Sleep well agdg
Well, I got the idle animation working at least. Now to figure out how to port this to Unity while overcoming Blender's desire to name it something else
>>558298347How do I make a whole game like those of pc88, or just any modern features in http://tululoo.com/ and also with alternative math, like,only +-/ and not even angles, or trigs, abs etc. just pure linear equations with only three signs above.
>>558298808vile pedotroon creature, perish
>>558299497Unrelated to your export issues but Right-click your model in Object Mode and select Shade Smooth.
First time I'm able to program in days. Playing around with interactivity. Cookie behavior changes whether you are in the kitchen or not. Looking at the kitchen's south exit changes text whether cookie is in the inventory.
>>558299959Nice

>>558299959this is the first type of game i ever tried to make when i first started to program ages ago. i never have made a decent text adventure game all these year later.

>>558302432>girls
>>558302785my first impression is that it is a bit slow, and it reminds me of Beyblade but boringneeds more speed and chaos
>>558302785this match in particular no, but I like the concept
>>558302785I was gonna say something mean but actually yes, that was a little fun to watch
>>558302432Chuds are uncreative and incapable of making anything. That's why you have no game btw.
>>558303140Awww
>>558303140i was waiting for this reply. i don't believe it to be true. there is probably greater diversity of ideas amongst chuds just a lack of execution and no i will not post my game and summon the tranny discords to stalk and harass me.

I asked valve to ban India, Pakistan and the Philippines from buying my game.
>>558302905>>558302970>>558303018>>558303649Thanks for the responses. I'm not really sure how much "faster" I can make it without it being uncontrollable. I was thinking about maybe making the arena start out surrounded by a destructible glass wall that you need to slam your opponent into repeatedly before you can go for a knockout victory. That way the players can zoom around a bit more without being at risk of immediately rolling themselves out. I will certainly be making it far more juicy in terms of more VFX with lots of hitstop abilities like picrel.>>558303741>>558304431We both took from the same common "inspiration": https://x.com/EarclacksGreat artists steal.>>558304950What kind of theming would you suggest? I was thinking of just slapping some unlockable friendslop faces and vanity decorations like PEAK and calling it a day.

I have no idea how to make it so that my model imports as a default T-Pose instead of the first frame of Idle
>>558309118You have to model it in T-pose to begin with.
>>558309118Why do you want it to import as T-Pose instead of idle?

how can i export a blender curve
>>558309401IDK, it might get fucky in the scene?
>>558309118you can decouple the animation from the model and import them separately
What's some good animation software that isn't blender? I don't like blender's system and I expect there to be some neat and tidy simple FOSS program I can use instead. Rigging in that program would also be neat if available.
>>558308196Thanks fren, as soon as I figure out how to make the ai smarter, I'll model, and work on the campaign mode.
>>558309118unity?
>>558309675How do?
>>558309426I think quite obviously a woman drew that to make a jab at chuds. (Women cannot be chuds.)

>>558309975Contrary to popular flopdev belief, game development is one of the most lucrative and scalable industries to start a small business in. It is viable on extremely low fixed costs and zero variable costs. However, unfortunately for the flopdevs, the skill floor requirement to make it is extremely high.
>>558310284Tried without modifiers, still didn't work
>>558309856You have to export twiceDo one export with just the Mesh and Skeleton, then another export with just the animation data, then combine them in engine
>>558310367You can’t predict if a game is going to be fun or not.
>>558310505? you just design a fun game
>>558310505You can prototype and validate if a game is fun enough in as short as a few hours or days at most (this is something a flopdev would never do).

Daily time-wasting progress-omitting donutpost.I just can't quit them. They're not even particularly good donuts but it's sweet greasy bread, what more do I need?Yesterday I worked a bit extra on my game and reduced the time I owe it to 14 hours and 10 minutes. I posted I was going to do it, so I did, even if I didn't feel like working. Thanks for being my accountability buddies. Today I'm going to reduce my work debt some more.My goal at the moment is to get the game presentable and playable in 4 months. It's still missing some major systems and has no content, so it's completely unrealistic but I want to see how close can I get. I used to be a lot faster on my earlier games.

Over 2 months since I started the prototype -_- I was literally only supposed to take 7 days but then iirc I ramped it up to 10 days and then 14 days. I was supposed to make 2 prototypes on ideas I have. Yet somehow here I am over 60 days later on one game that might not even count as a prototype anymore. I don't get it how do some people prototype so quickly?

>>558319749gamerpig buyer's remorse: the post
becoming a game developer made me hate gamers
>>558320175Many such cases
>>558320175No game developers who really think deeply about gamers retain a high opinion of them; game developers either despise gamers or they have never thought seriously about them.
>>558320575>game developers either despise gamersexcept the ones who boughted (and didn't refund) my game, those guys are all cool
>>558319816>Any clue what happened to you?Probably rising production standards on my part and the increased awareness of what corners I was cutting. I try to cut the same corners and not worry about things I was worrying when I lacked experience, but I just can't let some things slide. That 1 frame mismatch between the sprite and the physical body didn't bother me before but now I'll spend an hour or two figuring out why it happens. Or if I get a crash, production stops until I figure out what caused it and how to fix it. And back then I used to have variables like enginePower and engineDamageLevel while now I have a VehicleComponent class and a VehicleComponentDefinition class and every vehicle has its own list of components with its own characteristics. Does it make the game more fun? No, but I can't go back to the previous way of doing things.>>558319706I feel your pain.

the more i make good progress and the more i see others don't, the more i realize that others simply aren't good enough to make a game. they lack the clarity what to make, they lack skills, they over-engineer and avoid using engines, they hate scoping, they say they have no ideas. they just don't have it in them to make a game.but i think the core reason is their lack of intention. if someone's first intention is to make a game they'll find ways to make a game, so they'll learn all the stuff i mentioned above. but people without that clear intention just float along and never commit to a project.

It won't happen overnight but you will see people make more and more concessions on what's ethical vs unethical AI use
I've tried to use Claude to make small 2D idler clicker and I am either terrible at explaining what I want, or I am just not cut for creative stuff. Or I need to understand better how to make use of it. But it just came out so ugly I dont even know where to start. Would Claude be able to make something like Insider Trading? (visually, not a fan of the card stuff)
Honest question: if I love spending a long time drawing intricate designs but hate having to redraw them over and over for animation purposes because perspective and consistency are hard, should I give 3D/low poly a try? How hard is it to get into that as someone with a bit of art and programming experience, but no experience with modeling? I always thought of 3D as way harder than 2D, but as I scaled what I do up I'm no longer sure lol. Hand drawing ribbon physics is hell.
>>558335874And?AI bros can't compete with artist using AI because the issue is that AI bros lack the mental training to discern good from bad, they are blind to poor taste or quality issues.Samewise, if you're entire diet is modern pop art, you will be unable to prompt about medieval things, or prompt about things that aren't already cliches on games and anime.AI is no diferent from a phone camera.
>>558335936give claude the screenshot. I find giving it visual examples, sketches etc sends it in the right direction more often
When are AIbros making their first game?
I feel guilty reskinning an AI coded game with my art. it's like I'm cheating. I could even disclose the AI code but... I would still feel like I'm gonna get in trouble
>>558336070You can try to make a drawing, then make a 2D puppet rig.But low poly is not that dificult if you have proper ortho references.Once you realize a 3D model is no diferent from a 2D canvas you'll realize you can basically make a 2D object that can be rotated.

>>558335936My guess is vibecoding will be hardest for incremental/iterative games and best suited for real-time emergent/deterministic games like racing games, breakout games, other time attack/arcade games.>>558336165This is not true, there is no such thing as an original artist everything is already building upon something else to create something new. It's just automated photobashing and there's nothing stopping you from modifying or giving AI your own input. If most people were incapable of spotting bad from good art there wouldn't be any advancement in art and there wouldn't be any point in improving your art because nobody can tell anyway.
>>558336283Codebros only care about vibecoding when it introduces memleaks and security issues, only artlet luddites care about anything beyond function and aesthetic
did what i could along with backup up the basics. now it's time to shovel heavy ass snow.
>>558336409I guess. but before I really had to babysit AI, now I just get a full arcade game in one prompt.
>>558336497missing my point.Training a skill allows you to perceive things you weren't previously able to perceive.It's similar to how using a calculator make you unable to do proper mental math.Skipping the process of doing art, actually hinders your mind from developing the skill to see art mistakes.It's not diferent from eating fast food and being a potato couch using a car to your mind.
>>558336691where are your games?
if you can't discern good and bad art, just tell AI to choose art that someone with refined tastes would think is peak. ez.
>>558336301Thanks Anon
>>558336717Calculators are still useful and makes you more efficient, you're not better because you can do math without a calculator you only need to understand how where and why to apply the formula. In that sense experimenting with AI has actually improved my art because I can see something that's very close to my style drawn properly and easily spot the mistakes I've made. In fact for most things I think AI has been a far better teacher than any professor or textbook so far, it's only when you expect it to go from 0-100 production ready/professional level it starts to fumble. But if you've used it to scaffold your knowledge up to that point you have the world's most powerful supercomputer than can usually tell something is off purely by vibes alone and it takes 20W to run.To your last point it only matters if you think having taste is part of your identity. Objectively speaking having "bad" taste is superior because you're eating steak dinner ordering mcdonalds.
>>558337261a nice trick, is to use pixel art as your low poly modelling reference, that's really easy to do if you lack strong art skills.>>558337297I am not saying that AI is not useful.I am saying that you shouldn't skip the process of developing the mental skill.It would like skipping the process of ear training if you're a musician, because AI can make music.
>>558310832I won't press an unrecognizable domain so I can't give feedback.
>>558337439>It would like skipping the process of ear training if you're a musician, because AI can make music.Sure but that's a weird thing to state, it's like expecting people to lose the ability to play instrument just because there's a radio. If you wanna get good you get good and if you wanna generate the same slop as everyone else you just have to give up improving. I don't really see how this is an AI issue it's a human issue
>>558336910>make a game about dodging obstacles on top of a moving trainok now where is yours?
>>558337612using AI wont develop your mental skills.just like you wont develop linear algebra skills if you use godot or unity.
>>558337735>ok now where is yours?Still waiting for Claude to generate it.
>>558337002If it shuts down I will just make my own.
>>558336717>Skipping the process of doing art, actually hinders your mind from developing the skill to see art mistakes.This sounds like bullshit but is very true btw. A few years ago I was so desperate for art assets that I wanted to try AI art. Couldn't afford to pay anyone and figured I could never learn how to draw. Eventually, I did learn how to draw, and I'm glad I did because I learned a lot in the process. Before, I wasn't really aware of things like making sure different figures in the scene should share colors that complement each other, or how to make sure different assets were in perspective compared to one another, or how distant objects should fade in vividity and detail to avoid visual noise. Had I generated the assets and put them together, sure, they could be nice individually, but the composite would lack something.This is also, by the way, why games made with store-bought artist-produced assets typically look bad. Many of the assets are just fine! But, they were made out of context, and the person using them typically doesn't understand how they should put them together. For instance, if you have an image meant to be readable at a distance, it shouldn't have a ton of internal detail that fades to nothing.You really want to work with an artist who understands the vision, or better yet, become that artist yourself>Wait, doesn't that mean that a good artist might be able to make good use of AI?Sadly, yes, which is pretty ironic. If your goal is just to save time and you don't care about the sovl factor or whatever, I bet an artist with a solid understanding of all of this could quickly generate an asset and spend an hour reworking it instead of spending four drawing it. This feels gross to me but IMO it's what big companies are going to push for because they only care about efficiency.
>>558337807I just asked AI, don't know who it is yet(battle mode on lmarena) my next prompt was to make it good. will be a minute
>>558337882Skills that are necessary for an art director, just like how asking AI to write code for you won't get you anywhere unless you're a systems engineer. I'm not sure I have a good frame of reference because I started making game assets and drawing so early in life and got pretty good at it that most of that happens automatically.

>>558338471When is it coming out on Steam?
>>558338721this one is not, sorry to disappoint. my secret one might. many more prompts to go though
>>558338496why are you on an anime website then?
Good Morg'in Aggor
>>558302432You need a strong motvation to actually learn to draw.Wanting to draw cute anime girls is usually one of the strongest reason that can allow you to endure years of no progress in art until you get gud at drawing.It's like asking why is 99.9% of bodybuilders homosexuals.
I'm going to have a character in my game called The Steward who cautions the Player on certain decisions and also gives tutorials.He speaks very fancy and British.
>>558341215Is he also the super secret final boss?
>>558341781That would be very cool
>>558341215my game has a character called Anonymous who tells you to kill yourself
>>558342849Anyone selling "AI agents" is a scammer who is preying on ignorant boomers.
>>558302432I can't speak for other halfway competent devs but as a halfway competent dev I can say that I do it because anime girls are awesome.
>>558342849>We built an AI agent that automates ad management for you. Like, you can give it access to all your Google and Meta accounts and it will manage it for you. Pretty cool. Customers loved it.>We built an AI agent scam startup in our basement but the billion dollar actual AI company outcompeted uslollmao
>>558343251as someone that enjoyed a lot of AI art, it gets boring after a while.It gets boring after a few cool ideas you had to see them.And so what?AI is boring after some tries.
I knew it was fully over 3 years ago when ChatGPT could explain my code to me in rhyme. Idiots are only now realizing that the age of human intellectual labor is at an end. If your game doesn't ship in 3 months, it will never get even a thousand players, even if it's free.
>>558343251>in the near future
>>558343759i give it 9 months
a video game where players attempt to solve the navier-stokes existence and smoothness problem but the eula gives me ownership of their work
>>558343759If it gets to the point where intellectual labor is actually over then money will be useless anyway so making money from your game doesn't matter.
Idea: a videogame where you make my dreamgame for me
a video game where you give me money and get nothing in return
>>558344320that already existsyanderedev
>>558344320I made that video game. 25% of people who bought it haven't played it.
>>558344320

>>558345238sorry, you're hiv+
>>558344372it's called a backlog angong. I bought all the Infinity Engine Games and still have not played them.
>>558345781are you positive?
>>558346010why aren't gamers excited to game anymoreeverything just gets placed on some monolithic backlog that they never get around to finishingcool steam library bro, did you actually play them?
>>558346784its always been over..
>>558346883For some reason, when I do game, I tend toward Mordhau and Space Station 14.But yeah I should try out the backlog.
>>558346010what a coincidence, I'm watching this video right now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zng4VfRZTNA
>>558346784it's been over since my first and last girlfriend dumped me 12 years ago. but maybe if I make a game she'll come back...?
>>558347230she's already married with 3 kids or a blown out whore resembling nothing about the girl you used to likeit's ogre
>>558346883I don't care if my game has 1 minute average playtime as long as not too many people refund it
why is agdg full of doomers? is it zoomers going through teenage hormones or boomers going through a midlife crisis? mostly all nodevs thoeverbetits
>>558348159>was the game bad before the youtuber made a video about it?kek nohiddengemsproponents btfo'd
>>558347230Damn, I thought once you were in, you were in. You can lose being able to get a gf again?
>>558348159flip the argument and see if it makes as much sense
>>558348159>was the game bad before the youtuber made a video about it?no, that's why it did well with exposure retard
>>558348373not just that, but I'm in much better shape than when I was with her and I dress better and I have a lot more money. the problem is the market has changed what with dating apps, the bar has been raised so only a small percentage of guys get a shot.it's exactly the same with making a successful game 12 years ago vs now. the game could be better than most games 12 years ago but the competition is better too and the market has been optimized so the buyers get funneled to the few winners.
>>558348214It's consequence of the crabbing culture.
>>558348574This Pih! is a good game
I kind of understand multiplayer now, cool
>>558348214I have no idea, maybe all the yesdevs made it way back when and there just hasn't been enough influx of new users. I've also noticed people not advertising their own games here>just pushed my demo build to steam but what's the pointIdk what game is it? You could get 20 views with 0 effort are you retarded?
>>558348731The game isn't even out yet
>>558348214Ten years ago we were in the golden age of indie games. 10% of all games that made it on steam made a significant amount of money. Now that number is about 2%. we're in the cardboard age. Nothing to be positive about.
>>558348214they crab for fun, likelyalso too many pedophiles
>>558348159Pretty sure this video is just engagement bait to market his game, or did he just leave out the previous 2 spikes? He'd have a case if wishlists jumped from 20 to 1500 but this all seems within the norm.
>>558349047thankfully we have the power of /agdg/ we can all help each other by leaving positive reviews and gayming the system
>>558330331Yeah I know but for different reasons, large amount of zoomers flowing into gamedev with many having vastly superior skills is hard to ignore. In any case I'm already part way through giving up. I won't be keeping this gamedevving up indefinitely without a nice financial reward.
>>558349221>we can all help each other by leaving positive reviews
>>558349047Yeah :/Ironic how many anons were here then but nooooo "it's a hobby!" Wonder how many changed their tune and are scrambling for the riches they turned their noses up at.
>>558349129His wishlists jumped from ~800 I would guess to ~1100
I feel really depressed
>>558349047I'm used to being poor at this pointI'm making games because it gives me purpose
>>558349401It's right there Apr 11th and Apr 19th and gained traction that whole week because it's easter, people have time to play video games and discover new ones on the weekends. That is organic traffic
The sadness
>>558349634
>>558346883NTA but for me I used to play almost every game I purchased regardless of whether it was on console, handheld, or PC. Somewhere along the way the need to make it overrode my desire for fun. I had games I bought but didn't play for reasons prior to this but now that ampunt has gone up severely due to this mentality and the "no fun allowed, if you have time to focus on gamedev, then go do that!" Then I of course do not do that nor do I touch those games I paid for. :( I just want to be free of ever waging again so I can have fun and relax.
>>558349563>>558349704I'm sorry but I can't fix retardation, even if Gaben gave you your 30% back you'd still be a retard that fell for eceleb clickbait
>>558349882>evidence of algorithm push means you're a nodev
why do so many care about Gaben's 30% when in their case it's like $60?
I read all this shit about algorythms but I canth elp but feel that if I make a really good game itll do well regardlessI know thatll be crushed when I finally release thoughbeit
>>558350134its kind of ludicrous if you think about it30% is a lot
>>558350291$60 is not a lot.
>>558350134>in their case it's like $60?This is common zukjeet projection
>>558350134>no organic traffic>have to pay 30% on top
>>55835033660 American dollars is enough to feed your entire village for like a month.
Why are there so many hashtags? Why don’t they stick to just two so that those two get all the traction?
>>558350782It's like how (you) have many different terms for blacks, jews, indians, trans, and many other groups. People can't decide on one or two terms/hashes and use as many as possible to grab as much attention as possible.
>>558349221>>558349268agdg should dox extortionists because crabbing is the one thing the community can agree on
So we apparently know how Steam buries games that don't do well in the first months. Can anyone prove the opposite, of a good game that stayed buried for, let's say at least 1.5 years until a streamer started playing it?qualifiers:>Cannot have major overhaul or added functionality like multiplayer, total rebalance etc in the last 3 months before popularity spike>No breakout release, must have stayed under 1000 reviews during its launch year>Reviews must have multiplied by an order of 3x minimum during/after popularity spike and pushed it to a minimum of 1000 reviews total>A link to the vod or channel that was first to promote this hidden gemIf Gabencunt and his algorithm is the main obstacle, and paying ecelebs to promote your game is the only way to save it then this should be relatively easy to find
>>558351346support indie devs!!!!
>>558351529>and paying ecelebs to promote your game is the only way to save itMake Betz the eceleb who uses anon written video essays to prop himself up and then he will play your game. Grow past the money driven relationships.

How many games did you play before deciding to get into game dev?
my plan is to max commit the next fotm genre, incrementals are too saturated now but whatever games gets megabonk/balatroon/vampire survivors tier hype i am cloning thati was working on a deckbuilder but sts2 is coming out this year so i put that on the backburner
>>5583520844
>>558351346They paid $10k to be part of a parasocial grift ad.....do they not realize the majority of the fans of these type of people are unlikely to buy games but rather watch their parasocial streamer play the game instead?>inb4 any of these submitters claim it's just a hobbyKek!
>>558352236The people who did buy it have 100 reviews. Those games need to be doxed and they need to fall before devs xan wake up
>>558351346Man if only someone hosted a free expo that didn't require any sort of pay in to participate in it and submissions were happening in less than a month. If anyone finds one let me know ok?

>>558351987gamedev is popular with autistic unfunny redditurds
>>558352571the most impressive part is that its $10, i bought it on sale i think and its a 2-3 hours game after that it becomes repetitive yet he managed to sell at that price

>>558352830
>>558352160Isnt megabonk still recent? Ehy arent you cloning that?
>>558353050from what i can tell a lot of the game's traction is because its made by an eceleb called danydev or something, i dont think you can replicate that even if you make a 3d vampire survivors clone unless youre a youtube savant with millions of views on every video too
>>558353048>1 year after its first popularity spike
>>558353264He hid his name releasing Megabonk, he only formally admitted it when he was about to get an award for successful first release

>>558351529>Can anyone prove the opposite, of a good game that stayed buried for, let's say at least 1.5 years until a streamer started playing it?I don't know the exact VOD/youtube video that made it popular, but Fear and Hunger is a pretty good example of what you're asking for.

>>558352571Same difference. Artstyle that works = amazing art.
>>558353534That's true, though I'm not sure how it got popular. A friend of mine recommended it to me in 2021 before it's mainstream popularity spike and there was 0 content produced for it from what I can tell. It just ramped up slowly until something happened, I think it's related to Twitch changing it's policy on in game nudity and themes. Basically if there's a category for it they are allowed to stream it but must use a safe streamer mode if it's available.

>>558365012That is why you need to make a game that is marketable and has characters that could easily be turned into action figures, plushies, or star in their own comic book series, with spin-offs for all of the side characters in the games.My game, which I will not share with you troglodytes, features a cast of characters specifically designed to be turned into action figures, play sets, and I am also in the process of writing a web comic for their adventures and hijinks. This way, I will not only make great sales through Steam, itch.io, and physical release, but I will also make money through merchandise and TV show or movie contracts.If you didn't spend so much time jerking off to tranime porn, then you would easily have the wherewithal to plan ahead in such a fashion.

Gabencunt's fuckbuddy?
There's so much fucking AI slop this nextfest
>>558364728HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!
>>558366013Doesnt look like someome competent for the type of job that place is offering, I doubt she can gamedev or even work on the systems for a game storefront company and considering Gabes age this is probably some woman hired for his eye candy despite the obvious old age the makeup can't hide, just look at those arms, she's really old.
This game took 8 years to make.Why?
>>558365659Good good, Should start to add the rpg stat stuff and exp bar into the game.
https://vocaroo.com/1RmaYuBkiwlr
>>558366656Supposedly it was pivoted at some point and cloned Into The Breach. I can believe that. But why did it sell so much? This doesn't exactly get me going "hey this looks fun, Ill buy it!" Is this another one of those games where the dev drew so much attention he did well not because of the game but because of how mich attention he drew to himself?
>>558365764I've been noticing. Every single good game idea I've had is suddenly appearing in quick succession. If I don't make it soon, then what do I have left to offer in making a successful game? If my good ideas are taken and finished before I can then what am I supposed to do now, throw in the towel?
>>558366861Have you played it?
Man I am really fucking sad
>>558367537Does it make sense that you're sad?
>>558367654A little. I've been struggling with newfound feelings of loneliness and a realization that I want friends in my life
are agdgdevs datable?
Anyone else scared of showing their game too early and risking people cloning it and releasing it before yours?
>>558367797Some are. Not me, though.
>>558367862yup
>>558367729Wouldn't worry about it, some things make sense to feel sad about and trying to suppress logical feelings makes it 100x worse
>>558367862Make it unclonable.
>>558357538I almost never go out. I sit on my chair and work very slowly at gamedev. So slowly that Marnix mogs me in the amount of work he does. I mean have you seen those streams where he works on a game? I can't put in 8 hours! Maybe if it's art but that's only because I'm trying to make the thing Im drawing look good for hours>>558367797Yes and no>eric>pogo>that one guy who got a gf from the 4chan dating app>clydeNot dateable>butt ugly grandpa anonKek I had too, his story was memorable.

>>558368358>diapersoh no no no
>>558368473It's true though, I played that incremental hero game and instantly thought of 50 improvements that I could whip up in a few days and push for release in a a month at most
>>558368497woody laugh.mp3
>>558368348I'm a programmer with weird interests so... yeah I guess.
>>558367862Nope. I'm the one doing the cloning.
>>558368618Ah okay, my bad.
>>558368601Then do it (you won't do shit). It's no secret that a successful fantasy-RPG-themed incremental game is releasing every few weeks right now.
what the hell is going on here?
>>558368848I've got my own game to work on, and I don't know or care enough about the genre to understand what people like about it
>>558368601but you won't and almost no one does, not until the original game becomes successful.
>>558368618>roasties have convinced even the best of us that a heterosexual attraction to women at their optimal breeding age is "weird"It's over.
>>558368795It's okay.
>>558368930 The entire stock market is getting raped by Claude and orange man tariff crashout.
>>558368473nah I've had multiple of my idea popping up on steam over the last year or two. no way would I want to show a material form of those ideas and give myself an even bigger headache with cloners seeing the potentiali shant share it and you won't trick me into doing so
>>558368358Troon.
>>558364728>
>WISHLISTS UPDATED
>>558369810HAW HAW!
>>558369579how unique is your idea if it's popping up spontaneously without you even having anything to show?
>>558369810>act like chud>suprised when it backfiressee on 4chan we can actually say ''nigger'', ''faggot'', ''tranny'', etc because this is the only site that doesn't fuck you over for freedom of speech
>>558370285relax, nigger faggot tranny
>>558369990ive had some ideas for years but as a solodev there is only so much i can work on. i wouldnt have faced this issue if all these ideas instantly became full fledged games. most of the time theirs just come a tad too close to what im making or want to make. like the current game im making, have seen 2 games like it, one released last year and another is currently in development. where are they even reaching these ideas? ive noticed when it comes to gamedev i seem to be ahead of the curve on what will sell well alas my talent is not good enough to form them into complete games in time. if only i had a team to make games with
>>558370404my bad, faggot tranny nigger :)see? no ban for two yearsgod bless /vg/ and god bless 4chan
>two yearsi'd kill myself
>>558369810Did the discord still not lockdown to prevent this? If so, just how desperate are you for people that you guys refuse to allow anymore people from entering and booting people with no games?
>>558368358>rotate guy
>>558370285relax, n-word lgbtq entity.
>>558370664those idiots made it public for some reasonor not still fucking retarded
>>558299497Trying to rig up a jump and run animation, but it isn't working.
>>558364728so let me get this straightthe spammer shitposted on the thread so much it made everyone except the lolidevs leave to discordhe then realized that in doing so he made it so that he's stuck in here with just the lolidevsso now his plan is to get people banned from the discord server so they come back to the thread?
>>558369810>not deleting your n word message history after the agdg files droppedchthonic big retard yeah, both mccad and anter did the same thing to prevent this
>>558371158>anime reaction imagenah that anon just hates discord cabal fags, and they're all scrambling to ban the right account
>>558370468unless you think they're reading your mind, your ideas just aren't that unique. as for you being ahead of the curve, who knows when they came up with those ideas. I came up with the idea for my current game back in 2015 but I was working on other things until very recently. so maybe those devs came up with those ideas in the 1990s and not after you did.who knows. I wouldn't worry about it, though. almost every successful dev was showing off their game as soon as they could, often years before it got released.
>>558371310>that anonwhy are you speaking in third person?
>>558371186this pisses me off so much, idiotic behavior
basic common sense
>>558370468What pisses me off lately is this conversation has yet to be had with local devs, the explosion of games means similar games are bound to happen, god forbid once you start getting into AI weights for proper nouns and namest. got talked to by a lawyer and told, through a grapevine to get off my game over similar games, found out in reality they aren't similar at all and they were just retards who thought i was cribbing their shit when in reality i was trying to make sure mine wasn't similareasy way to lose trust in people
>>558371158
>>558371158A few pedotroons haven't posted in a while its just trannadev and the furry pedotroon from /v/ thoughtbeit. From an anti pedotroon pov this is a victory for us.Plus we haven't posted the SURPRISE yet (it's funnier to do it after he releases a game).
>>558371158>>558371793the liqcord are pedophileskys pedophiles

what happened to that genre everyone was talking about for a week
>>558363330Looks nice
>>558367729Friends are too hard to maintain nowadays, long-lasting or not, you're not missing that much. Least you have us :>.
>>558371335Well the thing is, is that these ideas seem to show decent interest or are competently made to the point there is no doubt it will sell modestly at the very least. It's what irritates me a lot. That success could've been mine if only I was a better dev or had a team. It's making all my effort of being a gamedev go down the drain, what was the point of this?>>558371682>this conversation has yet to be had with local devsWhat do you mean by that?>similar games are bound to happenYeah I've feared this. Means I have less time to succeed. At least one success and the worries of similar games subsides sonce now I'm a bigger fish.>inb4 an even bigger fish beats me to market
ACK-rolyte lost
>>558377579if you think 4chan is having issues telling the difference between simultaneous discovery and stealing ideas, it's even worse in local gamedev groups who are still operating like it's 2005
By 2027, AI is going to destroy the entire system. I hope you guys are living it up, because this is the last year that society as we know it will exist. You have 6 months to finish your game.>nooo it was bad in 2023. That means it hasn't improved!>ignore that Physics and CS degrees have higher unemployment than Art History majors, nothing has changed!>stop doomposting, the elites will help out the common man... this time!
>>558373759>picOkay that made me laughSo only 1 language for your game? What if it is super popular in some foreign country to the point the non english speakers want to play it but don't buy cause of the lack of their language?
>>558298347This may be the wrong place to ask, but have any of you tried any of the new "vibe coding" AI agents?I'm considering getting a plugin for UE for using Claude or Codex. Apparently several of them can write Blueprints and rearrange full projects by themselves, but I've heard very few user testimonies.Currently looking at>AI Integration Kit (previously known as NeoAI)
>>558377836>simultaneous discoveryUgh you just reminded me of that. In the past this has occured, iirc the light bulb and the bicycle. Imagine being the guy who lost. Then again maybe both won, its not like they had hundreds of competitors making similar enough products like video games
>>558377878I'm just here to make loli games
>>558378034AI agents are really powerful, don't let AGDG tell you otherwise. They are being pushed super hard at my work right now because they are powerful.
>>558378034My day job is software dev for a medium-sized logistics company, I haven't written a single line-of-code in ~4 months. If you're still writing code, you're wasting your time.
>>558377579>That success could've been mine if only I was a better dev or had a team.Classic flopdev NGMIgger loser mindset. The reality is that you're not good enough. >what was the point of this?There is no point. Gamedev isn't for low-skill losers like you. git gud or git rekt
>>558378275I know you're being sarcastic, but for a literal mongoloid like me, it may be worth it just to get something to move on my screen.
>>558378034They're way too fucking expensive for what they are.UE is moving to Verse coding and data driven stuff for a reason, something that AI can't play with is going to be completely dumpstered. Just dumpster the idea of using blueprints and get claude code to write you C++
>>558378275It's the same at my job but in my experience that's just because 95% of people in software are total shit at programming. The tools aren't actually that good but they feel good if you're bad at your job.
>>558378530>They're way too fucking expensive for what they are.What, 20 bucks a month for access to a codemonkey? Even I think you code monkeys are selling yourself short here>Verse codingWhat now?
>>558378376I'm not, they are very powerful. But if you don't know what they are doing, you'll most likely just get lost in AI shitcode.
>>558378034Im using claude code right now, very useful. But its doing my web dev contract work while I do other shit. Its not as good at gamedev work,
>>558378730Probably, but with blueprints at least the layout will be visual and potentially make some sense
>>558378674I mean the plugins to use them with UE are too fucking expensive. Just use claude code on your C++ and don't fuck with random ai integration plugins.
God bless free particle effects packs in the assets store.
>>558377880i'll worry about 3d modeling katakana or whatever if it's a big hit (it won't be) i have released nothing but gigaflops and this one will be the same. i just enjoy making games.
>>558378832Did you try it with one of the plugins?They can apparently take over your whole project>>558378879The NeoAI one is "just" 103 dollars, one-time payment
>>558379015I haven't used the plugins but I tend to be wary of integrations since they are more likely to mess things up. But claude code is pretty impressive, so I think it could do some good work.
>>558377791real
>xhe thinks the claude 20bux offer is usable for anything besides hobby webdev lol, max plan or ngmi
Progress. drew this guy today. I've planned a set of levels with loosely fantasy themed hobo enemies. I was going for a necromancer/summoner that spawns and buffs other hobos. Though the traffic sign + trash bag combo could work for a dual wielding elite also.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4couALqURQKinda grim that this unc is living paycheck to paycheck making outdated games on steam and begging for wishlists in his late 40s, imagine making games for 20y+ and not being able to retire.
>>558379853he looks like me...
>mfw faggy daggy is all tranime againGood thing us /v/ CHADS have a little thing called progress
>>558380467but all the lolidevs are on /v/ too?
>>558378034The problem with using AI agents for coding is when something goes wrong you have no idea how to fix it. You have no idea how to debug it or diagnose it even because you didn't write the code so you don't know what's happening.
>>558380729Seems like you can often just tell the AI what went wrong, and it'll debug it for you.You should probably have some version control system in place though.
>>558380531are they in /gedg/ as well?
/agdg/ was mostly progress being posted before the undesirables like trannadev, "alice"dev aka squareanon and other third world pedos started posting here, coincidence?
>>558380313He's a career solodev
>>558380860all I know about /g/ is that's the board responsible for all the cheese pizza spam across the whole site
Heartwarming :)
who is sabotaging the yesdev 'cord, why are you doing this?
>>558380925kannadev is the most based yesdev in the general, he works on his game, helps other devs and always keeps the vibes positive
>>558381390kannadev isn't even on the 'cord btw
>the 'gord
>>558381390I honestly think Kanna should add towns and stuff
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aey-1XQIM54yep its gamedev time
>>558381617in due time. they're trying to get the basic gameplay going. though the game could be like a tower defense were you stop the baddies from attacking a town or something.
cant believe kakashi is supposed to be an elite ninja but he got captured in zabuzas water ball justu.
What's the advantage vs disadvantage of adding encryption to the player save files? My game is singleplayer.
>>558381390he shitposts his disgusting fetish 24/7 and barely makes any progress, how many years without even basic gameplay? maybe less time shitposting and more devving would help with that, pedotroon
>>558382186kakashi is a massive jobber but what's that got to do with gamedev
>>558382187advantage: mu. disadvantage: more difficult for people to hack save files.
I wish there was something like roblox but not tied to that platform. Like how you get a good camera, character movement, artstyle, and lighting out the box and can make adjustments as needed

>>558383023lolis are boring
>>558383121pretty quick reply for lolis being boring
In my honest opinion it's okay if lolidevs get bullied because they are obnoxious in general and invite that kind of nastiness, objectively speaking.
>>558382740what does your intuition tell you?
>>558383303posting "kys" is barely bullying, could do way more if the problem was as serious as some anons say.
>>558383303If you think anonymous posts from little zoomer soiboys half my size and half my testosterone level can affect me in any way, you're sorely mistaken.

I was able to get my leona animated in raylib.:D
>>558380171It is why I must make it. I don't want to get left behind like the anons who had a chance 10 years ago. I've got limited time to make it rather than ending 2 or 3 decades devving with 0 success. That would be a crushing reality.

>>558368358hey honey. whats ur game about
I want some help developing the RPG system. Any tips would be appreciated. I've read different tabletop systems for some inspiration. >>558329415I think you should be more worried about posting progress and discussing game design than the fact that I use a tripcode. I've shared some progress in my past posts. Now you share some with me :D.
>>558338496>Do you want the real answer or the fake answer?>proceeds to give the wrong answerThat dev obviously just likes drawing anime girls anon. What kind of marketability does a non-pornographic futa game have? It's also has kaizo-tier platforming so no one besides the dev is going to get passed more than 2 levels.

>>558377878please trust me when i say AIs won't be replacing gamedevs any time soon. they are, however, actively replacing scriptkiddies, which coincidentally are what most CS degree holders amount to. nothing of value has been lost.
>Absentmindedly forget that there doesn't have to be a keyframe every frame because I'm not doing stop motionYeesh
>>558371158its fygoon, all of it yes really he wont ever admit that hes worse than the lolidevs thougheverbeit
>>558397870>please trust me when i say AIs won't be replacing gamedevs any time soon. they are, however, actively replacing scriptkiddies, which coincidentally are what most CS degree holders amount to. nothing of value has been lost.
>>558397870how do I tell if I am a scriptkiddie?
>>558398279i member when scriptkiddie just meant couldn't code at all, does not seem relevant now with AI just doing all the coding, i think the only thing you need going forward is to be able to think and plan, not program only, there's a reason programmers didn't suddenly become rich before AI
>>558298347RPG Maker is the dumbest piece of shit software I’ve ever used. 2026 and you still need to manually code in where buttons are on menus. I took a VB class in 2008 and I remember being able to drag and drop items into a window to create a GUI even back then. If you want to do anything fun then you need to write a plugin. Beginner friendly my ass. Fuck RPG Maker
>>558398426>Getting filtered by RPG makerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rU5WUrbMeos
Got filtered by 3d camera award
>>558398587ask claude to make you one or fix your own chopped one
>>558392171What engine is this even
>>558398658>What engine is this even
>>558398548I shouldn’t need to learn how to be a software developer to make a game. I should just be able to write the dialogue import my assets into the editor. RPG Maker is not as beginner friendly as you think
>>558374378The Zoomer × Crypto song. Alright this song was bussin, lemme see the game it is to be attached with
>>558398880you know what you must do anon
>>558398880>I shouldn’t need to learn how to be a software developer to make a software product
>>558399094jej but fuck you bochitard
>>558398862You got your jab in now tell me what you're using lmao
>>558398426Kek i do find it funny how it seems to have this air of being beginner friendly. At least they've got a strong community so getting support should be easy. Even Godot outpaces Unity now. I've found tutorials for stuff I want except it's not for Unity. GameMaker probably has a similar problem but worse seeing as the majority of tutorials are probably by that one guy who trooned out.
>>558377878>ignore that Physics and CS degrees have higher unemployment than Art History majors, nothing has changed!Its not because of AI its because of outsourcing and H1Bs. Microsoft a few months ago laid off 9,000 people then requested 14,100 more H1B visas.
Any 30+ devs here?
Reeeee been working on this piece of art on and off throughout the day and I still can't get it right. It's a literal UI icon.>design 1 feels too sparse>design 2 feels too clutteredIt's literally one piece of art added on to remove the sparse effect but somehow it just makes it cluttetered AIEEEEEEE!!!!
>>5583995901 year until I become an archmage
>>558399728>No sexdamn
>>558399590Yep, Right here. I'm making a game similar to a 3D Dwarf Fortress, but with way more to it.
>>558399281Tutorials are irrelevant in the age of AI, you can break down concepts into small chunks and ask AI how to do it.
>>558398279it can be hard to evaluate about yourself. if you understand why>imul rax, 0>xor rax, rax>add rax, rbx>add rbx, rcxin isolation is faster than>imul rax, 0>add rax, rbx>add rbx, rcxthen you may have a shot at not being a scriptkiddie
>>558399864t.
is vec3 + quat = mat4?
>>558400058That's you, a jeet who cannot afford frontier models and has to lookup youtube tutorials like it's 2009, I cachinnate at your poorness, poorjeet.
>>558399590Yes, me. I finally got a remote job which means I finally got a 24/7 schedule. I smoke weed and drink beer whenever I want and as long as my deliverables are in by a certain time, and I make two meetings a week, I'm set. Been using the extra time to really learn some game dev shit.
CyberKomodo is back on Twitter.PersonaSixFP, it's time for you to ride out again and enlighten the people.
>>558400263I can download for free the same model you pay $200/month for. Who is the real sucker here? You pay $200/month for something <$1000 hardware can handle.
>>558400323>I finally got a remote jobHow'd you land that, you need any qualifications? What is it?
>>558400625>I can download for free the same model you pay $200/month for.lol you're fucking retarded you luddie tranny freak
>>558400625>I can download for free the same model you pay $200/month for. Who is the real sucker here? You pay $200/month for something <$1000 hardware can handle.
>>558400074No.
>>558400686I know it sounds like bs: my qualifications are all experience, no school @34, just shit jobs that lead to good jobs. I am a systems architect for a contracting group who needed someone to build out a lab so they can test things. The up front cognitive load was high, but now as SME, essentially on retainer while things run, I just start smoking weed at 9 am. The background I have is heavy in cyber security, pen testing, and programming.
>>558400625this just confirms faggots seething about AI are not even devs or even attempted to dev
>>558401957This just confirms I fuck your mom and your sister
