Hey everyone,
I really need some help choosing what project to work on next. I'm a little stumped right now and would love to get your input.
First off, let's talk about what went wrong with Corrupt Wasteland. The game was just way too big. Since I'm the only person working on these projects, I can't make a game that massive again. I want to shift my focus back to projects like Corrupt Descent, where I can prioritize the overall quality of the experience rather than just adding a ton of content. When you try to pile on that much volume as a solo developer, you inevitably run into a ton of issues.
Now, let's talk about the prototype I started about a week ago. I was looking at games from other solo developers for inspiration and came across those looping anomaly games where you roam an area and try to spot changes. For my version, I decided to use elevators. Enemies would spawn as an anomaly, and you'd have to rush back to the elevators before they catch you. It's an interesting concept, but I feel like it might end up missing something.
This is where I need your help. I have no clear idea what to make next and I really want your input this time. It would be absolutely amazing if you could drop some detailed game ideas in the comments. I'll look through them, pick a couple of the most popular suggestions, and put together a poll in a few days so everyone can vote.
Please let me know if you think the anomaly game is actually a good idea worth pursuing. If anything, I would love to make another game in the same style as Corrupt Descent, or even jump straight into Corrupt Descent 2.
As a reference for my recent idea, I left a very small early build of the anomaly game attached below.
Can't wait to read your ideas!
