As Dusk Falls

Rating: 3/5 It’s an interactive, movie-style game, and I really enjoyed it on my first playthrough. However, the game doesn’t let you skip dialogue, and on the second playthrough it became frustrating. Having to sit through the same scenes and conversations again made it tedious and boring. I wanted to explore different paths, but the lack of dialogue skipping killed the experience. Because of this, I’m giving it a 3/5 rating. ...

That was interesting, so I started play with choices and see their impact. ...

More research on choosing dev stack for game dev

Last week, I had decided to use Swift/Apple’s ecosystem for initial gamedev. But I wasn’t feeling 100% okay with getting locked into Apple’s ecosystem. So I spent last week doing more research on developing simple apps using Swift, Xamarin, Flutter, and React Native. Since I use JavaScript at work, React Native would be the easiest way for me to get started but it feels too much like work and I am kind of tired of js/npm dependencies and build tools. One nice thing about staying in Apple’s ecosystem is that everything has really good documentation and feels more polished. ...
