Creating Your Own Game by Cloudd1: 2:54pm On Nov 19, 2015
Hi! Has any of you tried creating you own game? (Mobile phone, computer, HTML etc). If so, what was your experience and what IDE did you use?

I'm still new to programming and right now I'm using Game Maker: Studio but plan to move on to a more versatile IDE when I get some more experience.

This is my very first game, so don't expect it to be perfect, it's what I could produce as a beginner.

And do you have any idea which platform or category that's most suitable for indie developers without a marketing budget? The "flappy bird" genre would be very hard for example since there are a vast amout of games in that genre.

Do you think that would be pretty easy if I'm familiar with java?

Yap. It's pretty much the same. C# was cloned from Java but it has evolved beyond it.

Sorry if this question is off topic. When did you publish the game to Playstore?

If I was to do 3D games it would be unity all the way. But with simple 2D games I can't imagine Unity would be better, Game Maker actually is really easy.

Depends on if it's 2D cartoons or 3D.
For 2D cartoons, photoshop and after effects will be fine
