I will join in and likely make a game. I have several side projects that I have been tinkering around with, making and re-making, so this will be a good excuse to pick one and stay focused on it.
So is Devember starting early, or is this thread for getting hyped for the next 2 months?
My project for this Devember is CivSim, a colony builder / management type game.
This is a project that I have done some experiments with in the past to test some ideas on, but never really went any farther with it. The overall goal was to have something similar to Dwarf Fortress but with Gnomoria’s UI/UX. I chose to use this Devember to re-visit this project, get a fresh start, and hopefully come up with a decent working proof of concept by the end of December.
This is obviously a large undertaking so would like to establish some goals to shoot for. Something that is a challenge but also attainable by the end of December.
Goals:
Procedural World Generation
at least 1 Citizen for the Colony, with basic needs (Food / Water)
Basic Job System (Mining, Hauling, Foraging, Farming, Workshops)
Basic Crafting System
I decided to do this as a sort of Vlog, so have been recording each time I have been working on it. Below is a link for the 0.0001% that want to watch that.
