Different levels of bug importance

Before I wrap up this chapter, it is a good idea to discuss the levels of bug importance. Most game developers use this to categorize the bugs they encounter in their games and use this as a basis for which bugs to take care of first. These levels, ordered from most important to least, are as follows:

Critical bugs: These are bugs that make the game freeze or crash or else make it impossible for the player to continue the game. These bugs can prevent the next level from loading or prevent the Play button on the title screen from working.
Major bugs: These are bugs that make it very difficult for the player to play the game. These can come in the form of the character that randomly stops attacking, a certain ability that doesn't work, or an enemy that doesn't die when its HP (Health Points) reaches zero.

Subagio

Subagio

Aryadi Subagio is the second among seven brothers. He has loved video games ever since he was little, and he wanted to make his own game in his teenage years. This led him to pursue a Diploma in Computer Programming after he graduated from high school, where he spent years learning about software development techniques. He learned about game development from online sites, because at that time, there was no book on game development in Indonesia. After graduating, he immediately jumped into the world of game development. During this time, he made a few shooting games for the Flash Platform. After a year, he decided to gain more experience by working in a game studio; this is when he joined Esabra Studio. After working at Esabra Studio, he worked at Enthrean Guardian, a game studio based in Semarang. He has now quit working and is trying to set up his own studio. Aryadi has a passion for sharing his knowledge. He has written a lot of blog posts about game development on Indonesian and English sites. He also shares his knowledge on his own personal blog at http://daggio21.blogspot.com/.
