Line War has single player skirmish AND co-op mode now? Instant buy from me. Congratulations @Imphenzia on this huge new update! I expect you'll be getting a big crop of new players soon. store.steampowered.com/app/1309610/Li…
Can anyone tell me anything GOOD about this guy? Serious responses only. I know everyone is piling on the "another EA guy" train, but I'd like to at least start by offering some benefit of the doubt. Any redeeming qualities or (not ironic) silver linings here?

I was SO MAD when I discovered debuggers/breakpoints. It was like the people (allegedly) teaching me had betrayed me by not informing me of their existence. IDEs too. I get that they wanted us learning concepts and not tools, but so many wasted hours hunting missing semicolons...

What's up with the "abrasive narcissist gatekeeper" archetype that you sometimes see in experienced developers?
A solo indie dev hits a GRAND SLAM and people in the comments here (not Max) are dunking on his code architecture. Players. Don't. Care. He's making a card game, not a missile guidance system. He focused on the player experience and shipped something great. There's a lesson here.
The Return of the King... 👑
Very happy to see @infiniwar in issue #5 of @debugmagazine. Happened to get really great placement too! It's a small thing (literally), but every little bit helps.
Some people dunking on this ("if you're not having fun, your players won't") but I think a story driven horror/exploration game is an exception. The first time experience/unknown factor IS the fun there, and the dev can't really have that like a player can.

As a person who has absolutely no idea about game development (but as a gamer) I find it fascinating 🫡❤️
Ever wonder what 2 years of solo, part-time development of an indie game looks like? Well in my case, it looks like this: (Link in the replies) #indiegame #solodev #rts
@vmenezio haha yeah, typescript is the only reason I'm able to do anything in this ecosystem
Yes, yesterday we released the single-player and co-op release on Steam, and a new handicap system that allows matchups like 2v1 and people of different skill levels can play together =) Thanks!!

@joe_theis I planned a year because that's how long I could fund, but it can be as long as Kenshi or Rimworld if things go well. But that's another essential thing to mention that in today's market I wouldn't assume EA will pay for itself.
Figured this could be useful for more people. IMO, Early Access is critical for an open game that offers a different experience than the ones already out there. Even more so for procedurally generated sandbox games because every player may play differently and in different…
@ArturSmiarowski Hey, Artur. May I ask how useful is EA being for Soulash 2? I mean, you already have a strong vision of what the game is and will become. So EA is more like bug catching and refining ideas? Thanks in advance! 🍻
@FreyaHolmer Jim's promoted to board chairman, so if anything, I think he ends up with more influence there.
@joe_theis Here's a post I made on Reddit: reddit.com/r/Unity3D/comm… The best part is Jim Whitehurst is now on the board of directors and it appears there's a change happening, a shift towards focus on product and building quality things again.
