My dayjob is teaching kids game dev (middle-school). Disappointement time for them is often not being able to make the game they dream about. But as soon as they get a sprite running around in Construct, man oh man, you can see their faces glowing. From that point on, it's smooth sailing, but it's a big part of my job to temper their initial expectations.

@mandisaw 10 месяцев назад

I occasionally TA or speak to my grad advisor's game dev & design class for junior/senior undergrads. Same issues :) If she didn't give them defined milestones, and make them submit & present their ideas throughout, the students would def try to make BotW in a semester 😅

Save system and localization shouldn't be "the last step" because by then, you will have to rework so much to fit it. Sometimes save system demands reworking internals, and it can be very useful tool for testing, especially in longer games. You can't rely on cheat jumps, select stages, loading scenes directly. It -can- will hide bugs and doesn't give a proper feel of balance. It also gives a good framework to prepare for specific scenarios that you know are bug prone. And with localization, you often need to rethink how to display texts, messages, etc., many of your text scripts, text effects will not fit common localization methods, and many languages will require additional scripting. For example, if you have text created from many parts, like weapon name in bold, it's cost and some info, with cost incrementing from 0 to full number, you will need to rework it all if you just hardcode it. It's a great idea to just make some test projects to check out how to make localization how with effects and uses you want and with save system. And with save system try it with game that you need to save data of all non static objects on map, like rpg that can have broken chests, loot dropped, monsters defeated. And keep in mind persistent and temporary data (persistent like your character data, and temporary like loot dropped in dungeon that can be wiped out as soon as you leave it) and how to handle persistent data between scenes. At least if you are gonna use more complex save system. Plus, if you want to ship it to different platforms, learn what they use. For example on consoles you may have save everything into one save, which is terrible for PC saves, so better build the system flexible enough to handle both, especially if you envision that you will not make save wipes and make saves transferable between platforms.

I recently launched my first Steam game during the Steam Stealth Fest last month, and your advice here was exactly my thoughts when going through that process! I knew launching the game during the fest would boost my player counts and I was indeed correct. In just 2 weeks nearly 15k people downloaded my game (free to play VR game)! After release I was getting great feedback from both let's plays and reviews, and I even started a Discord that people have been joining to offer feedback and suggestions. I learned a lot from the whole experience, and I definitely owe it to you and others here on RU-vid.

Really glad I found ur channel 😆 I was trying to learn game dev for a long time but was unable to so Working on learning and practise during weekends cause regular IT day job is pretty taxing. Figured after seeing one of my fav manga get cancelled with no ending figured why not make a RPG style game based on that for practise and give it a ending.( Cause I aint getting any younger to do game dev as a hobby later after retiring , nearly 30 now 😓) Already Have a plan and how to proceed on the game , just needed to learn the right tools for the Job which is where u channel had been real helpful. Thank you. On the game : So the basic idea for enemies is they are highly sensitive to sound and smell but are blind , individually weak yet strong but can be beaten but strong in a group kind when stealth needs to be priority. So u have 3 survivors from different paths and physical attributes and training who have to escape from overrun complex inland to Extraction point that is a bit far and on the coastline. Any tips on how to develop a RPG like this that has stealth+action hybrid system? Or am I being unrealistic for beginner and setting myself up for failure?

@luchinazo 10 месяцев назад

I think your approach shouldn't be asking for specific advice on how to develop a mechanic. It's better to try to develop them yourself and if you are really stuck then ask for help on specific problem like a line of code or how to make certain thing happen. That's why you should learn the fundamentals of unity and most of all, understand the entire system first.

If that's your first game then that sounds a bit too complex. I would start super simple, just make a basic character movement, then add some enemies, then some attacks, then research Enemy AI and state machines, etc, etc. That idea requires learning a ton of stuff, you can either learn all that as you develop one project, or take each one of those components and build an entire game around it.

Thanks for the great videos on getting games from dev to production. One thing that absolutely terrifies me, is when it comes to areas like Trade Marks and Copyrights, especially for international released games. Do you have any advice or content on what your own thought processed were wrt your own games on steam? Do you think that Tms and Copy right type stuff is important at all when releasing games on steam?

@CodeMonkeyUnity 8 месяцев назад

If you are a small/solo dev like me then the answer is just don't worry about it. Unless your game is worth tens of millions of dollars then there's no point in spending time registering marks Even if you do own a trademark and someone else infringes upon it, you will still need to spend money to fight that in court, better to spend all that money/time making better games.

@dibaterman 10 месяцев назад

Agreed entirely, I spent my first year cutting my teeth on Unity and C#. I feel as if I have a very very solid understanding of C# as well as a solid understanding of Unity now. I'm going back to learn up on shader graph, but I feel that the last bastion of stuff to learn from Unity is Shader Graph, Multiplayer and the new UI tool kit. On the programming side I'm figuring out procedural patterns now which I believe is going to mark down all the tools I need as a programmer as being behind me once it's done. I can say that I am out of beginner and into intermediate proper. I tried and didn't exactly like ECS, it feels like it needs a few more iterations until it before I want to grab it... it just feels clunky. But my first major project will likely never be completed, but I have done now 2 smaller projects one a solo project. In the last one I did (a jam) I was kind of forced to wear my programmer hat/ game dev hat / lead designer hat. The project got done but that reminded me of this lesson, scale the projects down first then scale up if I see room for it.

My idea was also to play along with the next fest. but bad I was late to party so maybe next in my next game. for now, my focus is to publish my Steam page and learn to collect some wishlists by mid-October a release. yes, it is a short time span but the game is not big. but in the end, I already learn some stuff about making a Steam page and what I need. so next time it will go faster. and besides that, some promotion has given the game some eyeballs. not a ton but already people are aware that you exist.

@@Pahan75D1 I guess it depends on your market & genre, but I really urge indies not to do free-to-play, whether it's mobile, PC/Steam, or whatever. Whether it's Ads or IAP, you need massive amounts of players to even make a few measly bucks, and a shi*ton of marketing/user-acquisition to even get in the game. The likes of King, MiHoYo, even some Indian team-of-6 churning out hypercasuals weekly - they all have oodles more manpower and money than any indie. IMO the only way free mobile games work for indies is if you score a platform deal, like Apple Arcade (I think carriers also still do this outside of North Am & Europe). Basically just get your check upfront, and you're essentially just selling to *one* customer - the platform. Otherwise just sell your game and identify/market to your audience like normal.

Do you recommend starting with a 2D game since its generally simpler? Or starting with a 3D game can be the way to go?

@suspecm6316 10 месяцев назад

Imo, if you want to make a 2D game, make a 2D game, if you want to make a 3D game, make a 3D game. Realistically there is not much difference between the learning curve of both, especialy since game engines like Unity has complete character controllers made for free for 3D games.

@frogmasto1316 10 месяцев назад

although I'm not code monkey, I just started with the things I found most fun, I didn't wanna make a 2D game and I doubt I would have got anything done because I really wanted to make another idea (in 3d), so I just reccommend going with whatever (at least that worked out for me) :D

@Zondels 10 месяцев назад

Like @suspecm6316, there really isn't much of a difference in terms of difficulty. I started at first with 2D but then gave up. After a while I started with 3D and stuck with it. I have made tons of 3D games and not a single 2D one. I think I could make a 2D one at least to some extend if I tried to. So in conclusion, start with whichever you want, you will know mostly how to do both later.

@CodeMonkeyUnity 10 месяцев назад

A few years ago I would have said yes but nowadays thanks to how extensive the asset store is (tons of free and paid stuff) I would say either one would work. Technically 2D would be somewhat simpler due to just XY but as long as you don't implement complex vertical mechanics then 3D on just a XZ plane would be just about the same in terms of complexity

@suicune2001 10 месяцев назад

As someone who isn't good at all making 3D models and animations, I'm sticking with 2D for now. You have to remember, 3D has the uncanny valley to worry about. And performance and other issues.

@ExpensivePizza 10 месяцев назад

I would even go as far as saying the goal of your FIRST GAME is to get a few people to PLAY it and provide FEEDBACK. Asking for money is actually detrimental to this goal. Even giving your game away for FREE is harder than you imagine. But paradoxically, getting good at making FREE games will in turn make people want you buy your PAID games.

@ElianeGameDev 10 месяцев назад

Yeah, probably. Do you think it's better to wait for the next festival (2024 I guess) and work on a new game in the meantime (while still collecting wishlists), or to publish the game in October/November without participating in a festival ? I don't have any big constraints and I can wait a bit, but I guess the value of getting your demo played is really important, particularly for feedbacks and wishlists.

@CodeMonkeyUnity 10 месяцев назад

Depends on what is the goal with that project. If it's your first game and your goal is learning then I recommend the plan in the video, make the demo live during the festival even if not officially and afterwards just launch it If it's not your first game and you're hoping to find financial success then yes waiting and participating properly in a festival would be the right move

If your focus is on learning and making small games, but still publishing them on steam - would you suggest going through the process of making a company, or just publishing as an individual?

@davidrogers6987 10 месяцев назад

This is a great video. Intermediate-advanced developers should try to understand proper documentation. This skill set will keep you focused on your objectives and avoid scope creep by sticking to systems and mechanics with deadlines. It's easy to get caught in the infinite loop of adding/tweaking more. As a beginner, aim to have something that can be played from start to finish and have as many people as possible playtest and provide feedback. Doing this will teach you not only soft skills but lots of compounding growth opportunities such as understanding good quality feedback, iteration, creating an enjoyable experience and so much more. I want to emphasize what was said in this video, to start small! making games can be extremely overwhelming, it's a marathon, not a sprint.

@mandisaw 10 месяцев назад

I would say it's more planning & project management than documentation, per se. You can absolutely document your descent into scope creep 😅Learning to track milestones, progress/timelines, when to feature-lock, etc are all skills that only become more useful as you gain experience/complexity. And agreed, devs at any stage of their career should be in the habit of getting feedback as soon as possible, and as much as possible. Pitch your idea to people, especially folks you *don't* know well, and gauge their reaction - are they excited, do they "lean-in" and ask for more info, or do you just get the "polite smile & nod"? At minimum, you'll get practice for summing up the fun points of your game, without boring your audience, which is useful for marketing later. In the best-case, you may find out there are people who really like (or dislike!) aspects of your game that you never even considered as such.

No genre is "too basic". Everything has its niche, you just need to know how to appeal to that niche. Though in case by "basic" you mean "simple", not at all. Platformers come with a set of problems to solve that most beginners overlook. Even something as seemingly simple as a Jump can be a challenge to implement in a way that feels good and responsive, like in Mario games.

@CodeMonkeyUnity 10 месяцев назад

That really depends on what else you want to implement. 3D Platformer by itself is pretty basic, but if you implement the number of skills/enemies/worlds like Super Mario Odyssey then it becomes too complex. If you limit the scope to just one or two small worlds and not many enemies/pickups then yup that could be a great genre for this plan

@mandisaw 10 месяцев назад

Writing down concepts, conceptualizing mechanics, art/aesthetics, etc are all progress - that's pre-production. It's both the cheapest part, in terms of resources & labor, but potentially can have the biggest impact on the success of your project or learning endeavor. Figuring out what works & doesn't work, what excites you (and hopefully your players), and what sort of skills, resources, & goals you'll need to work towards acquiring - all of that is super-important and highly valuable uses of your time. Being a nights-and-weekends dev myself, I can say that our unique "big challenge" is time-efficiency. When I had to commute, I was using that time to think about my game, work through sticky points of system-mechanics, make & save notes about plot/character/references, all that stuff. Heck, I listen to tracks for soundtrack/BGM potential while doing dishes, and show off cool screenshots at family & friend gatherings. Think of it like the dev equivalent of "getting your steps in" LOL

@CodeMonkeyUnity 10 месяцев назад

Yeah doing game dev with a job and family is definitely doing it in hard mode. My advice (without having any experience with that specific scenario) is try your best to do a tiny thing every day, even if it's just 10 minutes, I really like the concept of "no zero days" when learning/doing anything

While on paper things make sense but in reality taking action is another thing adding to that Game Development is a non linear industry there are some stuff that you can't make plans for and making an FPS game is never like a TopDown game.

@VRWarLab 10 месяцев назад

@@CodeMonkeyUnity In my opinion, I think it exists but it's not that big of an issue, and people makes it seem like a big deal. If something, it makes it so that there are a lot of small games you can enjoy for some time and not commit to, as you would do with big titles you are expected to play for 40+ hours. The biggest problem I think exists is that 90%+ of indie games end up losing money but we have to take into account that most of those projects are super low budget, entry level projects, and the fact that they took place and failed was a learning experience for the developer, either learning how to make a better game and how to handle the development, or realizing that game dev is not for them in the first place. For me, as a developer, I found VR the only market I was daring to publish something since it's not cluttered with thousands of of indie titles releasing every day. I got more users than I could have ever imagined and I'm targetting a very, very small market compared to mobile or flat screen games. If I was making the same game for flat screen, I don't think I could have gotten so many people involved in the project, but I can't look at an alternative reality where I never touched VR and made my game in a different platform, so I can't tell for sure.

My point is that good to regencies your skills to not try to follow blind what other do people or say. Like explain earlier i made my 3D models and because i have this skill i figured that it's better for my to made own 3D models, in that way the game visuals it's more consistent and look better in my opinion. Most of the assets i use for my game it's mostly tool's instead. One other advice that may help some people is if someone is more like artist it's easy able to made i more artistic game.
