putting this out there, many of the games officially sold for the playdate are really not that great. Although no one is making the big bucks from playdate games, the market isn't saturated so if your game is half decent you will actually have people see and buy your game. The catch is the average game price is around 5 bucks

Thinking about those saving systems.
I have a bunch of unique interactions and the game should remember all of that between scenes. Now I have to write something convoluted that remembers if things were interacted with successfully or not, keep an end state for a bunch of items and remember to rewrite everything to not repeat anything that was already done.
Too much for a shitpost

So far I actually thought the first hub of Hexen 1 was more confusing.

>>725588189
>is that pic a drawing of yours or something?
Nah, just something from one of my artists. It is for the project, but "hey look, some paragraphs" isn't the best visuals.
I'm looking forward to seeing that Harpy, once it's ready. Is the plan for them to really fly or are they just going to be 'offset from the ground', as it were?
>>725588453
Ah I only say that because it looks a little more 'mid game'. If you've played Mario 64, you can sorta tell how dangerous an area is by the number of safe spaces to stand. Bob-Bomb battlefield doesn't have any falls that kill you in one hit, for example. Lethal Lavaland is 50% fire that hurts you, and Tick Tock Clock is all platforming and narrow walkways.

They fly for real! They do it in a basic way, and would love to expand it with actual 3D A* pathfinding. But for now, the current logic is fine

>>725588456
Sometimes I wish I could when certain things are difficult. But then I manage to power through. It'd be fun working with someone but making my own singular vision is also fun.

My most recent "I wish someone else would do this part" had to do with writing, I had some ideas of events I want to occur but linking them up had its difficulties. Putting pen to paper (metaphorically) is difficult for me. But then there was a breakthrough; what if character x was related to character y? It solved the problems and added a new element to character x that made complete sense and rounded out who they were. I'm happy with where it ended up. If someone else wrote their own solution, would I have been content with it?

Now that our men and women have been shown the proper respect they deserve for defending the free nation, it is time to continue our regularly scheduled posting.
Here's something neat: certain Gremlings now grow a pair of testicles and will actually attack the player. At the moment I am thinking of just having only Gremling Majors (Pot Gremlings with completely fireproof armor that throw their spears at you instead of to the side) turn into these devious monsters, but I began to think: what if, by some minuscule chance, regular Pot Gremlings do the same as well?

Yeah but her artstyle doesn't match the rest of the game, and she's just floating there. You have that big, almost empty square at the right corner that says "Shop" and has 3 icons. Couldn't you fit her there? Maybe turn that into her actual shop, kinda like pic-rel

My 2 plans
1. I have this concept of "ephemeral realms" where a random or scheduled server instance spins up, and is shown in the public server listing for a time period. It might be a dungeon for raiding, or a full map where some players might log in to do anything else like PvP or grind skills during that window of the realm being up. This would all level your yggengine.com "persona" which will be a global character of sorts
2. Its your forum avatar, and interacting on the forum will also yield some xp to the persona
Other than that individual server spawns people have, people will have their individual character stats for those. The idea will be we will have cosmetics recognized between servers.

I'm gonna learn SDL and make my own engine so I can fully understand how gamedev works at a low level

Is it a bad idea to use the same sprite for the gameplay (left) and cutscenes? I've been thinking about having a second sprite, maybe one that looks kinda chibi, for the cutscenes, but I'm not sure.

Did some UI stuff today, drawing icons on the screen boundary if the marker is off-screen. Good reminder how much my skill as a dev is utterly blown the fuck out by the fact I never drilled linear algebra to the point it was intuitive. Fuck me, it's not even complicated linear algebra.

For starters, he's charging $20 for some 2D garbage. Shitsong is a ripoff already, so this makes the high price even more egregious. Like, as much as I ragged Peripetoria or whatever, at least that game was in 3D and somewhat justified the still exorbitant $30 price tag.

I mean, if Chris Chan of all people can get a talking plush made based on his atrocity of a fictional work, what's stopping you?
I am tempted to look into who the hell made those plush toys so I can snipe them and get them to make talking plush toys based on my own, superior characters.

The irony of your statement is that the first ever "merch" I ever made was a 3D printed model of the Lieutenant from Impulsehazard almost a decade ago when I was still a kid. Turns out Windows 10 had a service where you could buy 3D printed models you design on the computer so I had this abomination turned into a cool statue; the first time it arrived, the arms were broken off the pauldrons so I requested a replacement; the same thing happened the second time so I decided not to ask again because it just meant my model was shit (thank God for Krazy glue, though). Looking back, it looks bad, but it was the first ever IRL 3D model I ever got and it holds a special place in my heart.

While that's very cool I noticed that in your previous webm you barely hit anyone until you land and the enemies start pilling up together. Anon I've been seeing your game for a while and it looks super cool, but lots of 3d movement + slow bullets is a recipe for frustration since you are bound to miss most shoots and the power fantasy gets lost. Even Descent had the courtesy of having one hitscan weapon and that game wasn't as fast as yours. I'd say at least give hitscan a go as a test. You could still try and replicate the portal stuff with hitscans, maybe not painting the bullets on screen, but their traces? Oh and sorry for the long rambling, I love this game design shit.

>>725606770
oh and maybe just making the current bullets way, way faster might be enough

You won't because it doesn't happen anymore. Valve changed the algorithm in 2019 and now every new release flops unless you quite literally sell a hundred thousand copies in its first week, only then do you get any kind of promotion by Steam.
Unless you already have an established audience by the time you start, like a Youtube channel or a discord server that's filled with retards who'll buy your game on first notice, AND have connections to streamers and youtubers day one to shill your game on release (which you are not, let's be real), you're shit out of luck.
>But muh nextfest!
It only helps a little. It may get some eyes on your game but it's not a guaranteed success. It's all fucked.

Oh, and to top it all off - the average retarded steamie considers a game that sold 200 THOUSAND copies and made 3 million dollars in revenue an "obscure hidden gem". So there's also that working against you.

>>725584747
where is nortubel?

>>725618092
Yeah, I get what you're saying. I remember hearing about twine/sugarcube being a huge pain in the butt to deal with to the point that people said to not even bother, but I'm not really sure if they found something better to use. Maybe Ren'py? Not sure when you tried out doing it yourself, but the way AI is now you can get away with a lot with it helping you out, though it'd have to be a final resort since it still requires fiddling around with it, and you'd have to do research into what's better to use than twine.
I do think that you'll be able to find someone though, your chances go up exponentially if you provide proof that you've been working on it and essentially have proof-of-concept. Make mock-ups and stuff like that while you work on it to share around when you look for a coder. Really, the hardest thing will be getting them to stay, people are really flaky.

>>725618882

There are a bunch of text adventure engines with different approaches, limits, and scripting capabilities. If declaring twine variables is too much "code" for you then you won't find anything easier. You will have to properly team up with a programmer-designer fellow, because the real pain starts when managing variant dialogue and ensuring coherent order of progression. CoC relies a fuckton of text substitutions, which is plain if/then/else logic, but anything bigger than a 20 minute CYOA (much less an "actual game") will quickly spaghetti out of control.

>unreal engine
Because we like games that run faster than 20fps.

Part of me wants to share, another part of me doesn't want to risk being associated with 4chan, let alone /v/. This place is a self-flagellating shithole.

Then perhaps try reddit, faggot.

>>725621112
I agree, but at the same time every social media platform is terrible and exposure is important, so really who cares. Gotta get eyes on your game somehow.

>>725584747
how about just building your own engine?

I finally figured out how magica cloth works in unity so my character's legs don't clip through the skirt while moving around.
Time to work on my hentai game.

please add charge attacks that do big damage and have hit stop, it's one of my favorite mechanics

>>725621094
In other words, you're too stupid to learn how to optimize and expect the engine to do it for you?

Probably Twitter, or one of those sites where you can pay for people to read your message.

Offline alternatives to Trello?

Also can you post good GDDs and the stuff you do at the start of a project like onepages so I can see what goes and works please ?

Dangen entertainment very much look like publishers who will publish any old shit and not put in the work to make their cut worth it.

If I don't want to work with others and have no interest in coding, am I stuck with RPGM-MV? Not interested in being lectured on why I shouldn't work this way, just want to know my options

Will check it out, but I was looking for something that also lets me change the color of the text.

I want to something simple, I tried to make simple txt files and open in notepad and only change the colors, but I can't do that there.

Word let's you but I don't like it.


I would like something like that where you move the squares and I can personalize the colors. Most I see are clotted as fuck and the GUI is ugly but then they lack simple things.

>>725626750
Ok I like how simple this is but I wanted to change more colors (like having the title of a different color, not all the text)

Finished up a dynamic dialogue system in UE that I'm pretty happy with. (Suggestions for the UI design would be appreciated)

>>725604201
Can't tell if you're saying YIIK is better than MB or not.
MB was pretty fun for the bargain bin price

>>725606102
Do the guns need to be so big/high?
You're losing 30-40% of the screen estate to them and the massive hud

>>725609919
You cant base everything on what a few anons say, especially if you're making a vn.
However, its a risk to make a vn anyway because they don't 'look' fun
