My first game, but is it any good.
It started off as a bit of fun when I recreated the old ZX Spectrum game, Cruising on Broadway for my sister’s birthday for her to play on her mobile.
That led me to want to create my fav game of the same time, also on the Speccy, Deathchase. I then mashed it with my other favourite game of the time, the arcade game Outrun and the pyramid routing.
After a few trials I eventually settled on doing it in Godot with a view to possibly putting it on Steam.
It’s far from finished and I thoroughly enjoy playing it, but I don’t know if that because I’m proud of what I’ve done or if it’s because it’s actually any good.
I’m enjoying the development. I create the graphics and assets myself using Blender, Elevenlabs and Suno for the sfx and music. Claude is the brains behind the godot scripts as I don’t have the skills for that.
How do I go about getting feedback and help with play testing? I want honest feedback and input to improving it, but I’d hate to have it ripped to bits and and lose all my motivation for it. But on the other hand I’d love to get a good game onto Steam and have others enjoy playing it - and may be bring in some money at the same time.
I’ve even gone as far as creating a gameplay trailer. I feel like I’m going through the motions, but don’t really know what I’m doing. 😂
