That last tip, "Keep your game in a finished state, that way you'll never be unable to complete it." That's a genius tip that could apply to many different types of projects in life. It keeps the ambition/ability ratio in check.

that mainly applies to game jams...in real life projects that will most likely lead to you investing too much in an too earlier stage when you should still be experimenting.

@@JonasTyroller mmm yeah, I understand your point. Probably the "correct" answer to this doesnt exist. There are pros and cons.. I can only say to you that for me, dont seeing the tip counter has been a big problem in this video. The tip counter maintain me so much more in the video. As a game dev too, I see this same logic in when you put a level number on a game or not. Maybe the result is the same, but is completely other sensation. Also, I didnt watch the end of the video, so, probably that is the same for either case.. the most mayority doesnt stay after the tips.. with or without number If I were you, I would disperse all the things you said at the end of the video, in the whole video. However, I'm here as a problem communication, not a problem solver one, so yea, keep it that way if you want, this is only an opinion good luck man

THE LAST POINT ON KEEPING THE GAME IN A FINISHED STATE IS VERY GOOD

I needed this video. Thanks!

Great video! I would prefer numbers with a short title of each tip, sometimes they almost blend into each other and I’ll know how many of the 51 tips that are left :)

Great tips, thank you!

The last point is basically how you programm everything, be it webdevelopment, application development or game development. ALWAYS BIG TO SMALL. First step is always: Pen and paper. Plan what you're building. THINK about what you're building. The plan will change and adapt, that's fine. Think it through though. Every programmer that starts with code only will end up debugging for hours with spaghetti code that has grown because he forgot some dependencies in the project. Take the two hours. You'll be faster and more thorough with practice. Querying a huge amount of data that has to be shown to a user? Build the database, build the interface that queries, show the data in the shittiest table ever. Make sure it's performing adequately to the needs of the user. Make sure there are no security issues, query issues, false data etc. Once all that is done and reliable you can start adding design to the interface, create additional queries etc. Building a topdown shooter? Player controls first, Shooting second, Enemies third, Gamestate fourth. You now have a game you can optimize (which is way more fun than building the rump of it) to your liking. Don't touch the basic blocks unless absolutely necessary.

I was told to lean more into the customization system in my RPG by a play tester. Mostly because each customization on a weapon/armor does a different thing. I do like this idea of customization and might even use it to bridge gaps between strengths and abilities and stuff

Hi! I’m a ten year old who is trying to make a game, kinda like Changed, this was a huge help! Also, if you wanna play it. (It’ll be released when I’m like 15, in 5 years, since I feel as if I’m far too young to be making a game, so I’m just animating it, planning it out, ect, the mascot of the game is a demon with black skin, red eyes, and a box on their head, a pink box, you can communicate with the mascot in a secret room, he just says some dumb stuff, here’s all the quotes he says: i am a box, a member of society, please do not disturb this box. (you have unlocked a rare quote!) | i am box, do not disturb box | BOX HAD ENOUGH (bad ending!!!!) | why must you disturb a box? (you have unlocked a rare quote!) | no (what) | BOX MUST ATTACK! FEAR BOX! I AM LOYAL, PEASANTS! (what did you do to the box) | alright, i didnt sign up to be constantly bothered, i regret getting this job, im going back to california. (???) | why u do this | leave me alone | go away | box no like | stop | i said go | stop bother box | ahhhhhh | flamenco (flamenco ending) | box forgives! but please stop bothering box! (good ending) | zzzzzzzzzzz | box hates you (D:) | box come in peace! :( | hi! | please stop! :( | weeeeeeeeeeeeeiiiiooi (drunk box ending) *yeah, this is good.* (If you have any suggestions on other things Box says, leave it in the replies, also, if you want a bit of a backstory on Box, tell me!)

Hey Jonas, currently I am clicking randomly through your videos and have a lot left to watch. How many games have you coded including raw but playable drafts? At what age did you start? Also what I missed here was that there should ALWAYS be something to do during the loading screen. I remeber Horizon Dawn Zero that had relatively huge loading times even on a PS4 Pro with SSD and NOTHING TO DO but stary at the loading bar.

You already found my "My gamedev journey vid" so I'm gonna skip the questions I guess. Having something to do during loading screens is a good tip for sure.

"it is a good idea to let player's know what to do and be very clear about that" *remember to break the rules though sometimes, dark souls did just that*

I'm actually thinking about either making a short animation of it or just making a game in the future, a project called: "Last Flame" about these two dragon gods Naivasuki known as the dragon goddess of mercy and creation, and Bahamut the dragon god of judgement and (Still deciding) it will start off with narration showing runes of the dragon gods on cave walls, probably saying: "Long ago, when the earth was young there were two dragons, Naivasuki...And Bahamut, they worked together and created everything we live on today, the air we breathe, the animals and more. But Bahamut grew jealous of her and grew corrupt becoming a beast, a monster.....He set the world aflame but she banished him before he destroyed any more. Perhaps they're still here? These great gods have long been forgotten to time..." And depending on which character you pick, changes the storyline. The two final bosses will be: "Naivasuki the goddess. And Runekiltasulu, the Berserk Plague Beast" Naivasuki will have 120x health and Runekiltasulu will have 190x health depending on which mode you pick. (Like easy, medium, and hard mode) And once you beat the game, you will now be able to play as Runekiltasulu and fight in titan or god mode, becoming giants fighting Naivasuki, Bahamut and other characters. Anybody got any tips?

Needs faster pace! Like speedrun!

My only problem with most of these "tips" is that they all have to do with the small-scale, rapid-iteration, "soulless blocks in a vacuum focused on a single mechanic" take on game development. In other words, extremely basic Game Jam 101 stuff meant for architect-brained game-mechanic-oriented Introverted Intuition types (INTJs, etc.) who just want to invent new mechanics all day and never spend any time fleshing things out, making content, or actually caring about presentation at all. Sparkly blocks in a void with thumping music and an interesting game mechanic or two is interesting for like... 30 seconds. And then you realize that it looks and feels exactly like the other 1000 "indie games" you've played that look and feel exactly like it. I don't know what I'm really complaining about, I guess. It just feels like I have yet to come across a "Tips for Game Design" or "Things I wish I knew as an amateur game dev" or "how to make an indie game" video that has to do with real, deep, interesting game projects that are more than just the result of a weekend jam. All of these videos are fine for tinkerers that don't mind starting new projects every 5 minutes and discarding their old work to move onto some new idea every week. But I'm not that. I have a clear vision for my game, that has story and world and mechanics and art and animation and music and and and. My game is like Ori, Hollow Knight, Shovel Knight, Jak & Daxter, MegaMan X, even a little Kingdom Hearts inspiration. There's depth, there's interesting world and story and characters and things that are so far beyond just mechanical squares in a void, and I rarely rarely rarely EVER see interesting or, more importantly, HELPFUL videos or articles that talk about the deep intricate details that I need to know about in order to make those kinds of games. There might be a post mortem or two that helps with some philosophical ideas, or maybe a nugget or two from a one-off interview or something, but there are no guides, no resources, no anything. All there is in terms of helpful, educational materials in this regard has to do with specific game-dev tools like Unity and its features, or specific programming structures. But how am I, as a total amateur, supposed to know which of these hundreds of tools or methods to use would be ideal for my problem case without trying out and testing every single one? Every time I try to google a more open ended question, the only answers you get are things like, "Oh, well, that depends." Or worse yet, "Why are you even trying to do that?" -_- Anyway. Your videos are great, and very well put together, and I have learned a lot from them. I think my favorite tip in this video was simply the "don't make your blacks pure black." Now THAT was a useful idea. I'll just continue on in my quest to find more relevant teaching tools that will help me with my specific game-dev needs.
