    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Same pattern for both levels. The background/world won't matter since it will be a scrolling loop. I'll go deeper on future projects. This one won't be for sale, but the next ones probably will.

    How do you get the most out of tutorials/Udemy courses?

    Starting my own Game Development Studio

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    The good part is even if I fail, I'll have C# skills to improve upon and that language is used outside games. I spent hundreds of hours learning C# separately from Unity. Unity is simply an Engine that integrated C# for its scripting.

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    The other three don't matter. I'm using them only for reference and cloning aspects. Why? Here is a quote from one of the worlds most successful programmer: I will be the only one playing this game. This project is only practice so that I can learn the development framework and dive into...

    Starting my own Game Development Studio

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    I thought it would be better for me to plan out the development of my game at a high level. Real game studios do this and in greater detail for large projects. ("It's the little things that causes the big things." -MJ Demarco) *note this is the style of game I'm going for: Super Star Soldier...

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    I’m not in it to get money immediately or fast. I’m doing this to learn the workflow. This space shooter isn’t the one I plan on selling. I wasn’t clear in my prior post but this is the order I want to go in. First Project: Learn Unity (Throw Away Game) Second Project: Design and Develop...

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    It sure is. I've worked in game development for nearly 20 years and have seen multi-million dollar businesses fail. Everyone is doing e-commerce and I decided to do something within my wheelhouse. This is my first attempt at working on my own stuff. Taught myself how to code and do art...

    First Project: A retro top down 2D Space Shooter Behind the Scenes: I haven't made any design documentation yet and kind of just exploring. I will lay out level designs and scenarios once I actually get a working prototype of a single level. This will take a long time since I'm doing...
