I built this alone in about 4 weeks using Godot, then kept iterating post-launch. It's a cozy-but-brutal survival game where taming and raising a dog (modeled after my own dog) is the actual core mechanic, not a cosmetic pet system.Technical bits that might interest this crowd: used an AI coding agent as a pair-programmer throughout development, Tripo3D/Meshy for base 3D assets (then hand-rigged/animated), ElevenLabs for voice lines. Solo dev, no publisher, no team — launched Early Access on Steam on July 6th.
Happy to talk about the AI-assisted solo dev workflow, what worked and what didn't, or just take feedback on the game itself.
