This week was fairly slow for writing and design, primarily because the primary focus is currently on the programmers to get our first functional build ready for our upcoming project review. So, while the majority of the team was working on that, I organized a design meeting to establish exactly how our inventory system would function. There was some debate, but we did agree that we wanted to keep visuals simple. So in the end, we expanded the debate to discuss our entire UI. What we settled on was a basic hotbar system using a disk in the lower left hand corner. You would be able to see a selection of items in your inventory, and rotate the wheel to see other item categories. Directly above this our form of "Mana" bar would be present. Indicating how much energy you have left. After this meeting a UI team was established to continue work on this.
Following this, I continued refining characters. Taking some time to refine writing in some areas, and clarify ideas in others. There is unfortunately not much else to share here, but I have also started work on a personal project. A blog for this will be up soon.
