WAM : “Sports Collection” for Nintendo DS Launched in US & EMEA

March 3rd, 2011 No comments

It’s been quite sometime that the game’s been launched, my post has been pending in.

Glad that the second DS exclusive game and a new IP for Ubisoft Pune has been released now. A game that the team can really be proud off because at many stages of production, the team had lost hopes of moving further and then one day there was a solution to move on. A mighty challenge. Since the game is now shipped, thanks to the mighty engineering team for their dedication on various fronts, the software is released. Of course not forgeting the content creators (designers and artists). It’s been a lot of brain storming sessions of what is best for a set of target audience that is not Indian and its been rough and tough time for the teams. Eventually, all have performed really well, awesome dedicated and committed.

Well, how are the sales, not something that I can tell on a public blog, but I can say that it’s not bad. Sales are just as expected it to be.

How does it make me happy, well I was not programming, I was not designing, I was not doing art, then how? Working with a core team on a build from the scratch content on  a new IP, helping with small inputs in every department (don’t know whether I made sense to them or was I a complete nut :P ) and then finally finishing it off with production control, making it shippable, this is the part that makes me happy. Thanks to my team for making your dream come true as well as making me happy for my dream too.

Every production teaches you something that you wouldn’t forget, this production has taught me a lot new things to forecast before you mess up. And this team again assures me that they are reliable and they are getting better day by day. Well I assure to you that I will also get better day by day to make sure that this relation goes for a long time by not making the same mistakes again, but new ones :P .

WAM : Post Marriage

January 30th, 2011 No comments

WOW, the time period between the engagement and marriage was kind of really messy and busy with office and home AND you are not alone now so :D . It’s been a rushy time and eventually when you see that everything happened according to plan, it’s well and good. You really feel that its worth all the effort :) . Thanks to both my parents (mine as well as Roma’s), their effort to get marriage in the best way possible for them, really appreciated.

Of course I was shocked to see that, Roma was not the Roma I knew at the wedding. She was looking entirely different and gorgeous too :) .

I guess its time that I get back to normal life. After 6th Jan 2011, it was actually a nightmare in only travelling and eating. MAN, me and Roma were like, we don’t want any food for the next 6 months atleast. But that’s how it is, that’s how relatives greet the new member of the family and that’s our culture, says all my seniors in the family.

Now that we are back in pune, with our jobs and in our nest, we have a lot of setting up to do. Its not as easy as a single sentence but we know its gonna be a lot of fun.

Thanks to all my friends and family member for your best wishes and prayers.
And for making this occasion a fest!

Cheers to a new start, a new chapter!

WAM : Post Engagement

July 7th, 2010 No comments

Getting back to work after a physically stressed out function was really tough, especially when you have the maximum amount of work at office. Well it took me a month to finish of the official works and now get back to my habit of posting blogs. It feels good when you put down your findings and feelings somewhere and I was really missing it!

Well, just sharing a function’s highlights in the form of a small photo album, the function was (unexplainable), it was AWESOME!

CHEERS.
