addedLadies and gentlemen, we are on track for our September 18th launch!Next Friday, you'll be kicking back at your desk with a cold beverage and some snacks, ready to blaze the trail of the afterlife on a fresh install of XING for the weekend. That is, if you haven't already unraveled the mysteries of XING during the week! This past week has been super crazy for us, as anyone who has worked on a game before would guess. I've been going between fixing bugs (the list seems to disappear then completely fill up on a whim!), managing the soundtrack for upload, messing around with distribution settings and assets, and working with Kori on marketing and outreach. We are going to have a fun day this Sunday pulling our hair out trying to figure out what we might have forgotten. : P Yesterday we just added 25 most excellent achievements to XING for you all to discover and unlock. I must say, there is a certain satisfaction in being the master of the achievements, for once. I have many memories of slaving over achievements in Steam games over the years, especially in TF2 back when unlocking achievements actually netted you in game items. Don't worry, grabbing achievements won't actually affect your gameplay in XING, but the actual events leading up to some of them should be pretty entertaining in themselves. Besides, you get those sweet icons that show up on your profile as a demonstration of all your honor and valor in the afterlife. This being our first game and given our limited resources, I'm expecting to go on full time for the next several weeks performing support duties and of course responding to any and every message we might get. Alright, that's it! Let's blast this thing off right! It's 5:30 AM after a long night of bug-fixing, and after some rest I'll be at it again. Good-morning, world. XING is coming.
