Can confirm; they're real fun. I've got a 7-year side-project I still grind on in the form of a voxel engine. The trick is to start small and have realistic expectations. Your progress will be glacially slow at first, and that's okay. Eventually, if you keep grinding, you'll have something awesome that you love working on.
If you want to check out my project there's a link in my bio.
- gabereiser 3y agoCan confirm the first two years will suck if you’re starting from scratch. Keep with it. By the 4th year you’ll be able to use all your abstractions to whip up prototypes over the weekend.
- PcChip 3y agothat's really cool! I'm doing an engine as side project too that I've just accepted will never be finished and it's only for fun :) /r/TranceEngine
- JKCalhoun 3y agoI checked out your side-project. > [ ] Do sound :'D Why bother with sound? Likely a dev would just pull in SDL_Mixer for game sound. Get on with the transparency. ;-)
