just warning you guys not to make a Roblox game. there's a Roblox mafia that owns 95% of successful games and has paid Roblox Employees in their pocket that will ban your game for no reason if it gets successful. here's how it works... if you make a successful game like i did (5000 players) a member of this mafia will approach you trying to buy your game for like $100,000 real money. if you accept, they'll give you like 10% of your game's profit going forward (supposedly) but they will be the new dev team and you will go away. if you deny this offer, your game will be banned by Roblox. when Roblox deleted my game literally 1 day after the mafia offered me $100k and i denied it (because i was already on track to making $20K per month so i'd have that amount in like 5 months anyway if not more) not only did they ban me game they seized all my robux so I literally made nothing.

lmao that's amazing. Considering they otherwise wouldn't know how to make anything applicable to a project because you have to know the basics at the least, but AI got them over that hurdle just enough to make a mess. Sounds about right.

He's ruining his game with AI as we speak. This means he will need to disclose AI on his steam page and steam demo. I think it's safe to say he has failed.
>>
I wish... that I could turn back time
>>
>>554239523
The issue is mainly flooding maintainers time and having to read large diffs taking a cognitive toll which may end up being worthless. There may be nuggets of gold in submitted AI pull requests but digging through piles of shit just makes it not worth it. Some people even suggested making people pay to have to submit a PR. It's the same issue when you give away free things basically, if you charge a small fee a lot of freeloaders will just not bother.

Added "look at" functionality. Now you can look at other entities in the same room.

Parser is decently smart.

>>554238943
When you signed up for Roblox, you agreed to the Terms of Use. Buried in those terms is a Mandatory Arbitration Clause. No hope.
>>
>>554238943
>>554242580
So by "mafia" anon actually means the literal owners of the game who probably tell you upfront that you're making your game inside of their game and they have the rights to it.

Crazy how many people jump into gamedev and even are successful at something without paying attention to these kind of things.

Does anyone know if there's any way to make Aseprite stop fucking assuming ID-0 is transparency? The palette I'm working in uses ID-255 as the transparent color but if you change the transparent color Aseprite shits itself and keeps trying to use ID-0 for the Text tool, Outline FX, and basically fucking everything else.

There's two sides to every story but there are a lot of gamedev schizos out there and corporations are greedy so who knows.

I realized why I hate twitter. Marketing has become the norm, saturation point is reached. Everyone is trying to grift you there because they get paid for it with their blue checkmark. It's like LinkedIn for entrepreneurs.
>>
>>554243751
yep
and you have these account that just go with "show me your indie game!" just to get indies post their trailers on the timeline and that way the account gets visibility. Are they doing anything with it? Nope, they don't even like your trailers, they just gather bunch of dumbasses around to inlate their visibility to the algorithm.

You're talking to autists who have never socialized IRL before.

It really is miserable. I still need to get back on that horse and try but I don't know. Reddit is statistically proven to be the best place to market right now. Don't go there though. You don't have my permission.
>>
>>554244230
you can socialize without forced positivity or grifting. marketing on twitter is a fool's errand if you don't have a blue checkmark and a lot of visibility from acting like an idiot

are we talking about genuine posts and interaction with community or paid ads?

The checkmark does nothing lol it just slightly lessens the amount you are shadowbanned while shilling.

And if you cancel your subscription enjoy having it recharged a million times until you have to call your bank to block them. It's unbelievable.

that's why I ignore blue checkmarks entirely
their opinion don't matter
their sole purpose is to bait you into engagement
anything they say is calculated to get the biggest response, so they spew bullshit and wait or people to correct them or debate them, just so they have higher visibility and algorithm ticks
when I see a blue checkmark on my timeline I ignore it, they want to waste my time and to boost their reach
Only people without checkmarks are worth talking to and debating as their opinions are their own and aren't doing it for the sole purpose of gaining money
basically Twitter is like 4chan to the power of two, but instead of (you)s you gain money with your visibility. Isn't that something,

Reddit is the best for gamedevs because reddit is actually a pure meritocracy. Other social media platforms are not meritocracies. 4chan is one too but its filled with poor thirdies so its not worth advertising here.

couple posts above we had a guy arguing the best results in advertising come from reddit, a left-leaning site. I'm afraid that between right and left side, it's the left who buys new games and right is playing old games

yes, that's why Guns nad Nuns is getting hundreds likes now and any 10 sec animation of a new enemy from Wasteland Bites is getting thousand likes

You're making neither of those. If you actually made a video game, it'd look like Kalina 3: King of Fighters edition, lil nodev.
