Day 18- Get organized early. Having a scalable, comprehensive system in place to track tasks and manage a project as it matures could be the difference between a hit release and a project falling flat on its face only a few months (or weeks) in #25daysofdevmas #devastating #indiedev #gamedev #gaming

25. What's the weirdest or coolest bug you've encountered?

Wasn't anything crazy, just had my state machine screwed up, but here's my character sprite spinning around endlessly instead of being idle 😅

#Devmas 12. Do you prefer story first or gameplay first design?

Definitely story first or story forward. I definitely prefer coming up with a setting and universe then making mechanics that make sense in that world.

Day 17- We want our players to feel seen, hopeful and inspired. The kind of unique, intimately transformative experience that gets you a bit choked up when thinking or talking about it even years down the line. Profound impact above all else. #25DaysOfDevmas #Devmas #indiedev #gamedev #gaming

Day 20- There are still a ton of people out there who have never experienced Red Dead 2 or Shadow of the Colossus. Everyone should play through them at least once! 😤 #25daysofdevmas #devastating #indiedev #gamedev #gaming

#Devmas 11. What's a mechanic you love to design and why?

I really like designing combat systems. I come from a card game and miniature game background and there's so much room there for innovation.

Day 11- This is a hard one, but it's a tie between the phone features and mini-games. It's fun hiding easter eggs, details and lore in the different crevices of the game in hopes that someone just as curious comes across them one day. #25DaysOfDevmas #Devmas #indiedev #gamedev #gaming

8. As the teams lead speaking. It's been keeping the teams morale high when troubles arise. Luckily I was fortunate to recruit the most talented and wonderful people to work with.

What's been the most challenging part of developing your game so far?

Weirdly, its just been finding good documentation, examples, and tutorials. I'm doing C# in #godot, and its really just hard to not use gscript sometimes.

Day 23- Third person, open-world action scifis will get played every time. As far as a guilty pleasure game, Roblox before bed is a must. Who's tryna run some Frontlines, Harbor Havoc or Rivals? 👀 #25DaysOfDevmas #Devmas #indiedev #gamedev #gaming

22. What's your favorite thing about the indie game dev community?

This one's easy. A lot of people talk a bit game about a rising tide lifts all ships. But y'all believe it. Everyone is excited for you and your game and incredibly supportive

Day 13- "Stand on that!" Every decision matters in Project Leo, not just the big intersections. Character is who you are when no one is watching so expect to be met with the natural consequence (good or bad) of every step, breath and syllable. 😏 #25DaysOfDevmas #Devmas #indiedev #gamedev #gaming

Day 22- It's amazing how talented many indiedevs are across multiple disciplines. From concepting to coding, art, rigging, animating, marketing, writing etc., many devs can (see: have to 😅) do it all. There are no one trick ponies in indie game dev! #25DaysOfDevmas #Devmas #indiedev #gamedev #gaming

Day 3- Aside from wanting to take pride in our development style and process and celebrating the accomplishments that come from that, "prestige" is word play on the online handle of PI's founder, @preztg.me

Day 25- The weirdest bug so far was a macro turning pages and text color of all our files in the doc repo the same shade of gray. If it weren't for file size, page numbers and the wisdom to hit ctrl + A, we would've thought we were wiped entirely! #25DaysOfDevmas #Devmas #indiedev #gamedev #gaming

Day 19- It's a tie between those who appreciate seeing more black, queer representation in the space and those who catch on to all the esoteric callbacks and foreshadowing elements in the story. We love rewarding the observant and curious! 😄 #25daysofdevmas #devmas #indiedev #gamedev #gaming

Day 21- In #blender fixing an old texturing error on one of the sets that has reared its ugly head again. Correctly UV Unwrap Before Saving Asset in Repo Challenge (IMPOSSIBLE) 🤦🏾‍♂️ #25DaysOfDevmas #Devmas #indiedev #gamedev #gaming
December 22, 2024 at 2:43 AM
Day 6- We don't build what we wouldn't play. Market research on what's en vogue rn only goes so far with advising what we make because authenticity is so much more important to us. Our tribe will vibe and that's all that matters. #25DaysOfDevmas #Devmas #indiedev #gamedev #gaming

Day 16- Being threatened at swordpoint by Orochi over the slightest decrease in productivity during the workday would be motivation like no other. Dates are getting moved up immediately! 😂 #25DaysOfDevmas #Devmas #indiedev #gamedev #gaming #forhonor
