Absolutely. Every failure is part of the journey — we learn, improve, and keep building until we get there. Thanks for the encouragement!
Np!
The demo I released was my first game, released it a few days back, started 8 months ago, and everything but the sfx and music I created, so the textures, assets and models were all me, it was tough, but when I look at it, it's so worth it and you will not regret it, and personally, games now days could use less pre made assets and more skills.
Yeah, I completely agree! I love making things myself too — that's actually how I ended up creating these assets in the first place. I'm also working on my own action roguelite, which is still very much a prototype right now.
At the same time, I think assets can be really useful for prototypes, game jams, learning, or just building something for fun. My goal is to gradually build a consistent asset system that developers can use together, while still leaving room for their own creativity.
But personally, I still love making things from scratch whenever I can. 😄
