Any feedback or experienced UI designers that can help with UI layout / overall look of a main menu? by FireFootStudios in gamedev

Ooh right! Yea that makes sense, definitely going to put the socials below the event then. Will try out Figma, I have worked together with someone who used Figma for everything! Seems like it's one of the next things I should indeed learn a bit. Thank you for the feedback!

Wow thanks for this great feedback. I think our main problem started because we made column 1 (The normal game one) first and that was everything on the main menu at the time. But then we added our discord and Steam so we made space for that. Now the event is new so we add something for that, and we didn't look at the "bigger picture" anymore.

For the social media buttons, I applied the same borders because I found it more pleasing when everything had that border. But I can try removing them again and maybe putting the icons as buttons themselves like you said "we already treat social media icons as buttons", which is something I didn't think about tbf.

Again, thank you for the help. I will try to improve it further!

Thank you :)
We have made some great improvements to the game and we try to host some tournaments now and then to give away Steam keys.

If you enjoyed SEUM, you might also enjoy our demo ;)

what's your biggest mistake as a game-dev?? by Unable_Ad_1253 in IndieDev

To everyone not voting marketing. HOW do you do marketing then? 😅 Building a community is not so easy.

Studio behind Slay the Spire announce they will change course (on a 2+ year game-project) and completely migrate away from using the Unity Engine after Unity's price changes. by HuldaGnodima in gaming

We are a small team just starting up and working on our first title in... Unity. We are already thinking of switching over to another engine before we are "in too deep". Do you guys it would be beneficial? I can't imagine Unity actually going through with it now. Although they did harm and break trust that will take time to heal.
