👉👈 if you like what I make and want to support me for future projects, please consider sharing my game to people who might be interested. I'm making this game on my own, I don't have a huge network or big company backing me. Just sharing it helps me a lot. ❤️

Been quiet recently as I got my head down to working through a Godot course - built this little tower defense game and learnt a ton about the engine and how these type of games are built. Now on to build an FPS and learn from that #Godot #IndieDev #Learning

For the last 30 days I've been making a concerted effort to post everyday in the #Create30 challenge. It's helped me build a system to make it easier everyday and become part of my routine, which I hope to continue with - more posts about #gamedev and #solodev incoming 💪

Been planning my game dev learning path for the next 12 months and on game UI (which I do UI for products for a living) feels like its "learn how to implement in Godot" but I also want to reach out to indie devs and offer some free UI reviews, good idea? Bad idea? #indiedev #gamedev #godot
