Why aren't there any Dave the Diver-likes? I really enjoyed that game and so did many people.
>>566747202Its another indie psyop game
>>566747202i am making one right now
I won bigly.

>>566746427did he make this design for Nortubel or Hirdrih?

When I make it with my game, I'm going to buy $40 flavored sparkling water.
>>566748942abstraction of lime lmao
is 24/25 too late to START doing game dev?
>>566748724eh, just enough of a success to keep going on the trend-chasing, slop treadmill. no thanks. they lucked into some appeal (by ripping off Execute) and very mildly capitalized on it, especially when you consider it is split between 2-3 people. I doubt their next venture will be as fruitful (just ask Branno!)
>>566749278Use any excuse to nodev. You will fit right in.
>>566749278holy shit, no
>>566749278If you managed to make it to 24 without having acquired any gamedev adjacent skill like art or programming to a reasonable level, then yeah, it's over for you.
>>566748584proof??
Should I take the Super Mario Galaxy 2 Pill?Super Mario Galaxy 2 is a game I loathe. I despise it. It is the definition of shovelware. Of slop. So many of the levels are basic modifications of old levels, such as:>The same level as before but you now have 30 seconds instead of 60>The same level as before but one hit and you're dead>The same level as before but enemies moves twice as quicklyYet this game got crazy scores. Some people even call it the best game on the Wii. A game that has maybe 33% the amount of original content as its predecessor.If I followed in its footsteps and farted out levels by the dozens, making small modifications such as time limits and enemy counts, I could quadruple the content of my game with minimal effort.Should I take the Super Mario Galaxy 2 Pill?
>>566749278too late to go work in a studio. but you can do anything else.
>>566749643nice bait
>>566749278some what. being a gamedev requires the hidden talent of having semi well off parents and owning a pc since you were like 2

>>566749643nice profound mental retardation
>>566749643yes. if you can even make 1 level as fun as a mario galaxy 2 level.
>>566749643this is a sunshine boardthe best mario gameall other marios are fake and gaygalaxy is some baby gay shit about baby stars and sunshine is about making bitches WETnow run along little boy before i chuck you
Be honest, most people don't go to itch.io or steam to randomly search for random indies to install (your game).So what advantage does steam and itch.io and DLSite provide over having your own website and then doing your own social media marketing as funnels for your own website?
>>566749278You're never too late to finish
>>566750501steam has people with moneyhard concept to grasp old top
>>566750501you're right, you should do just that!
>>566749856Depends.Are we talking more fun than an original level, or a redux/slop level?
>>566750501Almost everyone I know is not most people so there are still a few. All they do is buy indie visual novels and gamba slop
>>566750501Most people who have money to spend on video game do go to those sites to search for games to buy. You're broke and brown and don't play any video games, retard.
>>566750701what if I don't care about making money?What about that mr. student of the semite school of wanting money with funny nose?
>>566750501nothing. I'm making my own site to host my games. I will add links my dev buddies sites too if they have them

>>566750701the spend per user ratio on Steam is actually pretty shit, you're thinking of the Apple app store

>it works
>>566751841if your goal is money than yes the Apple store has both a higher concentration of whales AND half the store cut of steam, it's a no brainer.
>>566749278If you wanna start dev to be the next stardew valley million sales success, it's better for you to move on.If you wanna fuck around and make stuff because you like video games you could try it, most engines are free with tons of resources for you to learn.If you wanna try it as a side hustle I won't suggest it, because your first release will be years from when you start. if you don't give up midway.If you wanna start and become a professional to be hired into the industry, I totally suggest you to reconsider. The industry it's imploding right nowAbove all, consider that dev is incredibly hard, it has tons of sides of it you won't like that need to be done; first of them it's coding. If you think you can dev without learning how to code a little you are delusional.
>>566751307you can use ads if you self host.

Should RPG inventories have a size/weight limit or should it be limitless? Is it even fun having to stop what your doing to sell a load of stuff?
>>566752680Maybe you should learn to listen to that pit in your chest.
>>566752937Why?
>>566751334>>566751548And you still won't generate porn? Anon, you're doing this thread a disservice. Please generate porn of Betz's hot girls and please make them have a threesome with a handsome Chad (like myself).
>>566752880make it limitless and don't tell the player that their inventory weight is penalizing their speed stat
>>566752880It's not really fun if it's optimal to pick up every useless object, either. I think there should be a limit but I never enjoyed the Diablo thing where items have different sizes and you have to shuffle them around to fit slightly more.
Alright. Any of you guys work with Unreal? I'm gathering a list of learning resources to start with it, and decided ask here too for recommemdations.>inb4 dont start Unreal.Not an option, I'm afraid.
>>566752880Yes. Contrary to nodev ideaguy beliefs, inventory management is a very fun mechanic, as it adds another layer of complexity and decision making.
My game will never be popular enough to garner a green reddit schizo hate following who will try to ruin my life everyday so what's the point
>>566752880Should my movie have a jumpscare? Should my movie have a sex scene?This is what you're asking. This is a game design question YOU should answer based on what kind of experience you want to deliver with your game.
>>566753031You know why.
>>566753212>>inb4 dont start Unreal.I know nothing about Unreal but I just want to say I hate when people do advice that contributes nothing like that.>HAVE YOU TRIED NOT BEING SAD?
>>566753212>first game is a 3d gameThat's a mistake. The % of you giving up is multiplied by 100>but I only wanna make this 3d gameAnimations and assets are a nightmare for it. you can consider it only if you are or you have a 3d art guy with you.Also, the timeline for your game will be tenfold of a 2d game. Since you don't even know if you like dev, there is no pressure, try d. But you are in for a world of pain
>>566753483What makes you think I canāt do it?
>>566753212>I really wanna climb mount everest for my first climbGL
>>566752751I think is a better deal to be self reliant on your bussiness rather than being fucked to generate profits and views to another company that only cares about their own shit and don't care to even promote your shit.It's like trying to make your own small mom and pop store in the street versus being inside the 15th floor of a mall.
>>566753912no self reliant is a scam in the digital age buddylets say giganigga generates 100$ in a year from adswell what ads? you know adsense is ran by google right? the only way to do your self reliance master plan would be to personally ship games via mail in money order
>>566753212why don't you ask gippity? or are you trying to engage in social interaction or something? i dont get it
>>566753706Because you're a human bean with a limited lifespan. If you had a few thousand years, maybe you could eventually make it.
>>566754317>adsense>google>Can only consider alphabet globohomo shit for his bussiness
>>566754317>personally ship games via mail in money order>he has to rely on the postal service>he has to rely on the banking system to cash money orders
>making game in godot>quite far along>just now learning how simple it is to unpack the game into basically a fully working project>also learning about how there are hordes of indians who will steal games like this, add in ads and mtx and put them on google play until they get caughtwhy fucking bother? should i move back to un*ty?
>>566754432Well, good thing Iām not even doing something that long.I quite literally just wanna take a year to make a single really good one level demo and then feel satisfied with myself
>>566754707Assuming you haven't given up yet, you'll still be saying the same thing 5 years from now.
>>566754803What makes you think itād take that long to make a single level
>>566754532>>566754603its overjust mint your own ca3 bitcoin and pay yourself or something
>>566754682>he doesn't know how easy it is to unpack and rebuild a poonity game too
>>566753705>>566753883I've been learning 2D Unity for the last few months, but an opportunity for participating in an interesting project appeared to me, and the only other programmer is an Unrealfag. They asked if I knew Unreal, and I said I had an theoretical knowledge of Unreal.Jokes aside, I said no but I could learn. And they said ok. So now I dont want to be neither a quiter nor a do-nothing-dick
>>566754532>>566754603whats the other options?
>>566755089Accept the fact that you live in a society.

>>566755254finally makes sense why he was looking over his shoulder so much
>>566755212Anon what can I do
>>566755089Visit someone's home and trade your game for material goods such as leather, furs, food, salt or trinkets.

>>566755068If you are part of a team and you are only coding, it's a whole different story. You can totally do that.Just remember to think twice and don't schizo out on your team when everything will fall apart. Do your part and lmao in private in how art/music guys don't do shit and burnout
>>566755564You need an actual script to make your comics be goodWhen you used a shitpost for your script and it was miles better
>>566755762>Do your part and lmao in private in how art/music guys don't do shit and burnoutJokes on you. Ive been already 2 times through this, and Im doing my third tour right now
>>566755762NTA but I wish I had a team so I didnāt have to do everything myself
>>566754921A fully polished vertical slice requires 50%+ of the total work in many games, yours included. Remember that Genokids is just one act and it took them well over half a decade to get there.
>>566756081Idk man, it seems like most of the work is going to be programming
>>566756195Polish is a bottomless pit, and you've barely even started.
>>566755945Thanks for the feedback. I will inform our team.
>>566756362Who cares about that when programming the damn thing is going to be more important

>>566758336inzoi is like 40$ lol
>>566758626Yes, the Crashsune's tutorial series should be enough to understand the basics of making MML style models.
>>566758404>>566758520The Sims-like market really does not have too many options.>>566759118Inzoi has no sovl. The Sims wasn't just about life sim. It was about whimsical scenarios. It was a deeply paranormal game. My game emphasizes that.

>>566760765>Anyone using Claude max? I use free like a peasant and then complain about hitting the limit all the time while deadlines grow near.
>>566760765No, that stuff got in my way and the output was mid tier at best. Turns out it doesn't really help that much if you already know what you're doing.
>>566761361I switched engines, so, there's so much I don't know
Just spent the last week trying to get Terrain3D to import my splatmap blending properly only to find out Terrain3D doesn't support splatmap blending.
>>566760765My Pro limits have kept getting continually slashed for absolutely no reason every week. This shit feels like I'm back on Free tier. Fuck claude. I moved to codex.
>>566761684what engine are you on now, what kind of game are you trying to make, what knowledge gaps do you rely on the model to make up for?
>>566761851i believe claude already has a profile on most people and give each person a custom limit based on what they do
>>566761792don't forget it also doesn't support having a base diffuse/modulation texture applied to the whole terrain (a feature that been used in the industry for oh i dont know 25 FUCKING YEARS)

>>566759142If I ever had to make an MML-type game, I'd set it in a perpetually rainy world for atmosphere. It's like a hybrid of Zelda and Animal Crossing, where characters have their own schedules and personal problems that emerge dynamically.It's not about saving the world, it's about living in it.

>>566763536cant unity export to html5
are these colors eye rape or nah
>>566763709Sure but working with Claude in a single file, I got the whole game done in 2 weeks and it runs on a potato, now it's time for polish. Was the perfect environment for it until Claude clamped down recently
>>566764143If you have to ask
>>566764213this is the toned down version but it lacks aura
>>566764143Looks like a nightmare land. Why so dark?
>>566751162Is it worth being involved in this? I could put together a trailer in a week or so but I want to know if it's worth the effort.
>>566764143>>566764356I had to double take comparing these because the eye rape version is actually nicer to look at than the toned down version
Tried to crank up the numbers a lot to see if it would make the game more interesting. Its wayyy too god damn slow,i'll try speeding up walking animaitons to see if it makes a difference if not ill abandon itIf I could copy the "group" movement that baldurs gate 3 does That would be the best.
>>566764431trying to tap into 90s global village coffeehouse vibes.>>566764663yeah for sure. i'm not sure if you can keep the warmth without it being eye rape. if i have to get rid of the warmth then its just gonna be eye rape

I need some advice. I keep posting about my game on forums but it's getting very few wishlists. Should I keep posting about it or give up and make something else?Yes, I tried adding two cute girls as mascots, one kinda corn-fed-wholesome the other a goth freak and I'm still getting very few vie- I mean wishlists.What should I do?

>>566768882i look like this
so is this thread officially another diffusion general? seems like everyone left and all that remains is some guy that needs to prove to himself that he's proving something to somebody else.
it's all my fault the thread died. before i started posting here and deving again everyone was happy (rotate)
>>566772356post gaem
>>566772356You can thank the V3 guy for spamming his stupid comics here that's driving everybody away but he thinks it's going to somehow help his shitty shillcase that gets maybe five games and 100 views
there is no reason to a dramatic retard 4chan is just dying in general
>>566773176exactly, do not dramatic benchod
the schizos drive away everyone on every corner of 4chan
>>566772962help me understand, is this for some kind of game showcase/jam around AI-created games or is it some axe to grind with a non-existent adversary?
>>566772356The thread is to trap schizos and nodevs. The true /agdg/ is secret IRL meetups during Purim.
Implemented hard knockdowns to get a feel on how this would play if I bring it a bit closer to a beat em up.
>>566773523cool art
>>566773427The latter. Betz seethes that nobody wants to join His expo so he spends his days shitting up the threads with off topic bullshit like the comics to drive people away in spite.
>>566773523animations looks great and I like the character design. How are you going to handle the knockdown+overhang though? that was the only thing that appeared a little jarring
>>566773457this i didnt start winning until i linked up with jews
>>566749278it's always too late
I wish I could do it
>>566767516looks a bit better then before but less vibrant colors for the ground will be better I guess
>>566773756it is what it is. Any sort of snapping will mess with the gameplay and also look a bit weird too so the only solution would be changing the sprites, which won't happen.
>>566775082the more I look at it, the more I think it looks fine even with the overhang. I realize what is actually tripping me up is the small orange/brown outline on the foreground that almost makes it look like you're seeing a sliver of the parallax background under the sprites. Think that's more of a me issue than anything else.
>>566774502kinda works
>>566769580AAAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHHA
>>566769580as someone who can easily 3d model if I have references I don't understand why people are still sleeping on llms for this
It took me two months to get water splash effects working. By this rate I'll be finished in...800 years.
>>566776754grim
>>566776754Really?
>>566775380Adding some doodads to the foreground and some background tiles should make it feel a lot better. And video compression doesn't help.
>>566777145>Adding some doodadsactual yesdev esoteric knowledge
>>566777393nigga do you ever stop? like what's the point of your spam?
>>566777504you ludlost
>>566777504why does it bother you so much
>>566777565>>566777657you do realize nobody reads your wasted tokens? are you genuinely retarded? are you autistic? both?
>>566777779
>>566777779brother this thread (and this site) is a toiletlighten up a bit
>>566777565I use AI and all your comics are essentially saying the same thing
>>566778003
If I can just solve this one issue, I can move on
this ai is pretty good for concept art lmao
>>566777504>>566777779One other platforms, content is "liked" or "disliked', and this influences it's placement or ranking on the site, with "liked" content being ushered toward the top for visibility.4chan is different. Merely engaging with a post bumps it. This is why rage-baiting and sliding are so effective here.Though counterintuitive, the most effective course of action to deal with content you don't like is to simply not engage with it. You've already identified it as something not worth your continued engagement. Perhaps acknowledge this to yourself and simply move on with your life, understanding that the slop has no bearing on your success, and that it is a choice to engage (and thus promote) it.
>>566764746Abandoned it, really dumb idea. Too many characters means the AI has to be dumbed down to keep the speed up.I tried a simultaneous action thing and it was okay but there was lag going on. Honestly I'd be better off making a real time system like League tft if I want that many enemies.So ill keep it down to roughly six-ten enemies/allies max.Its put a real hole in my summoner class plans though.I think after this if this version does not get much attention, ill probably do one more tactics game attempt then look for another genre.Maybe i'll go for psx horror slop next.
>>566778217shutup slopper, i'll keep shit talking your garbage
>>566778217okay daddy
im gonna steal a mechanic from a game that came out in 2025. sorry but if i can easily steal it, it does not belong to you.the only real question is do i spend 8$ or do i just go off the trailer
>>566778231>Too many characters means the AI has to be dumbed down to keep the speed up.How were you implementing the AI?I was using GOAP with A* pathfinding on all my AI entities for a while, and it didn't scale well. I switched over to a completely Utility based AI using a shared Dijkstra heatmap and now things are extremely fast.Might be something worth considering depending on what the behavior is that you need.
>>566777393>>566777504>>566778217See >>566772962
>>566778472blud really revealed hes a broke nigga to the whole room
whew, after a hard day NEETing there's nothing like a hot cup of choccy and a wank before bed
>>566778403I don't use AI as coding never got in my way. Isn't it funny that AI users uses specs because they make the model more effective? Perhaps we'll discover that some kind of formal language spec with dedicated keywords is the most effective. wouldn't that be wild?
>mom boughted pizza
>>566778629i run the risk of the game not playing like how i want it to be
>>566778496Its kind of a utility based system, I score the actions of all the units then pick the best one >shared dijkstra heatmapthats new, ill have to read into that
>>566778804the problem I was running into with A* is that each entity has to find it's own path to it's target. so it's a point-to-point with overhead scaling per entity.By using a dijkstra "heatmap" emitted by a target, all entities can read this common heatmap and decide how to move. Since many entities are sharing a common context, this approach is ideal for "swarm" behavior. Depending on how you implement things, these heatmaps can have a concept of terrain/danger/cost. They're useful for steering contexts as well. You can overlap as well for things like "move here but avoid the lava" type situations. Here's a nice old article about them from the guy that made Brogue:https://www.roguebasin.com/index.php/The_Incredible_Power_of_Dijkstra_Maps
some work on damage effects, prob gonna add some particles with collision for armor pieces flaking off. Was initially planning to use pom decals but stencil cutouts ended up working out nicer.
Working on sound effects is sooooo boring.
>>566779239fucking sovl
>>566776895>>566777085This is what took me so long. Please don't laugh.>recorded a bunch of fluid sims>rendered them out to .jpgs>turned them into sprite sheets >made a flipbook shader to play through the sprite sheets>made randomizing logic to randomly give every splash a different sprite sheet and offset >made quad billboards to act as the splashes >made the water shader When I started solo dev three years ago I coulda done this in two days but I'm so fucking old and slow now. I want to cry.
>>566748724Now pay corporate tax, then split what's left among 4 people and pay personal tax and then pay rent and poof it's all gone.

Where's Fygoon at? He was unironically more tolerable than this.
good morning sirs
>>566782182why did you make this
>>566782420Someone had to!
>>566782272how much would you charge to code my game?
>>566782182you'd need to pay me about $10 to try it
>>5667825411 lakh
>>566782471no they didntanyways try making it more custom it has too much rpgmaker assets
a game where you tickle your little sister
>>566782709kita...
a game where bocchi and kita kiss...
>>566750501biggest benefit of marketplaces like steam and itch is they handle bullshit like chargebacks and refunds for you. Also people are less likely to want to put their credit card info into some rando's website. See the "no steam no buy" vintage story discourse
>>566778710>mom calls me from the store and tells me 16$ is too much for 5 lbs of nuggies for me and i'm on my own
>>566779239How did you do it this fast
>>566784310Why do you keep asking thisOnce you learn how to code shit then you just do it
>>566784310>How did you do it this fast

The fact that shit as creative as Nitro Gen Omega gets shafted is sad
>>566784872>The fact that shit as creative as Nitro Gen Omega gets shafted is sad
>>566784458Then how did you do it?

Hey guys, it's been awhile.I need some people to playtest for me.Where's a good place I can upload the build for you guys to download?

>>566785273>finallybroski anyone who knows their shit already made their own that's a 100 times better, me included
>>566785386is this actually from a game?
>>566786503>is this actually from a game?
>>566786386It can do all this? I simply don't believe you. Post proof.
>>566785386We don't want DAZ slop
>>566779102Wow this is far faster, the movement has a zombie like swarm nature. Perhaps if I reskin the game into you are "controlling" the undead, it would be better.I liked the idea of synchronus actions so ill attempt it again, i think.
Been working on this since the pandemic, finally got a UI up and running with some help from Claude. What do you guys think? 15 playable companies, 1945-1991 timeline, hundreds of real-world designs and USN/USAF/NASA competitions.

polycount is solved issue yeah? should be no problem having 50k+ for each character I bet even cheap gfx cards can handle this now
is steam workshop worth it to support?

>>566785273This is effectively the end of the AI disclosure on steam as a meaningful thing. I hope anons have made peace with that.
>>566765121ZAMN!!!
hmm
>>566789981that's even more reason. All he has to be proud of is the place where he was born, there's nothing else. Many such cases.
>>566765121what is it with anime fags and unrealistically sized cocks? are they cucks?
>>566790845Wrong mindset, man should draw the OCs of unreleased indies and then those devs will join the expo.

>GDScript keeps adding C# featuresthey need to just get rid of it at this point. GDScript is retarded. It's literally good for nothing. Godot keeps trying to be this retard-friendly engine but anyone who uses it heabily is almost guaranteed to be an autistic tinker tranny who probably just uses C# anyway. it's not like forcing devs to use C# was ever a problem for Unity and retards can use GML if they want babby's first programming language.

>>566749718what? why? do studios not hire 35 year old chuds?
>>566793070not in the big '26
>>566793070why would they hire a burnt out loser?
>>566793225but not much different than a 22 year old new grad, right? Assuming the 35 year old has a portfolio of steam games he has released that are competent with good timelines
>>566793380if he has a good portfolio why would he work for someone else
>>566793380>but not much different than a 22 year old new gradshould we tell him?
>>566793431because his wages dont justify going indie vs working for a company.>>566793474tell me what....do 22 year old new grads even get jobs these days in gamedev? markets cooked for everyone no
>>566793838I mean at the rate we are going jobs won't even be a thing by 2030
>>566793980thats not a good thing. theyre not going to give a shit about the people that need a wage. they'll wait for it to get really bad before they even think about UBI
nervous system regulation seems a better concept to me than "happiness" or "fun".people will flock to whatever helps them regulate their nervous system. if you think about it like that, then there's no more need to care about what "fun" means. you just need to understand what problems people have and how your product can help with that psychological problem.simple example: anger -> shooters
>>566794179what about some European countries with really good welfare systems?
>>566794205Yeh
It kinda sucks that this is literally the only genre I could tell a story like this in
>>566794274yea im an americuck. we're fucked... and no im not a radical leftist.Anyway, back to gamedev
>The game is fun. If its not fun, then what's wrong with you?Reggie Feels-a-me
>>566788326You can always mix and match depending on the context. More than one heatmap can be applied, and they can be summed. I still use A* for things like drawing paths on the screen and what not. Once your utility AI has more considerations than just interest/danger it'll really start to show up in behavior

a game where you are a neet with social anxiety and over the day people knock on your door and you have to talk to them.everytime they ask you if you have a job, you get a nervous breakdown.sometimes also the phone rings and you have to talk to relatives asking you if you already have a girlfriend.
>>566795238I kneel
I fixed a problem but I still don't feel content. Yayyyyyy
>>566795238not bad. you can do a lot with this no meme
a game where enemies can't kill you but they make a lot of annoying noise and the whole motivation to kill them is that they stop being annoying.
