Part 2 of 11
Who does what: Mikolaj directs, Dad builds
How do a dad and his son make a video game? We split the jobs.
Mikolaj is the director. He has the ideas, decides what's funny (and what's too hard), and tests everything until it breaks.
I'm the builder. I turn his ideas into a real game with the Godot engine, with help from AI tools for the code and the art.
Then we argue about how big the kettle should be. Every time.
What's on screen
The video has music but no talking. These are its words, in order.
- Mikolaj is the director. He has the ideas…
- …decides what's funny (and what's too hard)…
- Dad is the builder. He turns the ideas into a real game.
- Then we argue about how big the kettle should be. Every time.
- Mikolaj Studios. A father and son making games together.
