What does success look like for your current project? #Devruary Success is the friends we made along the way.

How Do You Usually Plan A Game Dev Project? #Devruary First, I dump ideas into a paper notebook like a game dev from the stone age. Then I tame the chaos using draw.io, Hack'n'Plan, and Notion. This pipeline works pretty well for me!

What feature almost broke your game? #Devruary Hack'n'slash combat system. College project. Peak overconfidence meets peak inexperience.

The feature died so the game could live (barely). Lesson learned: scope management is a SKILL.

What advice would you give a new dev? #Devruary START. SMALL.

I'm talking Flappy Bird, Brick Breaker, Pong level small.

Trying to make GTA 20 as your first project? That's a one-way ticket to burnout town. Walk before you run.

#NinjaScroller 1.61.8 BUILD 49

How do you deal with burnout? #Devruary

Honestly? I just... step away. Stop coding.

The irony is that as a game dev, I rarely have time to actually PLAY games anymore. So when burnout hits, I try to play games that are nothing like what I'm developing.

Never before in my life did I think I would see this message. Damn, I didn't even know it existed. And this is a 2TB SSD we're talking about. I'm so screwed. #Unity #GameDev #IndieDev

1.3 is Out!

Finally we have the stupid dumb perspective effect and also fixed some minor bugs

Thanks https://nicktastictoons.itch.io/fnaf-panorama-unity for making the original shader!

What's your favorite game that does a lot with a simple idea? #GJAsks Say No! More! The game is literally just pressing one button to yell "NO!" at your coworkers, and somehow that's one of the most cathartic and hilarious experiences I've ever had!
