Sound Production

    To spice up solo development, I've steered towards adding some sounds and music into AIA. This allows for skill diversification, a change of pace/workload, and the ability to give the game some life. It can get boring and tedious listening to your own music (especially if it's poorly made) or to not hear any sounds at all when testing, thus, taking this avenue conquers many different issues/concerns at the same time.

UI Implementation

    Over the last two months the UI has been completely changed from an arcade-like style to a more digital/clean look. This can be seen later via the Feedback UI but more will be shown in due time. Finding a proper theme for the UI took longer than expected. It never felt right until a balance was found that brought about the order of what intelligence agencies have and the the digital feel of the era. The game takes place in 2054 where the world has been ravaged by the nature of humans. With destruction at every turn, some civilizations have been able to rebuild their country anew.

About

    Development on AIA began early in 2021 with the desire to figure out a good baseline regarding art, the core theme and setting, game mechanics, and more. While art is arguably the most pivotal part, the decision to use pixel-art has come to a close. Through countless hours of research, months of design, and dozens of creations, I've come to a conclusion that pixel-art brings together the best market, skill set, and aesthetics to AIA.

Subject: Open World Weather

About

    Open World Weather is a small project that utilizes the Open Weather Map, which provides world-wide weather data, to gather, display, and analyze weather data from different regions in the world. By using PyOWN, a Python wrapper library for OpenWeatherMap web APIs, we can tap into this data. Currently the app works on weather data in Rolla, MO but future work will include an easy-to-use interface to display data on many different areas around the world.
