After 20 Years in Gamedev, I’m Making My Own Cozy 3D Platformer Solo
I’ve been working in the games industry for 20 years - and now I’m building my own game. Shallow Pond is a cozy 3D platformer where you move seamlessly between land and water, uncover secrets, and explore vibrant, playful worlds. In this video, I’m sharing a look at the game and my journey as a solo developer. If you like cozy games or indie dev stories, feel free to follow along.
