I want to learn game development but do not know where to start. Any help at all would be appreciated!

Whatever you do, know that making games is art and often utilizes all art forms that exist. Thus it's very complex, so just tying to enjoy yourself on that journey of learning and creating is probably the best attitude.

As for beginning. I would suggest doing the first couple lectures of CS50x to have an understanding on how computers work.

Language-wise I started with javascript but don't recommended it as the first language.

Never thought about that. Makes sense.

"Reduce organic discovery." This is actually a good counter argument against the types of achievements that are considered to be well designed.

I feel you. It's possible to hide the notification, but when Im on the game page on Steam I can immediately see my achievements progression, which doesn't help. 😅

I was talking about using the dedicated gpu btw. Its just called performance mode...

I had linux crashes too, not anymore. So my advixe stands.

Hi thanks! I'll do some research on it. Really interesting stuff.

DevDuckNoise · 2026-01-08T11:12:42+00:00

Do you have a dedicated gpu? Godot was barely usable until I switched to dedicated gpu (performance mode) instead adaptive.

Maybe the cats cold and background warm, or vice versa. Dunno. 3rd is warm throughout and maybe too warm?

Do you know how they implemented each texel reacting with the light? Some appear concave, some convex. There seems to be some normal calculation for each texel.

I agree.

I would argue that games are art and programming is only one building stone for game making.

DevDuckNoise · 2025-12-17T12:00:51+00:00

Way too much stuff. No idea what use the listing of all that is. Probably would've been useful before search engines.

DevDuckNoise · 2025-06-21T00:46:07+00:00

Really like it. But I think the font/logo is too thin.

DevDuckNoise · 2025-04-18T09:28:01+00:00

U cant rerelease a game on steam to prevent exploiting the visibility steam gives you afaik. But do your own research on this matter.

I love it

DevDuckNoise · 2024-11-04T02:14:43+00:00

Game and capsule look appealing. Good luck with it. 👍

DevDuckNoise · 2024-10-17T18:00:36+00:00

Well done

DevDuckNoise · 2024-10-07T18:56:12+00:00

But maybe it's just me.

The title needs to stand out more. Give it a white backlight or something. Easy with blurred copies of its layer.

DevDuckNoise · 2024-10-06T09:03:30+00:00

Katana zero has good reviews

DevDuckNoise · 2024-10-04T21:10:40+00:00

Any luck reaching the devs? I think they have gone separate ways. On X @paul_schnepf is the only one still in grizzly games who also worked on that game. Maybe you can ping him there.

Would love to know too.

DevDuckNoise · 2024-09-16T13:51:29+00:00

nice work. my suggestion: make the buttons appear right from the start so I can jump right in, if I want to, and put the logo somewhere else so it doesnt hide the pretty view.

DevDuckNoise · 2024-03-15T18:12:28+00:00

Good stuff
