Gamedev from Scratch 1: Scaffolding
I really like watching other people do game dev from scratch. If this is a space you’re into and are fine with an nonstandard opinionated developer, I’d recommend Molly Rocket’s YouTube channel.<p>However; I shutter in horror at the thought of embarking on this journey for myself. This is a statement about me rather than a general statement. I know I fixate on problems and “perfect” solutions at the detriment of my project’s velocity e.g. TDD for my game projects —- especially since most tutorial code isn’t written with testing in mind. I highly suspect I would be doomed to misery if I tried.<p>Maybe if/when I get more skilled. I feel like projects like these are an expression of programmers who are very comfortable and experienced with writing complex systems.
