Hey Guys!, Hope you're doing great! i was a little worried because i am a solo developer but as you guys says in the video the first minutes, i start to get less worried! thanks for an excellent video, it really helps. Hope to hear from you guys soon. Happy New Year!
Happy New Year, Paolo! It's great to hear from you again! Yup, one person can wear all the hats. It's definitely tough, but many have done it, and there's a lot of support online :)
My friends and I are a 4-man team. We all have some experience in at least one of these fields, with me having the most experience. I can do a little bit of everything, and I am the lead programmer. I also am the manager. So, I think my friends and I are all set.
Just recently found these videos and they are amazing!!😯 Currently working alone, but if my first indie game sells a decent amount i'l be looking for more game devs to work with, this really helped a lot😎
This is an exceptionally high quality video, I was just curious about game development and now I feel like I have a foundational understanding. Well done!
As a solo dev: No coding = less control and less complexity. More speed and no unnecessary setup code Script = more control and greater scope, less speed Bootstraps = enhanced control and potentially grand and ultimassive projects. Scope is at least a couple months Vulkan = you literally have to be making a high-end superproject to even poke this thing with a stick. You’re guaranteed at least 2 years if you’re new
I'm a solo dev, so I do all of those roles, except I'm one person. So I do coding, art, music, audio, marketing, everything, oh and I'm also a teen solo dev, so
Hi guys! Our first game (Dongo Adventure) was recently released on Steam! The game was produced by me and my brother for 11 months. About the game: The game is 3D Platform style, inspired by the classic platform games (mainly 'Donkey Kong Country 2'), bringing all those challenges and fun of the genre. Check out the trailer and game link on Steam on my Channel. Thanks in advance!
looks so much like the Donkey Kong Country games. I'll purchase the game right now. I may have questions about getting on steam.. hit me up if you ever need props or art done.
And I am here making my whole game by myself, I just started yesterday but I had to depend on pre made assets because I did not have a Game designer, Audio designer, and an Artist. I use rpg playground for practicing so no need to make my own assets. Good thing I have experience in story telling which made my game look like a story focused game than a real rpg. Idk I just have to wait and see
thanks for your great high quality content wow good job !!👍 the only youtube gamedev channel that inlighting us about the process of Game production 👏👏i wonder why haven't you reach 1 milion subscriber yet? such a good work must payed attention to the hole game dev Community which is not done yet but keep up Man😊 you re the top one in the list
So, what’s the best way to go about forming a team? I would like to make a game, but have no idea where to start looking for a team. I have some skills, but I certainly don’t have all of them.
Break Glass For Memes I have the same problem, I’ve tried many times to make a team and never succeeded. I just want teammates ;-; I’m tired of making games alone
I would recommend you to get into a big game making discord. Not only do most of them have a channel where you can ask people to join your team. You can also talk to people and ask them questions. Btw if you want to start your own team it might be smart to join an other team for a time to look how they do the things
For those that know about game development, should I learn C# for game development? I'm planning on taking a course on C# but I'm not 100% sure if it's necessary.
Nice and great video! Just want to point out something. The 3ds max logo and maya logo are the other way around on 5:00. Let's forget that small detail. Anyway, I thought the animator job is part of artist's job LOL and you cleared it up on 5:49 (I'm like oh sh*t I'm wrong then oh it's not hahaha). A long time ago I've some great idea for making a new game, but the idea go to thin air and I can't remember what that idea about. Next time should write down a nice idea that comes to my mind even though I can't create it (knowledge, time, and other issues). LOL Just want to say you have great content and great quality video! Keep it up guys!
as someone who wants to make a game as a hobby project I plan on learning most of these over time, I think my biggest problems would be through animation and audio design. Unless I can find some really handy assets that'll streamline these for me.
And Finally I created a complete game for Android. I'm going to release it soon. I faced lot more struggles in Art and Audio section as a solo deveolper. Hope my game goes well!!!
Hey guys, I am 3D artist and essentially, I can make every bit of graphics I need for my game, but, my skills in programming are extremely low.So, what do you think I should do? A.Try to make it on my own based on tutorials in unity/unreal. B.Make some assets and try to hire a programmer from my limited budget to at least make a demo. C.Something else. Hope you guys see this, thanks for making great content!

Sometimes it's easier for animator (and some artists) to have the audio done first. Artists may get a better feel for characters, and animators may have clearer parameters for timing, especially for things like lipsynching.
@@AskGamedev kind of figuring it out during the process! but surely some nice procedural terrain/biome/dungeon/general areas generation with tons of exploration... mincraftesque/rpgesque but non-combat
Nobody uses that until they get into an industry job. You don't need it. They're relics of an age long gone and kept only to separate elitists. Which is starting to backfire on them.
[flips through folders] lets see... CEO, clerk, company manager, game designer... I don't see "composer" listed anywhere. I guess they aren't needed. Maybe you should get yourself a copy of Audacity and learn how to be an Audio Guy, like this video says. 🤔
looking for a artist to join the team , I'm developing a basic mobile game and all the code is done I just need art(mine isn't very good) . You can get 33% of everything the game makes *This won't be a lot because it is a basic game* but I do want to develop more games in the future so maybe this could be a lasting partnership!
Honestly all I have is my money and a general idea... plus some very minor art skills... all I can really be is the producer...... even then I don't have the money
I can't remember if it was one of your videos, but they listed a website that's good for finding teams for game dev and game jams. Anyone know what the site is? I can't find it again.
I know it has been 2 years, but honestly, school is a good way to learn. While going through school (like a community college or something until you get more serious and go for the BS), keep developing small projects and use the things you learned to make games.
Is coding going to stay as relevant as it is right now, or are things like visual scripting and code assets making it more and more viable to make games without much coding experience? At least when it comes to 2d games. Worried if my skillset is going to stay relevant.
Coding will be relevant for the forseeable future. You may think, "There is no need for xxxx language or yyyy language" But, there is always a need for someone who knows programming well.

For those that know about game development, should I learn C# for game development? I'm planning on taking a course on C# but I'm not 100% sure if it's necessary.
c# is an excellent language to start your knowledge of game development with. It’s the main language used in Unity - the popular game engine.
You can also use C# in MonoDevelop/MonoGame and Godot. 👍 And C# is good for Xamarin too for apps, but Idk if Xamarin is good for mobile games
@@giannistek1 Godot is sort of iffy when it comes to C#
C++ (a minor amount in most cases - just know the basics) and GDScript are your best friends.

Is a writer necessary for a gamedev if you are trying to build a great story
how much should i pay each person per month?
hearing "we previously made video about..." for 50th time ohh fuck this im out.
Ｏｋ everything makes sense.
audio designer comes before visual artist, oh really? when like 30% of the players play with no sound?
It's a team effort. visual artist make backgrounds and backdrops and so much that goes into a game is unseen or overlooked by the player
Sometimes it's easier for animator (and some artists) to have the audio done first. Artists may get a better feel for characters, and animators may have clearer parameters for timing, especially for things like lipsynching.
