  • In this video, I made a video game without using a keyboard at all! How is this even possible? How do you program? How can you make a game without programming? Or do you somehow find a way to program with just the mouse? How do I subscribe?
    All these questions might be racing through your head, but I'm not going to tell you because spoiling it now would be ruining the fun. (but if you don't know how to subscribe, click this link: https//ua-cam.com/users/WillHessGameDev?sub_c...)

    Making a video game with only your mouse was very hard but very fun. This challenge was completed in the unity game engine and I did 2D game development. 2D game development was harder than usual because I only had a mouse to program with. It is Halloween so the video game that I, the indie game developer, developed with indie game development. This game development challenge was very tricky.

    This video is amazing, especially for a new channel. I can see great growth for this channel in the future. Most of the things are spot on: - Nice idea, fun to watch, never too boring or repetitive, nice editing as well.
    Your 392nd sub, can't wait for you to blow up. You kept me hooked all up till the end.

    The sacrifices you do for content. Or if you liked the challenge I can only say I don't want to end up in an only mouse situation.

    It's funny how making a game without a keyboard turned out to be a game of its own.
    You had to adapt to certain rules in order not to Lose. (Oh my God I'm so glad you didn't Lose 🙂!)
    And I think that you CAN make games and make them fun with that approach; unless, of course, you can't do that.
    Something like a GameJam could shed some light on how limitations generate possibilities.

      Yeah I love game jams, and funny story, I was planning on doing a video on a game I would’ve made for the ludum dare 51 game jam, but for some reason I thought it was the last weekend of October and not September, soooo I thought I’d just do a fun challenge instead of nothing. Thanks for watching!

      @@WillHessGameDev Yeah bro you've been sleeping on the uploads lately. So no problemo, sir.
      These thoughts came to me since I've spilled milk on my keyboard and wanted to try what I could do with my computer with just the mouse. Cool timing imo.

    I actually program (not games) without keyboard because I can't use it because of disease (SMA). But I use onscreen keyboard. I programmed some software to help me play games that can't be played only with mouse.

      Oh wow, that awesome that you found a way to program and play games! Hopefully your method is easier than copy and pasting with a mouse macro. Thanks for watching!

      ​@@WillHessGameDev forgot to mention that I decided to learn programming after I lost ability to use a keyboard. I watched some videos about game developing and started making a game but then I realized that I need to learn some programming. Since that time (about 3 years) I didn't come back to gamedev, but your channel motivated me again and maybe I'll install Unity again 😄Thanks for really nice vids!

      I'm not sure if I fully understand your question but I was using unity hub version 2.4.2 and it works fine on my computer. If you updated it and its not working I'm sorry but I don't know how to help, maybe look on unity's website to see if you can download older versions.

      I know! I’ve been thinking about how I’d be able to do it with no mouse. With no keyboard I can use copy and paste, so I can get around no typing, but idk how I’d get around no clicking with the no mouse. I have a graphics tablet I could use but I feel like that’s kinda cheaty. If you have any ideas let me know!
