Cloud Backup - Perhaps the most important "update" this project can have (Patreon)
Content
What's up, guys!
You may have already noticed that the preservation of all the work that has been done so far has been a recent concern of ours.
In the last post, we debuted a SubscribeStar page to act as a backup for our Patreon page.
Now, we decided to dedicate ourselves to preserving all the work that has been done so far.
The files related to this project have always been preserved in local backups, but we know that something unforeseen can always happen that is beyond our control, such as HDs failing, our computers crashing, etc, which would lead to the loss of the files.
Because of this, we decided to hire a cloud backup service and save all these files there, so if everything goes wrong, we still have somewhere to turn to recover our files.
We want to ensure that everything will work out until the end of the project and that we'll be able to deliver this game as a complete game in the future, so this was the right thing to do.
There are approximately 700 GB of files that we need to send to the cloud right now, including all versions of the project, the assets, backups of the renders and animations that we already have done, files used on the websites and project pages, among other things.
We've currently uploaded most of this, about 60%, but we're still working to complete the backup.
As soon as we finish this backup, we'll return to normal schedule, and we'll work on developing the next animations, bringing you news as soon as possible here.
We know that all the public wants to see are new renders and animations, as this gives a taste of what to expect in the next version, but cloud backup was something we really needed to do sooner or later, and we decided to do it now.
For today, we just came to give you an update on what's going on in our development work.
We hope to bring you news soon.
Cheers! 🍻
