This year we wanted to try actually making games rather than playing them (although we'll never give up playing) , the original plan was a game we still want to make, but a big idea with no skills is not a good place to start.
So we started with learning how to make a game (learning about Godot, Unity etc), and then after rinsing YouTube tutorials, came back to 'what can we make as out first game'.
Clare's Escape is built in Gamemaker, it started in Jan 2024 and will hopefully hit Steam in July. It's been an exciting, energising journey. We'll share lots more soon.
