what if your game sells 1k copies
I goon. I dev. I goon again.
i like the look of nim. perhaps i shall become a nimmer.
how many reviews after 3 years?
When I make it, I'm going to organize free japanese holiday trips for you guys. The only requirement is you need to have a game and be physically in fighting condition as we're going to intercept Marnix and his gang making their videos.
Made a booth seat material in substance painter. Now I have the power to replace all the ugly materials that look completely out of place.
>>4889361162 or 2000. It's impossible to say.
>>488936116it's pixelshart but there's at least an attempt to add some cool shader effects and the combat is juicy, so idk, 150-300?
>>488936132You Marnix doesn't actually live in Japan, right? I don't understand why I keep seeing this here. He's still based in Belgium, he's just taken trips to Japan multiple times.
>>488936746He stayed there for 3 months and he literally said on the AGDG stream that he plans on going there again with his team. I'm sure we can find him, hell we can pick up frufi along the way if we feel like it.
did the artist tranny quit BiteMe? xe was cute
>>488936694are juice and cool visuals like 45% of a game's appeal
I'll have my revengeJust you wait
>>488936887good luck cutie
>>488935864I RIDE TO VALHALLA, SHINY AND CHROME!
>>488936874probably like 60% or more.
>>488936137Looking great. Light emission is still too high
Give me your most obscure, experimental game ideas. Please.
>>488935814Then I keep working on it until it sells 1k more, then 1k more, then 1k more...
>>488937295>You are a guy>You do things>The things you do are good>But actually they are bad>And you aren't really the guyI'll take 15% revenue share, thank you.
>>488937295Doki Doki Literature Club but you play as Monika
>>488937295you're a schizo trying to escape from a horrific mental hospital and the game mode switches constantly to simulate your instable reality. one minute you're playing a dungeon crawler, the next you're platfagging, and so on. different kind of meds affect the world in different ways. enemies are reflection of your inner fears and anxieties.
>>488937295A robotic arm holds you by a harness and allows inertia and true 5d movement in VR, enabling you to do epic bossfights or play 0G platformer where you do the movementIt's my most innovative idea and I'm giving it for free because it requires an initial investment of 10M for questionable returns(only one user plays in a huge 3d space requiring custom machinery)
>>488935814market the shit out of it
>>488935864Let me ask you this: do you Fygoon?
>>488937295Monster taming/breeding game but you play as Yakub trying to make white people.
>>488937850nice try american mcgee.
>>488938167if you make white people, do you lose?
>>488937295I thought up a wild experimental idea for you, but I like it too much to divulge now.
>>488937295cozy sex doll repair shop sim
For breakfast I had a bowl of yogurt with granola and honey, 2 pieces of toast with butter, a glass of whole milk and a cup of coffee.
>>488939147Not a gram of protein in sight, lmfao. Skinny dyel freak. I’d snap your arm in half like a toothpick
>>488939147I ate sardines. Sardines everyday. I don't even care about arsenic poisoning.
>>488939147now you're ready for a nap
:: Project Nortubel ::progress :: Worried Bonka. Probably the first time I make the nose's face emote something.
>>488938167I thought Yakub just found savage white people in the mountains somewhere and just took credit for making them
>>488939258>calling another person a dyel without even realizing yogurt and fucking milk have protein in themYou have never worked out before in your life.
>>488939558IIRC he made them in a lab or some shit because he was angry at the other black people.
>>488939558You calling Yakub a liar?
>>488940149Yes
Is netcode difficult to do?I figure people could excuse shitty netcode if your online game is good enough, any quirks or annoyances they'll put up with until you can hire someone to write some better code.
>>488939558>>488939842This is unironically better lore than 99% of games out there.
>>488937295Horde RTS for tablets where you use a paint overlay to control where your units will go. Scribble harder on an area to send more units there. Earlier levels introduce different colours. Later levels introduce runes which add effects. Later still require object recognition for what you draw and reject anything that doesn't match.You eventually have to draw a cat that AI can recognise, incorporate the runes for fire and resist into your drawing because you're fighting flamekin, and do this while your units travel down the cat-shaped path you've set and probably get rekt by your opponent.One day I will program her.
>>488939658>just eat sugary yogurt for your protein broOk so you seek out foods with a 100 calorie per 1 gram of protein ratio? Dumb faggot lmao
>>488940365depends on the game probably but it can be reasonable. Testing and devving it has a lot more friction though so making progress is slower
>>488936839I'll be in Japan for two weeks in February. Meet me if you dare Marnix, we can fight or fuck. Your call.
>>488936137>doubling down on the pbr realism in a lowpoly gameI don't think this is the right direction for a boomer shooter.
I really don't get the whole "indie game dev in Japan" thing? What's the benefit unless you are running a youtube channel? Only time it made sense is that aggydaggy guy who is half jap and half portugese or something.
>>488940930It's something I'll do if my game is successful. Great cheap food. Easy to move around the country. Safe. Living with humans instead of barbarian retards. Beautiful country.
>>488940604>sugary yogurtHoney is one of the healthiest sources of carbs, and the amount of protein in yogurt depends on the kind. The skyr they sell at my grocery store has like 19g of protein per 100kcal, which is pretty good.The problem with that anon's breakfast is the granola and toast. That shit is real poison.
>>488940930Japan has weak currency so if you make foreign money you can live like a king in a first world country. (As opposed to moving to a 3rd world shithole to live like a king where there's less facilities and more people who can shag you.)Even putting that aside japan has a strong cultural export, especially for video games to the point where it's pretty much "japan by itself vs the rest of the world". A lot of people like anime or japanese games so of course they wouldn't mind visiting japan.
>>488940930>>488941158Yeah I know all of that but how does that help you make a game?
>>488936132I saw the indian looking guy marnix interviewed at bitsummit in Kyoto 2 weeks ago but I didn't talk to him because his game lacks appeal
>>488941216>how does being more financially stable help you make a game?You'll understand once you graduate high school, anon.
>>488941158Did you forget about the second world again, zoomer buddy?
>>488941216It doesn’t they’re just weirdo incel weebs fantasizing about a (non existent) Asian girl who will like them because a white girl has never even looked in their direction lmao
:: Project Nortubel ::progress :: Odin shows up.
>>488940930I think I want to live there if I make it. Art talent seems way more abundant there, I can speak japanese. Though gaijin need to stop moving to japan. Except me.
>>488941216You network with japanese game developers. Japan has monthly events for indie game developers to meet up. That guy who was making the low poly robot on mars game also went to one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdgrlyhgGh8
>>488940930Japan's economy is currently collapsing, so the cost of living there is very low. You get third world shithole prices without being mugged every other week.
>>488941684Incel weeb>>488941798Incel weeb>>488941865Incel weebJapanese women are just as disgusted by you as white women, don’t forget that
>Japanese women are just as disgusted by you as white women, don’t forget that
sounds tenuous, It only takes one political movement to make the country very unwelcoming to foreigners
>>488937295here, take this $1mi game idea, I'm giving it for free because i have 20+ ideas like this one and i never gave any of them, good luck for those that go for this golden rush:Crash Team Racing (worldmap movement, graphics/color saturation) but roguelike rpg
>>488942768There are like 10,000 clones of this on steam right now lol
what do you call it when you don't do work because you expect all the work you do to be useless/valueless anyways?i don't want to spend endless hours on something that makes me zero profit.maybe it's not just the fear of it not selling, but also the fear that you wont be able to finish it. so you work endless hours on something you wont finish anyways, which is also a waste of time.
>>488942968>what do you call it when you don't do work because you expect all the work you do to be useless/valueless anyways?Having no passion.
Is it possible for a renpy application to be displayed in 600x400 resolution
>>488942968It’s called being a loser faggot who will never achieve anything and will still somehow retain a false belief of superiority over those who accomplished everything he wished he had
I'm not going to game dev today
:: Project Nortubel ::progress :: Some curtains.
>>488943129No, sorry, any other resolution is fine but not that one. Better luck next time
>>488943131lmao, too accurate
>>488943131you seem angry, have sex incel>>488943027i'm not a 12 yo living with his parents who can live from "passion" and air
It’s Sunday, you guys aren’t working on the Lord’s day of rest, right?
>>488942459ngmi
>>488942968lack of intrinsic motivation. your goal is money and there's millions of easier and faster ways to get it, like a normal job. without the desire to make something good for the sake of it, you won't make it very far in gamedev.
>It's SundayI don't give a shit nigga. The spice must flow.
>>488943131buck status = broken
>>488943239uh oh, looks like that hit a bit too close to home!
>>488943206Even older renpy versions can't display smaller than 720p? My monitor happens to be smaller than 720p and playing it on fullscreen never works while it never scales on windowed.
>>488943387a) intrinsic motivation doesn't existb) no, making money is always hard and it's hard to find a job, making games is a job like any other jobc) post your finished games
>>488942968skills transfer across all fields to some degree, effort is not wasted if it's honest work. I get the feeling because I don't expect my next game to be super successful, it seems niche, but I have had at least one random person go out of there way to join my discord and say they were looking forward to the full game after the demo. For me, that's enough. I'll work hard and make this game undeniably good, external validation would be nice but above all else I want to put out a good game. It'll be my second though in reality.
>>488942835no, there isn't
>>488943239>i'm not a 12 yo living with his parents Really? Judging by your butthurt replies you had me convinced.
next agdg is the one
>>488943953Do you have like a dozen different projects or are you just constantly hopping?
>>488943953vampire survivors with gardening?! **why didn't i think of that...**
>>488943953I am deadass insulted by how bad your "game" is
>>488943953too slow
i start to believe that a popular games aren't about averaging out what everybody likes, but finding things that a high number of people like."averaging out" just means you'll satisfy nobody.so lowest common denominator doesn't really work.it's like believing when 50% of people like banana and 50% people like mustard, you need to serve banana with mustard. but instead you need to figure out if a higher percentage of people like banana or mustard, and if it's 70% banana you need to serve banana.and if you want to serve mustard you need to rise the price according to how low demand the product is in quantity.
Gonna dive into the verlet integration maths to do some cloth physics simulation.
>>488944049constantly hopping but they are getting closer to completion
>>488940930My game is set in Japan. If I could be in Japan it would certainly help in making my game.
>>488944509>popular games aren't about averaging out what everybody likes, but finding things that a high number of people likewow... no way... you might really be on to something here
>>488943953>>488944137Kaliinasisters... not like this...
>>488936116looks fun and good looking enough, itch.io has one called soul chomper, i really liked that gameplay
>>488944383that one was a bit old video, it was very slow
>>488944945put it on DD and i'll play
>>488944945i was thinking about making a survivor like but then i found out how many survivor likes exist and now i'd never touch that genre lol.
>>488944945I'm the retarded green one
>>488944945you should legitimately take your own life if this is the best you can do
>>488943953>>488944945You have the knowledge
>>488945128Relax.
>>488945205Why when I am right?
>>488945119I started making a deckbuilder in 2016. There was only one. god I was slow...
if you wanna make huge cash, make a multiplayer survival building game
>>488945439>in 2016damn, I was 11 back then
>>488945080that's the plan>>488945119this last footage was from last year, since then a lot of survivors were released so i had to update it with some new mechanics soon i'll share more
>>488945746zoomies out!
>>488945761add a town with shops and npcs and your own plot where you can build a home or have a farm like in stardew valley. and then you can find decorations, seeds, tools, ores etc. via drops when going for a "hunt". i dunno i just like overlapping genres.
>>488945949I might be a zoomer but I've always felt like I could relate more to millennials. I love old PSX games and vintage animes like YuYu Hakusho that no one from my generation cares about.
gamedev tools barely improved since 2016, yet gamedev competition exploded by 100000x
>>488946208hello my child. where is your game?
>>488946112>I'm one of you guys!!!!!people of all ages hate the younger generations, don't try to be "one of the good zoomers" to appease coping old retards
>>488946112How is yuyu hakusho vintage
>>488946682Being this closeminded for a "creative" is pretty spectacular and I'm willing to bet you're a nodev because of it.
>>488945746You have to remember 9/11 to post in agdg
Today, I quit porn. I can do this. I have jerked off to porn every single day (3-5 times a day as of late) for the past two decades of my life, but today I'm quitting cold turkey. This shit is destroying my life, my health, and most importantly my productivity. If I ever want to make a game I have to remove this vice from my daily routine, it's the only way forwards.I've already deleted all of the porn off my computer, changed the passwords on my porn accounts to random digits, and left every gooning discord server I was a part of (yes, it was that bad). I'm looking up how I can block these websites from my home network too. I'm going to become the best version of myself, starting now.
>>488946112Based zoomer.
Make porn games!!
>finally get project to an almost finished state>turns out I vitally need a feature which only the newer versions of Unity have
man, I can't make a game using this style.But I do feel I can still use it for cutscenes, I think.
>>488946949You'll have to block 4chan as well. God speed anon. I hope I'll be able to player your game one day. Make it happen.
zoomers are the world last hope, most millennials do not have courage
>>488946827retard
>>488947256save me zoomerman!
Most people here don't understand that if you were born in 1997 in a second world country you could be a millennial if you somehow avoided all the brainrot of your peers
>>488947116Make mr mosquito. Can you do it? untapped market.
3D Life hack (UV edition)Instead of wasting your time, unwrapping everything neatly and hiding the seams, just hit auto-unwrap and say:>"Fuck it, those subhumans don't even know what's going on."it will also satisfyingly annoy enemy developers who won't be able to ignore it.Bonus points if it's a seam zigzagging diagonally across a weapon in first person, not blending together due to a normal map.
>>488947441I'm the only GenXer here. I can never go to a agdg meetup, I'd stick out like a sore thumb. Partly because I'm ancient, partly because I'm 6'5", bald and neckless and overall thumblike.
>>488947602You sound like a cool guy. I think all the good gamedevs only came from gen X. Boomers and millenials are genuinely embarassing with the shit they make
>>488947528I do this. I say I'll fix it later but later is always later than that. Sometimes I do resize islands and fix stretching in really bad cases thoughbeit
>>488947602>I'm 6'5", bald and neckless and overall thumblike.
>>488947504the issue is making the assets good quality while being cheap to make.
>>488947602does your head look like a sodding tic tac?https://youtu.be/yJd2bHwVnLE
>>488947256It's not that millennials don't have courage, their time simply came and went. The youngest millennials are in their early 30s now, give or take a few years. They're starting to reach the phase in life where they have to take their careers more seriously, think about starting a family, think about buying a house, take care of their aging parents, etc. The vast majority of them don't have the time to sit at the computer for hours every day working on a passion project.This is always where the younger generation comes into play. High schoolers, college students, young professionals, these people have the free time and spare energy to work on making games. One day time will come for the last of the zoomers as well, and we'll be living in the era of gen A indie games.
>>488947367woah what a come back amazing
>>488947935I'm a 26 year old Millennial
>>488947528>enemy developers
>>488947903just use the asset stores for basic house interior stuff. probably enough free shit.
>>488946961Ok.
It's really hollarious that most people don't have the brain capacity to understand the pitfalls of solipsism. It's like every single person is dumb enough to start thinking of actual adults as babies just because they happen to be 10 years younger. The thing is that most people (you included) completely erase their memories of their younger years and completely forget just how grown up a 15 year old actually is. Get a grip grandpa.
>>488948296We are not beating the "pedophile general" allegations with posts like this.
Oh and furthermore, I've seen you 35 year olds act like much bigger babies than most 20 year olds I've known. People in general are babies (you included you 40 year old shit)
>>488947960Cry about it tardo
>>488948560oh no i'm gonna cryyyyyy
>Oh and furthermore
>>488948005I meant to say "other developers".just a habit.
>>488948296We don't think zoomers are like babies. They are like boomers. Incredibly thin-skinned and with rampant main-character syndrome. Millennials are cringe but part of that cringe is self-deprecation, something zoomies and boomers rarely engage in.
>>488948296>hollarioushow emborassing
Today is backup day, and that means I'll be here shitposting for the next hour!
>>488948720right, I gonna use it from now on thoughever.
>>488948296Young people are dunning krugering by default. Their lack of experience with the world and themselves makes them do stupid things even though they are intelligent. I wasn't, I was too dumb for programming when I was a teen so I was a web dev until I was well into adulthood.
>>488948904Why it takes an hour to backup?
>>488949000I have multiple backups
>>488948904>it's occlusion baking day>it's lightmap baking day>it's cutscene rendering dayI'll be here all week
>>488948821don't tell me what to do schizo
Will AGDG blocklist my game if I add LGBTTQQIAAP+ characters to it?
>>488948958I was more self-aware and perceptive than my parents when I was 15. I still am. Age doesn't give you any advantages. "Experience" is a cope that the incompetent and disgraced come up with to justify their wasted lives.The average competent person can get a grasp of anything in like a month. Your "experience" doesn't make you special. You sound like a woman saying that fucking 100 guys will make you a better mother and wife
>>488949084There's potentially a lot more LGBwhatever's out there than there are agdg anons. And people on agdg are known to be poor so they won't buy your game anyway. So go ahead and make the game for the target audience you think will make you the most money.
>>488943953How do the /agdg/ characters factor into this?
>>488941684>Though gaijin need to stop moving to japan. Except me.Times hundred thousands.
amateur game developer larpers general
>>488948446Dude, everyone knows the "allegations" are true. Come on, man, stop kidding yourself. Unless you're trying to hide what is going on, in an imageboard that everyone can read, no sign-up required. LOL!
>>488949309what are you trying to say?
>>488946961Only as a very personal project that you at best use as a base for specific ideas that could be used in official games but without the porn autism.
>>488949265>You sound like a woman saying that fucking 100 guys will make you a better mother and wifeThose are clearly two very different roles.>The average competent person can get a grasp of anything in like a month.So I assume you've grasped this game development thing and are well into making your first game that will be as good as any subsequent game of yours because experience doesn't matter?
>>488948932Sure thing.. "bro".
>>488949295Good advice, thank you.
>>488949534So I assume you've grasped this game development thing and are well into making your first game that will be as good as any subsequent game of yours because experience doesn't matter?Yes to all. And don't try to lump in "experience" with experience. The experience of developing and shipping a game is not comparable to the "experience" of being an old fart. One of them takes a year. The other one takes a lifetime of mediocrity. I'm nowhere close to 30 and I'm already better than you ever will be. Chew on that
>>488949324Immigration isn't even a big issue in Japan, it's the birthrates that are the real issue. It's mostly weebs overblowing the issue because they don't want their perfect anime land diluted by western blood. Expats are a far worse issue in European countries where the barrier to learning the language is tiny to nonexistent. In trendy cities like Berlin, Prague, Paris, etc. locals are getting pushed out of their own cities due to all the foreigners coming there (and I'm not talking about brown people).
>>488948142the issue is that asset flips looks like garbage with diferent styles.
>>488950049>i'm not schizosaid the schizo in his schizo post
>>488949967>I'm nowhere close to 30 and I'm already better than you ever will be.You're exhibit A of what I was talking about. I was just like you when I was young and thought I had everything figured out.
>>488950257Yeah but the difference is that I've already proven what I'm capable of and I don't make dumb mistakes. Face it gramps, some people are just built different
>Djokovic vs Alcaraz finally overat last... I can dev
>>488949534>>488950257does the success of others always make you uncontrollably seethe?
>>488950461At 25 I would have given the same answer with the same conviction.
>>488950461Post game then and you will have convinced us all. We'll wait.
>>488949438Isn't that the crossover game with characters from games posted here?How will they be done?
>>488950875He can't. It goes to another school. In Canada.
>>488950781Listen fucker, it's true that I've been caught with my pants down by life more than a few times. I learned enough from those times to be able to transfer that knowledge across my entire life. Only the fool needs a lifetime of experience to learn what the perceptive person will experience once and will immediately apply to the rest of his life
>>488950875>>488951069I'll tell you what my game is only when the day comes that you actually reply to it. Until then, suck your own dicks for entertainment
>>488951317so no game then. what a surprise.
I made an AGDG theme song.I've put in a lot of work as I find it only fair, that it reflects the same amount of hard work and effort we've all put in our games over the years.It's loopable.https://voca.ro/1awN47bRG1GT
>>488951107Who's talking about a lifetime? There are diminishing returns to experience, but if you think you've figured everything out by your 20s, you're no different than any other 20something.
>>488951389This cope is getting really old. I post my game more than enough. Just keep your eyes open if your senility and the cataracts you've had since your fifties aren't making it too hard for you
>>488951420epic. I'll include it in my game with your permission.
>>488951420This is a foo fighters riff you hack
>>488951494>I've posted my game more than enoughjust not now though? this one time when it can actually save you in a debate? okay sure thing.
>>488951541I don't usually say this, but yeah, go ahead.>>488951621Woah, how did they copy me so fast?
>please please PLEASE just post your game so that we can unperson you and add you to the blacklist PLEASEhow about you post yours first if it's not that big of a deal?

Whats a good control scheme for 6 dof movement? WASD for horizontal movement, CTRL/space for vertical, mouse for pitch and yaw. Is q/e for roll good? it does not feel good desu but whats the alternative?
>>488951968I wouldn't trust someone posting any game here in this context unless it's confirmed by an established account on Twitter or wherever.
>>488952084retard you're asking me to openly associate my years of hard work with an ongoing shitflinging competition. I thought you 30+ year olds were supposed to be the smart ones here

Having massive issues with godots resource control with materials and shaders. The engine doesn't treat changes to materials/shaders as active file changes, as in the engine doesn't keep a working copy and a saved copy.

Also materials aren't getting updated when assets are reimported, you have to restart the editor to see these changes applied.The whole deal of keeping textures, materials, models in one GLTF file per object is convenient, but a nightmare to dry and deal with when you need to make changes and or revert to the default imported shaders. Also the bloat of garbage that builds up in the .godot folder, easily 30% of the files in there right now is old versions of assets, but deleting the folder breaks the all of the addons that rely on imported files to work.
>>488952231So you were lying when you said you had posted your game. Just like you are lying about actually working on one. Because you are the eternal nodev who spends his days on AGDG shitposting. We see right through you.
>>488952137You could do Q/E for vertical and hold spacebar for roll with mouse (x axis).
I don't know how to take days off. I'm so used to my days consisting of nothing but work and short breaks that I have no idea what to do when I allow myself more free time. I just end up doing the "short breaks" stuff over and over again, which is checking AGDG, twitter, youtube videos etc.
>>488952506When taking days off, go and do something outside. Go for a hike or just walk through the city for a few hours.
>>488952448He probably posted his game before, but now it would be associated with his arrogance so he can't post it.
>>488952448You need a serious brain examination and at this point I think you're acting obtuse just to get a reaction out of me. I pot my game here. I don't post my game here when someone demands that I should post it during an argument
>>488946961
Thoughts?
>>488952778nobody believes you crybaby
>>488952635I do not live in a walkable city, there's nothing much for me to see outside other than streets and cars and cement.
>>488952806This but the opposite. I am in a permanent failure state and just because other people are losing too doesn't mean I win like in sports.
>>488952890You don't need to believe me for my game to make 1 million. Your authority here isn't as impactful as you think.

>>488952806nah, it's another competitive rat race like anything else. you have to fight for funding and attention, which there is a limited amount. if everyone flocks to experience person As art, there's less people to experience art from person B etc.
>>488953447Just a sad kid with an impossible dream and a piss poor attitude which will ruin you even IF you get to the stage where people notice your game (which you don't have) and start to interact with you through forums and discord what whatever. You're not going to make it. Not because I say so but because of the failure you actually are as a person and a gamedev.
>>488953606Did you know that Dragon's Age received 40% funding from Canadian federal subsidies and that without them, it wouldve been an unprofitable flop?
>>488950173it kills me to see westerners in japan at various protests, or hosting them or whatever. Also people that don't know the language, like it's the least you can do..
>>488953606If a billion fat American tourists flock to take a photo next to person A's art, but a hundred people write philosophical essays on person B's art, whose art is more meaningful? What's even the purpose of art?Unless you're actually talking about games, which are not art but entertainment products and the goal is for them to sell.
>>488953707well you'd act the same way if you were bullied by almost the entirety of agdg. I try so fucking hard to be a dev. I will prove you wrong when I make that million and I'm coming back to laugh at you. so what if I haven't started yet. that doesnt mean I cant make it. You are just a mean bully and you've hurt my feelings.

>>488959425sorry
>>488960315I'm designing for controller support in mind, so it makes sense to set maximum possible guns at 8. Having too many guns is a waste of development resources anyways, since most players only ever use 2-3 "workhorse" weapons.

>>488941158>As opposed to moving to a 3rd world shithole to live like a king where there's less facilities and more people who can shag you.Or Australia!
>>488958798Gamedev isn't that hard. Because it's not that hard, there aren't any good reasons to give up on it. All the things that stop you are in your head, or in the environment that you place yourself in. Ego, anxiety, abusive relationships (work/life/home), buncha stuff that has nothing to do with anything, and no matter what skill you tried to learn, you'd fail until you figured yourself out. People who succeed immediately do so *despite* their immaturity. That's why there are so many one hit wonders, so many developers who spend decades after their first success barely getting anything done. Success stunts your maturity. If you're not in that boat then you're in the boat of you better figure out what's getting between you and practicing your trade cause it isn't "it's too hard".

>>488963729hey that looks cozy. anyway. Do you remember that dev that was making a 3d car game where you had to run over zombies?
>>488962520If you aren't making something new/innovative then there's no reason to make new software. It's a product that never goes away when it's consumed, the availability of it only increases with time meaning inevitably there will be overproduction until it becomes so old that it falls out of fashion. A product like roll a ball simply does not respect the customers time or acknowledge the plethora of choices that they have available.It's not something people would play even if they got it for free.

According to the biographer Joakim Garff, Kierkegaard would seize hold of the bag containing the sugar and poured sugar into the coffee cup until it was piled up above the rim. Next came the incredibly strong, black coffee, which slowly dissolved the white pyramid.” Then he gulped the whole thing down in one go.

What is a good way of managing game settings/options? Since it relates to so many different parts and mechanics my immediate thought was to just create some static/singleton class and have the scrips look up values from it, but that seems like a lot of dependency fuckery.

Does Godot have any good multiplayer features?
>>488975417Yes, when you encounter a bug, you always have to reach out to someone else for help.
>>488975417yes.There's even an addon for rollback.
>>488973682If they aren't doing the work just do it yourself.If they do the work and it sucks, keep it to yourself. There's no point in being an asshole over something stupid like school work.Going to classes isn't about learning, it's about making contacts, so you should be hiding your power level until you find people who have skills.

Does making more games make you better at gamedev?Does having a player base help your future games?What I find more often is the developer's first game being their most successful game. Of course there's examples to the contrary but since I've started paying attention, this pattern of a downward slope seems much more prevalent.

Should my first game be 2D? Or at least, really simple 3D? (i'm speaking in terms of both gameplay and graphics)
>>488978823Always 3DEven if it doesn't need to be, you can always use an orthogonal camera and present it as 2D.
>>488972000same, it's just betterkrita for when I need different style brushes and don't mind waiting for it to load

>>488979779Man, that's AI shit.
>>488979946That's because all the yesdevs left
At this point, all I really need to do is make sure the level design being made is fun and then it will be good.

I'm so sick of teams pretending to be solo devs on social media.If you're two programmers, a sound guy, and an art guy, you are NOT A FUCKING SOLO INDIE DEV STOP LYING.IT'S NOT "LOOK AT THE GAME I MADE YOU CAN DO IT TOO :DD:3XDc GANBARE ANON-KUN!!!"

I’m pricing my game at $25.

>>48898049799% of this is "textures". the character is 2D, the 3D animation of the boat is awful, the particle effect is awkward looking (it's lit but rotated towards the camera so when you look against the sun the particles are all dark and when you look away from the sun they're all bright), the environment design is nothing special.all in all I don't see why this would require a second person to make. plus the whole thing isn't even a game, it's a movie really.
>>488980073I have a job though.
>>488980874My favorite meme is when there are guys working together on some project but each of them posts individually about individual things they are doing without ever suggesting it's a team effort because they secretly don't respect each other at all.

Been trying to figure out a good length for a boomer shooter single-player campaign. Looking at past examples:Doom: 24 level campaign (excluding secret levels)Doom 2: 30 level campaign (excluding secret levels)Quake: 26 level campaign (excluding secret levels)I'm currently thinking a 16 campaign, which is noticeably shorter, but only charging $15 instead of the $50 that Doom, Doom 2, and Quake was priced at. Personally I prefer shorter campaigns anyways. Doom and Quake actually get kind of boring from how much filler they have in the middle. What's agdg think?
where the FUCK are Victorian-era naval construction and procurement sims?
>>488982667quantity over quality
>>488982667Well, hold up. How long is one level? Is it some kind of massive labyrinth, or more of a linear thing?Secrets? Easter eggs? Can you replay it ten times and still find new stuff?
>>488982667game length matters, not amount of levelshow many levels does factorio have?
how about an enemy that you can punch you so hard you leave the map you leave the game and land into a different game kek
My game redefines what it even means to be a "level"
>>488982583I don't believe you.
>>488983198make this the title screen after the tutorialhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjLp-lSpYe4
How do you guys design your levels? Do you use the engine editor and drop in assets, or do you construct everything in something like Blender and then import it? Do you think one is better than the other?
>>488981448I think he's a grifter but I doubt the regulation proposal is reasonable. I don't care enough to go read about it though
how do you make a graph curvy
>>488983198Enemies that turn into doors when you punch them, stronger punches result it better quality doors.
anyhow time for a break, get a physics break>>488983628hmmmm, how about you fall inside, or a scream can be heard when the molotov goes boom!
>>488983514You just have to, okay?
>>4889830715 once the expansion hits
>>488982583Nice try, but you are the only pedo on agdg
>>488983647you did not even say the type of game you are making. I use unity's tilemap mixed with objects placed manually
assembled a slug lookin ship
>>488983861It would mean that you have to run servers indefinitely if the game is still available or be responsible for any self-hosting tools, which means publishers will just completely remove games from circulation past their lifespans since it's a massive resource drain and legal liability. Regulation is why games are considered "services" to begin with, this would just lead to even more fuckery.
Small question:Let's say I have one thing have 5 quests tied to it. The player can choose between this one thing or other things. One of the other things has one main general quest for it that is repeatable of delivering a certain item. Should each other thing have 5 quests tied to it or is it ok that they won't have 5 quests each since choosing one locks you out of the others?
>>488983861>>488984324you two are massive retards and just love listing off made up reasons why you're right
>>488984637kekThat's what most arguments on this website feel like
A game where you play as a disgruntled otaku shooting up an anime studio, and if you succeed you then shoot up the same studio but it's adapted to handle your previous strategy by reinforcing doors that you opened before and such.
How are my UK bros deving with all the happenings right now?
>>488984736sorry I don't live in the third world so I don't care
>>488984637Tell in practical, operable terms what you think the regulation demands from developers and what developers.
>>488984736>with all the happenings>happeningsEvery single photo of the "riots" was taken on the same corner of this same street. It's like 2-3 isolated incidents across Britain, overall nothing is happening (or ever happens).
>>488984736Whoa dude, haha I remember you from old /agdg/. You had a game about a rolling cube, like 10 years ago?how'd release go? working on anything new?
>>488982667Those games were $50 in the 90s. Today they would be $10. $15 sounds too expensive for any of the boomer shooters from here.
>>488984736>google what happened>FAR RIGHT PROTESTORS CLASH WITH AUTHORITIES>FAR RIGHT THIS>FAR RIGHT THATdidn't know you had to be politically aligned to be mad about kids getting killed.
>>4889849201) games that require live service to run are disconnected from the live service once the servers shut down and players can keep playing them offline2) the developers of server based games provide tools for local hosting of servers once the central servers shut downthat's it. that's literally all it is. games should be playable without a central server babysitting you. that's completely doable
Made it so I can set areas as "zero air" so the player will slowly choke. Also want zero-g areas, but that will come later.I also made it so you can shoot out lights.
>>488985461use a bigger hitbox for the light shooting mechanic. having to line it up that exactly is antifun.
>>488984324Please don't spend misinformation.
>>488985248In the UK we have certain citizen groups like the EDL that are politically aligned, and they're the ones organizing these riots. So although the anger might span political boundaries, the riots themselves absolutely do not.Overall this whole chain of events is a nothingburger that's being used to fill an otherwise empty news cycle. There's been worse violence in the streets with hooligans fighting after football games.
>>488985258What games even fall under this? What "reasonably playable" state even means? This all reads like a rebel without a cause situation and the very existence of similar regulations is why the concept of ownership barely exists nowadays.
>>488986063every single game that has a central server that has it's filthy finger plugged into your game's butthole at all times. Remove the finger once you can no longer run the servers and we're done

>it's a circular progress day episode
>>488984251>>488983647I'm trying out Godot right now, I've seen a number of plugins for simple terrain but I'm questioning whether I should invest the time to learn blender since it seems extendible to any engine and teaches a lot of transferable skills. Right now I'm making a simple 3D FPS/horror game, but I want to have an environment that has non-smooth surfaces (think winding road through mountains) and so want more than just "place a ground plane and a bunch of assets"
>>488986197How compelling. The funniest shit is there will be equally clueless idiots reviewing this who have no idea what it's even meant for or how the market would adapt to it and I assure you it wouldn't be in your benefit.
Could anyone recommend me an inventory tutorial for unreal? Ideally I'd like something like breath of the wild. I've found plenty of them myself but they all seem extremely complicated. Is being able to get items from an environment that difficult?
>>488986197ngggh
>>488986613what's the worst case scenario? AAA companies limit their markets? AAA companies go bankrupt? Good. Let that be a lesson. Developers didn't have any problem doing all this shit back in '99. Fucking neck yourself bootlicker freak
which should I make as my first game?:a.) party multiplayer racing game with some novel mechanics that Im not that passionate for but am fairly confident I can work on impartially and consistentlyb.) atmospheric exploration game with puzzle elements with a main focus on aesthetics and creating a sense of wonder, this is a game Id be passionate about working onthe first one is what Im currently working on, and I have a much more concrete idea of what I want the game to look like by the endI feel like I should make the first game first just to gain the experience of making a game, then move on to my passion project lateralso in terms of marketability, I started the with the first one because it would sell better, but after doing some research Im finding that party games dont actually sell as well as I thought they would and that the latter game might actually be more marketable, Im not sureany thoughts? which do you think would sell better?
>>488986584A terrain mesh in blender is fine if it's not too big but anything landscape-sized will require LOD/tesselation work so you're just better off using a plugin at that point. The drawback of heightmap terrain is that you can't easily do concave shapes, I guess it ultimately depends on the scale and how handcrafted you want it to be.
>>488986584usually what you'd do is just make the basic level with boxes (grayboxing - so you can get to testing the game fast) but you can asset mash for this as well. It sounds like using a terrain plugin will be worth if they are any good for god*t.
>>488986063>>488986613can you at least watch the videos you're criticizing before you go off like an unhinged apehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w70Xc9CStoEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkMe9MxxZiI
>>488985092lol no that's literally the same game he's still working on it hahahaha
>>488987250I am very well aware of this and there's zero purpose and clarity to it, it's purely a mob effect from people who want to virtue signal about nonsensical idealisms.
>>488974279accurate
>bro you can still bust out the Dungeon Siege CD and install it today but the fact that you can't do that with games released over the last 10 years is not a problem that needs solving TAKE YOUR MEDS
>>488987031which one of these would (You) rather play?
>>488986613Oh, the poor market, what will we do without Ass Creed 57: The Quest for George Floyd's Fent?Why are you spending a single second of your life defending the status quo? Seriously.Say the entire gaming market crashes and Bobby Kotick is eaten by a pack of wolves. What would be lost exactly? What is the risk in trying to improve consumer rights?
I legitimately think agdg is dead. Zero passion about anything. It's like a gallery of breathing corpses repeating the same old jokes for the billionth time
>>488986429it's a fun song
>pixel objects are not grid-alignedwhy do people think this is okay?
>>488987924Imagine championing for government regulation and saying anyone else is defending the status quo in the same sentence, eurangutans are braindead.Also not gamedev, fuck off tourists.
>done with all the stuff on my todo list, time to work on new stuff>get writer's block and don't know what to start with, miss out on multiple days just putting it away>finally break out mspaint and plan the layout in a rough draft>motivation immediately surges and can't wait to get started implementing itWe're so fucking back
>>488988421hell yeah, go gettem!
>>488987997I am very passionate about some things.
>>488988417Status quo can be defined as "the current state of affairs".Right now, the status quo is no government regulation.You are uninformed at best and a third world 72 IQ retard at worst. Good day, sir.
You know why I despise osur? He's a leader a doesn't stand for anything. A figurehead. Bland and inoffensive. The inner circle used to work a lot more smoothly when ithiro and orthello and the cattower nigga were still in charge. God the new inner circle is such an embarassment. Bunch of faggy zoomer normies without a single thought of their own
>>488988417It is very gamedev related. As gamedevs, we should absolutely support the killing of games in order to reduce the competition our own games will face. Why would anyone buy our games if they could still play a working game from 10 years ago? We need to kill games, and kill them even faster.
any games with this vibe?
>>488989294fuck off back to /v/ nodev
>>488988856it was apathy that killed the /agdg/
>make a fun little free web snake game where people hop in and eat each other>5 years later close down the game because I just can't justify the server costs anymore>later receive a call from the EU saying they are sending lawyers after me saying I'm breaking the lawwtf guys? help
>>488987924>What is the risk in trying to improve consumer rights?The risk is letting government fuck with gamedevs, opening the door to far more draconian measures. If you have enough life experience, you realize every time the government steps in things get worse.
>>488989446what law did you break?
>>488989294nolgorb's ordeal
>>488989393i just downloaded unity, i want to know what my competition is like
>>488989779hate speech, some guys kept making windmills with the snakes
>>488987881its hard to say, theyre not directly comparableI will say Im less hesitant to buy and play a multiplayer game that doesnt have real progression than I am a single player story/exploration/puzzle gameespecially if Im buying that multiplayer game in order to play with friends, like I did with lethal company
>>488983876https://easings.net/
>>488989789Looking forward to your game releasing in 15 years
>>488988856>>488989403The worst part is that no one even thinks to blame the inner circle for the sorry state of the general when the reality is that they are the ones who everyone looks towards to see what behaviour is acceptable. The current inner circle are limp-wristed wimps who can't keep the order for a single fucking hour. The place became infested with retards and nodevs because they felt right at home bottom feeding off a clique of zoned-out enablers/agdg/ is deteriorating and you don't think to look to the one group which exists to stop that from happening? Use your brains people
>>488987031b is both much easier and comfier to dev, racing AND multiplayer sounds like a nightmare
>>488989551Draconian measures for what? Right now we are at "you will own nothing and you will be happy".I'm willing to consider your lolbertarian concerns if you provide an example of something negative that could happen regarding video game consumer rights if the government were to declare that digital games are goods and thus subject to consumer protection.Also, consider that we got Steam refunds in a similar way and the world didn't end.
Why does this guy always reply to his own posts lmaoWho does he think he's fooling? Himself?
>>488989851you didn't do it. otherwise they could go after a company that makes pens because people draw shit with pens.
>>488989294google the witness
>>488989551companies shouldn't have rights. If we need to call in the government for once to protect CONSUMER RIGHTS mind you which can backfire but that doesn't matter when it's one of the few times it's a win for the people, not for corporations. The initiative aims to make corporations stop shutting down access to games. Explain how that could ever get twisted you fucking freak
>>488990023what inner circle? the discord is just the same old circlejerk of people who don't even post here anymore, funnily what people call the inner circle nowadays are talented, relatively new blood which is what the general needs
>>488990023>The worst part is that no one even thinks to blame the inner circle for the sorry state of the general when the reality is that they are the ones who everyone looks towards to see what behaviour is acceptableIC devs always post progress. i see Kalemonvo encouraging other Diablo-like developers all the time. that's the behavior that's killing the thread?
>>488990146He's been doing it for a while. You can always tell when it's him. It's also fun to reverse search his images and find 400 posts dating back to 2022 talking about the same shit. What do you call this mental illness? Or is this just peak loneliness?
>>488990146it's called a subthread, newnigger marnix tourist>>488990448And what have they done to keep /agdg/ healthy? All that I've seen them do is prop themselves up while they actively shit up the general and enable shitposters. They don't engage with most other developers, which was something that the old inner circle used to do all the time. And to top it all off they act like they are too good to care
>>488987924>What is the risk in trying to improve consumer rights?You can thank the EU for you haring to click cookie consent banners for the last 10 years. A retarded law that makes no sense written by boomers for nobody that made the Web objectively worse for everyone.
>>488990146One of my favorite /agdg/ moments was when I posted a screenshot of his YEARS of nodev crabbing from the archive and he had a complete meltdown and changed all his filenames in a panic.
>>488990614>Kalemonvo encouraging otherwho the fuck are you kidding? Where are all of these "other Diablo-like developers". The only consistent one right now is plunderground who is also an inner circle member (big surprise)Kalemonvo doesn't engage with anyone's progress. He did it one time with azurdev when I had to bully him into it to get him to do it
>>488990747>6 pages
>>488990726That's not even remotely related to video games and is a mild annoyance at most.Like, wow, you have to click once.
>>488990747I didn't realize someone else did the same thing.I wonder why this guy hates tokdev so much.
>>488990626Is this Cris?>>488990697>They don't engage with most other developers,You don't either.>And to top it all off they act like they are too good to careThey're yesdevs who are actively working on good games, they also have a right to not interact if they don't want to
>>488990957Tokdev replies to all of my progress posts, jealous? Also wtf is plunderground?
>>488991187because you're in the inner circle retard
>>488990626alexa, play All By Myself by Celine Dion
>>488991305I’m not, I don’t use discord and no one here even knows the name of my game kek
>>488990747i remember about a dozen or so threads ago there was a guy going on about how all DD57 games were absolutely awful and need to be majorly overhauled except for nolgorb and ctesiphon, i'm convinced it's this same retard

>>488937295A game where you have editor access to change the game world in real time
these threads have become utterly patheticyes I'm talking to both sides right now
>>488991054>I wonder why this guy hates tokdev so muchThere's two real options:>he's one of hundreds of wannabe game devs who's fantasized about making his own video game for years but is too lazy/unskilled to complete such a task and feels angry and humiliated in the presence of someone who achieve that goalor>he thinks he's "trolling", completely oblivious to the fact that a mentally healthy person would have gotten bored of the bit after a day or two instead of developing a fixation spanning multiple years with complete strangers on the internetI'm not sure which answer is worse.
>>488992025Trainwiz left so he needs a new target
>>488992025or I'm being completely genuine. (You) overlooked that possibility
>>488992025the schizo got really fixated after osur made a demo day stream with friends titled "the inner circle", hence why he keeps bringing it up
>>488991628It definitely is, you can always tell when it's him. A smart person would change his writing style from post to post to hide that fact that it's the same guy posting multiple times and samefagging.Judging by the fact that he's incapable of doing that I'd wage he's an ESL third worlder, most likely a russian or some flavor of south American bitter at superior western devs.
>>488992275I listed off the inner circle members in a thread which made them retaliate. Keep trying to rewrite history it won't work
>>488992275That's a good point, I wonder if osur regrets inventing the term inner circle. Who am I kidding, I doubt he cares.
heh, videogames
>>488992275this was the biggest mistake in the history of /agdg/, the thread quality has dropped off a cliff since
>>488992574I thought it was funny, plus I got to play Busted Metal with them.
>>488992562I can always tell you're the same person simping for the inner circle when I start criticizing them because you always try the exact same cheap tactic of baiting me by saying that osur invented "inner circle"clever tactic but you made it clear that there might only be 1-2 people total buttblasted about my efforts, not the whole general like you want me to think
>>488991049You wanted examples>That's not even remotely related to video gamesGoalposts: moved>Like, wow, you have to click once.I chose this because it's one that everyone has encountered, and even in this simple relatively benign example you downplay it with "one click". It's not one click, it's millions of clicks because they're on every website. Also if you build a website yourseld it means you have to take the time to implement the cookie consent banner, time wasted solving a problem that doesn't have to exist. And then there's the complications that arise for you and your website if some retarded boomer actually clicks no, and then wonders why they can't log into your website, so they generate support tickets and more man hours spent for a problem that doesn't need to exist and only does thanks to a retarded piece of regulation.Even this tiny example you think it's just "one click" and there's hidden depths that you don't even consider because you can't see beyond your own nose.
>>488992952>you always try the exact same cheap tactic of baiting me by saying that osur invented "inner circle"did you miss the post about his twitch stream called "the inner circle"? How else would the term have come to be? I don't get it.
>>488992952Qrd?Who's this osur faggot and what's the inert cockring?
>>488993153The inner circle schizo came first which eventually led Osur to own the term for his Kalemonvo Discord stuff. Meanwhile, a lot of long standing aggy daggy devs started joining it.The inner circle schizo memed a real inner circle into existence.
>>488946949I made it 7 hours at least
>>488993565there always was an inner circle, except the older ones were better
>inert cockringnot his best work
>>488989294landsword and nolgorb
>>488993662you can do it sis!! baby steps!
>>488991049Wrong. I have to click 'store no cookies' over and over again.They need to invent some way to remember my choice, it's insane. Like how hard could it be not make me click the popup every time
>>488993565i always assumed the inner circle is just a term that came up to describe something which already existed but without a name. this is a power of names type situation
>>488993565He named his stream after the inner circle meme one time and that was enough for the schitzos to latch on to
>>488993869I'm a different anon. That's my work. Should've slapped a ™ on that. But theoretically, all cockrings are inert. Or else they'd react with things and change or blow up.Anyways, what's this gay talk about inner circles and these retard namefags?
>>488994136The regulation didn't regulate intentionally misleading or naggy popups. Whoops!
Can anyone even name every single "inner circle" game? Or is just any regular gamedev here automatically inner circle?
>>488935721Sometimes I come here to remind myself to never try to make a game of any kind. I think you guys are just doing what I'm doing, but you have to write funny lines of nonsense in boxes and I don't
>>488994337>I'm a different anon.suuuure you are
>>488994136The way they store your choice is... with cookies that you refuse to consent to. Congratulations you've inflicted an ironic punishment on yourself for your own retardation
>>488994232I thought it meant the inside of a donut...
>>488990726It could have been implemented as a global option on the browser side that would get sent to sites through the request header or whatever
>>488994337>Inner circleOr inert cockring, kek, is a bunch of woke devs who keep shitting up /agdg/, pretending to be some kind of elite devs.Kinda cringe. They have a discord
>>488994424Maybe the real inner circle was the progress we made along the way.
>>488994424Do you submit to DD often and provide feedback on the event and thread?If do do these things, aka make game, then you might just find an invitation to the inner circle in the mail one day, along with a complementary inert cock ring.
>>488994479Yep. I promise.
>>488992574Honestly it feels like a whole cascade of thread enshittening things happened at once, between crumble's nonstop underspace schizoing for months the inner circle nonsense and the pedo reply spammer it just gets worse
>I'm a different anon.
>>488994704That's the outer inner circle, the inner inner circle requires Eric to personally message you, congratulate you on your game, say how proud he is of you, and then he invites you to the outer inner inner circle. Then after a while you get promoted to the inner circle. Then it's just a case of getting into the upper inner circle.

>>488990747Why does one of your "favorite amateur gamedev general moments" have nothing to do with gamedev?
>>488995121why is bokube not listed there
>>488995121Now the schizo is going to send pipe bombs to those poor devs, nice job
>>488995316that's based, you get free press coverage for /agdg/
>>488995238no you won't because the quality of your game doesn't matter. if they don't want you on the list you're not getting in
>>488995274bokube is a shunned project it will continued to be hated by everyone and epically if it fails on release. If it somehow succeeds when it releases you will see every single shitposter flip and say they always liked bokube and they were the ones shitting on it for years but this outcome is not likely and would be a strange timeline.
>the "inner circle" is all the best games from this generalOh, so this is really just way for some pour soul to cope with his jealousy. I get it now.
>>488952781What is this?
>>488995274Bokube, Crumble, and a few others are notorious and aren't welcome in agdg. the IC banned them
Personally, I'll just ignore all faggoty little clubs outside of /aggydaggy/ you fuckers are too much fun
>>488994627A solution where you basically just hope that every website that implements a cookie consent banner rigidly adheres to the latest changes in the http spec. Good luck with that. Webshitters are out there returning API errors under 200 status codes, and you think grannie's baking recipe website cookie consent banner is going to check your request headers? The banner is probably loaded by soke copy-pasted Javascript that doesn't even know where it is before running.It's too late, the Web is too shit now and can never be fixed.

>>488990103Im well aware the first game is *technically* more difficult but thats all the more why its a good way to gain a base of technical skills for when I make my next gameIve been programming for like 10 years on and off, have a solid base in linear algebra (which has been helpful so far with the physics) and I have experience with network/socket programming so I think its all within my capabilities

>>488994935It really honestly fell apart when trainwiz left
>>488996071That's awesome! Have you implemented all the features that you wanted to, or is there still more?
>>488995967The cookie banners are already implemented, and nobody's going to change them to listen to a http header unless they're compelled to by law. If you're going to change the law just repeal it and then you don't need any of this elaborate bullshit, you just stop having cookie consent banners.

who elected the incel circle?
>>488991385So much screaming, screeching, and samefagging all from jealousy.Maybe if the schizo actually posted their game in these threads instead of try to stir shit, they'd get some views or comments.
>>488996436There has literally never been a good Sonic game, not even the originals. The entire "appeal" of Sonic from the beginning was that it was Mario for people who were too poor to own a Nintendo system. That's the only reason why the Sonic series became popular, because people wanted a Mario-like and were willing to play some shitting platformer with a gimmick that would could run really fast (even if 80% of the levels weren't designed to take advantage of this mechanic). Then systems evolved into 3D and the Sonic series completely lost its way.
>>488996107Discord is the death of forums in general.
>>488996662>OK the regulation I'm in favor of made everything worse... Clearly we need more regulation to fix itKill yourself, communist.
>>488996613inner circle games are easily identified by them being shitty/boring but extremely overdiscussed or highly praised here. those are the only conditions
my game has 10/10 combat but it's only like 10% of the game because there's all this boring big idea bullshit around it that I hope will become fun eventually

>>488937295Fuck experimental ideas, I want most of the mechanics to just be good, and then the actually creative parts can be interesting and compelling
Admit it. Japanese cartoons killed /agdg/

>>488996962https://youtu.be/7qrRzNidzIc?si=nNKZP4MFlHOBG4sM&t=54
>>488997091then how do explain that games like robotemplar and (a)woken get so much praise?
>>488984272I'm gonna finish assembling the ships soon thankfully
>>488996751As someone who was too poor for a Nintendo, I can attest that as a child I just wanted to do the loop-de-loops.Sonic was always a platformer where speed was a reward for mastery of the levels, but they fell for their own gimmick and started to focus too much on speed, and the sad truth is that speed/traversal games look good but aren't fun.Speed games should join the list of agdg cursed games alongside mech and tactics games. You might be able to make a middling success like crumble but you will have to spend 18 hours per day spamming reddit and hope that enough people are fooled by the videos and gifts into thinking it'll be fun to wishlist and buy it
>>488997332so here's one of the more interesting agdg games. why doesn't this get more attention? it certainly looks like a more finished game than half the inner circle games
>>488996901Reduce your scope until the game is just the player and 10,000 enemy NPCs in a box.
>>488996171why?>>488996240I need to add player states for getting hurt and dying, rings, splines for player movement and grind rails.I also want to add 2D gameplay mode and item boxes.>>488996436Shadow Generations looks nice for a Switch game
Just a reminder that by now you should have gotten an email regarding the winter meet-up week.

I wanna develop a game but would rather hire a dev for it. Fiverr is a bunch of scams, is it possible to find reasonable priced talents in these threads?
>>488998135Hello sir good evening to you I produce very high quality game for you at competitive price. Please be letting me know if you want me to be developing the game for you, sir.

I always thought defense was a bit useless in rpg games, so I came up with this formula. What do you think about it? Obviously, A is attack, D is defense and P is the base power or attack multiplier.If A equals D you receive half damage. If your defense is 0 you simply receive full damage instead of infinite damage.
>>488997332the difference between the ship art and characters art is damning
>>488998398>A = 0>D < 0lol
>>488998268>>488998271sirs, there can only be one... you know what you must be doing
ASTER ProgressI fixed my dodge, so it now correctly snaps the character in the direction of the input regardless of what direction they were facing beforehand.I found a pretty funny bug along the way; surprised and how robust the default IK is out of the box.Next up, I need to make an input buffer using an array.
>>488998268>>488998271This is just the average experience but thanks for the laugh. Although you have to learn vietnamese racism speak now that they are taking over the market
>>488998068I'll hire you to code my donutsteel in exchange for unlimited high fives
>>488998768>Although you have to learn vietnamese racism speak nowFuck, any examples?
>>488998562If you move the terms around A = 0 is not undefined unless D = 0 is too, and negative defense makes no sense in my game.
>>488998583>no "do the needful"
>>488998398can someone explain what im looking at here
>>488998895
Is there any hope for him?
>>488998398It's probably fine but you should test it instead of theory craftingI'd personally stay away from significant linear scaling, but I also understand that big numbers late game are part of the RPG allure

>>488999198why do I feel like somehow me and Jon Blow will save Indie Gaming and when I make my game it'll be like a Christmas movie where he also makes a great game and he also realizes the true meaning of Christmas?

This is the only hobby/creative pursuit that I know of where it's possible to be 99% done with a project only for the entire thing to be fucked at the last moment by an engine limitation
The AA studio I work at likes to hire from employee reference, it's a pretty chill and fun place to work. Anyhow I'm told we're about to start putting ads up looking for some positions, specifically Lead Game Design. Main office on the west coast but a number of guys work remotely. I'm assuming US only but I could check into that.Also don't be put off by the title, it's essentially "idea guy" lol. Thought I'd mention here as a way of giving back to the community that's helped me get where I am today. Competitive wage, pretty good benefits and some employer matching thing I don't use, etc. Hit me with a couple of your best ideas and I'll let you know if it seems like it would be worth your time to pursue.
>>489000126if you're using a black box, I guess so.
>car combat games>ship combat games>plane combat games >no train combat games Surely worthy of at least a turn-based deckbuilder, no? Collect different rolling stock and use them to battle other trains running parallel?
>>488999693Chess set. It can be built on top of the blocks system.
I want to make an h-game but can't draw. Should I make it in twine, which would be easier, or in RPG Maker with the idea that I can maybe commission an artist for character art later?
>>489000258turn based deck builders never once appealed to me.Why would I want to play with virtual cards? Cards are meant to represent something and they're an abstraction which doesn't have to be present in a medium where you can just draw what the card represents.
>>489000257this is why I'm speedrunning the development of my first 4-5 games so I can make some money (about 2-3 million should be enough) so I can develop an in-house engine
>>489000185>give me your ideas so I can steal them and become game designer
>>489000381You can always fill in the gaps with programmer art and find an artist later if it goes somewhereThe process of making programmer art will also improve your art as your practice more and more, to a degree
>>489000258https://store.steampowered.com/app/1469610/Last_Train_Home/
>>489000501What? You can make an engine right now.Seems you've been severely crabbed.If you deny my words now then you're going to embrace the thorough crabbing that has been dealt to you.
>>489000627no I can't. I'm not a programmer lmao. You need a team of 10 people minimum to develop a company engine, especially a 3D one
>>489000126Only if you're a retard, you don't build 99% of the time machine before checking if flux capacitors are even real All gameplay-critical features should be within the first 20% of the game you finish
>>489000258i've also seen another train deckbuilder than what anon posted, i think it's already a thing>>489000425they still function like cards in the games, with draw and discard piles. why fix what isn't broken?
>>489000258The train idea actually seems pretty cool. I had a similar idea with a pirate ship autobattler thing where your units are members of your crew and cannons/flags/etc. are buffs.
>>489000853>>489000126>All gameplay-critical features should be within the first 20% of the game you finishHonestly, yeah.What kind of psycho would work on content before systems?
can we make a 3d detective game in godot together
>>488999989With attack - def you have the problem of 0 damage/negative damage, which is fine if that's what you want, but I don't want that.
>>489001072I don't want an engine that looks like that. If I'm ever going to oversee the development of an engine it needs to be capable of a lot more to justify the time investment
>>489000185https://arch.b4k.co/vg/search/text/%22The%20aa%20studio%20i%20work%20at%22/Why is this general like this
>>489001171Depends. Are you serious about it?
>>489001171Porn detective game might be interesting
>>489001290serious how...
>>488998398This is shit. The formula used is less important than the type of rng you're using. Are high or low values equally as likely to occur as middling values or is there a bell curve? Pic related. Just go to >>>/tg/ and look at some existing ttrpg systems. They tend to have to be designed well because they can't hide behind gimmicks like videogames can. Then if you're going to copy one don't get sued.
>>489001290My ideas are very serious
my game works :)
>>489000425Well you get both. Hopefully the game actually renders what the card does.Also if you don't like cards then use some other item like a gem or something. It's the same thing. The fun of the game revolves around finding synergies and creating a good build.
>>489001437There's no RNG. I think RNG is absolute shit in damage calculation.
>>489001920>>489001920>>489001920>>489001920
>>489001856>no rng in an rpgMight as well not have stats either, then.
>>489002049You might have a very narrow definition of rpg, anon.
>>489002412Every game now has "rpg elements" so that players will continue suckling on the progression dopamine teat for longer. But generally I consider rpgs to be games that rely heavily on rng and character stats because actual player dexterity-based input like aiming isn't really available. So the only way to make the game interesting is to have rng. Also computer rpgs are decended from tabletop rpgs where dice are the main method for deciding the outcomes of player actions.
