Ask A Developer! Interviewing Crowsworn, Haiku and Zapling Bygone Devs
376I know nothing about creating video games. Been playing games for 25+ years and I really wish I knew more about what goes into creating a game. Today we are going to interview developers from Crowsworn, Haiku the Robot and Zapling Bygone to talk about game design, metroidvanias, how to start an indie game and more!
This is going to cover the very basics of what each of these indie devs did in order to start their game. We will ask questions like:
- How to start an indie game?
- What engine is best for an indie game?
- In what order is a game made?
- How to learn game dev?
- Zapling Bygone is in the middle of their Kickstarter and ends Thursday May 20th. More than half way funded and demo available on Steam. Check out their project here:
