Every so often I think about doing streaming just for the fun of it; like streaming working on small side project or playing something.

I am just unsure whether it even be fun without people to interact with and I am guessing that is already pretty tough to get to, no?

Saw something like this go around last year and forgot to take part so let me ask, Devs what was:
1) the first game you played?
2) game you love from childhood/teen years?
3) the game that inspired you to become a dev?
4) game that inspires you to be a better dev?
#gamedev

I feel like I've built enough small games, prototypes, game jam games, stuff I don't care enough about that I would spend time polishing it, making it pretty, fun, balanced, etc.

Now what's the next step? I'd like to focus on one "bigger" game, but I want to actually design it instead of coding right away, to avoid falling into the software engineering trap. Are game design documents a thing for this type of "first big project" projects?

I've downloaded a lot of free images, added a few cards and monsters, and now it's starting to feel a bit more like a game 😄

Just started adding images (free resources, I am too bad at game art, so I decided I would not struggle with it for this game jam 😆).

Next step, I'll need a victory/defeat screen, and then I'll move on to actual cards/monsters/heroes/map game design!

ok so I've got all the game systems now, it's ugly because there's no drawings at all, no animations, no music, no sounds, no nothing...

15 days left to work on the actual content (everything is json, so that's that), and make everything pretty enough that I'm not too embarassed to submit it to #githubgameoff

#gamedev #indiedev #godotengine #godot

I've made it so that everything is configurable via json files, so that I can create new cards, monsters, levels, when I'm all done, so I'm focusing on the core loop right now

Still not much, but the core loop is starting to look like something! The cards are drawn, the mana spent, the monster attacks, there's some sort of map layout... Hopefully I have enough time to work on it this weekend!

Initial #pixelart mockup for the Github #GameOff game jam!

Alright, at least I've not done _nothing_ today...
