video game

The graphics were good but the game was not.

I'm porting my vulkan game down to gles 3.0 because I wanted it to run on the web, and the game loads noticeably faster on gles compared to the vulkan renderer. I do think opengl is a crappy api with a lot of quirks, not to mention 3.0 es is quite a limited version of opengl, but I think I'll scrap the vulkan renderer. I learned to like vulkan, but I don't have the time to maintain two renderers.

stop killing games has destroyed my business model

NTA, but unless you are building something in 3D, 50k is usually overkill.
If you are making a platformer engine, 10k should be more than enough
If you are making a visual novel engine, 5k is too much and means you overcomplicated something

I agree I hate it compared to GLSL, they really backdoored rust syntax into this standard they're forcing everyone to use.

>raytracing
no portable way to do this without compute only solutions

Most of the shit you want isn't there because Metal is annoying and doesn't support it, so it ends up being not portable.

>not being fit for firefox
true but webgl1 and 2 also runs like shit on Firefox

He should use WebGPU because WebGL2 doesn't support compute shaders, and is more advanced and capable than WebGL1/2, it will be supported for longer. The sane choice is to avoid using webshit at all, does your game really need to run in a browser?

>>109104566
>hi actual graphics engineer here
>use vulkan if you need this
>he should use webgpu
So your excuse to shill WebGPU is what exactly?

"If you need D3D10/11 features, you should just use vulkan"? Not counting for stupid bind groups, Windows 7s D3D11 usermode proxy layer is less restrictive than the piece of trash you're shilling for. You can in fact do async upload and manage multiple threaded device contexts ever since Windows Vista. You can in fact have a completely unscuffed swapchain ever since Windows Vista.

So to reiterate, for you mr "actual graphics sarrrgenier", why exactly should anybody be forced to put up with Vulkan or settle with webshit over the minimum viable graphics API cira 2007; why are you shilling this?

>>109104653
>So your excuse to shill WebGPU is what exactly?
If you HAVE TO target Chrome.exe and can accept shit performance on Firefofx.exe then use WebGPU as that's the maintainable path forward on that platform.

> If you need D3D10/11 features, you should just use vulkan
If you need a specific subset of API graphics features that WebGPU does not provide and you don't need support for web browsers is what I said don't put words in my mouth thanks.

>why should anyone be forced to put up with Vulkan
Because it's the only low-level cross-platform rendering API that will actually give you all the advanced features you need. I am not "shilling WebGPU" I am giving the correct advice that WebGPU is the path forward if you have to develop for a web browser.

If you only give a shit about Windows desktop platforms then use D3D12 I guess. I don't have experience with it, only Vulkan / OpenGL / WebGL / WebGPU / a little bit of Metal.

>>109104676
I like how we went from

Lol. Lmao even. See when I said it's always pozilla trannies and washington state-based Google employed soilins trying to enshitify the web with broken specs, to shill for their current meme tech of the day, to subvert * third-party * HLSL/DX developments, and to internally subvert the collective attention in favor of their own stable directx, app store, and metal based solutions, ...? Yeah, you're doing a good job at proving my point, even if you don't qualify as one of these people.

You came in here expecting to shill webgpu, called yourself an "actual graphics engineer", you couldn't defend your position, you ousted yourself as a macfag webshitter who refuses to touch windows, and now are crying "buzzwords" - not the original partial list of why webgpu isn't viable, mind you, but rather to the paraphrasing your 4 pragraphs of cope about webbrowsers and "maintainable paths".

Your average WebGPU shill everybody

Regardless of it being only relevant for web or not, WebGPU is a terrible name as most people who could actually write a renderer will see "web" and think of webshitter jeets.

>>109102274
>but I don't have the time to maintain two renderers.
don't compromise your desktop version for the web version.
the web version will always suck, unless you full commit (html UI...) which will make debugging not fun, because native tools are much better than wasm tools (asan).
The main reason the web version sucks is latency is noticeable if your monitor only refreshes at 60hz (it's composition latency, at 300fps it's not noticable). Also there is a lot of weird jank between the browsers. For example, for me, disabling vsync during a stress test will make my game freeze / stutter.
There is the cross origin issue if you are not self-hosting your website (you cannot use "normal threads" AKA shared memory or high precision timers).
The web version should just be a demo that gets people to get their foot into the door.
Vulkan is not usable directly unless you abstract it (this also applies to opengl a bit), once it's already abstract, you might as well support webgpu since it's closer to vulkan than it is to opengl (at least in terms of the direction of y, and shader differences), and you can keep the shader the same between the API's using slang.
Also webgpu has compute shaders, so you have access to atomics, unlike webgl, which are useful if you want to implement OIT algorithms or more.
And yes you are doing something wrong if your vulkan implementation is slower than opengl, and opengl has a reputation for not running the same FPS between different GPU brands (AKA the "fat driver" issue). You can use Angle to minimize the "fat driver" factor, since you are essentially running dx11/vulkan, and I have personally noticed that on my nvidia GPU, Angle (GL es) running on vulkan has a lower input to photon latency than native opengl using Intel PresentMon.
And if you open Renderdoc / Nvidia Nsight to profile / debug you will be reading the vulkan internals, not opengl, and it's on a separate thread managed by Angle (also the tools are just better for vulkan).

You know, if some of you worked together instead of all developing your own little autistic quasi game engine you could maybe make an engine that could power a real game worth playing and make some money out of it. Ever thought of that?

Another reason for Lua is that it has upvalues which I don't think JavaScript has.
When I have scriptable events I can make the code executed there have a custom environments which allows me to use very short names for most functions without it colliding with the wider codebase

>>109110130
what a retarded comment to make and be wrong about just as an excuse to confirm your own bias to a bunch of people you don't know

I've been trying to get into game development since the Heartbeast tutorials on GM Studio over a decade ago and I've been dropping it and picking it back up ever since the first Godot shilling upto the current version.

My problem is, why do I never retain the information I watch or read from tutorials? If I encounter a problem and the video doesn't have it I just drop the entire thing and start a new one years later.

>>109110467
Well if I am wrong, then go ahead and tell us how you can achieve the same with javascript.
As far as I know, code evaluated with eval() has access to the same environment as the function that calls eval. Whereas with lua you can call load() with a custom environment parameter.

>>109110469
Use AI, it's gotten hella good lately. You don't really need to retain information since you can just ask it any details.

Honestly fuck tutorials. Just come up with your own game idea and just fucking start making it. The only tutorial you need is an event bus imho. Like learn how that works and then you can just fire off and listen for events everywhere and you're pretty much golden.

NEXT, REGARDING AI SHIT:
If you goal is to actually learn AI is actually way better than fucking stack overflow or google directing you to watch 5 hour long videos. This is what you do: you start making your game and if you hit a wall just have one big chat where you ask all your dumb ass questions. "Why isn't my collision node working? [BEEP YOU NEED TO ADD A COLLISION SHAPE] Why does my player fall through the level? [BEEP YOU NEED TO TURN COLLISION ON YOUR CSG CUBES ON.] Why isn't my player falling? [BEEP YOU NEED TO MANUALLY ADD GRAVITY TO THE VELOCITY] The tough part is you have to know enough to know how to get started, but once you generally know how to get started AI can walk you through all the hard parts. Even fucking blender I always forget like why aren't edge loop tools or basic human armatures on? [BEEP YOU PROBABLY DIDNT ENABLE TO ADDON YOU FUCK TARD] Anyway ya fuck tutorials its like 10 hours of garbage for the 20 actually essential things you need to learn. You don't actually NEED to memorize anything. The biggest hurtle is learning and remembering IF you can do a thing and then finding out HOW.

I haven't used SDL since 1.2, is the API particularly difficult? You'll still have to deal with the satellite libs for sound etc. right?
I'm deciding between SDL and SFML. I remember SFML having a nicer API for C++ but I think SDL3 is more compatible possibly.

>>109110495
I'm not gonna play this stupid game where you make a claim, it's wrong, then immediately pivot to another unrelated claim so I have to run around and translate lua to javascript endlessly until I give up and you can feel like you won.

>>109111483
SDL3 handles sound on its own. You'll only need another library for like, midi or something.

>>109111550
The only mistake I made is calling it upvalues instead of environments, but it should be clear from the context what I was referring to.
The broader point stays the same. In Lua, I can pass an environment with the set_var function to load() and that chunk of loaded code can use the function, but the broader codebase cannot with that name.
In javascript as far as I know you cannot do that since eval doesn't take an env parameter like lua's load function.
Meanwhile, you said that my reasoning is "completely wrong", but didn't provide a counter example.

>is the API particularly difficult?
It's just a noticeably lower level of abstraction than Raylib. Raylib basically gives you great high-level gamedev primitives like setting up a camera, sound/music, drawing shapes with textures, and handling input. SDL gives you lower-level control but also requires more steps. You have to explicitly poll events, explicitly get the keyboard state, define a renderer and issue separate commands to set colors and shapes.

Whether the extra SDL commands amount to an unnecessary cognitive load depends on the situation, but it should be clear why sometimes people may prefer Raylib.

>>109111483
What >>109111803
said and also if you use SDL version less than 3 there are a lot of things you cannot do (unless you use OpenGL on top of SDL)
For example, when it comes to camera, you have to manually calculate every object's position, scale and rotation in a for loop.
In SDL3 you have a shader program and you have a global translation matrix for camera and a local translation matrix for the object. The calculation is done on the GPU instead of CPU.
Another thing is texture repeat. You have to do this manually either by constructing a vertex buffer and using SDL_RenderGeometry (decently fast still), or you do it with a for loop and SDL_RenderCopy
With shaders you don't need either of this.

saying "javascript doesn't have upvalues" is a syntactically perfect incorrect statement so no it's not "clear" that you meant something completely different. And now you want to pivot to "eval is just a weaker version of load" which is also just ignorant, eval is lower level than load, you implement load with eval. Again, you like lua so all you have to do is not talk about other languages that you don't even know how to use to validate your own bias, that's it, very easy thing to do.

tbqf I didn't even notice, I just copy/pasted a quick AI example. Either way you are missing the point.
SDL3 doesn't provide a raylib-like abstraction layer. It just improves on SDL2 at its original abstraction level. Maybe saves a line of code here or there and has better features elsewhere but doesn't change anything about the basic comparison.

Raylib is just easier and more convenient to write programs for if you're a solo game dev working on a side project, unless you already know SDL3 really well.

I said
>When I have scriptable events I can make the code executed there have a custom environments which allows me to use very short names for most functions without it colliding with the wider codebase
so it makes sense that I was talking about environments.
>Again, you like lua so all you have to do is not talk about other languages that you don't even know how to use to validate your own bias, that's it, very easy thing to do.
I do actually believe that Lua is better for this usecase. But if you like javascript that much, it will be possible to add your own builder to the application so you will be able to use whatever language you want if you are willing to code the backend for it

Looks like Sinking Star was checking every entity, every frame to see if it should fall. Was this ever fixed? Maybe that’s why it runs so poorly. https://youtu.be/bVYnxm5jncQ

Literally every game does this, how do you think gravity works?

Physics engines skip objects that haven’t moved in a while until another object collides with it. Similar logic could easily be applied to a sokobon game considering movement is all grid based. You thought you sounded clever didn’t you?

>>109116154
Worst case scenario is still everything is moving
Running an O(n) update across every entitiy is fine even with tens of thousands of updates, Jon's issue is he has O(n^2) checks across entities for some reason known only to him
Proper spatial data structures are the first thing I implement in a game and he's just checking every object against every other object

:( lemme play your game I don't want to register

so anyone joining raylib gamejam?

Literally just start the demo and look at your task manager.

The issue is shader side, the CPU side (which is what you see him do in Jai when he streams) barely even shows up, like 2% CPU usage or something on mine.

Different texture filtering. I think nearest neighbor looks best for this game personally but it's fun to play around.

>>109119448
are they different resolutions? I wouldn't think it's supposed to look like that
but if it is is there some way to get nearest neighbor on closeup textures and bilinear on faraway?
bilinear does ruin the floor but nearest produces some bad artifacts like the wobbly line and the two white triangles

Is there a step-by-step tutorial somewhere to implement a whole, full RPG or dungeon crawler from start to finish?
I've been reading books but it's useless, I can only learn with monkey see monkey do. Looking at source of completed games is also useless, I get overwhelmed quickly. I need to be handheld.

>>109122061
>Is there a step-by-step tutorial somewhere to implement a whole, full RPG or dungeon crawler from start to finish?
No

>>109122061
>Is there a step-by-step tutorial somewhere to implement a whole, full RPG or dungeon crawler from start to finish?
Yes

>>109122061
most likely not, what you need is a concrete idea of what you want
solving problems is all about endlessly splitting until you get trivial chunks
what is an RPG? what is a dungeon crawler?
there's have stats, you do math to resolve encounters, you can find that math
there's a dungeon with monsters, how do you generate a dungeon, you can find an algo for that
you need to know what you want

>>109122061
break the concept down to its most simple essence and implement that.
In an rpg, entities hit each other and reduce each others' health. Implement that then add the next detail.

Best engine for a Top down Squad based game like Company of Heroes or Dawn of War 1? I want to make my dream game about Cyborg Dinosaur Girls fighting to elevate Mankind to Godhood out of love for a man (You). I am low IQ. Basically a retard. I do not have a profit motive and if anything comes out of this I'll just slam it on steam for like 50 cents. I simply like Dinosaurs, Girls and Cyborgs.
