Follow my progress as I attempt to become a good game developer using a method I'm calling RIP (repetitive iterations for proficiency). This is a very long plan, but will cover every aspect of game development until I get good at everything.
The dungeon crawler challenge was fun, and I was happy with what I was able to get done in the time frame.
There was a lot I designed for the game but cut back to a minimum viable product in order to get the project done in time. Now I want to go in and add all that stuff in, and make a few …
Started late and finished late.
The method I went with for generating the dungeon had a lot of issues to work through. I've almost gotten them all worked out, there are only a few edge cases left to deal with. I created some sound effects, found some other ones from free and purchased librar…
I'm still a lot behind. I was hoping to have the random generation done by now. I still have time to get this done, but I was hoping to spend more time refining things and adding in some extra stuff.

I've added some shading to the main sprite and the rat so they fit in the world a little better:

Took me a lot longer than I wanted, but I converted the stats system from my JS prototype into UE4 blueprints. Why BP and not C++? I'm not really sure why, but that's how I did it.
Looks very noisy. I'm not that great at making BPs easily readable and looking good yet, but I think I'm ge…
I'm late to the game, but I'm going to attempt this challenge.
I made a small tile set for it. I also had a few versions of the main character before I settled on something very basic. The first version, I was going to use an asset I got through Humble Bumble, but it didn't fit right. So I t…
I've been making games since I was a kid, but I've only finished one game in the last twenty years. When I was young I kept it simple and was able to make a few MS-DOS games. Then I wanted to keep making it better. I've tried so many different strategies to get better at game development. I've t…
