So, ever since Starton development began, my strategy was to complete all room backgrounds. Then all walls/doors. Then music. But that's really starting to get draining doing the same thing day in, day out. It'd be a lot more refreshing (and actually feel like I'm making progress) if I did SCRIPTING first and foremost, and completed assets as needed for those scripts. Hopefully this change in approach will make me less bored every day, I've noticed that instead of working 16 hours a day, I'm only working 6 because I'm getting tired out by doing the same thing over and over again with no change. Back in outlands I was always so motivated because every day, I was doing something new, something fresh. So I have a good feeling about going back to this way of devving!
I decided to lump Hub/Core into next release! Reason is, Aerialis is acctually going to be a bit small, releasing it would be like releasing Starton with no town area.
