The kickstarter page is INCREDIBLE. Fantastic job to David- best of luck on getting Little Nemo funded! Game looks amazing too. The style is awesome.
Congrats on the Kickstarter David!
i am 14 and i have 5 years before i finish high school so in that time i am learning c# and my 12 years old brother and my 14 years old friend are also getting into C# and we'd like the tips from you older people with experience, in what to be prepared for and what not.
You have so much time dude, try different engines, game genre, make mistakes as much as possible , try to aim above your capabilities.
What to expect is many unfinished projects, constantly jumping from project to project, a gap in between like two months not touching your game or losing motivation. It's all the part of process.
People say don't aim for to big of idea but you will still aim to make an open world and leave it in between coz it's too ambitious. I'd say make a open world game and fail, try to do everything by yourself making art, music, programing and you will find what you are good at.
Thanks
That's so cool! I'm doing the exact same thing! (I'm not very old so you don't have to take my advice) I would say just keep learning and making games! If you make a great game, the most important part is marketing so having a youtube channel is probably a good idea especially since you're young and have a lot of time. If you put in the time and energy you can probably do it!
@PASHA i amazing with art, that why when i switched to unity i wanted to start coding before anything else but my art will still need to be improved along the way too but thank you
@@dragontailsb1971 yea ima try make a UA-cam channel and just show off my work and keep practicing and then i will be announcing games that i am making like devlogs
@@godofnoobs1597 thanks man that helped a lot, i am hoping in failing in most of my games and learn as i go forward
Little Nemo movie, great childhood memories!
I tried the fulltimegamedev subscribe and then listening to it on spotify.. but like 2min in just ended up coming here because there was so much "if you can see on my screen here" that really made it for a better visual experience to me a long with showcasing the kickstarter page and everything. I don't know how it'll do in this format for audio only, but I really like it as a video podcast showcase.
For David, amazing work. I'm not gonna lie as soon as I heard little nemo 2d metroidvania I instantly remembered the nes game (and mario 2 variant/rip) and was like oh no watchout for copyright, but as I listened further with it being referenced to the original story I was like ah ok yeah it'll be good. I agree with everything Thomas said about the kickstarter page being amazing, wish I had money to donate myself, but I do wish all the best luck with it.
The amazing thing about this is not only get your game funded but finally done outside of your comfort zone…congrats!!👏👏👏
As allways you should ask them how much they got in revenue and whether it did worked out for them as they wanted or not ,it really helps others to value this.👌😊
I love how authentic Thomas Brush is and how he's always there for the ppl watching and elaborating stuff to the viewers if maybe they didn't get, Very cool guy.
These conversations are great! Keep them coming!
I'm wondering how nobody noted that the Kickstarter language was actually German (Deutsch), not Dutch (Nederlands). A very nice conversation, thank you, guys and good luck to both :)
This game NEEDs to be done! It just looks so promising, it has everything for it. It will be awesome
looks awesome. I was listening to this and thought I already backed this project but I guessed there was another Little Nemo project earlier funded. it's cool how you both can take the same IP and both have some cool takes on it .
Hey all, if you wanna check out the Kickstarter I'm working on, you can find it here:

Thanks for joining the podcast! Was so fun!
Dave, I’ve known you all my life. You are a brilliant person. Whether as an artist and now developing video games. I’m planning on supporting you on kickstart because I believe in you. I don’t have any young children but probably can find a child that doesn’t have much going in his or her life. Hopefully giving that child some enjoyment in a sad world.
The kickstarter honestly looks so good.
awesome came across this game loved the artstyle and death implementation very creative and congrats on the kickstarter david
Litte Nemo Guardians of Sumblerland Will be awesome
Dave is the best!
❤️
My Kanban board is Excel lol
I find it so weird that no one have pointed out that there was a game for eight bit Nintendo with the same title just no one references this, it’s kinda shady to just rip off the concept and hope that no one notices
Not live chat! Awesome!
Love it! :)
I've made many custom render processes for shadow maps and light ray color changes. Including some games and simulations.
wonderboy 3 is the best game ever made. By far. As a solo dev, coder, animator and graphist, I agree that the remake is a masterclass. They went straight to the assembly Master system code to redo it. The problem of framworks like unity is that, to make real games, the engines are actually more of a pain that just creating your own engine. Especially for steam / switch games. Now regarding 3D, unity or UE make sense, but for 2d, you cannot make a game using 1 their own physics engine (including collisions), 2 their layout tools. It s way too nooby
Yeah, I also over engineer my game, but my game definitely needs to be scalable
Yeah man the art is right on par with that dragon game !
Apple Podcasts link?
Procreate is such a great app. Has not a bad learning curve. Layers export directly to Photoshop psd files. Lots of tutorials here on yt.
Niiiice
British Thomas is so funny
Uh, what about the 90s game "Little Nemo: The Dream Master"? 🤔
Yeah that seems a little too close… would this be a problem?
Also wondering if it's inspired by Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland.
it's public domain now I believe
Was thinking the same. Maybe he should add that to the “inspired by” list , probably embarrassed that he lifted the name and the concept
I was hoping David would actually give a number on savings before you quit your job but he dodging the question like Matrix 😞
Tower Defense.
What…is happening?
Was that a South African accent? 😂
I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be an Aussie accent.
@@RobinRhombus2 Needs a little work :D If you listen to how folk speak in District 9, it sounds closer to that
@@redpandacreations I'm not saying what it actually is, I'm saying what it seems like it's supposed to be.
@@RobinRhombus2 I know, no worries
@@redpandacreations @Rhombushead 2 FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT
I can't hear the girl with the glasses.
