Idle Exotics Development Roadmap
I don't think many people are watching this project, but in the spirit of keeping on task, I want to keep a development roadmap. That way I can keep track of what I have planned, and update the list as I finish stuff or discover new issues.
I'll separate the list into Rolling Updates, Beta Updates, and TBD Updates. Rolling Updates are things that I'll add to the alpha as I complete them - these should be more small quality of life improvements, probably not a lot of major features. Beta Updates will generally be larger in scale, and I'll hold onto those until the Beta release. TBD Updates are things that I know need to be done, but I don't have any time in particular planned out for adding them. Maybe as development continues, I'll add them to one category or another, but as of now, I'm not 100% sure what the priority is.
I've now decided to just have tasks separated into code and art tasks, and I'll just arrange them in the general order of priority. The whole structure of the alpha -> beta version just feels off, especially since I'm trying to get things code-complete ASAP.
Besides, a beta version is supposed to mean the game is almost done, right?
Code Tasks Remaining:
- Prestige system
- All species implemented
- Finalize Achievements ordering
- Title Screen
- Save/Load Functionality
- Background Selector
- Time Skips
- Text size options in the Options Menu
- Displaying Morph Names on Morph Discovery
- Egg Queue display
Art Updates:
- Species-specific upgrade icons
- Achievement Icons
- Existing Exotics Sprites Touch-ups
- Title Screen assets
- Sprites for new species
- Logo Design
- Backgrounds
Additionally, I'll add a "known issues" section below. This will hopefully let people know what's on my radar, and going to be fixed at some point. A lot of these might just be mobile issues, which I can only test with the game is deployed. Since it's being run through the web browser, I think exporting it to an APK to test on android won't have the desired effect. So the only way I really know for sure if something works on mobile is to deploy it and see what happens.
Known issues:
- Achievement page doesn't scroll (mobile only)
- Stats showing over Achievements Page (Fixed for next version)
