I had a ridiculously detailed dream last night. When I woke up, I felt compelled to instantly start working on a crude game design document because I was so damn excited by the idea! Once I started writing, more exciting ideas started pouring out.

I am NOT a video game designer. I don't code. But I think this game idea has legs.

I've also learned to never ignore these ideas that originate in your dreams.

So I guess the big question is: NOW WHAT 🕹️ 🤔

@killyourfm Sign up with itch.io, outline the idea and ask for help :)

If you can give some rough genre I can look whether I can connect you with some Indie in that area.

@RyunoKi I would describe it as a roguelite driving game!

I'm definitely going to look into itch.io. And the community right here has already been helpful and invaluable -- that includes you. Thank you!

@killyourfm
Alright. Once my kids are in bed, I'm going to look through whom could be a good fit. Perhaps not directly to help you but as someone who is deeper in that community.

Small World Phenomenon ftw!

@killyourfm
Soo…

Did you know there is a Mastodon instance over at mastodon.gamedev.place ?

I follow some game art there.
For example, @badgertracks recently shared some images.

Then @McFunkypants is participating in challenges which will also get together people from different areas.

@killyourfm
But that's not the only gamedev related instance!

gamedev.lgbt is similar in its rules albeit a bit more relaxed.

Again, gameart has made me notice @madame_etrange for example.

In terms of dev you can find @lampfairy there among others.

Thanks for the recommendations! I love that @McFunkypants is an "optimist" gamedev.
