The Final Push: Feature Complete and Ready for Polish
This past weekend was the most challenging and rewarding of the entire hackathon. After implementing our core game loop, we were hit with a series of critical, show-stopping bugs, including a frustrating issue where user scores were not persisting between sessions. I'm thrilled to report that after a marathon debugging sprint, we have successfully resolved these issues.
Major Bugs Squashed
- Point Persistence Fixed: We located and fixed the bug in our logout flow that was incorrectly resetting user scores, ensuring that player progression is now stable and reliable.
- Permissions Flow Hardened: We've implemented a robust permission check for the camera and microphone, which now gracefully handles cases where a user denies access, preventing crashes and improving the user experience.
Feature Complete!
With these fixes, the final piece of our core functionality—token spending for in-game hints—is now fully implemented and tested. The app is officially feature-complete and the end-to-end monetization loop is working as designed. This is a huge milestone and a critical step for our HAMM (Help Apps Make Money) Award submission.
The Roadmap to the Finish Line
With the core application stable, our focus for the final 48 hours is clear:
- Final UI Polish: A dedicated sprint to smooth out animations, clean up any remaining UI inconsistencies, and implement the monthly token stipend for subscribers.
- Video Production: Recording and editing the final 3-minute demo video.
- Submission: Assembling all materials and shipping the final product.
The foundation is solid. Now, it's all about making it shine for the judges.
