Demo Update v0.1.1 and Future Plans (Patreon)
Content
New to the Patreon? All patrons can check out the demo at backloggery.club. The demo's data is not connected to the current site and will not carry over to the public release. You can see current plans and known issues at our Trello.
Now that the demo has been out for a few days, it's time to touch base on where we go from here.
The general feedback seems to be: "this is very cool and also very buggy." Which is about what I expected.
With the demo I really just wanted to get something usable out the door. Having that lets me post smaller, more frequent updates that are more meaningful to you because you can interact with them. It also enables you to give feedback that is more accurate and useful to me.
So the plan going forward is to push out a small demo update roughly every week or two with bug fixes, tweaks, and/or new features. We'll be focusing mostly on bug fixes at first. It needs it!
Demo Update v0.1.1
Tweaks
- Switched to 3 digit version numbering system to better reflect the state of the demo. The right digit is updated when small tweaks/bug fixes are made. The middle digit denotes a new feature addition. The left digit is reserved for final release candidates.
- When adding/editing games, the text of the "Show Unused" button is now "More Options".
- The "Priorities" quick filter shortcut (under Backlog Breakdown) now only shows Paused and High priority games (aka the highest priority games which aren't on the now playing list)
Bug Fixes
- Backlog Roulette now displays properly (scratch that, fixed in dev, build cases bug in production)
- The +Game page now blocks adding games if no platforms are associated with the user's account
- Wishlist games are now filtered out of the library view unless specifically filtered for by user
- Wishlisted games should no longer be counted in the Backlog Breakdown stats
- Shelved games which are Unplayed/Unfinished are now properly removed from the Active Backlog stats
