Yeah it really is a good cosplay.

Thank you fellow peanut enjoyer.

I want to start with some basic pixel art shapes for placeholder items until I can find an art style that I can make things in. Long journey ahead on the art front but I'm excited to tackle that. I think between making these videos and slowly working on the game. It will keep me accountable and motivated. Working on small goals each game dev session and slowly building it up. The song at 5:25 is Zelda - Song of Storms from Majoras Mask.

I have a comp sci degree but little dev experience. I've tried lots in the past but always got demotivated by art assets.

Thank you. I think if I can just stay consistent to some degree and work small I should be able to make something more fleshed out without even noticing how fleshed out it becomes.

Thank you friend.

Don't use it you lose it. Its the problem of having to remember too many things.

Hi Devonaxx. I didn't remove any comments. I did see a few comments pop up in my email feed from others but for some reason they are not showing up. When I search for Held for Review or comments I haven't responded to. Nothing pops up. So I am not sure if this is a UA-cam glitching out thing or not. I do see this comment though. Sorry if you thought I was ignoring you. I was not. Thank you for taking the time to help me out though :).

@@NuttyDavid That is strange indeed.. I never had this happen, but I will change my original message and give this the benefit of the doubt. It was not just a short message like most people do, it was a longer message with useful information. Just weird the other messages (that I am writing now) DO come through fine. I will try to rewrite my original message, that did not come through, again on a later time.

I've seen it happen a few times on this channel before. I am not sure if its a moderation thing or a global moderation thing UA-cam does. There are lots of times where I will see 3 comments on a video in my analytics page but when i go to see them. Nothing appears and nothing is held for review. So I have no clue. Once again sorry about your message not being seen. The only time i delete a message on this channel is when the content of the message is incredibly hateful and malevolent in nature. I will never delete anything that is of a helpful and supportive. I want to see more love in the world not less of it. Thank you for taking the time to retype your message. I look forward to reading it. :)

@@NuttyDavid I have some time right now to rewrite the message (for the most part); Hi David, So there are a few different art styles used in game development and I will name a few used by indie devs. Handpainted style (this is the one used by the game you talked about "Cat Quest") There are multiple versions of this. Another version of Handpainted style is used in World of Warcraft. It is one of the hardest styles to do right unless you have a painting or drawing/color background (or hobby). The hardest style to pull off right is realistic 2D/3D. Then there is also Voxel art, Pixel art (comes in various styles like 8bit, 16bit etc.), 3D Pixel art, Low poly stylized, Hand drawn style (don't starve or cuphead), Vector art (which can be done in isometric vector), manga art style and comic art style. to name a few.. The viewport of the game you mentioned is 2.5D isometric. It is not 3D, but the ground is on a 3D plane. the art however (rocks, houses, trees etc.) is all 2D. It's important to note that if you want to start your journey as an indie dev you start with what you know and not what you do not know. If you are better at art then coding, start making art. If you are better at programming then art, start writing code. If you take on something like this it will feel massive and seem like a long dark tunnel full of unknown things. So when you start something you are not good at, you will trigger the part in your brain that says; "see! it's hard, you cannot do it!" "if it's THIS hard in the beginning, how hard is it going to be!!" "I suck at this and there is so much to make, I can't do this!". So, my tip is to make it piece by piece.. small pieces together become something big.. it's like building with cobblestones. 1 brick is useless and doesn't seem that amazing.. but a 1000 of them can build a wall to keep things out or can become a road that allows people to go to other places. You just have to start placing 1 stone at a time. So, yeah. Do not pick the hardest art style or design your game with 50 game mechanics and sub-systems. start with the basics of that genre you want to make first, THEN start building on top of that. If you want to make a 2.5D RPG-like game then start with a single map (house, tree, stone, water and cave.) then the character and the movement. then the interaction of the player with stone and wood. then add swimmning, then add the transition so player can enter/leave the house, then add a new map for the interior of the cave. Done? Ok now add a new character, the enemy, populate the cave. now a damage system etc. before you know it you have the basics of your game and you can think about adding other things, like fishing, cooking, crafting, companion/grouping system etc. Anyway.. this message is now slightly longer then my original one. XD I will follow your progress and help out if you need it. I also wish you good luck on this journey. May the rubber ducky be with you.

Thank you @devonaxx for retyping this out. Okay so that makes sense of what the viewport is. It is a 2.5D isometric view but the ground is on a 3D plane and is handpainted. I think we are going to avoid the handpaint stuff because that is a skill i currently do not have. I am going to have to get really good at art or find some dedicated artists who want to help out. Part of this journey is I really want to take things in small bite sized chunks. It might be really slow and annoying for others to watch my progress, but I want to make sure I develop really small goals for myself, so I can stay true to my original vision, but also so I can make progress without getting too overwhelmed. I found in the past when I tried making things my scope was wayyy too big and i got too discouraged when looking at the big picture. I plan on having a very simple scope because I want this game to be cute and easy to pick up for people that are not big gamers. So minimal moves, minimal items, minimal things to learn. So part of this journey will be me having to identify what can be broken down into a small and manageable chunk and that might be some of the value I can offer when making these game dev vlogs xd. Reading through some comments I already have people questioning my decisions and attempts at learning haha. So thank you for being my rubber ducky to help guide my thought process.

I think its guh dow from multiple sources who have told me the pronounciation since releasing this vid. Go Dot seems to be easier to google upon hearing the word haha.

Oh nice it sounds easy to pick up. I know C/C++, Java and Python so I'm hoping it will be easy to get use to the syntax and concepts. Also you had me at big cum-munity LOL

@@NuttyDavid If you want to get big, don't make inappropriate jokes like this one :)

@@NuttyDavid ahahha i was on phone so i didnt speel it right. But funny joke!

Making what BIG??? >;p

Yeah im curious if that is called billboarding. Reading up on billboard sprites.

i'm hoping to utilize some pre made dungeon textures and assets until i feel confident enough to make my own or atleast modify what i have.

Good luck brother. Let me know your progress.

I have had some ppl say its 3D... some say isometric or 3/4 perspectives. whatever they did is confusing to me.

My red hat natches my red shirt drip and my blue hat natches my blue shirt drip. I get compliments irl when i match em up.

Thank you brother. I'm going to learn as much as i can and try to make really awesome games.

Thank you Robert. I feel like life can become very painful if you don't actively work towards your dreams.

I am hoping to make something absolutely nutty. Thank you very much for the subscriberino broder.

What game engine are you currently using? I am thinking of using Godot. We could always help each other out. Join the discord anyway so we can chat!

@@NuttyDavid currently using Unity, but i also did a couple of tutorial in godot

Yeah i could easily see things taking longer than expected. I am reading up on Godot at the moment and trying to figure out how to even start a project and get an object on screen. So that ill probably take 2 weeks of reading before I can record my Day 2 of Game Dev video haha.

I am trying to stay in the mindset of not necessarily completing my goal but at least attempting the journey. I would love if I could finish something but I think its the journey that matters most. I am hoping to be adequately challenged and frustrated so I can experience that relief when I finally figure it out.

Godot seems to be a much simpler engine to both use and seems to be recommended for smaller 2D games. Unreal Engine seems to be a bit overkill for want to accomplish.

Ia is not search, please don't do that.

You are now subscribed to the automatic DLC updates that cost $40 a week which offer you one half finished cosmetic and no actual changes to gameplay.

Time is just a social construct anyway, right? Happy to have you whenever you arrive!

Maybe Godot will show up in the next video!

Thank you I will need the support :)

Thank you I will need the support :)

Thank you very much Matthew. Fingers crossed I learn enough to make something great... or at least passable hahaha

I see you are a man of culture as well.

Balls, of course. Big smooth jiggly femboy balls

I see you are a man of... culture?... as well.

Blackened my old friend. How are you doing buddy. If you understand the pronunciation of how to say that game engine let me know. Asking my community and I got three different answers so it looks like nobody knows.

@@NuttyDavid I personally pronounce it as "Guh-Dough". The name comes from a French play that is pronounced "Go-Dough" in French

Yeah i think going forward I am going to call it Guh-dough. What a trip it was trying to establish an acceptable pronunciation haha

That's my latte enjoyer.

Deep in the land of the boreal forest resides a place of higher enlightenment from which I was granted access from the nobles to enter. Upon entering, I transformed from a lowly goo spawn to.... well... a slightly less lowly goo spawn. With a new found mission of making people play with my nuts...

Game is gonna make everyone go nuts

I'm already going nuts.

Day 145 I finally figure out how to make my sprite move on the screen hahahaha

Oh hell yeah ACF. What game are you trying to make?

@@NuttyDavid I'm still prototyping but i'm trying to make a story based platformer, it's in prototyping but i will document my progress overtime.

Thank you Aftercops. I'm hoping I learn all kinds of things I can share with everyone on this journey. Thank you for your support.

XD

@@NuttyDavid XD
