Writing a retrospective
« on: March 07, 2014, 01:32:15 PM »
I had an idea to write a retrospective from Kaduria, years 1996-2004 or the phase 1 as I call it. I really don't recommend it to anyone. Not only I spent three hours writing it, but after that I had some kind of recall where I was thinking who I am, and after that I've been depressed remembering the things I could have done other way. Mainly in context of getting sex.

How depressing.  The only kind of retrospective I want to read, is a developer's journal.

December 12th, 2010
... Lots of detail about thoughts on game design ..
December 13th, 2010
... etc

It's not all depressing. Anyway I realized I can't write even the first part before the game itself is ready.

It's fine I guess. The big change in my working has been that I can now define problems easier than before and also the order in which features are done is better which I hope means less rewriting and more stable code.
