Colin and Matty's Game Dev Adventures | Sacred Symbols+, Episode 297

A few weeks ago, Matty approached me (Colin) with a thought: What if we sat down and dished about our respective journeys into game development. I loved the idea, and so here we are! Now, it's important to note that our adventures are nascent; Matty's still working on his first game, while the first title I contributed to only launched in 2020. Still, we've managed to glean some insight and knowledge along the way, and are eager to not only share what we have to say with you, but with each other, too. From production to publishing, and from economic realities to marketplace competition, we have a lot to go over. But, in all actuality, there's a great deal we don't know and have yet to learn. And that's part of the fun, no doubt.

Wait, Matty is making a game? Never heard him mention it before.

If Matty is a game developer, it wouldn't be intuition that he has as a result. That would be called insight. Probably what he meant to say.

I've been in industry for 9 years now, AAA to Indie. The one thing I say to people looking to get into game dev is this: *Making* games is easy. Anyone can download Unity, open up Youtube and get a character running around and doing stuff in no time. *Finishing* a game ready for consumption, is nearly impossible.

Can someone please for the love of god buy Matty a key light! I don’t get why he always films in darkness 😆 As a fellow full time creator, this was super fascinating! Great chat.

This conversation has motivated me to continue work on the 2D Pokemon like RPG game I have been making in Unity.

he’s said he’ll be moving soon anyways so getting another light isn’t necessary, but mainly that the way the current space is set up he can’t have another light closer to his recording area without coming off too bright or generally harming his eyes.

let the community know when you’re done, would love to try it.

Will do! I have a bad habit of slipping behind but it has been the best game idea I have came up with so far!

This is probably my favorite SS+ yet. I just love hearing about game dev stuff. Definitely got me inspired!

One day, one day I will have my dream 8 bit sidescroller a reality.

I feel attacked. Colin called me out on "I don't care who the band is" 😂 cause I know nothing about my favorite artist, directors and even actors.

I really enjoyed this one, Matty, Colin. You both shared a window into your personal life which is a privilege to be privy to. I appreciate you both.
