Recurring Dev Livestreams
Last week's stream went so well that I think I'm going to make this a regular thing. Stop by on Fridays to watch the next update of CoA being prepared right before it goes live!
As of right now, there's no set schedule for exactly what time I'll be live (or times, in the event I have to take a break for family reasons). However, VODs stay live on the twitch channel for 14 days and will later be added to the CoA YouTube channel for those of you who missed out.
What goes on during the dev stream?
- This is where most of the next content update will be prepared which takes place in more than just the game engine. You'll get a look at some of my back end mechanical designs which are held in various text and excel documents in addition to how I place and test things in the engine itself.
Questions, Suggestions & Bug Reports
- These streams will be an excellent place to ask questions you have about the game such as functionality and mechanics or even about the lore of the characters and planet they inhabit. This will also be the absolute best place to alert me about a bug, as I will be able to take care of it immediately.
What I can't show...
- Sadly, there's part of the process that is covered by NDA with Steam, so I can not show anything having to do with the upload and distribution process. However, all things that go into making and exporting the game itself can be shown.
Where to catch the show
- I'm live every day doing the streaming thing, but part of every Friday from now into the foreseeable future will be reserved for CoA development.
https://www.twitch.tv/hardytier is my personal twitch where the live streams will take place.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxc2-7sJbZ9L3Lpgak43XA is the CoA YouTube channel where VODs of the development streams will end up after they have concluded.
-- Please note that due to the affiliate agreement with Twitch, these VODs will not make their way to YouTube until after 24 hours past the time in which they ended.
The Reward
- I'm in the process of preparing a reward for 100k channel points involving CoA, the finer details of which are TBA. What I can tell right now is: it will have to do with an entire new character, piece of gear, or zone added to the game based on YOUR description.... within reason. Things of a profane or otherwise too meme-y nature will be rejected and your points refunded to try again.
