One of my players filed an interesting bug...

My game was way too hard! Turns out learning a language and learning game mechanics makes for a stressful experience.

My roguelike had randomization, permadeath, but was missing another important roguelike feature!

I made a cool splash screen for my game https://t.co/vb5T3T2q7D via @YouTube

Now I know why every game makes their tutorial unskippable...

I did a play test for my language learning game and the learning outcomes were even better than I hoped for!

What languages would you want to see available and how advanced the would you want the word sets to be?

I just finished the second boss for my game, and added my own twist to the classic boulder throwing mechanic!

I thought of the perfect 1 damage object and the upgrade to it!

I wrote some music for the first boss battle in my game, I really tried to match the feel of the different stages and have the song progress with the player!

[Extra Gravity @ExtraGravityDev]

I had to get a little creative to make sure players were actually learning the words in game!

[Extra Gravity @ExtraGravityDev]

Just added a pause menu to my game, even that has a bunch of design implications!

You can't trust ChatGPT, good thing I got these translations checked!

@sensational965 Making sure the aesthetics of my game are marketable

[Extra Gravity @ExtraGravityDev]

Learning to post on social media has been the hardest part of my game dev journey so far I think. But I'm celebrating whatever success I have!

The writing was on the wall right when the merger with ironsource happened.

The more I read about Unity and IronSource, the more it's sounds like IronSource plays a large part in Unity's runtime fee decision.

Unity messed up baaaad. It's way worse for a game engine company to lose their customer trust than most other companies.
