I need a set of replacements bellows but the site is sold out, is there another option?

lol that victory stretch

You Can (Not) Escape The Loop

My favorite part of this was how successful the 'Link running away from his problems' was on youtube, something about these silly experiments really resonates with the people!! We love to see it!

All the best things have an end. nothing endless has ever been good.

This whole thing reminds me of the game: Getting Over It

Try smbx2 tho Basically pokemon essentials for super mario games

Hey as a game dev I wanna say that making levels, however you do it, is super informative. Sure, coding is learned by coding, but you made all these cool video game levels, you worked out the pacing of the challenges, the aesthetics, how to mix and match mechanics. There’s something valuable in all that. Also yeah, I know what it’s like to cut something short, either dropping it or polishing what’s there. It’s never easy but a perpetual learning experience at least, so it’s never a waste! Cool vid man

i have no idea who you are but this video is surprisingly well made and thought provoking. great job!!

I think the developers of Silksong need to hear this message

Pretty insightful. Its always difficult for me to change scope in a project but nothing beats the satisfaction/relief of completing a project

congrats on the subscribers! I like the honest take on motivation and how it isn't necessarily a catch all but this is one way that you got over indecision and fear. Also appreciate how self aware you are with how you are feeling during the process and how you communicate those feelings along with the process. Good stuff!

You have no idea how badly I needed to see this video.

sometimes we need to make like 4 or 5 new compasses

I worked on a Mario hack for several years, and one day took a break. I always intended to go back to it. That was 15 years ago.

I'm making my second hack myself. When I heard the number 34 I said "WHAT" out loud, haha. My first kaizo hack (Sauna Mario World) had 15 exits and it took me almost two years to get it to the point where I was completely happy with it. Nice video and congrats on your release!

I learned this lesson the hard way when I worked on my first major game project in GameMaker Studio. I wanted to make a platformer type game, with 4 playable characters and 16 levels. I also wanted it to be more polished than the average first game project. In hindsight, I definitely set my goals for the game way too high. >_> After a long time of developing and redoing things many times, I started getting burnt out. The game had quite a lot of progress, but I couldn’t bring myself to finish it. For a while, I felt like I HAD to, or else my efforts would be wasted. Finally, I decided to stop worrying about the game. I left it as a learning experience. With my newfound knowledge of how GameMaker works, as well as a lot of art and music practice, I’ve been working on a much smaller game. This game will only have one character, and 5 levels. It’s not that far along, but I’m just going to take a stab at it every now and then. Hopefully I can finish it. ^^

Bonkers how the universe knows what to put in front of you exactly the moment you need it, if you’re willing to open your eyes. It feels like you made this video specifically for me, friend. Thank you for posting it 🙏 🕊️➕❤️

I keep coming back to wanting to make games because I have so many ideas, and every year I get closer and closer, but my ADHD really holds me back as I always move onto something different. It means that stuff never get's finished, but I do hope that later in life that calms down and I start to notice that I finish a lot more longer lasting projects ♥

This video is gonna get hundreds of thousands of views soon.

In 2021, I made a whole game on Mario Maker 2 (ID: 67M-GR0-PYF), and it took a good chunk of my life. Even when it was "done," I felt like more could be added, more could be polished... Eventually, you have to step away from those things. It's something I still struggle with today. This video resonated with me!

I see Windows, I leave.

If you jump into making your own games, one of the biggest things I can suggest is hitting up one of the discords out there and find some other people who are willing to help. It's definitely a different skill from working alone, but you'd be amazing at how quickly you can put some of your ideas out there once you get a couple more people on board. I struggled in solo game dev for 5 or 6 years working on different projects and abandoning them when I got tired of the scope, but I've been working with a group of people for almost a year now and things move so much quicker. There's never been a better time to jump into game dev.

Loved this. Nice work

As someone that co-dev'd a pretty extensive Pokemon romhack, "I hope you hate it and then love it and then hate it then love it again" sure is the name of the game haha. This is awesome, can't wait to check it out and the commentary itself is really relatable; over-blowing the scope can be so hard to avoid, our hack ended up being pretty technically advanced which we're proud of but at the cost of a half a decade of dev time, so so much time for original projects kinda got swept to the wayside.

this just kinda popped up on my homepage, but damn can i relate. i make minecraft modpacks every so often, and always go from a decent sized list of stuff i wanna change to barely doing a quarter of it since everything takes forever. it's partially my own fault for still barely knowing how CraftTweaker and KubeJS work (i've used the former for over half a decade and still only do very basic recipe changes lmao), but another part of it is java being stupid as fuck (alongside my brain), which prevents me from adding the obligatory "custom mod that changes shit" every real modpack has. in the end, i just kinda give up for a year or two until i randomly feel like updating or working on one of them again (even now i've been planning a big final update for all the 1.12 packs, and a big one for the first pack i ever made that'll remove all the super-cringe descriptions for things and simplify the quest system as a whole). and with the recent drama that's randomly popped up, i've just kinda dropped one of my longest-lived hobbies. The modding community is fracturing before my eyes, and i don't really care. I'm just annoyed that it makes me have to do extra work just to make a damn modpack.

Better plan: never make the romhack and just fake it.

For me it was when “what if we did this cool thing” turned into “the thing is at 98% optimization, it needs to be 99 or I’m deleting it” lol autism much?

Excellent video. Back in 2012 my high school had a special class where pretty much our only goal between January and May was to pick a project, finish it, and present it. I chose Mario ROMhacking since I thought that would be a really interesting place to look at those vanilla levels and figure out what makes them work so well and try to recreate it. This was years before Mario Maker so SMW ROMhacking was probably the easiest way to make a 2D platform at the time. It ended up being way less ambitious than I had hoped because of the steep learning curve and time constraints but I ended up presenting a pretty decent six levels that each had a theme, some direct inspiration, and everyone who saw my project wanted to play it themselves. Actually being forced to abandon it for the sake of a project made it way easier to just publish and move on with my life.

This video helped. Thanks :)

Beautiful video, I think every creator/artist should watch this!

This video is amazing. Very inspiring. I started my own video game studio last year. For this exact reason. I want to put what I care about out there.

Love this. Thanks for sharing :)

How would you recommend to constrain a project? Like just as a general rule of thumb. Its a personal project, you have basically infinite time to work on it, no real deadline, and no real end point. How do you take that kind of nebulous concept and compress it down into something that is constrained to have that "compass"? I guess what im asking is, if you did it again, how would you scope out this project so that you only needed the one compass? How might you think about a project to try and make it only serve your direct needs from the start? Or is the idea here just to sort of be ok with doing less than your original goal?

Any ideas as to how dismantle a lens from a lens board that was incorrectly assembled? Having not shot 4x5 in a long time I accidently put my adapter ring on the opposite side of the lens board. Right now it looks like: Lens- Shutter- Ring Adapter- Lens Board- and finally the rear element, which makes the entire assembly loose.

I am chronically ill and haven't been able to finish any of my long term projects as a result. So this kind of is bittersweet to me, I'm unsure what to do at this point in my life because I feel like it's already basically ended. In a way I can attribute this both to my projects and my life. I often philosophize about similar things but just lack the words to express it. (I don't often think using language) Interesting perspective piece though.

i have so many projects that were abandoned. Massive minecraft builds, game challenges, and recently, im trying to get into blender. And it always starts out with so much optimism and hope, but then i realize that the scope of what i want to do is just too great for my current mindset and energy and motivation, and they all end up utterly abandoned. And they sit in the back of my mind forever. Sometimes i just want to throw together a half assed thing to "finish" the project and call it a day, but my brain would know that it wasnt "finished". It would be rushed just to call it finished. So, when a project is abandoned, is it considered done? Or are you just done with it?

I love how you used Lunar Magic to make the visuals for this video. And damn, this hits sooo close to home! My head is a treasure trove of ideas that I think are pretty great and would benefit a lot of people, but feel like they'll just be stuck in there forever. The most difficult part of any project is just getting started with it, but the second-most difficult part setting a realistic scope - or, if not that, knowing how to deal with scope creep and reduce scope as it becomes unachievable. I'm exceptionally horrible at all of these things, and many of my past projects have already died to this. I still have the will to create. I still want to achieve at least some of those projects. I just haven't found the way yet to do that within my own personal limits yet.

I just finished my first game (for Sega Master System though, not SNES) and knowing when to move on was definitely something that I learned through this process. Realizing what you're capable of if you push yourself, and realzing what you can actually reasonable get done to take a project to the end are two very different things, and knowing where and when that is is the most important thing to know for sure

Philosophers aren’t gone, their all just playing smw

i love this video, thanks for making it :)

a channel with 1000> subscribers making niche content that vaguely peaks my interests and keeps me hooked the entire time. this is why I love youtube

I'm mot smart enough to join the conversation so I'm just gonna smile and nod.

As a musician, this video spoke to me and came to me at the right time. Please make more!

stellar vibe on the thumbnail

I've learned that when speaking about game dev (or art in general), you will never have a project finished. You just get to a point where it is acceptable, then abandons it and move on. That's the healthy way to do it.

3:30 I SEE SOME VEEEERY FAMILIAR COORDINATES ON YOUR PINBOARD... let's warp to them and see what happens ;)

i also tried to make a romhack, and somehow managed to create something beyond human comprehension. nice video
