Mall Inventory Case Study A small peek at the scalable inventory system I developed for Code Algo

open.substack.com/pub/lexicong...

I built a dynamic, scalable inventory system that powers a in-game mall. Using ScriptableObjects, new items can be added in minutes without touching the UI or scene setup.

Confetti's Cozy Corner: Black American games industry trailblazers who inspire me! - Gayming Magazine To celebrate Juneteenth, Milady Confetti shares some of the Black American trailblazers within the games industry who inspire her.

Oh look, a familiar face caps off this list 👀 gaymingmag.com/2025/06/conf...

This probably needs updating, but this is a good starter pack for talented Black folks who actively make cool video games.

Day 23: Teamwork
#30DaysGameDev
Game development is incredibly collaborative. When working with a team I follow these rules, keep your team updated about your process, give honest feedback, and give credit and recognition when it’s due!

Oh you are nailing it. My blood pressure dropped just by watching this.

Holy Ghosts! 👻
Don't you hate it when your blind date turns out to be your Grim Reaper?

I am so hyped for this project with all my heart

Day 22: Bug fixes

#30DaysGameDev
It's another round of bug fixes for the week. The best advice I have for troubleshooting bugs is:
1. Try to recreate the bug.
2. Find out what you know vs what you *assume* to know
3. If the bug touches areas you're unfamiliar with, pull in people sooner than later

Day 21: Communication
#30DaysGameDev
The more I work in collaborative product teams the more I realize how soft skills like communication, listening and empathy are vital. In game dev not everyone has the same background or frame of reference so being able to bridge that gap is a major advantage.

#30DaysGameDev
Imposter Syndrome is the absolute worst. It's still a struggle to combat it but I have 3 things that have helped me.
1. It's okay to make mistakes don't be so hard on yourself.
2. Think about your accomplishments and celebrate them. A lot.
3. Stop what you're doing and take a break.

Day 19: Interactive Map
#30DaysGameDev
If you've never built an interactive game map before it can be super intimidating at least it was for me. Another senior dev on my team showed me this neat trick where you can make a transparent image into a button to "fake" interactivity on world items. 🤯

Yay, science!

Aww FeedSpot, how considerate of you to put all of my future and current role models in one spot. 🥹

Cypher is incredible and I would be looking at this list sideways if she wasn't in here.

This is going to be really important for trans and other queer books.

Griot Anthology - Preorder by Thoughtcrime Games a zine of microTTRPGs and micro-settings from black TTRPG designers.

Day 16 - 18: Vertical slice work
#30DaysGameDev
Still working on vertical slice completion.Something ive learned is terminology is SUPER important when working with teams. For example if you call something a "level" what does that mean? Player level? Game Level? We keep a glossary to help with this!

Yaaay. I am so here for a game like this 😍

Day 10 - 15: Game Play Flow

#30DaysGameDev

This week has been centered on getting the vertical slice of our game completed. I've started to noticed aspects of the game that have been over looked. Prioritization is key here because it feels like every feature needs to be completed all at once😅

My team writing on Black Panther is looking for a Senior Writer to join us. Ideally we are looking for someone with knowledge or experience of African Culture and/or Marvel to join a team committed to creating authentic, powerful stories on an ambitious project: jobs.ea.com/en_US/career...

5 Calls Spend 5 minutes. Make 5 calls. Make your voice heard.

Okay, I cannot recommend 5calls.org enough. Enter your address and it will find all your reps (federal and state). AND give you a list of issues to call about AND which reps to call about each of them AND a little script for each, in case it's helpful. They have an app, too.
