Marmo... it's finally real...
How could it flop so bad?
>Marmoreal finally releases>trainwiz can't resist selfposting and making it all about him
Marmoreal? More like Noappeal
Marmoreal is real. Holy kino!
>>491916228Think I'm doing pretty well so far.Looks like I get a download about 9% of the time someone view a page.
>>491917229Why are you being weird?
>>491917598not falling for your bait trainwiz, today is about Marmo
>>491917537what gaym
>>491917190>can't see the ui from the background>dei character named chio>game title page and screenshot are the same place>desert color palette>game name is a four letter word making it impossible to marketi could keep going
grabbed one of the marmoreal steam keys from /v/ no, I will not be installing the game
>MarmoUNreal
>>491917229You're the one bringing this up. What the flying fuck is wrong with you?
>>491917958Reee then why did you grab it I could have grabbed it and I'd install and play it
toasting in this historical bread
>>491917823That's account wide. So 4 titles, 1 of them browser which doesn't even count for downloads. A majority of it is coming from 2 games.
>>491918062Unrequited gay crush. Notice how he cannot, ever, stop bringing him up.
>>491918085just wanted to leave a negative review
I am very unhappy that Marmoreal is going to hit 10 reviews so quickly.Crabs, assemble in crab Discord for assessment, cope and negative spin planning!
>>491917190They didn't use pixel fonts
>>491918123Idk how to tell you this without sounding mean by I released a shartformer on newgrounds like 10 years ago that had better numbers then this and I made it with sloppa assests
>>491918548Marmoreal has 100% positive reviews you imposter!!
>>491853268I just started adding a Metal backend for my renderer API. I really like it, it's really nice to work with.
>>491853268Vulkan. Low level memory management and multi-threading support.Earliest supported NVIDIA card is the 650.I'm building a 650 retro box to make sure my Vulkan game runs good on it.
>>491918548>he doesn't know his review wouldn't count
I need to crunch to make a playable demo for demoday.Hopefully by posting this I will feel more dedicated and compelled.
did a lot of optimization stuff so that now I can run a game with 32 cars without any fps drops. the sneaky performance drain was the trail renderers I was using for skid marks etc.. they dropped the game down to like 10fps.>vid related is with 32 enemies>>491916228>https://store.steampowered.com/app/1484940/Marmoreal/congrats on the release marmodev!
>>491919124
>>491918707Comparing a flash game autoplay autoembed website with something that requires you to download to desktop.Also, of course someone is going to have better performance.>I have 2,000 youtube subs.>Oh yeah, well I have 40k subs.>Oh really I have 1.2 million subs, suck on that.>Pfft, I'm Linus Sabastian.>*Mr. Beast lands in helicopter.* I heard we were talking about subscriber numbers.
>>491919379
This game is so lewd. Why does Marmo insist that it is innocent and pure?
>>491919802Love between girls is the purest.
>>491919802Marmo is a pervert who gets off on pretending to be innocent.
>>491919802>>491919892This. You must understand.
>>491919124Is this not Demolition Racer with Rocket League movement?>If it isn't, then it should be.
Marmo deserves a reward for finishing his game. Much better than being stuck devving forever.
>>491919124How optimized is the sand deformation? Are you using the second camera with shader + particle system method?
>>491920345It's in early access, so even after all this time it's still not done
>>491919124This game takes place in a desert now? No more roads?
>>491920482...And that's a good thing!
>>491920482Early access is objectively, better for a game**If you release in full afterwards.
>>491920543is this dingodev's new game
>>491919327yah bud>>491920149its basically that. plan is to make levels fully destructible + cars will be like rocket league-ish>>491920370pretty optimized. uses a custom render texture setup that updates a 2k texture 20 x second>>491920501its just a test level
>>491920482Will Marmo abandon the game and move on with his life or will he chain himself for another ten years to release out of EA?
>>491920685I thought he was making another furry platformer.
I can't wait for Marmoreal 2!
>>491920543whoa I love this.
how many wishlists did marmo have before the launch?
>>491917936>>game name is a four letter word making it impossible to marketReally, why is that a problem?
>>491921261Because i'm stupid
See, that's the benefit you get from making your own art or having one artist make your art instead of buying assets.When I see a DingoDev game, I can tell by how the characters are made, that it is a DingoDev game.premade assets, never ever.
>>4919211512.8k
I set out to make a simple game, but it turned out to be very complex and mechanics-driven. I can see why farming sims copy each other 1:1 so much. Developing innovative mechanics is painstaking.
>>491916228>SteamI have Windows 7 and can't launch Steam.If he wants me to play his slop, he needs to release on GOG or Itch.io and other platforms
>>491917520>>491917794>>491917995This mostly does what I want, I guess my main issue is that the house objects themselves will be static in terms of number and location so it feels like a hassle to try to programmatically generate and link them as opposed to just being able to place them down in editor and give them an entry in some sort of hardcoded dictionary that'll innately have references upon startup and keep them through scene loads, instead of finding them again every time. Maybe I'm just being retarded. Appreciate the help though.
>>491921334But nobody cares about Dingodev outside of /agdg/.
>>491921390>3k wishlists>30 salesI fucking TOLD you retards that it’s a 1% conversion rate of wishlists to sales but noooooo I was “crabbing” and the real number was supposedly 30%. Fucking give me a break
>>491921623>there's so few win7 devs here that you know immediately which dev this is
>>491921663I like his style.
>>491921663I care about dingo dev even outside AGDG.
>>491920149>Rocket League movementPlease no.>Chivalry comes out>unique melee sword combat>nerds sink 5,000 hours into it>Mordhau comes out>5,000 hour Chivalry nerds dominate>Chivalry II comes out>10,000 hour Mordhau+Chiv nerds dominateRocket League is an actual esport, the last thing you want is to log into a fun car combat game on day one, join a lobby and then some 30,000 hour SSL RLCS pro player immediately double flip resets your car into the ground while shooting you in the face with a rocket launcher.Although having such a large playerbase that could easily transfer their skills over to this game would probably be in the dev's interest, though he'd have to implement skill-based matchmaking so that all the new players don't just get filtered, and that's something AAA studios can't even get right.
2D or 3D which is better?
>>491921719Want some cheese to go with that whine
>>491919084just checking anon, are you already working on your game or still shitposting?
>>491921663i have the saem problem, how do fix ?
:: Project Nortubel ::progress :: Dirlindu.
>>491921875>whiningNope just speaking truth to (lack of) power
>>491921957Make good games? Dingodev has excellent style, but his gameplay sucks.
>>491921334For me, it's the jank camera.
>>491922035>DinduHe should be black as night thougheverbeit
>>491921957Post outside this circlejerk. You can't make any meaningful connections here. You can't meet possible teammates here. You can't market here.>>491922092Crab answer.
>>491921720For the record, I'm not being mean or spiteful, I just have a very very limited band of games I can or want to play
>>491922339Marketing shit games is putting lipstick on a pig.
>>491922339but i like my mentally unstable deviant frens
>>491922625this place is great. just make game and post progress.maybe make YouTube devlogs as well.
>tfw too retarded to implement a saving systemthink i'll just buy easy save from the asset store... will probably end up saving money from all these hours i won't waste
>>491923124If you're using anything with C#, you can basically serialize all existing objects and do a state dump. It's crude and ineffective, but it works.Core stuff like position, buffs, time, money, etc are worth saving. Things like map data are not.
>>491916228Marmoooooooooooooooooo! What's the plan now? Have you decided it yet, like how long it'll be in early access.>>491919802She's so pretty why can't I just bonk her over the head and take her home as my new wife?
>>491923124Write to memory / Read from memory.You can do it, the logic behind it is not complicated.
scene where I play chess against the bug which is messing up my game.
The last thread had 763 posts22 of those were progress posts3 of those were nortubel1 was cris4 were some guy trying to texture a rockMarmo was mentioned over 100 times.You must post progress NOW.
>>491923124literally just write the shit you want into a file
>>491924327I can't make any progress I'm refreshing nonstop so I won't miss any keys
>>491924327When I post progress I either get ignored or told that my game looks like a Diablo 4 clone, it got boring
>>491924327>4 were some guy trying to texture a rockall me. imagine not being an artfag, appeal wins every day
>>491924327marmascusnortucrisdinkube
>>491921261For me personally I find all these short game titles, especially neologisms that don't mean anything outside the context of the game, just all become a blur.
>>491924327i'd have newer progress but i spent the last 6 hours watching devs play marmoreal in discord
>>491923124Easy Save is one of the better assets you can buy. It's lightweight, flexible and useful for almost any game. By using it, you will understand how a well-designed saving system is structured, as well. I am now working on a non-Unity side project and my attempt at a saving system is not far off from a 1:1 recreation of ES3.
>>491921261it's funny to think that as time goes on there'll be less game titles available basic titles like Doom, Blood, Diablo, Gothic, Heretic, Thief etc. in the end there'll only be made-up words that don't even mean anything
>>491924803I will be king of the agdg orblikes, despite being black balled by the inner circle
>>491925147post your orblike? it gets you automatic access to tier 3 of the incel square
>>491924327
Just created this game idea, feel free to steal it and make it bettera newspaper editor is working to write a story on a corporation polluting the town's riverat the end of act 1 we reveal that someone's about to publish news of his affair (so that's the family done, wife wanting a divorce)act 2 / 3 is finding out who wants to expose him, all while he races to expose the corporation
>>491924575>or told that my game looks like a Diablo 4 cloneYeah I used to have sex with girls but they kept telling me my dick was really big and they loved me. It got boring.
>>491924575promoting the crab who came up with that one
>>491925438Sounds more like a book idea.
I'm gonna be honest, I don't deserve to be successful, I don't deserve anything but misery.
I'm gonna be honest, I deserve to be successful, I don't deserve anything but success.
>>491925840If you don''t start your game by the setting you ngmi. This ain't the 70s anymore, honey.
>>491925438change it to a Kotaku editor writing a story about crunch at a game studio and somebody is threatening to expose him saying homophobic things when he was an edgy 16 year old and you've got Game of the Year
>>491917190honestly i had it pre-typed that it's because its 15 dollars but checked out the steam page but its 20 dollars LOLalso you lied its at 277 reviews so im fucking wrong apparently a 20 dollar pixel game can sel
happy birthday marmoreal
>>491925438any idea can work, if you have game design fundamentals.Your idea could work by example if you put the winning condition as river pollution lowering beyond a certain point.And the lose condition something like corporation being allowed by the goverment to not have any legal consequences.Then you could use a worker mechanic from worker board games, to gain evidence as photos and reports of dead fishes.The dificulty could be from managing your time, similar to animal crossing, and the fact your workers have a limited number of actions.Plus the company could sent enemy workers to put issues with your workers.I think your idea has more potential if you make it a team animal crossing JRPG type of game, and make the MC being the editor of the newspaper.
>>491924327sup I haven't visited this general in over a year now I think. just finished texturing a satellite for my game over the weekend
>>491926407nice NI sats
I have not masturbated or watched porn in 2 months
t-the day will come when i release my game, and all the aggy daggers will cheer on me, and i'll buy a cake to celebrate, and i'll get al positive reviews, and streamers will beg me for keys, and and
>>491926407Literally unity asset store slop lol
>>491926534Good
>>491924327working on tutorial
I'm gonna be honest, It is what it is.
>>491926637I have so many plans for fun activities to do with AGDG when I finally release my game.
>>491926687Is this that alchemikal game that doesn’t tell you how to switch between your scythe and pistol and expects you to magically know all controls and mechanics without any introduction?
>>491927053do you know what a tutorial is
>>491926534I jerked off 4 times in the past 24 hours...
>>491927152Do you know how to make a game that people actually enjoy playing?
>>491927207>porn addict>posts tranime>likely agp freakThank you for reminding why I must not fall to temptation
>>491924327Fine, I'm working on the ui shown when you click on a ship.
>>491926652that's hurtful. I don't think so. unity asset store 3d stuff is generally synty low poly faceted core. or maybe photoreal attempts (both good and bad).
I have nothing except an idea of a stupid fatbuff rude pinecone knight who's extremely protective of his forest town of pinecone people, and has a naive little sister who's kind, friendly to outsiders and curious about the outside world. I will create 3d models of these characters and see if I come up with more ideas and a game eventually comes out of it.
>game release is sandwiched right between marmo and nolgorbIs it over for me? big ups to both of them, I wish them both a million sales
>>491927207why?
>>491926718>put your heart into everything you do even if it nets you nothing in return, at least you grew as a person>"it is what it is">never try, accept defeat, give up>"it is what it is"There's a big difference between these two. I hope you fall into the former.
>>491927429Just teasin it gives me KSP vibes (compliment)
>>491926534How do I stop molesting myself for 30 minutes of funny tingles then a big spurt of dopamine or whatever deep into my brain pussy? Also will you contrive a reason why you can only go adventuring with three guys at a time and the rest of the band needs to stay home masterful sage?
>>491927465>marmo>million sales>lookin like about 30, many of which were free keys given to fellow discord trannies
>>491926534I'm currently trying to talk myself out of spending several hundred dollars on a larger than life titcow sex doll torso. I just need something I can fuck like an animal and blast loads into between dev sessions to keep myself productive, otherwise I sit there looking at porn for hours with my dick in my hand.
>>491927429The design lack something that make it interesting. Maybe it will be better with the whole. Compare with my probe for my space game.
>>491924327No.
>>491928032thats a penis
>>491928090beautiful progress
>>491928090Nice Project Zomboid clone.
Masturbation is sexual abuse. A person is causing damage to a person's body and psyche for sexual gratification
>>491928090I like that it turns off the snapping when you're unable to place the object. It's hard to tell just from watching, but I feel like it's be really annoying if it kept the snapping on.
>>491927952touch grass unironically
>>491928032that's cool in that it's not intuitive at all. I'd first think of it as a comms array maybe. good design if you're trying for something more alien. I tried to keep the satellite as classic as possible for immediate recognition, it's in my trailer only for a short shot. I agree that it's not an interesting hard surface design in and of itself
>>491926407what is your game?
>>491928276>A person is causing damage to a person's bodyI'm not sure if you mean literal damage, but in my case I've been jerking off 3-4 times a day for the past 20 years and I've damaged by dick so badly over time that it bends to the left at over 45 degrees. Suffice to say I've also had death grip syndrome for years, which has only led to me jerking off even more aggressively and causing even more tissue damage.
>born autistic, not a sociopathAnd just like that, my chances of making it have vanished.
>>491928339ok smartass, now what?
>>491928851holy shit
I finished playing through Marmoreal. It's a solid game, but too short.
>>491929595How many hours though? What do you do at the end?
>>491929595Glad you liked it friend! I will make it longer!
>>491929704Have you cracked 40 sales yet?
>>491928186Thank you>>491928259With blackjack>>491928329Indeed, I give credit to my source material for this one.
>>4919296986.6hrs, but I wrote a lot of feedback and late lunch with the game running to inflate my playtime so the review looks better.
Off for shower toil.
>>491929704I love you Marmo.When I'm not a broke neet I promise I'll buy your game. You did a good job with the trailer.
>>491929981Reported to steamSo the game realistically has 2-3 hours and he’s charging $15 for it? And it took him 10 years? This is genuinely blowing my mind lmao
>>491917190You lost me at tactical RPG
>>491930251Where is YOUR game?
>>491929981>$15 for ~2 hours of playtime
How do I make my jump to be less like left and more like right?
>>491929286why did you post your black hand?
>>49192984643!
How do you avoid a release like Concord?
>>491930210Thank you friend
>>49193050139 more sale than me.
>>491929286are you black?>>491929981kek'd I had a similar idea for inflating playtime.
>>491930461all you had to do was set velocity what are you doing?
>>491928572> it's in my trailer only for a short shot. Oh then it is perfectly fine.
>>491928845it's unannounced but it's first person puzzle slop. we're yet another indie dev doing their take on the Portal style but hopefully it's unique/fun/surprising enough to still be worth playing.
>>491929286>>491930487>>491930790>Black>Also wearing blue
>>491930654woah anon is that the epic new flop everyone on /v/ is talking about?? that's totally poggers and based bro let me make this post next!!
>>491930968>bluenigga that's grey
>>491930501GMI!
>>491930461Learn calculus.
>>491930654I will avoid it by following my artistic sense.
>>491857587called it
>>491930861>>491931398>Watch math video teaching a parabolic curve>Every 2 words is a specialized math wordWhy are math teaches like this?Niggas literally start talking like cryptic imbeciles trying to explain something where all the words are fancy nerdy shit only nerds care about.
Ui for following ship as they accomplish their mission.
>>491931691Parabolic path follow a x^n law. Ergo, the position must follow x^2 in your case. So the speed must be 2x and the acceleration (speed change) is 2
>>491925403Can you not just rotate and tint?
>Healed To DeathAdded the model for holy hand grenadesAlso congratulations on releasing into early access MarmoDev
>>491931691don't lump me in with calculus retard. why would you need calculus to add a vector to velocity when you jump and subtract gravity every frame?
>>491932326That looks awful.
>>491932491that's how you do exactly what was asked for
>>491932575Not the anon who asked but that would be linear.
>>491932767you don't have the slightest idea what you're talking about
progress: changed a number
>>491929704would a feedback list be helpful? I could note things as I go through it
>>491930938NTA but good fucking luck, and I mean that in a genuine, non-sarcastic tone. Making a Portal-like is hard. All of the Portal-likes I've seen pop up over the years fall into one of two categories:>they think they can drop the story/worldbuilding/character elements entirely and end up with a super boring puzzle game based around a single gimmick where you just click buttons in first person over and overor>they try way too hard to imitate what Portal did well and end up creating what's basically a Portal fan-game with a few mediocre puzzles that mostly serve as filler content to bring you from one quirky character soundbite to the next.The latter is probably worse than the former, since the former can at least be enjoyed by puzzle autists even if it's boring to anyone else. Again, good luck.
>>491930251>>491930443It's about 4 hours of story mode, but It's quite a hard game though, and I think I'm a decently skilled gamer, so it could take others longer. I can definitely see people getting stuck on some of these bosses. I'm currently trying out some of the procgen/roguelike content.
>>491930654make the characters hot anime girls instead, and f2p with cosmetics is probably necessary when your competition (ow2) is free
>>491932940You're either a yesdev making a sarcastic post or an enginedev sincerely posting your progress for the entire day.
>>491933135>I'm currently trying out some of the procgen/roguelike content.average playtime theory prevails once again
>>491932895I used my mind and came into the conclusion that you are right, it would not be linear.
>>491924327I spent the day drawing and watching marmoreal. Good day.
>>491933676honestly i have no idea what op wanted at all
>>491929286hue hue hue
>>491924327Since DD is coming up, been working on Planets for Sale since DD56. Skipped 57 to do implement 3D, music & sfx, and some gameplay changes. I was hoping to have a proper rogue-lite setup for the buildings and random events ready for DD58 but there are only so many hours in a day.
>>491931720Wish i knew how to do something this complex>lines between two planets that are actively updated and changed during gameplay>object following said line smoothlyIs this game just one solar system or will it be many?
>>491933056I'd say we're trying to thread the latter option. It's not a puzzle autist game because I don't really like puzzle autist games (I never beat Stephen's Sausage Roll..). But I also hate neo-Portal writing attempts with test subjects and AI etc etc. I don't know if we can ever not feel a little similar, in that we are trying for a fun story with surprising things, but I like to think it's different enough to feel like it justifies its existence. There's also NO narrator/witty guide. Thanks for the wishes anon!
>>491934402>Is this game just one solar system or will it be many?Only one, the scope is from early space exploration to full system colonization but no interstellar travel.
>>491932961Gladly! Thank you friend!
>>491924327I"M COOOODING and rewriting shitcodeI feelokNOW'S GONNA BE THE FUN PART Where I FUCK with... finding very nice ways to avoid having to make a GUIX or whatever to make autistically massive dialogue trees to just FFFFFFUCK my shit up
>>491932210Sure but these are all old placeholders that I need to redo. I don't like tinting things because they look like ass imo.
>>491931691I just see a relevant tutorial and copy the code. It eventually makes sense on what does what. I may not know the terminology but I just put two and two together until it makes sense>changing this variable makes it move like this>this one increases the strengthI doubt a lot of this knowledge is even needed for gamedev when you just need to grab the formula online, slap it in, and adjust it as needed. Oh and some are already set up in the engine of choice so it's just adjusting the values rather than even having to do a larger set of work like the former might require.
Any Godotbros know why setting the Timescale to -1 doesn't reverse the animation anymore? It worked in 4.1 but in 4.3 it doesn't work anymore.
>>491936008I got a better jump than 99% of games, by simply using a secondary gravity value that removes the gravity strenght applied to the jump aceleration.Professional niggas need advanced PHD stuff.I only need a secondary gravity variable.:/
I give up.
>>491935273>Randomized expeditionsSometimes, enemies get out of the arena and I can't chase them, because the gates are blocking the exits. Only solution is to restart or hope, that the enemies come back.>DamageSometimes my characters get deleted instantly, because multiple projectiles hit at the same time.(6 hp Frank, instant death, lol)Had no other problems with the game.Oh yeah, I turned the music off, because it got tiring after a while.
>>491935273Ah, wait. There's one more thing.Is there a way of viewing enemy buffs on expeditions?I kinda know what some of them do, but it would be cool if I could read them up.
>marmo game already has 12 reviews
>>491936772literally a toggle in unreal
>>491917190I saw this in my discovery queue and played the demo. I uninstalled it very quickly. Here's why. The game is obviously ugly, but it's okay if it's fun. You begin in an extremely uninteresting area and have to talk to people you don't care about and do a boring fetch quest. Then you have an extremely uninteresting combat tutorial. I was already bored within 15 minutes. Maybe the real combat is better? I don't know, but the demo combat was incredibly dull. The description says it's a tactical RPG, but most of the demo I played was reading text I didn't care about instead of playing a game.Then the setting. I don't relate to spics in the desert. There's nothing interesting about them. Plenty of characters to talk to, and no one to care about. Nothing compelling. So what's left? An ugly game, with a brown color palette, about beaners, with the same boring combat as Transistor basically. Absolutely nothing about it made me want to play it, even for free.

After updating my character art, again I think I have no choice but to update stuff like the enemies. The character art increased in size making the enemies look not so big anymore in some cases. I didn't realize the ramifications of updwting my characters

>>491940106Send him a kebab instead.
>>491940827it was deprecated because Unity didn't want to pay Enlighten any more, so they tried to make their own GI solution but they failed, so then they had to extend with Enlighten to avoid a big outrage. but of course the whole time the Unity employees were avoiding doing anything with (the existing) realtime GI. just a huge waste of potential and time.
>>491940464Not Marmo just a fellow Bocchi-bro. Game isn't even done so I could do this but I hate having to redo stuff I already poured a lot of time and effort into. Feels like I'm throwing away many of those hours of effort besides getting the general animation idea and design idea as well

>>491941319Global Illumination
If I "can't find the fun" by Friday I'm canning this project and starting another one.
I found the fun within 2 days of starting, not sure how so many of you guys mess that up honestly
>>491941443make a 2d pixel platformer, it's all the rage I hear
>>491941319Unity 2019.2, built-in render pipeline, Deferred Renderer although Forward looks the same, just runs a bit worse for this particular scene. the reflections are a second camera in Forward mode.the water is Crest (free version, I think you can still find it on github).the GI is the old "realtime GI" solution Unity had starting in something like 5. so completely stock. it "precomputes" lighting into a bunch of textures similar to traditional lightmaps and those maps are then updated when you move the sun or change its color or change the skybox, anything that would affect the indirect lighting in the scene. and it costs very little performance.also over it I've got Amplify Occlusion running, another asset you may have trouble finding now. it was made free at some point and later removed from the asset store, similar to Crest. still the best AO solution for Unity except maybe some raytraced shit in HDRP that I wouldn't know about.
>>491941432So if I used 2019.4 LTS I could use this then, right? Not like the newer versions really bring much to the table. Feels more like an engine that constantly updates because employee's are making excuses for why they should keep their jobs. Sort of like how Google and Microsoft get worse, "updates" more like excuses to keep their jobs rather than just maintaining one version for long periods of time while making it bug free rather than adding half baked and broken features
>>4919422192019.4 can do anything 2019.2 can do, I'm sure everything would work the same.

>>491917190Doesn't fit any market aesthetically or thematically.

>>491944182Look at the shading and even specific details like the eyebrows.At the very least, it's "anime inspired" but it's part of a specific category of "Western aping anime" art that existed for a while.Now this is real media literacy.

>>491943614criscore
>>491917190Why are you using an old screenshot like that?I blame the publishers. It took hours before they received their first 10 reviews, causing a slow start. And sure, it's not the most typical game that would do really well on Steam, but they have a great positive/negative review ratio. The game is still selling quite well, but I think they would have loved to see that $100K after two days and not two weeks.
>>491921754True. I'm not copying rocket league movement, but I just mean that the cars will be very mobile and won't feel slow and clunky like a lot of car games.

>>491946339Add car hats like in rocket league
>>491943614The player, the enemies, the NPCs, even the UI elements are all squares. They are all the same shape and size, the only distinguishing features are color and texture. Your monotonous design makes your game not only uninteresting and unappealing, but unreadable as well.There are infinitely many polygons you can use, you don't have to just use squares.

>>491940827looks dope
>>491943614Yknow I think if you went full shit-ass ASCII graphics like Dwarf Fortress or Caves of Qud, then people would be sucking your dick and would want to play your crunchy retro orblike... Unfortunately you've ended up in the uncanny valley of bad graphics where they're not good enough to be good but not bad enough to be ironically good
>>491946120>Why are you using an old screenshot like that?There's a crab/schizo/whatever you want to call him who's been posting here for years who trolls through the new section on Steam every day screenshotting games with low review counts just hours after they release. He's done this so often for such a long time that he's actually unknowingly posted a couple of games that eventually went on to be successful. You may occasionally see people posting his Backpack Battles screenshot from time to time to mock him as that game went on to get thousands of reviews (his screenshot showed it with something like 14). There's your /agdg/ lore for the day.
>>491947545worryingly Shazy-esque
>>491943614This looks great anon, keep it up!
>>491947867Wrong. That image was edited to a lower number to make a point. AGDG was being dumb and conflating review counts with quality. People would give ass pats for games with high review counts and would shit all over the game if it had a low review count. Actual game quality withstanding. All anon did was open this general to the truth.
>>491947545a monkey ball-like about avoiding enemies seems very boring
>>491943986There certainly are, because they don't use super low-res textures and disable bilinear blending
>>491943614Love it, looks awesome desu
>>491947867kek imagine the level of resentment required to fuel such efforts against random developers
>>491947867>>491948392say that to my face fucker not online and see what happens

>>491947545there better be game over rape scenes in this
>>491948304sure then go spend years developing characters, items, abilities and objectives to make it more fun. See how well that goes for you...
>>491916228Should I be counting stuff that doesn't feel like gamedev towards my gamedev hours?Working on designing another menu but was unsure how I should design it. So I stopped pplaying in the engine and started writing down my thoughts on how it should be designed/look while fitting the theme. Eventually I got a great idea and drew it on my phone to explain what I wrote. It's the likely menu design I will go with. Would you count that as gamedev?
>>491948751i'm not making the game, but if i were i would remove the enemies and improve the levels
>>491948843Gamedev is 90% thinking and 90% implementation.
>>491948843Yes. If you're making a menu heavy game, menu design is some of the most important work you could be doing.
>>491948979what's the other 10% and 10%
>>491917190took a look, reminds me of that boring game demo i played of Storm Edge. game is a boring dodge to attack scheme. kinda like that 3d game where you dodge as well. but with better options in upgrades. game was still boring even if quite beautiful

>>491949479I can tell you beforehand. Your average playtime is too low.
My game is probably going to end up costing me like $30 or $40 grand. And I don't expect it to sell, like, at all. Is this really how most indie games end up?
>>491949479Your gameplay isn't polished or innovative enough to offset that programmer art, sorry.
Marmoreal may be only two hours long, but it's the most kino two hours you'll ever see. Good animation and cinematography with above average character designs. Remember folks, quality > quantity. Marmo spent 10 years making 2 hours of kino, not 200 hours of trash.
>>491927441drew the brother and sister in paint
>>491949949Make something else then, retard. Honestly why do you people press on with projects that you don't have any confidence in? And what the fuck are you spending $40k on?
>>491949949how the hell did you manage to spend that much
>>491950243For a game to be successful, it needs to be something that players would proudly recommend to their friends. I would be embarrassed to say I played Marmoreal to any of my friends.
>>491947867thats not the same guy, see >>491948291. iirc i may have done the same thing to prove said point as well

>>491950630artists ain't cheap.>>491950441it's not like it's gonna kill me, financially. especially since the money will be spent over the course of about 2 or 3 years. just wanted to know how my budget/profit ratio was comparing to other games.
>>491924327Spent some time working on grenade types and optimizing particles. Think the bloom is going to have be reduced for incendiary ones as seen in the webm (though compression makes it look way worse)Also big congrats to Marmodev for the Steam release!
>>491950956yeah bro this thread is totally full of people blowing 30k on each game they make lmao
>>491948751He's not wrong though, it halts the momentum-based gameplay without offering the rush of when you get good and are able to maneuver with a lot of speedthere would probably need to be some sort of power-ups that give the player more agency
There will never be a good AGDG game. If you post on these threads, you should know this and accept it. All devs who post here are cursed

>>491951504talent is genuinely a meme. outside of having favorable genetics for certain things like playing basketball or having long fingers for piano, nobody is born with natural skill in anything creative
>>491950412Not bad.What do you have in mind for the gameplay?
>>491951631then why are there already 15 reviews? oh.so I guess I should generally ignore reviews when their number is under triple digits huh
>>491947867Same guy did the same thing to that one witch game that was Kickstarted. I just looked at the Steam page for it now and it has 85 reviews now, it'll likely have over 100 by the end of the week.
>>491951504I do
>>491951642passion is not a meme though. most people don't really have that drive, that compulsion to get better at that impossible task. talent is when you turn that little flame into a big fire somehow

>>491952319Go back to bed, grandpa.
>>491951759It has a very high review to sale ratio because Mamro's friends understand the importance of games getting lots of positive reviews early on, so we're leaving one even if we otherwise might not.
>>491948108who?>>491948304disagree>>491948968why?>>491951124are you also opposed to any sort of obstacles in your game? if you're good you will avoid the enemy or bump it off, if ur not then it will bump you off. also the blast attack exists that can be activated after filling the meter, rewarding the player with an easy and efficient way to knock off multiple enemies.it's also less like monkey ball and more like marble blast, marble it up, and pac n roll. you control the ball not the stage.
>>491947408That would not work because anon's game isn't based on tiles.
>>491952319Did you just call my game awful
>>491951626If you think about it, has there been even a single professional looking game on AGDG in the last three years?Seriously. Every fucking game on these threads looks fake as shit. I can't imagine any of them here in someone's Steam library. These are like fake games made for people to play on TV shows because they can't have a real one due to copyright.
>>491952319>Something Awful
>>491952409>the importance of games getting lots of positive reviews early onpretty sure genuine word of mouth has more of an effect than a number on a screen. if a real person tells you credibly that he likes this game you'd be more likely to buy it than if it happens to have a good user review score. a BAD user review score would be a disaster, no doubt. but whether it's very good or just good and whether there are 50 reviews or 10 I don't think makes a big difference. lots of games have stellar reviews but just aren't my genre, you know? to buy a game I need to be convinced it's for me.
>>491952414No matter how juiced up or polished this gets, I cannot possibly imagine it being fun.
>>491952443It is partially based on tiles.

I don't think most dev's even count their time/salary for themselves.If I counted a salary for myself my game would be a total cost of $200k in salary + somewhere around $2.5k in paid stuff.>>491952743>GAME SPHEREKek'd
>>491951642>talent is genuinely a memeThis is a fucking retarded take for anyone whose actually put in the effort into something they are not good at. Yes the majority of people fail because they don't try, no that doesn't mean talent doesn't exist. Talent can take form on in how far ahead you are of everyone without training, how quickly you learn and what your natural limits are. I'm naturally good at programming. That doesn't mean I was better than someone who is untalented but tried for a 1 year. It does mean that i had surpassed them after 3-4 months of learning and trying. My art skills started off began 1 standard deviation below the average, after years of art classes and trying harder than most people i was smack dead average.I've been both the person who didn't try and was better than almost everyone and the person tried harder than everyone else. Talent exists.
>>491953305I don't think it works that way. Steam's algorithm only holds games back if they have BAD reviews. anything over "mixed" or some bad category like that is treated the same by the algorithm. last I heard number of reviews doesn't matter, it's just a proxy for how many copies you sold. what matters for the algorithm is how many copies you ACTUALLY sell.
>>491954519the lore gets deeper.Sometimes I like to imagine that /agdg/ has a bit of a cinematic universe. Like maybe I can place Blorb or Nolglorb in my game.

>>491955449What does that have to do with making cool games that people want to play?
>>491954607AFAIK, you need some minimum number of reviews (some say it's 10, but Steam hasn't confirmed the exact threshold) before a game is given ANY organic visibility (i.e. home page or discovery queue views), after which it goes to numbers like purchase per store page view (which having some reviews certainly helps to increase later purchase). https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/marketing/visibility

it's really telling how worthless most of the people in this general are because they cling to the mere title of game DEVELOPER. Not a good one mind you, the simple act of RELEASING A PRODUCT is considered to be unattainable. Being shit at art doesn't make you not an artist, being shit at music doesn't make you not a musician. Maybe try to be a GOOD game dev instead of just a game dev.

>>491960579calm down unity dev, having a meltie because your asset creators don't update their goods?
Yeah, I use purchased assets because I want to make a good game not win autist points on 4chan. Problem?
People here should stop using graphics/art as their game's dump stat. Your programmer art isn't charming and your game isn't Minecraft. Hire an artist or buy assets (please not Synty)
>>491960795We live in a Post-postmodern art world. Deal with it. You are a unique special snowflake. Live like one.
>>491960506all an engine gives you is rendering and physics, the actual game is in the scripting and asset creationwriting thousands of lines of code to create a game is obviously a different act to tossing in a premade template to anyone with a few brain cells to rub together
>>491924327I just started a new engine. I wasn't limited by Bevy or anything. I just enjoy the process of writing engines and less on game design. I might be close to my progress with Bevy in my new engine soon.

>>491959994thanks bud>>491960383yeah, right now its using unity relay servers (automatically makes the game creator as the server), but once I get the game closer to alpha release I am going to switch over to dedicated servers

>>491960841Purchased assets invariably look like ass >w-what about this successful game that used a retextured crate asset in the background of a level?? Your player character is from the Unity store
So happy that more indies are forced to make inclusive games, as homophobic games are review-bombed and get no positive coverage.Asshole dev refused to add lgbtq relationships to his game and then went on a twitter (not calling it x) tirade when people rightfully spoke up about it. His overall reviews are mostly positive, but his recent reviews are mixed and continue to decline. Time to pay the toll, lol.

sorry for the compression.attached is the almost complete version of the painting shader I had posted in a previous thread.it's close to done, basically what I'll need to do now is optimize so it can run on the lowest of low end hardware.In the video, you can see two cats, I have one using the standard URP Lit shader to show as a comparison. Also a bonus of an outline effect I'm working on (it's not too noticeable, I have it as a more subtle effect) as well as a hatched shadows shader I am working on.Then next I can start to make models of my own, rather than use the testing models I downloaded.Finally, I'm going to make a game that will be with this aesthetic. I hope I can think of good ideas to add, since I have only been working on shaders the last few months.my question to you, /agdg/ is this:do you like the shadow banding effect? where the shadows form as "growing blobs" as the shadows become darker and darker? (this can be seen on the yellow van bus.thats the part i'm most unsure about.

>>491961250>>491961439I do wonder sometimes if a post like this is just to promote the game through rage bait, just rage bait or some "ally", it's really difficult to tell what's bait and what isn't these days.
- 2 hours on pathsThought for now is that exploring a path is done instantly for a cost and if a node is discovered that shares a path with another discovered node it's explored for free.Lingering questions:- Should it be that a building can't be built on a node if that node isn't connected to another adjacent node? That is, maybe there could be an 'outpost' building that's just a cheap throwaway so the player has a meaningful limitation- Should paths need to be worked by a meeple for a turn? This would be another meaningful use of resources, especially when workers have nothing else to do at buildings- How to deal with overlapping paths? My current thought Is just modify my drunken walk impl. to not allow non-planar graphs, but I guess intersecting paths could be possible? Probably over complication, even if the nodes spatially being close, but unconnected could cause player confusion.We're 3X at the moment. Goal for demo day is to get to 4X, hopefully before the weekend so I can just use labor day to crush content for demo day and get low-hanging fruit out of feedback.

>>491962465thank youI'm going to be working on that next. I've been learning blender on and off for the past few months, so now that this shader's almost done I can focus on making models with a more cohesive style. All of those were just random fbx files I had downloaded over the years, since most of the things I've made on blender are from following tutorials.
>>491962732haha it's true

>>491963351Why aren't you making games for kids?
bros, can I buy synty assets and make a decent game? Can I use shaders like toon shaders and other stuff to customize the feel to some extent? I'm new to game dev and suck at art so I want to at least make an ok game and sell some units before going and commissioning assets.
>>491963541It looks like a professional game albeit.
>>491964403>can I buy synty assets and make a decent game?Yes>I'm new to game dev Ok, No, but you should try anyway.
>>491964403Make a decent game first, then buy synty assets and start fucking around with shadersMaybe during the process you'll develop some taste
>>491963571Usually you use that to preserve highlights, which I don't see any of. I guess it kind of does with the washed our colours, but that isn't specific to watercolour and not required there either. idk I'm not seeing it, unless its kids watercolour pigment on trash paper.
>>491965061Why aren't you making games for kids?

>>491964403Just practice making simple arcade games like asteroids, breakout using primitive shapes or kenney assets. Don't waste money on buying assets, you have no idea how much work it takes to make a game.

>>491955556>>491955676>>491956510Games are made out of code, and inverting a binary tree is extremely simple. You shouldn't "know" how to do it, but you should be able to very easily figure it out, because the things you'll have to figure out in your game are orders of magnitude harder. I'm serious: if you struggle with conceptualizing how you might invert a tree, your optimal path is to stop everything and practice programming. Learning to drive and then driving somewhere is faster than immediately setting off on a walk to there.

>>491966763Why aren't you making games for kids?

There is not one creative hobby in the world that draws as much ire about the mechanical skills involved in it as game dev does. >who cares how to mix colors? people like paintings, not pigments xDD
>>491966696I just put the y-value into the negatives. easy
>>491967119>is tracing cheating?
>>491967119Why would I care about how to reverse a binary tree when I can just call a method somebody else already made?Leave the nerd shit to the enginedevs and focus on making a cool game that people want to play
>>491954875At first I thought your picture was a guy with a weird shaped head like this
>>491967443I don't even know what a binary tree is, much less how to reverse it. I've never needed it in 10+ years of coding professionally.
>>491965061im not going for water color, it's too difficult to get that looking good at my skill level. maybe some dayfor now, i'm just leaving it as a generalized digital painting styled thing. since the blobby shadow areas aren't too dark, it can be used to affect how strong the brush stroke appearance is, then based on how dark the brush strokes are in that spot, it can change the color of themBy changing the brush texture or gradient texture (for color replacement), it can get different stylizations, but thats about it. Also the way the shadow banding blobs look can get changed too but not by much otherwise it looks all fucked up and retardedi have outlines on there that are based on color difference, so that's kind of used for an accent. but its too hard to see in the webm, i'm still figuring out how to get them to look how they actually are supposed to look likebut yeah, for now i won't change it much to be more like a true water color, or true oil painting style. for now it's at the point of good enough, so I'll just spend time making it look a little better to where it's like "ok, this is a cool style" rather than "oh? just digital watercolor? digital oil paint?"
I'm super anxious and I'm not sure what to do about it.
>>491967503Why aren't you making games for kids?
>>491966879i agree inverting sounds wrong, it just means switching the sides basicallye.g. head -> [left,right], you switch left and right etc

>>491969232didn't market the shit out of it
>>491969430generic ones yeah but unique/well designed ones no
>>491942560Friendly reminder that if you use the platonic solids in your game without having read all of Plato and at least 3 late-Platonist works (one of which must be the Enneads), your local governments secret service WILL come and disappear you forever.You have been warned
>>491969450Making your own art, ms paint, blender primitives or otherwise is always better than buying it from someone else.
>>491960386it's probably the gore poster, doxxer, spam, and anti-eric poster as well. learned about a month or two ago that majority of the hostile posts are just 1 insane guy
I consider myself a terrible writer, underage fanfiction tier. How do I stop myself from writing cringe dialogue into my game?
I want to make an h-game, I don't have any desire to make a regular game as I won't have passion for it. Is that ok?
>>491969450lucas still wrote the movie you fucking retard using a real object as a prop isn't even remotely comparable to using a game template to "make" a game
>>491969950>I consider myselfStop writing like this for starters

marmo should put his game as free to play and then sell some cosmetics.or at least some battle pass or some extras.
>>491970216cris please your stupid ideas to yourself
>>491970216sell beach skins.
I would pay for Kaliina skins in Marmoreal
>>491970348nobody pay for games, we're in 2025, not 1995.
>>491969950That's kind of a general question. If you're self aware then that at least helps. I guess one tip I would give would be to not overcomplicate things. Even if your game is kind of complicated in nature and there's a bigger narrative you want to tell, you probably shouldn't try to convey too many things you're not confident in explaining via dialogue. Make your NPCs simple and one-note. Don't overcompensate in text when you want to tell something to your player. Let the player experience the world instead.
>>491961250>respectfully ask...yeah no. even if he ignored them they'd probably blow a gasket look at them trying to push eric into add pronouns. another youtuber bends the knee to wokeism probably for attention since a lot of them seem to act like they're on the news and whatever they say is fact, regardless of whether or not it is. all you have to do is make a game that's so popular that no amount of angering the woke crowd can ruin you at all. that crowd will certainly get mad at me but man it will feel so good knowing they're mad and there isn't a thing they can do to force me to add woke stuff into MY GAME.
>>491969950make a game without dialogue
>>491970031>templatealso having premade assets isn't a templatealso keep seething and screeching, you got intellectually dominated.>>491969813better for what? it's not better for the quality of the game. what's your 5 favorite games? were they made by one person? well there you go.
>>491969950Every writer is cringe af if you think hard enough about it. Stop thinking about it.
Cris has cousin energy.I could imagine us eating pasta across a table at our Nonna's house in between breaks of playing Sonic Adventure.

>>491946806lol ill definitely add in goofy customization options. but the main idea is that cars will be fully customizable/buildable, so youll be able to do a lot more than simple cosmetics
>>491970770Virtua Fighter*
>>491970991Yes. Godot is in severe need of contributors because the scope has grown so massive. Apply on the website. He said it around the release of 4.3.
>>491970991Join the developer rocketchat: https://chat.godotengine.org/Go to https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues and start picking out issues without pull requests that you think you can handle and make pull requests for them.Once you do enough of that, they could start assigning you issue that include payment.
How the fuck would something like this be simplified?(This is to have repeating key presses.)
>>491923124Just write some text into a file. When the game boots up read that text and set the variables accordingly. It's easy.
>>491971624By downloading an engine
>>491970991Depends. Do you take HRT?
>>491971624By using Godot, picrel
Today, i'm going to continue going through the game tutorial for godot to keep learning stuff
>>491971982make game instead
>>491971885Exists in the version of GameMaker I'm using, but this is supposed to be a timed-turn based game, not real time.>>491971815Nah.
>>491969950Get a normalfag editorPlease, all of you should do this
>>491972369Now mention the rates
>>491970006Why are you asking for permissionDo you not understand indie dev
>>491972105I'm in my third day of actually messing around with game engines long enough to have it start to make sense.Right now i've been going through an extensive tutorial for godot and then attempting to apply the stuff i followed on with for my own shitty project.Its been going well since i think i'm actually learning things.It's fun
>>491970006I prefer non-consensual gamedev

>>491972592The council must approve of my game for success to be bestowed though, my lord. There is no use to making a game without the approval of the council, all those who choose such a venture have spiraled into failure.
>>491927647>put your heart into everything you do even if it nets you nothing in return, at least you grew as a person>at least you grew as a personActually, there are some things in this world that won't make you grow. In fact, they will degrade you.
;_; my anime website went down, it's over what do i do now for entertainment? i'm a shut in. now my main form of entertainment after devving is standing up and walking around for a few minutes while playing some music and letting my imagination go wild (and keeping the door closed lest someone see what i'm doing). dev bros ;_; hold me

>>491972695that is the best way to improve, these ones are goodhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwCiGixlqiUhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FmIo8iBV1W8I'm trying to find one that goes in-depth on OOP and architecture, even though I understand it well in other languages the node system in godot add a lot of confusion nobody has addressed yet that I know of.
>>491973102fucking zoomers don't know to torrent it's so pathetic
>>491973102Pirate some books to read? Books are comfy, fun, and could be a great source of new types of inspiration for your game(s)
>>491972832>In fact, they will degrade you.Basically everything I don't like
>>491973102use nyaa to torrent zoomie
>>491930501I'm proud of you Marmodev!
>>491970637I never said it had to be made by one person. I'm sure most of the games I enjoy had all of their art made specifically for them. Or at the very least reused assets from old games made by the same team.
>tfw Godot 4.3 fixed my problem
>>491973102>(and keeping the door closed lest someone see what i'm doing)lmao this nigga living with he parents
Why do you gay faggots respond to blogposting avatarfaggots? Especially tranimeniggers. ESPECIALLY tranimeniggers posting FOTM seasonal garbage tranime. This is why I do not post my progress here, I do not want to be associated with your stink.
>>491974104sorrey...
>>491974162Look what you did
>>491973313NTA, but all of the places I torrented with as a kid have disappeared and I got lazy. Also, I've heard that anything worth while is private now, so... yeah I'm kind SoL. At least I dont have Comcast.
Someone needs to take that "lifelong gamer" image and edit it to match marmoreal. And then the last panel could be showing the 10 reviews he got as his reward.
>>491974298are you for real? torrenting is better then ever, storage has gotten so cheap that tons of people are seeding terabytes of shows for a few bucks a month using seedboxes. Catch up fool you are out of touch
>avatartrannies won't even buy Marmo's gamepossibly the most disgusting thing I've witnessed in 20 years on 4chan
>>491974889i did tho
>>491969447ouch... I guess it needs more work than I thought
>>491974889I don't want anime games like Marmoreal dirtying my Steam library, sorry. I might grab it on itch if it goes on sale or if Marmo drops keys for that.
>>491973515but I asked>better for what?will what you make yourself look better than buying premade assets and adapting them? if so then congratulations, you're a competent artist. if it won't look better, then why do it?
>>491970637
>>491975010I disagree with him
Currently coming up with ideas for ads, how's this? I feel like the main idea for it isn't coming through very well
>>491974889All the girls in it are too old and they don't even have stupid hats
>>491975120was meant for>>491974993sorry
>>491958150it looks unnatural to me since the orbit radius of a planet would give all the planets different lengths. 1 cycle around the sun for mars is different than for earth.
>>491975062>look better>look like every other game using the same cookie cutter assets
>>491975512Like the latest Capcom and Square Enix games using the same cookie cutter Megascans assets that every Unreal dev uses?
>>491975121Feels like a bad idea to rely on people being familiar with a specific meme, to "get" your ad desu. Also, no idea what the legalities are on using a persons photo for your ad, assuming that isnt you in the photo lol
>using assets from the marketplace is good enough for Netflix smash hit tv series Stranger Things but not good enough for anon on 4chan's indie game
>>491976126>yes.jpg
>>491975824>if thing is bad why is generic triple-A slop doing it???
>>491976126Maybe we should just stop paying attention to the advice of people who have never released a finished product
>>491976085>First of all, using images of people in your advertisement without permission is generally fine.It's Quora, and there's some legal extras they bring up, but I think it's fine.>>491976126>yes.png
>>491976126>if thing is bad why is generic netflix capeshit doing it???
>AAA BAD!>Cinema BAD!>crudely drawn anime inspired pixelshit rogueslop GOOD!
Adding interactable physics objects to my loli game is fun!
>>491976746yes and I'm tired of pretending otherwise.
>>491976085It's one of those onlyfans whores who advertises on here. If /v/3 can put Shrek in their ad I think I'll be okay. But you're right about using a meme to market the game.
>>491976746stranger things isn't "cinema", faglord
>>491976810loli physics is fun!
>>491977020how mentally ill do you have to be to make this
>>491977020I still can't believe the dev of this game posts here...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Igfp7_1Df4
>>491977297very, watching that webm makes me want to support mass surveillance and censorship.
crabs want to make you think you need to be a competent programmer, artist and composer to release a good game. these are all distinct careers, often with sub-specializations but (You) as a solo dev must do all the work yourself or your game is soulless.at least the forty-to-sixty guy is sabotaging anons by making them give up and not waste their time. anti-asset crabs are sabotaging anons by having them waste their time.
Do people typically pay people that get others to help them on their teams? I am mostly a programmer, though.
>>491977297if you think thats bad you aint seen nothing yet, kid
it's pissening
Should I try to learn art myself or how expensive is it to pay someone to do the art for a game on fiverr?
>>491978181It really depends on the complexity of the art, the experience of the artist and of the volume of art assets that you need.here, take a good lookhttps://www.fiverr.com/categories/graphics-design/game-art
>>491978382Is pixel art easy or hard?
>>491977610>>491978181>>491978616leave
>>491978660Nah I've released games before they just had programmer art and were game jam games I can make games
>>491978757you've released games before and are asking if pixel art is easy or hard, ok kid whatever you say.
Only 10 more reviews required...

I gave my character visible panties under her skirt not because I'm a massive pervert but because having a black void looks bad and unrealistic.
>>491979990as a massive pervert i will enjoy it
>>491979990>not because I'm a massive pervertA shame. The world needs more perverted artisans.
>>491916228>after 100 years marmoreal has released edition>https://store.steampowered.com/app/1484940/Marmoreal/i should wishlist it
I'm so glad that I accidentally worked on developing multiple different skills for development. I wanted to be an artist so I got a drawing tablet, and stuff. I don't really think as a solo dev I can get good at art, programming, and other things all at once though. Art kind of depends on skill you were born with in terms of how much potential you have. It's hard to be an indie game developer, I guess.
>>491980243>Art kind of depends on skill you were born withthis is true, but you can fake it the main thing separating a good artist from a shit one is having a good eye for beauty. everything else is just technical skill. if you spend enough time observing good art you can form a sort of autistic logic-based approach to determining whether people will like something. not as good as natural talent but good enough to make a game.
>>491980142ugh
Finally finished with the dialogue system. Now I just need to make a simple quest and a level for it and I'll be ready for my first Demo Day.Where do you usually do level blockout/design, anons? In Blender or directly in UE/Unity/Godot? Unreal's Cube Grid seems pretty fun, but this workflow also looks interesting - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9HNRzgRT5E
>>491974298>>491973102retarded bocchi posterits unbelievable that you dont know the best anime torrenting site that has been around foreveri could help you but i wont
>>491979990based
>>491981209if the answer is aniwave, they went down and apparently, if what i read is true, several sites over the last few days. now i've got one less thing to do after i finished a good dev session and want to unwind a bit. it was the only site i wasn't paranoid about doing funky stuff to my pc. there is no chance i'd go there, not with my game on this pc. imagine have a virus get into my game's files and it simply lies there dormant
>>491981121I do blockout in engine, should be pretty easy in unreal
