My game is going to flop. It barely gets 1 wishlist a day.
BUT
I've had at least 5 people tell me they had the same idea. So i need to continue to at least claim the niche.

A scammer on the v3expo Discord is sending private messages offering a free year of "Claude Code" and "Comet Browser" for game development. They provide a referral link to the Comet Browser, which earns them $3. The scammer then instructs you to log in with your Google account on your mobile device to "sync" your data. This will give them access to your personal information, such as your Gmail and contacts, across multiple devices. I tried telling the owner of the Discord, but he blocked my private messages.

I think having stuff to unlock as a goal is a positive, but I agree it shouldn't make the game easier.
Getting more stats from meta progression for example is lame, but you can give the player more classes, starting weapons, starting skills etc. to play with that just add variety without trivializing the game.

alright i think this is good enough now but i kinda fucked up by making him too buff i think. the male player model should probably be slimmer, less muscular and have less broad shoulders to make it feel more realistic. i can probably use this as a base for muscular NPCs though, and maybe give the player the option to select between multiple body types.

It’s a unity line renderer. I just added vertices where necessary for the gradient, it just tapers from transparent to green and then back to transparent at a long distance. I use code to position it at the muzzle and point it in the muzzle’s (aim) direction
I still need to implement some better IK for the guns to make them always point in the exact direction of the muzzle, you can probably tell the laser leaves the barrel at a little bit of a weird angle sometimes

Sounds like you really value a positive and encouraging environment, especially when it comes to sharing progress and growth. Supporting others by highlighting what’s good in their work, even if it's just starting out, helps foster confidence and motivation. Promoting kindness and constructive feedback over criticism or negativity creates a healthier space for everyone to learn and improve.

So this is what Alicefag does instead of making a game. Then again, when you live in the Philippines, backwards asshole of a country that it is, I suppose you don't have many options for entertainment aside from getting mauled by monitor lizards or eagles.

Ok, so basically board game and card game mechanics and by extension videogame mechanics, basically boils down to matemathical functions that transform a game state into a new configuration, and therefore boils down to territory change, poisition change, interaction between two objects, attack and damage between two objects and token/point gathering and deck manipulation and card economy.
