General Tips on the Process of Solo Game Development


  1. Idea
  2. Prototype
  3. Iteration
  4. Playtest
  5. Finish

see gamedev link :

Idea

  • Prototyping is still essential
  • Set a well-defined goal and constraints
  • Give it some time
  • Find the core element that makes the idea shine
  • You will die, so make it count!

Prototype

  • Be open to failure
  • Do it as quickly as possible, and make the code as convenient as possible
  • Use the tools you already know
  • Have a well-defined question to answer

Iteration

  • Make high-quality code
  • Go from most important elements to least important
  • Experiment, but don't lose vision of the core element
  • KISS/life optimize/NO premature optimization
  • Add reusable code to your game library
  • Only add features to your game library that make development faster or add capabilities (do not code something for speed unless you need it)
  • Do not abandon/give up on a project at this point!

Playtesting

  • Playtest early, playtest often
  • Diversify your playtester demographics
  • Swap out overused playtesters
  • Ask questions

Finish

  • Push through it
  • Test, test, test!
  • Make it easy to start playing
  • Add polish
  • Release it and learn from your mistakes

長灘島旅行 行前裝備 Double Check
1自備慣用藥品或外用藥膏(蚊蟲藥膏...)，盡量避免攜帶粉狀散裝藥物，以免被誤認為毒品。
2輕便夏裝、泳裝及水上活動裝備。帶一件外套，以備夜間或冷氣較強的地方穿著。(馬尼拉機場的冷氣可媲美冷凍櫃喔!:p)
3穿著輕便樸實，不戴昂貴首飾，鞋子要防滑好走，新鞋咬腳不適沙灘行走，島上最夯的是人字拖哟！
4準備一份旅遊地點的駐外辦事處通訊資料
5攜帶數張簽證照片備用，將機票、護照、簽證、結匯收據、簽帳卡等證件影印乙份，和正本分開攜帶。
6建議自行攜帶個人慣用之牙膏牙刷及沐浴用品。
7自備一支小手電筒，夜行或臨時停電時備用。
8若您有在海上攝影的需求。建議您準備相機防水設備。(3C產品不建議以原包裝攜帶，以您的相機包或是防震包裝箱或隨身攜帶為宜。)
9白雪公主請帶防曬。巧克力美人請帶助曬及曬後鎮靜用品。
10航空公司飛馬尼拉的國際航線因機型較大，可提供15公斤的check in 行李，但馬尼拉飛菲律賓各島嶼(包括長灘島)多數為小型班機，菲律賓國內航線一般check in 行李限重皆為10公斤。再次提醒您！
11最後最重要的~記得帶著度假的心哟!

[Lycris] Stay(I Missed You) - Lisa Loeb


Stay(I Missed You) - Lisa Loeb

You say I only hear what I want to.
You say I talk so all the time so.

And I thought what I felt was simple,
and I thought that I don't belong,
and now that I am leaving,
now I know that I did something wrong 'cause I missed you.
Yeah, I missed you.

And you say I only hear what I want to:
I don't listen hard,
I don't pay attention to the distance that you're running
or to anyone, anywhere,
I don't understand if you really care,
I'm only hearing negative: no, no, no.

So I turned the radio on, I turned the radio up,
and this woman was singing my song:
the lover's in love, and the other's run away,
the lover is crying 'cause the other won't stay.

Some of us hover when we weep for the other who was
dying since the day they were born.
Well, this is not that:
I think that I'm throwing, but I'm thrown.

And I thought I'd live forever, but now I'm not so sure.

You try to tell me that I'm clever,
but that won't take me anyhow, or anywhere with you.

You said that I was naive,
and I thought that I was strong.
I thought, 'hey, I can leave, I can leave.'
But now I know that I was wrong, 'cause I missed you.

You said you caught me 'cause you want me and one day I'll let you go.
You try to give away a keeper, or keep me 'cause you know you're just so scared to lose.
And you say, 'Stay.'

And you say I only hear what I want to.

Your Goal to Work

40歲了！不走升遷的階梯，你會更快樂
台大教授：最難的一課，我們卻沒教給學生


非經濟的價值包括使命感、榮譽、品牌、夥伴、溝通、對育兒的好處、和家人相處的時間，以及對社會的貢獻等價值...

I can't agree with that any more. I hate myself sought for the salary and power before. What I really want I realize now is the strong sense of responsibility, honor, to build up my own brand name, partners, communication, education for the next generation, the time getting along with my family, the value I contribute to the society, etc.

I think that's who I am and what I wanna do.
