How GitHub Makes Game Making Easier for Non-Coders
In this video, DW goes through five things he's been using in GitHub while designing his latest prototype that require zero coding skills.
GitHub is a social development platform that will make your game development journey easier even if you're not a coder! We'll cover how GitHub can help keep your file history, through to how it can help organize your work, and even where to find cool projects to learn (and possibly contribute to).
DW takes his own advice and shares the outcome of going through the gamejam prep steps from the previous video. After a recap of his body of work since 2018 and reflect on his games and the player feedback, DW comes up with a pretty straight-forward set of learning objectives and goals for Ludum Dare 47.

After banging my head against the keyboard last night and tonight, I finally realized that the problem was that I was looking too deep for the answer to my dialogue box display issues. Although this be frustrating now, at the end of the day this allowed me to learn more about the Godot engine that I decided to use for this project. Being an old software developer, I know that this exploration is necessary-- even if it's untimely.

My effort continues on Out the Door with some new artwork, a rewrite (of sorts) to fix the build process, which has led to something of a self-driven code review.

In this episode of WTF, David talks Stardew Valley and how it's pretty much the perfect version of Harvest Moon. Yup.

No coding yet-- but I build a narrative scoring system with some maths!
In this gamedev devlog, DW recaps his effort on the new prototype currently called "Handshake". Although the game isn't playable, the scope seems much clearer now making March look like the time for a new game prototype release.

ZOMG! Sprint 2 is already a week and what does DW have to show for it? Not much-- but this is where Discord becomes a part of the near future and possibly the one and only way to participate in the #VagabondGame beta. :D
