While Charlotte makes friends
WHAT WE GONNA DO TONIGHT, JANNY?WERE GONNA TAKE OVER THE BOARD GONNA TAKE OVER THE BOARDGONNA TAKE OVER THE BOARD
>>744671426AAA devs too. It’s just 5 different games.
>>744671860i got this great game idea, it's a comfy farming sim with datable npcs and the whole thing is an allegory for being trans (i'm trans btw)
>>744672416Does it include realistic panic attacks?
>>744671426It's primarily only because people buy those same 5 games and nothing else.You can build a new game design from core principles, but it's hard to polish it into a framework that will turn people away from their incrementalslop they love so much.
>>744671426Is that raywilliamjohnson?
>>744672728No that’s puff puff, idiot
>>744672416Yeah well check this out, mine is a 2d pixel metroidvania soulslike that is ridiculously difficult even on the easiest mode.
>the remake
>>744672728No it's THIS PROJECT IS RETIRED
>>744672875Not anymore
>roguelite deckbuilder>"campaign" where you have to choose between 3 levels giving you different shit (money/item/crap)>3 choices on level up>that fucking nodebuster-like skill tree which is designed to waste your time>even worse if some skills cost different type of resource to buy them>need 100 blue gems to unlock>can get max 1 blue gem per run and only if you don't die for 9999 minutesI hate this.
>>744671426And what are the same 5 games
>>744671426
How do we invent a new way to move a character around an environment and fight monsters? Should these exploration-combat games be abandoned entirely?
>>744673196roguelike, survival craft, walking sim, deckbuilder, adhd shooter
BITCH GOT A PENIS
DEAR MR NAMEFAGWE ALL AGREE THATYOU ARE A DUMBASSWHY CAN’T YOU SEE THAT?
>>744672078I feel bad for Amy for how badly she got fucked over by Nickelodeon over Making Fiends.
>>744673196>PSX Horror>Metroidvania>Puzzle Platformer>Quirky RPG-lite>Vampire Survivors-like / Action Roguelike/ Bullet Heaven>Incrementals>Deckbuilders>Management Sim>Friendslop>Open World Survival Craft>Cozy/ Lifestyle sim>>744673275In fairness, you could probably invent a new action combat system. Too many games use the same mechanics because people buy games based on genre and expect their legacy skill to transfer.
For me it was Orphan Tears. Me and my dudebro friend loves that shit
>>744671860No, thanks. I have a real job.
>>744673403lel
>>744672416wow soooo original dumb tranny, there is a dating sim for literally anything because every child can make some dumb shit with Renpy
>>744673579She had a pretty awesome career afterward so it wasn't all that bad. A lot of people forget she worked on South Park and Bojack Horseman
>>744672816Alright alright well mine is an isometric japanese-style turn-based rpg with quirky humor and lots of bright colors to contrast with the super elaborate and super depressing lore
>>744673169i love this kind of shit, what game
>>744673598these are so many different genres what DO you want?
>>744671426Hollow Knight, Balatro, Dark Souls, Slay the Spire, and Undertale. The most influential games of our day.
>>744674128I think the landscape is fine honestly, my only real problem with it is the lack of action titles. Indie gaming being so PC-centric means that a majority of the games have to be designed with systems and keyboard/ mouse in mind.
EPILEPTIC TECHNO
>>744673964tbf she only worked on South Park for like two seasons and the movie.
>>744671426What's wrong anon? You haven't touched your rougelike deck building metrovania difficult retro graphics cozy jrpg love letter!
>gigachad is unfunny>infinite subscriberswhy was this so common among millenials?
>>744671426And then some indieslop guzzling faggot would say>But it's better than AAAslop!You know what's better than both? OLD GAMES.
Endacopia, Look Outside and Esoteric Ebb are some good recent indie games that do interesting things, but most of the stuff nowadays really does mesh into the same few genres. not much creativity sadly
>>744674029every single indie game released after Nodebuster.
>>744673403

>>744674667Point and clicks and RPGs get a free pass for originality now?
>>744674467>PS1-style graphicsAlways some dogshit horror "game" that has worse graphics than the shit they're ripping off, and relies entirely on jumpscares with the audio on full blast so it deafens you
>>744674939kek
