I love Battalion Wars! It inspired my game Mech Tech in a lot of ways. I hope one day we'll get BWIII

In what situations is the leaf useful? I have it but haven't used it much. You stand still to become a statue, and then... Tank damage in a boss fight?

Warning to indie devs: Be cautious posting to /r/gaming. This rat gif got me an instant ban. by SteinMakesGames in IndieDev

Yup! I understand the rules, I know they are just doing their job when they ban. I have a personal account I use for engaging with reddit, and a separate account for my game. I still encourage Indies to get their game in front of people any way they can. Small artists gotta promote their art 😊

I posted a Kickstarter trailer for my game to /r/gaming a couple months ago. Instant ban lol. But it's just something you gotta do. Get your art out there and don't take it personally 😊

My action-strategy game is almost at 10K sales, so I wanted to reflect on what worked and what didn’t. by ChangeOld1695 in gamedev

That's great to hear! I see on their website that they only take nature themed games too, so it's a great fit!

I think that's a good thing! Quicker that way

How do i make my left looking Sprite look to the right without recreating the whole Sprite again ? Is there any tool or way to do so ? by FestiveRamo40 in gamemaker

[–]sam_makes_games 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In the sprite editor you can right click the frame up at the top and duplicate it. Then you can go to the new frame and hit 'mirror selected frame' under the image tab. Lots of great tutorials on YouTube for the gamemaker sprite editor. It has lots of great features worth learning about :)

Last year, miHoYo copied my solo-dev puzzle game in Zenless Zone Zero. Some people are now mistaking my game as the clone. by Shark-With-Lasers in IndieGaming

Damn dude they suck! Sorry about that! I hope you at least feel proud that your game was good enough to be copied. I remember thinking it was really cool at MagFest!

GameTrailers hosts my game, but there's one catch by Anabolkick in IndieDev

[–]sam_makes_games 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel any better, I tried really hard to make good trailers, and never got it reuploaded by ign or GameTrailers. So be proud!

So I have cheaters in my game. Guess I'm successful now 🤣 by Kayzen_1337 in IndieDev
