I would like to get your feedbacks. How does it look? Add it to your wishlist to support me on this journey. Here is the steam link: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3896300/Toll_Booth_Simulator_Schedule_of_Chaos/
Don’t make it Windows-only, it’s annoying.
Idk, if it works well enough with Proton, it’s probably fine targeting Windows. I’ve heard it said, “Windows is Linux’s best gaming API”
If it is made in godot or unity (unsure about unreal an others), it would be quite impressive to make it unable to compile on linux. It should be as easy as just chosing another release target.
I will do linux
Based
Take this as a commitment, I will buy it.
Is it a problem anymore with proton?
Or rather – is testing the game on Linux via proton sufficient, or do you actually look for native Linux builds?
I’m honestly interested as a dev who recently released my game I worked on free time, and I decide to go the route of single Windows build + proton, since it makes the build and release process a little bit easier, since I have a custom CI/CD pipeline and adding a Linux support into it would take some time.
And as someone who has a Linux as a daily driver and game only on Linux, having the game run on it was important to me, but I honestly didn’t see a reason why go with a native build and the additional trouble it would cause with testing - because now I can just test one windows build on my Linux desktop through proton, and be fairly sure that it runs OK on both.
What do yo use?
All is fine for linux users if you don’t break proton, which is rare. Unless you’re doing something like kernel-level AC, windows-only APIs, etc. which you (very likely) won’t do.
Linux support added to steam.
Goated dev
Yep. I won’t be playing because of this.
Will do for linux Thanks! Please wishlist it to support me. https://store.steampowered.com/app/3896300/Toll_Booth_Simulator_Schedule_of_Chaos/
the plot seems so random that it probably fucks. In a good way
while I had my doubts when seeing the thumbnail, i think this has potential to be quite fun.
the textures look kind if poor, but I guess that rolls with the concept of the game.
the dessert looks like straight from breaking bad, so I guess you can fetch some storyline quirks from there.
but really. put some work into the cover image. based from the image I thought this would be another generic low effort mobile game ad.
I’ll give it a try. I gotta say tho, the mechanics in this game are all over the place. You should pick a few and really polish them. It says its a toll booth simulation game, but you can farm, and fight people, drive cars, etc. Its like GTA, with lower poly graphics. I honestly dont know what to think about it.
Would love to quit my job to make games. Curious about your journey. Regrets? Are you feeling it will be sustainable?
“Quitting your job to make games” is just like quitting your job to write your novel, or quitting your job to produce your electronic music, or quitting your job to sell crocheted goods for Etsy.
Either you’re living at home with your parents not paying rent, you’re financially dependent on a spouse who has a very highly paid real job, or just in good health with no kids and enough wealth (probably from inheritance or landlording) invested that you can live comfortably off just the interest. It’s saying, “I can choose to retire right now and focus on my hobbies.” Is this the situation you find yourself in? Because I’m certain it is for the OP.
Must be nice…
You’re leaving out plenty of other possibilities including simply having enough saved to be able to go without a regular job for a while in pursuit of other goals. I’ve worked with and know several people who will cycle in and out of work to pursue other things in life. Not all lifestyles require constant employment.

I think it’s actually worse since you can’t directly make money from the game while making it. You can stream for example, but it requires a completely different skillset.
Compare that to, for example, writers releasing chapters on royal road, getting some funding through patreon while writing (in return for advanced chapters), and quitting their jobs when the book sales pick up. Like yeah it’s still really hard to make good money, but the possibility of slowly progressing into full time writing is why people can try to do it.
Why is it called toll booth simulator (primary title) when most of it is not toll booth handling/gameplay?
Why is this looks like schedule 1?
Like… Very similar
