Started a Hobby Game Project

Image
After choosing GDevelop as my game engine for the next project, I started a small hobby project. It's a classic dice game called "Going to Boston". Though the rules of this game are pretty simple, I have to think how to implement the game logic using the game engine. So, I decided to start small and make a simplified version first.  Today I could make a simple game where each player rolls the dice and the player who rolled the higher value wins. I struggled to make appear the winning text but then I discovered how to do that. I have to create sub-events to implement that logic. Here's what I've created today.

Choosing a Game Engine

I recently started learning C#. A big advantage of learning C# is I can use that language for game development. The most popular game engine in the world; Unity supports C# as its main scripting language. These days, I've been reviewing and analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of different game engines (mainly Unity and Godot) to start learning a game engine. I didn't actually start learning ANY game engine. All I did was watching YouTube videos and reading articles about game engines all day. But then I made a decision; choose GDevelop. GDevelop is the first game engine I learned. It's a beginner friendly game engine. The main reason for choosing this game engine is it is ENOUGH for the games I want to create. I only create 2D games. I'm not a fan of 3D games. I make simple games without complex mechanics. And the graphics I use are simple.  Even though if I use a complex game engine, I still have to create sprites, game logic, and most other things related to game d

Started Learning LÖVE 2D and Lua

Image
Hello!  Currently I'm using GDevelop for Game Development. It's the only game engine I know.  Recently I've been researching about other game engines/frameworks because I want to try out some other options. The reason is there might be a better one than GDevelop that suits me. I decided to learn a game framework instead of a game engine. When using a game framework, we have to write everything so I can improve my programming skills. Another reason I want to try a game engine is I want to participate in GitHub Game Off jam this year. I think creating something using only code is better for this game jam because we have to open source our project.  Then I decided to learn  LÖVE 2D . I started following a game development course on freeCodeCamp YouTube channel. I'll keep posting about my LÖVE 2D journey. 😊

Completed My First Task

Today I completed the first task assigned to me. 🥳 I feel very satisfied and proud of myself for completing this task. I'm really happy that I chose the career I'm passionate about.  The task I was assigned was to modify the confirmation popup boxes such as DELETE and RESTORE in a way that is common in the app. I had to change the layout of the popup box by adding an icon, adding additional text, changing the color of the primary button, and aligning the title and the icon. I also had to replace all the confirmation popup boxes in the app.  One of the senior developers gave a KT session on how to do that and my supervisor and another senior developer helped me when things got difficult. However, finally, I could complete my task and push the changes successfully. ✅
