Hello everyone ! I am happy to participate into this #PortfolioDay as a #GameDesigner !

I'm mainly focused on #Strategy games and dealing with content management (Characters, Enemies, Weapons, Towers, Items...) but I enjoy the whole field, through my own adapted #GameDesign frameworks/templates on #Miro !

In production, I work on #Unity ! I'm also a modder, as I already modded #Civ6 and will soon try myself to #Humankind !

I'm open to work !

#IndieDev #IndieGame #Demo

So the #EnGarde demo was a little bit on the short end, but decently shows off the game.

The sword-on-sword combat gets very quickly overwhelming when more than one opponent are involved, and that's pretty much where the game wants you to start kicking props at opponents and try to divide them up. It took a little while for it to click, and I ended up rebinding the controls quite a bit, but I think it's worth checking out when it fully releases.

Yesterday I was talking to a friend who's wanted to "be a #gamedev" for years, but constantly struggles to find what he actually wants to do.

He told me about how there are a bunch of game devs he follows on social media (naming TikTok specifically), but when asked what #games they made he explained they hadn't actually released anything and just made videos about making stuff.

I think this is a lot more common than people actually in the industry realize and I think it's a bigger issue than people outside the industry realize. There's a huge difference between "people who talk about how games are made" and "people who make games." I don't mean this as an attempt to gatekeep, but for people who genuinely want to enter the games industry, having role models who are charismatic but haven't ever actually released a full game (either as an #indie or part of a professional studio) is extremely unhelpful (and I would argue, anti-helpful).
