I have 3 projects I consider 'Active'. I bounce between:

Debriz - A Gameboy Homebrew Shooter/RPG

RWBY: Huntress of Vale - A 2D Beat em Up based on web series RWBY

Synthetic Onslaught - An RTS/RPG hybrid

@IndieGameJoe Completely ignoring any AI tools, game dev still is the most accessible it has ever been!

Tons of free resources, templates, tutorials, vendors, visual scripting, and a really cool dude named @KenneyNL.

Anyone can learn, they just need to get over their fear and jump in!

BREAKING NEWS: You could learn how to make a game before AI existed

Just saying.

最近、AIでゲーム開発者が増えたからか、制作のアドバイスをよく見かけます。

「人気ジャンルを作るべき」「小規模に作るべき」など。

でも、個人開発の魅力は好きなことに挑戦できることだと思います。

他人の意見より、自分が作りたいゲームを作る方が、楽しく長く続けられると思います！

Still crazy how like majority of RWBY’s spinoffs emphasize WR compared to the canon show

🎮 GAME DEVS, THIS ONE'S FOR YOU.

15 years in games. Here's the community + social media stuff I wish someone had told me before I spent years posting 'New update! #gamedev' into the void:

✅ Followers aren't an audience until they've talked to you. Reply to people. 300 real conversations beat 30,000 impressions.
✅ Post the game, not the patch notes. Nobody in history has wishlisted a changelog.
✅ The first 3 seconds of your clip ARE the clip. If it opens on your logo, congrats, you made an ad people scroll past.
✅ A Discord isn't a community until someone besides you posts in it. 20 people who care beat 2,000 who joined for a giveaway.
✅ Hashtags are seasoning, not the meal. Eight in a row reads like a ransom note.
✅ Other devs aren't your competition. They're coworkers in the world's least organized office. Share their stuff. They'll share yours.
✅ Viral is a lottery ticket. Showing up every day is a salary.
✅ When someone says something nice about your game, screenshot it. You'll need it at 2 AM in month 14.

Got questions? I'm around right now. Ask me anything below 👇

I'm also open for contract work (community, social, launch strategy). DMs open.

[Indie Game Joe @IndieGameJoe]

One of the best things about indie games is that nobody asked for them. No meeting of people in suits decided your game should exist. You just wanted to make something cool that you love. Never forget that's your biggest strength

You're indie. Be weird, be raw, be authentic! ❤️

[Indie Game Joe @IndieGameJoe]

I was in a very dark place before doing all this. I was not well at all. But helping others, meeting new friends, and just seeing the joy I can bring to devs gives me something to wake up for

I am very grateful I get to do this. Thank you guys, truly ❤️
