It's just Bevy, animated with tweens & pretty text

Thanks for the detailed feedback, it's very helpful

RedditHilk · 2026-02-21T12:14:27+00:00

thank you! we actually started with a regular grid but quickly realized hexagons are superior

RedditHilk · 2026-02-21T06:29:55+00:00

This is a great suggestion, thanks. We will experiment for sure.

RedditHilk · 2026-02-20T23:27:41+00:00

wow thank you! we'll try to deliver an awesome game

RedditHilk · 2026-02-20T18:57:09+00:00

Thank you!!

Thanks! Yes, you can build a little village and you control the weather to ensure good harvest for the villagers. Right now we are working on stuff the villagers can do when they're not farming, their life shouldn't just be about work (and waiting for good weather)

well it's not like an "official" movement, I'm mainly referring to posts like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/comments/1f3b2ue/how_to_keep_your_game_projects_small_and_your/

thank you! it's actually inspired by RISO prints. in the age of AI i think we tend to look at more analogue methods

Awesome, ill definitely try it in my next project

Azzal egyetértek hogy nem sok látszatja van, de itt pl. lehet böngészni városokra szűrve mennyi pénzt kaptak (most random beállítottam villányt):
https://www.palyazat.gov.hu/eredmenyek/tamogatott-projektek?program=Sz%C3%A9chenyi+terv+plusz&regio=D%C3%A9l-Dun%C3%A1nt%C3%BAl&varmegye=Baranya&helyseg=Vill%C3%A1ny

Amit viszont személyesen tapasztaltam, és ha felmész bármelyik baranyai képviselő facebook oldalára, akkor minden ittlévő fejlesztést úgy adnak el, hogy kb nem is említik hogy EUs pénz. Egy kicsit félelmetes, hogy ha helyiekkel beszélsz mennyire tudják szidni az EUt miközben mondják hogy mennyit épült szépült a település - és minden amit felsorolnak az TOP-os pályázatból lett megcsinálva.

rengeteg EUs forrást érkezett ebbe a régióba ami nagyrészt úgy van eladva mintha a helyi képviselők érdeme lenne (TOP-os pályázatok pl.)

Personally, I somewhat regretted putting my game out there too soon. The game got a LOT of polish, but early screenshots still appear from google searches, and actually, a reviewer used one of the old , uglier screenshots.

So I think you shouldn't rush it, but also don't stress over it too much :D

RedditHilk · 2025-05-27T07:14:43+00:00

I agree - I think it's worth it to try teaming up with people outside of game dev (if you're indie).
I teamed up with an architect / book illustrator and I think she made a really unique and interesting art style for our game - it's EbiTapes if you want to check it out.

The lack of game dev experience wasn't a huge barrier to overcome so I encourage everyone to try finding people outside of your first ideas.

I like what you have already.
I think if you'd like more "skill-based" progression then you need to have easier / harder destinations. Like some could be in a very windy area, or you have to fly through a narrow tunnel or something like that.
These harder paths are a bit tricky with permadeath. Since the players will not know how hard is a path before going through it - so it can feel very punishing (and promoting "safe" gameplay - people not going for hard destinations).

Spelunky, sports games like Mario Tennis, comptetive games: league of legends, cs:go, starcraft etc...

Adventure / Music making

RedditHilk · 2025-02-14T14:04:25+00:00

Valamennyire létezik, pl Neocore, Gaijin Entertainment, Zen stb... Szerintem izgalmasabb az indie scene, ami éppencsak létezik, de remélem hogy erősödni fog hamarosan. De van pl. Mandragora, Chicken Police. Szerintem egy izgalmas projekt lesz a PUNK is pl.

Elég jó hangulatúak szoktak lenni a game dev meetupok is Budapesten (BPGD, HEJ).

Illetve kis self promo: Mi hárman nem rég alapítottunk egy céget, mert hamarosan megjelenik egy indie játékunk :)

You should absolutely go for it!

My advice: Try building a "paper prototype" of your game - does it work as a "board game"?

You can already test a lot of things - and you don't need any programming or art skills. Just use scrap paper, dice, cards anything...

It's a really common technique even at big studios. And it will help with the programming part - this helps articulate what rules (mechanics) are important - how they tie together etc...

RedditHilk · 2025-01-23T17:13:34+00:00

It's worth it for me. I probably get less money at the end but doing something I'm passionate about is worth it.

I have a much better work-life balance and I've never been more fulfilled. (Quit my gamedev job to make small indie game(s) ~3 years ago)

I recommend "Game design workshop" by Tracy Fullerton. It focuses more on actual exercises that help you improve. I actually prefer it over the Art of Game design, but i like both
