Make a cozy life sim rpg for your first game, what's the worst that could happen?

12 hour coding stint later... Well the microwave works..

Spent 4 hours rewriting and rewriting and thinking I had some sort of loop or logic error somewhere. Nope. It was a "Loop" checkmark in the inspector for my animated notification.

My head.

Another 12 hours of #gamedev ... Going WAY overboard on this one system still... At this point its a simulator. But I have a whole rpg to build... But one more addition to the one feature... Just... One more... #indiedev #unity2d

Another query for experienced #gamedev members: How often do you work on your game? Do you work on multiple projects at once? It seems as I get better with #unity I keep branching off. Havent worked on my "main" project in 2 weeks! Maybe it's the adhd. #indiedev #gaming #struggle
November 12, 2025 at 10:45 AM
Welp, now I've done it #gamedev community. My adhd brain now has 3 games going at once. It was cute to be worried about scope for one game. Now I'm doing 3 things at once. Send help #indiedev #unity #whoops

My biggest issue right now with #gamedev right now is feeling like it's not good enough. I show it to my friends and they are all like: "Cool!" But my mind keeps saying "This is dumb. This sucks"

Does this happen to anyone else?
It's like im trying to sabotage my progress.. #indiedev #unity #gaming

Hey #gamedev - how do y'all handle scope creep, and building systems? My systems need systems and systems for those systems on top of systems.... Please? (Help) #gaming #unity #indiedev

Started my #gamedev journey on #unity
I'm extremely excited for the future

Single player story rich games I NEED to play/finish this year:

- Red Dead Redemption 2
- Baldurs Gate 3
- The Witcher 3
- Cyberpunk 2077

What are your backlogged games that you are ashamed of not playing yet?

I fear that the internet, while incredible, also hinders younger and impressionable minds.

We need to keep reading, to keep writing, we need to provoke thought, to be in a constant state of learning.

We need to lead by example, and encourage the younger generation to do the same.

Triple A squanders opportunity by playing it safe. Look at how even the simplest of fresh and innovating game loops catapult indie games to the forefront.

Instead of focusing on the bells and whistles, let loose the creative genius' that are already within your walls.

I think you'd be surprised.

Now that players are Roleplaying more in games, could we see RPGs finally return to their roots?

I have been having so much fun RPing as a troll in WoW classic.

I think there is a big void in the gaming sphere for those who want to play pretend with their friends.

An open world game can feel empty, while a theme park game can feel endless. How you chose to deliver your content defines your game. #gaming #gamedev

What is your #indiegame of the year for 2024? #goty #gameoftheyear #gaming #games

Mine? Abiotic Factor. Such a blast with friends.

Every little piece of the world matters. Finding unexpected treasures, interactions, tidbits of lore.. It satisfies the players wonderment, their sense of discovery... it's what makes your adventure an adventure.

The content needs to be meaningful, not just abundant. #gaming #gamedev #games

Monetization: a necessary evil for most live service games. You have a choice: be honest, or be predatory. Your choice here affects the audience that you build in your community. #gamedev #theorycrafting #monetization #gaming

What have you achieved this year that you are most proud of?

For me: Finally progressing on that lingering project.
