” demo): That could mean completely redoing them or just changing the art and labeling as “new!”.

You can pick up blocks with nothing on top of them and set them down in front of you or on top of a one-unit obstacle in front of you. Your character can fall any height but can only climb up one unit. At that point, we at least should be able to play the game! That’s the exciting part! Polishing old puzzlesĪpart from making new puzzles, we wanted to remaster the old ones as well, adding more fun and choices to them. Developed by Detached Solutions Your goal is to get to the door on the map. We have to write a script for the story, add the voiceover and sounds to each puzzle, then scatter some trophies here and there. That’s why we’re going back to the drawing board – to fix them all! And to do a couple more things as well.īug fixing isn’t the only task we need to accomplish in “Dude, Stop”. But wait – there’s more! The art is outdated, there’s no fun in them, they don’t feel good – the list goes on.

but now that we look at them, many have bugs, a few work badly and some don’t work at all. We did it! We hit another milestone! We finished all the puzzles!.
