Sprint 007 plan (Patreon)

This is my plan for the next two weeks.

Crab thoughtsIn both of the previous two sprints, I seriously overestimated what I could deliver.

In this sprint, I wanted to set the target as "finish the remaining writing, and integrate the scene into the game."  That would be so great: we could release the Analyst version on Valentine's Day.

However: I don't think I can get that done in the time available.  What I think I can get done is the first part, finishing all the writing.  Integration into the scene will have to happen in the next sprint.

That means that – if all goes to plan – in two weeks, there'll be another test scene release to Operators+.  At the end of Feb we'll release a working version of the scene for Analysts+ to play.  (That version will be released to everybody else in mid-March.)

I hope that's okay.  It's two weeks slower than what I wanted to announce, but although I can't promise never to be wrong about my time estimates I do promise never to bullshit you about my time estimates.
