Indefinite Hiatus
Here it is guys. We're now going on an indefinite hiatus. I will not list down any changes that I may change here on this update, but I will do so on our Discord server. Also, I think I just finished cleaning some forum inquiries? If in case I've missed something, just let me know!
I won't make this update long since there are things regarding the hiatus that has been discussed on Discord, but allow me to make a to-do list so everyone will have an idea about the changes and what needs to be done!
Lists marked with an asterisk (*) are discussed on our Discord server.
Frontend lists:- Currency change * - from 5 lollipops to 1
- Power Boosters * - will be discontinued but the abilities will be switched to either coupons or skills
- Photostock Merchandise * - Postcards and magazines will be discontinued, leaving only posters, wallscrolls and CDs
- Card template * - will be changed from horizontal to vertical, will post a preview
- While the card template is being changed, are you guys okay if we focus on individual decks? This means, puzzle decks will no longer be available. If not, please let me know your suggestions on how we're going to do it with vertically long cards.
- Forum cleanup - will try to reinstall a new forum with significant posts still intact.
- Games reconstruction * - instead of removing specific games (e.g. trade pot and inventory to have bigger piles, etc.)
- Sadly, we'll have to discontinue the Monthly Bingo. I'll try to think of something as a replacement.
- New database tables - this is to ensure that the possible scripts and cron would work
- Games construction - change script setup (includes one-time play block, logs insertion, etc.)
- Weekly Updates - will be switched back to weekly update with automatic releases, wishes, etc.
- Services - cutting back some services and all should be done on-site
- Shopping cart and shoppe - will finish up the coding part using only one currency
- TCG management reconstruction - will have to change the set up to reflect the new database tables
This is not the full list though, but I will add what I have missed along the process. The #our-thoughts channel and the comments section will still be open for your suggestions and inquiries. Don't hesitate to let me know them so I can add them while making the changes (you can DM me directly if you're shy, hahaha). So umm... this is literally a day late now and I'm a bit running out of time (family gathering in a bit)—I think I'll have to bring a notepad with me so I can jot down whatever pops in my head later on LOL.
Anyway, that's it for now! I do hope to see everyone again once we're back. I'm sorry that I'll have to cease the activities of this TCG, I just feel like I need full-time concentration on this without the worries of weekly freebies and stuff. I'd like to thank everyone for the patience through the TCG's ups and downs and I'd like to apologize if I'm not a good owner. This is my first time running a TCG, so I'm really sorry for the mistakes, stupid decisions, and probably incompetency.
By the way, I'll have to wait until Shizen is fully open before I start with the backend! I'll have to see the setup I've made in action so I won't be troubleshooting/debugging two TCGs at the same time. It'll be easier for me to work on Gleam if Shizen's coding is fully stable. Again, thanks a bunch everyone for all the support and love! This is definitely not good-bye for Gleam, and it gave me a good experience plus I've met good friends and awesome people. Love y'all minna-san~! — Aki ヾ(´▽｀;)ã‚
