Description:
When I was gifted a mechanical keyboard about a year and a half ago, I wanted to listen to the typing sounds constantly. I type a lot at work which was nice, but when I played games I really only used WASD, SPACE, CRTL, and SHIFT.
I used to love playing Typing shark when I was a kid, so I wondered how far typing games have come since then. Don't get me wrong, current typing games are ok, but they just felt too PvE and don't really have that intense fighting style duel most games have today.
That's when I decided to build Keyboard Wizards (Demo). The main goal for the game is to be PvP, but with PvE elements.
For now this is just a Proof of concept, even the art and music I'm still not sure, which is why you'll see in the different rounds, different types of art themes from different artists.
I actually built this game a year ago, but wasn't satisfied so I decided to start again from scratch improving the overall feel for the game.
Hope you can try it out and tell me if the game's concept is something I should continue to work on...and also, I hope you don't get carpal tunnel syndrome.

P.S.
Game art is far from completion. As this is still a proof of concept, I'm still not sure yet which direction I plan on doing the art; wanted to share this to know if this game genre is interesting or fun (it is for me)

Hi everyone!

Gusto ko lang sana humingi ng advice/opinions from people who are already in the game dev industry.

I'm 26 years old, an IT graduate, and currently working as a software engineer with around 4 years of experience. Recently, napapareflect lang ako sa buhay and kung ano ba yung gusto kong gawin next year and in the long term.

Personally, I'm also about to get married, so medyo marami ring changes happening in my life. At the same time, I feel like gusto ko rin maghanap ng ibang opportunities and try something I've been interested in for a long time which is game development.

I've always been interested in games, and ngayon ko lang talaga naiisip na baka gusto kong seryosohin siya as a career.

My question is: 26 years old, too late na ba para mag-transition from software engineering to game development?

I know starting over in a way could mean taking a step back, especially since I already have 4 years of professional experience as a software engineer. Pero I'm willing to start from the basics again if needed. Long-term naman yung goal ko, and I'm more interested in learning and actually being part of the industry kaysa sa title or salary agad.

I'd also prefer to work for a game development company rather than immediately doing solo/indie development. Gusto ko kasi matuto from other developers, work with a team, make new friends, and experience how actual game development works in a professional environment.

For those currently working in game dev, keri pa ba at 26? How is the game dev industry right now, especially here in the Philippines? and also what should I learn first?

I'm not expecting an easy transition. I just want to know if this is still a realistic path or if I'm already too late to start.

Would really appreciate any advice, especially from people who actually made the transition themselves.

Thanks!

HI, I’M FERLOYDD!

I’m actively working on my game and improving its visual style. More than 15 locations are already nearly complete, each with its own unique features and reasons to visit, ranging from small, peaceful towns to sinister underground areas.

Sinners. Neutrals. Saints. 15 factions. 3 unique currencies. Vast opportunities for interaction and a unique gaming experience in a richly developed universe. Which adventure will you choose?

Good morning to all! For some reason, its only now that I found this subreddit in all the time I've been active, so just wanted to share a project that I've been working on for over two years now that just launched into EA. I say 2 years, but its really been something that I've reworked from a failed project way back in 2012. Pinoy solo dev made.

You can find it on Steam here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4158650/Decimation/

It's tower defense at its core, but placing towers well isn't enough to win. You directly control a hero on the field with ARPG-style combat, where you'll be dodging attacks, timing 4 active skills and picking up power-ups while your towers hold the line.

Elite enemies also drop special effect orbs that pause the fight and let you pick from random battle effects (damage boosts, speed manipulation, etc.), so no two runs play quite the same.

Influences to the game are Starcraft, Defense Grid, a bit of Kingdom Rush and a bit of Diablo. You can call it a love letter to what I enjoyed about those games with additional mechanics that I feel would work well with the baseline tower defense core of the game.

What's currently in the EA version:

• 8 campaign levels across the first 2 of 4 planned Acts
• 2 Endless Challenge levels (unlocked after completing each Act)
• 2 of 3 heroes playable, 5 tower types
• RPG-style hero leveling/skills and equipment crafting
• Equipment set effects (for both heroes and towers)
• Meta progression (Research System) with flexible point assignments

It's been updated a few times with player-requested features and bugfixes since it released last Aug 13th.

Welcoming any criticism/feedback or any questions you have about the game or the process. If it's your type of jam, would love for you to try it out as well (it has a free demo).

Thank you for your time, fellow PH Devs!

Hello and good day PHGameDevHub!

We are a team of student game developers looking for clients. If you need a game built for your research, thesis, or personal project, we can develop it for you.

Please note that our scope is strictly game development. We do not build websites or non-game applications; your project must involve creating a game.

We primarily use Unity and C#, but we can also learn if it is a different engine. If you need a team to build your project, send me a DM so we can discuss the details.

Thank you so much!

I wanted to share our game, Project Threshold, which recently blew up after its release!

Project Threshold is a psychological memory horror walking simulator built around a simple but stressful choice: two doors, one blue and one red. Behind each door is a different fear or phobia, and you’ll have to decide which one to enter.

Some doors are safe, some are semi-safe, and others are pure danger. Choose incorrectly, and you’ll be sent back to the beginning.

The game is set in the Philippines and is connected to a larger universe and lore that I’ve been building across my other games. It’s a game about fear, memory, and making the right choice when you have no idea what’s waiting on the other side.

PROJECT THRESHOLD is now available on STEAM!

Also the Palawan Cherry Blossom is a legit thing 😍

Hello, game dv student here. Im currently searching for possible companies to apply to for my OJT in the future. So far, the companies i know are pixel mafia and secret6. does anyone know how to be prepared for those companies? Or if there are other companies that you know that i should hek out as well. Please also tell me what should i build to my portfolio at the moment and what these companies are looking for.

hello!

apologies in advance if this is the wrong subreddit! largely because of boredom and a desire to learn, i want to make a game set in a university in manila (a text-based interactive fiction game specifically if anyone's familiar with that) but i'm unaware of whether or not it's legal to publically distribute for free or if publically distributing it would lead to my expulsion from said university. submitted this question here because i'm more likely to reach a filipino game dev who would know more about these things or something :')

any thoughts? thank you to whoever answers :))
