Hey, Godot/gamejam fans!

I made a template to start jams and small games just a little faster!

github.com/bushmin/Nozo...

Main menu/game/pause/end screen, a couple of utils, clear structure/architecture, and a couple of bonuses for curious ones.

Feel free to use and share!

#GameDev is also this weird weird feeling, that you have done so much, you think you have as much to do yet, but in some ways, a lot of it seems already complete. #IndieDev

Hey #GameDev s, do you often consider working with illustrators from outside the game industry and how their own community can impact your game ? Like, I follow a lot of artists that make Magic Card.

All advice is bad, but not meaningless. It is good to learn how and why others do things a certain way. Then it is up to you as a creative, or as entrepreneur, to decide what you ignore and what you believe. Perspective is always valuable, but treating advice as dogma is not perspective.

Balatro only got made because the dev got bored of another game he was making. Normally I advise people to actually finish their projects, but that would have been the wrong advice here!

#GameDev is also learning you need to prototype the visual, not only the gameplay. #indiedev #Godot

#GameDev is also taking courage adding one extra important feature to your game even if it breaks everything.
