I'm using the same art as Randy but his shared one is in a different aspect ratio from the one used in his tutorials, so here's the one with the "correct" aspect ratio:
Loy's Journey
Henlo, my name is Loy! I'm a junior Web Developer from Brazil who's passionate about games and I've always wanted to try to create something of my own, but always got lost in the cluster tutorial hell of Unity videos. I've been following Randy and other game-creator youtubers for years and after watching his last video, I decided to see if I could get into Ooga Booga. It surely will be a challenge for me, it's a low-level language that I have no experience with, in a totally different concept afar from web development. But even then, I will try my best to go as deep as I can, to decide if it's something I can do/pursue or not. I guess this is enough introduction from me. I will use this post and the replies to report my thoughts and interesting things I come across during my learnings. ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

# The idea Since I don't know if I'm a good fit for all this, I decided to follow Randy's game 1:1 through the videos and instead of creating a complete game concept, I made a quick sketch of what I'd make after the classes were over. This will give me time to think and mature my idea if I end up making it. [here](https://assets.skool.com/f/fcaed9572f72487d8a436fdc8ab6bb14/7004133bad5f46a0a37f48ad18634351bdd82cbbc93549a394c31780c1e675de) I only faced one easy obstacle. Randy's sprite art shared in the class "Prototyping The Art" is not the same size as the one he used during the video, so I quickly resized it in Aseprite and moved on.

# Tech Setup Installing the engine went well, I'm a web dev so I know how to install vscode and git. Although, I got a bit confused step 8/9 and 10 of the "Development environment setup" class. Step 10 said to use (F3) to Run and Debug but my vscode (F3) opened the "search in file" popup when I tried, so I unintentionally ignored it since step 9 worked fine. I thought "I have to use Run Build Task, go to the build folder and execute the cmake.exe there every time I make changes, ok.". That mistake cost me a few hours because I couldn't get the cmake.exe to work with half of the pre-made examples given by the engine, I tried a bunch of stuff and even created a github issue, which was answered by Charlie who said the problem was the relative paths of the file imports in the examples, after swapping them to absolute paths, all the problems were fixed and I kept using the `build/cmake.exe`. (Besides one, the `tile_game.c` to this day only gives me an empty blue screen that I can't interact with and I still don't know why.😅). I only learned the right way after watching the class "Basic player movement" and noticing Randy was quickly running the game without even leaving vscode. That made me remember about the step 10 I skipped unintentionally, and after a quick google to find what was the correct shortcut for me (F5) I was up and running again.

Share your game design
Comment below what you've come up with for the design of your game. Ideally share 1 game that it's most similar to. p.s - If you're actually taking action on this, and have an interesting idea that's in the crafting/building/farming genres, I might just have a special treat in the DMs for ya 👀

I pretend to follow randy's game from the tutorial series to get the gist of the engine and the C programming language since I'm not familiar with them and may not be capable enough to actually make something. And if I succeed, I would like to create something like this:

Excited to be here! I live near the capital state of Brazil, Brasilia. I'm waiting for my new keyboard to arrive but didn't want to let it out of the picture, so I just added a photo of it that I had. 😅
