The sweaty armpits phenomenon around here makes me consider relocating

We should have more people talking about topics such as efficiency, productivity, motivation and time management in the #gamedev sphere.

Starting fresh on YouTube! Go watch the full video in my bio!

Discipline is infectious. Showing up to one healthy thing encourages showing up to another. Be disciplined in one field and apply the same discipline to #gamedev

I always thought I wasnโ€™t โ€œreadyโ€ for cameraโ€”overthinking every word, staying behind the scenes. Last week I hit record anyway. No rehearsals, just me and my work. Broke my shyness, made valuable content. First of many in my #gamedev journey.
The video will drop soon, stay tuned!

This is definitely a complement (as a Masters graduate myself): this looks amazing, so much better than the average โ€œacademicโ€ game!

This week I recruited a developer to my team on a percentage contract basis. It's always inspiring when someone else recognizes your vision and is willing to contribute to a cause that may not necessarily generate money. #gamedev

Not only I donโ€™t do reruns, I also donโ€™t watch the other endings. Life sentence my lazy ass.

Reminder to all itch users. If you enjoy something you played, let the creator know. Personally, a thoughtful comment lights me up more than a purchase.

Never been much of a coder, more of a #gamedesigner. And so I reside many times to ChatGPT, and it saves my life quite a lot. I always go over the final code to study the logic. It helps me remove the shame surrounding it.
But meh, these are all tools, and theyโ€™re there to be used.

Non-gamer game devs are a rare breed, and I think thereโ€™s something unique to their games and perception.

This week Iโ€™ve been playing with:

1. Infectionโ€™s animation single direction
2. Infectionโ€™s animation from both sides at the same time
3. Step counter - counts the amount if steps to full layout infection

I don't know about y'all, but I'm thankful every single day that video games are a part of my life.

We really do have the best hobby in the world.

Things I do when I hit a dead-end and feel #unmotivated to work on my #GameDev #project:
1. Set small, achievable goals in advance
2. Force myself back into the project, or find someone who can
3. Once inside, tread carefully with baby steps aligned to those goals

I was a little #GameDev from a young age. I enjoyed playing #Doom on my #PS1 at the age of 6. And in my spare time I designed custom levels of doom on a grid notebook. With my own definitions of monsters, potions, weapons and ammo - I knew Iโ€™d grow up to be a freak, basically. ๐Ÿ˜…

Taking breaks is crucial especially when it comes to your health. Donโ€™t blame yourself for inefficiency at times like these! Get the rest you deserve and come back killing it later.
Glad youโ€™re getting better!
