One of the major motivations behind my decision to start creating video games was to give back some of the joy and inspiration I got from games during my youth.

I'm quite sure video games have been fundamental for others as well, players and #GameDevs alike.

[Fer Gamboa @fergamboa_]

Pour your heart into your game. I know you will create something amazing!

Once in a blue moon, I write a tutorial! Like today!

It’ll help you if you need to test refund notifications when using AppStore Notification V2 for a Unity game for iOS when using Unity IAP.

Spread the word, #gamedevs!

Before starting a new project, think about everything it may involve. Beware of scope creep and consider your current skills. Small+achievable projects are better than large+incomplete projects.

Yes, I have one or two #wips hunting me 👻

Good to remember this when you're pushing deadlines back; sometimes you need that extra time to deliver the best experience possible!

If your multiplatform mobile Unity game uses Firebase, just add all platforms as apps pointing to the same backend. Reduced integration and testing time!

Long ago, I was talking to my cousin about games and thought it would be very cool to become a game developer. I was 10yo, but remember the moment fondly.

When did you consider to be a developer for the first time?

#indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #gaming

[Fer Gamboa @fergamboa_]

How many times did you find a bug, get stuck? Feeling frustrated, anyone? Change the mindset; think that you'll learn something new to become a better dev. If that fails, there is always ice cream :D

When creating achievements for both #GooglePlay and #AppStore, create them on Google first. You can reuse the automatic ID for the achievements on AppStore--saves time!

The first game I played was Wonder Boy, in the Comodore64 of my brother when I was 4yo. I think I just gave up my age 🤣 Anyway, what was your first videogame?
