10 Steps To Making a Successful Game

my pitch: a platformer shooter game about destroying the sun cause it is a deadly lazer.

Prototyping -> Testing -> Analyzing -> Refining

Its the circle of life

"If he managed it, so can you."

Not to entirely negate this, but recognizing the existence of survivorship bias is also important.

Awesome video!

This is a great list that I feel like I need to bookmark for later in life.

Is game maker studio still a viable option for making big complicated games or is it better to go with something like unity

"I'm not sponsered, I Just really like the book..." lol

im actually scared of what Glotsbear said

Does everything apply if I'm making a standart IAP minimalistic android game?

Idk imo this is getting a little repetetive, I feel like you've already said most of this.
For me this feels too similar to the "most important aspects of gamedev" video...

hey wtf kurwa poland isnt that bad

Wow, this video was so professional! Great job Jonas!

INZANE!

Got to pick up this book! Thank you for sharing your insights about it. 😁

I feel like the world went to shit when you slowed down on YT uploads. Your general vibe and energy reminds me of a time before this pandemic. I appreciate you, Jonas

Hey Jonas please make a tutorial how sort the Programm code maybe some Tipps how you managed the overview from big code parts

Other idea where I'm very interested in is how many scripts you should have and what can be put in one or what should be separated thats very helpful

Sehr guter Kanal und viel Erfolg bei deinem Spiel :D

If it was that simple... Don't forget about the chance factor which could represents 80%..

Wow, well this was totally demoralizing. How the fuck is someone supposed to do all of this?

Super informative as usual! Thank you for sharing pieces of that book.
Looking forward to will you snail

good info!

Interessantes Video. Nach einer längeren Pause bin ich mal wieder auf deinen Kanal gegangen und beschäftige mich seit 2 Tagen wieder mit Unity. Du hast mittlerweile einige Abonnenten dazu bekommen :)

The music for WYS is awesome! Any chance that it will be available via Spotify & Co?

I really really want to get into game dev. I'm a web dev right now which is boring as all hell. I probably should participate in a game jam or something

Hey Mr.Jonas ... I need help...or something idk I'm 15 and I want to start game development... I've wanted this for a really long time ...I've never moved ...until now I'm downloading unity at the moment I'm going to start with one of the micro games ... I've watched your vids for really long and loved every bit of it and wanted to get some !
Anyway ... I don't have that much time to work on it ...but one day at week is Better than no days a week !
Thank you Jonas thank you !

Your videos are getting better each time :0
Do you have an editor or do you do everything solo? Also your voice is very interesting for a narrator. Best wishes for Will you snail <3

will you snial?

what the orange plushie said at the end: SUMMON DARK BLOOD RITUAL TO GRANT ETERNAL PAIN TO THOSE WHO HAVENT WISHLISTED WILL YOU SNAIL!!!!

A delayed video game is possibly good, a rushed video game is always bad.

Love your content. Thanks for playing my Tower Climber game when I tagged you on Twitter

So informative video, thank you for the effort!

This TOTALLY helped me man! Thx!

S t a n d N a m e

[S o c k R e v e a l]

YES

So um... that skit at the end... Which step from these is it?
Theory is all good and fun but we always need the power of example.

The last 20% often takes 80% of the time.

Make a free one level demo. As a buyer I want to see that the game runs smoothly and with comfortable controls and music on my PC. Without it I hesitate to buy the game and choose a competition game.

So much good information crammed into 10 minutes, thank you for this!

This was really good!
Very in-depth.

I'm an artist planning to make a game all by myself but I'm very young, I have no money and I don't know anybody. Just doing my research before I can convince myself that this isn't feasible lol. This video is very informative. Thank you!

you speak too fast to be understandable...geee

Good video

"Imagine being born in Belarus, escaped to Poland" A decent chunk of Belarusian IT folks, me included, don't have to imagine that xD

Thank you so much for reviewing the book, Jonas! You rock! Also, I love Islanders and can't wait for Will You Snail!
