Hi everyone my names Paul aka Lunadome. I'm a postman by day and an enthusiastic beginner designer/developer by night (Once my 3 year old goes to bed that is).

I've been studying Gamesalad for about a month now watching hours of tutorials and practicing ideas within my free trial. Once that ran out I focused primarily on character design ideas and working on artwork until I had something I wanted to use.

As of today I'm subscribing to Gamesalad to start working on any idea that pops into me head. I've seen a variety of games that others have posted on here and it excites me to work on one of my own.

I started in college doing a degree with interactive multimedia focusing on 3d animation however as some of you may know once you start having a family it kind of goes out the window and I just got a normal job to provide for them. As she's getting older and starting school I'm trying to rekindle my love for design and this program looks like a fun opportunity for that.

I look forward to showing off some work and playing your guys creations too and being part of this forum community of Gamesalad.

    Welcome. What kind of games are you into fella?

  • LunadomeLunadome Member, BASIC Posts: 12

    @smurfted Heyo, Personally I either play survival/craft type games with the Mrs or local party games like overcooked, speedrunners, rocket league etc.

    With me daughter learning how to use the tablet more each day I'd love to make something even she can play with.

    Currently working on a click an actor and watch them fall type game. Just figuring it all out as I go along with the help of a variety of videos and using the search bar on this forum.
