@Derly_dev yes!! we need more brotato-likes, everyone else is just copying vampire survivors

@NikTek Why isn't Unreal used as much as Unity or Godot by indie devs making stylized or non-photorealistic games?

Genuinely curious. It seems like the perfect engine for solo devs or tiny teams. Faster iteration than Unity, more features out of the box.

@IRCSS You can code C++ with Godot via GDExtension

Indie devs, don’t market your game like it’s AAA.

- You’re indie.
- Be weird.
- Be raw.
- Be silly.
- Be authentic.

Use your size as your weapon, not your excuse. You've got this!

[Emil Laine @flogram_dev]

@RelicAbyss Totally agree, I also watched it for the first time a couple years ago and it's been a huge influence on my game

@flamedevZzz Don't think a lot. Learn to recognize and follow your gut feeling.

[Emil Laine @flogram_dev]

@PuppetCombo For some reason I thought this was you sending messages to yourself. Which would also work. The internal monologue of a game developer.

@tsoding Nice strategy to filter out VS Code users from contributing lol
