If the story about the bucket of USBs is true, these are the most indie devs of all time.
Details?
They didn't know how to conduct version saves or backups, of version management of any kind, so at the end of every day of work they'd save the entire game on a new USB, write the date down and add it to the pile.
Supposedly they went through hundreds.
I just can't fathom not having a NAS in RAID 1 for backups, it's just insane and common knowledge? Not even using a cloud service at all? Anything would be cheaper and safer than using flash drives.
Yeah, like I said. The indiest of indies.
I thought that was weird too, and assumed they either embellished or lost in translation. I'm assuming it's the project files minus content that isn't already backed up elsewhere. Just in case so they can always go back to a previous working version if they fucked things up bigly and no cloud for security and privacy reasons?
You can't churn out a game like this if you're so stupid that you're backing up the same in game assets nightly. I refuse to believe it.
