Development process suggestion

Hey,

At Kerbal space program they have a tradition where they each developer on the team gives a short 2 or 3 sentence summary of what they've been doing the last week to give the crowds a continuing idea about what's going on behind the scenes. Even if that's "Been on holiday!" I've always found that a very cool way of keeping the fans in the loop.

Maybe that'll work for SubNautica as well ;)

    This early in the game, where they're doing mostly coding, it will be hard for the populace to understand what they're talking about. I still like this idea though.

    How about doing all the coding from a bathtub? You know, to get in an aquatic mindset? :D

    Isn't that just Twitter though?

    I'd understand :) And I'd love to hear it.. :)

    It's totally up to the devs of course.

    I think this is a fine idea. I'll probably just do this on my twitter with #subnautica

    And I guess the past week for me has been...making our voxel terrain engine scale and look better

    I really miss the old live Q&A NS2 had back in the day, although I totally understand why it was cancelled (everyone asking the same dumb questions every week, etc.). Something like this lets you keep us up to date but talk about what you guys think is interesting, which is almost certainly going to be simpler and more compelling for the reader/viewer.
