BUY MY FUCKING GAME YOU LITTLE TWERPMY LAPTOP IS BOILING
Well shit, maybe I need to learn Ericmaxing
>>484287496Well yeah, someone has to teach them.
Goodnight aggydaggy
>>484289547-75% right away is such a mistake, why would he do that?
Jonathan Blow has hinted many times how his company is bleeding money but he has also bragged how easy it is to "conjure up money out of nowhere"he'll be fine
>>484289547>all those people who paid full price
just 3 more to go
>>484289721Because he spent a million dollars remastering it to get like 500 sales.

>>484289892anon, reviews != saleshe got way more than that
>>484289547BUY MY GAME BEFORE I JONATHAN BLOW MY FUCKING BRAINS OUT
>all those things she said [about my game] (nothing)
>all those people who took time out of their lives to replay a 2008 game
>>484290221>eric puts lolis in his game and succeeds>jon doesnt put lolis in his game and is a loserit all makes too much sense
I hate my fucking job.
Enough about the bald false prophet. This is a gluten_puck thread
https://laserwolvegames.itch.io/daggerquest/devlog/747600/alpha-release-034I added back in all the UI pizazz like fading transition and re-arrangeable menus. I'm never actually going to get to the slog of adding content, I'll just keep adding new features and whatever catches my eye
>>484290221>Air Pear was his only game without lolis and also his only non successful game
>>484290657dibs on beebz
>>484290529>formerly grey yellowed GameboyHOLY SOVL. I wonder what game is in that cartridge
>>484290064I was being hyperbolic.Best case scenario is something like 30,000 which after steam's cut and all that jazz he's looking at less than $100k.For an anniversary edition that took him like 3 years.
>>484289747>he has also bragged how easy it is to "conjure up money out of nowhere"He's a "made man" as in he has access to patronage networks. Rich fucks will throw "investor" money at him because they consider him part of their club.
>>484290476But don't forget to always be employable. I made the mistake of starting my own business instead of looking for a job, and it ruined my life.
>>484290616Nice Orblike
>>484290923This website severly underestimates how much games make. You should stop using it, or at least double the value it spits out.
nigga I count to ten and den I start smoking all y'all bitch ass honkys
>>484291039that's kind of depressing but doesn't really surprise me
>>484290923>took him like 3 years.Years are meaningless in gamedev, hours and dollars invested are what matters.I've been working on my game for 8 years, it earned just under $25k, but that's $33/hour for me.
>>484291216Okay he made $120k off the remaster that took him 3 years to make and cost him at least $100k to get all the artwork redone.That's still really bad.He operates a studio with 5+ people working for him.
>>484291346Yes, it's still really bad. The numbers on the website are still consistently wrong in a big way for every game. Use a better website.
Caffeine; you can trace the enlightenment period of human history to the usage of caffeine. Caffeine, which is found in tea/coffee, the two drinks that were bestowed upon us.Thank you God, for granting us caffeine.
>>484291501Cobfeebros...We WON!
Blow had a Netflix deal that might have saved his ass. We don't know if his contract was fixed or if it's a "we will pay you a certain amount based on how many people play your game through our service" type agreement.

I missed the last demo day, now I'm back and I want to try out Dicetris cuz the thumbnail is cool. Anyone remember the password and is willing to tell me?

>>484293078Do you care?
>>484293139Nice
>>484293139Why are you Polish?
>>484293139>WHAT THE FUCK what is this game it's actually competitive it might steal my audience>realization>oh it's just Peripeteia thank God
>>484292793>>484292965Faggy is pedo now? I was gone from the threads since last year. What did I miss?
>>484292958I just want a world where the weakest weirdest kid in school is accepted or at least tolerated and not bullied. Wanting anything else is evil and wrong.
>>484293520is that a confession?
>>484293647noooooo /s
I'm just gonna steal my game's logo design from a vtuber.
>>484293139That text is quite hard to read because of the e and a
>>484293785I wish you would steal some taste and personality from someone who isn't a tranime addicted genetic failure
>>484294020Any suggestions?
My game will have hot elf women.
>>484294230Mine too.
>>484293471It's just a spam bot someone made to disrupt the threads. It's not capable of higher-level thought or answering questions. It always makes the same preprogrammed posts and replies ad nauseam.Sometimes the guy who made the program will add a name to the list or edit the response a bit, and maybe even type a reply from scratch a couple of times a week, but that's usually as far as it goes.>>484293139Cool UI, especially towards the end.
>>484293802I'll try modifying the font or find a better one, haven't fiddled with it enough>>484293280My parents' fault>>484293290you can have some of our audience if you need it>>484293265thanx
Blobber progress post:The base functionality of my interaction system is now working; the player can open doors and hit switches. However, to have it completely functional, I need to have an inventory system working, so I started working on the UI. The leveling/stat system is fully functional and I can generate an inventory based upon the size I give the player actor. Next I will be adding some test items and the ability to pick them up from the environment and use them such as keys for locked doors. Items will be derived from a parent item class with its data based on an enumerator that tells it what data to pull item data from in a data table. This will allow me to create many items very quickly.
>>484293613I've lived through the entire golden age of democracy and bullying was always there. Are you saying that fascism had more bullying than what we currently have? Why do you think that? Just because fascism = le bad and bullying = also le bad therefore fascism = bullying? Genuinely confused about what you're trying to say here.
>>484289547>what if we sold a 2d platformer in 2024?

Games with this vibe?
>>484294907Are you ready for this level of success?
>>484294096steal from existing games
>>484295404A game with 92 reviews would be the 41st highest reviewed agdg game of all time.
>>484294907how the fuck do people make progress
>>484295771just like work
>>484292793What’s this I hear about Horbror?
>>484295404This game looks like it could've made more than that, especially in 2017, even if some of it looks a bit tacky. What went wrong?seems nobody played the game for longer than 12 hours, even the people giving it positive reviews. Apparently it's ported from 3DS and it looks like it is too, so giving the sales figures of a ported game is disingenuous when it was designed for a different console.
they'll never take me alive
>>484294983Fascism is a political expression of cruelty and antithetical to personal freedoms. In D&D it would be lawful evil. In a familial context it would be a strict and overbearing father who would force you to give up on gamedev and become a coal miner. The only people who like it are naturally submissive.
>>48429569792 reviews in 7 years. I mean if that's the bar for success, then it's pretty low if it doesn't even let you keep developing instead of having to find a job.>>484296045GTAV is a ported game too, as is literally every Japanese game. What's your point?
I corrupted a huge amount of network backups on accident last night, but I started over. I'm making a more powerful network to perform the same diffusion task. Right now, every three hours the network backs up. I set up a script to read them in sequence and put out images like the frames of this animation, which shows the last ~15 hours of progress, including the starting condition. According to my ballpark, it will take 180 hours to reach the level of the previous one that got corrupted, at which point any additional training would be 'gravy'.
>>484296196Looks pretty cool but performance is abysmal
>>484296524how many images are you training it on? and what is this going to be used for, randomly generated fruits?
>>484295697Not just /agdg/ but 92 reviews also puts your game in the upper echelon on games on Steam. I don't know a lot of people truly realize how many games on Steam don't even crack a singular review, let alone 10 or even 92.
>have two fangirls in my discord that gush over my game>one is a qt>voice chat with her>she has a cute giggle too>keeps saying how excited she is for my game>says i could be like the "stardew guy" and a millionairethis shit goes straight to my ego
>>484293613The best place for that is a rich, conservative neighbourhood. Right-wing rural areas may be kinder to them as well.If your kid came out in an unfortunate manner, save up money and move to a more right-leaning area. I can't promise they won't be bullied but they should be mostly fine. The more successful you have and the more money you have, the better a future you can buy for your children.
>>484296734It's 91 images, the 13x7 grid of that animation is how it is doing on each of the fruits in sequence. I can't justify building it except out of curiosity. I don't have a plan for it.
>>484296519Japs make a lot of zero marketing Steam drops for some reason.
>>484296265Fascism is simply the deification of the state.
>>484296519>GTAV is a ported game too, as is literally every Japanese game. What's your point?A mobile game or even a DS game that is ported to steam will do far less well than a game intended for PC. That's just a fact. The exceptions don't disprove the rule.
>>484295771you just posted progress.now do the thing you did before recording the webm
>>484296045>What went wrong?Its a bad genre for sales. Gaming may be the largest media in the world but not all sub types are equal. No one gives a crap about old school dungeon crawlers like that at all.
>>484296858that was me :3 teehee~
>>484296858anon the anime girls speaking in your head aren't real
>>484296858stop humble bragging, bocchiposting is for despair
>>484296858I should’ve made a gay cozy game
>>484296858Trickydev?!?!
>>484297138All ports should be done from PC to other devices. Devs are fucking stupid not using PC as the main platform.
>>484296858bing "voice changer"
Gamdev?
>>484297240The game released in 2014, anon. The market was a lot more forgiving back then. Look at all these reviewers that played the game: http://thekeep-game.com/Nintendo3DS/?page=reviews
>>484296858I wish I had this.

>>484297858If only my gamedev posts got replies
>>484296858Based, keep Ericmaxxing and you will have your own harem of fangirls.
which is worse tranime posters or kpop posters?
I am trying to figure out how to get my character to slide down or at least go faster down slopes. This is a required reading aint it?
>>484298119No one even posts game on here anymore
>>484298119all tranime posters are confirmed yesdevsdo kpop posters have games?
>>484298197No one cares when I do
>>484298083hmmm that's a valid take. As someone who's dedicated my entire life to creative pursuits I always keep thinking how shitty it would be to live in any of the periods where you were forbidden by law to be as creative as possible. As existentially toxic as our current society is it still has some benefits
>>484298308>do kpop posters have games?Yes.Well.... At least I do.
>>484298119p*do posters
>>484297514But how are you going to be #20 on the nintendo e-shop if your game isn't designed for devices like DS or switch? In fact, if you make a game for such devices, you can get away with less complex gameplay and simpler models than what people expected from PC.>actually, #20 on the e-shop is probably terrible considering Crumble got to the front once>it seems the developer is still in business however so it probably earned them some pretty mediocre earnings
>>484298119I've actually grown to like the pink anime girl that gets posted here.
>>484298361Post a better game maybe?
>>484297481yes>>484298105she even told me how cute it is that eric's girlfriend supported him while he made his dream game. she's 100% ericpilled and wants to make her own cozy game inspired by him. it was super cute.
i dont mind anime avatarring but the ones that do are never funny and always cringe, i know theyre trying to be quirky cringe but its too inauthentic
>>484298808My game is the best though?
>>484298361>>484299090stop imitating me dipshit
>>484298189Just use ChatGPT if you suck at math.
>>484289428>Powerful Expansion
>>484299134Relax.
>>484298308I do but I dont want to get doxxed.
>>484299090I bet it sucks lol
>>484299609Gee I wonder why no one posts game anymore when this is your attitude
To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to Demo Day on July 5th.
>>484299775what happened?
>>484299775Thanks for answering my question but now I have another question: Why aren't you going to be going to Demo Day on July 5th?
:: Project Nortubel ::progress :: This image will show up in chapter 6. Also did NSFW versions of it https://files.catbox.moe/cciftm.png https://files.catbox.moe/demf3w.png
>>484298624pedo posters keep the tourists away, we need them now more than ever
Watching video game essays to feel like I've learned something for the day.
>>484299948>spoilerSaved.
>>484299965tourists aren't the problem here it's the schizos and p*dos and furfags
>>484299996>not watching history documentaries and imagining yourself making an award winning historical game instead
>>484299948>https://files.catbox.moe/demf3w.pngI don't have a reaction image that matches my face
Remember that the new meta is to make tons of fake trailers to see which ones catch on and then make that game.
>>484297514You can't optimize for everything. The best place to start would be somewhere in the middle between mobile and PC so that you can go both ways.That is if you're looking for most commercial success. If you just want to make a great game, then make it and publish on whatever platforms make sense as is.
>>484299948based coomdev
>>484300086t. tourist
>>484300252I've been here longer than you
>>484299948same energy as og shane. maybe its a sign you'll make it someday
>>484299948is norbutel yuri?
>>484300278Really? How long have I been here?
>>484300218Mobile should not even be considered an option. Any consideration towards mobile support will be a detriment to your game as you will make sacrifices for supporting a shit platform for bad games.
>>484300283he cute?
>>484300283Me on the left
>>484300471I actually thought of the main Nortubel girls being in a love triangle with Melvin involved.
frogunbros... its over
>>484299906>>484299861because...it's not ready yet!
>>484300515he cute
>>484300478I have no fucking idea but I've been here so long that statistically I'm likely to be right
>>484300618Fag
>>484300876watch your mouth
>>484300509Baldur's Gate is on mobile. So is Knights of the Old Republic. So is GTA San Andreas. So is Stardew Valley.Pretty much any game can be viable on mobile.
>>484300618Is that the bad progress posting?
>>484300940Trannyfaggotretard
>>484300618rip frogun he sold his soul
>>484296196i like this, what is the gameplay loop ?
>>484300618Faggot.
>>484300951Making shitty ports of old successful games doesn't mean they're viable. Nobody with any bit of taste or self respect plays those on mobile.
>>484300208So like I said I would do in https://arch.b4k.co/vg/thread/471943959/#471978527 and AGDG replied:>there's so much fucking wrong with this lol >absolute retard with his priorities all wrong. >prioritising making a trailer for a game that doesn't even exist yet (for a meme showcase no less) over actually making the fucking prototype
>>484296858Congrats Marmodev
>>484299168I need to learn this for myself...
>>484301280The risk is that you make a good trailer, it gets hype but then it takes you too long to capitalize on it.
what happened to recap.agdg.io?
I tidies up the Alien ladies sprite on the main menu as it was upscaled.I've also added some extra details to the main menu, I think it looks smarter, but my colour palette looks so garish at times.The right hand side will contain some help on the menu or contain some information on the characters you will face.
>>484301515The same risk exists for prototypes so it's not different in that sense.
>>484301223Nah, the ports are fine, you just have an irrational dislike of mobile games as a concept. The only difference is that you use your fingers instead of the mouse and keyboard. If you can't make your game work on mobile, it's a skill issue on your end.
>>484300618>hey, fag, we noticed pride month has almost ended but you haven't told everyone how gay you are yet>is your game not a safe space? hello? do we need to call a raincheck on your ass?>you have until the end of today, get moving
>>484301559apologies for the typos, its early hours.
>>484301515A solution is to start selling preorders if you get a lot of hype, then it's just a matter of making a decent game.
>>484293139What genre are you making?
My projects starting to come together and I would like to thank the people that helped me so far with coding related questions.
I'm not sure what to do next. All I have left to do pretty much is boring marketing crap and testing.
>>484296858i don't believe anyone socializes anymore
>>484301746Except virtual touch controls are terrible to play with and all games that do that suck.
>>484300618will any hero ever stand up to the fagfia and tell them NO FUCK OFF DIE
>>484293139WTF Peripeteia-sama is a prog enjoyer too???Thankfully I am simping for the OTHER Magog-larping Peter signed to Charisma Records, so you are not going to mog me in my own turf.
>>484302241Nah, they're fine. Console controllers suck. See how easy that is?
>>484302347Me, I will do it.
>>484302456They do kinda suck. They're okay for a few types of games but terrible for most.
'ate signals
>>484299948How do I license a Nortubel character for use in a work?
>>484302835spit em out!
>>484300618Fuck I missed the opportunity to use pride month for marketing. I hope this still works next year
>>484302926What do you mean?
>will any hero ever stand up to the fagfia
>>484300208I did that in my head and then snippets from one trailer kept popping up more and more until I had to just try to make it.
>>484301280didn't read but that game Viewfinder, I saw that game in prototype form for like 2 years before a trailer.
>>484303312one day someone will be begging me the same thing and I will just ignore them
>>484303312what happens when it reaches 10 000?
>>484303312never played SD, do people talk about you in the game?
>>484303690they'll send a strongly worded letter
>>484303619Based. Do as Eric does and avoid any interaction. It's the only way you can win.
>>484303795It doesn't matter chud. #RepresationMatters #LGBTQI2S+ #GoldmanSachs
lets start a counter petition to leave eric alone
>>484303312apparently someone asked him at the concert meet and greets if he was aware of the petition to which is only reply was that he was. the past concerts he attended he did no meet and greets. lol
LEAVE ERIC BARONEY
>>484303312>10 000>stardew sold more than 30 000 000

>>484303690it won't because 10,000 will turn into 4,100 the day after
>>484302926Just pay the licensing fee
>>484303232What are the steps someone needs to take to obtain permission to use a Nortubel character in a fanwork? What are the restrictions regarding their use? I've seen some fan work making use of nortubel characters but I've never seen this discussed.
>>484304447>I've seen some fan work making use of nortubel characters but I've never seen this discussed.Which work?

>>484304447Nortubel dev (EyeBallTank) here.Basically the following:>Let me know who you are and what project exactly you wanna make, where I can find it etc (Even if it means Discord or somewhere else you can find me)>Specify which character to be exact>Wait to see if the character(s) you want to use have yet to make a real debut/appearence in a project of mine (Because if a character has not yet shown up properly, then they might not even exist at that point)>Make sure to credit me and tell your audiences that they're my creations (Specially if they interact with YOUR characters)>Maybe use your own art if possible... maybe>Depending on your creative liberties on their designs/personalities, try setting up notes indicating your own personal touches and how they differ from my interpretations>Do not monetize your game including my characters, since I'm currently doing my stuff for freeI thought about this and sort of copied these rules from the Helltaker guy, since he set up a page like this.>>484305045Yeah, Bonko in DODJ is a Bonka reference.The design differs a bit and so does the name.Even in this DOJD art I did for Krimb-Stone and Sarah, I sort of specify Bonko as a seperate character from Bonka.
>>484303312If they hadn't redesigned the flag right when they did, there's no way they would have shoved black and brown in there. Such a knee-jerk reaction to BLM
>>484303312>>484305354why the fuck is there black and brown on the flag? Are these people deranged?
ignoring the issue is literally genocide for those affected.
>>484289985to be fair, he's right. laptops fucking suck. but you just want one that works because it's so convenient.
>>484304895Assuming you're still talking about the pronoun options in game, wouldn't it actually be easier? He's already a multi millionaire and the majority of his fans don't give a shit about this "issue". If he sells the game people will buy it and all he has to do is stay out of the public eye and ignore them from his Scrooge McDuck money pit. Yeah, there will probably be tantrums from the usual suspects, but normal players are going to get sick of them pretty fast if they shit up every discussion about a highly anticipated new game with pronoun bullshit.

>>484305678I wonder what Nortubel character you wanna use and what kinda project is it.
>>484305616it's a statistic that became a meme. "join the 41%!", etcthe 41% is actually suicide ideation and attempts, not the actual number that kill themselves but this is 4chan so you know how it goes
>>484304597false
>>484305803That image is in Nortubel part 4, the beach level lol.It was a failed attempt at marketing.Also, Stella's hair is an inconsistent mess.Even changed her "ref" used in part 2 to include her hair in a cutscene from part 3.
>>484305448Identity politics. The rainbow was meant to represent everyone because it's literally a spectrum of color. Regardless of your opinion on the gays, it's a pretty smart flag design in that regard.That still wasn't enough for modern American liberals. They insisted that black people and trannies (the latter already having their own flag) deserve special placement on the pride flag... just because. These people are so up their own asses that they'll look at a flag that's meant to stand for uncompromising inclusiveness and ask "WELL WHERE'S MY TEAM??".>Are these people deranged?
I've been downloading assets from freepik. It's literally free you just have to give credit. But I feel like there is a catch. I feel like I'm missing something. Or maybe I'm just lucky to be able to find what I need?
https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/ski-fi-gurlI like this one, someone make an assetflip using her as their character
>>484306178I found the answer to this question in 5 seconds through google.
Would it be too on the nose if I made the main collectable of my loli game lollipops and named them "Lolipops"?
>>484306178The problem is you don't really know who made those assets and if they're stolen. If someone decides to sue you for infringement, Freepik will not help you. But you're statistically more likely to get murdered so maybe you shouldn't worry too much.

>>484307371Are you referring to the actual games or their characters' cameos in Nortubel?I released chapter 5/Brinkaedea, so all guests should be available.DOJD was updated some days ago but it seems to be fixes and tweaks.Chilly released this game with the monkey https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/936645Maybe both or either will have updates in this DD.
>>484306546>The problem is you don't really know who made those assets and if they're stolenThanks, this one I didn't think of. But the account I'm getting assets from is pretty big so I assume if they were doing something fishy, it would have been caught.

>>484307039What would be his response to someone saying that video games arent meant to be taken seriously?
>>484305826Probably some Bonka 3D model.
>>484308051Probably say something along the lines of>you're stupid for saying that and you don't understand that video games are a serious medium because you're stupid, but also the majority of video games are bad because they're made by devs who don't make their own engines, unlike my games The Witness and Braid (which just released its anniversary edition on Steam) which are outstanding works of art

>>484309628You use your brain to decide wether you want to do it or not.
>>484309628If this happens to my game I will just calmly explain my game characters aren't supposed to be self-inserts to the player and they have defined pronouns which are not chosen by the player but by the characters themselves and I expect the player to respect the character's choices towards their gender-identity.
>>484309628You're replying to a post that shows you the answer. You ignore them. Eric has never addressed this publicly.

>>484310531>there's no reason why someone can't just mod it inexactly the reason why doing it yourself is cringe. they just want to strong-arm devs into doing stuff to prove they can.
>>484309628Literally just say no I don't want to do that. What are they going to do? Engaging with social media is a choice.
>>484310718Why should I care about what they want instead of caring about how what they want benefits me?
>>484309628I'd tell them no then move on.
>>484311308that's just asking for your next game to be review bombed for not having feature 'X'.

Other areas of this website you have to be an attentionfag to gain an identity. Most people on /agdg/ don't want to attention fag so they don't bother with getting a tripcode letting them easily be spoofed by other people. Most of them it's pretty obvious when a poster is being spoofed. The sentence structure is different and they are either noticeably nicer or meaner than their standard post of progress.

>>484289428Learning blender. Half way through learning modeling pretty well. I can make modular shit barrel pillars walls clutter furniture etc. Hav not touch animation or rigging but what is the fastest way to learn materials. So far Ive only touched color metallic and emission. Where do I learn the real stuff. There is a ton of options to play with but ive also seen something called procedural materials and mods/addons for it. Or even libraries. Do people make their own shit or pull/modify from libraries of materials. How are materials delt with in the real world. In the end Im making shit to import to godot or unity currently.
>>484315609Also it occurs to me that I did not even think about textures which I have not touched.
If you are making a mid 2000s styled game and don't have a matching winamp skin, how do you sleep at night?

Gonna dump some of my rough RPGMaker screenshots here if that's okay. There's a lot of placeholder stuff like text being misaligned and unfinished assets but I think its good to get a vibe checkI got the movement system to work isometrically with lighting and collisions but its even rougher than this stuff right now1/4
>>484316519yeah otherwise known as retro
>>484306351why don't you do it yourself?
>>4843167892/4
>>484316789>>484317053Looks cozy so far I like it.
>>484317053>>484317218Thanks. I did all the fun stuff for a lot of the assets so far but now I gotta do all the annoying polishing and fixing pixel stuff. 3/4
>>484317053Coffee Barone
>>484317369There is just something I really like about the having the UI surrounding the main gameplay. It makes me feel oddly safe idk why lmao. Also reminds me of some old school point and click games. Keep up the good work anon.
>>484316789>>484317053>>484317369>rpgmaker is soull-ACK
>>4843173694/4I wish I had another enemy for this sketched out but nothing done yet. Spent too much time drawing spooky battlebacks
>>484316789>Made in RPGMaker>BTFOs 99% of the games made here
>>484316789Remember when anons crabbed this guy because of his ui
>>484313038The most pathetic cliche attempt at making an ending that feels deep and impactful.Please don't do this. Ever.
>>484317547Thanks. I think I might drop the rear sprite all together depending on how rendered I can polish the art. 1/4 right now is the most polished and is the closest to being presentable but still needs some work. The intent behind the UI/rear view sprite was to give the view a point of safety. Almost like these scary spirits you capture and use to defend yourself are the only thing between you and the enemy.
>>484317826wtf this is literally how I'm envisioning my ending I feel attacked
>>484317826>Don't do what these successful games did
>>484317625Ignore the dumb anime girl placeholder. Gonna show this despite how rough it is. The tough part about the overworld maps is the lighting being multiply layersIt effectively reduces my color variation due to the way multiply works. The good thing about it is that I can completely bullshit any sort of pixel gradients by using an airbrushed png for gradual shadows.
>>484317826my game ends with the villain looking off into the sunset after beating you
>>484318486anime girls are cute
>>484317826A sunset represents an ending, but an ending that's more a comfy "we've done a good day's work on the field, let's rest until tomorrow" than a doomed ending.Looking back on everything represents reaching the peak and reflecting on the experienceThe character you play as represents you having done the ordeal, the vastly greater environment space represents everything you've overcomeJust because it's cliché, doesn't mean you need to chimp out about an objectively good directive choice.
>>484313314>he got filtered by The Witness's ending
>>484313038It's like Disneyland, you end the experience on a crazy magical firework show and you feel delighted, suddenly standing in lines for hours, walking around in the heat while your feet hurt, spending way too much money on ridiculously overpriced food and merch, all that feels less important now,the pretty light show is the moment that will stick in your memory, that's your takeaway of the experience, it tricks your brain into thinking you had an amazing day.
>>484318951>cliché>objectively goodplease open a book
>>484318951>Chocolate represents that which is delightful. The haunted castle represents the allure of the unknown. The ghosts represent the imprint of the past. All of these things are important. However, don’t think for a moment that, because this game features ghosts in a haunted castle, it is an evil or negative game. On the contrary, I intend for this game to be positive, uplifting and life-affirming. However, if Stardew Valley mostly channeled the energy of the sun, Haunted Chocolatier channels the energy of the moon. Both are vital.
>>484316789>>484317053>>484317369>>484317625basedif anyone crabs you it's because they're an enginedev / artlet coder who doesn't understand that programming skills are a dime a dozen in gamedev and that art skills are the real treasureof course, art is cool and all but animation and effects are very important too, don't forget that.

>>484319254I don't know what half those words mean but I appreciate the words. I'm sure a good programmer is very important too.Speaking of programming the problem I'm running into is trying to have multiple classes run through event trees. The idea being that theres this beheaded warrior who evolves into one of two depending on which stat is higher (Sorta like hitmonchan and hitmonlee from pokemon)I think I got the symbolism down by ripping off some of Gustave Moreau's old sybomlism art but the actual functionality of it is rough. >>484319570I base my personality off Dark Souls, Berserk, Blasphemous and Vermis so yeah basically

>>484321597>it's the remake poster and his dark is good and bright saturation is bad take again
>>484321482Yeah it is and the y sorting is easier than you would think. Because its all RPG maker tiles I actually just export 48 x 48 grids throw down an isometric grid to draw over and the collisions are pretty easy to draw out using restriction tiles. Then using some layer plugins its actually quite easy to parallax what the player can move under. I used some 3d models of varying shapes and complexity to try as a base for a test run before committing to the isometric perspective.

Does this look like a good Tomato?
everything in life is just a constantly DAILY battle to not get depressed and to not quit. a missed day is a lost battle.and everything is depressing before you land your first hit. so it's a hard battle to fight.that's probably why we are so obsessed with successful people, because we admire their mental strength to keep going.we just know they are special and we aren't.i don't even think they try that hard and aren't even educated better or so.they are just one thing: consistent. they don't let depression take over their life. they don't quit.

Newbie godotter here. Any way I can get my character to travel faster when going down a slope but slower when traveling up them? I know normals play a role but I can't piece together the bigger picture.
>>484322124Why do you act like its not obvious as hell? You even posted the same Meds webm
>>484316789Looks really good with the UI. Hopefully the low character limit for the descriptions won't harm you.
>>484322445Yeah you just have to configure QPU's and then you're mario will run fast up slopes and slow done slopes

>>484322834Thanks, that makes it easier.
>>484322814What are QPUs?
>>484322694I don't think so. I'm trying to be vague with a lot of the descriptions as it is. Not really for the dark souls style of storytelling but rather a trial and error system.I'm basing a lot of the encounters off static enemies and stuff that require planning to deal with but your toolset is different each run with some thing staying the same. Basically imagine a nuzlocke ruleset in pokemon and you have that.I'm going as far as to even use Emerald Kaizo's first gym design as a planning point for a vertical slice concept. I'm not sure if anyone here has played it but its a gym that is quite difficult but you have certain guaranteed encounters that make it easier but not trivial. The rest of the design is based around trying to exhaust you of your early game tools in order to handicap the rest of your run.Obviously it won't be as stupid as EK is because that just wouldn't be fun for 99% of people.
How do you even begin to tackle the idea of designing an outdoor space imo

Feels like they just put you on other irrelevant games to claim they do shill your game, but it's on other stuff almost no one looks at.
I'm going to give the player the option to do something extremely racist, and if they do it, they'll get an achievement calling them racist and I will personally shame them online.

>>484297240>Its a bad genre for sales.> Dungeon Crawlers are a bad genre for salesTwo games made by FromSoft, who have been making the same game for decades: Practically no one knows about Kings Field, while everyone knows about Elden Ring.A poorly made and poorly advertised game sells poorly if at all, no matter how much time passes... And a well made and well advertised game should instantly sell very well if the audience is captured by it.If you inverted the quality and advertising of the two titles, we'd be talking about King's Field and not Elden Ring. It's really that simple.
;_; tfw I just remembered about the tomboy that seemed to be hitting on me but I didn't ask her out.She seemed like the type that would probably think it's cool if I'm a gamedev too. I didn't mention it at all.
>>484323576First time making a gif idk if it worked. Its super jank right now but this is where the movement is. I wish I kept the old map with collision files and parallaxing now since that didn't look too bad in terms of gameplay blockout desu.Enjoy the rough sketchy looking noclip jank>>484323967>>484324161Thanks. I'm sure you guys can be better than me if you draw a lot. It took me a really long time because I'm a slow learner.
>>484322445Anyone...?
>>484322268it's a little blocky, Anon. but it probably looks good in context
why is tomboy a thing but janegirl isn't a thing
>>484325309I've just got zero sense of aesthetic and no sense at all of UX. I've got no problem with networking or any of the other stuff people seem to dislike but I can barely even match my clothes. I know I'm gonna be screwed if I can't find a good aesthetic too, the biggest competitors to the game I'm working on have big titty anime waifu's and shit how am I supposed to beat that

Should help you if you can't imagine the type of environment you want.>>484325295Oh and at one point during the conversation I said>my familyIt's right around where her enthusiasm died off. Idk if she caught the part soon after where I mentioned my immediate family eg the one I was born into, not a wife I married and had kids with. Bro's I regret not asking her out, baggy sweats and tshirt that suggested there was no bra or panties underneath. I even saw her buttcrack at one point.>>484325309Kek'd irl at the movement, it reminds me of a game I played where you could only attack/move in 8 directions unless you use a controller. Was expecting something else with what you said previously, an actual fight animation. Art is still rather high quality here too, tho the character looks out of place graphically. Might be the style and or colors.
>>484325378Doesn't character body2d do this for you out of the box https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/classes/class_characterbody2d.html#class-characterbody2d-property-floor-constant-speed
>>484326006bitterness and old age
>>484326042Yeah like I said its super dumb looking right now. The character is literally an RPGmaker 8 directional template I got from online. All things considered its kind of fluid when its not in gif form.
>>484325048Millennials know King's Field and they are not no one. Zoomers will think it's too retro which it is. I do not blame anyone for not making a King's Field-like.
>>484325309>>484326212the style is on point though
>>484322832Damn. He mirrors my thoughts exactly.Pirates are scum, but the ones who stay quiet are acceptable. The problem is the pirates who distribute, the pirates who act proud or like they're doing a good deed, the pirates who feel people are "entitled" to play a game or that they're making developers better because piracy supposedly makes developers make better games. They'll come up with infinite levels of cope and the sad fact is, they are the majority and so they hold the majority opinion.Go anywhere else on 4chan and say you hate pirates and you'll be swarmed by people who ask "I've already spent 5 hours trying to get multiplayer to work but because it's a pirated copy it doesn't work, I reported it as a bug but wtf do I do I love this game but I can't play it" unironically bashing you for daring to say they should buy the game.The sad reality is you have to not engage with these people, because the more you engage with them the more it hurts you.The sadder reality is these same pirates are spending the money they didn't spend on better games, on gacha games asking them $20 a pull. They're not money savvy, they're not poor, they're just retarded or underaged. If you pirate a game and stay quiet, you cause virtually no damage. If you pirate a game and distribute it, you actively harm the developer for no reason other than to earn anonymous street cred from faggots.

>>484326006>>484326134Less microplastics at the top of mountains.
>>484326308Efforts against piracy would be better spent on making the games better and less people would be pirating them.
>>484326804and no seed oils
>>484326854Also you can lock it a bit depending on steam achievements.
>>484326308>pirates>same people who spend money on gachalmao nopeople who spend money on gacha are too retarded to pirate anything
>>484326932you telling me a shrimp fried these microplastics in seed oils?
>>484326854This is conjecture spoken by those pirates that try to say they're doing something good.Yes, that effort would be better spent on making games better. However, because pirates will always pirate regardless of how good a game is, and purchasers will always purchase a game regardless of how bad a game is, with little leeway between it (I don't know how big or small that leeway is, again we're all talking conjecture here) it doesn't make piracy more morally acceptable in any way.You know what people did instead of using DRM? They started making always online games. They started making games with microtransactions that you need to connect to a server for. They started making mobile games that run ads. Everyone complains about games becoming shittier like this but face reality and realize that the reason games are becoming shittier is so that people can't pirate it. Sure, you can run a private server, but good job convincing all your friends to go there or convincing the average joe to run a private server.
It's over.
>>484327238If pirates always pirate then why fight against piracy? Isn't it a pointless battle? Your efforts would be better spent trying to get people who didn't buy or pirate your game to buy it and you achieve that by making it a better game.
>>484326932True
>>484326308R*ddit-fags seem to have that mindset. One second they screech how pirating is bad and illegal, but the moment you say something that they hate they flip and screech that they will pirate your game and you deserve it like it's no crime, fair is fair because you annoyed them. Kek.
i'm nodevving at the speed of light
>>484327238Perfect, a few of my game ideas are basically unpirateable because the vast majority aren't going to join some literal who pirates server due to the potential risks and not even having your character there to transfer to the true servers. Jack up the prices too for how ungrateful so many gamers are, demanding 100 hours gameplay and multiplayer for $10 while paying $20 for fastfood devoured in under an hour
>>484327245i get itbecause it's a cult of fat guys
>>484326308You are in an endless argument. Is a game worth paying for? Is there such a thing as a game shit so exploitative think loot boxes and gatcha and if it can be pirated someone should and spread it far and wide.Basically it depends on the game. Pirated is like buying its both good and bad depending on the game.Both the system and the consumer are fucked. The system exploits and the consumer feeds cancerous garbage.
>>484327363Because I just said that people are fighting piracy.By making shittier games that you can't pirate.Elden Ring does so much worse financially than gachaslop does.
>>484326804>>484326932it's like i'm really on /pol/ or hackernews
>>484327861>Because I just said that people are fighting piracy.Yeah but why if like you say pirates pirate no matter what. Why do you assume that people go on to play gacha slop because they can't pirate it? That's not how it works. They're targeting someone who can be exploited with gacha. I don't think someone who isn't willing to buy games would spend money on gacha.Big publishers pivoted towards GAAS and MTX because they can extract more money from a single game with little extra work. They're doing it to raise the price tag of a game, not to fight pirates.
>>484326054Doesnt seem to do the trick
How do I into procedural animation? I want to make a game with dynamic armour denting
>>484328396wake up sheep
anon also failed to consider the subset of people who use piracy as a means of testing out a game to see if they want to purchase itsometimes I'll go and buy a game straight away once I'm convinced by playing it pirated and even if I don't enjoy it that much to immediately buy it I still tend to put it on my wishlist and pick it up in a saleof course many games are so bad that I don't buy them but had I bought them I would've refunded them because they were bad so it doesn't matter for the dev at that point
this has been my saving grace
>>484328664>I don't think someone who isn't willing to buy games would spend money on gacha.Okay, offer someone an apple. They can buy it for $1 or $0. What do you think they'll choose? Usually they'll go for the $0.Now offer someone an orange. They can buy it for $1. Are they going to say "but I can get an apple for $0 why would I ever buy an orange?" no, that's not how this works.There are many different reasons for pirating and I can guarantee you that some percentage of those pirates can and will pay for things if you force them to. Just because a pirate is pirating games it doesn't mean that they never buy luxury items, in fact, it suggests they have a weak will and can't simply choose to "not" play a game, they'd rather pirate a game than not play it.Now apply that to gacha. They can simply "not" buy the microtransaction but their weak will means they'll probably do it anyway. Other reasons for pirating such as being too young to have a card or being genuinely poor don't apply but there are people out there who are just faggots who will pirate no matter how good the game is.
>>484329292What am I looking at
>>484329376>Okay, offer someone an apple. They can buy it for $1 or $0. What do you think they'll choose? Usually they'll go for the $0.>Now offer someone an orange. They can buy it for $1.

>>484329085That's what demos are for. Demos are making a resurgence and are honestly great, I've started playing a lot of indie demos and I've been wishlisting many of them too.It doesn't solve the whole problem but I would encourage devs to provide a demo if they can. I noticed Little Locked Rooms dev only provided a demo on itch.io and not on steam, unless that changed.
>>484329461But why
>>484329440ok bokusimp
>>484327245font too thin
>>484329376>but there are people out there who are just faggots who will pirate no matter how good the game is.And those people do it because they don't wanna pay for games. They won't buy your game if you make it some always online gacha hellhole. They'll just play something else.For me I'm more likely to buy a game if it doesn't have gacha, DLC, season pass or any of that shit. Some games I pirate out of spite because their monetization models are garbage like Total War Warhammer or Crusader Kings. No I won't buy your 15 DLCs to play the game as it was meant to be played.
>Attempting to make an Ace Combat-style dog-fighting AI that plays by all the same rules as the player's aircraft.So how difficult have I just made my life? Seems like it all it needs to do is try to get the player's six-o'-clock using roll and pitch.

Ericbros how do we fix the Jon menace in these threads? Blowposting is gaining too much traction. It doesn't help that he runs his mouth 24/7 while Eric only blesses the internet with his presence very sporadically.
>>484329934Literally so simple lol
>>484329921You might be immune to it but the average player is going to see all their friends getting absorbed by, I don't know, Genshin Impact and they'll try it out. Even autists get drawn into these things and autists are known for being tough customers for advertising, or pirating shit.The statistics don't lie. Hoyo games are doing tremendously well, moreso than games that only sell the game once and never have any microtransactions. I'm sure someone has a better graph than this 7 year old ancient piece of shit graph to prove it.
>>484329638steam encouraging indies to do demos has been great and it has replaced a lot of my pirating to try out a game
>motivation to gamedev: near zero>motivation to write Touhou Fanfiction: MaximumWhat is wrong with me?
>>484330526You're making a Touhou game now.
>>484330430>the average player is going to see all their friends getting absorbed by, I don't know, Genshin Impact and they'll try it outThose sorts of people also buy the newest CODslop or whatever it is that their friend group gets into.Statistics don't tell the full story. It just tells you that most gamers are retarded sheep who will get fooled into that. They do what the marketing tells them to do.
>>484330479I rarely pirate games nowadays (especially because I'm earning money now) but demos are still good because>see someone play cool game>pause 6 seconds in to go check the game out because I'd rather see for myself>if there's a demo, I'll play it and wishlist it>if there's no demo, I'm unlikely to buy it right away, may be hesitant, might wishlist and wait for sale, might just watch other guy play itIt works really well for interactive games that are better to play in person than to watch someone play it. Dome Romantik (now Dome Defender) is a good example, I did all of the above and then finally bought the game when it released. Balatro too. Those sorts of games benefit greatly from demos.
>>484328739I don't know what your code looks like but are you using characterbody2d's move_and_slide method?
>>484330260Jon is a lolcow, Blowposting just makes Eric look better in comparison
>>484330718Most gamers are retarded sheep but even retarded sheep can pirate nowadays because pirates are trying to make it easier and easier to pirate. Often it's even easier than buying the game legitimately.That's the problem. The easier pirating is, the more it fucks over good honest gamedevs. If pirating were difficult and dangerous, only the people who really needed to pirate the game would do it.
Pirating is not a real problem. There's no scarcity for digital goods, so in reality digital sales are more similar to donations than sales of real world goods
>>484331062Buying a game on steam is way easier than pirating it.
>>484331342Steam is in a better position because it has existing reputation and people have their bank info already docked, but if someone didn't already own steam then it would be harder to buy the game off of steam.To buy a game off DLsite, you first need to navigate the site until you find a link to an external site that sells point cards for DLsite.>Then, you need to purchase points, which means putting your bank info into some dubious website.>Then, you need to go back to DLsite and find the page to redeem it.This is partially because of legal reasons, they can't allow you to use your card directly on the site if you aren't in Japan.To get the game off of a pirate site, you search [Game Name] [Pirate Site].>Click the first link.>Click one of the download links on the first post on that page. You may have to click on a free download option.Done.
>>484331512Maybe japs should get with the times.
>>484330260how about you post progress instead of worrying about which gamedev celeb is currently getting their dick sucked
>>484331772But they can't shorten the process, you have to do it that way for legal reasons. You then have to purchase and download the game with those points.
>>484330069AI could make mistakes. I.e. accidentally bank 15 degrees too far to match the player, and he has to correct, which takes time. Or, like in Ace Combat, the AI often does not use the full maneuverability of their aircraft.>>484330332You're probably correct unironically. I'm probably over-complicating it in my mind.

>>484331772visa and mastercard don't want you to have fun
>>484332157I would gladly give up my humanity to be a vampire. Just sit at home all day gamedeving and investing.
>>484332157if you can't finish your game within 10 years, you're unironically never gonna make it
>>484332162I also said that the same applies to steam. If someone doesn't have steam, it's actually easier to pirate the game than to download steam, attach your bank info and do all of that. Especially if steam doesn't sell it in your region, or has difficulties with your banks.Want to use a site other than steam which takes 30% of your profits? Great, now even more people will pirate you because they aren't sure if they should trust this "itch.io" site that gets used by account hacking bots.

>>484347474What part in particular are you struggling with, anon? What are you trying to make?
things i feel i gotta do (but probably wont) if i want to make this game good:- start the game with a mystery, intrigue, something that makes the player want to reach the end to resolve some question- levels should be connected, explorable, player should feel like theyre making the choice on what to tackle next, on their own time. the player should be playing the game, not the other way around. - each level should introduce some new mechanic, or combination of mechanics forming a novel new challenge to solve. player should explore the level and have to figure out potential ways to solve it.- music, ambience. beautiful intriguing world

if i had a gamedev partner we could work on our game together together
>>484348507Godot?
to all nodevs, honest advice: focus on a single craft, it'll motivate you much more and cure your depression. you aren't built for multi-disciplinary hobbies.
>>484348536yeah
>>484348623I'm a newbie that can't do art and can only code monkey if that's fine with you.
>>484348483But drawing items is the only part of video game development I even enjoy anymore. Why would you use AI to remove that?Here is my items including some fruits and vegetables.
>>484293139>>484345815How do you handles stairs and slopes?
>>484348791in the future people will even let ai play their games. they dont want to do anything anymore than sitting around and rotting away while watching everything happen passively
>>484348716show me something you have worked on
>>484348791that's not what I built it for, that's a lot of good stuff. I do have fun drawing and such. I don't want to make assets, I just like the mathematical aspect
>>484289428Thinking about the best way to fit in further floors.There will be 17 floors in total.My options after the list reaches more than 10 floors:a) shrink the size of the text of the floors in two times (to the size of the names of difficulties and game modes)pros - everything fits at oncecons - floors will not stand out so much against the other stuff, will have to squeeze faction banners as wellb) make two "pages", the list 1-10, at the top an arrow to flip to 11-17 and back again on the same principlepros - floors stand out, no need to squeeze bannerscons - for some reason I find the idea of scrolling through the floors shittyc) make a scrolling and scroll through floors with the wheel/buttonspros - not as shitty as "b" optioncons - I'm too lazy to do it that way, it is still scrolling
>>484348292Anything that's just a flat color or that you just want to use a shader for, should be a ColorRect.Any complex geometry (like the "tear" behind the Settings header in my previous screenshot) should be a TextureRect or a TextureButton, depending on whether it should be clickable/hoverable or not.Anything that's just a box which might need an outline, should be a themed panel; unless it needs to be clickable in which case you use a themed Button.You can also get away with using a themed panel for most things. Panels in general are very flexible.
>>484349265I think C is best, but if you don't want to do C. I'm totally okay with B. A destroys hierarchal structure in my opinion.
>>484348998I don't have much in terms of a gameplay loop. Just been working strictly on player movement. Right now I am fiddling with stairs and slopes but the implementation I have for stairs is messing with the latter.
The main and frankly only reason why the majority of the companies that made the best PC games of 1998-2003 went out of business isn't because the games were unpopular - it's because piracy is almost exclusively a PC issue. We lost some of the best companies on God's green earth while consoleshit studios remained stable for decades. PC really is the best gaming system in existence, it's just that it suffered a series of pretty heavy blows because of that and it couldn't keep recovering
>>484349824welp... you're much better than me at making a game... i can't team up with you
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFjuh7uOeD0damn I wanna git gud
>>484349879I only started a month ago. I know what I want to do but only 50% sure on how to do it.
>>484349568Yeah, totally agree, just tried A), it was absolutely disgusting.
>>484349265your game looks like shit. You might wanna look into that :)
>>484350116What would you improve to make it better?
>>484349323Thanks, this is exactly the kind of best practices I needed to get started
>>484349824>those arm jointsbing "deformation topology"
>>484335976Taxation is a good thing. You have the privilege to host your shitty game on Steam and you still complain?
>>484345815Damn this looks good. Are you using Cogito by any chance?
i want some generic fucking 2d top down RPG tilesets for freehow is it so hard to find something that isnt just like 30 sprites that make up one specific building?has nobody compiled a bunch of cohesive generic tilesets into one big pack somewhere? i remember when i pirated rpg maker 20 years ago it would have an infinite amount of tiles included that you could seemingly use to create anything. i just want to replicate that feeling for non-RPG-maker engines
>>484351342So if steam ever decides to remove your game for any reason, what do you do?That's right, eat shit. Years of hard work are now down the drain. You've got to make your own store or convince players to somehow use, I don't know, GoG if you can get on there.Don't worry about that though, Gaben is surely too kind to ever do that to you. Right?
>>484351898be the change you want to see
>>484332160This one >>>/jp/47056866 for instance
>>484351989if i could do art myself i wouldnt have this problemare there really no big bundles available for free? or piratable (i promise i will pay if i ever release my game)
>mfw i find a major bug in my custom engine
>>484352739my engine (godot) has no bugs
My game doesn't work. It's too complicated and not fun. At this rate I'll have to simplify it into a VS-like...
>>484352739That just adds to the soul
>>484343482Finally, a Paper Mario: Splash Star-like.
>>484305295>Dreams of Nortubels departedWtf
>>484313391There isn't a character creator in my game.
>>484305295wow the two worst agdg games in the same picture. How fitting
How did you anons handle going up and down stairs in Godot?My brain is gonna break. I tried an implementation and it looked like it worked nicely but then there was an issue of my character snapping if I decided to turn left or right while going up stairs. Also the code considered slopes as stairs and I could not figure out how to fix that. This prevented me from being able to travel up slopes slowly and travel down slopes at an elevated speed.
>>484354162not enough info, post a gif of the problem
>>484354162raycast and use the normals from the hits
>creates store page in 2022>no updates since then>nooooo! You stole my heckin' idea!!!
>>484353325Sarah is also the first guest character in Nortubel.I also made it so each guest character has a subtle/specific gameplay gimmick.
>>484354965I don't get itdon't they sell stock assets?if someone sells your assets as-is then yeah, get fucked, it's allowed

if i ever make it, i'll immediately buy an island and start brandomaxxing
>>484356124*I see they "updated the art" on the steam page to look different. before they were a carbon copy. It might be legal, but kenny has every right to complain here, and others to shun the copycat.
>>484356124You don't get to own an idea for 2 years just because you made a Steam page. You snooze you lose.
>>484356124>game is a flop>just make it again but steal the art style from the free assets guy
>>484355917The copy doesn't use any of Kennys assets
>>484356379>an ideathe UI, sound, animation, level design, background art etc, everything they could copy they did. more than an idea.
>>484356829That's all an idea until the game is released.
reworked daily inventory generation to use item displays instead of just a random selection
>>484356668>hacktichack indeed. anyone defending this, post your game, oh you don't have one do you? kek
I've found the right medicine to treat my eye herpes after like five weeks of hell, and I am healing and regaining power. I've got a new person doing 3d models who should be better. I have new inspirations and I'm feeling the fucking desire to get back into the battle. I think its shaping up to be a Shanghai Summer.
>>484354965desperately trying to recreate the attention that dire decks got. do not post on twitter or your mind will be warped like this
>>484356882gosh! read the room!:p
>>484356917>you don't have a game my game got stolen too
>>484293280Polish people produce the best games from the old world.
>>484357062Mojito isn't a direct 1:1 clone though
>>484356881no that's execution.
>>484356974>eye herpesStop eating ass
>>484357186Execution only exists once the game is released. Until then it is a figment of the developer's imagination.
>>484295404Man, I preffered the other guyhttps://arch.b4k.co/vg/thread/403089821/#403104884
>>484357391same. he said he was getting reported for advertising so he stopped
>>484357256Even granting that weird statement, he had a demo, so the execution existed.
>>484356882Are you making an animal crossing clone? Because this is very similar to animal crossing.
I'm gonna be straight with you lads, I did the build, light is fucked but I'm gonna ship it like this3 damn hours, I need to build this shit during the night
>>484357568Proof he had the demo? It isn't up on Steam?
>>484357605yes
>>484357460No, he said the series got higher priority over his game so he had to stop
>>484356991Just tried dire decks and it's a great concept that really needed expanding upon. I don't blame someone for stealing it but they could really do with more than just stealing the assets and everything.
maybe I should ask my government for an arts and media grant...
i have no style and all my assets look like they were made by several different retarded children
>>484357679Well that's a very good thing, Nintendo really went too far with the price and the exclusives and there needs to be an alternative.New Horizon was basically an half empty pre- alpha.
>>484357628
>>484358096Looks fake to me.
>>484358041i'm already ahead
>>484357391And almost always I would point out the flaws in their posts, because his examples of "good games that failed" were either>they didn't actually fail>it's a game ported from a different platform, even if it didn't do well on steam it likely did well on its intended platform>it's shit>it's just a worse version of another gameamong other things. I don't think they posted recently released games but "the game just released you dipshit" is a common response to anons posting games.I might've found maybe one game they've posted that might've maybe deserved success, I can't remember.
>>484358148Your post looks fake
>>484354965I dont get it, how is this copying? He made a game using these assets, but where is the so called game from Kenny? That guy has really become vocal these last few years in a negative way.
>>484343482nice one!is it gonna be random idle animation or more of "press button for emote"?
>>484358267>it's a game ported from a different platform, even if it didn't do well on steam it likely did well on its intended platformif it's good enough to do well on one platform but fails on Steam, then it's a good game that failed
>>484337224>'unescape>mmo server.Simple as.
>>484358267>they didn't actually failall of the games had less than 100 reviews, that sounds pretty reasonable. Also most of the games had huge discounts so that thing alone could point out that the devs were running out of money
I watched a pseudoregalia video someone linked here ONCE, and now youtube is bombarding me every single day with a new video about some youtuber talking about how good of an indie gem Pseudoregalia is, I have literally seen 12 videos by this point. Is it really such a masterpiece that it needs to be covered by all streamers?
>>484354965>>484356124If someone makes it to market faster than you copying your idea then it was your fault for being slow.
>>484359082its an okay game. they're just furfags
>>484358394>He made a game using these assetshe didn't use kennys assets
>>484359082I should have made the protagonist of my game a sexy furry girl.... I'm so fucking stupid...
>>484359151post your game
if your just starting out dont do art first, its more enjoyable for sure but you need to know your capabilities on what you can actually make
>>484359307No because I'm a slow developer and you'll steal my idea.
>>484358267I bought Worlds thanks to the guy and I still have couple of other games on my wishlist, show some respect
>>484359082Is this game even challenging? What I'm noticing is people just looking for a new idea regardless of challenge/balance.
>>484359082Other examples. And of course every video puts the main character in the thumbnail. I guess it's a pretty iconic design which helps with word of mouth?

Nothin' like a big black cup to wake you up in the morning.
>>484359701>Animation style>3D metroidvania with emphasis on movement (good for speedrunning autist)>Anthropomorphic protagThose are the hooks of the game imo
>>484359681but i didn't say "success" can only be measured in steam reviews
>>484359681I wonder how many copies Doom has sold since release across every platform combined.
>>484358903I can't remember specific examples but if a lazy 1 month asset flip gets 100 reviews that's an easy successalso, maybe the devs have sales because they just want more people to play their game?

>>484361059Good luck, I'm jealous of you Europoos sometimes. I need $20,000 a year bare minimum, and that would require slashing all of my living expenses as low as they can possibly go.
>>484360767yeah look how hard it FAILED it had to be removed from steam, maybe because the devs tried to get around the 30% gamedev tax

>>484361134Bethesda bought the rights and promptly took down all doom versions from the Id banner, rebrandec it and are now selling it with their launcher. FIrst Doom has more than 15k reviews todayhttps://store.steampowered.com/bundle/27490/DOOM_Classic_Bundle/Additionally you must be out of your mind to compare sales of a game that was released more than 10 years before Steam even existed. Boomers bought that game years ago. They didn't need Steam. They might rebuy it years later out of nostalgia but definitely not everyone and again they wouldn't be compelled to write a review for it. Your arguments are misguided and you're arguing in a bad faith. Seek help.
>>484362756Did you fail to read the post chain? The irony went right over your headanon is classifying any game that could have sold millions, if it didn't get enough reviews on steam, a failure.
>>484351536I'm aware of it and sent it to the imsim devs I know that use godot. Peri's stuck in unitinu and most of the systems are made by us, with few exceptions, like the conversation/dialog database.>>484348882I mainly let the unitinu character controller handle that. When stairs are to steep for it to handle, we just add an invisible collider or make the stairs parallax-based.. That's less fun tho, because it screws with the leg IK.
