I'm tired of being back. I miss when it was over.
cheers /agdg/lets make some vidya
We are so back!
>>488029705What's the gameplay?
>>488029705
>>488029945>damn, I'm looking good!
>>488029945Mirrors are hard
>>488029945>meanwhile, DOOM
>>488030170I look like this
Give me ideas for zelda-like items/abilities. Preferably not overly gimmicky

How do I cope with the fact that I am a codelet and can't optimize my game because I can't write actual code? My game looks like a 2003 PC game but requires 2012 hardware at minimum, and I've hit the limit with what I can personally do without actually fixing the shitty engine I'm on.
>>488030548
I ordered some pizza because stress and depression.
>>488029945>>488030192Mirrors work fine in low fidelity games but become too expensive at high fidelity. Graphics is not a simple straight line. There are tradeoffs.Another example is older engines having better lighting effects through faked dynamic lighting where the engine would just swap out between different light maps. A lot of modern engines have lost this feature because it was considered "obsolete" as dynamic lights became more common, but in fact you can do a lot cooler effects through light map switching.

Okay, last patch didn't fix my game, but I'm sure THIS one will fix it.
I'm stuck in tutorial hell, send help.
“Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.” Ponder this and apply it to your game
>>488029945I need a loli like hina in my game
>>488029705I'd recommend you start a Patreon or something like that and start shilling as soon as possible, I think a lot of people would want to support this game, even this early in development.Also, amazing foreskin animation.
>>488031304Perfection is lots of little things done well.
i'm out of low hanging fruit to implement in my game
>>488031304just deleted my whole game and now theres nothing to take away so its perfect
>>488031304"Perfection doesn't exist just keep adding stuff as long as it makes things more fun"
>>488031304already didremove your fishing and hunger mechanics
>>488031304post your perfect game
>>488030017A bit of third person action leading into a rhythmic wrestling segment>>488031448Thanks, we'll get on that soon
>Also, amazing foreskin animation.
>>488031734duckduckgo project nortubel
I think if my whole game was a big happy funny face in the middle of the screen and clicking it made a clown noise people would still say its overwhelming and confusing.
>>488030192bait?
>>488031841>everyone else is as stupid as I am
>>488031776Yes? Sorry if you're American.
>>488029945My wife Hina
>>488031690Asymmetrical face
is there a name on that genre where you're constantly moving on the Z axis , there's 3 horizontal paths that you can move between and there's typically obstacles you have to avoid on the paths?
>>488032546Infinite runner?
>>488031304Dog doo doo advice
>>488032006As far as I understand, it's real, there are additions and mods to add seamless portals and the like but it's otherwise running off of doom's original DOS engine with many of the same limitations, like there being no verticality besides visuals.
anyone recommend me some learning material on how to bake lightmaps on blender maps for Godot use?
I don't wanna dev.I don't wanna cook.I don't wanna work out.I don't wanna do my laundry.I don't wanna go get groceries.How do I get myself to stop being such a lazy sack of shit?
>>487986185My condolences >>487986374>>487989534Kek >>487991184Huh....you already got destructible terrain. I still dont understand the voxel like terrain destruction like in Noita. Anyone got resources to learn for that?
I'm so scared about my game's release. It's not that I don't know what to do, I don't know how people will react to my game. Feedback has been positive so far from those who tested it but can that really extrapolate to an actual audience?
>>488033041Just like stop caring.
>>488033003fuck off Faggy
>>488032546infinite/endless runner
>>488031776if I made a pornographic game, I would definitely put foreskin animation in it.
>>488032936Kek I put off going to the bank for a like a week. Getting a haircut has been put off for like a month. I have however been able to dev more than normal actually. Also want to see some advicd.
>>488029945maybe make a game instead of navelgazing about deferred rendering. as if you have any gameplay or assets to render
>>488033041Post your game and I'll tell you whether it's gonna do well or not.
add femboys to your gameNOW(I am no longer asking)
>>488033619My character creator solves this
Can someone tell what I should be expecting switching from Unity to Monogame?
Imagine not having an ultra customizable character creator in your game lmao, imagine ruining and breaking the player’s immersion by not giving them any control over what their in game character looks like kek
>>488033674No one cares nigga what the fuck is a monogame
>>488033816i have 2 clothing sets for my player character. plenty enough if you ask me !
I think that is everything that is needed to be tweaked or added done. Going to test the final systems tomorrow with more recording, then if it goes well it will be good.
game dev protip: if you're adding character customization, save time by not even bothering to add a male option, because the only people who care about character customization want to be girls! :3
>>488033674Expect a barebones "engine" that only handles graphics, sound and input. Maybe that's all you need if you want to roll everything yourself.
>>488033816feature bloat, basically procrastination
>>488033619ok, what species?
>>488033427>Post your gameI haven't posted it here in a loong time though. It would be weird for me to post again, especially in such context.
>>488033619fag
>>488033619Why did zoomers start calling trannies "femboys"? I keep seeing this word all over the internet and I still have no idea what separates a tranny from a "femboy", assuming there's even a difference.
>>488034310Ahahahaha cope and seethe, “character customizer is feature bloat” ahahahah actually malding because you lack the talent to create something like that
>>488033285u ok?
>>488034339Found it. It looks like shit.https://store.steampowered.com/app/3043960/Stop_Them_All/
>>488034674Femboy means a guy who wants to remain a guy but he wants to be a feminine guy. A tranny is a guy with an insane mental illness that has convinced himself that despite being a literal man, he is actually a woman
>>488034689>Ahahahaha cope and seetheare you 12
>>488034308Will have to do stuff like deciding what to render? I will have to the those kinds of engine work? Do I get to use .net libraries like in Unity?
>>488034874ohhh we got 'em boys
>>488034853So basically it's a sliding scale of mental illness?
>>488034770But this isn't my game? I was making a 3d game. And I haven't actually released just yet.
>>488035167You mean you haven't made a Steam store page yet?
>>488033619what does Japanese cartoons have to do with it?
>>488034689i already did add character customization to my gameupon further reflection, I realized it was pointless and added nothing towards the experience I was trying to create
>>488034674trannies aren't femboys, there's a clear difference between those gay terminologiestwink - obvious guy with a slim body, can be non-muscular or lightly toned. happy being a guyfemboy - male who's happy being a guy who's natural features are noticeably feminine but he's still recognizeable as maletrap - male who's happy being a guy who's natural features are so feminine he's mistaken for a girltranny - male/female who's unhappy with their birth sex and wants to be the opposite. uses artificial and synthetic means of achieving this through HRT, surgeries, and other forms of bodily modification
God I hate /agdg/ so much. I wish horrible death upon all of you, who will post in this horrible thread.
>>488034674>>488034853>>488035103>>488035723
>>488035796I love aggy daggy.I love shitpostersI love gamedevI love simpsI love coomersI love schizosI love eceleb postersI love the inner circleAnd most of all, I love (you)
>>488035723>a guy who's natural features are so feminine he's mistaken for a girl
>>488036019SHUT UP SHUT UP
>>488036061Hence why it's mostly relegated to fiction like video games which is why you should add them to yours
>>488035723it's all fag shit
Hello AGDG. You like to think you can tell why a game has flopped just from glancing screenshots in the store page. Better yet, you act like you can tell if a game will sell or not long before it's released. Do you want to play a game? On the left there's 5 games at various quality levels. On the right there's their review count shuffled around. Can you match the right ones without checking?
how do i come up with a story to go along with my gameplay?
>>488036818Sorry, I can't tell you. Have a good day.
>>488036942Ask ChatGPT to do it for you
>>488036818the others are trash but rule the waves 3 is obviously the most reviewed oneit's probably one of the few games that exists for historical ship nerds and is the third entry in a series
>>488036942>his gameplay isn't directly informed by the story and vice versaI shiggy diggy
>>488036818A or B = 5 or 2C D E = 1, 3, 4I'm grouping them because the review counts are too similar that it would be retarded to guess exactly.
Ok, I think next DD will the first playable demo of Galduen of the void with:>Ship designer>Functioning research>Travel and order for space ship>Contract with science and money prizeSo the main gameplay loop should be near complete.It will miss:>The story>Faction and diplomacy>Content>Accident and weight system>Crew and colony systemWill try to add a tutorial before DD if I can.What will (you) bring to the next DD?
>>488036818I probably shouldn't have made this right before going to sleep so I'll just leave the answers anyway. From most reviewed to least reviewed: 5-A The Herbalist2-B Rule The Waves 34-C Glyph3-D Tinertia 1-E The Witch's Isle
dear lord, you have no idea what i'm cookin
>>488037713probably no tok but ill still stream. will play your game and try to make it work this time.
>>488032936It's called force of willSimply force yourself to do things you don't want to do forever until it becomes habit
>>488032775But that looks like myhouse.wad, which is for doom 2, and not vanilla.
>NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LOOK AT THE PIXELS!!! IT HAS PIXELS!!! IT DESERVES MORE REVIEWS BECAUSE OF THE PIXELS
>>488033619if you can draw it, sure.
>>488037832I guessed just based on their capsule image and game type, herbalist looks like a hentai game and rule the waves is obviously autist bait. The other three are pretty generic which is why they have similar review counts although I would have picked the witch game out of the three based on game type though I guess the capsule art of the other two is better.
>>488038730>But that looks like myhouse.wad, which is for doom 2, and not vanilla.
>Prototype two games>Really hyped about one of them>It's fun>Can't get the graphics to look right no matter how hard I try>Politely enthusiastic about the other>It's nice>Manage to make it look good on the first tryRationally, I should really work on the second, but it's hard to make myself actually do this
>>488039309Rationally you should work on the first then. In the long run, passion matters more than ease.
Lizard. Samurais. Go.
>>488033619I will now add femboys to my game.
>>488032775Any port with seamless portal also has support for actual 3d floors. You're an uninformed retard spreading misinfo.
>>488039534I will now add lizard samurais to my game.
>>488039534I've notified the artist that you've posted their art on 4chan without their consent ;)
>>488039090hehehe i like this post
I'm over here pondering my orb I got magic in my orb right now I'm just pondering my shit I'm evil as fuck man I'm a wizard man like
My PC broke a few months ago and I've been using the Steam Deck docked as my main PC since. But I would like to start using it to learn Blender. I've already put a few hours into tutorials on it and it seems fine. There are concerns long term though that I'd like to ask about.I plan on eventually making a small hobby project for the Deck using Godot + Blender. I've never touched Godot so I'm unsure how it works and I could not find an easy answer. But is the Steam Deck capable of making models that would be viable in a game made with Godot? I know it is Godot is capable of using stuff from Blender just fine but I'm more worried about the quality of the assets. Blender doesn't run super great taking a long time for any animation besides basic stuff. Does Godot have a better way to deal with animations then rendering them in Blender and is there decent enough documentation on the process?TL;DRCan the Steam Deck properly use Blender to make assets for use in the Godot Engine?
>>488040094That's good. I prefer it being nonconsensual.
>>488041108what does Japanese cartoons have to do with it?
>>488041218Nothing I just like wasting Hiro's money when possible.
>>488033619not happening, faggot
>>488041902ok
>>488039534
/agdg/ i need a namei have a level called "Rudiments" that's like a collection of places and things that have drifted down from the rest of the world, so it's gonna be like a schizophrenic mishmash of pieces of other areasIt's divided into two halves, and i'm calling the first level "Anemoia" because I think it fits, but I can't thinkof a cool, vauge, conceptual name for the second half that complements the first one
>>488042669Znemoia
>>487993315all of blow's games are pretty underwhelming, but he manages to generate interest by speaking about his creations with grandiose language. making exaggerated claims about his relatively simple games is his favorite sport, and people often fall for his hype and buy out of curiosity. ultimately, he's figured out how to sell just about anything, since his outspoken online presence and influence in indie dev circles (like indicade) will likely continue to drive sales for whatever shit he produces.
>Today on 60 Minutes: We sit down with the developer behind the smash hit indie game "Cult of Damaskus" to explore what it takes to achieve success in the gaming world.
I keep starting side projects that I'll never finish
>>488043209Post your current side project then.
>>488043209my brother
Mockup of an idea I had to create the seeds for crafted worlds.Each pin represents a worldgen property and has a specific length, how intense the property is depends on how deeply it pierced the cube. Pins can't overlap so there's some strategy involved, and any leftover length can be considered instability for that world that creates undesired effects so your goal is to make it as tight and flush as possible if you want a stable world, or intentionally messed up and wasteful if you want instability.The box's shape can vary too, a long 1x1x5 shape could fit a single 5x pin, or five 1x pins, or whatever configurations it could fit.It's not really meant to be a puzzle minigame with a specific goal in itself so it's important that it's just quick and fairly easy to get what you want, but I feel that even with a modest 3x3x3 box it starts getting really convoluted and hard to tell what the overall effect would be, I might just make it 2D instead since it's much easier to visualize how many cells are pierced and such.
>>488043134It's crazy that you used to have to watch these shows to see people this fat, almost like a freak show. Now all I have to do is walk out.Take care of your health, guys.
>>488043209I keep starting side projects to expand my brain.
>>488043134Turns out the inner circle is literally inside.
>>488042669Aiomena or an anagram.>anemoia (uncountable)>(neologism, uncommon) Nostalgia for a time or a place one has never known.>Constructed fromAncient Greekἄνεμος(ánemos,“wind”)+νόος(nóos,“mind”), with reference toanemosis, the warping of a tree by high wind "until it seems to bend backward."So replace "mind" or "wind" with something else.

>>488043134>In the information age, the barriers just aren't there. The barriers are self-imposed. If you want to set off and go develop some grand new thing, you don't need millions of dollars of capitalization. You need enough pizza and Diet Coke to stick in your refrigerator, a cheap PC to work on, and the dedication to go through with it. We slept on floors. We waded across rivers.I have switched to a diet of nothing but pizza and Diet Coke in order to guarantee the success of my game.
>>488043671We are living the rat experiment.
>>488043671The show began as my 400lb life and grew to 600lb because being 400lbs wasn't considered outlandishly fat enough anymore.
>>488043927The rat utopia?Cool experiment, but the guy behind it did the same experiment like 20 times before he got the spooky one.
>>488044170That's the one, yeah.>did the same experiment like 20 times before he got the spooky oneI must have missed that part, well. We are living the 20th attempt in that case.
I think I'm gonna apply some weekly dev/practice/study quota retroactively to the first day-1 of 2024 and start from there. Maybe like 16 hour dev 8 hours practice 8 hours study.
planning an herobut as an aggydagger I want to do something related to gamedev. Any ideas?
>>488045094The true aggy way is to make elaborate plans on killing yourself but procrastinate the actual act until the day of your natural death comes and you die without actually doing anything.
>>488036818The herbalist must be on top cause it's got the nudity tag and it's been made by the "Everlasting Summer" VN team
>>488044537There were other issues with his experiments which I don't remember off the top of my head.
>>488045094Cosplay as a character from an /agdg/ game, so your family and the police get confused when they find you dead.
>>488043817>>488043826I will take these suggestions into consideration thank you
>>488045094>make a good game>post progress here>the quality of your game will attract a schizo (it's the same guy who crabs everyone else so you'll have to share)>antagonize the schizo with frequent progress posts>wait for a particularly potent schizo meltdown to "accidently" doxx yourself>schizo tracks you down and kills you when you least expect itIt's important that your game is actually good, since the quality of the game reflects how obsessed the schizo will become with you.

if i make my game only playable windowed because the art looks bad when scaled up will people hate me and not buy my game and dox me and rape my dog and kill me and pour acid on me?
THERE HAS BEEN A FLY IN MY ROOM ALL FUCKING DAY I'M GOING INSANE
>>488046876What breed is your dog?
>>488047070calm down Tomo
>>488036818Heh this should be fun1. Witch's Isle (C 80) Looks like it has a story2. Rule the Waves 3 (B 552) I've seen a game like this, autists love it for unknown reasons. I think I've seen it before. If I get it wrong then the reviews are basically flipped with The Herbalist.3. Tinertia (D 74) Seems meh but has some depth compared to Glyph, terrible capsule so I wouldn't be surprised if it's reviews are flipped with Glyph if I get it wrong4. Glyph (E 56) Looks like garbage5. The Herbalist (A 590) Think I've seen this one before desu. If I get it wrong then the reviews are basically flipped with Rule the Waves 3.
>Heh this should be fun
>>488047297I miss Tomo...
>>488037832Oh yeah got it about half right. Just had to move The Witch's Isle to the bottom and then flip Glyph with Tinertia. I was sus the capsule was going to make a difference at such a low review count.
>>488036818I got the two games with triple digits right away, the other ranges are too narrow to matter.There are people who will somehow get this wrong and pretend gamedev is a lottery lol.
>>488047554she's busy right now ;)
>>488046876Why does it look bad when scaled up?
>>488047297W-what make's you Think that? That's definitely not Tomo Poster.
>>488047760I don't know. It has this GBA quality to it. Looks great at several times the size of a gameboy screen, but really blocky when you go beyond that. I think it has something to do with the eye smoothing the blocks into solid shapes when they're small enough, but not when they grow past a certain threshold, but I'm not sure.
>>488047374>>488047638These two are my posts btw.
>>488048260Do you have a screenshot?
>>488047554Me too...
>>488031304Design by subtraction only works if you have a huge art team to amaze players with visuals alone, and even better if you have godtier muscicians. ie shadow of the colossus.
>>488038202is this dingodev ?
>>488036818I suspect the worst performer, Tinertia, had the most effort put into graphics in terms of time spent on that aspect only, and yet it did the worst. That must suck. Although the Herbalist might be a strong contender for most work put into graphics but idk.

Huh, I wonder when that started counting.
>>488046997Lots of flies where I live. I use a spray bottle of Lysol cleaner to squirt them when the land. It pretty much melts their wings and eyes instantly and then you can just smash their flailing body and clean the area at the same time

>>488049974that's actually genius, thanks anon
>>488052402Sorry
Coming up with a satisfying plot for a visual novel is insanely hard. I have no idea why people keep trying to claim making VNs is easy.
>>488052068It doesn't matter, you're still black. That's what really matters to people.
>>4880524024chan is the place where you can complain about there being too many blacks everywhere but also refuse to believe that a single black person could make their way into the same thread as you.
>>488053062surprised this list didn't update considering the last thread
unity anonsis there a way to make override controllers on top of existing override controllers?for example i have an animation controller for sword wielding and attack animationsI then make an override controller for an axe with its own wield and attack animationsbut then lets say i want to make male and female variationsmale swordmale axefemale swordfemale axeis there a way to do this with override controllers? or maybe an organized way of going about it?this example is trivial and can be fixed with just making separate male and female controllers, but you'd get the idea of how quickly this can get out of control when scaling up
Is not being able to make a fun game without the art or budget a skill issue? If you give a great game designer poor tools could he still make a successful game despite the limitations in the modern day indie market?
>>488053592Obviously skill you retard. You could play go fish with a pack of index cards and a marker and it would still be fun.
>>488052970That happens because of public and corporate policies like forced busing and DEI hiring. It hardly applies to Internet forum users who show up here out of their own volition.Having a black guy would be useful though because of the DEI specific marketing resources you can potentially get.
my game- sucks- is shit- looks like ass- is a turdquestions?
>>488053156nothing happened last thread
>>488046876>if i make my game only playable windowed because the art looks bad when scaled up will people hate me and not buy my game and dox me and rape my dog and kill me and pour acid on me?yes. incidentally i changed the way Solitaire Battle resizes the window so it no longer has mixels nor letterboxinghttps://files.catbox.moe/jdumfh.gif
>>488053724Sure but would it be fun for more than 2 hours with enough replayability for zoomers even as a single player game?
>>488054165meant the op pic
>>488053209that's not how they worklike the override would be the same.the point of the overrride is that the animation names/transitions are the sameoverriding an override is just the same as overriding the base animator. idk how your game works, but i would use a scriptableobject for that contains the variants and just use that in code. or if i'm being perfectly honest, you likely don't even need gendered animations in the first place and are overscoping.
>>488051440I thought you left Vividlope anon?
ok. figured out how to make arongranbergastar move with my custom update loop. it was really simple once i found the relevant code. its actually super well documented in the source code even though the online docs sucki think if I used the ECS version i might need to roll some shit myself but i don't think i need that for a game that will have MAX 40 pathfinding agents at once
>>488053592Give Kojima only Cris's art and no upgrading it allowed, and he'd still be able to make a 10k review game, fact but only because of his fanboys though it'll be like <20% positive
>>488056861No, he'd make a horror game using cris art. 100k reviews. changes horror gaming forever
>>488053592There are loads of games here that force you to walk with no fun movement mechanics in sight.Every anon game improves when you swap out the original dev for another guy.
>>488029945it doesn't seem hard
>>488029945its over...
>>488057434give me suggestions for a fun movement mechanic for my myst-like
>>488055371>the point of the overrride is that the animation names/transitions are the samethats what i wantsword attack and axe attack point to the same animation state, but have different animations.ideally i would have 1 animator controller, then 2 overrides for male / female, then 2 overrides for sword / axe>you likely don't even need gendered animations in the first place and are overscoping.this is just an example

It's ok to be a white nodev.
>>488060637Can't you be a nodev somewhere else though?
>>488060779I'm a yesdev thoughchance, I'm merely legitimazing nodevvery.
It’s mandatory to be a milk drinking yesdev if you’re white
I feel like an idiot savant being obviously better than everyone here and in the wider internet and seeing these retards landing gamedev jobs simply because they're social butterflies with connections.
>>488062358maybe you'd do better socially if you weren't such an insufferable pretentious egotist
>>488033674I'm using monogame because unity makes no sense to me. If your making a very simple 2d game you should be fine.
>>488062358>Gabe Newell, one of the Windows testers who went on to enjoy a long and successful career at Microsoft, showed up at the office with a sleeping bag. For a solid month, he camped in his office, working around the clock and catching a few catnaps when he could no longer stay awake. He became known as "Madman" Newell from that point on.That is the difference between real gamedevs and "idiot savants" like you.
how easily can i monetize a rpg maker gamei havent fucked with this since 2003 was the new thing, but if i get somewhere, ill want to monetize it
How do you learn things that require reading when you cant focus? At the moment, I'm just skimming through the text to find the parts that I need and then just try to brute force it through trial and error. For example, learning about delegates vs actions in gamedev.

>>488063952solve your focus problem.
Is adding online multiplayer to a GameMaker game hard? Would it be possible to make an online multiplayer game and put it on itch.io? Would I need to pay for servers for the online multiplayer?
What kind of game should I make if I'm good at programming, useless at 2D art, not terrible at 3D art and good at writing funny stuff?
>>488063896Something like fear and hunger.
>>488062358Post the best thing you ever made
>>488062358Why the hell would you want a gamedev job? That's like working on an assembly line for a car designed by some one else.

>>488063896Post your RPGMaker game/concept. If you can't and genuinely thought about how to monetize it first and foremost, then consider suicide.

Why did roguelikes evolve away from stat number go up and toward having your power come from synergizing effects while CRPGs and gachas are still stuck in the stat-heavy design of 90s RPGs?
>>488064961my brain doesn't learn anymore so I can't grok either
>>488065109Looks genuinely very bad and not fun
>>488065207>gacha>live service modelbecause the latter requires players to continue playing their product
godoy
>>488065387>because the latter requires players to continue playing their productWell with gacha I think it's an east vs west thingI notice the differences between individual characters and the impact of leveling them much more in a game like warframe, or even raid shadow legends, compared to arknights. The total number of different stats you need to focus on is kept much more comprehensible in favor of more distinct effects.

>>488062358a lot of people get caught in this trap of feeling super smart and accomplishing nothing. don't feel too bad about it, you're just so dumb that you feel smart.
>>488064280>>488064497Wouldn't that be a waste of programming and 3D skills?
>rpgIf you resist, you take half damage, that's all well and good. But what if you're weak? 50% more damage is linearly the same as taking half. Taking 2x is exponentially more and leads to weird scaling and big numbers
>>488066628it's just a screenshot of something we've seen in action. I don't know if there is progress. I'd need a before and after

guy! what about a necesse clone with non-janky movement or combat? will i make it?
>>488030695Oh I'm the opposite. I can make self-contained systems, but fuck if I can make things interactive or extend them

>>488062358iktf for normal paper pusher jobs where the work is literally following a set of premade stuff/instructions. what do you mean i need social connections and 5 years experience or 10 years of waging there to get the job? annoys me desu.gamedev jobs arent easy to get anymore. 10 years ago you could make a simple game and be streamlined into getting a triple a gamedev job
>>488045094you have the perfect chance to become van gogh famousmake a game about it instead of becoming a nodev
pretty happy with my progress so far on the core sailing mechanicsIm quite proud of the polar polynomial function I came up with to model the speed of the boat with regard to wind angle (points of sail)then the sail angle is modelled with a linear function plus an additional term where I take the cross product of the boat's bow vector and the wind vector to check the direction of the wind relative to the sail

>>488069782It was harder to make games back then so managing to release a decent but simple game on your own was impressive.
>>488069985so that's why sdv took an eternity, huh?
>>488069782It just happened with someone I know which is why I made the post to begin with.
>>488063896make an appealing game
>>4880692373D is a lot more flexible and synergizes better with programming and game design, therefore it's a more valuable skill even if it produces uglier art.
>>488069936Make a Sailwind clone but free because I don't want to pay any money for a game where I drive a boat.
>>488064098Unironically this. FH did something risky and new innovativeIt hated the player in a good way and had a weird depth that kept you wanting more

Trying to add melee combat and special attacks. I think I need to add knockback or something, it doesn't feel right yet.I also need to figure out the code to control when enemies respawn.

Can you make an open world game in GameMaker?

damn how is this engine not x10 better than godot?! https://github.com/stride3d/strideimagine having to code in the gimped godotscript or stepchild c# that exists in godot when you could use a native c# engine
If my game doesn't have a chance of making it, is it even possible to make dev progress on it? Isn't making a game and doing nothing of the same value?
