I'm currently working on a new Diablo-inspired idle game. 👹⚔️ Does it already give you Diablo vibes, or what would you change/add to make it feel more like Diablo?

What AI tools are you using for game development? Here are a few I’m experimenting with or leveraging that have worked well!

I'm basically a newbie here and I've currently been using the Claude Code extension in VS Code and AntiGravity to work on a project, which means I have all the files in a folder on my computer and it's using Pygame as the interpreter to load the game. After I've seen some of the projects shared in this group, though, it makes me wonder if I'm taking the longer, more difficult route right now, because I know I'll have to have a bunch of different asset files in order to improve the graphics and do things like that, so I'm wondering if there is a better way to start out as a beginner in order to create some better-looking games. So far, all I have is this very rough-looking first workable iteration, and I started looking for ways to create sprites and other graphics to replace the placeholders for the troops in this turn-based strategy game. What is everyone else using for creating games? I know Lovable is supposed to be a good option, but I'm not sure how much control you would have over managing and owning the code. I'm open to learning anything and everything I can on this, so please don't hesitate to share your knowledge and experience and help me figure out the best starting point. I really appreciate anything anyone can provide! Thanks guys!

Hey I'm Nathan, I'm working on a Turn-based Strategy game, inspired by Advance Wars, just as a first attempt at a more complex game than Nibbles (the first one I made in about 20 mins lol). I have some minor experience with coding. I have studied Python off-and-on again for several years, but have never had the motivation to dig in deep and spend the real time it takes to get good at it. Now I'm using Claude Code to help me get past that early barrier to entry. I don't yet know what my "dream game" would be that I'd want to build, but I know FPS games are my favorite, and I'm just excited to think about having a great game that I can be proud of building. 😁 Thank you everyone for this great community. I'm really excited to be here!

I’m looking for a few Android testers for my new small satirical mobile game “Merz Leck Eier”. 🥚🐔 Quick context for non-Germans: Friedrich Merz is the current German Chancellor, and “Leck Eier” is a dumb German wordplay around “lick eggs” / childish political satire. Step 1: Join tester group: groups.google.com/g/nootcode-tester Step 2: Become a tester: play.google.com/apps/testing/com.merz.leckeier Step 3: Download the game: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.merz.leckeier The game is currently only in German, but the core gameplay should still be easy to understand. I mainly need people to install it and keep it installed for around 14 days so I can pass Google Play’s testing requirement. Any help would mean a lot! 🙏
