Is solo game dev real?

We are all collaborating with the thousands of people who built our engines, tools, and OS.

But if you are the only one that can fix that final bug and press the release button, then you are a solo game dev! 🙂

Can you give more context?

Thanks!

Thanks! :)

Recruiting board shows 4 cards, 3 have characters that you can select. One of them has a trait Carnivore: If it doesn't scream when you bite it, is it even really lunch? First card is empty and says "Pay or go on a quest to get a new candidate" It costs 2 gold to get a new candidate

The new recruiting board ui

Just some fixes

Reworking the character stats ui. Not quite happy with it but it's at least consistent with the rest of ui now 🙂

New storehouse for the village. You can dump all your boners in there 😏 🦴🦴🦴

They still earned millions so they might be fine with it 😄

Probably B sometimes C. That's why I added some pressure to leave in my game, when night comes creatures start to spawn that make it risky staying.

Had some of that in my game tied to the inventory system 🙂

Why not make a new slingshot weapon? I had to rewrite some weapon rotation code but now we can terrorize the little critters in the forest 😈

I have an old dog and I really don't like seeing all these posts every day 😭

Thanks 🙂

I think you get used to it and it doesn’t happen that much anymore, but maybe I’m just very aware of how Im eating with all the gaps in my mouth 🙂

The new portrait ui shows what you have equipped!
#gamedev

Thanks! :)

Yep, I know that feeling. It's hard to share it with people that don't understand gamedev, they expect the game to be a polished finished product from the start 😄

Tired of doing all the ui stuff, didn't manage to finish this one today :)

A little gathering tutorial.
#gamedev

That’s right!

How many tabs did you open?? :)

When item is at max condition you get more

So many words 😄
I started with salvage. Maybe I should check the most used word from popular games.

Do the dismantle returns make sense to you?

I'm still using my old xbox360 controllers for testing on pc. They must be almost 20 years old 😄

You can have 4 character in your party and so you can open 4 inventories at the same time

Love dropships!
One thing I want to see more is big ones that can bring big tanks or giant mechs!

I think I'll just keep the orange for now, still got a bunch of uis to reskin anyways :D

Inventory reskin!

I'm just not sure what to do with that orange color around items. I had it for so long that I don't know what to replace it with, maybe I should just remove it 😄
