//about video
Over a whole year, 365 Days, 8760 Hours, or 525,600 Minutes. That's a long time to create something and over this past year, I've made 7 games. All of these games took around 1-2 months to make and complete and about half of them are multiplayer. In this video, I take the time to go through each game one by from Candyland, my first game this year to Stuck Inside, my most recent project. I'm super happy with how these games turned out and I'm glad I've grown this year. If you wanna see more of what I create next year - Subscribe
//about games
For most of the games I use Unreal Engine 4 which is a game engine primarily used for 3D games. It has a bunch of good features but not so much for 2D games.
For some games like Sonic Frontiers, I used Godot, just to try it out and it was a good engine. I personally preferred Unreal Engine as my main as it has more features but for any game that is 2D, I'd much rather use Godot or Unity.
I've also made my own game without an Engine in Java using a Library called LWJGL or Light-Weight Java Game Library. LWJGL gives you bindings to C++ libraries like OpenGL, OpenAL, and OpenCL, just to name a few.
In Candyland, I used SFML in C++. SFML or Simple and Fast Multimedia Library is binding to drawing 2D sprites on your screen. It also gave me bindings to a networking library in order to make a multiplayer card/board game.
//about me
If you do not know me, I'm an upcoming Software Engineer currently in college, and on this channel, you will find stuff I work on like Video Games / Game Dev (Devlogs) and other projects like Websites, and other software-related projects. I mostly do Software related things because I suck at electrical engineering and I didn't go to school for that. If you like what you hear, you can come along for the ride by clicking subscribe.
