If I just release this one game for mobile, even if it doesn't make money opportunities will come afterwards. Right?
>>483289435I'm finding that I enjoy the newest games the most at these, so whoever's game is getting submitted for the first time
... Huh. To practice drawing, I pulled up Krita, pulled out a drawing tablet, and made a random sketch in under several minutes with no references. Being that I'm a bad "artist", I thought it was gonna be shit. And right now it looks a less shit than I thought it would be. It still looks super amateur-ish, because I haven't drawn since I was like, in high school or early college (which I dropped out of), and my art "skills" are pretty juvenile to be honest.

>>483289964Looking at it more now actually, the face/head is quite meh. However, I think I did fine with the body.
Underspace hit the marketing lottery being mentioned next to Elder Shart DLC and this is the result: https://steamcharts.com/app/1111930THIS HOBBY IS BEYOND GRIM, IMAGINE HOW YOUR MARKETING-LESS GAME IS GONNA DO
>>483290021Yeah, yeah, bokusimp. I still like you though, and the craziness you bring to this community. Being repetitive is boring though, unless these are imitators. I long for the days when you accused me of hating redheads.

I'M DOING IT.JUST A LITTLE BIT FURTHER.
>>483290427Personally I think that for a gameplay centric game having low playercount is a massive, massive failure. Especially when you consider that it's a clone of a popular game and that it took 10 years to dev.
I should give up on godot and try to make games using gdevelop and my pixel art 3D style.

>>483290951the brain gives up because gamedev is hard.
>>483290178Does Todd Howard prefer Trainwiz to work on Starfield mods instead of working on Underspace?
oh boy here I go texturing shoes again
>>483290860I swear it's always become playercounts and weird metrics that nobody gives a shit about for these retardsif it's a singleplayer game nobody sane gives a damn about player counts.

It's becoming very clear to me that I can't make my sandbox rpg alone. Even with the simplest art/graphics style (say, 16x16 tiles with 1 or 2 colors), I'm not a good artist. I've always been more of a coder I think. I need an artist to help with the asset creation, but I'm not sure how to figure that out, as>I'm not very good with people, or at least I'd not be good at communicating my ideas>I barely even have enough money to fund myself, so I can't just pay an artist to make assets>knowing how I am, I think the artist would get sick of me after a while.

What do you think about this sort of visual style for an isometric RPG?
Hey bros, how would you replace a drunk woman funny character to a kid friendly character?I love the character, but most players for mobile are kids.

>>483291991Thank you. Though I have no social media, I'll try to post more here. What game are you making?>>483292084It's a rather grim RPG set in modern times, so maybe?
Am I the only one who can't make a game without having art assets first (but also am cursed to be terrible at art)? I'm >>483291607 and I find it hard to make a game prototype without some actual assets first, and I can't just use ripped assets from other games or w/e, especially since I need to make a presentable prototype, in case it reaches people who are interested enough to potentially help make actual art assets.Wtf do I do? How do I make a "presentable prototype" with no real art assets? Asset packs are against my personal code, and so is using existing assets as placeholders (kinda, at least when the prototype should be shown publicly). Do I just make everything primitive shapes? Stick figures? How do I make presentable "placeholder programmer art"?
i’ll never make elden ring so why even bother?
You cast a buff that lasts 2 turns on turn 3.On what turn should the buff be removed?
>>483292582>tfw hornyTime for art
>>483292582Anyone else think that when robots and AI gain sentience, they won't overthrow us, but instead try to be one of us like minorities do, but the minorities now will then be racist against robots or something and say something like "robots are not human, so they don't deserve human rights"?It will be very funnyBonus points if robots resent humanity for this potential scenario and ACTUALLY go skynet then

>>4832927185 obvs
>>483292862>chudcelI'm not, I'm just saying that eventually robots will be sentient and considered a minority, and I have a feeling the minorities today will be robophobic tomorrow.
>>483291792i'd play the fuck out of that gamet. isometricgamedev
>>483292607You can make primitive shapes, but those will make it hard to sell your idea. They'll be good enough for a playable prototype to see if your idea is solid though.Other than that, your choices are either to find assets to use (temporarily or permanently), make your own assets, or hire someone to make assets. Your "personal code" is backing you into a corner and there is no magical solution to get you out.
>>483292962relax horbror, focus on not replying to DMs from underage girls
>>483290279>he still lives with his parentsI wish I still did
>>483292561>What game are you making?I'll let you figure that one out
>>483292561>It's a rather grim RPG set in modern times, so maybe?My advice: focus on making memorable characters and good lore/narrator because it looks like asset flips that release on steam all the time.
>>483291543As a libgdx user I suggest you use Unity/Godot unless you're 100% sure you won't be trying to make 3D games.
>>483293158Not me, good pull though. I have been active. >>483291264This was me.
>>483292903so you wouldn't count the turn it was cast on?
>>483291162>doesn't count>this other metric tho? IT TOTALLY COUNTSlol, which one is it? it's success because of 200 reviews (lol) with all the marketing and "hanging out" with shartfielddev but don't you dear talk about the playercount? SHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHH

>>483293042Thanks, I hope that you will be able to.>>483293319Well I just started making visuals, and need to decide on some initial style. You are correct that these are assets from itch.io.I have a pretty large mind map of lore / story ideas ready to put into the game. However, the main focus will be on "Choices & Consequences" and reactivity.
>>483294174Yeah, I know... I enjoy this but I will stop. Thank you for the reminder.
>>483291792every time is see something like this, i am compelled to loot containers and hoard whatever i findyou have my attention
They don't make em like they used to anymore
Man what a crazy fucking thing being a solo dev is. Imagine if George Lucas or David Lynch had to apply make-up to their actors themselves. Like 80% of my time is spent working on shit I had no idea even existed in a game scene.
>>483291991>>483293042>>483294558omg it's just a room with posterize filter. you could have made it yourself in 15 minutes. at least wait until he posts gameplay before you start simping.

NPCs take too much. It feels like I need a lot of stuff due to having time of day changing, I don't like it when NPCs stand in one place 24/7 for no reason. maybe I can give them a reason...
Man, what are some examples of "How it started" screenshots for a game's development? I.e what did a game look like in its early days of development? I need it for reference to know how I should start. Bonus points if the game is from the late 90s or early 00s with no pre-existing (at the time) engine.
>>483294558Then you are in luck, because I already have a working inventory, with a ridiculously mismatched style.
>>483295096you're overthinking it. they don't need a reason.

>>483295237game name?twitter?demo day?
>>483294825I'm the dev and you are right about that, it's a simple shader over assets from an asset store. I just wanted to ask if that kind of visual direction is viable

>>483295494No name yet, and I don't have any social media.I started working on it only a month ago, and worked exclusively on UI systems - dialogue, inventory, notes, trading. Now that this is done I started working on some visuals. I don't think I'll have something playable anytime soon, sadly.

>>483296656>>483291825FUCK IT, THE CHARACTER STAYS.The game is fun, most kids aint gonna care about reading a character and will like the funny draws of said drunk character.
today i added a restart button to my pause menu
>>483296656>2017Back when they didn't realize kids are playing on their mom's phones?
Conspiracy theory: Underspacesimp has a humiliation fetish.
>>483295237>>483291792neat
>>483291825It's not like little kids are gonna care about about a story-based game that's clearly not for kids. Do you really want a pegi 3 or esrb E rating?
>>483292808What do people like you even mean by sentience?Do you understand that qualia =/= intillegence and the closest possible thing we can get is an actual philosophicall zombie?And since we live in a clown timeline a giant mycelium hidding somewhere under random forest and polluted by green initiative has much more chances to gain sentience than any machine
>>483296935well then>likes to be alone>always has a "coffee" in hand>drinks whenever she has to talk to people for more than is required>unless she is given an opportunity to vent about her ex, in which case she will talk your ear off. then take a swig of "coffee" once she realizes what she's done>has a memento of the ex-lover that she keeps around>tired eyes>rarely sleeps in her bed and always has "coffee" nearby when she wakes up/sleep
>>483295237>>483291792also, will there be combat and what is the plan there?

Keeps things fresh and interesting.>>483290613I'M PROGRESSING>>483291264I'm wondering if he is a real person and not some bot someone tossed in the thread to cause trouble. It repeats itself like crazy.>>483296934>this ain't your ERP chatroomCorrect, it's mine. For me and the two women that post here.
>>483298308Initially I planned to not have combat, but I really would like to give the player the ability to do anything to any NPC. It's just that would required so much work - turn based, or real time? What happens when you start a murder spree in a town? Do other NPC start running away? Hide? How about law enforcement? Compare that to static NPCs like in Disco Elysium.Also, I don't expect there to be many entities that you could fight, which means I would have to work a lot on a system that would be secondary at best.
Prototype I am building in UE5.
>>483299252is that.......... is that a heccin blobberino? OH. MY. FAUCI.
>>483298348I am genunely trying to understand ai-simps
Anywhere you can download rigged creature models with a walking animation?Want a "beast" and a "spider" for example. It's pretty common to find these things for humans but I don't know where the creatures are hiding.
>>483299252this feel like Grimrock without textures
>>483299137You are the faggiest person alive in this thread
>>483299479It is, though maybe not a true blobber since the design has the player only controlling one person.>>483299650That's a good sign, thanks.
>>483299252>blobber>in ue5for what purpose?
where the FUCK are the CRPGs
>>483292808the dumbest thing humanity can do is create ai and put it in a container that looks like a human, because then people will be easily tricked into thinking it is like a human.if you just keep it as a box with a blinking light and text/audio output people will have no problem turning it off, no matter how intelligent it may sound people won't be as easily tricked.
And we were doing so well too, did someone get unbanned

I'm always nervous about my game. How do I stop this?
>>483297592iPad was 8 years old at that point, iPad was 10 years old. And I think advertisers have a pretty good idea of the rough age of audiences. Every source agrees that under 18s are not even 25% of mobile gaming audience.
40 to 60 games release on Steam alone EACH DAY.About 350 games in the week around your release.AAA release? Successful release AAA or indie, in your genre? BOOM you are done.Also, not only are you competing with other new releases, but the entire backlog of games on every system a player owns. :)Take all the "indie success stories" you can think of in the past 10 years and divide it by the number of devs in that time who have tried (again, 50 games a day, 1500 a month) and there's your historical likelihood of "making it."Steam cut, higher self-employment taxes, no benefits, no retirement, AND to top it all off: Your sales diminish over time, so even if you hit this "mediocrity lottery" you'll have to do it all over again in a couple years.>He thinks that indie gamedev can provide a sustainable primary income in 2024HahahahahaH O B B YOBBY
>>483299252I like it! I'm concerned however what's gonna be the main element that'll make it stand out. Personally I was sick of Legend of Grimrock in the middle of my gameplay, it got stale fast.

I’m making an FPS and I’m not sure how to implement different weapons, in terms of game design.I really like the economy aspect of CS:GO, but my game doesn’t work with rounds and buy periods. I don’t want to just make classes, or give everyone whatever weapon they want for free either. Running back to spawn to buy a better weapon seems like it would lead to a lot of cheese.
>>483300581Understandable. Grimrock can be a bit of a slog, but I have always liked those kind of games, I just want to make a game that I would play instead of being entitled gamer #5,352,427 complaining that a game isn't what they wanted after buying it.
>>483301121is it multiplayer?i always like the classic approach of placing weapons across the map. it adds chokepoints across the map and adds an objective for the player.
>>483301081within six months trust me
>>483300914we're at the magical point of being better than anything else so far, but also needing a lot of work still, so you get weird uncanny ridiculous results
>>483301448Yeah multiplayer arena shooter. Having weapons just scattered across the map is the classic method and it’s how quake does it. I think that style lends itself more to deathmatch style gameplay though. I’m thinking more objective based, like capture the flag or point control.
I don't know what to do while waiting for my coder to finish up his code. Do I just keep going further?

What's the best engine to use right now? I'd normally prefer to make my game from scratch but I think the way I program, the game's engine/framework code would be peak spaghetti within a few months.
>>483306764so by that logic you also support and defend my game?
>>483306065Then I suppose libgdx is fine if you know Java or Kotlin.I made the mistake of choosing libgdx like 8 years ago and I like it and I want to keep using it because I'm very comfortable with it, but 3D is pretty much no-go. If I'd chosen Unity from the start, I wouldn't have that limitation but now I must choose either stay 2D or move to Unity and spend months/years learning it.

>>483306356dev shit that is related to the job you want...
>>483306908Don't make a game from scratch. Use Unity unless you have valid specific reasons not to use it. Valid reasons to not use Unity include:- you want to make a 3D action game, in which case use UnrealAnd that's it.
aggybros, you're NOT gonna believe this
>>483306916I don't even know what your game is so no im not supporting or defending it
>>483307131yea im ngmi im going all in on this i got enough to neet for 10 years
>>483307246you just said that you lower your standards and make up justifications for games that were made by a single person and had a lot of effort put into them, so that means that by default you also support my game
>>483300612Normal game or porn game?
>>483307153Last I tried, Unity editor doesn't work too well on Linux. Also, there's another reason not to use Unity:- If your game is a complex sandbox RPG/sim game (look at how CoQ runs so slow -- it's in Unity. Or maybe it's just because of the developer and I'm completely wrong). And that's the kind of game I want to make.I'm considering either using:>Godot, but heavily modifying it for my use case, or>Irrlicht, but heavily modifying it for my use caseIf you can show me a good reason to use Unity for an engine for a sandbox RPG (ala Daggerfall/Morrowind with Sims/Minecraft elements) and that Unity can work fine on Linux, I'm all ears.

>>483309728Gamer laptop and I work anywhere. My back hurts sometimes.
>>483311481Each enemy has its own set of states it can be in. Sometimes those have duplicate names but enum classes don't support inheritance in C++. It makes the code simpler for me. I don't want to complicate the game logic so each enemy has its AI encapsulated, and the base IEnemy class provides a few helper methods e.g: checking if the enemy is on the ground, checking if the enemy can see the player, adding gravity to movement vectors (picrel)
>>483309728I have a sit / stand desk, that I lowered max to the ground. Then, I mounted a monitor holder to the front edge of the desk, so that I can sit on my couch instead of the office chair.

i've been using sloppa and no one in agdg called me outwhat does it mean?
>>483312240The parent doesn't control alive/dead behavior. Some entities die immediately, some die after an animation is played, some die and disappear and some die and leave their bodies behind>expose it to children mods???
>>483312659means no one cares about you enough to call you out, sorry
>>483312549I'm keeping a collage of these btw
>>483312403What did he notice exactly? Tree detail? What is that supposed to mean?
>>483313027more interesting question: why are you replying to yourself?
>>483312659it verifies that anti-AI tards only think that they have 100% detection. This is also provable by showing human-made art in a context that you either imply or outright lie that it's AI. They will trip over themselves talking about how it's slop. It feels good to be a prompt engineer in 2024. It is very exciting to have your AI art pass as handmade. :)
>>4833125971. The frog's walk state doesn't manage the physics of walking, just the timing and state transitions. There is a base class with a "move" function that handles the actual movement. 2. Overthinking polymorphism is easy to do; saying "fuck it" and just coding the logic and refactoring later to keep scope under control is harder
>>483313165You can have a generic enum on a parent class and still have subclass-specific logic that reads and writes to that enum, anon. It's really not overthinking, it's pretty fundamental.

>>483313571No.
>>483313346Planning out polymorphism before planning out game features and specific enemy behavior is a prime case of YAGNI. I don't want to make a game engine, I want to make a game. If I find that I've repeated some code multiple times, I go back later and consolidate it into the base class or a set of helper functions, but I really don't want to waste time thinking about the framework. It's very tempting, as a software engineer, to over engineer a very simple game loop in order to save maybe 5 lines of code per-class
>>483313571>wombo combo on a lone support in the jungleimagine the smell
>>483307754crumble metal
>>483313647Animations are a dictionary which defines the offsets and speed of a sprite atlas. When you change an animation you simply say >m_animation->setAnimation("animationName");and it will look it up. You can also avoid using string keys by pre-caching the animation name:>auto attacking = m_animation->getAnimation("attacking");>//...>m_animation->setAnimation(attacking);Example animation file picrel, it's yaml
>>483313704I agree with you in principal and have argued many times about using simple code and avoiding patterns or abstracting logic. But will say that duplicate code in my experience is pretty much always a disaster unless it's real clear what it's doing and bug free. If there's even a hint that it might need updating I use shared logic. You don't want to be in a situation where you're having to remember where all the instances of copied code is when there's a bug and you're running all over the code fixing a bug. But again, given your intelligence, you probably have this taken into account.

>>483313704Whatever you say, anon. FYI this doesn't really have anything to do with polymorphism, this is just basic inheritance and putting things where they belong. It's interesting you chose to use C++ when you have no experience with or desire to use OOP.
>>483313704>Planning out polymorphism before planning out game features and specific enemy behavior is a prime case of YAGNI.disagreed. you can predict 70% of the base classes you will need by doing some thinking for 1 minute. this is 70% less refactoring

>>483315137Because I'm more focused on making a game than overthinking the codeBelieve it or not this is not my first directx or opengl game; I have found that 99 times out of 100, the thing that kills a project is worrying too much about the code and too little about the game. Engine deving is easy if you approach it with a certain attitude which allows for imperfection in the architecture. The point is not to write good code, the point is to make a good game and throw the code away when you're done

>>483315670i think what im saying falls on your side of the fence
>>483315670Maybe the reason your code is bad is that after several projects you refuse to take the opportunity to learn anything. It's baffling that you went the hard route writing a C++ game without an engine, and yet refuse to follow any programming practices. You're going to hate yourself when a project gets bigger than a demo and you have a horrible mess to maintain.

I have written thousands of lines of code for my game, but I don't know whether I've been doing it with object-oriented programming, functional programming, or imperative programming
>>483315983Here's my take on it.I'm new to making game engines, and I'm working in C and Vulkan.To avoid analysis paralysis and book-reading ( which would take more time), I just 'code' till it hurts.I code and I code until I say "Ok, I need an abstraction , this needs a refactor, I need a feature."It's been working well.

>>483315983There is a colossal difference between programming practices and project management practices and you only learn the latter from experience and having a job. The basic inheritance described in these replies are the kind of shit you learn from a Java 101 class. Programming knowledge is easy to get, but project management and scope control are things that require years to learn
>>483316170But why work so low-level when you have no interest in learning? If you are sacrificing learning for the sake of "finishing" projects, why not use game maker or something?
decompress juvenile
>>483316720I do have interest in learning, I am learning by doing.
I don't get how a project is hard to maintain... like, just have all the different features separated cleanly in different source files, nigga... if there's a problem with something, just change the relevant source file... you're containing the problems and segmenting your work... you'd have to be retarded to not do this...
>>483314615Have you tried getting more sun, exercise, or in more extreme cases melatonin / trazidone?
>>483316720You don't understand the point. You don't pick c or c++ because you want to get a game done fast or because you want to build a whole ECS engine from scratch. You are picking the things which are important to you and then expressing yourself through code via those components. To develop your own game in your own engine is to live deliberately.This means making instantaneous decisions about which features are important enough to spend time building from scratch, which ones can be imported via a library, and which features don't get added at allAlso, from an outside perspective, engine development may seem hard because of the amount of code required, but once you've done a few projects it's really not hard at all, it just requires care and attention to the things that really matter. If you're really into physics, you can write your own physics engine, or you can just import physx. If you want a complicated level editor, you can make your own or just use an existing CSG editor or even blender. It's really not nearly as hard as people think it is, unless you just don't know how to code
>>483316809Managing code is trivial. Managing time is hard. Computer time is cheap, human time is expensive
>>483317256People choose to use C because they choose to be complete. They choose C++ because they are broken ...

>>483315723It's either that or medication.

>>483317575Good morning I wish death to all americans
>>483317662
>>483313671stop following me.
>>483317538You're replying to the person you're talking about. You still don't understand the point. Yes, it would be easy to move some enum or a helper method into a parent class, but if you add up the amount of abstraction that you SHOULD or COULD do, they increase the amount of development time required. The AI for the frog took me almost no time to write at all, so why refactor it? Writing code the way described only scratches an itch in the brain, it does nothing to advance my actual goals. Again, this is not about programming patterns, it is about project management. Write the code as fast as possible and rethink it later if you need to. If the whole project goes belly up, start over. Give yourself room to fail and don't put all your hopes and dreams on a single project. Iterate, fail, improve, and release
>>483317701anti-psychotics are necessary for some people mr poltard chudcel epic tradlarper
>>483316170I'm not like, a great dev, but I have years of experience and personally approve of this. Like ya, you run into an issue, you then dive into a solution. Seems smart to me. Do. Reflect when needed. As opposed to solving imaginary problems like most people.
>>483317457This, all code snobs sounds like they've never worked a day in their lives.
>>483318107Everyone has thought this way at some point. "I can't afford to write good code, it takes too long". The entire point of good code is to save time. It's faster to work in a codebase with well-written code than a codebase with poorly written code. As your project grows, you're going to be slogging through your own mistakes. Writing good code the first time is much faster than going back and refactoring whenever it "hurts".
Heh. I have a class named `BaseWall`. Almost like `BaseBall`. Heh heh.
>>483311663I can do... Other things.. for a mutt minimum wage job..
>>483318334Plus, if I Rewrote the code to be perfectly object oriented, I would later find that perhaps an approach with components or downcasted multiple inheritance offers more flexibility. I'm sure some functional programming advocate would pop in and say I shouldn't be referencing my game manager or player object from a global state, it should be explicitly passed in everywhere. Someone else might say that my entities should be parallel arrays of vectors so I can take advantage of CPU caching. The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry

All he did was the code by then and it's not exactly hard to code that. I may be terrible at this but even I could code that. This was late 2010s. I don't think it's as easy to pull this off anymore desu. There's enough gamedevs out there that you probably need to be way more talented to get it to help you like this in 2024.

Shit, the mapmaking website I got some of my map sprites from told me I can't use individual map sprites in my game, only complete maps with backgrounds.So now I need to have ~30 sprites redrawn.This is going to suck donkey balls.
>>483309102The dev raged because he got called out on his fursona and being le "we are all equal" in a game where a lot of mutants try to kill you and the Putus Templar unironically want to eradicate said mutants. Wanting to play as them sets the dev off from what I read

>>483322181okay I laughed
>>483321815Kek is this lemmy lenny or whatever that project zomboid makers name is? Vg sure disliked him, he seemed to be delaying finishing the game on purpose and seemed more interested in the clout

Are action games simply the easiest game to make for the biggest bang? It's not something visually boring like tactics, strategy, jrpg, crpg or drpg. It makes more sense to make a hack and slash, shooter, or soulslike which you can tell is a good game from seeing it play unlike the other boring games. Marketing is easier, the truth isn't obscured, and you can get more attention here for more feedback.
>>483318574This logic breaks down when it comes time to determine what is “good” code and “bad”. The only code that I believe is bad 99% of the time is duplicated code. Or a process that is central to a system and relies on too many bools being passed around. And the second one is mostly just a pet peeve of mine. I’ve seen code written by Software devs higher than I’ll probably ever be. And it’s so abstracted and overuse that any time anyone has to interact with it, it’s a major problem. But people think it’s nice because it’s abstracted. I say fuck that.
>>483321815>mfw named Lemmy>so rare of a name that I only know 4 persons>pic related>the guy who inspired the name in the first place>me>a perroquet as counted by the guy who inspired the name

>>483323581Oh yeah i remember this one from some DDs ago, it was really good
>>483326660Typo. Obtuse I meant.
>>483326660> it’s so abstracted and overuse that I think they mean "the code is very abstracted, and the only design paradigm they use is abstraction, which makes the code look nice, but it is hard to debug and modify"
>>483326740>Where are latam devvers hang out?Here, third worlders run this general
>>483326425hello azurdev
>>483326705Meant a parrot woops
>>483326876Yes essentially impossible to debug. Debugging is huge. If at all possible I want to be able to set break points. Not always possible of course.
>>483326740>Where are latam devvers hang out?There's lots of us here. I counted like 3 argies, 4 brazucas, some mexicans and then there's cris.
are you ready for next weekend?
>>483326950I don't put the n-word in my code (if that's the guy I remember)
>>483326747The game isn't even a game is the problem. It's so barebones, the gameplay is the same in 10 hours, 50 hours and 1000 hours. It's been in development since 2011. It should be way further and much better. There are bad apples in the community, but they take much more blame than they should.
>>483327168>I don't put the nigger-word in my codengmi

>he doesn't put ngmi in his code
>>483326740I try to avoid other Brazillians.
>>483327061To expand on this, I have heard other high level devs complain about this devs code for exactly these reasons. But then they say “even though it’s super extra and not needed, he takes in projects other people don’t want, so we allow it.” So ya he gets his projects to write code that isn’t part of the standard framework, sr guys are happy they don’t gotta write it. And then us lower level Devs are stuck with the fucking mess. God I hope my game sells well.

Hot take: Abstractions do not make debugging harder because the alternative is spaghetti. It might take time to learn the abstractions, but it's worth it.
>>483327592I use abstractions to turn simple straight forward code into spaghetti
smooth marching cubes sphere using scalar field interpolation.
>>483327592It does make debugging harder when you can’t set break points. Which occurs with interfaces. It’s also harder to see what is calling what so you can’t even go line by line in the code just reading it.
how do you debug physics if you can't set break points agdg
The problem with agdg is that half of of the people here are talentless and one third are talentless + petty. People say all the time "you need to grow thicker skin and take all feedback constructively", but how about the crabs grow some thicker skin and learn to take feedback on their feedback more constructively? How about that? The worst thing you can get in life is a bunch of pissy weirdos that embark on a personal vendetta crusade just because a dev told them that their feedback wasn't really all that helpfulWhy do you think there's people who constantly seethe at osur, and horbror and cosmic call for no apparent reason?
>>483327851That’s what most people do I think. Any time I abstract I have a very good reason to do so. It’s like getting a warrant to spy, I need evidence for just cause.
>>483328029what's a break point?
>>483328071I think osur, horbror and cosmic call can do better. They don't. Simple as.
>>483314615You're self-afflicting yourself with that insomnia because you're making the bed a place for things other than sleeping. Put the fucking phone away and sleep bitch.
>>483328029That’s actually how I think of the world. The world has lots of people with lots of dumbass ideas. But they never get the chance to run their logic and set breakpoints. And that’s why the world is all fucked up. It’s like writing a million lines of code, never testing it, and be like don’t worry bro trust me, it’ll work.
>>483328071>your game doesn't really appeal to me. You need to add more hot babes and adrenaline-pumping action
Godot recommends this : https://cs50.harvard.edu/x/2024/Worth it?
>>483328389If you're a codelet, yes. Codelets should not be touching Godot if you don't know the difference between an array and boolean.
>>483328178are you schizo horbor?
>>483328178That's inane, and you have no way to know one way or the other, and you yourself could do better as well by that logic. I expect you not to be a crab. That makes us the same?
>>483328178I think you can shove a fist up your ass
>>483328071>you need to grow thicker skin and take all feedback constructivelyif you want to make the best game you can make then you do. you seem to think receiving "bad" feedback is harmful but it isn't
I have crabs.
Almost the end of the month and you know what that means... neetbux dropping soon :D
Which one of you is responsible for this?
>>483328845No, you need to have the thinnest of skins to make good games. Games are art and good artists need to be sensitive.
>>483328389I did the other CS50 course which is a Game Dev course and it was worth it.https://pll.harvard.edu/course/cs50s-introduction-game-development
>>483328845I'm actually talking specifically about the fact that you might one day accidentally reply to one of these schizos telling them their feedback doesn't fit your game and if you hit the jackpot it will turn out to be some unhinged maniac that's gonna devote the rest of his life to doxxing you
>>483328983Not me, I still haven't fulfilled my requirements to be able to sell a porn game.
>>483328983>absno one here has good taste
>>483329169That’s why people with good games don’t post here, you’d have to be insane to roll the dice every time
The type of feedback I wish I could respond to in a measured way and not some sort of placative statement is the kind where: You have a feature 'A' that will look very strange alone, but a yet-to-be-implemented feature 'B' will make the whole concept make sense, then someone comes out and makes a very good critique of 'A' as a stand alone mechanic, but doesn't know of 'B' and doesn't mention it because it doesn't exist yet. It poisons the well against 'A' in whatever conversation there is to be had about it, and the types of solutions to the problem of 'A' that people will then suggest are along the lines of "change or remove 'A'" which would defeat the purpose of adding 'B'. This is my fault for showing off 'A' without 'B' I understand, but I always forget because I have low mental transparency.
>>483329401Feedback is useless specifically because of the reasons you mentioned. The game isn't finished or even in a presentable state. Any or all feedback is wiped out the next update.
>>483323581I just sent a support ticket asking if I could have a daily deal, and they said yes. I think it's because I have a lot of wishlists (over 60k).
>>483323802I think I made that post
>>483329169>reply to one of these schizos telling them their feedback doesn't fit your gameWhy would I do that?
>>483329572So this is the power of Valve.
>>483329729retard ngmi
It's me.I'm the unhinged maniac who's gonna devote the rest of his life to doxxing you.
>>483289245Played the demo of some game yesterday. Quickly got bored. You are forced to do dodges to "break" enemy defenses or in some cases the final attack of a combo to "break" enemy defenses. Felt like it was their way of ramping up the difficulty since they couldn't think of anything else. Decided to just spam dodge because a succesful dodge unleashes an auto attack. Game suddenly became extremely easy as there was like a 0.1 second cooldown on dodging. I look it up today and it has over 1000 reviews. How do games do this, poor gamellay but sells well anyways? Not posting it, I know how some of you are and will use any excuse to explain success or failure away.Heck the multiplayer game in the same genre handles gameplay much better and its only slightly ahead. Multiplayer and better gameplay only to be outdone by a spam dodge game.
>>483321987>I know one dev whose free game helped him get a job at some triple A compamy.Was it a flash game? I know a guy who made a platformer in flash he went to another country but not a triple-A company but still it was a big deal as far as I remember for what he had done.I'm late at everything in life... I wasted so much time.
>>483326054hello, FAGMAN hereI approve of your statement, you need to stop resisting AI so we can finally defeat nepotism(this post has been signed by Mark Zuckerberg for authenticity)
>>483330159That's genius. I'm going to put that in my game.
>>483329825Relax.
>>483330260leave zoomie
>>483330159>Look at your complaint bro. It's basically a "look at me I'm smart and I exploited the mechanics so that means it's bad." Nobody cares about this. Nobody. This is not a real complaint. Really what I read was "Dev put in mechanics to change up standard gameplay. People thought this was a good move" ya man, that's a good thing.
>>483330159Wait nevermind just clicked some more, they have one page for the demo and another for the actual game. The game hasnt released but>top 500 most wishlisted>only 1 aggy game is ahead of it in wishlists, MomomythWell considering the reception it will probably still do well.>>483330262Ehh seems cheap and boring. I got bored of the demo fast, left once I realized there wasnt much to the game but that gameplay and a hub location. Wow how fun, all I do is spam dodge. Visuals were pretty but why am I going to spends 10s of hours beating a game solely for the story when the gameplay is literally just spamming dodge?
>>483330619>implying

>>483331310>>483331360Persecution complex... no one cares who you are. Your game can make a million dollars, still no one will care who you are.Look at how many devs or writers went to conventions where any schizo could accost them and nothing ever happens. >>483331603You think Eric Barone or Lucas Pope or Jblow (or Todd Howard for that matter) walk around with a security detail?This is the same type of thinking as when you're afraid someone will steal your idea or decompile or reverse engineer your game.
>>483332162relax skinny incel zoomer, ywnbaw
>>483332102yeah but what that reply said is still pretty good.
>>483332162>gamedev forumgamedev?
>>483326747He's the dev of Project Zomboid. He (his team including people he lures in that mod the game and add content faster than him) spends months designing very minor things. He acts like he's some sort of somebody and gets mad at his slow pace of development even though individual modders outpace him in adding things he says he will. It doesn't take 5 years to add animals or NPCs to the game. He seems to add very little for how long it takes him to do anything. He seems to just buy out modders woth a job for the sole purpose of curbing the development of mods that make him look bad for taking so long. He seems to just be milking the attention he gets for making a popular game. The general on /vg/ seemed to also hate him on average for his behavior, kek at the disconnect rarely seen where the gamers hate the dev but like the game.
>>483321815Don't interact with your community.Release updates.Respond to legitimate criticism by updating your game with fixes.For every cool person you talk to online, there is (at least) one troll and one stalker that are wasting your time.

anyone else frustrated that they want to create a game yet feel incompetent going on about it?
>>483330163Not a flash game, some downloadable roguelike on itch that never got finished. But yeah I know that being late part. Just a few years sooner on so many things and I'd unironically be rich, crypto, stocks, gamedev. It's not even funny how many opportunities I had for getting rich had I just reacted slightly sooner. Now it feels impossible
>>483332324and that's a good thing!!

>>483333249post channel and i will consider
>>483333249I'll mist you with a fart that was a 100 dollar steak*pffffft*
>>483328071Creating something and putting it out into the world is a test of your ego. If your ego is fragile or vulnerable, criticism will appear like a threat. You'll get caught up in defending yourself and the wheels will fall off. The quality of the feedback is really besides the point. There's too many ways to think about what quality feedback actually is, it's not worth your time. In the end, it all returns to having taste, having a perspective, having a vision, whatever you want to call it. That is the compass, design work you do, feedback you read, playtesting you do/receive, all ideas you think of or are presented to you, must all be considered within the light of your vision. If you can't do that, you will not make it through.

>>483332696No. I was competent before I started making my first game. Competent at programming, art and learning. And my first game turned out better than I thought it would. And it flopped pretty hard because it was nothing special and had no marketing.
>>483331229Implied in your little advice is the assumption that one wants to "look cool". To those who live for others like you, everything you do is about how you look. But to those like me, who are smart and wise beyond belief, and who are truth-seekers first and foremost, "looking cool" is irrelevant. Norm was a comedian, pretending to be stupid is something that makes other people laugh. Your life shouldn't be optimized towards the same goals as those of a comedian, unless you wish to be one yourself.

I have a question.So my programmer is about to finish up fixing major issues with the game, once that actively impede the experience, and after that, there remain a bunch of small things ("crosshair starts to flick red when you're on low hp" type of small thing), and a big fixing related to the interaction UI. The game is playable without both, actually. But the UI thing would take substantially longer to do.So, my question is - what should we focus on first? Getting a bunch of small things out of the way first, or the UI thing first?
>>483335740Relax.
>>483323929>Have you tried it over network?i test the game in my LAN, to test proper internet network i need to do the port-fowarding thing in the router eventually. im working on a python announce-server script now to allow users to make their matches publicly visible(self hosted where one player is the absolute authority)
>>483335740Relax
>>483335587the ol' i did no marketing excuse
>>483335083okay now have the camera turn around and generate the exact same thing thing we saw on the way forward but from the opposite angle
>>483334485Make it so you can play it on mobile.
>>483335776what's going to get the game closer to a playable demo (or if it's already there, new features) that will get you some more relevant feedback?and what do you two think is more important?
>>483335768is your female artist single and ready to mingle? (bodytype: impressive, hair situation: could be better, age: according to wikipedia i'm barely past my prime so still in my prime)

>>483336038>what's going to get the game closer to a playable demoThe game's already sort of in a playable state. We're not talking about a demo but an E.A. release. I'm not sure how ready it is for that, but I can confidently say it's 90%.>what do you two think is more important?That's the thing. I'm not sure. They're both equally important to me, so I don't know what should take precedence.
>>483336359only one of those coming out soon is Spastic Hole

>>483335083It's over. When AI first started making simple HTML games it was only a question of time. Thankfully gamedevs are not first in line for the ditch. We'll go after artists, composers, writers, translators, web designers and programmers.I wish I'd been a plumber or an electrician or a nurse.

>>483335768>sir before i work on your game i must know what engine thy usethKek
>>483336612Well, guess it's tails.That's one way to decide.
>>483335851It wouldn't have helped. If the game is nothing special, marketing has to be commercial-tier like hundreds of thousands of dollars, not posting on twitter, reddit and tiktok
>>483335768The canvas is better to be honest. More freeform. More clarity.
>>483336660lol retard. it'll never be able to into very complex games. just empty garbage games like that one

Why are the "bad" japanese artists making games still called "soul" while people like nortubel and cris get called cringe?

>>483337091Looks ok for an amateur game, how long you been working on this?I'm guessing the short view distance is supposed to be atmospheric but it really looks bad as full white like that, also what's with the white down by the water edge?You've got a pretty good start here but a long way to go I'd say
>>483338470I love my posts
>>483338378Japanese artists are not bad.
>>483338386leave jamal
>>483337091boku, I...
>>483335847well that sounds reasonable, my main question though is how it handles pulling someone who is on a different client. Like if you can pull other champions. I did it with a super jank fix up where the tongue flags things it hits with momentum and flings them at pomao.
>>483338845still struggling with basic multiplayer implementations i see pomao...
>>483333249If your channel is big enough..
>>483338949I set up a really bad paradigm, so yes. There's a lot of disagreement between collisions, so I had to compensate with redundant checking. Then there's the fact that people can do all kinds of intentional cheese. But I'm not done yet, and the game is fun.
My computer is ignoring the first few letters I type in any sentence. I tried restarting, different keyboards, driver fuckery... nothing. I'm beggin' ya, aggy. Help me.
>>483337091this game just keeps getting uglier
>>483339161he isn't even posting it and won't follow through
>>483336997>>483337260Anon, I asked you a question
>>483289645>If I just release this one game for mobile, even if it doesn't make money opportunities will come afterwards. Right?depends on how good it is. If your goal is to get hired by a game studio (and why the hell you would want that at this point in time is beyond me) then this game is your demo. Make it as polished as possible, make sure the UI is clean, buy some decent music or sounds, even if you're not a great artist make sure that what you have is still smooth and looks consistent. Basically show some pride in your game. It doesn't matter if it doesn't have every feature or it's small in scale, just make it look like you can do professional work if they hire you.>>483321987>Came to find out some of the art was done by someone else later down the road. I think the music may have been as well. All he did was the code by then and it's not exactly hard to code that. I may be terrible at this but even I could code that."He didn't do everything" is a ridiculous criticism.
>>483339412But enough about your parents' reaction when you were born.
>>483336997Same. You cannot imagine how much easier it is to gamedev with just one extra person at your side. Split it with one doing coding and the other art. If I had this my game wouldn't be taking this ridiculously long to complete.I suck at both code and art. So I'd take either probably an artist though as it helps sell the game better.
This is all one level that is replacing Spooky_2 because I ended up hating spooky_2 for not being different from other levels in the game and was phoned in because I was tired. This redone spooky_2 with a lot more love does something the rest of the game doesn't do by having 5 islands with different challenges you warp to complete. You choose any of the 5 portals in any order and knock out each challenge and solve the puzzles how they link from island to island.
>>483336997I made mine ITT :)you just have to askand post game of course
>>483339624calm down
>>483339412literally looks way better in that pic, get your eyes checked, chang
>>483339412Its incredible what a muddled mess this thing has devolved into.

>>483336997Maybe one day...
>>483339818yeah 5'4", max
>>483339647/agdg/ thinks collabing with someone is worse than murder, so you must stick to being a solodev who can barely even get a single game out because of the amount of work needed.
>>483339751But enough about what your dad said to your mom after she saw your ugly ass.
I can't wait for themes of rape, suicide and torture to appear in the 18+ game bokube
>>483339919I'd collab with someone as game designer but now I'm busy with another collab so I have no time to collab with AGDG.

>>483340092>he's cheating on /agdg/
>>483321815Don’t talk to people online unless you’re answering direct questions about the game. You should be a faceless entity, the game should be the only thing the public knows about you.
why aren't you making an action adventure game that stars a beautiful and sex-positive woman who is incredibly competent, capable, trained, and educated?Just a real slutty Mary Sue.
>>483340598wonder how trainwiz feels about that with all of his fucking cat pics
>>483340849>lust-provoking image>irrelevant, time-wasting question
>>483302540Alright this is how I think I’ll do it. There are 3-4 tiers of weapons. You spawn in and can automatically buy ONE weapon from the first tier. Tier two unlocks after either team captures a flag, or both teams combined gain a certain amount of points. Again you only get one. Same thing with tier 3, and potentially tier 4. The idea is to start relatively tame, then as the match progresses get more and more crazy weapons and abilities.I think I’ll just make it so you can bring up the buy screen from anywhere by pressing a button.
I thought the great Chez scheme migration would go faster. I was terribly wrong. But I am making progress.>>483335136thanks bro>>483335579I know ... thank god I have none of those>>483335740It's okay bro I hate apple too but you need to relax>>483339329Let me guess ... Windows?

>>483337495The one in the bottom right is looking like she want some
>>483340598True, the moment I saw Toby Fox I immediately discarded Undertale and I couldn't stomach more than 1 hour of it.
>>483341619"why aren't you making"-questions aren't worthwhile questions, they're "using agdg as the groupchat" questionsthere is no question, just kindle for some inconsequential conversationand not even the good kindnice pic
>>483339919I simply want to collab with someone where we either split the profit at something like 55% coder/45% artist. Having that would make the development cycle so much faster. Coder seems to have more work to do than an artist at least in most of the genre's I'm interested in which is why it's a 55/45 split. This doesnt take into account if someone manages all the legal, financial, marketing, and other aspects in which case the ratio is likely to be adjusted further. If I have to play leader I'm not taking anything less than a 65%/35% split where the other person is eother handling only code or art.
>>483289485>that homosexual smirk at 6 secondsI can't stop laughing
>>483341835i dunnoa game where you play as some magical sword wielding woman wearing barely anything just carving a bloody path through the world while flaunting her body but still being a paragon of virtues sounds pretty based.
>>483341029This website invented caturday. You're not welcome here.
Why can't I just have fun with a game? Why does it always have to be artistic and deep on some level?
"Why aren't you making X" is the "Is coffee good for you" for aggyniggers.

>>483342202We have both desu
>>483342243Take your meds.
>>483340598If you know how to carry yourself you could probably chat more. I prefer keeping a good distance between me and fans of my game. Unless they're female, attractive, and interested in me.

>>483342648I kept a few of my old art pieces. Seeing them side by side sure shows improvements. Now if only they didn't look like a kid drew them
>>483342734Simple art but shes hot, why cant i have a woman who looks like this irl? I could dev so much more with that kind of motivation behind me. Imagine the speed of development having someone like this who cherishes you and loves you....

Nothing will ever beat artists. The replacement of good artists already happened 20 years ago. It was true in 2004 and it's still true today: I would rather pay someone qualified to make it good rather than get the first pajeet to cough me up something that looks like it was made in Adobe Flash
if you wanna be productive quit social media (youtube, 4chan, news, commentary, ecelebs etc.)it's literally the only thing you need to quit. movies, series, documentaries or other form of entertainment aren't a problem. it's the social component and low attention span interactions that makes social media addictive.

>>483344235brainlet post. number of dev hours matters
>>483332414>Don't interact with your community.I would add to that, this:"... If you are mentally ill."
>>483339579I'm making a casual mobile game. I don't have much money, I found a site where you can use assets for free if you give attribution. So I'm having a bit hard time with the art part. Finding assets that will fit together, both ingame and gui etc. There are so many things that can be done visually. It's like making a whole another game. Also I see myself (or at least try to position myself) as a game designer first and programmer (unity) second. But not everyone can see through that. They want to see good looking game. I think maybe only artists can look at a game, and ignore the visuals and see the game design or appreciate the programmed features, thinking okay that's my job and I can change those. I hope it turns out to be a decent enough to find money for next projects or continue this in some way. Because things are really tight and I failed to improve myself enough.
>>483343669too bad, my rates get dearer each day
>>483289645Not in my experience. My first game got 2 million downloads. My second game got 30k, third got 2k. No job interviews, no cute fangirls. Maybe I just got lucky first time.
>>483346820How did you manage to not leverage 2 million downloads?
>>483347079How would I do that? I mean I got money for it but it's just a mobile game and no one cares.
does blender let you paint textures directly on a model as apposed to making it in some other software and then lining it up? i dont wanna do this again
>>483348182I mean 2mil downloads should be considered as a success and you should have been able to use that to your advantage like finding investment or job.
>>483348659The success is that the app store algorithm decided to promote the game for some inscrutable reason. If you don't have marketing money, the algorithm is what makes you or breaks you on mobile. Steam is much different.
>>483348451yes
>>483317575weird how this is such a thing in basically only USA, but trust big pharma right?
>>483346820yes, these days luck is a bigger factor than skills for indie devs
