Some days the code flows. Today it stuck. Spent the session hunting a bug that was killing my orders log display. Found it. Fixed it. Back on track. #indiegame #solodev #gamedev

#gamedev truth: Some days you're a coding wizard. Other days you're proud you remembered to save your file. Both days matter. The wizard days get the glory, but the showing-up days build the game. Consistency beats intensity every time. Progress is progress. #solodev #indiegame

@ericnofsinger The yellow is deliberate. I want it to feel like a hazard signal, clinical and urgent. The environment lives in the game itself, a NORAD-style tactical display. Two very different visual registers working together. Does that contrast sound like it could work?

@davmakesgames That yellow pops! A soldier, centric design can definitely catch the eye, but consider how the background might tell more of the story. It’s all about creating intrigue while keeping it clean. What’s your vision for the environment?

Feeling like you don't deserve your gamedev wins? Maybe you're exactly where you need to be. Your path doesn't have to match others. Your timeline is your own. Stop comparing. #indiegame #gamedev #solodev

Building a zombie RTS where you're the commander, not the soldier. I went NORAD style — easier to build solo and fits the fantasy. Does it sell the concept or get in the way? #indiegame #solodev #zombiegame

Place your units on a city and civilians flock to you for protection. A horde shows up — they scatter. Horde gone — they return. Nobody told them to do this. It emerged from the rules. the game is starting to feel alive. 🎮 #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #zombiegame

Didn't program this. It just happened. Refugees cluster around army units for protection. When a horde appears they scatter. When it's gone, they return. Simple rules. Emergent behaviour. This is what I'm building toward. #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #zombie #zombiegame

6am start. Blinds open, coffee on the desk, nobody else awake yet. Spent the first hour refactoring a component architecture. Nobody asks for this work. Nobody sees it. The game just gets harder to break. #indiedev #gamedev #godot

In every zombie movie, the army shows up. And the army fails. Working on a prototype. A zombie outbreak RTS on a NORAD-style tactical display. You're the commander, not the soldier. Can you do better than the army? #indiedev #gamedev #godot

Feels wrong to start posting without an intro, so here it is. I’m David, I like to make games. I created a free game and posted it on Steam. I’m making a bigger game. Unfortunately, I also work for a living. I’m a husband, father and programmer.
