thanks haha, it's actually a song I made for the game, but I haven't released it anywhere yet. I'll reply to ya again if I ever put it out on youtube, or soundcloud

@ awesome man haha, please do upload it, I replayed that part of the video like 10 times lol.

Glad to hear it! you are making progress, and I'd say there is always a way to make it better, always. So don't worry about perfection, just get the thing done to the best of your ability.

I do all of the 3D modelling for the game yea, all of the characters, enemies, effects, etc.

@ I meant irl

@@mamiondish9482 oh nah haha, my b

thanks!

which one?

@@dogma.questlog wow you actually respond at almost every comment, i was kidding, great job, keep it up. I want someday to learn to make games like you

@@blowerkillo1172 I like your comment, very funny, you can definitely do it

@@dogma.questlog failing computer science university, everything is so confusing, even the basics but I like watching videos of game dev

sorry dawg, it'll be open again sometime or i'll be doing the next fest and you can download the demo version!

very relatable, i try to remember what it was like when i was young and just doodled whatever and didn't care about the outcome. Hard to have a positive fun mindset, but that helps me get through the feeling you are describing.

thanks for watching, I appreciate it! you are an og

thanks haha

feel ya there on the ordering / process struggle. Its all gotta come together at once but also can't haha. I wish ya luck!

watch on 2 times speed for a more concise experience

ahhh

thank you!

thank you!

thanks senor fish 4600

also slide me that feedback Q&A or the template you used 👀

i built the sheet template its pretty easy on google sheets you got that

highest praise

thanks! its made in godot with c#

@@dogma.questlog Ah nice. The god dot. I messed around with it some recently, but for the life of me I couldn't make it through the tutorial I was working along with. It just didn't hold my attention. (It was a 14 hour tutorial too. Ugh.) Really good stuff for a year of dev. Interesting aesthetic, kinda reminds me of some of the older PS games I would play. Especially Azure Dreams.

thanks!, and yea that's fair thats a long tutorial haha. I'll have to check out Azure Dreams

hype

feel that! you got it

you might feel behind for all of time, (I feel behind too) but that is no reason not to start / keep progressing. (and you aren't behind!) In terms of meeting people you can find discords, or forums online i'd recommend game jams as a good way to collab and meet people with similar interest, or there are plenty of game dev meetups in person if you can find those, or start a club at uni people might join in terms of career, games jobs are competitive to get, but that being said, the games entertainment industry has a huge huge huge market cap and games make a lot of money, and they need people to make the games. I'd recommend trying to get your foot in the door doing an internship (try to get a paid one) or QA (quality assurance) at a bigger studio and connect with people there. Best way I've found to get contacts is by cold emailing the hr people or art directors or lead designers after you apply, just to mention how interested you are in the job and if there is anything you can do further. thanks for sharing your thoughts, if you like what you do, stick with it!

good question, I am going through a similar process myself. I think something that can help if keeping people involved in development, whether that is putting out a note about what you are working on even if it isn't "the new update is ready". And even asking questions about what people think about certain ideas. You still have to decide yourself and trust your gut, but the discussion may be engaging and people may stay excited about the ideas. I don't have to much to say because this is something I'm working through as well! Good luck!

thank you!

yo thank you for watching!

thank you.

a lot of it relies on prior knowledge and additionally things that already exist (zelda, etc.) I think it is a small slice of a game and a bigger project with more ambition would definitely take more time! don't beat yourself up for it. Part of design and creation is the journey and it is all useful in some way or another, don't worry about timing too much

thanks!

thanks for watching and for the question, I try to make all the models for my projects!

haha thanks for checking it out, loved your java rpg vid, and dewdrop is looking clean!

thank you!

I don't think so, I think i really started taking it seriously when i was 19 and I still have a lot to learn at 25. I think you can learn a lot if you apply yourself and you can have lots of fun if you keep projects small and work your way towards larger things slowly. I think any time is a good time to start. Additionally, you probably have only lived a quarter of your life or something similar. you have hopefully at least 3 more times that to do whatever you want. Think of being a baby till now, and think of what you could accomplish with another 20 years!

@@dogma.questlog I am trying to build 3d combat / card activated games, like an animated 3d yugioh for example. What’s a few small projects you would recommend for building up to building a real game? I have some ideas but would love to hear your input

I think some smaller card type games would eb good, even recreating a normal deck of cards to understand card structure and data, that kinda deal. As for the 3d thing, just getting 3d models in engine and animating would be good! I don't know what if any experience you have but always start super simple and often recreating things that already exist is a good refereence. Like make your own solitaire or something like that, make a game with multiple card hands, etc. I you need online, work on small online projects just to move things around or exchange data to get the hang of it

good plan, definitely helps to keep scope small and having some others along the way to keep you accountable and inspired is always a plus, good luck!

thank you!

I'm going to have to make a spiritual successor

@@dogma.questlog 😭

thanks for watching!

thank you! As for the music, not at the moment but I may make a soundcloud and post it there, or post some of the OSTs on the dogma Quest trailer channel soon. If I do I'll put up a community post or I'll respond to this again. Thanks for watching

@@dogma.questlog Thanks! I am proud of you man!

that'd be funny, It'd be cool if it was crystal ball but a 3d like hologram thing instead of a flat image

yo thank you!
