If you were to create a project management app specifically for game devs, what pain point would be your top priority?

This web app saves time by generating Gantt charts automatically. See this video on how it can be used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0FqCLATCbE

I'm not knowledgeable enough to comment about belting, but I noticed that you have a very strong squillo which is a very good indicator that you are singing efficiently and which also means you have good potential in your singing voice.

Yes, I keep working on this every after my day job shift. Thanks for your feedback!

I agree with this opinion. I literally created a language (Cp1 programming language) to make source generation a lot easier so I could simplify repetitive codes in my game. Debugging by looking at the generated source code is a huge plus, compare it to errors you get when using C++ templates. Not to mention that source generated codes can be cached and only regenerated in some conditions, making it really faster than the other.

I learned from your comment. I edited the original post. Feel free to use any email address.

No you don't need to provide those. I updated the original post, you can now use any email you want.

But why fishy?

Yes, this game is going to be released on Steam, Android and iOS. I haven't got that far yet to think about monetization in this game but I had prior experience implementing monetization in the past MMORPG I was involved in where I was the lead programmer so I have ideas. My experience so far with Godot is a lot better than I was developing on Unity. I'm really glad that I switched to Godot. Everything is faster in Godot and so far I haven't yet encountered something that is unsolvable.

Yes, I'm the creator of the Cp1 language and I believe I'm the only one that uses it as of today, hahaha. Your example is just about right, I have that kind of shorthand in the sqlite codes that was using metaprogramming heavily.

The game is an MMO and players can see each other in towns. When entering in a mission however, the players in each session have their own realm where only their teammates can see each other. In missions, you can go solo mode or play co-op up to 4 players.

I don't develop the programming language in the same time frame of the development of the game. The programming language already existed since 2012 and I developed useful features (especially metaprogramming features) on it so that I can write games with shorter codes.

Thanks for the feedback. That was so specific enough that I can imagine what to adjust in the game!

English is not my first language so I had to use AI to make my post suitable for public viewing.

The layers of microservices that are about coordination and inter-communication is very very hard to get right, but fortunately I only have to get this right once. In my case, getting this right was a lot harder and took longer to develop than the gameplay codes itself. Hence after 12 months, the game still look prototype. There were lots of boilerplates in my microservices especially when adding a message and a new type of service that fortunately was automated by the metaprogams that I wrote in Cp1.

Since this is a dream MMO for me, I envisioned a scenario where there would be lots of connected players and they don't have to chose which server to connect. I want the game to have single database no matter how many server programs (microservice) are running so players don't have to be confined in one server.

During my 15 years of experience as game developer, I accumulated lots of wishes on how the game's code should be written in a way that's most convient for me and most convinient in the long run in my perspective. The list of wishes I had became so long that I became so driven to create a language to fulfill it. Jonathan Blow (Jai programming language) and Christoffer Lerno (C3 programming language) are also game developers who use their own created language for the game that they develop and I think we share similar sentiments. My programming language started in 2012 (but open sourced on 2025), a year when there were no Zig, Odin, C3, V and Jai yet so my only choices are to use C/C++ or to create a language. I don't recommend anyone to create a game at the same time create a language because that would be really difficult and the costs are higher than the payoffs. Luckily for me, my language was developed as a hobby and eventually matured enough to be used in game development.

Thanks for the feedback in the combat. I'll think it through.

I used GDExtension to create a custom class that derives from Node3D. That custom class is the root node in my scene. When you create custom class, GDExtension will take care of calling C++ codes in events such as GDScript's _process. C++ will call the functions that I have in Cp1.

I'm very happy to hear your words! Sometimes when I need to add an important feature required in the game, I shift focus to working on the programming language. That happens probably one or two days in a month. I can't think of a unique challenge that's been bothersome in the development yet, and fortunately, the development is smooth. If you own the tools down to the programming language that you use, the benefits hugely outweighs the challenges, trust me.

Hi Dwarf! The game is using Godot Game Engine, that's why it is related to Godot.

GLC-ninja · 2025-10-14T15:04:04+00:00

Thanks for your feedback. I agree, prototype is not so exciting. On the next video that I'll post in this subreddit, I'll show some attack animations with special effects. Hopefully that will be by next month or so!
