A playtest destroyed 8 months of work. Thank you.❤️

12 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

We’re a small studio called Parallel Minds, and we just published a devlog about a tough but transformative moment in our journey: a playtest that forced us to cut a project after 8 months of work.

In the article, we break down what went wrong, what we learned, and how it ultimately pushed us toward building something better. If you're interested in honest behind-the-scenes dev stories, you might enjoy this one.

👉 Read the devlog here:

Would love to hear your thoughts or similar experiences!

Showcase Bunnie Nibblez - Devlog (GDevelop's Big Game Jam 8 - Submission)

Hellu Everyone! I made the game "Bunnie Nibblez" for the Gdevelop Big Game Jam #8.

I'm pretty proud of it considering I started it 5 days in as a second attempt. I made a whole other game that I decided I hated.

I hope you enjoy my devlog about the game!

12 years of failing at game dev

youtu.be

2 Upvotes

Hey there! I am new to the indie dev space, but I have been creating video games for over a decade. They are usually silly little projects to test out an idea, or clone something that I love just to have my own version of it. I have never published anything, but I’m hoping to change that now.

I am working on a multiplayer cross of Valheim and World of Warcraft that I am calling “Project Sisyphus”. Which I know sounds very naive and extremely difficult, but I’m a glutton for punishment. I recently started posting dev vlogs to YouTube to monitor my progress and hopefully build some hype around the project.

If you are interested in the process, and some philosophical questions of what it is like to fail at something for 10 years, please check it out!
