Hi! I’m Joshua (my internet alias is Joshington), I live in Georgia in the United States, and I’m a 15-year-old solo indie game dev. I run a game development studio by myself called “SproutKid”. (The name derives from me growing as a game dev like a little sprout, hence the name Sprout and Kid.) Back in 2024, ever since I got a 8 GB Windows 11 laptop for my 14th birthday, I started using various different game engines that were considered very easy to learn and utilize, such as Twine, GB Studio, Buildbox, and ended up using GDevelop. Eventually, about over a year of using GDevelop, I ended up self-teaching myself and using Godot 4.4 to make my games.
I’m literally obsessed with platformers of any kind, which is why 2D platformers are the only thing I know how to make in Godot 4.4. Whenever I’m making a 2D platformer in Godot 4.4, I usually reuse numerous scripts and scenes to speed up development. Right now, I’m actively developing a 2D platformer in Godot 4.4, Platform Kid. Here’s the link to the game if y’all want to check it out: https://sproutkid.itch.io/platform-kid. Happy New Year!
