Being a coder, i have a ton of friends who all aspire to create indie games in their spare time. I also know a couple of artistic friends with similar aspirations. I wish there was a platform for these two sets of people to ideate and join forces. Lists like this help, but it doesn't begin to answer all of the design/environment/modeling that is necessary for most games.
Even if, like the random saas projects many of us have in mothballs, no released project comes of it, almost everyone involved would likely make out positively from the experiences gained.
- pandapower2 8y agoVarious communities exist or have existed. NewGrounds used to be quite a mixing pot. There are various relevant reddit communities.
- Pfhreak 8y agoIsn't this what resources like the TIGSource forums are great at? https://forums.tigsource.com/ https://forums.tigsource.com/
- taneq 8y agogamedev.net?
- thrower123 8y agoGamedev.net is a great resource that I see come up very rarely on here. There is a lot of extremely ameteur posts there, but the community contains some incredibly knowledgeable people that give fantastic advice
- valeness 8y agoI am in the "Building MVP" stage of creating a platform for exactly this. Matching people of different disciplines to teams and projects they would be suited for, specifically in the gamedev space. Do you have any thoughts or wants/needs out of a platform like this? I would be happy to hear any input you'd have :)
