Good afternoon, and welcome to another blog installation of weekly update discussions.   In these articles, we at   Evolution Through the Ages   like to discuss the major advancements, both company and game features, that Sean and I have been working on during the previous week's timeframe.        Each Sunday morning, Sean and I get together to discuss tasks for the upcoming week. Additionally during these meetings, we sit down and tweak small components of the game in order to make a more biologically accurate or user-friendly gameplay interface. This week, Sean and I began by integrating a new biological feature into our game; the apoptosis feature.   Apoptosis Update      Apoptosis, or programmed-cellular death, is a mechanistic tool that cellular organisms are able to utilize.  Utilizing this feature, users are able to induce cellular "self-destruct"; where selected organisms will implode...

The points o...

So the time has come for  Evolution Through the Ages, LLC  to begin to develop some new additions to our T-shirt line.  Our original "Tree of Life" design, depicted above, was originally created in January 2018.  This was the first brand name t-shirt that was developed for the corporation.  Since that time, the aforementioned shirt has been photographed, filmed, and requested, several dozen times.  We have truly loved this shirt, especially as it has helped to establish our brand;  however, the time has come to create some additional brand name shirts.  We are proud to present the first additions to our new lines of shirts;  the "I Evolved This Way" career line and the "I Just Want to Survive" creature line.   "I Evolved This Way" Career Series Line:     The first two entries to the "I Evolved This Way" career line will be the fields of "Teacher" and "Biomedical Science".  Within this line, we began b...

       Sean and I met up today for our weekly meeting at the local Starbucks.   The topic of our meeting today was death and how this concept would continue to effect organisms within the game world we have created, Evolution Through the Ages .        We discussed how to incorporate the mass extinction events from the geologic time scales from planet Earth’s extensive 4.6 billion year old history.   Especially pertaining the concepts of extinction events triggered by over-competition, CO 2 / O 2 concentrations, and asteroid impacts.      Organisms will soon be able to effectively eliminate a global population of organisms within our game world.   This will occur through a process known as organismal over-competition for limited resources.   Due to a scarcity of resources within the game world, as is the case in the real world, organisms will inevitably result in competition between two di...

      Sean, Devin, and I met up at the MellowMushroom in Covington, Louisiana.  We ordered a 16'' Mellowterranean Pizza. -aside:  the pizza was delicious- This is the first time the three of us have been able to collectively come together to meet and discuss how our individual department goals are being met and to decide how to best proceed with the direction of the company.      We discussed the concept of restructuring our internships to be more of a work for hire concept; similar to that of a graphic designers pay scales.  Under this potential restructuring,  the people who are working on the smaller components of our game's code would be paid for completion of each task needed for further upgrading the game's software.    We are still in the talks of this restructuring; however, we are interested in reaching out to potential universities to recruit skilled computer science majors for their abilities.  We ...
