I would say I dream of making story based games but it always causes scope creep for me and I get too perfectionistic about it. It would take me forever to finish one. So I tend to find a strong mechanic and build off of that. I personally find Tetris to be a perfect game. It’s just very elegant in its simplicity. So I try and replicate that same simplicity these days

I do a combination of all of those actually lol, I make what I can work with text and then when that runs out I get free assets and I make my own janky pixel art and I put squares in place for what I’m too lazy to do. I do all that until I have time to make artwork myself lol

@Mathew Georghiou when I have a small window, I just take care of adding or fixing little pieces of code I know that I’ll need down the line

My core gameplay loop is almost fully complete, then it will be mostly art and fine tuning gameplay

I want to post a video but I can’t get obs to work right with it lmao And I’m using most of my time to finish the code

Hi, go by Josh. My career is in Cybersecurity / IT but my passion is games and game programming. I’m making (you could say) a tiny card game. Right now, it’s called Dog Cards. It’s going to be fully featured but I think that as far as scope it’s much much smaller than what I’ve made in the past. I’m making it in Godot. I made a mobile game from start to finish around 10 years ago or so called UMI. I’ve also done lots of little projects in between that I never released. One was a bubble bobble RPG. I mostly worked in Unity for those games but now I’m migrating to Godot after being inspired by your work on Substack! I also love animals and bugs and animated films!
