So a couple of weeks ago I discussed the lack of vision I have with Gym Empire in terms of a road map. This has severely hindered my attempts to make any serious progress.
As promised I brainstormed a task list to cover as many of the steps I need to take to get me to the end or as close as possible. I’ve subsequently put that list in a loose sequential order to provide some structure to how I approach the small amount of dev time I am afforded. Granted the list will grow and develop as I move through it and learn more about the development.
So here is that list:
- Client happiness icon
- Client needs icon
- Client exercise needed icon
- Equipment use timer
- Character movement animations
- Character use equipment animations
- Equipment store
- Menu
- Price
- Stats
- Icon
- Equipment placement
- Equipment rotation
- Staff character
- Staff store
- Menu
- Salary
- Stats
- Icon
- Staff skill set icon
- Staff motivation icon
- Staff animation
- Staff training AI
- Title bar
- Money
- Time
- Speed
- Furniture and decoration store
- Furniture placement
- Decoration placement
- Land sizing
- Wall types
- Floor types
- Algorithm tweaking
- Money
- Happiness
- Reputation
- Exercise
- Music
- Sounds
- Exercise
- Outside scenery
As it stands I don’t have any time scales on the tasks but I will add those in as I gauge my progress. Also the order may seem odd in places but one of the priorities is to be able to get Gym Empire as presentable as soon possible so that has driven some of the choices.
