At Levels café again on Saturday I do a bit of roadmap planning and sketch out the next three releases. I start making stairs always be build jobs instead of a combination of mining and building. After a walk up Arthur Seat on Sunday morning I shelve the stairs work because I’m supposed to be just doing house-keeping and bug-fixes this week.
From Monday through Wednesday, in preparation for planning, I start writing a gameplay effect for every personality facet. There are 320 facets and I get about a fifth of the way through that, creating new tasks to support effects that are not currently possible. I intend to write these down and then review for feasibility and gameplay value.
From Athena’s feedback I am merging the Build, Stairs, Farm and Workshop tools under a single Build tool. I make mock-ups on Thursday (see pictures) and organise the Keyboard Options which naturally leads back into working on the Build Tool.

We did not do the retrospective and planning but Athena will be back for her last day next week to test the new Build Tool.
