Hello.
I'm developing games as a hobby. I'm currently making my second game with Unity 2D.
My first game
is a game that I also wrote an article about on the site I developed. It was released on the Google Play Store and received harsh feedback from people around me ㅠㅠ
My second game is a "Necromancer Raising" game where you resurrect dead enemies and use them as minions.
It has almost the same functionality and volume as a commercial game. It has maps, stages, stories/tutorials, automatic battles, minion management, skills and VFX/SFX, idle battles, deck building, offline rewards, in-app purchases and ads. It covers most of the production-level features. Thanks to this, it took a long time to plan. I think I spent more than a month planning, designing, and scheduling. For characters, icons, especially VFX (particles), some are purchased from the asset store at a discount.
Currently, I'm in the final stage of Sprint 2, but because I started hastily, the scope has increased by about four times, and I've developed about 50 backlogs. After Sprints 3~4, most of the screens will be implemented, and hopefully, it will be released around July. This time, the goal is to release both the Play Store and the App Store for free.
Development uses a few n8n workflow pipelines where AI agents are given personas and work goals to implement backlogs. Roughly one backlog is completed every 25 minutes, and I check the results in Unity when necessary. It's not fully automated yet, but starting from Sprint 3, we plan to apply an environment that automatically develops multiple backlogs overnight.
I often worry if developing with AI is actually going astray. Although I consider my working method to be platformized, there are a few nights when I have sleepless nights because 1~2 agents make mistakes.
Is there anyone who finds it more fun to develop games than to play them? Wow, I've been taking a break from WoW for a year... I haven't even received the dungeon rewards yet haha. I'm too busy ㅠㅠ
