Yes! When you ride those days of productivity and you start to think it will be like this forever and then bam, you hit the wall. Or sometimes when I have that spark, I feel like I push myself too hard because I don't know when it will happen again and tire myself out!
24.05.2025 12:34 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I like the idea of playing with colour or a change in state to give the players some feedback. Also the concept of folders is interesting, maybe something that can be opened/closed to give the players more space to work and store things away. ๐ค
24.05.2025 12:30 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Still working on this, there's a lot of information for players in Roots and i'm battling with how to condense it down for players on the corkboard.
Open to ideas!

Inside jokes haha.

Ah, 2D mock-ups.
I will always return to your warm embrace.

Sometimes, I make games.
Sometimes, I take pottery classes.
All the times, I like geese.
(Yes It's a goose, yes it's neck too short, I tried okay ๐ญ)
Last night the Roots team celebrated finishing our games prototype. ๐ฅณ
I look forward to the future of development!
Also apologies to my team, I woke up this morning with a cold and 100% used my personal spoon in the cheesey corn. ๐

I love to do paint overs to figure out the direction of a scene
I wish creating the assets in 3D was just as easy! ๐

Sometimes I wonder if I've included too many Dachshunds in my video game.
And then I slap myself.
Because there's no such thing.

Something to consider for sure, thank you!

13.05.2025 07:09 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Here's a closer look at the texting in Roots!
I want it to feel realistic, and nothings say realistic texting more than people spamming you with multiple texts!
The dilemma: spamming = hard to read, spreading them out = frustrating for fast readers.
๐ค Thoughts?

Hey you! ๐ซต
Does your game let players input their name? How did you do it?
Here's our method, I think it's pretty neat! (also check out my super mature name choice he he he) ๐
Maybe I should add a confirmation page before it's finalised...

Game Design isn't my favourite part of making games (don't shoot me), but it's very important!๐
Here's a peek at our process for Root's corkboard mechanic.
What do you think? Tell us before it's too late, and we can only respond with:
"I simply do not have the strength"๐
