👋 Hi, I'm Doug!

You probs got here via a starter pack.
I will try to be a pleasant surprise. 😁

TLDR:
Started learning #gamedev 1yr ago (had coding exp). Started with #gamemaker & moved to #Godot

Building a 3D game & a collaboration framework!

💙 Sci-Fi, Music, Art
I do not tolerate intolerance
My Google ads Aura is nicely Halloweeny... but otherwise a bit basic.
I wasn't going to say anything but a few days ago I opened Godot.

I blocked out a single level for a one scene jam style game.

Haven't made a character controller or anything else but... I opened Godot.

gamedev but no "real" coding.
Day 144.
I have re-acquired my iPad.
Still no sign of the iPencil...
Her design skills are as dead as her morals.
Maybe make sure those content creators have access to your game for their holiday drop.
Let your brain worry if you've spent a significant enough amount of time basking in it.
... Probably not.
Yesterday kinda sucked, but it's another step away from the old life. Gotta keep focused on building the new one

Had a TINY #gamedev idea to do as a Jam to honor the journey & reintroduce myself to #Godot - but not sure when/if I'll get to it
Type-o cancel me. Should have said can't fool me. Voice to text fail.
Cancel me, that's a cleverly disguised time teleportation device.
Need ideas for a good solo vacay in 2026 for someone who isn't good at meeting people

Are there low-prey gamedev boot camps or something?

I've seen the “geeky cruises” out there but I dunno if that'd be fun solo. But then, what would?

Can I just go help out at an archeology dig?
Yep in the end... money.
For the record: whatever the process, I'm glad it worked out for Jimmy Kimmel ... I kinda thought all the late night hosts were gonna have to start their own streaming service

🤔 Maybe the should
If that happens I wanna work there. Doing... something
I'm a "Big Idea" guy... I can do something
Nice first DevLog!
I'm curious what game engine you're going to use?
And has probably never even tried to make a game & and knows they couldn't if they tried.
I worry about you.
packing boxes, jigsaw puzzles ... what will you warp next? Mac & Cheese?
The person who wrote that is a sad angry person. Hopefully one day they realize it and can get the help they need.
