What 2 YEARS of Unity Indie Game Development looks like...
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 лют 2021
- My solo unity indie game project Lumbermill has been in development for 2 years, and now seems a great time to look back at all the work done so far. This is the last 2 years of Unity indie game development in 10 minutes.

⮞ Description ⮜
It's been 2 years since I first started work on Lumbermill development in Unity. In that time the game has gone from a small hobby project to my full time job. This devlog covers (almost) everything that has been added, changed, and removed from the game, and how the game has evolved over that time.

If you're new to the channel, welcome! I'm a full time Indie Game developer working in Unity 2D. Lumbermill is my main project - a management/factory builder game, which I began work on in Feb 2019. I aim to release devlogs on that project every few weeks, so keep an eye out for those!

Someone in my discord just showed me this and I must say this looks awesome, great work! Can't wait to give it a try!
hi
Awesome! I'll send you a key when the game comes out 🙂
Yoo I watch both of you
I always see you comment on alot of the channels I watch😂
@@delta927canadien-francais5 same
I always love these videos condensing a long time in a short video, really highlights the power of consistency and how the main thing that matters is to keep at it one day at a time.
Release date this year?
Thanks, and potentially! Not ready to announce anything just yet 👀
Yas!
i love these kind of these video's too they inspire me so much, btw just wanna say i love your tutorials they help me a lot if i ever needed any tutorial i code to you or brackeys
Here's to 2 more years 🍻 !
It'll be out by then!
We want devlogs for the updates as well!
@@BWDev hello, I would also like to say that you should make the game moddable by normal players please.
@@emperorstorm3266 yes, mod support would be cool
@@BWDev maybe working on lumbermill 2 by then XD
The progress you've been making is great! Following the development of Lumbermill trough these videos has been really interesting and I can't wait till the full release!!
For once UA-cam actually notifies me less than 2 days late for a video.
I thought I saw this a month ago, but it's only a few minutes old
You probably saw the 1 year one, which had pretty much the same thumbnail and title
your comment reminded me of a progress update i'd seen about a year ago so I went back and watched it again. all i can say is i take my hat off to this guy for the quality he turns out week after week.
Darn UA-cam showing me this video exactly 2 days late
Yeah
So cool seeing this project grow! Can't wait to play it when it comes out
Congrats to 2 years! It's insane where you started with it and where it is now!
Nice work :)
I've been following your series since almost the beginning! Let's hope we have a lot more years of content like this!
So cool to see the progress throughout this video!
It's looking great! I honestly appreciate these yearly videos. They do an amazing job at showing how far game has come.
Ive followed your progress since the beginning, and you are doing great!
The level of details in this game is just awesome! Keep up the good work man
Dude you are a freaking inspiration for aspiring devs like myself
I've watched a few of your devlogs and boy, did the project come a long way. I look forward to playing it.
This is incredible. Once you take the time to think about all that you've done in a certain amount of time it hits you that you've been doing incredible. Well done! Can't wait to play it😁
So excited to give this a try! I've added it to my wishlist on Steam! I hope all the best for you.
Loving these devlogs
I love the work you are doing and your honesty in sharing the development process. Will buy as soon as available.
I love the art style so much! Great work, I'm looking forward! I am also working on my own anime indie game at the moment :)
Really enjoying the series, keep it up!
i found you early 2020, and it is GREAT how much this game grew! Looking forward to play it someday!
Holy crap, I remember watching the og video a few years ago and this just got recommended to me, i'm glad you put your all into this and are planning on releasing this game. I'll be sure to pick up a copy when it comes out and congrats on your progress so far.
Nice job Ben! Keep it up, it’s looking great
Hey, happy you are going to do it! Keep up the good work!
THANK YOU FOR SUMMING UP UR EXPERIENCE !! IT REALLY HELPS !! THANK YOU
Yoo this looks amazing!! I remember watching your 1 year devlog recap and it's my pleasure to see how much you have evolved, congrats!!! It's amazingly complex, which is to admire in a one person project. I really like the worker system and the island auto generation, not even SimCity has that so hooray!!!! Keep it up, man! Wish you the best!!
i love the dev logs keep going your doing great job and i wish you the best of luck!
congratulations! I've been loving watching your journey :)
Have you considered using rivers to move logs? It was common practice at one time, and could be an interesting feature. Probably it would be limited to fresh logs only, but perhaps it is faster and/or has more capacity versus other early-game modes of transportation? Maybe two core “buildings,” a drop-off point (there’s a real name for it,) and a sawmill which can be placed downstream which collects logs and mills them into lumber (probably powered by water wheel). It might be a simple and satisfying early-game or “starter” system that also encourages some interaction with the map geography.
Added it to my wishlist! Excited for launch!
Good job so far. Keep it up!
You're really talented man. Not only are you good with code but your also awesome at art, really looking forward to the game.
You made such good devlogs. Informative, calm but also in a way entertaining 😊 I hope I can achieve just half as good of a devlog for my game 🙈
Dev logs like this are so motivating. I can't wait to look back in 2 years and see how far I've come.
Sounds awsome, good luck dude!
Very awesome. Keep working and keep inspiring me to make it forward.
Looking at your work and your passion for this project made me smile. I don't quite know how to explain why. But, it just made me smile. Good for you. I'll keep an eye out for this game, one day! Thanks for sharing your journey.
Love the progress!
Wow, looks really good. Heading to steam and wishlisting this right away!!
Great job man! Super inspiring.
following you the last year
keep going!
I really like this project
please keep making more devlogs )
Seeing Dev Logs gives me huge amounts of inspiration. They are also suitably entertaining. I hope your game will see success and sustain your lifestyle.
Congrats man!
This looks really great! Keep going.
This is great!! Keep going!
Seriously great work dude, keep it up 😀
Congrats on the 2 years! The game is really coming along now!
Kudos to this guy. Great work!!
Wow, I watched one of your first videos back then and completely forgot about it, you've come really far! Well done man. :D
Saw this a long time ago and loved the concept. The underground system really added a lot to the idea of managing a mill. Wishlisted!
Looks amazing!
Been watching since mid 2019, keep up the good work:)
Super interesting thanks for sharing!
Amazing how quickly an entire year can just fly by! 🚀🚀 great to see that you’re making so much progress!
Thanks man! Looking forward to Atrio's next yearly review 👀
I have never seen you channel or game before but thanks to youtube recommendations I saw this video and is super hyped for the game to realese. Keep doing what youre doing and the game will be turnout great!!!
Thanks, and welcome to the channel! 😁
This game looks so fun I can not wait for it to come out!, Great work!

Congrats on two years!

I remember seeing this at the start and completely forgot about it. Nice to see its a real thing now, and I'm excited to try it out!
Happy 2nd birthday lumbermill!!!
2 Years of GameDev is huge! Great to see all the progress in one video :D
Just found your channel like a week ago and this is literally my favorite game and it's not even out yet :(
But cool to see this kind of developement that has happened to the game meanwhile
Your work is inspiring!
Man the game is looking real amazing now, I love the new mechanics as I think the last time I saw your devlogs was back in 2019 or early 2020. I'm super excited to play the game, and actually now that you have it happening on islands, I guess port mechanics and water log transportation/export would fit the game really well.
so can't wait to buy it
I just found this video through my recommendations and I can´t wait to play it, looks awesome and exactly like something I would play for ages
This is really impressive! I'm in my first year at uni doing Game Design and this is inspiring to watch. I'll be adding the game to my wish list.
Its already been two years! Crazy!
I've checked on this project every once in a while. Love these videos where a long time is condensed into short time. In a couple of months marks the 1 year of my biggest project so far. Hopefully I'll manage to get a following for it also.
Cool looking game. I would totally play this. Added to my wishlist!
I don't normally comment on things but I just wanted to say I discovered these videos yesterday and I'm so invested in this game already! Well done to you for all of this
I actually cant wait till this comes out! course i wishlisted this. 100% Buying when it does come out!
Heck yeah, can't wait for the next devlog!
Yay, 2-year HYPE!

I am going to watch this full series.And I am very excited for this game to release.
I love Lumbermill! Kepp up this amazing Content!
Glad to see where this project has come, i was one of the first i believe 2k-3k subs and this grew to something you are and you can be proud of, this has grown onto something bigger than just a project, this can be a hit-game if its worked into, anyways im here to congrats you on your journey wich is far from complete!
my 2 years where trying to learn for 1 week and then giving up
I am in this cicle now the second time but this time I will not give up.
Yeah I'm on my 3rd run of trying to learn rn and I decided to enter 3 more jams than I have the time or talent to compete in so this is fun
Amazing! The dirt edge looks good, but definitely hoping to see those rocks in some capacity
Here since the first year 💪🏼💪🏼

When I came across this video, I was like "I just watched it few days ago, didn't I?" and that was the 1 YEAR of development video. Well, time sure does fly! Amazing progress, keep up the great work. It's definitely one of my favorite projects!
7:39 - i would love to hear that from my boss
Looks nice, waiting for release :)
It's excellent to see how far this has come over the years. I'm a big fan of the aesthetics.
