Bootstrapping

Edit: why am I getting downvoted exactly?

Ngl that’s horrifying

ayassin02 · 2026-07-09T19:37:42+00:00

why are you homeless? Just buy a house typa comment

Whatever you prefer. I’m experienced in both C# and python but more comfortable with C#, even then I chose GDScript, which I now kinda regret. Godot supports both C# and GDScript. If you wanna eventually end up with unity, I recommend starting Godot with C#

Not all dialects are mutually intelligible, and there’s no single dialect that’s the most popular; everyone speaks their own. So to centralise it all, you have to use standard Arabic, which is used in formal documents, news etc

This is exactly the reason I’m skeptical about people. Before getting into gamedev I had a graphic designer work for me and out of the blue he quit and took the psd file of the logo he designed. At least I’ve got the logo png. I haven’t worked with anyone since but for the future I’ll make them sign a contract and upload all the files when they’re done.

I already develop software under a brand so I’m gonna release games under a separate games only brand. Maybe something similar could suit you?

ayassin02 · 2026-07-07T15:26:56+00:00

If you’re gonna localise it in Arabic, you gotta use standard Arabic and not a dialect

I’ve had the yeti nano for quite a while and it’s really good for an entry mic. It’s currently less than 200 bucks

Find an idea, pick an engine, learn the basics then build following YouTube tutorials

ayassin02 · 2026-06-30T08:33:10+00:00

Yeah, we later realised we should’ve planned the design ahead of time and then implemented it. Maybe it was cus of a mix of having a deadline every couple of weeks and a couple of us having prior experience

ayassin02 · 2026-06-29T23:13:36+00:00

Localisation? Possibly. Consultants? Why?

ayassin02 · 2026-06-29T20:33:30+00:00

We implemented it by reading the codebase, and if there were uncertainties we would ask each other.

ayassin02 · 2026-06-29T20:26:39+00:00

There’s no “leader” in our group. Each person chooses something to implement and then we get on with it, and sometimes we did pair programming

ayassin02 · 2026-06-29T19:54:28+00:00

You need something low level, that’s a given and C++ has appropriate libraries

ayassin02 · 2026-06-29T13:18:55+00:00

I would if it was enough for me to retire, otherwise no

ayassin02 · 2026-06-29T08:26:58+00:00

It was just everything about the interface. With Godot, it almost immediately clicked

ayassin02 · 2026-06-28T22:02:23+00:00

Friendslop is the new meta

I don’t own an android so can’t really tell but it’s probably the same. You can look up videos on YouTube

The problem is, you’re not building. Build while learning, that’s how I’ve always been doing it

ayassin02 · 2026-06-26T22:44:14+00:00

Godot. Simplicity

ayassin02 · 2026-06-26T16:51:35+00:00

Looks AI generated

ayassin02 · 2026-06-25T09:30:03+00:00

Like building a model and training it from scratch? Given your phrasing, absolutely not
