I think you could improve the game by telling the player which letter was the correct one, so the player can learn and practice at the same time.

currently working on the alpha for a game that's very ambitious and has taken 1 year to get even remotely close to the finish line, if you're trying to make something huge having a team to fall back on when you get demotivated helped me out, but that's not for everyone. IDK what advice I would give other than "just finish it, its worth it" because we're close to the finish line for the alpha and its really exciting for a years worth of progress to finally be coming to a head. I also treated every large feature that I was making like a side project, which helped me because when I finished a huge system, it felt great to finish that feature fully, because it alone felt like the development of an entire small game.

I don't know whether side projects are *as* dangerous, as long as you're aware of what you're doing. I think opening little experimental projects and just prototyping one or two things really quickly can be incredibly helpful in building up your familiarity with your engine. As you mentioned, sticking with an engine you're comfortable with helps drive you to completion, and I think anything that helps you get better _overall_ at the act of game development is, when handled properly, probably a net positive.
@Goodgis4 жыл бұрын

There's another thing that happens to us developers which is the refactoring addiction. When you are developing something you always are learning things, new methods, new algorithms, new patterns, etc. Then after that learning lapse you look back your "old" code and finds several ways to "improve" them and spend time refactoring that code and it becomes a infinite loop of improving older code. This also applies to every area, graphic design ("ohh, that character could have this new outfit" and you redraw the entire character again), music.

I tried making a Let's play, got about half way through the game, and just kind of stopped. Maybe it's not the healthiest solution, but I haven't played that game since; it's not because I didn't like the game, I really enjoyed it, but I had to punish/reason with myself that I always quit doing something and never finish anything. That let's play was the closest I ever got to finishing anything, and I still couldn't do it. But, the fun of video editing became more and more like a chore: at first I was making lots of small visual gags, and near the end it felt lifeless. I felt like I didn't have the creativity or energy to make it fun, and my gameplay/commentary definitely couldn't do it on its own. Makes me mad at myself whenever I think of it. It's been over a year now, and I don't think I could back, out of shame or whatever. Glad you were able to drag yourself to the finish line.

Lmao, almost made me quit making my game. I felt similar things as you have. I'm also a graphic designer and a gaming lover. Learned unity for 6 months and the next 10 months developed some prototypes of 5 different style games. This happened between 2017-2018. Then got admitted to a master's of business course in Germany. Right now after finishing my master's after 2 years, started unity again. Thought of picking up old stones from those I made earlier, but I don't remember the logic or motivation behind those codes. But with the skill of project management and personal experience in unity, Now I'm making fast progress. Lessons I've learned personally. ~ At the end of each day, I'm writing myself what I've done, what else to do, what not to do - in a simple excel date wise. ~ Don't give too much attention to detail. Make things work for now. ~ Never break a working code in unity to try something new, or to add a new feature. ~ Never overthink, If u cant push the development- Stop right there and play a game. Come back, and thank me once you solved that issue. ~ If your idea is already existing, rethink them. Don't put your effort into making a clone.

Is that bee game your working on published yet? If not, will it be in the future

Not yet, it's still in development but you can wishlist it. It's called Dewdrop Dynasty.

Ended up playing the game. Exactly what Hiragana Pixel Party should have been. Simple and effective

If you want to stay motivated you can go outside or fin inspiration. Dewdrop dynasty for example is all about bugs, and getting to explore
