Seriously! I tired of seeing negative videos of game dev youtubers everyday. Life is tough, get a helmet and stop complaining about everything is going wrong in your life and appreciate the good things. Stop being so negative! #gamedev #indiegamedev

Believe it or not, there are at least a couple of famous solo game developers that have admitted to not use any version control.

I seriously cannot respect a game developer that talks about clean architecture and best practices and does not use any type of version control system. #gamedev #bestpractices

Resetting back to checkpoint "rewinds" everything back to its original state... Why? because I though it looked cool #sologamedev #godot and yes more #BatsWithHats coming soon

I tried moving to Godot, even made open source contributions to the engine itself that made it to 4.3. But I ended moving back to Unity because of the community management in Godot. End of the day, no engine or company is perfect.

As a solo game developer, do you usually register a domain name for your game? Or now a days is not really needed? #gamedev
