Love this, Wish more game dev videos would talk more about their art styles an progress. love the art!!!

I know this is more of a technical question. I was wondering what your thoughts are on OpenGL vs Vulkan as an indie game developer? I have been learning OpenGL on macOS, which limits me to I think OpenGL 4.1? If I wanted to deliver an indie game on par with what you have done, how much of a limitation is this?

I’m very curious, what do you like better about eclipse to use it over IntelliJ? 🙂 also, do you have any recommendations/resources for making a game engine for personal game projects? I think it would be so fun to make a 2D game engine with Java and then make a game with it 🙂 loving your dev logs

Looks great

@OddlingCore December 26, 2024 - 12:58 pm

I think putting the plants on a hexagonal grid is much more in line with biomimicry and permaculture rather than old timey inefficent unnatural agricultural farming, sustainable farming and food forests are something important to our future as beings and would love to see it in simulation games (i never see soil regenerative and sustainable farming in games in Steam, only ever grids and chemicals and deforestation)

The so cold "safe art style" is so good even on current state, that you should be accused of fraud by saying "I'm not an artist"! 😃 Great work! Crossing my fingers for the project. 😊 Best regards.

@gamefarm7652 December 26, 2024 - 12:58 pm

i love the artstile

@fishraider7897 December 26, 2024 - 12:58 pm

Is the game engine based on LibGDX?

@Yash_27 December 26, 2024 - 12:58 pm

Great video and very useful. Hope you could monetize it!

@luigiistratescu2756 December 26, 2024 - 12:58 pm

Hey, I'd love to contribute to your game for free. Do you need artwork? Let me know and I can make some for you, any type of plants, vegetables, houses, trees, furniture, etc. whichever way you want it. I just enjoy doing it and it gives me an excuse to keep using Blender.

New art style looks really cute!

@dominikozga4308 December 26, 2024 - 12:58 pm

thanks man you are great. you got a new subscriber 🙂

@chaselewis5372 December 26, 2024 - 12:58 pm

Things like butterflies or birds moving around would do a lot. Definitely need farm animals to be taken care of. A static scene will just feel bad. Also a good sound effect and splash effect when watering could be a nice flair.

@syaqilazreen7202 December 26, 2024 - 12:58 pm

Good

@edoardovalenti2041 December 26, 2024 - 12:58 pm

Is there any tips you can offer?

@NeilRoy December 26, 2024 - 12:58 pm

I'm thinking about the art style. With a city builder, we have man made structures so having very hard, sharp edges makes sense. But for a farming game, a more organic look makes more sense with software, more… well… organic edges etc… not so straight and engineered. Nice work anyhow.
