My 1.5 year old recently started "enhancing" every flat surface with his crayons. This sparked an idea in my game developer brain: what if I could bring his creations to life digitally with animations, sounds and interactivity?
And with that, Doodle Motion was born!

@dotagegame Big Congrats! Been following the progress on this one for a while. Would love to see a post sometime about how you managed to keep motivated and sane through that span

This feels unreal. While making this game I...
- Rented an apartment
- Completed my PhD
- Bought a car
- Got engaged
- Worked on 15+ games
- Got 3 cats
- Got married
- Visited Japan
- Bought a house
- Had a baby
Guess this game is a close friend :)
And now it releases! #solodev

8 billion users will become creators and it will be amazing and terrifying.
I don’t know what the long term future of AI or trans-human intelligence is, but in the near term, it will completely disrupt and commoditize a lot of complexity out of existing tech stacks.

Why is AI amazing? I’ve never made an iPhone app. But after asking GPT-4 a few questions I have a working app on my actual phone in <30min. We’re about to see an explosion in the number of people shipping software.

Lets make a fun little game that: -You want to make -That you want to play -That you can make -That you can afford -That is wisely scoped -In a genre you can compete in -That includes a reason to play instead of something else -That is marketable -That is streamable

🏎 It's crucial to me that you can have a chill experience with the game, but I'm also striving to add a layer of speedrun replayability.
Keep in mind, This is a test area, with no obstacles or enemies, simply a means to demonstrate the pacing.

With the recent Unity shenanigans, I'm super grateful that open source options like @godotengine and @phaser_ (my 2 current favorites) exist for indie game development

DUNGEON MASTER for #AMIGA500 (FTL Games 1988)
Important game that became the template for dungeon crawlers. Originally developed in C for the ST, then ported to Amiga, DOS and others. Possibly the 1st time I've used a mouse in a game, it was pretty intuitive.

There was a recent game jam.
@_hsaka_ jumped and made this simple, annoying, splendid, time-sink of an entry.

Nice work, Akash!

@iStarr @kellabyte Building a full game with a group of collaborators using marketplace assets is a totally valid approach. Many assets can be manipulated to fit the style of your game

Any of my followers good with Unreal Engine? Holy shit I have so many questions haha. I’m kind of curious how a community of folks could contribute to a game with paid assets off the marketplace if one of the members was willing to pay for the addons etc.
