  • I wanted to do a devlog for my game, but as I talked about the journey I realized I had a lot to say over the past 3 years. Even though I call myself an "artist" first, all this stuff is so new to me. I think its really helpful to reflect on the past and see how far we've come

    You literally have so many skills that game designers desperately want. Background in art and music, plenty of experience working with developers, and then you started learning Godot too. Indie dev is your calling!

    Its always cool to see transparency in developers videos. I really appreciate that you can look back and objectively criticize your self in past projects. That kind of stuff truly grows people and makes you even better! I hope this new project for you is fun and a good learning experience!

    Its quite refreshing to see someone come from a background in art before coding, as the art is the hardest part for me, ide say my art is mediocre but i find it hard to stay consistent 1 minutes im 3d modelling the next im in aesprite and suddenly find my self in illustrator lol, great work looks great

    Lovel to see that iis possible to have nearly a whole game already setup ( and worried about overscopingthem) as you see comin alot of code comin towards you and with every changed mob / added feature maybe more code :).A lot of us go the other way around. finding balance is always hard!

    Hey man, I really love your art. Both Diablo and Multiplayer Shooter have cool pieces of art. Also played your first game, it was quite fun and had some personality already. I am pretty sure you will be able to make cool games in future. You stuck along for quite a bit, didn't quit and worked on one project. Your work ethic and ability to look back and give some insight on previous experience are great qualities. Keep going :)

    Can I ask you what setup you use for working with pixel art in Godot? Do you use a pixel perfect viewport or just go with canvas_items (or 2d in Godot 3) mode?

    Man i really wish i had more time to learn art and music but with the recent Unity drama now I'm learning Godot and GD script, it's quite a setback for me. I am determined though, even if it takes everything I have, I'd rather drain my energy dry doing something I love than sit around doing nothing at all!

      oh thanks, it was really fun to work on and the multiplayer really had some potential, I didn't touch on this in the video, but it felt really scary to focus on a multiplayer game as an indie dev. Like the game would be unplayable without a player base.

The scarriest thing is that i still have to generate money for a living, spending 8 hours in a day by doing my job. And there is not that much time left after to progress will. It seems the process can take infinite amount of time... Could you give any advice?
