Thanks for this. This will be very useful. There is so much to learn, and honestly that’s what keeps me not sad all the time. I never really care if I drop a hobby and move into something else as it’s the journey that I find pleasure in.

Thanks for this. The resources look great and I will make those 20 games before I even begin my game.

Thanks. I guess for me I just want something to focus on and can create over time.

Not really relevant but I’m fighting depression again and I really need something to focus on.

Thanks. This is likely very true, I think Stardew Valley is a game where the dude did it all, but I guess that’s the exception and most games are collaborative efforts.

Thanks. I’ll check that resource out.

Thanks.

This is very insightful and I hadn’t really considered a design document so I’ll look into the structure of those and hash out something.

Thanks I don’t think I could make my own assets but I’ll keep in mind that you can get very good ones.

Also, that game is weird 😂

Thanks for the reply.

This makes a lot of sense, particularly I am drawn to the “start building something” and the way I interpret this could be making some basic platforms at different Z Axis’s and work on the movement for the cat, then throw it out (well keep it saved somewhere to look back to) and work on something else, like the environment or whatever. Then hopefully this will inspire other ideas and the game will grow from there.

I am going to start and see how we progress. Thanks again.

Why wouldn’t you shit on him?

I certainly would, literally.

What’s his next film?

Right. The two games I play the most are Minecraft and Factorio. Both not amazing graphically but they’re fun.

A long way gone by Ishmael Beah was pretty dark. Story of a boy soldier from Sierra Leone explaining how you get forced into it and the terrible things they did.

Uh… my bad I swear some sources said VG and not Munch.

Apologies for the misinformation.

I’m no art expert but I’d say you excelled.

Sure the window management is shit but everything else is a better user experience and it’s not filled with bloatware and ads like windows. Plus it’s Unix based.

Sadly we program with windows at work as we use C# .Net. And my gaming rig is windows as I don’t got time for Linux, but I would take a mac at work all day over windows.

This isn’t really true.

Apple, at least here in the UK, give a 1 year warranty as is the law and anything repairs that need doing that are not the fault of the consumer (ie dropping and breaking the screen) are covered under this warranty. Furthermore, if there is a problem with a line of products then they will extend the warranties to cover that issue for a longer period of time.

You can pay to have AppleCare+ which will extend this warranty and add on accidental damage too.

There are plenty of legitimate reasons to shit on Apple without having to make up new ones.

Also, iPhones are a lot cheaper than they were a few years ago and they’re cheaper than their Samsung counterparts when comparing Pro vs Pro, etc.

Source: Worked for Apple for 3+ years and I’ve consumed many of their products, although I now only have an iPhone. For what it’s worth MacOS is infinitely better than windows.

Is this based on that famous painting, is it called Scream?

Edit: For those interested it’s Edvard Munch Van Gogh - The Scream.

Voyager in iOS works fine for this.

See my skinny duck.

They love Top Gun.
