Creating a game is not just art and code. Playing games from the same genre contributes a lot to the game design process.

What tower defense, rimworld like, roguelite, roguelike games do you recommend? #gamedev #indiegamedev

Day 3:
Spawning some skeletons. I'm thinking RTS, Tower Defense and Strategy. Part of the fun is figuring things out as we go

The asset bundles by snoblin.itch.io look amazing. I might need to adapt them a bit for my project though #gamedev #pixelart #gameart

I consider myself an experienced programmer, but my skill level in everything art related is awful at best.

Are there any good resources on how to start with 2D art? Sticking to pixel art since I think it would be the most accessible. #gamedev #pixelart #gameart

My art skills are non existent. But even such a well made grass sprite can be fixed by a good looking color palette

If I had to choose just one book to learn from, it would be Computer Systems: A Programmer’s Perspective, and it’s not even a contest
