Made a game with and at 2023! We took the theme "Roots" pretty literally!
Inspired by Snake, in Root Snek, you control the roots of a little tree sapling. We're really happy with the result, give it a try if you have time!

lil game design observation: like most survival games, night is scary/harder.. but in Valheim, dangerous enemies also have color-coded glowing eyes, at least in the early game. So at night, they're almost MORE visible.. plus, those eyes are a resource.

Game devs, help! 🙏
How do you find good fonts for your games?🔍📝
🔸Do you have websites where you buy or find free licenses?
🔸Do you get someone to make a costum one?
🔸How do you take localisation into account?
Currently looking for a nice (+readable) handwritten font 🤔

Hi, I design a font that is a PS4-Xbox Font Face Buttons.
This font is great for making prototype & mockups.
Upper case is PS4 and lower case is XBox and the 1-8 numbers are the controllers wireframes.

Made a 122 page Level Design document where I gather useful senior dev knowledge.
The goal was to gather up all this knowledge in one place. Both for learning and as reference.
Hopefully people find it useful and any feedback is welcome 😄
