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!

I 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. ๐Ÿค”

Still 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!

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 ๐Ÿ˜ญ)

Last night the Roots team celebrated finishing our games prototype. ๐Ÿฅณ

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. ๐Ÿ™

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! ๐Ÿ˜‚

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.

Big thank you to @canberra.games and @nfsaonline.bsky.social for hosting Pizza and Pixels last night ๐Ÿ•๐ŸŽฎ

It was the first time we playedtested Roots, and I couldnโ€™t be happier with the feedback/response! ๐Ÿ™Œ

If you're ever in Canberra, you should check the event out!

Here'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.

๐Ÿค” Thoughts?

Hey you! ๐Ÿซต

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) ๐Ÿ˜œ

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!๐Ÿ˜…

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"๐Ÿ˜‚
