Since #GDC24 is just around the corner and everyone is in a "let's watch some talks" mindset: François Fripiat gave an expert talk for Flanders Game Hub on #Indiegame audio and what every dev needs to know. From asset creation, to implementation, to working with existing sound libraries and paying composers to make custom music for your game.

POWER_CIRCLE_FOREST_RUIN_001 - I know I jumped again, LOL - but I had an Idea pop into my head while working with Niagara in Unreal. And I could finally bring this portion of the level to life as I see it in my head. So I started a quick mock up and with found the perfect helpful tutorial on Coreb Games that had a great Magic Circle jpeg with Niagara, thanks guys, for the helpful tweaks I needed. This is just a quick first couple of hours and will do more tomorrow. #unrealengine #gamedesign #leveldesign #Corebgames

Made the classic game of Tic Tac Toe in Rive. Used few sound effects from Rive itself and Pixabay to make it audio responsive.

What an irony! A company that creates software for letting millions work from home is now making personnel return to the office.😀 And yes, it's a common trend, I'd say.

Players are inattentive! That's not because they stupid, it's because every single game session is uniqe and filled with non-determined events: player can have totally different last game experience, mood, current environment, amount of free time, expectations (!), wishes, color perception, outer lighting, move perceprion, angle of view, size of the screen and more and more and more. So, if you expect something to be noticed and kept in mind, make sure you put it on the observable place and give player time and focus and a bold reason to learn. I imagine, you need to show a hundred things to your players. No one promised it will be easy, so brave yourself and be patient.
