I’m really glad that my first tweet ever is an idea I seek to work on as a professional Game Developer. I wanna involve you all in the entire game(s) development phase: Starting with the game idea, to making the idea a reality. Let’s start with the idea. <-Thread->

I worked on minimalist ChatGPT implementation with Swift and SwiftUI for iOS. I then asked the AI one of the most common question I come across, which is: "How to get started in tech?" Here's what the AI had to say (Amazing Insights) <thread>

Full Animal Interaction of the Augmented Reality project I worked on. When you place the grass the gazelle goes to feed on the grass. When you place the Tiger, the tiger stealths, attacks and kills the gazelle. Shows AR interaction experience of the food chain.

An Augmented Reality Project I worked on. You place different virtual animals using your camera in the real world.📱 I’ve created this such that the animals are aware of their surrounding. In this case when the Tiger senses there is a gazelle it stealths and kills the gazelle.

It’s a Basic 2D Action RPG(Role Playing Game) Where you get to kill the enemies and gain coin chests when they die. You then use these coins to buy better outfits which increase your health and Sword damage making it easier to fight off the enemies as they grow in number.

I’ve worked on this 2D Game in just 4 days. It’s currently Running on MacOS and Windows. I’ll provide the Downloads and the source code. Windows-bit.ly/3k0h2R8 MacOS-bit.ly/3VUlbDq GitHub Source Code-bit.ly/3vN2UgO

Devlog #13 Done creating the teachers API where anyone can set any kind of Mathematical or Multiple choice question and upload them to the game. All students will be able to play the game with the questions that you have set. PS: These are just parody questions😅.

Also worked on some algorithm to smooth the players transition movement when changing the lanes.

@WahomeMutahi100

This was from your comment, hope it looks better.

Devlog #12 Added Obstacles to the game such as trees and logs between the road, to make the player feel immersed in the Games’ Jungle Gameplay experience.

Here’s a sample code preview of the algorithm I wrote to infinitely generate the city created The Programming IDE I always use is

@JetBrainsRider

for C#🔥 The class is dependent on many other classes This will later be improved by Object Pooling. #100DaysOfCode #gamedevelopment

Devlog #6 Procedural City/Level Generation The city landscape that we created on the previous Devlog #5 can now be stored as a single object and generated using my own Algorithms to create an endless city relative to the players position #gamedevelopment #100DaysOfCode #unity
