Hi all,

I’ve decided to start a GameDev community as I didn’t see any on this instance or others.

What’s your relation with game development?

I’ll start; I’m a hobby game developer at most, mainly having experience with MonoGame (based on XNA) but I switched to C# + SDL2 (using SDL2-CS). Currently writing my own semi-engineless game (I don’t want to say that I’m building my own engine, but I do have some reusability for my own sake) while figuring out SDL2 and always looking for best practices.

I tried Unity, GoDot, Unreal Engine and more over the years, but as someone with a background in software development the freedom of the code-first approach always works better for me.

Welcome!

    Hi I’ve been pending membership for some time here. Just checking in if the mods knows about pending subscripting from new members?

      Hey, welcome! The pending subscription thing has been a bug with Lemmy itself, and it’s purely visual ie you should already be subscribed.

      Some people report unsubbing and trying again a few times fixes it, but not always. I believe it’s fixed in the currently rolling out Lemmy version anyway, but meanwhile we should in theory be showing up in your subscription feed just fine!
