Trimming Down the Backlog

So yesterday, we got together again to talk about the Backlog that we worked on Tuesday during class. But this time, instead of adding more ideas to the backlog we started to talk about what were the essential parts inorder to have some sort of working model by the end of the semester. This means that a lot of the stuff in the backlog are not going to be worked on immediately and might not even make it to the final game.

In the mean time we've decided that some of the most essential things for the game are:

  • Menu screen
  • Control scheme
  • User interface (first person/third person) HUD
  • Player's ships
  • Enemy's ships
  • Load out screen
  • Save/Load game system
  • Pause system
  • Pods functionality
  • Space box
  • Planets/space content
  • Radar system
  • Combat system
  • Mission screen
  • Buy/Sell system or Ship upgrade system
  • AI system (enemies and allies)
We will try to focus on these things and try to have a Beta out by the end of the semester.

That's all. Thanks for reading.
