Here we go, another indie game dev story haha.

I've been a gamer for as long as I can remember, always dreaming of making my own games one day. Life got in the way for a long time, but now I've finally had the chance to create Galactic Admirals (https://www.galacticadmirals.com), my love letter to the RTS genre, the promise of mobile gaming with a retro minimalist touch. I goal is to put 10,000 playable ships on the screen.

Inspired by my love of games, movies, anime, and novels about naval warfare, space, and strategy, this game is something I've dreamt about for a long time. The current version of the game available is just the first step. Rather than building something massive, complicated, and something no one wants to play, I am focused on building in steps.

Focus for now is getting the core gameplay right; so I am building fast and slowly lol, keeping it small on purpose, shipping it quickly so I can expand it piece by piece, learning and improving along the way. With each update, I aim to refine and expand the game, learning from your feedback every step of the way.

I hope you'll give Galactic Admirals a try and share your honest feedback.

P.S. I am going to blog along the way. I think the cool kids call it buildingitinpublic =). https://galacticadmirals.com/#developer-blog
