HAPPY NEW YEAR #2025!!!

This was for sure a year huh... It quite went pretty fast honestly, but still memorable in many ways!

I didn't got to do what I wanted in 2024: Finishing my dream games, but maybe this year!

Feliz ano novo! (GMT +0/Lisbon timezone)


My plans for this new year

Since I didn't do much in 2024, here's my plans for 2025:

  • Release at least 2 of my games that I got to work on (Dragoon Woosh and Kumper Socks);

  • Start working on my big 2 dream games (Time Tomias and Excalinine);

  • Actually lock in and work on the Time Tomias pilot, since it's for my last ever school project that will determine if I can finish highschool and move on. (And once everything's done, I'll be able to finally share it and then I'll have to do an english dub);

  • Try to adapt to an actual 3D engine so I can actually work on Excalinine (if not, I'll just stick to Turbowarp's 3D extension, but it won't be easy...);

#Devruary KoGaMa! I always spent my time in there making my own maps and my avatars (skins) to then play on other user created maps, this idea of creating stuff that then you and others can play on it stuck with me and that's how I wanted to make games.

#Devruary I learnt some of it as I made small games on Scratch over the years until I left it for other engines.

And I'd watch devlogs and tips for devs on Youtube once in a while where I learnt some new stuff about gamedev (although I'm still a newbie).

#Devruary having to deal with bugs while having no idea how to fix them (then you get stuck and leave the project for 2 months until you randomly unlock the solution for it and come back)

I rewrote a script many times now and the bug keeps getting worse

The frontpage!

Many stuff can get frontpaged, like art, creations, and even simple text posts!

Please note that the frontpage is simply a spotlight to bring attention to posts. Do not feel unmotivated if you don't get frontpaged!

#Devruary I always had this habit of backing up the project files, game assets and even concept art on my drive.

It's very useful for archiving stuff and if you need to recover something (or if you simply want to look back at your old stuff).

#Devruary Sidetracking between different projects at once!

I had this bad habit for a very long time, I'd be working on a game and then weeks later I'd be working on another game at the same time, and then leave the other game abandoned and so on.

#Devruary I'm using GB Studio!

It's an engine for developing games for the Gameboy (DMG & Colour) systems. (Many devs got to put their games on cartidges and play them on the actual consoles!)

It's block coding based so it's very easy to get the hang of.
