One thing I love about game dev is no matter how daunting a project/feature looks, if you break it down enough, it's always possible.
You can be so sure that something is 'out of your skill level' and progress might be slow, but every step forward is proof that you’re capable :)

I've got a beef with people who criticise others without anything to show for themselves. There are some cases where public criticism is expected but outside of that it makes me see red and I will never hold back.

the i am your beast support group expansion drops for free tomorrow morning and someone still has to name an achievement

end my torment

(also maybe buy the game???)

Imposter syndrome never goes away. That's just your perfectionism forcing you to be better than is possible.

Best advice, pick a toolset, work with it, learn from it, get better as you go. Never expect your work to be perfect, but expect to learn with everything you do. Learning is the only goal.

Game Dev is 70% dreading working on a feature because you know its gonna be hard
20% pretending to work on everything other than that feature
And 10% realizing that it wasnt actually that hard

In other news, the basic framework for the shop is done :)

I'm revealing it for the first time here!

What's YOUR biggest easter egg, #gamedev? Come on, show us, don't be a chicken! ;)

Random question for game dev community

Are games art?

If yes, what about games with just a simple or even no over-arching story?

There's no better feeling in this world than finishing a prototype of a game and it's actually fun.

The internet has so much joy and whimsy you just gotta break free from the normality

Game dev is hard, but sitting on the plethora of ideas I have is harder

Me imagining a cool boss fight in my head and me actually making the boss fight for my game.

Silly little Mario maker type demo I made. Probably not gonna finish it, just made it to
a) practice auto tiles and platformer physics
b) scratch that itch I had to make a level editor.
I could add more stuff, like enemies and special tiles, but honestly I don't want to.

Not the best at pixel art (yet) but I'm super duper proud of how these came out :)
