|
|
|
- **Example 1 (Process):** "Our agile process with weekly sprints kept us on track and allowed us to adapt to feedback quickly."
|
|
- **Example 2 (Technology):** "Using TypeScript from the start caught many potential runtime errors during development, saving us significant debugging time."
|
|
- **Example 3 (WeChat Specific):** "The integration with WeChat's Open Data Context for friend leaderboards was smoother than expected and proved to be a major driver of user engagement."
|
|
- **Example 4 (Team):** "The communication between the art and development teams was excellent, leading to a very efficient asset pipeline."

## 5. What Didn't Go So Well? (The Bad)
|
|
*List items that were challenging or failed. Be honest and focus on the issues, not blaming individuals.*
|
|
|
|
- **Example 1 (Planning):** "We underestimated the complexity of the backend logic for handling session keys, which led to a two-week delay."
|
|
- **Example 2 (Technology):** "We encountered significant performance issues on older Android models, requiring a last-minute optimization sprint."
|
|
- **Example 3 (WeChat Specific):** "A sudden change in WeChat's API policy for user information required a significant rework of our onboarding flow just before launch."
|
|
- **Example 4 (Process):** "Our bug tracking process was inconsistent in the beginning, making it hard to prioritize fixes."

## 6. What Did We Learn? (The Lessons)
|
|
*Synthesize the good and the bad into key takeaways. What are the main lessons for the future?*
|
|
|
|
- **Lesson 1:** "For future WeChat Mini Game projects, we must allocate specific research time to stay ahead of platform policy changes."
|
|
- **Lesson 2:** "Performance testing on a wide range of devices needs to start earlier in the development cycle, not just before release."
|
|
- **Lesson 3:** "A dedicated backend developer with experience in WeChat's authentication flow is crucial for projects requiring server interaction."
|
|
- **Lesson 4:** "TypeScript is a major asset for this type of project and should be standard practice going forward."
