Well hello there. Welcome to the very beginning of my game development journey. By following this series of videos you'll be able to see me develop my first ever game. I have decided that I am going to make a PS1-style retro horror game and in this first devlog, I share how I have gone about recreating the classic look of a PlayStation 1 game.
