Early HoboGameDev games

Small games. First experiments. Learning by making.

Inside the project

What it is.

I’ve kept these early projects together: a platform adventure, a space shooter and a little planetary scene. They are smaller experiments from learning to make games, with their original pages still on itch.io.

Watch Out! was a Coursera assignment, and Solar System is described as a beginner project. This is an archive of that learning work; the original pages keep the project descriptions and credits in their own context.

My part
