@ZoeQuinnzel I heard 10/90 -- but either way I think the vital thing is to know what a 70% (or 90%) finished project actually looks like.
One of the best pieces of game dev advice I've ever gotten: "The last 30% is 70% of the work"

@lexaloffle you're right, I'm misquoting

@ZoeQuinnzel Actually, I like 30/70 better because you get to hold on to a bit of optimistic self-deception which is also valuable. -
@lexaloffle gets tiring toward the end though when you get to the "damnit I thought this would be done already" parts

@ZoeQuinnzel@NinRac So true.... The last 30% of your game dev effort is 70% of the work overall. Certainly was the case with our game. -
@TimBuchalka@ZoeQuinnzel@NinRac I've heard that, but in a 10%-90% rate. And I think it's specially true in game development. -
@1PArmy@ZoeQuinnzel@NinRac Didn't find it was 10-90% for our first game but no doubt the most effort was finishing the game off!!
