In this episode we talk with indie game developers Nolan and Adam about the weird and creative side of game development. From viral projects like 1 Million Checkboxes to building pixel art games and experimental multiplayer ideas, we dive into how developers actually make games, where ideas come from, and why making lots of small projects can lead to big breakthroughs. We also discuss indie game dev culture, programming tools, game jams, and the unexpected paths that lead people into creating games.
