From Scratch Games - Jared Thorn

Solo indie studio by Jared Thorn. Currently working on unnamed Farming RPG

[From Scratch Games - Jared Thorn @FromScratchGame]

Finally finished a course I've been working on to help me get the rough beginnings of my new Farming RPG underway. There's a long, LONG way to go but I'm super excited to start transforming this into the vision in my head #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiedev

[From Scratch Games - Jared Thorn @FromScratchGame]

What an absolutely fantastic way of running a give-away and showcasing other #indiegames in the process. Take a look!

@doot_dodo I see nothing out of the ordinary here. Carry on.

Following on from this I've decided to do something I've been wanting to do for a long time & I'm finally giving #GodotEngine a try. Been running through some tutorials and I'm really enjoying it, starting to see what all the fuss is about!

Been thinking about this (& related posts) a lot lately & I think it's a concept I'm going to explore further. My schedule, health issues & ongoing struggles with scope creep are making it extremely difficult to make progress lately. Well worth a read if you haven't already.

@reduzio Only just got round to trying it out recently, loving it so far!

@BonkyDev These are super cute!

@moonfell_rpg Beautiful! That's a follow right there

Turns out it's entirely possible to develop severe RSI in BOTH arms simultaneously when you're an overachiever like me, rendering you incapable of using your phone, doing any #gamedev or even playing games for the last 3 months. I didn't even get any fun meds for my trouble...

@pixelgroover These look stunning! Good job

@tsea200 Version control is your friend. Made a bunch of changes and screwed everything up? Nuke it back to the way it was

I was recommended this video today from @PirateSoftware. I have watched a lot of videos about #gamedev but this might be one of the best. Very inspirational & informative. Highly recommend you check it out if you haven't already - https://t.co/eaBXdAn9qr

Vegetables! Got a fair bit of bug fixing and restructuring done this week, but that's not interesting to look at so here's some new veges you can grow. Plenty more to come but it's nice to have some variety #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev

Wasn't as productive this week but the basic crafting system is up & running. Pop-up window will show you the requirements, recipes you don't have all the ingredients for will be blanked out. Can you tell I hate making UI? #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment #unity

[From Scratch Games - Jared Thorn @FromScratchGame]

What an absolute joy to wake up and see this face again. This man and his team inspired so many of us to get into game dev and I'm thrilled to see him back. Welcome home old friend

First video in 3 years - Hope you like it! ☺️ https://t.co/MKWGfL2RBw #gamedev

Chests! After some trial & error, chests are working & integrated with my existing inventory & save/load systems. Is it perfect? Hell no, I'll probably refactor the whole thing once I implement vendors, shipping bins, etc but it'll do for now #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiedev

@heynn2021 I like that, it's going in the notebook.

First new addition to the game...the humble potato. Boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew. The opportunities are endless! #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamedev #gamedevelopment
