also, I wanted to quickly ask, what kinda games are you working on at the moment?
Viewing post in Amazing game, thank you for open sourcing it.
Right now I’ve got three in the works, with another that’ll come out of the Ludum Dare game jam next weekend.
The first is long term (probably 2 years dev time) that is a slime rancher inspires farming simulator set in a magical forest.
Next are two smaller horror games that I’m using to build out my tool-chain (all the stuff that makes it easier for me to just make the content of the game instead of working on boilerplate stuff like main menus, volume controls, etc..) one I released a tech demo for recently to show off the visual style (remaking that of Ascension Of The Lamb) and the other I’ve posted a video on my YouTube briefly showing off. It’s inspired by FNAF Pizzeria Simulator.
All the necessary links are in my bio if you wanna track any of that down.
Though I should add that the various projects I’m working on are liable to change. I don’t get much money at all from making games right now, so I make it easier to enjoy by just doing whatever I want with games, including not releasing or not finishing them
I'm sorry for the late response, I've seen 1 game drop, and another is a lighting demo, overall you're doing great, better then I could do at least. but 3 in the works? that's crazy impressive, I can't even stay on one game, and finish it, yet you're about to spend 2 years "probably in dev time, or longer, or shorter, who knows" is just beyond crazy to a newer dev like me, maybe I rush things too much, and overall just get discouraged at the progress, and lack of my abilities. but hey, the abilities is just one thing, having faith in yourself is another. so great job, I can't image spending a long time on any game can be easy, so I hope nothing but the best for you, and your games. but I look forward to more of your games, even more so the horror ones, hopefully in a ps1 style of course. but thank you for explaining it, I was confused on what a tool-chain was. you seem crazy talented, and impressive to work on 3 games, and to be building out a tool chain. and I'm looking forward to the remake, and I'll make sure to check out the video, thank you for letting me know.
I understand, and overall I'm glad games are liable to change, I feel like you should work on a game that you truly want to work on, and enjoy. and I'm sorry to hear you barely get any money, but who can say, I'm sure more people will check out your games, and it'll go from barely, to some, to a good bit. it may just take time. but I think you should always follow that thought, do whatever you want with games, as putting your heart behind the game will make it infinite times better, and plus, not every person is gonna like your game, or the way I speak, or like just about anything, every human is one of a kind, and having people love and hate your game comes with that. I think the people who love your games will share your mindset, at least, imo. but like I said, make sure games have passion, put something out you had fun making, and you feel proud of, never feel forced to put out games eithers, the games we make are apart of us, and show us who we are, and how we think in many ways, at least, imo, and while I'm sure you know all of is, and it's such a simple thing, it still holds true. it's amazing how enjoyable a game can be from just some passion and love put behind it. anyways, enough of me ranting on, I hope all is well, I hope you're taking your time with your games, and having fun. and make sure to take care of yourself, making games, and focusing on them allows you to just forget about life, and time itself. so it's important you take some time for yourself, of course, it may be only me who'll pour hours into thinking about making a game, and try to make it just to have a deformed world come out of nowhere with bugs. I'm sorry for the rants, once again, I hope all is well, thank you for being an amazing dev, and I'll be sure to stay up to date with the games you push out the best I can. hopefully there isn't any pressure, but then again, I'm just a random person. anyways, you're doing great, and I can't wait to see more games you make, have a nice day
