Flying solo? No problem. Today’s tools are more accessible and powerful than ever.
Here’s a recommended software stack for solo devs:
- Engine: Unity or Godot – versatile and lightweight.
- Art: Krita (2D), Blender (3D) – both free and open-source.
- Sound: Audacity for editing, freesound.org for effects.
- Coding: Visual Studio Code – fast, smart, customizable.
- Organization: Notion or Trello for keeping tasks and notes in order.
Solo devs wear many hats. With the right tools, you can handle design, coding, art, and publishing without a team.
