I still have a few games to make and release. Besides, this work brings me immense joy. Writing also makes me happy, and until now, I’ve been practicing it on my blog about capoeira. However, I feel like I’ve exhausted most of the topics I currently have something to say about there. And yet, I still feel the urge to write./p> p>I wrote a test assignment, which was an essay on the topic, “Can a game be good without gameplay?” 4,000 characters. I quickly wrote something that I thought was decent and asked my friend, columnist Mateusz Witczak, for feedback./p> p>As you might guess, the feedback was VERY constructive. Mateusz made me realize that I still have a lot to learn. Let me quote his summary:/p> p>“The text is okay, though it would benefit from taking a deep breath, organizing it a bit, and cutting out a few show‐off moments. However, its biggest problem is something else. You’re not leveraging your biggest advantage over the audience: the substantive knowledge you’ve gained from working in gamedev. I’d love to learn from such a text what gameplay is, what systems and mechanics are (since readers don’t like definitions, we’d have to explain these concepts through examples). Additionally, I’d like to see references to your personal experiences—both as a player and a game developer. What’s the USP of this piece? It’s a trap topic that has been written about many times before, and aspiring authors who choose it will likely repeat the same diagnoses. In my opinion, you should use this opportunity to emphasize your perspective and strengths as much as possible.”/p> p>And he’s right. I won’t publish my draft from the assignment here, but when I read it now, the text feels very generic. I’ve seen something like it many times before. Of course, em>CD Action/em> simply ignored me, but the need to write remains. And this blog is here to fulfill that need./p> p>img styledisplay: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; src/user/pages/01.home/me.jpg alt width503 height503 sizes100vw />/p> p>Because… damn it… who’s going to stop me? And maybe, just maybe, someone will learn something along the way? Maybe that someone will only be me.

I still have a few games to make and release. Besides, this work brings me immense joy. Writing also makes me happy, and until now, I’ve been practicing it on my blog about capoeira. However, I feel like I’ve exhausted most of the topics I currently have something to say about there. And yet, I still feel the urge to write./p> p>I wrote a test assignment, which was an essay on the topic, “Can a game be good without gameplay?” 4,000 characters. I quickly wrote something that I thought was decent and asked my friend, columnist Mateusz Witczak, for feedback./p> p>As you might guess, the feedback was VERY constructive. Mateusz made me realize that I still have a lot to learn. Let me quote his summary:/p> p>“The text is okay, though it would benefit from taking a deep breath, organizing it a bit, and cutting out a few show‐off moments. However, its biggest problem is something else. You’re not leveraging your biggest advantage over the audience: the substantive knowledge you’ve gained from working in gamedev. I’d love to learn from such a text what gameplay is, what systems and mechanics are (since readers don’t like definitions, we’d have to explain these concepts through examples). Additionally, I’d like to see references to your personal experiences—both as a player and a game developer. What’s the USP of this piece? It’s a trap topic that has been written about many times before, and aspiring authors who choose it will likely repeat the same diagnoses. In my opinion, you should use this opportunity to emphasize your perspective and strengths as much as possible.”/p> p>And he’s right. I won’t publish my draft from the assignment here, but when I read it now, the text feels very generic. I’ve seen something like it many times before. Of course, em>CD Action/em> simply ignored me, but the need to write remains. And this blog is here to fulfill that need./p> p>img styledisplay: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; src/user/pages/01.home/me.jpg alt width503 height503 sizes100vw />/p> p>Because… damn it… who’s going to stop me? And maybe, just maybe, someone will learn something along the way? Maybe that someone will only be me. And that’s perfectly fine./p> p> /p> /section> /section> /section> /div> section idfooter classsection bg-gray> section classcontainer grid-lg> p>a hrefhttps://getgrav.org>Grav/a> was i classfa fa-code>/i> with i classfa fa-heart-o pulse >/i> by a hrefhttps://trilby.media>Trilby Media/a>./p> /section> /section> div classmobile-container> div classoverlay idoverlay> div classmobile-logo> a href/ classnavbar-brand mr-10> img src altFid Gra sizes100vw /> /a> /div> nav classoverlay-menu> ul classtree> li> a href/ classactive> Home /a> /li> li> a href/blog class> Postmortem /a> ul> li> a href/blog/chains-of-fury-postmortem class> Chains of Fury Postmortem /a> ul> li> a href/blog/chains-of-fury-postmortem/how-did-game-design-evolve-in-chains-of-fury class> How Did Game Design Evolve in Chains of Fury? /a> /li> li> a href/blog/chains-of-fury-postmortem/graphics-of-chains-of-fury class> Graphics of Chains of Fury /a> /li> li> a href/blog/chains-of-fury-postmortem/encounters-and-ai class> Encounters and AI /a> /li> /ul> /li> li> a href/blog/cobble-games-postmortem class> Cobble Games Postmortem /a> /li> /ul> /li> li> a href/mysli-rozne class> Random Thoughts /a> ul> li> a href/mysli-rozne/chasing-dreams class> The Cost of Chasing Dreams /a> /li> li> a href/mysli-rozne/dobra-mina-do-zlej-gry class> Keeping a stiff upper lip. /a> /li> li> a href/mysli-rozne/game-jam-is-not-game-dev class> Game Jams Are Not "Game Dev in a Nutshell" /a> /li> li> a href/mysli-rozne/game-industry-conference-2025-memory-dump class> Game Industry Conference 2025 - Personal Recap /a> /li> li> a href/mysli-rozne/the-other-side-of-entrepreneurship-paying-off-the-debt-no-one-sees class> The Other Side of Entrepreneurship: Paying Off the Debt No One Sees /a> /li> /ul> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart class> Wise Inspiring Smart /a> ul> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/game-design class> Game Design /a> ul> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/game-design/juice-it-or-lose-it class> Juice it or Lose it /a> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/game-design/balancing-repetition-and-variation-in-game-design class> Balancing Repetition and Variation in Game Design /a> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/game-design/what-is-fun class> What is Fun? /a> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/game-design/embracing-constraints-the-art-of-focused-indie-game-development class> Embracing Constraints: The Art of Focused Indie Game Development /a> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/game-design/links class> Links /a> ul> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/game-design/links/three-hundred-mechanics class> Three Hundred Mechanics /a> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/game-design/links/game-studies-buddies-podcast class> Game Studies Buddies Podcast /a> /li> /ul> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/game-design/beyond-aesthetics-how-visual-communication-makes-or-breaks-your-game class> Beyond Aesthetics: How Visual Communication Makes or Breaks Your Game /a> /li> /ul> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/code class> Code /a> ul> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/code/coding-tutorials class> Coding Tutorials /a> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/code/library-of-helpful-unity-scripts class> Library of Helpful Unity Scripts and plugins /a> /li> /ul> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/youtube-channels-worthy-of-following class> Youtube Channels /a> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/useful-software class> Useful Software /a> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/art-resources class> Art Resources /a> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/production class> Production /a> ul> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/production/game-production-process-and-common-pitfalls class> Game Production Process and Common Pitfalls /a> /li> /ul> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/unsorted class> Unsorted /a> ul> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/unsorted/the-long-game-jake-burketts-blueprint-for-over-11-year-indie-career class> The Long Game: Jake Burkett’s Blueprint for over 11-Year Indie Career /a> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/unsorted/stop-chasing-trends-the-viral-hit-trap-that-kills-game-devs class> Stop Chasing Trends: The Viral Hit Trap That Kills Game Devs /a> /li> li> a href/wise-inspiring-smart/unsorted/the-30-year-indie-game-jeff-vogels-timeless-blueprint-for-sustainable-creativity class> The 30-Year Indie Game: Jeff Vogel’s Timeless Blueprint for Sustainable Creativity /a> /li> /ul> /li> /ul> /li> /ul> /nav> /div> /div> script src/user/themes/quark/js/jquery.treemenu.js>/script> script src/user/themes/quark/js/site.js>/script> /body> /html> /!doctype>
