I really relate to this video. I too learned programming in my teens by making the same project over and over again as well, constantly being unsatisfied halfway through and starting over. I work full time as a developer now so I never find the time to make fun stuff like this and, while I am happy with where I ended up, you are very lucky that you have the potential to make a living from KZread making these fun projects.

Huge Kirby and Mario Maker fan, so I would LOVE to see this project continued and released! The only Kirby maker game that I've seen released has one style, no minibosses or bosses, and very rarely receives updates nowadays, so having a new one would be amazing. This one already looks super good, too!

I don't know even the littlest thing about programming and coding, yet you inspired me to sit down on the computer, download a programming engine and start my own project, a very new and unique kirby game! Thank you so much!

I would love to see more updates, looking forward to the addition of abilities and seeing what else you implement!

Doing the same thing over and over is normal for software developers, especially for game devs. Sometimes, everything has to be rewritten, which usually means throwing away days, weeks, or even months of hard work. That's why no one should ever get emotionally attached to the code they write.

This and Pizza Tower were the two main things I remember vividly in SAGE 2019. Nice to see it like this! Would love to have a comeback!

this project looks so cool. i think you should continue it, add more modern 2d styles, make it more polished, make some template levels... if you release this one day the kirby community is gonna celebrate...

Or they might say no but take the fact that people seem to want it as a consideration for potentially releasing a commercial kirby plaformer maker. That is probably the best case they would allow. the other thing that might slide is if you made an entire set of original graphics and removed any trademarks. Someone made a zelda-style game with a full map editor. But, they didn't use any Nintendo IP directly. It is somewhat similar looking but not too close. They actually ended up getting an all-clear for that. So, if you actually wanted to get somewhere trying for something similar is your best bet.

Can I just say as a new programmer, I really love that you talked about restarting the same project repeatedly to build skills? I've heard many times that you should never start your dream project until you've practiced on loads of things you didn't care about, and it's so hard to do it that way. I might have to try this approach!

Here’s my recommendation, as someone who learned in a different manner: Instead of coming up with one massive “dream” project, come up with smaller, well-defined small projects that you still will enjoy doing. There is a MASSIVE benefit to actually *finishing* projects rather than giving up halfway through. With my approach, I only started projects that I knew I could complete within a reasonable timeframe. Definitely only work on things you like, but it is best if the things you like aren’t massive in scope.

I wanted this for so many years, thank you so very much. Please keep working on it! Kirby will always be my favorite childhood game series, and to be able to create levels for something that I loved as a kid, now for my own kids, would be a blessing.

I love how the naming convention grew. Most people think to just fully copy the Super Mario Maker name with a single word change, but something about adding in the other common word in the Kirby names made it sound like it came to life in title. "Kirby's Dream Maker" is such a great name for it, since even parodies I saw just said "Kirby Maker" or "Super Kirby Maker" and I feel like the name you chose could have convinced me those were real. I would very much love to see this become a finalized product. Though, you would have to be careful with how much you share of it. A good advice is to follow in the footsteps of the AM2R project and detail it in wording, but not showcasing besides discrete details. This kind of process helps the project see proper finalization. And at the end of the day, fan game are always okay, especially if you are not profiting from it. I would be a full supporter of this seeing completion.

Genuinely really inspiring, I've been thinking of trying to learn to program for a while but I've been thinking about how frustrating it'll be to be unable to do the things I want to. But its really cool to see where you started and where you are now, so I might give it a shot!

believe it or not, I was in the exact same situation in 2017 with the exact same project idea. the only difference is that I gave it up pretty quickly 👀 good to see that someone actually made it real, this looks really nice!

This video resonates a lot with me, as someone who's also had a dream project they've been working on and remaking repeatedly over the last so many years (since about 2016 for me). I'd definitely love to see you give another crack at this project! It's very inspiring!

humble beginnings projects like the way you started is also how i began coding, and you're right, learning to re make the same project with increased skills, iterative processes, and improving each time is a great way to learn, to master or hone new skills, and to increase understanding, starting from the bare bones square that can barely move or run and can only jump, to fully live edited levels and systems. This is how you get good at this stuff.!

Amazing work. One thing I'd suggest to speed up level-making is to have a toggle for "auto-draw" which would automatically complete the tiling, like the corners on that grass.

This is really impressive, I really love what you've done and it's very inspiring to me. I reckon you should add a 'box tool' that makes rectangles for things like the level floor without you having to make each individual tile, it'd put plants and fences on automatically. Or maybe make some kind of abstract level floor tile that automatically gets an outline and variations in it without the user having to do anything, this would also make it easier to switch between versions maybe

Impressive I started just as you did. Using python and pygame to make stuff. And about a week ago I started to make my own game engine in c++ and sfml. good luck on your adventure

That's awesome!

I've been a pro software dev since 2015 and you nailed it in regards to starting a project over again to learn something new and to improve on it. When NodeJS first came out a LOT of companies took it as an opportunity to totally rewrite their old PHP software. It gave them a good platform to think of it in a more holistic manner, and to make use of techniques that they couldn't use before. Any time you maintain something you lose the ability to do that. Starting anew helps you keep things small and modular and lets you make use of your new skills and what you've learned. Good job on figuring that out!

Ever since fan projects like megaman maker I've longed for a kirby maker. I'd absolutely love for you to keep working on this, and hopefully make it public someday, so we can all make levels and share them with people. As for a possible feature, I'd say copy abilities are pretty essential. I'd also love to see an amazing mirror style, since it's my favourite kirby game. But I get thats just personal preference.

I'm down to see this get fully realised, I most cannot wait for the kirby troll levels!

I'm glad you were willing to share such a personal project and show the progress of it. If you wind up doing more with it I'd love to see another video on it!

I think it's great you've done back to a project again and again, to get a bit better each time. I think you're right that anything we creatives make will always fall short of our dreams--but it's infinitely better than not making the thing at all. Good luck improving even further! 👍

I'd love to see more of this project in the future! I've only been a programmer myself for a year and a half, so I completely relate to the first half of this video. I've been hard focusing on one game based off- IRONICALLY enough, Kirby's Pinball Land, for almost the entire time I've been programming. Keep at it, I think this could be amazing!

Really cool project! One way you might be able to take this even further is with adaptive tiling. The whole pre-placed collision thing reminds me of my first few revisions of Ponpoko 3d and the various mistakes and dumb design decisions that I made along the way like having all of my collision tied to a single game object.

You learned a lot AND made something amazing! 😊💛 It is important to have a goal you are passionate about or else I would like to think that you might not have come this far! Sad and strange how Nintendo has not done this yet with many more of their franchises. Just imagine the possibilities players would create with Kirby, Metroid, Zelda and more!

My 8 years old son loves Kirby and asked me a lot of times if there's a Kirby Maker, so please keep on the good work and release it, my son will be very happy!!

For some reason, this being your first ever project and ending up as something so good is somewhat emotionnal. Would love to see more updates, this looks very promissing!

This is such a cool project !!!! I hope you keep working on it and eventually release it :D !!

What you've made is amazing! Would love to see you keep going, and maybe some devlogs along the way! Hope to see more of your projects

I would so endorse your project! It's amazing what you achieved so far man! The only thing that scares me, it's "Mr.Anti-fun" (A.k.a Nintendo), I believe they wouldn't let you do so. It's sooooo amazing, it reminds me a little about Megamaker too (Custom Megaman Playable Level maker) And what I loved about their project it's the fact you could submit maps and get it rated by people, making it a great experience for creative minds and fans of the game. Could be parkour maps, adventures maps and so on. And of course I never seen multiplayer in old kirby games but I do believe that would be a neat and cool addon being able to play with friends, just for the sake of having a good time. There could be maps meant for 2 players coop, to make player #1 to trigger a lever/button so the other player #2 can access another room or something opening the way as well for player #1 Ideas are endless but what you cooked so far is solid and could really affect your reputation in a positive ways if you try to apply somewhere as "X" programmer for "Y" projects. Imagine saying "Yeah, you know that Kirby Maker game that some content creators played on KZread, Twitch, etc. Well I'm the one that made it" that would be so good on your resume. :) Anyway, thanks for reading me! Sub+ well deserved! Have a great one!

This looks awesome. You did a really great job on making this. I'd love to see what you do next with this, and maybe even make this public. 👍

People give up on projects so easily. I command you for continuing work on it! I think having the ability not to quit even when mishaps happen, but knowing when continuing is not worth it or valuable is a big skill people need to learn. I've taken on once a huge 15 month mod project and a 1-2 year server project as a noobie in both. The 1-2 year game server project has been a huge adventure and I put my heart and soul to it, planning to branch out the game server to multiple game servers and then to multiple games and so on. Though, it was simply too ambitious and required too much of my own investment into it where it ended up becoming not enjoyable, drama-filled, traumatizing and overall no one played on my game servers anymore, so I decided to quit there. That was a good decision, and I don't wish to come back to it, even though I regret deleting my files due to the nostalgic aspect of it (NEVER delete huge projects completely!!). While continuing it and "achieving" the goal I set out originally to do might sound clever here - In this scenario it's not that the goal wasn't reachable, it's just that it wasn't worth it and would provide more bad than good for me. (Sad it took me two years to learn) My second 15 month mod project was a mod for SOMA which was highly ambitious and was essentially making a dating simulator in a horror game. Though it seemed never-ending and scarily big, I learned that by taking breaks from time to time, sorting my code and making it easy to use, and giving myself smaller goals to work with to achieve the big goal was the key, and I actually managed to finish it! It's well polished and feels amazing. Keep in mind I was a very big noob at first when it came to these projects and didn't really know what I was doing, but persistence is key! It's like not knowing what cos/sin is in math but slowly overtime using it in code and learning about it even if you take breaks or have mishaps will eventually lead you to understand it. I would also like to mention that I have learned a lot from these projects and doing them changed me as a person and made me learn a lot about management, people, code, humor, writing and enjoyment, even though some of my projects ended up failing (like the 1-2 year one). Whoever's reading this, keep up persistence! :)

You had a incredible progression on this project, i would love to see this evolve into something bigger.

As a learning experience this is a really cool project. I would recommend to detach it from any Nintendo IP asap if you intend going forward with this. You can still have similar (nearly 1:1 copies) mechanics just give it another coat of paint and name.
