Well well well, look who it is! That’s right… it’s you! You beautiful bastard! How are you? Oh! you want me to tell you about SoSa? Well why didn’t you say so! You may remember my last update was a little melodramatic, well don’t worry I feel much better this sprint, I have managed to

Sprint 15 – Wearing My Heart On My Sleeve
The funny thing about the startup world is that we only ever see the success stories, the plucky entrepreneurs that save the day by creating some world changing software, or that appear one day with an amazing, addictive game that everyone wants to play. It’s rare people talk about the failures, or struggles because it’s

Sprint 14 – Just James Things
So today is the last day of my fortnight off and It’s been an interesting two weeks. I’ve played a lot of games, saw some friends, did my full time job and started to exercise again. I figured i’d do a mix of an update and how i’ve spent my 2 weeks this update. Let’s

Alpha Release 1.0.5
This is a smaller release, I spent a lot of time refactoring and cleaning up the code to support some new features so not a huge amount of changes but still some! A lot of this was done during the previous sprint to make sure i had something to release this sprint. Character Restrictions Ok

Sprint 13 – I Need a Break
It’s not me, it’s you… just joking! OR AM I? At the start of the last sprint, I was starting to feel burnout on the horizon, so to keep momentum I did one big push the last two weeks and got two lots of “releases” ready, one for this update and one for the next.

Alpha Release 1.0.4
New Features Tagging Have you ever been in a chat room full of bots all creatively named and thought to yourself “How do I tag Bot10”? Well, if you’ve followed previous releases, you would know you could press their face. Or, even press them in the user list but sometimes – that’s a lot of

Alpha Release 1.0.3
Because releases are now getting bigger and more frequent, it’s getting a bit confusing having a single article that contains everything so it’s time to separate out the posts. This one will be for release changes and there will be a normal one for the other work i’ve done during the sprint! Bots ok… ...

Sprint 11 – Motion In The Ocean
Wow! What a sprint! Genuinely one of my most productive in the last few months, I’ve gotten so much done that I’m not at the point I feel I can start blogging a mix between what’s been released and what i’m working on. Before I get started with this week’s update, I wanted to do

Sprint 10 – Refinement
I have literally no idea where the last two weeks have gone. If it weren’t for Jira, I honestly wouldn’t know I’d achieved so much this sprint! Everything is blending into a single, really long, coffee fueled day and it’s weird. Stop it.

Sprint 9 – Now In Technicolor
Hello girls and boys! It’s me! yo friendly neighbourhood James! We’re going to do things a little differently this update. It felt a bit weird that everyone on the BETA were getting the updates a week after I share it everywhere else on Social media. So starting this week, beta’s come first! If you’re on
