Working on some new VFX for bonuses! ๐
I made two different effects
1๏ธโฃ Sweeping Glow effect
2๏ธโฃ Running Border effect
But I can't decide which effect is better ๐ง
What do you think, 1 or 2? ๐

Trying to set up ads โ Day 1 ๐
Today I decided to try something new: IronSource. Instead of ads, I got bugs, problems, and fatal errors ๐คฏ
So... today was a fail. Tomorrow I will try again! ๐ช
#IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #MobileGameDev #IronSource
Finally back to development! ๐คฉ
I added an info panel to the game. Now for each card you can see:
โน๏ธ Name and description
๐ฆ A short video instruction
โ What do you think about this update?
#IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #MobileGameDev
Working on the tutorial for my idle clicker ๐ฎ
The sequence now includes:
๐ธ Collecting resources
๐ธ Completing quests
๐ธ Selling resources
๐ธ Upgrade cards
Do you think I'm showing too many steps at once, or is the flow clear? ๐ค
#MobileGameDev #GameDev #MobileClicker #UIUX #incremental
Start work under tutorial for game ๐ค
While I did only part where show how connect cards. But make this tutorial is very hard๐ Sometimes I don't know how something realize this or that part ๐ตโ๐ซ
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #indiedev
I changed a workers' logic! (again ๐
)
So, early on, to one card you can connect several workers. Now you can't - one card can connect one worker.
But I added a workshop to which can connect three workers that will work together ๐
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #indiedev
For your understanding of how much developers are lazy: I balance quests for my game, and so that I don't calculate all values manually, I wrote a program that does it instead of me ๐
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #indiedev
Numbers, numbers, and again numbers ๐ตโ๐ซ So many bugs which related to calculation because of which my head is spinning...
Well... I at least today generated a cover for my game ๐
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #indiedev #AIart
I added offline earning in my game! ๐ต
Now if you are not playing the game for some time, then when you return to the game, you get some amount of money and resources during your absence
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #indiedev
Changed UI design ๐ฑ
I added new sprites, used a new font, and added UI animations. And now my game looks better, and it looks like the project is already done for release๐
What do you think about the new UI design?
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #indiedev
Changed building logic ๐ญ
Earlier they make one material in a certain time. Now for they work need connect to them worker card ๐ทโโ๏ธ
What do you think about this change? Which system better: old or new?
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #indiedev
I added animations to UI elements in my game ๐ฝ๏ธ Now it looks smoother and more pleasing to the eyes ๐
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #indiedev
I integrated Firebase into my game! Now I can gather data about game progress and analyze it to make my game better ๐ Or just watch for you ๐
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #indiedev
Besides a bunch of errors, the new update has many bugs with calculation and UI... I don't know how to fix them all ๐ตโ๐ซ
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #indiedev
About that much I gotten errors when starting develop new game update ๐
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #indiedev
I balanced quests for my game ๐ Now they are arranged in order from easiest to hardest. But the further you pass the game, the better the reward becomes. ะกan you pass them all? ๐
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #indiedev
A little systematized game's quests. Now I must order it from easy to hard so that it makes game progress more interesting ๐
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #indiedev
I asked Gemini generate me icons for storage, worker and trader . How do you think they are good or bad? ๐ค
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #AIart #indiedev
Now big numbers are not a problem ๐ I wrote logic that converts numbers to strings that are easier for players to understand. For example, 10000 = 10k. What do you think about this feature? ๐
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #indiedev
Finally! I added an audio system to my game ๐ What type of music or sounds do you expect?
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker
Since I am not good at drawing, I decided to generate icons for my resources by Gemini. And I think this looks cool ๐ What do you think?
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #AIart
I added pitch zoom to my game ๐ Now I can look at all my card's tree when it will become big ๐
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker
Rebalance, rebalance and again rebalance ๐
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker
Working on massive numbers for the project! ๐คฏ
Game balance led to numbers bigger than max program values. So I creating custom data type for huge numbers with +,-,*,/ operations. Addition works! ๐
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker
Save system completed! ๐ฅณ Now preserves card tree, game statistics, multiplier, storage resources & active quests. Game restart resets all to initial values (prestige excluded). What should I work on next? ๐ค
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker #SaveSystem
Card tree save system complete! ๐คฉ Cards persist with positions, types, levels & connections ๐ฑ
#MobileGameDev #IndieGame #GameDev #MobileClicker
Finally completed this multi-day task! Added quest system to the game - earn extra money for completion & get guided through game progress. More quests = harder challenges but higher rewards๐คWhat quests do you expect in the game?
#gamedev #mobilegamedev #clicker #indiedev #mobileclicker #clickergame
