DOGVELOPMENT LOG #15: I BROKE SOME STUFF

So, you might have noticed that the link to download Pre-Alpha Build 7 is now broken. This is because I was so confident that I would have Pre-Alpha Build 8 finished by the end of today, that I cleared the Google Drive space in advance.

That was a horrible mistake.

See, I thought I found a way to build the physical layout of an airport across 2-3 full-time days. Above, you can see that progress in our new airport, the Marinara Trench.

The environment is made. All the systemic pieces are in place. We've locked down a layout, and color scheme, and stores. Slap some navigation signs down there, get a dog into the information kiosk, and call it a day, right?

Not really.

See, this airport uses a tram system.

TWO TERMINALS, BABY.

We've got a giant expansion of practical player space, which means my calculations were incorrect. I don't make an airport in two days - I make a terminal in two days. The addition of a second terminal doubles that work... and this airport was planned to have three!

Over the rest of the week, I'm going to reconfigure the original plan for the airport so that remaining gates and navigational aids (i.e. signs so that you know where you're going) are spread across these two terminals. The third terminal is now a likely future expansion, where we can hide secrets a bunch of additional shopping space. This should help us hit a balance of quality and quantity, and get a new version of the game in your hands as soon as possible.

So - thank you for your patience and continued support! I'll have details about game changes in the next update, but it's safe to say that it's likely going to be Dog Airport Game's largest expansion yet.
