I have a lot of ideas when it comes to worldbuilding. I have always been a fan of science fantasy (combining both tropes from sci-fi and fantasy), but I feel like most works haven't embraced both genres to their fullest potential. The original Phantasy Star series is probably the closest because they weren't afraid to actually call magic "magic" instead of "the force" like in Star Wars.
I plan on using these ideas for my dream game (or series), but I'm posting these worldbuilding concepts anyway just in case I never get to creating the game, and I just don't care if other people use these ideas. They most likely have already been done before (in fact I know some of these ideas have been done before). I'm using AI to generate these concepts because I suck at drawing.
Anyway let's begin. First off, I think alien worlds should combine both ancient technology, futuristic technology, and everything in between. Technological progress isn't a linear path, so you shouldn't assume that aliens go through the same technological progression as we do. They might be flying interstellar ships, but they might also still be wielding swords and bows. So you can have spaceships flying over medieval style villages or even mudhuts. Star Wars has basically already popularized this, so this should be a no-brainer, but you can always take it a step further. For example, replace lightsabers with steel swords while still having space travel.
This goes with what I said earlier, every gamedev community (outside of /agdg/ threads) is pozzed. You will be ostracized unless you fully subscribe to SJW ideology. It's why even in the indie scene, it's hard to find non-pozzed game developers. You even have to request an account (while providing links to other sites and profiles for manual approval) just to be on this instance.

You are a fucking disgrace! This is just flat out proof that many of you guys are no more libertarian than the Gary Johnson types who want to force vaccines into children and bakeries to bake gay cakes. You are willing to suck deep state cock if the agent in question LARPs as a libertarian.
When even the most ardent Jones fan has to admit it's not incompetence but malice.

I have the HUD display the current level like how it is displayed in Super Mario Bros as it does a better job explaining which environment you are in and how far are you from the next boss.
I've also decreased the intervals for when bombs explode. I did a full playthrough of the game and I realized that the later enemies that are only killed by bombs are extremely hard to kill due to the long interval, so I cut the interval by half.

I've bit crushed the death whirl sound effect, but I can't make it sound like an SNES sound effect. It honestly sounds more like the compressed voice sound effects you would hear in 80s arcade games.

Oh yes... Use the magic term to make sure noone knows if you're talking about free trade, banks, stock market or literally any other from +200 definitions of that term.
