Blava Games

Solo game dev building Killswitch Zero, a sci-fi tower defense set in a near-future war against a rogue AI. Coming to Steam.

@Tarren_Gill Agreed on breaking up "gamers". I'd take it one step further though. The same person plays Minecraft with their kid, FIFA with friends and Hearts of Iron alone at 2am. That's not three profiles, it's three contexts.

@BecomingCaptain Really sorry to hear that, especially knowing how much effort goes into making a game. If you don't mind me asking, how many wishlists did you have at launch?

@FriendlyMuffin2 Hey! I'm also working on a tower defense. Just wishlisted yours, definitely keeping an eye on your progress!

[Blava Games @blavagames]

@ClaraDotH It looks so clean and smooth! The color palette fits perfectly.

Cannon finishing what the MG started.

@NandoPlay20 A very evocative phrase

[Blava Games @blavagames]

The thing that cost me most hours on this project wasn't code or art.
It was redoing parts I took for granted because I never had a clear idea of what game I was making. Who it's for, the tone, the market.
I started building features instead an strategy.
Lesson learned.

@ZenonMazarine Same here, though in my case it was mostly due to a lack of art skills.

[Blava Games @blavagames]

@RulerNakano The last was Kingdom Come Deliverance II

[Blava Games @blavagames]

@Zoroarts The cost of success. Same situation with lower numbers and nobody would care. Stay strong!

@Edudelm Yo siempre voy a espadazos con el clásico guerrero

[Blava Games @blavagames]

@MjTheHunter Pretty much the same, but you forgot the daily 'Am I actually ever going to finish this game?' 💀

[Blava Games @blavagames]

@psergiomr It feels amazing!

[Blava Games @blavagames]

@sensational965 Always loved the idea of game dev as a kid but never got around to it. One day I was playing a tower defense game and thought, 'Damn, I can build something like this.' So here I am.

[Blava Games @blavagames]

@AlteraDiabolis I meant progression in general whether it’s environment, difficulty curves, skills and others.

[Blava Games @blavagames]

@Giulio6686 Oh man, I feel the pain.

[Blava Games @blavagames]

@nursah_sylz It gets even worse when you're a dev trying to design.

[Blava Games @blavagames]

@vivoplt In JS, 'b' + 'a' becomes 'ba'. The next + 'a' tries a number conversion and fails, turning into NaN. Concatenating them creates 'baNaN'. Adding the final 'a' and .toLowerCase() turns into "banana".
