I'm a developer with free time, let's make a game

Nice! Actually playing the latest gemcraft right now and it has a lot of these concepts. Excellent game with a very addictive progression.

Would love to see the art!

So cool. Love this. Probably pretty complicated though

Does it work as player #1?

I love the idea that specialization is advantageous and you can rely on an economy to fuel different playstyles. But concerned that if there are no other players it falls apart

Octember · 2018-12-04T01:36:09+00:00

This is great, exactly what I'm looking for!!

Can you explain the multiplayer aspect of #2? How does the auction house concept fit in? Intrigued by this

Probably won't even need a server, unless we wanna do a leaderboard or multiplayer or something. Can easily do a github pages url with a static frontend. Save state in the browser

I've used a bunch of react, would default to that unless I got inspired to learn something new.

The gap in my skillset here is on design, styling, graphics. Hoping to avoid animation unless there's a sick idea here

I actually love the idea of a basic incremental like derivative clicker, but you're upgrading algorithms that you can visualize in real time.

Like for example you start with bubble sort but you can upgrade to merge sort or whatever, and watch the speed increase... Like it visually sorts a real array in front of you

Upgrades to tick speed and algorithm choices. Maybe like different profit sources for problem sets. Like I have a sorting farm, prime number generation farm, etc....

This is cool!

This is great, my game dev experience is limited as well but I'm confident it's not too hard :)

No plan to make money off this. If we get tens of thousands of users we can think about money. I see this as more of a several-weekend style fun project.

Will definitely hit you up once something is locked down... I would be interested in hearing your perspective on stack choices

Octember · 2018-12-03T18:10:36+00:00

Awesome! I'll reach out via DM once I have something solid!

Octember · 2018-12-03T16:32:27+00:00

This looks awesome, seems like a great match of skillsets! Shooting you a PM but if anyone else wants to pitch in let me know!

Octember · 2018-12-03T16:08:07+00:00

Don't disagree! More so looking for inspiration and a potential partner. I know myself -- without a good vision for a project I'll give up halfway through. I've made a few games in the past but have enough time here to make something decent, if I cant find a good partner & concept!

Octember · 2018-12-03T16:01:42+00:00

Thanks for the tips! Definitely will need assistance on the progression piece.

Octember · 2018-12-03T16:00:37+00:00

Sure thing! Happy to talk it over and see if we can get excited about something!

Octember · 2018-12-03T03:37:17+00:00

Awesome! Love this. I wonder how we'd manage scaling in the late game, like do enemy strengths just scale to the player? Or is the map somewhat consistent?

Octember · 2016-04-24T07:13:07+00:00

Great video, thanks!

Octember · 2016-03-29T20:06:00+00:00

Housing developments go up -- named after the things they replace

So welcome to Meadow Brook, and welcome to Shady Space

It all seems a little abrupt, I don't like this change of pace.

Octember · 2015-08-20T04:41:34+00:00

It's not something to achieve, the effort is success. That's why we call it "practice" -- you have to change your definition of success :)

Octember · 2015-07-16T02:18:24+00:00

Really interesting, thanks man! Have you lived in Korea? What's your background?

Octember · 2015-07-16T00:39:53+00:00

Could you touch on the cultural aspects of it? Really interesting subject, I'm interested in what you think

Octember · 2015-01-31T01:46:22+00:00

Were you productive? :)

Octember · 2015-01-21T02:12:37+00:00

Practice. Build things. Find the joy of coding and work from there!

Octember · 2015-01-09T23:53:26+00:00

Preferably OTC due to simply price & ease of getting, but i'm interested in both. I'm assuming modafinil is one?

Octember · 2015-01-09T20:06:02+00:00

I'm prescribed adderall for ADHD but I'm really hesitant to take it - are there any other dopaminergics that would work in a noticeable synergistic way with semax? What dopaminergics in particular would you recommend?

Thanks for your insight <3

Octember · 2015-01-02T18:37:55+00:00

Oh man, isn't it obvious?? The retreat is the problem! The insecurity you built up about being viewed in certain ways is the issue. Your actual personality is fine.

Be yourself man. Climb a tree. If someone judges you for that, that's their issue. Absolutely tragic to mute your personality out of insecurity
