Why aren't you making slop RIGHT NOW
>>741625864>New idea>No other game like itI understand prop hunt is somewhat similar, but shouldn't inovation bring reward?
>Garry's mod minigame>but now it's Japanesegee, why didn't I think of that, all I had to do was be Japanese
>>741625864>>741626007>>741626016sourgraping niggas
>>741625864I have no idea why all of these new Prop Hunt clones give the hunters infinite ammo/no punishment for shooting at everything.
>>741626016You can't paint yourself in prop hunt. Also, you're a prop in prop hunt.
>>741625864STRAIGHT FROM THE TOP OF MY DOME
>>741625864I made something useful instead
>>741626069>paint yourself to look like a prop so it's prop hunt with an extra step
>>741625864These slop games only become successful if it gets picked up randomly by big streamers anyways, you could have made 1 million games like these and 1 million of them don't get discovered
>>741625864>making slopthat is the real issuei wanna make something ***i*** unironically wanna play and take even less player feedback than woketard developers in the process. i'm never going to succeed in life with this mentality
>this game is slop>I totally could have made this>ugh why didn't I come up with this>I would have become a millionaire by MY dev standards are just too highK
I feel like posts like this who mock and taunt you for not getting lucky and getting rich off a random idea are all made by indiansTheir culture revolves around being jealous of others
>>741625864Maybe tomorrow>me the next day:
>>741625864Might as well play the lottery
>>741628148>t. indian
>>741626171>So it's [new, unique idea.]Yes.
I dont want to make friendslop and copious amounts of money, I want to make a game that I'd want to play.Ive been making freeware over the past 20 years, I dont have a particular need to change that when Im comfortable with my dayjob and hobbydev setup that Ive got going.
>>741625864MGS3 ripoff
>>741628579Prop hunt isn't new and painting isn't unique.YOU LIE!
>>741625864>days without seething about an indie dev making it:0
>>741625864Making it is one thing Getting streamers to make it a meme game is another
>>741628675>I dont want to make friendslop and copious amounts of money, I want to make a game that I'd want to play.For me it'd be more realistic to make a killing out of a slop and then hire hire actually talented devs from there to make a game I'd actually want to play
>>741628848Every new idea is combination of existing ideas. Prop hunt is just hide and seek but you can transform into furniture. Neither of those are new concepts either, but prop hunt was still unique.
>>741628932Getting a windfall of money would be nice but Id rather not pull the slot machine arm that is the algorithm over and over in hopes that a single game picks up traction.I just make things that I like. Sometimes friends like them too. A few times theyd gotten popular enough to DDoS my download server. Some ideas I didnt like so I stopped work on them. Its a mixed bag but I enjoy the creative process. Been toying around with board game design lately, it helps that my wife and kids (7 and 10) enjoy this creative process too.
>>741628015>>I would have become a millionaire by MY dev standards are just too highThis but unironically. I don't doubt that I could churn out AI-drivel that could hit the right markets, I'm just too proud to lower myself to that level. Kind of the same reason I don't make money by scamming old people, there's a moral and social barrier that prevents me from bringing that kind of evil into the world.
>>741629776Yes anon we totally get it lmao
Why are people so bitter about small games finding success
>>741625864>FotM releases this month>Wow its the bestest thing EVAR bro x3Until next month. Slop eater.
>>741630046Because why didnt I think of that. All of my lifes problems wouldve been solved if I was the creator and I got the millions of dollars.
>>741626038Brother this entire board is sourgrapes. Like every big indie has people ether hating it because it's popular or hating it "because I could have made it"
>>741630046faildevs gonna faildev
>>741625864Even if you're making a slop game with a unique gimmick, it's a total crapshoot whether it'll be successful or not. There are millions of these kinds of games on Steam, and most of them don't get any attention.
>>741625864It's even worse when you had the idea pitched it to a studio and then they pass on it. I pitched ideas like fall guys and only up like half a decade before those came out.
>>741625864I have been trying to 12 times over the years already. Not even for selling, just to try making something.Never even once i could stick to properly learning the engines or any such shit to make at least a demo or a prototype.
>>741634805Fall guys worked because it came out in the perfect time. Pandemic was the perfect time for friendslop like fall guys. It wouldnt be a success if it came out in 2015
I'm slowly getting excluded from my group of friendsThey all went to play this game with people I know nothing about without asking me if I wanted to join, while when I asked everyone if they wanted to play a friendslop game I found I got ghosted
>>741625864Because I would get raped to death with taxes
>>741626007>innovation"L-Look anon, you can have your character pose!"
>>741626069Its the same fucking thing, with less work on the dev end and more work for the player. This games is entirely propped up on the player having a group of brainless fuckwits like themselves to play with.
>>741635097>slowly>rest of the postAnon...
>>741635097what game are they playing without you?
>>741635180>appeal to triviality Go back to r*ddit
>>741625864I've never been lucky in anything so I wouldn't count on it being the one in a million that becomes the memegame of the moment.
