      change the thumbnail brother , so more people can watch , and ya quitting is not good bcz it can be done this : make a big scope game and time to time leave that game and make small games but the main focus will be the main game

      4:18 I think it’s bad bc u do something that happens for Duolingo for example, you just do a lesson to save your streak and quit. And you never learn anything. I have a 280 days streak on Duolingo but 50% of the days are just a lesson per day and I don’t really progressed for a while.

With experience or leetcode you shall know thy way of runtime lol. Never give up man. I trust that you will become great!

    The last tip is the most important. You have to find the balance between good code and writing it fast. If you write trash you'll regret it soon as your project becomes an unmaintenable mess, but if you try to write the best code you'll lose weeks doing the work you could've done in a day with no real benefits.

  • @Sicho84
    @Sicho84 26 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    Making your game feel good also means skewing the odds in favor of the player. For instance, when designing a hitbox for an enemy, it's better to make the hitbox slightly larger, making the enemy easier to hit, rather than too small and frustratingly difficult to target. When in doubt, always prioritize making the game easier for the player, not harder.

    my advice: scope high not low, for everything except graphics. (don't be shy to buy assets, but pls not low poly, learn that urself)
    don't think "this game will not be the next big thing but i think a few ppl will play it"
    attempt the next big thing.
    don't make a game that looks generic and simple
    manor lords is the best example for a successful indie game

    • @LordParcyval
      @LordParcyval 10 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      @alex.starostin yup. make your dream game, and during the development, every time you need a feature, you learn how to do it (learning by doing)
      also, work on a 2. project at the same time so you never get bored out burnt out, and you don't face the problem of not seeing the flaws of your own game because you are looking at it every day 24/7. At the same time use your advanced knowledge you gained from making the main game in the 2. one. The 2. game is smaller and will be published first and will give you motivation to continue

    @gendalfgray7889 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    1) Start game development now
    2) Scope low and lower than that, it takes too long
    3) Quitting a game is OK if you scoped game too large
    4) Actually finish something
    5) Stop copying tutorials, quit tutorial hell
    6) Cycle through workflow, if tired of one thing do other thing
    7) Make a gamedesign document
    8) "This but that" rule, if you can't make idea take something that was done and change it a little
    9) Make marketing a priority
    10) If you in up for money give up now, there is no quick money in gamedev
    11) Game engine doesn't matter.
    If you making simple game, but if you want something technical look for UE, you can modify it's code freely, join comunities for help.
    12) Make your game feel good first
    13) don't take criticism personally
    14) failure is a good thing, thats how you learn
    15) save and document everything you make
    16) execution more important than idea
    17) you have to be licky but luck is not everything
    18) stick to a style
    19) prototype your game
    20) find balance between robust and duct tape

  • @jomesias
    @jomesias 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Thanks for the tips! Though the thumbnail was super negative lol! I have a bachelor and master degree in systems design and game making came “easy” because I knew how to program already(I’m a full stack dev). So once you know programming, making a game isn’t hard, it’s just time consuming! I’ve had a more rough time dealing with JavaScript and Angular 😂😂😂 than dealing with visual Blueprints.
    IMO making the gameplay is programming, so you will either become a programmer or hire one to make your gameplay!
    Ether way, it’s best if you also know programming to review the gameplay code yourself!
    Programming isn’t easy, you master after at least a couple of years! Even if it’s visual script or in typed code it’s about learning to program in the end.
    Then you must also do the art and other tasks for your game lol
    You’re basically a project manager 😊
    My advice: buy assets and use them as placeholders, develop your gameplay and you have a game! You can always replace the meshes art etc later! Then it’s about adding the final touches: like camera shakes, cinematic camera changes, polished particle effects, etc! Good luck!

  • @willowallen4688
    @willowallen4688 20 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Different pixel sizes and "too many colors" isnt a hard and true rule. Case in point: Clangen. Its a warriors fan game that is very popular in its target audience. Theyve got some pretty nice pixel art for their ui and theyve got different sixed pixels in them that apparently no one has noticed but me. Bugs the crap out of me, but no one else seems to really take notice and the art looks good regardless. I guess just as long as you are selective where you put your differently sized pixels then you'll be fine. As for the "too many colors" part of the argument, the base game itself is actually fine and doesn't go over board. Its the mods that really take the colors to the next level, adding more and more colors and giving the sprites more complex shading. And people in the modding community for that game love it! Just really depends on what you want to do. If you arent very good at art and can only really do coding, then stick to same pixel sizes and simple colors. Otherwise, go crazy with it!

  • @captheobbyist6434

    i am really experienced in coding, and i consider myself a good programmer.
    but, i never acrually finished any games.
    yes, i made some apps for mobile or some websites, i learned a lot throughout my 4 years of learning how to code.
    but i have nothing to show to someone. i think i tried making a game once but i never finished it?
    i was making a lot of prototypes a few years ago, then i switched to learning how to make websites.
    now, i think it, is time to get back to game dev and make a game i will truly be proud of.

    I'm can't agree with some, like watching tutorials, is one of the best thing to do for learning tip from other.
    Marketing priority, it depend... So, to me it's clearly not a priority.
    Engine doesn't matter?! Yeah it does, and a lot.
    Some tips are just common sens, some other are none.

    wdym there are less tutorials for UE? youtube is full of them, epic forums are bursting from answers to every possible question.

    • @Gambit-YT
      @Gambit-YT  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I found most tutorials were pretty bad when trying to learn the engine. Tried an official one and it was like 45 minutes of making the scene look nice before actually making the game. It was useful and I learned a lot but customizing materials, foliage, normal maps, etc felt very bloated for a beginner tutorial. A lot of YT ones didn't explain anything, or were incomplete. I had to do a lot of sifting before finding tutorials I was happy with. Hard to compete with Gwizz and Brackeys! Kekdot seems to have some really nice tutorials, but not quite what I was looking for. This was just my experience!

    • @devinkipp4344
      @devinkipp4344 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​@Gambit-YT 100% agree. I actually took the most recommended course for unreal, spent 100 hours studying and building with it. I did learn a lot, but when it came to actually making a game? Didn't go well, I wanted to use cpp with unreal because I dislike visual scripting but the learning material for that is very limited.
      Unity is quick and easy to pick up and it feels like it has a better structure for learning imo.
