    Such a cool video Jonas ;D!! Being an intellectual myself, with a high dose of intellectuality within my inner intel of interactivity I agree with your final choice. Although perhaps some interaction could be made to justify the use of inter-communication and intectaaaaarulity.

    Skills required for Game development can be simplified to 3 - Design, Execution and Problem Solving.
    1. Design - understand the scope and constraints (skill,time,money) . Fit an idea that can be executed with the resources available. Design includes Story/World building, Concept Art, Game mechanic. With experience your Design can be efficient.
    2. Execution - Asset development, programming,level design. These are technical skills,all of which are individual skills but can be learned (or hired)
    3. Problem Solving - Understand challenges, find solutions. If constraints don't permit, reiterate on the design.
    This is a cyclic process. A good game developer is the one who makes good decisions MOST of the time. For every bad decision made, they will learn and adapt quickly, try to solve it and if it's not feasible, they cut their loses early on, reducing wastage of time and money. Modify the design to something more manageable. Most importantly a good game developer finishes the fakin game within the limitations rather than being an over ambitious perfectionist putting everything on the line with their life going on a downward spiral through the course of the project.

    • @JonasTyroller
      @JonasTyroller  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That's a great summary. Nice. For this video I considered design as a subcategory of problem solving but in retrospect I probably should have mentioned that. Design is an important point.

  • @JamAttack
    @JamAttack 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    one that wasn't heavily covered in this is being skilled at visual design for making things look polished and nice. of course that kind of goes under marketing, but it's also about the overall experience your game gives people. the soundtrack and sound design are important for the same reasons as well. of course you can always commission people to do these things, but even then you need to know the right time to use them, and the level design itself needs to be visually appealing. That involves things like structuring and environmental design.

    Another very insightful video! I think I I were to take favorites from the 9 presented options, it would certainly be mindset, since your behaviour pretty much depends on it, and then problem solving and communication. Everything is problem solving related if you think about it:
    - How do I make the player understand this mechanic in the game
    - How do I make people in the world aware my game exists
    - How can I convert followers or my community to actual customers

    0:30 I disagree. With visual programming and pre-made scripts you won't have much power over what you're doing. Try to make a *_really decent_* game in Clickteam Fusion 2.5.

    Hey Jonas,
    I'm working on a game and have a problem with the movement. Because if I hold down any of these buttons (w, s, a, d) while walking against any object e. G. Wall, then I will just glitch through the wall. But it is just when I walk against the wall for smth like 7 seconds.
    Would be great if you could help me out.

    • @Alche_mist
      @Alche_mist 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Might that be that you build up momentum in your movement code and after some time, you can just get so far in a single physics cycle that you don't register the wall (i.e. its collision box) and glitch through?
      In that case, add a momentum reset (velocity = (0,0,0) or something along those lines) in the 'wall-bump' code.

    @atrixiumalt3880 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would agree with mindset. It can also be applied with everyday life and struggles. Say you a a poor student who isn't an intellectual with fast learning and big brain, but you would love to make games for a living, you spend hours, days, weeks, months, years maybe even decades. In the end whether you make a fantastic game or not, you did something you enjoy, your career should be fun.
    Whereas, if you think something like "Oh, I want to make games, but I can be bothered" and if making games is the only thing you enjoy, its the same as saying "Oh, I'd like to live a life but I'd rather die"
    I also have had these problem in game development and life but I persevere and the outcome is definitely worth it
