- Devlog #4 Trying to Create the Perfect Gameplay Trailer for an Indie Game - 25 July 2018

I am a recent addition to the team and I am in charge of marketing. I was already friends with most of the team for more than ten years but I could only watch the amazing stuff they did from the sidelines as I was busy with different work. I took the first chance that I could and joined in on the fun when I was finally available.

You can understand why I wanted to make something better. Probably because indie game studios lack professiona…

The universe was in a hot, dense state. No, wait… Jokes aside, when we first came together as a team, we were only five people consisting of a coder, a sound engineer, two game designers, and an art designer. Our initial goal when forming Proud Dinosaurs was to make an isometric RPG game. It would be in a custom universe that was created by Özgür, one of our game designers, for a tabletop RPG world that we still play regularly. Later on, we wrote the general story, how everything begins for the player, how tutorials would work and scenes would play. Since Özgür has been moderating games in this universe for over ten years, we already had classes, skills, NPCs, cities etc. While we…
