Performance Issue Resolved

John — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 18:16:59 +0000

The issue causing the lag in Strike Force Trio has been identified. Developers are now in the process of fixing the problem, so that Strike Force Trio can be resubmitted for distribution.

This fix should hopefully allow us to re-enable the touch-control feature on the iPhone that had to be removed due to complaints.

Thank you,

Time Mismanagement

John — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 17:10:25 +0000

In my brief time as the CEO of a small game studio, I have learned one thing better than anything else. Time is the most valuable resource and the most difficult to manage. My team and I never really suffered from lack of development funds, creative ideas, work ethic, or ambition. It always came down to time in one way or another.

First wasted (or just lost) time wastes money worse than anything else. For every day we delayed chasing bugs in Strike Force Trio that was a day of missed opportunity. We can make sales the next day, but the sales from the current day are forever lost. Secondly, every second over schedule takes away from a needed second somewhere else down the pipeline or even from the next game. It also causes teams or departments to become out of sync when one of them falls behind.

Sometimes time is just a source of resource contention. Currently we have so many potential projects that our only issue is how best to manage our time. Making the best choice is key to making the best profit.

Thats my two cents,

Strike Force Trio: Resubmission

admin — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 04:58:12 +0000

We pulled the original submission of “Strike Force Trio” before getting an acceptance or rejection from Apple. After days of hair pulling and teeth gnashing the game has been successfully optimized to the point where it plays well on the iPhone (it already played well on the iPod Touch).

We don’t know for certain if we go back to begining of the line for Apple’s Review process, but we probably do. This is time none of us at Villainous really have, but we all thought it was important to put our best foot forward with this game. When it is approved we hope you enjoy the experience on the iPhone as well as the iPod Touch.
