An indie devs priority shouldnt be about money, it should be the love of the craft, learning, and most of all, having fun doing so. The market is flooded with thousands of devs. Only in rare cases will you make any money. Its called reality... #IndieGames #GameDev #IndieGameDev #GameDev

If your a Unity user pick one version and stick with it for the life of the project. Do NOT update/upgrade for the life of the project. You dont want that headache and loss of time, as time is the enemy of devs, we never have enough of it, use it wisely... #IndieGames #GameDev #IndieGameDev #GameDev

All music for Isle Of Carnage is created by a russian musician friend of mine, who goes by LiteSaturation. He creates everything from soft ambiance to metal and everything in-between. I have both his private work and public work, so this will be nice... #IndieGames #GameDev #IndieGameDev #GameDev

Heres a top down view that shows the size/scale of Isle Of Carnage. In the bottom left youll see the main para-military base for example. Its a large island thats about 70% developed, with caves, swamps, beaches, downed aircraft, grounded ships and more: #IndieGames #GameDev #IndieGameDev #GameDev

This is why i chose the Unity Engine for my latest personal project. Theres a reason Unity is a competitor of Unreal Engine, theres a reason 2.7 billion people use it daily. Ive used it since the early 2000s: #IndieGames #GameDev #IndieGameDev #GameDev www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1JI...

Some of my students and others have run into terrain textures being too shiney/reflective. Answer: delete/turn off the alpha on your texture. You dont want alpha on with any terrain texture, and dont use mipmap streaming support on ANY terrain texture. #IndieGames #GameDev #IndieGameDev #GameDev

Isle Of Carnage: heres an in-editor view of the south western para-military base i just finished. There are 4 sub bases and a main base on the island. Everything is out to kill you, the para-military, the dinos, and even some species of plants: #IndieGames #GameDev #IndieGameDev #GameDev
