Is a 4 niggas in a row game still viable in 2026? I want to make something inspired by old school Dragon Quest.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

>>557165532what if his isn't porn?
>>557163751For the sake of my question, it's 3D.>>557163898>for their hearts There's a reason the saying "sex sells" exists. Nice guys finish last.

>>557165692you can tack the porn on, it doesn't need to be well integrated or anything
>>557165789I don't like the idea of my game making mens dicks hard
>>557165760i'm waiting for gemini 3.1 to drop, supposed to be today, although i don't use it for development i use it for storytelling / fiction writing, i had the chance to get an A/B test like a week ago and it blew my fucking mind not going to tell a lie, it put together details that no other model has and also more closely followed my very detailed instructions AI chads gonna be FEASTING when that drops
>>557165760And here I am, stuck on glm 1.0.3
I think I am gonna use some of this gif ideas with my 3D interracial maid demo I was making.
>>557165951>I don't like the idea of my game making mens dicks hardthis is you when the parasite gender gets BTFO by sexbots, get used to eating poverty food now so it's not such a shock
I'm trying to come up with enemy designs. For those who have played 2D games from the 4th and 5th gen, what are some games from this era with memorable enemy designs that would fit my game in your opinion? I'm going to start off by adapting some Dungeons and Dragons enemies for the first levels, because I think that's what most players (like me) would find interesting to see in this style.
Proggie
>>557165719>There's a reason the saying "sex sells" exists. Nice guys finish lastTry playing a VN some time, you'll understand what I mean
>>557166828POV you suck cock and have AIDS and a prolapsed rectum
>>557166352go straight to the source, which is mythology and biology and demonology instead of copy pasting some design that is copyrighted.
>>557166871Don't come back crying when 90% of your playerbase pirated your game because they were after a 20min release and weren't willing to pay for it
>>557167034google "porn" and thank me later

I have the skills to make a masterpiece but I am so burned out and depressed I wanna quit gamedev instead.It's really hard to spend so much effort and have no feedback.Like why even bother if nobody cares.
>>557168590ngmi
Lineart done
>>557168739faggot
>>557165968I think they've been soft releasing it, because my gemini has been outperforming chatgpt lately.But not like it matters, they will just lobotomize gemini again.But yeah like in comparison chatgpt is straight up fucking dogshit, I might even need to reset my chats, memories, and settings.It feels bad like I'm putting down a retarded animal, but I need my work horse to fucking works.
where are the bocchidevs?
>>557168739Nice. Though I think the eyes should be more like the small colored picture's.
>>557166352Hey Eldon Betz, hows it going
>>557168972>I think they've been soft releasing it, because my gemini has been outperforming chatgpt lately.No, i use pro daily and it has not changed, what has changed is the free version thinking tokens are gimped, if you pay and input your API you get to turn up the thinkingstill waiting for 3.1
>>557169009>where are the bocchidevs?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJ5sgKiZDYIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mL24xiL-bRIgiven up shouldn't be me.For as the depths of eternal glory lies beyond the mere npc need of internet points, my dearestestest chuds.Motivation to best become, that's it. What really matters.Not steam vague points or e-penis shit.I need to grind more, so I can dev more, for I can reach more, until I am 50 times stronger than now.SOTN and FFVI wont be reached by crying is too hard.but SOTN and FFVI aren't related to internet e-male vagene glory, like how most of agdg chases the shadows of glory and fame of the malduk realm controled by the sodomite race of servants of moloch and baal.We trully bainwashed all be we all are.Tiredsome that is, but that must be what it is.
This you azurtroon?
>>557169694didn't read

>>557169009Busy g... I mean devving
>>557169694i played a few castlevania games and they sucked, except for castlevania 64, i haven't even bothered to try sotn
>>557170454>sotnIt's very easy and doesn't hold up but it's got great art assets and especially animations
>>557169694can't wait for the AI rendition of this one
>>557169009I almost bought that guitar but I thought the string tension felt a little off and the body was too thin. Is Bocchi a good show?
>>557164101added headless mode to my autoplaying emoji game, meaning i can run the game without graphics and as fast as possible, so i can run a battle simulation in 1-2 seconds. this allows me to run thousands of battles for balance purposes. so i ran 100 battles for each matchup for existing 4 weapons (gun, sword, bow, dagger) and picture are the results. it took 50 minutes total so i need to improve performance, since in the future ill want to also test different builds as i add items and ill probably end up running over 100k battles per balance report. but for now its good enough
>>557170437stop looking at cp, tranny freak
And done.

>>557164924Cris' Room?
>>557171491Cute boy
>>557172193I was speaking from experience, it is an easy game in the genre
>>557172193I'll have you know I've played a couple of Marios
>>557166352your art style is so damn good. nice work.
Alright aggydggy. Hole digging games are still blowing up. What's a good twist on the genre that we could do for a quick sloppy hit? Digging *upwards*? Mix it with a rage climbing game. Or it's a minefield and it's like a 3D Minesweeper. Some sort of systematics for detecting and avoiding the bombs as you dig.
>>557173027what the fuck richard?
>>557171972oh he didn't need to post his game? it's interesting how that works haha
>>557173027too complex. you need to think more primal. dog digging friendslop. you are a dog. your friends are dogs. you dig together with shitty physics.
>>557164924Joe Wintergreen would not like the fact that you post on 4chan.
>>557173027Make the environments big and cool. get like 3 biomes, each with it's own big monster roaming around, and like 2-3 smaller monsters to spice things up.
>>557173027Instead of the player doing the boring part you should automate the digging process through NPCs. Then you just increase their numbers and get upgrades for them, idel/clicker game style. Digging without a reason is kinda lame, so just add building mechanics, you can even combine upgrades with buildings, make living quarters, taverns, etc
>>557173509That might have some legs. Your owners left you out in the yard and now you want to escape. You and up to 3 of your dog friends have to tunnel underneath the house and fence defenses. Who Let the Dogs Out? COMING SOON

>>557174605i'm adding some basic escape room sections to current project, along with making the backend framework for it so i can reuse/expand it in the future if i want to.
>>557174471why do tranny child molesters love this anime so much, the only good anime are psycho pass season 1, death note, samurai champloo, a couple others but most anime is fucking TRASH
escape rooms hit too close to home. I'm never getting out of this place...

hi. is godot viable as a 3D engine now or is that still just twitter faggot marketslop speak?
>here's your new unity CEO bro
>>557175780unity dating app. I can find a gamedev gf
>>557175661yes it is, but it's tedious compared to say unity, it's also very unsecure and your game will be decompiled in minutes by any amateur unless you personally encrypt the distributed file.
I'm gonna make a Deus Ex-like
>>557176335see you in 4 years
>>557176497That's optimistic.
>>557176335see you in 12 years
>>557175661in 2026 if you cannot use timmy's engine do not bother making a 3d game, people wont look at it if you're a solodev and you will be stuck in devhell because poonity and godont are dogshit, UE or 2d
my gamedev bf doesn't know that he's my gamedev bf
>>557176808That's pessimistic.
>>557176335see you in hell
>>557176998big if true
>>557176335>I'm gonna makeYou won't do shit, faggot.
>>557176998That's idealistic.

i've always hated RNG in video gamesit makes me feel like a strange individual to see the success of RNG systemsgambling is dogshit
>>557178058what games do you like? bet they have rng in them
And done, Ceo redo is here.
>>557175429This picture makes me nostalgic for a time I never lived
>>557177357I think those PSX style assets tend to sell pretty decently.Hell at $10 I'm tempted to buy them myself.

asked ai to make me a full fledged 2d space shooter that i can ship to steam today and it spit out this.. how cooked are we aggy daggy?
>>557178804all trannies do>>557178301>>557178819bro just posting his fetish shit like it's gamedev related
>>557178928>oh no steam will be filled with even more low effort dogshitwho cares
>>557178928you ever played starsector?
>>557178928we're far past cooked, we're burnt to a crisp.>>557179103>nubby's number factory is a figment of your imagination
>>557164101Lookin' back over my years, I guess I've shedded some tearsI told myself time and time again, "This time I'm gonna gmi"But another build, things ain't right, I'm losin' againTakes a fool to lose twice and start all over againThink I'd better let it goLooks like another dev T.K.O.
>>557179661>nubby's number factoryi imagine a schizo in a room drawing numbers on the walls and swapping them around nonstop
>>557179661Steam is already filled with total garbage. AI isn't going to change that.If you make a good game it'll float to the top. AI or not.
>>557178301Feedback:You are not improving at all, you're not good at art and you just keep redrawing the same gay shit over and over.Focus on gameplay and hire an artist with skill/practice/talent who has actually improved over the years and your game might sell this time.
>>557179809AI will let good games be made more quickly.also, why do you believe AI isn't better than you at making a game? or at game ideas? it's already better than you at art, writing and coding. it won't conveniently stop where your skills start.
>>557180002he just need to grind his fundies
>>557179741fuck off retarded tranny tripfag, next nerp or rotate will start posting about how they got raped and spam the thread over and over with shit, fuck you sincerely, fucking faggot
>>557179809this, devs complaining here are either shitdevs or nodevs, or just trolling ironically >>557180002topkek, this
>>557180347You can't pin their behavior on me. I had nothing to do with what they do. I'll take partial responsibility for /g/ tourists and Fygoon, but this is a step too far.
should I submit my game jam game to the next demo days or is that gay
>>557180190this is true, i imagine in say 5 years AI will all be in the backend for market products, i see genie from google being the kickstart here, you'll probably have a very expensive VR AI experience like the hollowdeck or someshit, but it will cost as much as your rent and be the new top business, just my 2 clipped and fake cent
>>557180541Which one was yours?
>>557180536fuck you>>557180541do whatever, if you want feedback on your game and feel it's ready for that then obviously do it, i just lie about how i make it from scratch, fuck the author of the gamedev and rules and ego and fuck that retard
>>557180769BIO-SUBMARINERI'd still like to get further feedback on it
I’m depressed over how it feels like nobody likes me
>>557180863put your trip back on tranny retard, or if not a tranny tripfag then stop glooming idiot, i imagine you are white, you've already won, the future is actually bright believe it or not, you'll see.
>>557180002>Focus on gameplayYou dont want this from azur
>>557180190I'm not saying AI can't make good games or can't be used in game development.I'm saying if your AI generated game is made in 0 time and with 0 effort then it'll just be more slop added to the pile. You'll release SpaceShooter#5006 and a couple minutes later SpaceShooter#5007 will be out.No time or effort just means it's easy to copy and redistribute over and over and over again leading to your generic shit product being buried along with the other generic shit products.You need to make something compelling and good and something that can't just be copied within a day if you want to stand out.
>>557180846Oh kino. Are you going to expand on it?
>>557181062>I'm not saying AI can't make good games or can't be used in game development.>I'm saying if your AI generated game is made in 0 time and with 0 effort then it'll just be more slop added to the pile.lol obviously
I'm redoing the refactor. For this I'm going to use hashmaps. A library I like is tidwall's hashmap library. Just a single source and header file, very shrimple to use.
>>557181149Yeah that's the plan. Try to make it a more complete game with some more content, and better gameplay
>>557181161I don't get why people post>I MADE THIS CRAP IN A DAYIf it's so obviously true though'
>>557181062Correct
>>557181189are you unironically retarded?
>>557181062you're like a guy seeing an automobile in 1880 and saying there's no way it'll ever be better than a horse.
>>557181271Happy for you. Can't wait to buy it on steam
>>557181367current gen he's right, but he's going to look like you described in say 3-4 years, wish there was a non rigged polymarket alt that i could bet on, but oh well.
>>557181351What is wrong with the tidwall hashmap library? Making your own is fine but I like tidwall's code.
>>557181271This looks cool. GL anon
>>557180846Did you end up getting the money or were you cucked out of your winnings?
>>557179741>>557181189You'll be back on the right path once you seriously learn how to use Godot or Unity. There's a billion things you need to do in gamedev and you've wasted more than 10% years of your working life on less than 10% of what composes a game, and so you're not on track to finishing within your lifetime.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXUScrtPaV4t. former mentally ill enginedev
>>557181490well I'm not concerned that in 2026 a million guys will submit space shooters made in 1 day, but I'm assuming that wasn't the point of >>557178928
>>557181529seriously bro?
>>557181189
>>557181367>>557181490No I'm absolutely correct even going forward 50 years.If anyone can replicate it instantly on their home computer then it's worthless as a product.It would be like trying to sell food in a world where a Star Trek replicator exists.At that point the product becomes the AI generation software and not the game.You'll be paying a subscription to OpenAI to play "MyElderScrolls6" on your rented laptop.
>>557181756nta i'm just interested in the topic, a few years ago i was a pessimist but the current political and technological climate is warming my heart on the future
>>557181435>>557181616Thanks anons>>557181716It was delivered promptly and without issue
>>557181798Yeah seriously, what is wrong with the library? Why am I a retard for using it?>>557181883>>557181736>unity>godon'tI'm going to be mentally ill forever, no matter what.
>>557181189>>557181736He's right, froggy.
>>557181895>No I'm absolutely correct even going forward 50 years.picrel, but what you fail to understand is compute, sure you can run a shitty AI at home, or you can subscribe and get the gold standard, what are you retarded? dumb faggot, cattle.
>>557181895well that's what I'm saying. in 2 years capable devs will be making one game every 6 months when before it would have taken them 2 years per game.and in 4 years, big companies like Microsoft will be offering a service where AI makes personalized games.the point is there won't be any way for any of us to make money from gamedev, and I don't know how satisfying will it be as a hoby if an AI can run circles around you.
>>557181926All right just cuz I know there was a lot of controversy surrounding the game jam so I figured I'd get it direct from the source. Thanks
>>557182125I feel that’s vastly overestimating
>>557178928Soulless. unpolished crappy games will stand out as human made. Agdg will thrive in this new era!
>>557182036Then you're never going to make it, no matter what.
working on creme princess now. Fronthair and dress tweaks.The back hair is gonna be pain to deal with.
>>557182125Time is ticking and it makes me nervous. I'm 3 years deep in a project that's shaping up really well. I need to get this one out + 1 more sloppier viral game and I think I'll be set with enough money to live off the interest for a long time. Crazy times ahead... I'm sure those of us skilled at dev will find new ways to make money with AI game dev though.
>>557182125you have a fucked up mindset, you only get one shot at life you know, all the fantasy to help you live and die is a lie, you are worm food in your future, no matter what, so why not make an impact with your own brain? you'll all be studied in depth in the coming years by AI don't you know, everything is logged and fed to AIfuck the serpant.
Use seeddance 2 for you games cutscenes
>>557178301>>557178819Why is there a strip of light on the chin, despite being in a shadow?The shadow reaching along the chin into the lit half of the face would indicate that this area is where the "underside" begins, but then there's a highlit running along the chin in the shadow opposite of the light source from the left. Then of course the eyes are derpy but that goes without saying.This can't be finished.

Oh so I guess I should explain what I'm doing. I had some clunky code where data I didn't want to save to a file was indexed but then you had to add the index to the ecs components. But there were clunky aspects if you want to serialize that index so I'll just save a key to the file instead.>>557182410That's okay. I just want to be happy making my little programs. Nothing wrong with an eternal amateur posting on the amateur game dev general.
>>557182669
>>557182669>I just want to be happy making my little programs.You're clearly not when you're coming here to cry about how unhappy you are with your progress. Stop coping and rationalizing and start getting to the actual making the game part of gamedev.

>>557189195is Caribbean Crashers a good game?
>>557189038It looks like ms paint drawn by a retarded 15 year old girl.I'm sorry but if you can't see this you have the same disease as azure.
>>557189195if Zukowski wanted to get new victims for his grift, posting his content to agdg would be very cost effective
>>557189494>Review score: 73%>Average playtime: 0.6hNo. It's a lucky outlier at best.>It seems that a large portion of this game's owners come from an unconfirmed source. This can be the result of giveaways, bundles or legitimate purchases.The dev probably gave out thousands of free keys.
>>557189927Yeah it doesn't seem very good, I guess it's hard to sell a bad game. Weird how that works
>>557189595Go away crab. This is why no one respects aggy devs. All they do is crab. No one is going to listen to you if you can't even understand the concept of CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM. CONSTRUCTIVE.Why don't you post your art? Go on, show us your Twitter. You probably don't even have 500 followers.
>>557191008>>557191008if art is gamedev then so are mods
>>557191008NTA, but you can expect constructive criticism the first time and maybe even the second and third times, but dozens of anons have already provided extensive constructive criticism to perma/beg/s like Azur and Cris, and they still haven't improved all after so many years, at which point, crabbing SHOULD be the norm.
I think this is the last game I make before needing a job. It hinges on how well it does but chances are it wont make it to release before I need a job>>557185123>that pic
>hasn't released a game in 6 months>push new game back to release a massively overdue update for their only real success>other release is an idle game that literally looks like windows 98>readily admit they'll be bankrupt in less than 6 months if they can't release a successwhere did it go so wrong
>>557192051kill yourself
Bros my release is about a month away and I only have 150 wishlists. It's so over. I don't even want to fucking release my piece of shit game that nobody wants.
>>557191008Has azur dev posted his twitter? How many followers does he have?
>>557191594Constructive criticism either makes art better or doesn't, but crabbing actively makes the art worse.
Give gamers what they want.
>>557192146>where did it go so wrongit didn't go wrong any more than not winning the lottery goes wrong. the chances were always slim because that's how the entertainment industry works.
>>557183910See >>557180002
>>557193017
>>557192253then don't release it until it starts getting wishlists. remove your trailer if you have it, and have AI generate new screenshots based on your game and keep changing them until you start getting decent wishlist numbers. then change your game to look like AI suggested.
>>557183910Don't listen to the crabs. HUGE improvement! Looks way better than before!Keep up the good work! When's the demo going to be up? Can't wait to play it! Keep us posted!*Hugs**Hugs**Hugs*
>>557192904The art will never get better, and therefore they should give up and fuck off instead of wasting everyone's time. That's the message that low-vision, low-talent, low-skill losers need to get.
>>557183910Something just seems wrong with the character proportions and faces. I think for your art-style, you should look at signalis concept art and try to understand what you can improve.
>>557193489He's never going to improve he's a mentally ill homosexual who can't regulate his emotions and gets upset when he gets real feedback rather than whatever faggotry >>557193384 this is.Anons have been telling him the same thing for ages.Azuredev, if you don't hire an artist, this game will flop. You need an ARTIST.
>>557193810i look like this
>>557193909Grim. I can almost relate, being autistic has kept me working on a gamedev much longer than normies could; but a bit more and someone could end up spiraling in non-improvement cycles.
>>557193909>artist propagandadon't listen to them, Azur. the reason your games flop is the reason almost all games flop. they need to be exceptional. there are successful games with art much worse than yours.
>>557193909It is a hobby anon. I don't get upset by crab and I just ignore non actionable "advice".
I mean chuds, this is starting to look like a real game, wtf.lmao.
>>557193413What about high vision, low talent, mid skill
>>557196539>high vision>low talentThat's contradictory. Vision is one of the most critical talents. You're likely a low vision retard too dunning kruger to realize how low vision and low skill you really are. PYW
>>557195915bruh
>>556855662It depends highly on the task. I'd say for what I'm doing now (implementing each weapon and making it as juicy as possible), the improvement in productivity is 1.5x. For building the engine itself it was a 10x improvement. And then there are tasks like >>557171387 which are definitely at least 20x improvement, since the AI can completely verify the work itself and also manage running the simulations properly. The main benefit, however, is lower cognitive overload, just lower usage of your brain, which frees your brain up to either work longer, work on other projects, or do other brain intensive activities during the day. So it's definitely worth it. I'd pay up to 5x what I'm paying now ($100 monthly) with no further improvements on the model. Although GLM-5 just came out (an open source model) and it's a model that's very comparable to Opus 4.5, and for my workload I didn't notice a strong difference between Opus 4.5 and 4.6, so I could just use that for cheapter if I wanted. In any case, it's definitely worth it, and only going to get cheaper as time passes. You just need to know where it's saving you time and where it isn't, although for most tasks it's saving you either time or cognitive effort.

What’s the most efficient way to program a fixed camera system?
i know a lot of people will disagree, but the gaming market is HEAVILY undersaturated.it is oversaturated only in a sense that its the best we can have with limited human resources and budgets. but objectively speaking, there's very little choice in games. there's 1000s of genres and you can be happy if your genre has even 1-2 good games.it's not undersaturated in a sense that "you can easily outcompete those best games", because it takes resources and energy to make games. but it's undersaturated in a very objective statistical sense.i'd argue if it wasn't undersaturated, you'd be playing games right now instead of being here. it is actually a fact that i dont play so much anymore, because most games are shit abandonware, poorly designed, lack the content needed to be fun etc. etc. or its simply not the niche i like.
> Dev time: Yes> Music: Intravenous 2 OST> Programing socks: On> Monster: WhiteTime to lock in ... then space out every 2 minutes doing this... I guess the movement is atleast fun?

>>557198217Being able to conceptualize something completely nonviable and unmarketable is not vision. You cannot design without understanding all critical aspects of the design space.
>>557198585NTA but I don't think so
>>557198608>everyone's brain is the same!dumbfuck
>>557198609So basically don't ignore programming, gotcha.If you can program the game's systems and make the models/animations, the rest is open season
>>557197015It looks amazing now.
Where do gamedevs go to find artists? I'd like to make art assets for someones game.
>>557199030use AI
>>557197825A series of triggers that reference a camera that activates when the player enters said trigger would give you the most control.You could also have a "smart" system that checks for the closest camera that the player is visible in and that would avoid the tediousness of hand placing triggers but this gives you far less control.
>>557183910I think you'd really benefit from studying anatomy and form. Your art is improving but it still lacks volume.
>>557198790>video games are just code and graphicsNGMI retard
>>557199140I mean, a smart camera system sounds like a lot less of a hassle, but you're right, it would get really, really uncontrollable.I'm trying to keep this as compressed as possible so it's easier to manage as a system.

I'm 100% honest.AI is amazing once you learn how to use it.
The day leading to The Game Awards 2025 was amongst the most exciting of my life. After 2.5yrs of passionately working on Highguard, we were ready to reveal it to the world. The future seemed bright.Everyone I knew who had any connection to the team or project had the same sentiments:“I trust this team wholeheartedly.”“If there’s one project nobody in the industry is worried will fail, it’s yours.”“This has mainstream hit written all over it.”“There’s no way this will flop.”The internal pre-reveal feedback, even from unbiased sources, was quite positive, and where it was negative, it was constructive, and often actionable. People who played the game, including us, had a blast. And since we were an independent, self-published studio built with royalties in mind, many of us were hoping this could finally be the thing that broke the millennial financial curse.But then the trailer came out, and it was all downhill from there. Content creators love to point out the bias in folks who give positive previews after being flown out for an event, but ignore the fact that when their negative-leaning content gets 10x the engagement of the positive, they’ve got just as much incentive to lean into a disingenuous direction, whether consciously or not.The hate started immediately. In addition to dogpiling on the trailer, I personally came under fire due to my naïveté on Twitter, which almost all of my now-former coworkers had learned to avoid during their previous game launches. After setting my Twitter account to private to protect my sanity, many content creators made videos and posts about me and my cowardice, amassing millions of views and inadvertently sending hundreds of angry gamers into my replies. They laughed at me for being proud of the game, told me to get out the McDonald’s applications, and mocked me for listing having autism in my bio, which they seemed to think was evidence the game would be “woke trash.” All of this was very emotionally taxing.

>>557198609this is why airplanes suck
>>557199395What aren't they, then?If the game's systems work and the models/animations work, then what's missing?The hardest part of a game is the technical bits, and once you get those out of the way you can begin experimenting and building off of those systems.For example, I've spent the last 4 or so months putting together a combo system. It's relatively simplistic at the moment in terms of what you can actually do, but it's also incredibly easy to add more to. Legit, this thing is incredibly customizable and I made certain it would be that way. You can adjust the direction of attacks, the distance, the timing, which attacks they lead into, the conditions upon which you trigger certain attacks, and basically build entire chains with ease. Thus, when it comes time for me to REALLY get into it, I can easily expand upon it.I accomplished this via a public class as well as a node and graph system.That's all that matters. Programming. Art is for later

>>557200925
>In discussions online about Highguard, Concord, 2XKO, and such, it is often pointed out by gamers that devs like to blame gamers for their failures, and that that’s silly. As if gamers have no power. But they do. A lot of it. I’m not saying our failure is purely the fault of gamer culture and that the game would have thrived without the negative discourse, but it absolutely played a role. All products are at the whims of the consumers, and the consumers put absurd amounts of effort into slandering Highguard. And it worked.Many of Wildlight’s former devs will now be forced to assimilate back into the actual corporate industry many gamers accused Wildlight of being a part of. >Now, every time someone thinks about leaving the golden handcuffs behind in favor of making a new multiplayer game the indie way, they’ll say “but remember how gamers didn’t even give Wildlight a chance.” Soon, if this pattern continues, all that will be left are corporations, at least in the multiplayer space.

>>557198609Let me tell you something about a ranking system.-Aggression. Measured by how often you successfully attacked enemies.-Combo. How high you were able to combo on average-Lethality. How quickly you killed enemies and cleared encounters on average-Survivability. How little damage you took.-Style. How many different attacks you used in a combo on average.-Unreliant. How few items you used.All are accomplished via either float timers or int counters. For example, aggression is accomplished via two counters, attacks and successful attacks.Attack goes up whenever you attack, successful attack goes up whenever you land a hit, detected via hitbox. At the end of a combat encounter, your successful attacks are divided by the attack number, and then multiplied by 100.The more attacks landed, the higher your aggression percentage.Combos are done via a timer. When you start attacking, there is a timer. This basically checks a list of all the possible attacks in the game, and the more of those get checked off, the better. Done via a Hashset. Repeating the same attacks, even for different combos, is a penalty. Lethality is pretty simple, actually. It’s literally just an invisible stopwatch timer for a combat encounter. The lower the timer, the better.And so on.Is that not thought out enough for you?I more focus on the opposite. How does it work rather than how does it feel. This is the only way to avoid feature creep.

Just now realizing my game I've been working on for the better part of a year is gonna flop. Getting close to release and nothing short of a miracle is gonna make it sell more than like 10 copies. There is no third act where a streamer plays it or one of my tweets goes viral and it blows up. I'm just doomed to be unrewarded for my efforts and have this thing I've devoted my time and money to go largely unappreciated. I never thought I'd get rich from game dev, but I at least thought some people would find my game fun.

>>557164101I am making a spinning head thingy cherub staff for my wizard class (might go to a cleric if ever add one).
>>557210234Well, I'm making what's basically a 3D action game with light puzzle elements. Nothing too complicated.I've already finished most of the combat controls and like 3/4ths of the movement, and am currently working on the fixed camera controls.I also have a vague map design that could use some refinement, as well as a few models I'm working on. I'm gonna be honest, the pitch I have in mind is pretty god damn doable, I just think I'd need a team to help speed it up a bit.
>>557210437GMI
>>557210437first person viewwill probably fill in the hole in the bottom but you get the idea
I'm going to dev now. You may wish me luck.
>>557210437>>557210621GMI, 1300 reviews minimum
>>557210437I leik. What program?
>>557210346got a big jump at the start and it was on page 1 for most subbed of the week for a few hours
>>557210621Hexen inspired?
>>557210437>>557210621in the middle the textures are very blunt and hard on the eyes, do you have LOD? also blend the textures roughly maybe, since it's low poly anyway? idk im retarded
>>557205868No it was dogshit, I was fucking pranked by the thumbnail and was waiting for it to get better.Thought it was just a bad cold open.
>>557210437I think the difference between PS1 and PS2 graphics is pixelation. You gotta smooth those textures a lot
>>557175429>>557178490It looks like the teletubby place.
>>557210346also the title is skirmish, which has shit mods so that attracts people searching, also you can play however you want
>>557210603When I say "Light puzzle elements" I mean stuff like "Figure out a combination" or "Find this button" or "Get this key." Nothing insane.As for the combat, I've actually made a very functional combo system. Legit I could put this combo script on the market.
>>557210791Nice. It's good you're having fun with it still. Maybe a couple of more big feature updates and a little advertising or coverage outside of 4chan and you can get a few more big user boosts.
>>557195804>Get an artist>Non actionable
>>557211376yeah i just wanted the game to be how this mod is, it changes AI completely and adds a bunch of new shit like AI high commander and intel sharing with hashmaps and shit, but i used AI for everything so yeah, i got dislike bombed from posting here lel, but yeah feature wise it's pretty good... a little rough around the edges for the arsenal menu but that's fucking piss easy to do i have just been avoiding it because it's annoying
I still do not know what to fucking call this thing
>he didnt start with the title>ngmi
POW
>>557212251lel how many tokens did they run compared to the test they did on the public facing gimped API from competitors
>>557211912My problem is that I chose a random ass working title and now I can't think of anything else to call it. That's just the name now.
>>557212349lol I did the same thingfeels wrong to call it anything else
>>557212314yeah its gonna take a few years for that to be affordable for the masses tokens wise but i think we're gonna reach the limit of llms in the next 2 years, cant improve more than that
>>557212691they will switch from llms to some other algo that is better, probably from a SOTA llm in like a year or so
>>557211912I was brainstorming on my way to college."Shadow... Journey? Fuck no""Umbra... Something?""Story of Umbra? Nah, too generic.""What's a word for journey? Umbra Quest? Nah."Actual shit I said. I'm trying to think of something distinct. A lot of good games have a name that sticks out.
>>557210685>Umm that's my lineGood luck, sis.
>>557213421Yeah I believe I already posted about it but it's called a "purple cow" name. The term is from a book called "Level up! The guide to great game design"Basically it's a name that you can't immediately tell what its relevance to the game is, like "Halo" but when you become more familliar with the game, you understand its significance. "Purple cow" names are not easy to come up with but they're great.
changed the shitty placeholder debreif on gamestart to this"Welcome, this is a PVP/PVE gamemode that can be played singleplayer or multiplayer, this is still in development so please report bugs on the workshop page, tldr for the gamemode is blufor opfor get waves and points for those waves, when the AI or a player on that team kills an enemy inf/vehicle they vampire those points for their team, if it's a player you also get "player points" which you can spend in the arsenal box at your base, the little bleep you hear when looking at an enemy is you relaying enemy positions to your high commander, he will let the other units know also, enjoy and play however you like :)"
>>557212251I never understood why google wasn't always just crushing the AI race, they have the most data, the most data centers, some of the best and most seasoned engineers, were among the first to even take AI seriously, but continuously they were basically mogged.I postulate two possibilities:one, they were too engineer and programmer pilled and didn't think it mattered to hire PhDs and academics.two, they wanted the AI bubble to happen
>>557214273
>>557214016Yeah, but Halo got it's name from "What if we made an RTS game on a giant 3D Halo?".
>>557210685*roundhouse kicks you in the head**tosses cape behind back, and dramatically walks to the exit*gl
https://youtu.be/kRsI-DKAD-Mhow do I leave tutorial hell?
>>557214568Yes but the point is that you couldn't immediately tell that unless you play the game. Also another point is that the word "Halo" itself would become associated with the game and that's another advantage.
>see game called mewgenics>its about breeding cats not mogging chincels with your jawlineFucking what?
>>557214915stop watching tutorials. if you want, I can link a tutorial that explains how to stop relying on tutorials.
>>557215504
I think Marnix should make a Mewgenics like
>>557215634>I think Marnix should make a [AA tactics game]
>>557214016Yeah, that's a good point. It needs to be something that's associated WITH the game rather than the other way around
i hope you are all having a good night/day, i will use this post to say i am pro AI for gamedev, it's retarded not to use it
>>557215504help what does this post mean? can someone make a tutorial to explain this post?
>>557215984just take whatever is the most popular searched meme on google and make a shitty cookie clicker clone if you need money so bad>>557216637it's a joke at your expense, thirdie
>>557216717if you use templates for everything labled and properly organized you can just keep shitting these out for the flavor of the month meme till it hitssmart money though is to liquidize and jump on the spacex IPO as soon as it goes public, shit will juice HARD because you know elon is an autistic retard but he gets shit done
>>557216717The real way you make money is through getting a game that's actually popular. Enduringly so rather than FOTM cash grab
>>557216940>Enduringly so rather than FOTM cash grab>The real way you make money isfair but you don't have the dedication or talent for that, IF money is your goal just shit it up, indonesians and jeets are making bank doing shit like this, and they are low IQ compared to you, but you need to reroute your priorities
>855 mixed reviews>released 3 FebAnd yet it's on my Steam front page being recommended to me? Would any other game with these metrics ever get this much exposure? Did fatfuck gabencunt take a bribe from Gaijin?
>>557217547i believe you can pay for marketing within steam
>>557217897>>557217547no i am wrong you cannot pay steam for inmarket exposure, perhaps it is just a shitty algorithm or maybe exposure from off steam and the visits ticked it up in the algo, who knows
>>557217547Reviews don't matter. Only revenue and active player count matters.
>>557172937Thanks. I think I have finally found the perfect art style for my game. The dwarf characters have a bit of an old Nintendo charm specifically.>>557185313He's a golem monster now. His hands move around the player smoothly just like the puppet characters from his game.Thanks for the feedback, frens.
>>557217547You do realize that some games get frontpage campaigns before release right? Steam WILL promote some games no matter what, it happened with megabonk.
NOBODY TOLD ME I NEEDED CALCULUS TO MAKE VIDEO GAMES
>>557219130that's because it had off site attention>>557219201use AI retard
>>557219201my brother in christ, have you ever tried to learn calculus or do you just give up the second you see a scary looking equation? it's not that hard, even mentally retarded people can learn it if they try
>>557219130>3042 peak player count on release day, which is only 3% of its all time peak of 117,334 two weeks laterTake your flopdev delusional cope elsewhere, loser.
>>557219201You don't necessarily need calculus to make video games, but your inability to have learned calculus by the age of 18 (you are over 18, right?) is indicative of a low-IQ learning disability, which will prevent you from making video games. I've successfully taught calculus to 9 year olds before.
>>557219636still more than highguard
>>557220029>Highguard>Review score: 45%>Average playtime: 3.1h>Megabonk>Review score: 95%>Average playtime: 25.6hJust like make good fun games that people want to play.
>>557219636it was on the frontpage 6 different times the minute it released, it better have those numbersalso zukjeet nodev tranny ready to bootlick (dont shoot up your school)
what do
>>557220003And did these 9 year olds know how to apply it to real world problems or were they just memorizing a sequence of steps and repeating them without really understanding what they were doing?
>>557220191>Just like make good fun games that people want to play.Where is your good fun game that people want to play?
does anyone know how to make krita transform tool faster? It's so fucking slow on my machine
>>557219201If it takes you longer than a couple hours to finish the Khan Academy differential/integral calculus courses, you're ngmi.
>>557220003>>557219201what is calculus i don't think i've ever used that
>>557221190nerd shit
>>557221190the thing that notch used to make minecraft
JUAjust use AI, no one needs to learn algebra in 2026
I am trying to make a multiplayer visual novel in Lua/Love2D. I think my game loop is crazy, something looks/feels wrong with it. I have condensed the code to as follows:CurrentScene = introFunction.love.mousepressed Check the scene, scene match menu? Check imaginary boundaries where button is drawn and change game state based on scene and where the mouse clicked. If the scene is menu and the boundary for play. Change state to game page 1.Love.load The timer to exit the intro FontsLove.update(dt) Is it the intro? Check timer. If timer is expired change scene to menu.Love.draw() Draw frame and background. If intro, draw intro If menu, draw menu If game, draw game.Before I get too far in the weeds, shouldn't my input checking be done in love.update()?Also, given that I want to network this eventually and have save states and inventory, shouldn't I be keeping track of the game state in a table somehow?
>>557221424oh i just use c++ i think i'll be fine without it
>>557219201if you know how calculus works in theory, you don't actually need to solve the eqautions, use an online solver
>>557221454>whoa AI solved this problem for me!>now to solve the problem and see if the AI was right or just made it up!what is gained?
>>557221476>Also, given that I want to network this eventually and have save states and inventorydo we tell him...
>>557221454kek no the best way to move toward is actually to educate yourself so you can find flaws in the AI logic and correct it, i do this constantly, i am providing value and asking for nothing in return, get mad at me
I feel like any college that receives government funding should be required to record all their lectures and make them available for free to tax payers.
>>557220620They weren't required to really apply it yet, but I have no doubt that they would be able to when asked. That tutoring center I was working at included both 9 year old asian kids successfully learning calculus and 9 year old niggers failing to learn to count and add. That job was one of my first redpills on the reality of natural IQ.>>557221190Calculus is the basis for most physical phenomenon.
>>557221476Your code definitely needs to be more structured. I hope you have atleast a basic view manager where in love.update/love.draw it does an "if game_current_view == menu, intro, game" and so on to seperate them. As for the imaginary boundaries thing you should seperate that into its own button structure aswell. For input it seems like love2d doesn't allow you to constantly check for single key presses or releases in the update function, you can only check for keys held down in the update so you're probably doing the right thing.
>>557221839i agree, same with books, too bad that guy got vanned before he uploaded it all.
>>557221327Video game development is nerd shit. If you can't handle nerd shit, you don't belong here.
>>557222228i was merely attempting a differing mindset as humor
>>557221839but then chuds on twitter would post clips of clownfessors indoctrinated kids into extremist political ideologies and get them cancelled
>>557218183>Reviews don't matter. Only revenue and active player count matters.Oh well that explains everything.
Wanted to make something different from an animated portrait when you interact with the fusing mechanism, so I made a robot that does it. Thoughts?
>>557181883>posting the edit

>dad suggests chemical castration out of nowhereis it true that it kills your dev drive?
>>557219201I don’t know why people say this.I’m good at math, but it hasn’t helped me with programming
fist person perspective: male protagonist because I'm himthird person perspective: female protagonist so I can see her ass and boobs
>>557222979Rust is mainstream, the ones doing their own thing are using Zig or something more obscure.
>>557223349>>dad suggests chemical castration out of nowhere>is it true that it kills your dev drive?
>>557217547Valve is the same company that permanently banned people that figured out how the item drop algorithm worked in tf2. Anyone who thinks they aren't making backroom deals is a fucking retard lmao.
>>557223349you're dad is fucking based and knows about your pedofilia you tranny freak, he's going to put you in a chokehold and assrape you before he turns you in, also going to pull your intenstines out like that cartel video i watched yesterday he squeled like a pig, and so will you when justice comes, fuck you
>>557223391Horror games in general have a larger than normal female demographic so if you're making a horror game you should make the protagonist female.
>>557223407the rust haters convinced the normies that rust is bad for gamedev
>>557223349wouldnt it make you less distracted tho
>>557223586>2relax
>>557223845>>2>relaxkill yourself before you get tortured
>>557222821It's cool and it fits.
>>557221602Tell me what? (panic). Save states shouldn't be super hard. >>557221989Yes, they are separated in love.draw. (love.update only changes the intro scene to the menu scene.) It feels weird that the entirety of the game state is based on the mouse and the current scene and that the drawing of the screen is based on that. I think I'd like to somehow define the scenes/clickable buttons as a table, then those instructions on how to draw the scene are passed to draw. If I keep going with what I have, I'll have the draw function containing how to draw each scene as a very long if, elseif, elseif, etc. statement. Not terrible. But may get confusing and slow me down later. Alright, I've made my decision. The only thing I'm going to change is to make the function for checking the imaginary boundaries for the drawn buttons, will also tell the draw function how/where/if to draw the buttons.

ok ideaguy time: you know how books have "unreliable narrators" who mislead the reader? what if your game had an "unreliable player character" who didn't always listen to your inputs and would sometimes just straight fucking dip and leave you behind?
