What difficulties did you have? How did you solve them?

 In Part B, I had some difficulties getting my game to work. I would run the game and find it riddled with some annoying error. To solve this I ran the game in debug mode so I can precisely see where the error is in my lines of code and fix it. It was often some stupid typo like I would write ramdom instead of random.

These changes create a more challenging and polished game.

Triple A or big game developers make games to make to money, while indie developers make games to express themselves and out of passion. Triple A developers tend to go for a ultra high definition and realistic styles, while indie developers tend to try a more stylised or abstract style. (eg: pixel art) While Triple A studios almost always tries to go for mass market appeal, which usually means uninspired game concepts and ideas. Indie studios tend to go for more niche audiences, which can lead to innovative and creative ideas that bring something new to the market. 2. What are some of the difficulties the developers in the film had to overcome? Since indie developers receive little to no funding especially when they aren't "discovered", they have to work long stressful hours with little time to spend with friends and f...
