Hello and welcome to Learnindie’s first blog post!

We are here to share an early look into the site’s first tutorial topic, Clouds. Each topic will have an accompanying Youtube series, Asset pack template, GIF Tutorial, and Wiki page.

The Plan

I (jasontomlee) will be doing all the tutorials, assets, and content. Although this may take quite a lot of time, I need to test the waters and see what does & doesn’t work. Once this series is complete, I can get assistance from experts to help build out the knowledgebase quicker & better.

Instead of doing what every game-dev does and do webcam dev-logs, I’ll be taking a different approach to teaching.

Just like how a movie has multiple mini-plots going on at the same time, our Youtube Series will incorporate exciting storytelling elements. I believe this is the ONLY way LearnIndie can really stand out and position itself as the ‘Visual Encyclopedia for GameDevs’. The visuals will mash 2D, 3D, and Pixel-Art together to create a unique viewing experience. (Smiling friends is a great example of this style).

There is an artist (YoHokki), musician (MaximusCXI), and a few collaborators helping out on this video series. We hope you are as excited as us to share the progress in the upcoming month.
