My hypothesis worked. This is a huge breakthrough in finetuning different parts of the chunk in a more granular way. Basically, way more fine tuned caverns. Density functions piecewise in the chunk.Praise be to the King Jesus Christ.
I've spent 60 years on this capsule for the itch demo.

Im starting my first ever game what words of wisdom does /agdg/ have for me for a solo dev about to start following a youtube guide on unity today
>>484442884Nothing, you're on the right track.
>>484442884Stop and find something better. You see that video thinking that everything will be so easy but you are not seeing all the things you must to learn to actually make a good game.
>>484443184>but you are not seeing all the things you must to learn to actually make a good game.I might as well learn if I sink or swim at game design. Theres nothing wrong with failing horribly at something, at least you tried.
>>484442279based
>>484442884Crabs need to get out. I can't believe the previous two posters almost let you pick up Unity. Unity is dead in the water. We do not use it here. We don't condone it. Godot would be a better choice. In the future, Bevy when it gets to a better state. Right now, Godot is the best, second to Unreal.
>>484442818that means that daggerfalldwarffortresslikedev is based
Is there resources out there that don't require going through tutorials?
>>484442884Don't listen to the Godot shills that spend all their time shilling it online when the best it has held up for games is Cruelty Squad.
>no redhead 3d artist gf that's covered in freckles and has a thick french accent
Documentation, books
>>484442884If you don't have prior experience with programming look up some programming 101 course online and go through it, doing exercises on the way to learn the basics before you dive into Unity. A bunch of universities have their classes for free online so it shouldn't be hard to find one. Bonus if that course is in c# so you learn its syntax at the same time.>>484443850>Crabs need to get out.>proceeds to crab

Was away for a long weekend, back on my dev bullshit. The face painting progress. Really pleased with the first finalized face, although I'll probably make some small changes in a later pass.
>>484444104Whats with the ginger girl obsession lately?
>>484444104I feel you bro, I want the same exact thing ( not so much freckles though tbqh). But she also has to say "Thoughever", "Thoughbeit" , and "Thougheverbeit".
>>484444467very nice sir many blessings from Bengaluru
>>484443990For Unity you can learn a lot just reading the manual and trying that stuff in the engine. I don't know if other engines have as good resources to do that.
Asterigos, but better.
I'm sorry to the bald anons I apparently offended, I promise there's nothing wrong with losing your hair. I'm sure you're still very handsome.>>484444536There's a gamedev youtuber who's a super cute ginger girl with freckles. Probably why.

I wish ginger girls were real bros...

AAHHHHH STOP FUCKING TALKING ABOUT GINGER GIRLS I LITERALLY JUST BROKE UP WITH MY GINGER GF I WAS PLANNING ON MARRYING 2 DAYS AGOI DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE OR HOW YOU KNEW THIS BUT PLEASE STOP TORMENTING ME I'M SUFFERING ENOUGH
>>484445472to talk about fish with
YIIK actually has a good art style. Like the only reason people hate it is the gameplay and writing right? So I can take this art style for my game just fine?
>>484445898anon your "gf" wasn't real
i feel like a retard. if i'd spend all day reading books instead of trying to find video tutorials i'd probably already be a pro. you are what you eat (read)
>>484446061>reading>watching>not just programmingNGMI
>>484445947the art style is okay the designs are the worst kind of sjoimale trash
>>484445947Not all of the characters are drawn great and the entire battles with their animations should be scratched, but, sure. That could work if you have the art skills.
>>484445947Even when the game first came out and was being relentlessly mocked everywhere on the internet, most people claimed to like the art.
>>484445554I used facebuilder with some actress reference photos to get the very base face on, then edited it to change the eyes, lips, add freckles, blush, and so on. Then used a bunch of reference photos for the hair and skin details and all to draw as a stencil, and a lot of smearing to blend everything together then stenciling over it again lining up the strands of hair and details. Took forever to find the proper workflow, but I finally ended up taking inspiration from Max Payne 2's models.Tomorrow we start the other playable character's face.
>>484446248Oh that's pretty cool. I gotta try facebuilder.
>>484446391I tried just drawing raw onto a blank head base mesh I had for a while, but without getting the geometry kinda right it never looked how I wanted. Facebuilder is kino for sure.
https://www.artstation.com/artwork/Eag3gNAre these good capsules? Do you think these games did well?
Got some ammo types in the inventory, and linked up the ammo in the inventory, to the ammo on the right hand side, with the ammo box that you were drawing the bullets from. From 20, to 10 after reloading, and to the ammo box disappearing in the inventory after theres no more bullets to reload.With that said, I wont be making demo day since I took too long with the inventory and not long enough with actual content.
>>484446791Always love your progress anon. I think that inventory splitting the screen open thing is so cool every time I see it. If you juice that up well that's gonna be iconic.
>>484446791I like the aesthetic and the physics. Very impressive.

You are remembering to work on that enemy AI, aren't you anon?
>>484447689this is vintage meme
>>484444859You've gotten off easy. I had gotten banned for three days because I was feeling pretty bad thinking of kms. Previous day people were very supportive, the next day I made a follow up post but got banned. I don't have family and friends already, so this is the only place I participate in on the internet. Thought at least people have an idea of what each other are going through during the dev process. Can't have that either apparently.Meanwhile, gore, eric, runa spammers keep spamming.
nta but just practicing capsule art using his game.Rushed the font, those can take hours to find the right one.
>>484448024How the fuck do you guys create capsule art so fast? I know I'm an artlet, but you fuckers are beasts of nature.
>>484447689Games literally used to be like this. And it was fun.
>>484448024*free to play isn't intentional
>>484447812It's good to remember the past now and then.
prolly gonna work on sfx until DD starts, since i have practically zero rn.
>>484446732lol, lorne is marnixbro slop
>>484446732They all look good to me. I would play all of these games. Why can't my capsule arts look this good?
>>484448074well that was probably faster than average to paint since it's 90% clouds/explosions(which are just angry clouds) I have painted a lot of clouds in my time.
>>484446732what is it that makes capsule art so homogenizedthis looks like a parody of 90% of the capsule arts you see on steam

>>484447689I remember this>bad AI? it's a feature!
>>484445947Needs some work but it's a pretty solid base I'd say. The main issue is what it was used to convey, the character designs kinda sucked and the environments where uninteresting.
I solved my panic attack after getting my meds, by telling myself I don't need to be better than AAA teams, and only be better than kaliina, and that I only need to finish fast and quick and dirty, without worrying about getting it perfect, and that I only need to start releasing games that are 1% and just make 100 games more.Excellence comes from practice and practice comes from quantity.
>>484448637Because those are all created by the same person. Check the text.

>>484448024Is the bottom made by you? Roll the plane sideways a bit so that you can see the plane silhouette of the wings to make it immediately obvious that it is a plane.
>>484449620How do you feel about orblikes?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97b5iE9YiNw
lol how is this legal
>>484450101he is correctdiablo has always been an obfuscated gacha gameexcept instead of spending money on spins, you spend your time on dungeon runs
>>484450103capsule art =/= game
>>484449260Here's the terrifying reality; we've never actually seen him when he's not taking his meds.
>>484450103why would it be illegal?
>>484449620how many jhannas have you accessed today?
>>484450103This is literally how games from the 80s and 90s looked on the cover and you knew the game was 8/16 bit.
>>484442884Start with a rock paper scissors game. It has the most basic logic and art. This way you can teach yourself how to do the basic game loop. Game starts, runs, ends, saves, restarts, loads etc.
>>484450103>lol how is this legal
>>484450476vagueness and sidetracking is jon's mastery.
>>484450261>instead of buying your way through the game>you spend your time on gameplayThis is literally how all games work.
I changed the color of pretty much everything and also made a hub world to select levels and display scores. I'm really happy with how this is turning out.Now I just need to write some music and add some sounds and I'll have something for Demo Day.
>>484450748you don't know what gacha games areyou don't know how they workyou don't know how popular they areyou don't know why people play themyou don't know how fundamentally similar they are to orblikes
>>484450787Why can't I be this good at art? This looks like pure soul.
>>484450261>>484450748Excuse me, all games that aren't cash shop or gacha slop.
>>484450702sounds like you're describing jordan peterson
>>484450476This was discussed before. The guy takes a break and goes on a vacation. After months of nonstop work, finally his, body, brain relaxes for a while. And he treats it as a revolutionary experience. No Jon, you just had a vacation and got some rest.
>>484446732No, not for the price he charges. Nor most of the artists I've typically found. They all have some rather high prices for the quality they offer. Ranging from $300 on something so simple that you'll probably trash it and make it yourself later to as much as $2000+ but you'll probably be highly critical on the quality for the price.>>484448705>Hire a fucking JP porn artist or something seriously the yen isn't very strong against the dollarNta but where do I find them. The only steam capsule artists I'm finding are North/South Americans with rip off prices to quality ratios. One artist was like $300 but the capsule is so underwhelming that I'd rather save that money. Another was charging like $2k+ but with quality not high enough to warrant the price, maybe if it was $500 max. Then there's that guy whose art you saw above, his prices are also too high for what he brings to the table.
>>484450874I don't get how paying money to roll gacha relates to grinding loot in a loot grinding game. Gacha isn't gameplay. Yeah I don't know why people play them because I don't understand how an individual can be so fucking lobotomized to fall for that scam.
>>484450787This looks great
>>484450945I'd agree with the side tracking but just a little bit. When people put videos of him, they sometimes put clickbait or unrelated titles. Meanwhile it's just a moment taken from his hour long speech, where he doesn't specifically talk about the subject of video's title, just touches the subject for a while.But no he is not vague at all. Being precise is his thing. He chooses his words, sentences very carefully.
>>484451167What's hard to understand about it? The game limits your progress by the gacha system. You could use the same character/armor/weapon you got from the beginning, but you won't be able to pass a certain point in the story. The only way is to roll the gacha which requires money except not really because the game will pay you to play by gifting you free roll of the gacha which is mind control, but it works because players think they outsmart the system by playing for free or without paying.
My game I made in two weeks got frontpaged on Newgrounds
>>484451641What the fuck are these capsules? You're telling me these are the featured games on newgrounds?
>>484449260>>484450318He might be harmless but remember, even a third world country considers him to be unsalvagably braindamaged.
When I first heard the term gacha game I thought people were making fun of hose types of game. As in gacha -> gotcha -> got you -> tricked you.
>>484450103Dumb zoomer
Now what.
>>484451076I'm currently working with a certain JP porn artist but I've had to navigate the JP version of patreon and talk to them in Japanesealso, the secret is they only draw porn anyway good luck to get them doing capsule artskeb is a really nice idea in concept if you wanted art like that, its like a higher quality fiverrr, except>no commercial works>absolutely zero communication or fixes allowedso you know what? I'd like to know how you're supposed to get in touch, too, because clearly monster girl quest and other collaboration games had to organise somehow. Unironically, I think they may be meeting up at comiket and forming circles there and communicating over LINE or e-mail.
>>484450050yeah, I just grabbed the plane from one of his screenshots, trying to make the capsule art match the game orientation. rolling would look good, perhaps lighting the plane up a bit from below from a search-light could help too.
>>484447626if your life sucks then it's not depression, that's your brain being rational
>>484450103>no user reviewsthat's what happens when your capsule art doesn't match your gamepeople click expecting a high quality and when they get this, they immediately leave.>but it's a reference for how old game covers are!reference old game covers by only selling your game as physical copies in store, let's see how that works out for you.
Dealing with artists is so exhausting. Why do they ask be paid by hour? I'd much rather pay set prices for things I commission. I'm not paying an artist $600 because apparently it took them two gazillion hours to draw a rectangle. Musicians are bros, though.
>>484450103it's like a book cover-art. sets the mood etc. Who is the Frazetta of capsule art?
>>484452273Being paid by hour is the most fair form of payment, what are you talking about? Your assumptions are what's bad here. You know you don't have to pay if they don't deliver what you want right? That's what the contract binding is for.
no bald, no kpop, no pity, only progressposts and tranime
>>484445402$6 million and counting for two unrealbros fresh out of high school.
>>484452867>Being paid by hour is the most fair form of payment, what are you talking about?Not him but it is objectively not. There is no incentive to finish work when you are hourly. In any job where there are deliverables payment by delivery is infinitely better. It means the obligation is on the creator to be fast, efficient and effective instead of wanking off for 0.9hr and doing a piece in 0.1hr then charging for an hour.
>>484452867>You know you don't have to pay if they don't deliver what you want right? That implies, granted if they deliver the exact thing agreed upon, they can stretch the delivery time past the actual completion for as long as they feel like (and I'll be the asshole).
>>484451641Nice anon! Much to improve with the game though. I'm honestly surprised it got almost 4 stars. Everything I want to say has probably already been said in the reviews you got.
>>484451971is this a cave story-like?
>>484450103
>>484451450Except just about all diablolikes are completeable with the loot you find along the way. You're not forced to grind to progress unless it's garbage like modern PoE and even then it only applies to very late game optional tryhard modes.Also finding loot is core to the games. Gachashit could have gacha torn out and what they have remaining is the same shit game. Take loot away from Diablo and you turn it into some different game.
>>484448024kek i didn't read it but thought it said "MY DOOMED GAME">>484444859kek that image is ontopic though. not the first on topic image i saw getting a ban. the other one, in a different general, was extremely on topic, it was literally a character from the game. nope 3 day ban>>484450507this.

This didn't come out like I drew it out. But I made a quick model for a tomboy idea. Probably should make a new version.
>>484450103lol how is this legal
>>484448024Over 9000 hours in paint.
I wish I had a game designer to come up with ideas for my game
>>484455265It's like Skyrim and Minecraft, but together.
>>484455310isn't that just minecraft
>>484455390Minecraft doesn't have waifu thoughbeit?
>>484455263Same problem as the first capsule art, doesn't represent the game well. also AI slop is a turn off for many, using AI limits your audience
>>484455862The stupid hack, workaround and bad idea is using a pre-made engine instead of becoming an enginedev.
is this a good header capsule composition? it feels fairly balanced but I'm not sure if it's too simple or not.
>>484452273>>484452867>>484454018being paid by the hour when you have no idea when they're even working is literally a scam
>>484454375Not really I've never played that game but it doesn't matter I already shelved it in my abandoned folder.

I'll work on my game, in a bit.
I can't figure out stairs. Is there just a good stairs handler out there for godot?
>>484447689It's shit and I'm not refactoring that much code this far into development.
>>484456690ramps, sir. ramps.
>>484455972worked for pseudoregalia
>>484455745>>484456363Capsule art often doesn't visually represent the gameplay and it doesn't matter.
>>484456870I need the stair stepping stuff to work so I can sleep. I tried out this guys implementation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tb-R3l0SQdc and it just breaks whenever I try going horizontal on stairs or slopes. Works fine in his own project though.
what do you think about the Kenney "drama"?
>>484455972maybe try more dynamic?
>>484457249if any of the assets used by the copycat was original and not for public use by Kenney then it's validotherwise, it's just a bit rude.
>>484457098in luftrausers case, it was popular before it ever got capsule art. plus being published by DD doesn't hurt.
>>484457283maybe yeah, the title feels a little off in your sketch but it's definitely more visually interesting. thanks for the artmogging anon!
>>484457420*and made by Vlambeer
i look like i will never be a game developer
Can't wait to submit my game to DD (Devolver Digital)
>>484455173Yeah I'm going to have to add a lot more polygons and figure out better face textures.
>>484446732Why do many of them have this "look" that feels idk like they're similar to each other? It's not just this guy, I'm seeing others do the same exact styling.
>>484456363it doesn't have to represent the gameplay, but not being misleading is a plus.

>>484458097Why is that "anon..." worthy
>>484458235watch some "my steam launch made HOW MUCH!?!?!?!" videos on youtube and you'll see the estimate always overshoots for small games
>>484391181they seem to avoid giving f-tier to any game that appears on their review list even when it clearly deserves it. they seem to put too many in c tier or better when most of those will flop. so many of the games appearing on their tier lists seem lower quality than what i see here and if i think most of you are ngmi, unfortunate reality even if the game looks good, then why is he handing out C's like its nothing? i hope he is at least harsh with the games that appear in demo day. idk if he'll be doing a tier list or simply playing them.>>484448392i've seen him in the marnix youtube before, his capsule is okay but feels a bit lack on the right half
>>484457403Hacktic's game uses none of Kenney assets
>rpgmaker "devs" who only post art get 20 replies>actual gameplay gifs get ignored
>>484455310tell me more
>>484393187tik tok/instagram ad. but the ad looks sketchy considering you're giving away money, not to mention i'm sure most people are aware of hackers usually being at the top of leaderboards and will thus simply ignore your offer even if they believe it is true and you will give that reward out.
>>484458457post prove
>>484394406Same. Since Marnix isn't even much of a gamedev he might end up becoming one of those people that passes by here every now and then. Or even lurking/posting here for years. I mean we already have at least one who's admitted it and assuming they're not all the same guy it might be several iirc.On that note, I wonder just how many people who browse this general on a weekly or more frequent basis over months or even years, are simply people curious about us and our games or maybe just find the atmosphere fun.
is it possible to be consistent and doing the same thing every day? or do i need to spend some days eating well, learning, improving and then spend some days wasting time, eating pizza, having fun and then go back to being productive again?i feel like i always strife to be consistent yet a consistent life feels so boring and i outright get angry at times about it and feel like destroying something.maybe i need to embrace ups and downs more and stop caring about consistency.actually i also notice my motivation and creativity gradually going down the longer i'm consistent.

unpopular opinion, but this is the best thread on 4chan. it's just fun to be in here. i don't depend on inspiration or motivation from others, so i could care less about progress posting.
brogress, i should have been more mindful of the UV, with low res textures the seams are more noticeable when the orientation is different
>>484462856post your game idea whats it supposed to look like

>2 daysI can start tomorrow.
>>484464852>so i decided to take some time learning blenderYou are doing great then, I hope to see the models being used for a project in the future. Good luck.

>>484464852Did you follow any tutorials? Looking to learn Blender as I just can't fucking take Maya anymore.
>>484465710yeah, i'm in the same situation. probably gonna try getting a job some time later this month or in August. however i have no intent of focusing on moving up the job ladder. it's so i don't have that overwhelming sense of dread of failure for my game along with not being a leech, oh and to get a gf too. doubt telling them i'm a neet at this age will fly all that well. i still intend to work on my game and can probably release by my new deadline but i sure hope it releases sooner.>>484466260aww anon don't ruin anon's literal mommy artist by posting such a degen pic. i'm not actually him i was just pretending to be him
>>484465710>>484466907we're all gonna make it
in my game you play as a little mouse guy :)
>>484466738nope
should I stop being a wagie dev brosi have a lot of savings
>>484466907I thought he would think it was funny. Oh well, since you're not him anyway. No harm, no foul
>>484462775>... and that's why you should use AI in your game!
>>484467301The social pressure to not be a neet even if you have money and are working on something full time is depressingly huge. I have 500k + 60k passive income and still get endlessly attacked for working in gaming instead of having a "real job", even my partner does a bit.
>>484467232what is daz for then
>>484466753years ago i tried to follow those blender tutorial but it was boring and i didn't felt like wasting 10 hours making a donut, this time i tried to make something on my own and google what i thought i needed
>>484467301Post game idea?
>>484467301do you have savings or do you have passive income from investments?

I finished my first rough draft of my demon day level. It's a little uneven right now and probably will still be for demon day, but that's okay.Thanks for reading my plog (my progress blog.)
>>484468320you're welcome
nyah!
>>484467310i did find it funny but it might cross a line. what if his mom is browsing? doesn't that mean there's now 4 anonettes?>>484467643i wonder how much that donut tutorial even helps towards gamedev. i know 3d art requires a lot of weird stuff i don't understand>rigging>weight painting>normals>other stuff
>>484467821hollow knight except it's redwall
Rigify makes rigging easyWeight painting is intuitive, just tedious.Normals are intuitive.Other stuff is pretty hard though.Blender can do a lot of cool things. Just get to work on something you care about, you'll figure out how as you go.
I need the song "Not Gonna Get Us" but with the lyrics "We're All Gonna Make It" because we will totally make it you guys!
>>484468079I will comb through this. I pray this will either provide me the solution or insight I need to solve my issue and if so I will jump with joy.
>>484468956Just today I tried the method in the video you linked and it didn't work for me. Then I tried the one in that github issue comment and it worked GREAT.If you want, I can post my specific imolementation of it tomorrow, but it's basically just copy-pasted right from that comment.Good luck anon.
>>484468881>Weight painting is intuitive, just tedious.luckily blender auto weights are pretty good if your rig is done right and your topology is good

I am going to make it.

>>484470862What makes that game "polished" in your opinion
>>484470979yeah, I'm not gonna make it.i give up.
>some zoomer on /v/ calls your game "sovl"
how was the /v/ games showcase anyway,. was there some kinos
There's still so much left for my demo, looks like I will have to crunch like crazy tomorrow.
>>484472037just don't participate
>>484442002I DON'T GET IT! Every now and then I browse some game's and end up finding out that dev of this or that game goes from 1 game that looks like it was only made by 1 guy to a game that looks like it was multiperson team. How do all their skills improve by such drastic amounts in under 5 years? What am I doing wrong! Why are they gaining exp much faster!
>>484470862Is this the new meta? Claim that games that released 5 minutes ago have flopped?
>>484472037you can do it bocchidev!
>>484470862Don't worry anon, I will shit on this game and then you will feel hope again.The first few seconds of the trailer are actually pretty cool. But then the screen starts shaking like crazy, and already I'm not a fan, as I can't imagine looking at a shaking screen like that for longer than 5 seconds.Then we get to see the actual gameplay. The UI looks terrible. The upscaled sprites on the right look out of place. So do the sprites themselves. They look like stock rpgmaker sprites. The UI looks very gray and boring, and I'm intimidating with the amount of information on screen.But then, the final nail in the coffin, the logo appears out of nowhere, with a very shitty voice over saying the title. And yes the voice is purposely made low quality, but that only works if the initial recording did sounds good. Also the logo does not match the art style of the game at all.This game should be happy it got that one review, though it's probably their friend or something.
I was looking at this because an anon posted it previously critiquing the capsule art, and I was wondering how anons feel about a steam page without a video? I was thinking of holding off until I had enough content to make a good video before creating a steam page.That aside, I recognise most of the assets used in the Beacon of the Bellrock. It looks like a full on Unreal asset flip.

>>484449119>don't need to be better than trashyou DO need to be better than trash
just in case nothing else gets my game traction (cause traction is all I need. The game is good enough to virally spread itself), I have a contingency measure that's 100% guaranteed to get me a big burst of attention
what exactly is "game dev".programming is programmingmodelling is modellinganimation is animationdrawing is drawingmusic is musicbut what exactly is gamedev? the decision part?if so, do you guys study gamedev theory?
>>484473028If you have to ask
>>484473028gamedev is the ability to juggle 10 different things that no nigga in his right mind would be trying to do all at once
>>484473028Yes. A game is all about design. You could have a game be a single screen that you play by looking at it. Not even any buttons or controls. You look at it and do something with it in your mind.

>>484472178i used to think a video was whatever cuz i usually look at screenshots to see if i like the game, but i think not having a video is a big mistake, you for sure want a trailer of all the best parts of your game

how do i get over the feeling that i have to sit on my pc endlessly until i finished my game? i need to take a walk, have friendships, have a life. but i feel like as long as i don't finish something and earn money i'm not supposed to have a life. but that bites me in the back because it causes depression.
>>484475181not him but looks like metaballs
>>484475409Depression isn’t real. You don’t need all that boring stuff either. Just make game.
