Hi all,

I’ve decided to start a GameDev community as I didn’t see any on this instance or others.

What’s your relation with game development?

I’ll start; I’m a hobby game developer at most, mainly having experience with MonoGame (based on XNA) but I switched to C# + SDL2 (using SDL2-CS). Currently writing my own semi-engineless game (I don’t want to say that I’m building my own engine, but I do have some reusability for my own sake) while figuring out SDL2 and always looking for best practices.

I tried Unity, GoDot, Unreal Engine and more over the years, but as someone with a background in software development the freedom of the code-first approach always works better for me.

Welcome!

    Hi, I’m an indie game dev, though my last successes in that field took place years ago. I was doing programming, game design, art and even music for my games. Now I’m trying to get back to it more seriously. I worked with Godot for some time, but recently I decided to write my own engine in Rust, because I’m a control freak and I like it low level.
