Sara is the Community Manager at Junebud. She also works with Quality Assurance (QA) and social media. She's got a bachelor's degree in game design, but likes the social part a bit more than tweaking numbers. She usually spends her time moderating the forum, testing the game and planning new events. First of all I would like to say hello to all newcomers!
It´s been a steady flow of new players signing up to play MilMo this last month. That´s great! We hope you will enjoy the MilMo Universe that we're working so hard to build. Speaking of that, we now have over 2000 people on Facebook who like us. Keep inviting your friends, MilMo is even more fun when you play together.
If you have visited the forum, you may have noticed that Esteban was the skillful winner of our art competition (theme: "dragons"). To see the awesome artwork follow this link.The 1st prize was 2000 fresh June Coins.
Right now things are moving fast here at the office and we want to bring you the new build as soon as possible. We are working on some exciting concepts, which will pretty much be the next chapter for MilMo. As you might have noticed we're using iterative development. That means we are constantly adding new levels, islands, features and creatures, and improving on what's already in the game.
Plenty of game studios back in the good old days used to make the whole game and then, when deadline came, put it out on the market for their players. That is not our cup of tea. We use live development to make MilMo a better game by listening to the feedback from you, and then expanding the game based on that feedback.
Time to start planning the next forum event! See ya online!
Cheers,
Sara, Your Community Ninja!
Hey Sara,
ReplyDeleteNice blog :P.
This really describes the Milmo-feeling ;).
I'm excited to see what more is to come, I hope you will implement some of our new ideas (like new islands and things like that) in the game ;). Also I'm happy to see that quite a lot of our suggestions have actually been implemented in the game :D! I would even like to say, that Milmo is the only game to use live development! (I really think so). This is also what keeps Milmo excited, you might over time get bored with it, but that isn't for long! Milmo gets updated quite frequently and really new things don't take that long to arrive to the game. Also besides the game itself the Forum is also lots of fun and is what has made my love for Milmo grew ;)!

Hey Sara this is "Esteban" in the Milmo game and forums. I love the look of this game and can't wait to see more of the development process! Adding this to my RSS
ReplyDeleteHi guys,
ReplyDeleteNice to see you found your way to our new blog! It´s still work in progress so I hope you have some patience until it will be the best blog in the world...! Cool to have a face associated with you, Esteban. And Gielo, keep up the great feedback!
Yours,
Sara

ReplyDeleteHello!
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely going to be looking forward to this blog, it will be interesting to see how you guys make MilMo. Maybe one day you could film everyone at the Junebud offices, and maybe give a peak on how MilMo is made! I agree with you that the live-development is much better than when you buy the game and you only get large content updates every 2-3 years. I really think that within 6 or so months, MilMo will have 100,000+ people playing. I mean why play FarmVille, when you can play a live-action 3D multiplayer game, on Facebook!

Hi Drew, cool you stopped by and said hi! As you might have noticed we now have a new post to share with you. This time it´s about inspiration and creativity, written by Ola Holmdahl, the CEO at Junebud. Hope you like it!
ReplyDeleteSara, you're very pretty! :D I'll try to keep up with the blog and it's posts!
ReplyDeleteHey Sara,
ReplyDeleteIt's cool to see a face to associate with ;).
I don't have anything vital to add right now, a very clear promising blog I'd say ;).
Hope to see more soon,
