@bluegoogames @MartiansGame @halfondarr @memoryfloater @poxelgames That just means you got a bunch of ppl that know your smart 😁😁

@MartiansGame @halfondarr @Brazlo @memoryfloater @poxelgames Hey thanks for the mention! I’m pretty sure I did this already, but I say try to keep it simple and as small as possible. We already failed that but we wont give up :)

What's the most important lesson you've learned on your #gamedev journey? 📝 Then tag 2 smart 🧠 ppl👤 you know to do the same! #indiedev #gamedeveloper #MondayMotivation

@memoryfloater @halfondarr @MartiansGame @Modular_Squared @of_imperfect Soo... Any change of actually get a book or list? 😃

@halfondarr @Brazlo @MartiansGame ❤️+🌱=🌳 I could probably write a book with useful tips. If I had to limit myself to one, my tip of today would be: If you think your code is good you are not writing good code. 👨‍💻 My two smarties: @Modular_Squared @of_imperfect

@halfondarr @Brazlo @memoryfloater Thanks @halfondarr! 💜 Our game dev journey only started one month ago, so we've not had time to learn that much yet! 😆 But one thing I keep thinking of is: - Don't be afraid to cast aside seemingly good ideas to keep your game simple. Next up... @bluegoogames @poxelgames

You need hobbies outside of gaming, too. But never forget to learn from gaming's own past and future! @nicothedev (How has nobody tagged you here yet?) & @Zeppeli_ , you're up!

@Gamerrorist @Brazlo @RisinGoat @MikiMortis @FlyingBeastLabs @xeleh @MardanPrado @yawxy I preffer the “keep it stupid” principle

- Being wrong is okay. Having to iterate is okay. - Accepting feedback and using references is a MUST. And my favourite: 'Seek perfection, knowing you will never achieve it.' I choose you: @dtConfect @Designer_VickyB !

@JaviCepa @CZAzuaga @xeleh @DrKuchoGames @RisinGoat @MikiMortis @FlyingBeastLabs @Gamerrorist @ThomasPasieka @SylphArcade @Baxayaun @RicoAlbe Could you explain? 100 levels? Features?

@dreamy_robot @octomini @of_imperfect @ChocPinecone @coldi @bitsandfoxes @apico_game @Kiwi_Comet @MrBregoS @StelloHexis @PuddleheadC @bluegoogames @crazyoysterdevs Ohh, splitting them up onto 2 lists is a great idea! 👏 I always just jumbled them together 😳😳

@GabrielHinton Ahh, thanks for clarifying and sharing 😃

@Brazlo Oh sorry was moving to quickly there. Others as in expanding team, getting voice actors, composers, programmers needed etc. It also helps to know a bit of the program you want to use for making stuff as well, that's why I tell people to start small, and finish something first.

@xeleh @DrKuchoGames @RisinGoat @MikiMortis @FlyingBeastLabs @Gamerrorist @ThomasPasieka @CZAzuaga Don't? Start? Hydrate? Wait?

@DrKuchoGames @RisinGoat @Brazlo @MikiMortis @FlyingBeastLabs @Gamerrorist Don't. It's too late... @ThomasPasieka @CZAzuaga

@RisinGoat @MikiMortis @FlyingBeastLabs @DrKuchoGames 😂 good advice 😃

@Brazlo @MikiMortis Hydrate, it's gonna be a looong trip. @FlyingBeastLabs @DrKuchoGames

@dreamy_robot @octomini @of_imperfect @ChocPinecone @coldi @bitsandfoxes @apico_game @Kiwi_Comet @MrBregoS @StelloHexis @PuddleheadC @bluegoogames @crazyoysterdevs How detailed do you make your to-do lists? Broad? Narrow? By priority?

How do you tell? Any examples tools that you use?

It means that when doing X for the game, X should have little to no effect on any other system/feature in the game. This allows one to reduce the mental burden when working on X (improving speed) and also when X has to change its way easier.

It feels strange giving "advice" being relatively new to gamedev, and still learning. But something what works for me is to every day do a little. Maybe I just have 10 mins free in all my day, but i still at least do something small for one of my projects
