Production timeline

Project milestones

The way I will manage this project will be to use a combination of agile and waterfall development processes. I will use the waterfall milestones for setting out what will be required to be delivered at certain development stages. I will use agile and scrum methodology to help me manage what I am doing in between these milestones.

Milestone 1 – design

By the 1^st December I intent to have the design finalized as well as a fully iterated grey box of the level ready for review. This will consist of one sprint.

Milestone 2 – Technical development

By the 25^th January I am intending to code the grey box fully and have the mvp version of this game ready for review. This will consist of two sprints. 

Milestone 3 - art asset development and integration

 By the 11^th March I intent to have refined my already grey boxed art assets and to implemented new ones with the code. This will consist of two sprints. 

Milestone 4 – testing and refinement

I will use this time to fully test and polish my game. This includes the creation of menus and sounds. This will be done by the 19^th April. This will consist of one sprint.

26^th April – 17^th May contingency time

I will keep this time as contingency in case any issues arise during the production process. I will also use it as extra testing time to ensure my game is market appropriate.
