I’m Danny Hawk and this is my diary for my forthcoming game Car Guy. I’ve generally been poor at documenting my process so this is me embarking to change that.
I want it to not just be a tidy devlog with neatly crafted design processes and solved solutions, but also a place for my ongoing ideas and things not coming together.
I’m starting this on March 4th 2024, so all posts before that date were backfilled by me from various places I’ve been posting and saving things.
Also, sometimes I stream Car Guy’s development on twitch.
Please use notion’s comments freely! I would be happy to read your reactions and thoughts and discuss all of this while I’m working on it (log in on the top right to comment).

$\color{White}\colorbox{MediumSeaGreen}{Devlogs}$
Written after the completion of something major or fundamental to the game, devlogs are essays documenting the process it took to solve some important piece of Car Guy.
$\colorbox{ffce45}{Blogs}$
Written in parallel to my work on something for car guy. They’re documentations of my process as its happening when creating a new feature, deciding on a design direction, art directing, etc.
$\color{White}\colorbox{mediumpurple}{Journals}$
Explicitly meant for my reflections and thoughts on the process so far.
$\color{white}\colorbox{Coral}{Living Docs}$
A page that I will continue to update throughout development as a chronicle of some long changing aspect of the game.

This blog started by when I snap a quick pic of something funny or interesting.
