I love how this general is essentially just a bunch of bitter sorry old fags who try to talk down to me despite the fact that I've accomplished in a year everything that they couldn't accomplish in 10 years
How do I fix this?

>>493292638Good post.
cris? more like... cris-chan!
as a consumer i find marketing to be the most important aspect to decide if i play a game.but marketing isnt about notifying me that your game got released, it's about communicating extremely well what your game is about.seriously for 99.9% of games on steam i just cant fucking tell what their game is about. and when i can tell, it seems like it just has one boring gimmick with 30 minutes of playtime.maybe there are cool games out there i'd play. but "tales of mysteridia" "stories of forsaken elysium" or whatever those games are called isn't telling me at all what the game is about. "its an rpg", well ok, but that still doesnt tell me what the gameplay is like.compare that to e.g. Minecraft (you craft, mine, build, ok)or dont starve (survival, dont starve ok?)rimworld (colony survival sim, tower defense)project zomboid (its zombie survival sandbox)so marketing rule #1: have at least 3 core features and shove those into my faceand marketing rule #2: shove into my face how much playtime your game has, because i dont want to play a gimmick for 30 minutesofc its personal preference if i will like your core features/genre, but how can i even begin to like it if i dont even KNOW that it contains content that is my preference??
>>493292814Nevermind asshole, your post sucks.
>>493292814as a gamedev i find you need to leave our general and never come back.
>>493292814how the hell am i supposed to tell you how much playtime the game has?
>>493292814Dude, are you for real? You sound like the poster child for entitled gamers everywhere. "Waaahh, I can’t tell what this indie game is about! Gimme my core features NOW!" It’s a game, not a fast-food menu. Maybe try reading a description or watching a trailer before you whine about it? And seriously, you're acting like the Steam store has zero quality indie titles. You just have to put in a little effort instead of demanding cookie-cutter marketing. You're the reason why games are getting dumbed down. Instead of exploring unique experiences, you want everything to be fed to you like a baby. Maybe try a little adventure, huh?Asking for a bullet-point list of features sounds like the laziest way to enjoy gaming. If the name of a game is “Tales of Mysteridia” and the description isn't grabbing you, maybe the game is not for you. But you don’t need a manager at the game store to serve you a checklist to look cool.And honestly, who cares about game length beyond a certain point? You think you have a one-size-fits-all metric for playtime? Just look at games that hook you in—sometimes they’re short and sweet, sometimes they’re long epic quests. You should be ashamed for reducing your options to just “30 minutes” of gimmicky fun when there might be hidden gems waiting for you.Time to stop whining and start exploring, buddy! Or you could just stick to your beloved Minecraft clones forever. Your call!
>>493292656yes, I will collect my game of the year award and sing I dreamed a dream of times gone by to the attendees. thus begins my recording artist arc

IF you can't get a girlfriend, what makes you think you can make a good game?Getting a girlfriend is part of the basic package of life. It's like getting a drivers' license or finishing high school. You should be able to do it easily.Making a good game as a solo developer requires being proficient in multiple highly technical disciplines. You also need a good sense for human psychology and what's fun.And you think you can make a good game but couldn't make even one girl want to do what they're biologically hardwired to do?
Reminder to wishlist Bokube on steam https://store.steampowered.com/app/1149490/Bokube/
>>493292656Do you really believe in scripted TV slop? Grow up a little, will you?
>>493293172basedful
>>493293165considering the general got taken over by unironic pedophiles I would say a little bullying is very necessary
Just a reminder No devs crabs will demoralize your progress posts.>"30% of your project is bought assets REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE FUCKING LOSER STOPPPPP AND WASTE YOUR TIME DOING ALL YOURSELF OR..OR ELSE!"Make game. Be yes dev.
>>493293172There has to be so many botted reviews
>>493293209im married and still cant make good game without burning out midway
Id these sneakers
>>493292238He's morphing I to a silver daddy
>>493292814what a crybaby. when I was your age, we looked at the cover and the back of the game and hired it based on feels, not reals.
>>493293237yeah i'll go.. and... oops forgot what i was supposed to do
>>493293328i agree but post game, also 30% is rookie numbers
>>493293250>le epic naruto anime is le cool and hecking and wholesome>le epic and wholesome story of a hidden jewel in poverty being a world star is le cringe and sadYou would claim it would be a masterpiece if it was a pink hair autistic little anime girl with social issues.
game devs really think gamers will spend all day going through literally 20k+ games a year spending a lot of time trying to figure out what the game is aboutand then they wonder why gamers just buy whats popular or their fav streamer plays
>>493293109the internet is gonna go real sour once openai finds out how to make chatgpt not write like a fucking retarded redditor
>>493293237why would I wishlist a game that will never come out?
>>493293559You have nothing better to do with your time, so yes?
be honest: how many of you are actual game devs? today it feels like the thread is filled with everything but devs
>>493293358What's that in his pocket?
>>493293559I'm making a hidden gem
lol is cris really still coping about how one day he will be like Sussane Boyle?does he not know he's already a lolcow nobody outside of this site cares about?
>>493293559Solution: make a game so good that it becomes popular
>>493293762>he's not just waiting for DD to open
anybody who wants to verify they are real people in this thread when they post something, just screencap your post and post it as an image, chatbots cant do that
>>493293237This game could have been big but the dev choose to make it 18+
>>493293762I'm a dev, but I'm going to bed now. later dudes.

Progress:I hoped to have at least two finished infantrymen enemies in this build but I ran out of time so I just slapped this ugly "tutorial" model to the basic rifle enemy, better than the billboarding silhouettes but not by much.At least they make a funny noise when you run them over.
>>493293990making it 18+ doesn't change anything? What are you smoking?
This is my master's thesis. Thoughts?Also post your main character and I will draw a very crude image of them. So come get your fan art.
>>493293165consider understanding what terms mean before using them
agdg is potentially the worst game dev community in existence. i would bet that fewer than 1 in 50 people here have actually made a complete game. of those, only a few made anything remotely worthwhile. the amount of talentless retards screaming at each other is astounding. there is so little talent here, that someone like bokube becomes a topic of actual conversation
>>493293237it is fucking embarrassing that this game will probably sell less than nolgorb's ordeal or pogo3d and it has been in development for more than 10x the amount of time
I'm a bad 2d artist. a decent pixeller. You need 2d prowess to texture well. It's over. >3d is le easier than 2dIT REQUIRES BOTH 3D AND 2D
>>493294719>agdg is potentially the worst game dev community in existence.No that title belongs to the rpgmaker dev threads on /vrpg/
>>493294876There's a whole RPGMaker dev general here?????
Should I buy dingodev's game after he gender swapped the big booby main character for a dude?
>>493294805Its already got enough ks backers and wishlists to not worry about that honestly.
>>493293172>no slopestry again
>>493293165This isn't a free speech website. It's a freespeech website but the line is drawn at talking about how much you want to fuck children you demented fuck, moot banned you guys.

>>493295339Why hasn't he released the game yet
can everyone here drink a lot so tomorrow the people playing my demo have the same brain capacity of the average steam user
>>493295053Any Keys?I'm not paying 5 dollars for this shit that I could just decompile the godot codeBut I'll leave a review
>>493294323The Tiananmen Square Massacre simulator is too accurate.
>>493295339iv had 3 gf's in the last 5 years make prototypes for them but they all get lazy and never finish them I guess bokube is a cursed IP even in physical goods they never get done and get scrapped and remade with new versions dispute me never telling the girls to do that....
>removed "unique posters" count>nobody replies to screencap verification postsyep all chatbots
>>493295339>real
>>493295029its a rpg maker dev general in name only.There is maybe 1 or 2 progress posts in the whole thread and the rest of the thread is this.
>>493295660> but they all get lazy and never finish themi thought the saying was "opposites attract"
>>493295660>iv had 3 gf's in the last 5 years make prototypes for themthis cracks me up.
>>493295612Gifted key reviews are worthless.
>>493295314there's more than one?
>>493295053>nolgorb's ordeal>gob (from go(r)b)>blorb (double b)>the great ordeal (ordeal is in both games)anybody else started to notice any specific patterns?

>>493294565average college tard
very odd
>>493295660learn to sew. it's really not hard. it's like 3d modelling, laying out UVs and then joining the verts by hand. I did sewing class when I was 11 or something.
>>493293438Didn't read your post but I'm glad I made you seethe.
Sardines and a final big room for the demo level, hopefully it serves as a good testbed for optimization and balancing.
>>493296038MOTHER FUCKER ITS BEEN 10 YEARS AND I NEVER LEARNED HOW TO PROGRAM DO YOU THINK I WANT TO LEARN HOW TO SOW ONE OF THE THINGS YOU NIGGERS NEVER GET IS THAT TO MAKE A GOOD GAME YOU NEED TO MIN MAX GAME DEV AND GAME DESIGN NOTHING ELSE MATTERS.

>>493296038how do you make squares filled with soft material that retain their shape thouoverbeit
>>493292238When do you guys think using ai generated music in games will be socially acceptable? Story, Art, Gameplay, etc I'd rather do myself, but music is something a guy like me cannot afford, let alone an entire soundtrack. Most royalty free music sounds a bit generic for my tastes, with AI i can get as autistic as I want for the soundtrack for any specific scenerios, locations, battles, with neat tunes falling into my lap at lighting speeds.>but...but....learn how to fruitloop!too time consuming and frustrating for me, I'd like to release an actually finished product. Adding that to the mix on top of everything else would certainly put me in dev hell, as lazy as that may sound, and take away time and energy from the things I'd really prefer to focus on like the story and artstyle
>>493295861In steam's priority calculation yes, but when people see the good reviews they'll think "wow this is good"plus I only review aggy games on my youtube if you give me keys.
>>493296305>Most royalty free music sounds a bit generic >Wants to use AIMan, you're fucking retarded. Just use whatever. You're going to make slop that's going to flop anyway.
>>493295660now I wanna Dirk plushie
>>493295660how about, I dunno, paying someone to make one using the kickstarted money that you stole?
>>493296293You never seen pillow cube?
>>493295874Like 3 last I knew
>>493293769Nuts, sardines, pita chips and coffee
>>493296547>paying people Disgusting how do you think I gamedev full-time now thats like asking to go back to being a wageslave cook and delay the development even longer. amatuer devs forget that I wageslaved for 8 years until this year and its the only reason why bokube is getting done this year.
blah blah blah shut the fuck up you got paid to make a game back in 2018 and here we are in 2024 and you still haven't delivered nigga shut UP you are a fucking loser lol
>>493296730>BokuDev is NEETing right now
it's so over, just 15 minutes into substance painter and i can't find a good looking way to add drop shadows from a layer nor a bevel on it
wtf i love linux now!theyre shitting on my scribble artstyle so badit seems to really be hit or miss, nothing inbetween
>>493296730What the fuck, 2024 is kino now
>anon has a game that looks awesome with a nice unique style>never posts updates again>only in one game jamYou still alive anon? any updates'
Great, now I need to figure out what exactly the fuck they did to skeletons in 4.3 to get my IK working again because the game is not throwing any error messages, it's just not working.
>>493297154oh damn i forgot about this gameit was like a 3d action thing right? chick with huge breasts? was pretty cool i liked it
>>493297154he's making a porn game now
>>493296305Stop giving a shit and you'll see how quickly this notion of social acceptability dissipates from your life.
>>493297154He did update, but it was in the thread. He dropped it.
>>493294805listen bro.pogo3d is a good game and it was a success.i made a lot of money off of it. i made a lot of connections off of it. i learned a lot of valuable skillsdid i buy a house and retire?no.but that's fine. it took me 18 months part time work only. 5 dollars an hour is pretty good for a hobby.
>>493297421nice try marmo
Can you use assets from other games in your demo for demo day or will agdg jam moderators for example alert nintendo im using pikachu and ban me from demo day.
>>493297560
>>493296467AI is the only way I could get my pure encapsulated autism into the soundtrack. There's no way I could get something insane like a vocal Rock + jazzpop fusion song sung in Spanish with a saxophone solo in the middle by a regular artist without shitting out my entire savings and more.
>>493296967i used the wrong pic im retarded
>boku neets to finish his failed game>gets 50 reviews(mixed)(40 are kickstarter people so no fresh income)>prepares to neck>new review>"mojito sends his regards"
>>493297802red goat post
how do RTS games explain the fact that every campaign mission has you start with 2 dudes and a pile of matches, then end up with a military force the size of a small country, and then in the next mission you're back to nothing again? it probably seems like a small thing but i think it's actually pretty important for it to be believable. best i have right now is:>the force that actually starts the missions are just the scouting force, and any unit/tech you get is just the main force slowly arriving on locationand>many/all of your troops were mercenaries. they looted everything, demanded pay and scattered after the mission, and that is why you lost all the resources you harvested
>>493297802He could refuse to give out the kickstarter keys and force people to buy the game again.
>>493297783Good pitch.
>>493297401well, if he is around I'd pay 15€ to buy the ownership of the assets off him
>>493293769acorns
>>493297917"it's a game"
>>493297421What connections did you make
>>493297770Sounds very cris-like
>>493298178Blackrock reached out to me offering to fund my next game.
>>493293172>open link>shit scraped together from childrens drawings>go back to /agdg/>read the original post>it's an egotistical cunt pretending he's on the same level as people who spent a century on their gamespeaking of which, it shouldn't have taken you an ENTIRE year to make this dogshit.
>>493293438he's right you know
>>493297917you're playing the commander who gets shuffled around to new fronts with each missionthe troop presence you've built up has to stay behind to hold the area
>>493297783bro.. just move on and try to make a better game. what is this sunk cost fallacy of releasing a giga flop, and instead of accepting that it was trash you drop the idea of being a game dev completely and turn into a shameless pajeet marketing scammer? good games dont need jeet marketing
>>493298284>t. crab with no game
>>493298178some ecelebs who will stream whatever game i make in the futuresome other ecelebs who will be peer pressured into playing those games by aforementioned ecelebs. I even caught a whale (+$150 for 25 steam keys he gave away)also i have farmed a little clout in the discord for when it is time to approach an artist (maybe next next game)
>>493298723teach me your ways, unironically
>>493298419i didnt order mr linux to write this.
>>493298664correct, that is because I don't know how to, but I am in the process of learning.die mad about it
Do you let chatgpt game content guy for you? If so, any recommendations?Considering past a wall of game design text on how bmups work and have it generate some enemy behaviours
>>493298419>he doesn't know
There's not an rpg maker than can easily make action rgps.
does anyone know about a blender tutorial/free class/playlist that isnt boring, painfully slow paced, or blisteringly fast paced?
>>493299039ChatGPT is a tool that will output the thing you want it to output. It will generate the most average thing it can find a pattern off, and make you question how badly our industry is avalanch'd by cliches
Another hater turns out to not have a game of his own.Shocking.
>>493299039only very vague things, i never directly take things from itits like asking a monkey to type stuff and picking one out of 100 words
>>493298269Proof?
>>493299354What's the problem with mediocre? It sells no? Why reinvent the wheel
>>493292343>10 yearswell that makes sense for dev who were here during the golden age and still failed to capitalize on the make it money. it's like knowing about BTC back in 2010 and did a lot of research but all you did was sit on the sidelines for years while watching others make it
>>493297917DESU RTS games shouldn't start with a few units and should never have missions that are like "Take these 10 horsemen across the map in a semi stealthy fashion, don't let the enemy army see you!" That shit is gay and needs to stop. And honestly even starting with like 5 villagers needs to stop. Just play Starcraft if you want Starcraft.I really want to make an rts that is actually good. It's on my list of "Games to Make once I make it"
>>493299356yeah, hold on, let me just blindly go into making a game with no knowledge of scripting or making 3d models so that I can truly tell you that your art looks like something my 12 year old cousin would do on a friday after school.>yeah lets make everything pink and blue>hmm and proportions? nah. none of that.>but how about we make eveery singl non character or menu asset be free assets available online! not a single original one!
nigga I'm boutta go BANANAS
>>493297241Man this whole thing just feels like a clusterfuck that will implode upon itself and they'll end up rewriting it for the next release because I can't make heads or tails of what the fuck is going on. Something that is normally handled by a single thing in all other engines should not require a spider web of up down and sideways communication between 4+ nodes to work.
>>493299245The chair tutorial from blenderguru is alright.
>>493299886It's really not that difficult thougheverbeit.
>>493299560>Why reinvent the wheelTo fly.
My game is NOT PoE………
>>493300082Pillars of Eternity is too good anyways
>>493297241THIS IS THE POWER OF GODOT
>>493300078wheels dont make you fly you dumbass, you're just reinventing wings at that point.
>>493300082well yea, your's worse...
>>493299694>it's like knowing about BTC back in 2010 and did a lot of research but all you did was sit on the sidelines for years while watching others make itOuch. I got 0.01 out of some Bitcoin faucets back then. Why didn't I just buy some?
>>493299746>t. nodev crab
Waiter, can we have a crab salad please.
>>493300205>This nigga hasn't seen back to the future 2.We don't need roads here we're going
>>493299746Do you seriously not have a gameWhat are you doing here if you don't have a game
>>493295053I decided to buy it despite the censoringSupport your local furry devs, FeelsGoodMan.jpeg
>>493299715>DESU RTS games shouldn't start with a few units i think it is kinda necessary for the pacing. like having that slow build up from sparse and chill early game to a super sweaty and intense lategame is important for making sure the player doesn't get exhausted. what is dumb is that usually the early game is the exact same, like the first 10 minutes is just rote build order shit with very little deviation. that part can go away.>I really want to make an rts that is actually goodit's on my bucket list as well, but i think the genre has a lot of poisonous trappings so it'd be hard to make 1 i'd be happy with. only like Company of Heroes 1/2/3 has come close to what i think is good about RTS, and even that game isn't that great or even a real RTS
I WILL take 10 years to make my first game if I have toI WILL take my 14 reviews when it's done andI WILL cry, quit gamedev, and get a real job afterI didn't wanna be a gamedev, I wanted to make my dream game and impress people. And at this point I don't think impressing people is possible, so I'll settle for (sunk cost fallacy) finishing what I started.
>>493299039Am I having a stronk or are your sentences not making any sense?
>>493300363Don't you see you will never make it ever, never make it you will never make it make it never make it weewooweeewooo
>>493299783I didnt get to meet Concerned Ape, so I'm obviously bitter and my judgment is blurred by being sad.Event started at 4. A lot of people were there since 3 but we're told to walk around or go somewhere else. Exactly at 3:45 there was a lot of confusion what is happening, I saw at least 2 different ends of the line. I am not able to force my way through people, being in a space that crowded makes me really panicked so I tried to politely go to the end of the line. When I found actual end of the line, it was closed already. They told me it may reopen or may not. So I waited. Well it did not reopen. Opening the line 15 minutes before meet up seems really weird for me and puts people with anxiety and reduced mobility kind of at a lost position. I usually try to be earlier for the things I care about bc I know I wont be able to "fight" for my place in a queue.Also, the time and place was quite weird. I mean there are great meet up places here at PAX, so a shop in a crowded expo hall is certainly a decision. As for the time well maybe CA didnt want or couldnt attend a longer meet up that is fine just 2 hours at a game convent for such a popular creator seems quite short. But I cannot really be mad at this, its great that there was a meet up at all. Oh and bc the expo hall was closing at 6, the event ended a couple minutes sooner so not really 2 hours.And ofc you can say that it was stupid of me to wait there but Im not from the USA and it was probably the only possibility in my life to meet with a creator of one of my favorite games. I actually didn't know hes going to be here at PAX so I left my switch physical version at home so I bought another one to have it signed. It didnt work out.In the end I have mixed feelings right now. Its very recent so Im sad and frustrated, but it will pass. Im really happy and grateful for the gesture of giving us postcards through enforcers. And look at it, I got a banana
>>493300210Please learn basic English before crabbing my game, thank you
>>493299746>yeah, hold on, let me just blindly go into making a game with no knowledge of scripting or making 3d modelsLiterally the best way to learn. Pull up a basic tutorial if you need to get your feet wet and learn how to navigate the UI, like if you've never even launched Blender before then maybe go through the donut tutorial. But once you've covered the basics you should drop the tutorials and just make game. You'll learn what you need.
>>493300667Same except I will get 20 reviews, 10 from strangers and 10 from my siblings, yes I'm from Utah
>>493298850marketting is not shoehorning your game into whatever meme is trendy on twitter and begging for wishlists. here is some steps i followed by accident>make something similar to what variety streamers are playing lately.>make the surface level of the game easy to enjoy to add mass appeal. lots of people are looking for 3 hours of fun and then something new tomorrow>make the game fun for autists to ensnare them. lots of people are looking for 20 hours of challenge modes / stamp collecting / speedrunning / etc, and a community to circlejerk with>make use of the valuable resources you already have (as a noob demoday for playtesting, steam nextfest for wishlists, some mild reddit shilling helps but not too much. if you can make a webgame that is better than the average garbage thousands of children will flock to your banners)>make the most of your luck (someone is streaming your game? hop into the chat and be cool and friendly. your game gets popular on itch? release a major update to reinvigorate the algorithm. etc) thats as far as i have gotten so far
>>493298284>>493298908the guy who replied to you with the shartformer isn't me dumbass
Does anyone have a solution to this issue?https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/69771
>>493301028just add a bigger hitbox
>>493300630Right. The goal imo is to get to the meat of the game asap. Starcraft actually does this pretty well. If you know what you're doing you can get some stuff going by like 4 minutes. Age of Empires takes FOREVER.I wouldn't worry about breaking what is an RTS. If an RTS is AoEII, then this mold must be broken and re-defined.
>>493301028Put a dummy Node3D in between the SpringArm3D and the Camera. The bug only exhibits if the Camera is a direct child of the SpringArm3D but if you put another node in the middle then the margin property will work correctly and you won't have clipping

>>493296305My problem with AI-gen music is if there's a little part I don't like the only option is to throw it all out and start again.I wish AI would spit out midi or .flp files or something you can take and continue working on.>>493301028Program your own springarm and use DirectSpaceState3D.cast_motion(), it's what I did.
My game will have the vibe of graves era misfits

Who ordered the shitty drawing again?
>>493302151how does it only have 4 reviews after all this time thats fucking sad. Bokube is clearly going to get more than 4 that last trailer should make it obvious.
>>493293769that's where he keeps me
I have never made a game,im not making a game and i will never make a game.Your game sucks you should stop making it and become a nodev like me.
>>493301701You should report him for microaggressions

>>493302391Mystery finally solved
>>493302595he should switch to a better gaming system
>>493300532>what are you doing in the game development gen developing a game?????I don't know man, probably planning to develop a fucking game?
>>493302337>Bokube is clearly going to get more than 4not like it's going to matter much since bokube took like 6x times the amount to make
>>493302216What is she hanging from?
>>493293581Honestly, it's a mixed bag, my dude. On one hand, having AI that can actually string together coherent thoughts without sounding like a wannabe philosopher from a high school debate club would be lit. But on the other hand, the current vibe of chatbots is kinda funny in a cringey way. Kinda like watching a train wreck—you can't look away. So, yeah, gotta admit I'm low-key worried about losing that unintentional meme magic if they get too polished. Where's the soul, ya know?
>>493297241thats not unreal
When you're happy and successful there's people around you, but when you're sad and struggling there's never anyone there to support you
>>493303281Totally get what you’re saying, senpai. It’s like, chatbots right now are kinda like that one awkward kid who tries too hard but still ends up being endearing in a way. They’re like those old-school webcomics—rough around the edges but with a certain charm. Once they get all slick and polished, they might lose that raw, hilarious, train-wreck vibe that makes them fun to interact with. It's like if they get too good at their job, they’ll lose that “lol, did it really just say that?” factor. Keep it real, AI; don’t lose that quirky soul we all secretly love.
I'm looking for UI references, got any reccs for games set in medieval Erope with nice UIs? Particularly strategy games but anything is ok
>>493303603no?
>>493303669i don't have any, sorry
>>493303603I guess I'm happy and successful then
>>493303603i have my wife, parents and brother supporting me now as a failure, never been successful so idk how that would be

it's the type of tiredness that no amount of sleep or rest can fix
>>493304498>no amount of sleep or rest can fixwhat about jerking off?
>>493304498that's called stress and it's not tirednesspeople need to learn this
>>493300919>make something similar to what variety streamers are playing lately.aaand here we have to part ways. I feel your method is working but I my current project is not really 'streamer friendly'. I think we're aiming at different demographic, and mine is significantly smaller, but that's ok.
>>493304181Thanks, I'll look there. I would like to know which games to check out if you know any>>493302474Cool-looking game. The UI looks nice too but a little cluttered, have you tested your UI on people new to your game?
>>493304498I've been nodevving for 3 weeks playing games, I recommend that type of resting
How do I make my game more visually appealing?
>>493305528crank the contrast level up.

>>493305528Choose an artstyle, create a coherent vision of your game and make it unique.
>>493305259I don't think I can provide specific recommendations unless I know more about your game.

I guess 4.2 is where I get off the godot train, I'm not going to upgrade to some half baked shit that doesn't even have working IK.>JuSt MaKe It YoUrSeLf!

>>493306710>google "godot 4 3d ik">countless tutorials, videos, and working examples of itNot trying to be a cultist here but literally what problem are you having with IK that other people aren't?
I really like the art style of fear and hunger that resembles pixel art but is just hand drawn, do you think that could work for an action game like a zeldalike?
godot bros???
>>493307248you wont make it so why do you care
>>493307162>what problem are you having with IK that other people aren't?They broke the skeletonIK3D node from what I can tell because they changed the way it's parent class functions in 4.3. I have no problems with IK in 4.2.. well actually no I do have problems because the IK node pole target doesn't work, but I can do without it.>>493306931Yeah now rewrite a multiple bone chain solver 3 times in under 6 months.

>>493308043Wind Waker did this and nobody cared
I don't know what to focus on!!!!3D art? 2D art? Programming? Just throwing shitty games together despite being a beginner at all of these things? But when I do that I realize I need better assets to make it good. I like 3D art but I need to work on 2D to make textures better. But if I work on art then I'm not making game
what does bocchi has to do with video games development
bocchi is /agdg/ culture thougheverbeit
>>493308280Never and I repeat it, never take advice from gamedevs about how your game look, they will nitpick every pixel, meanwhile gamers will eat it up with all the animation bugs, clipping, and minor visual glitches.
My fucking game plays exactly like Deus Ex. Down to every detail. The only difference really is the setting and narrative. It's fucking over.>BUT THAT'S LE GOOD!No it is not. It's a borderline ripoff when it comes to gameplay. It wasn't my intention to make a Deus Ex CLONE, I wanted something more unique. I fucked up and now people are gonna say my game is shit.

>>493295053One is a kangaroo, the other is a dingo. Also, i think the dingo might still be in that game as one of those figurines.
Bocchi should be the new /agdg/ mascot, she's literally /agdg/
>>493309971what is a dingo? like wendingo?
>>493302216Draw my shitty character instead of shitty anime characters
>>493310135how much ?
>>493310029a dingo is basically a dog in its natural state without human genetical interference
>>493307306>>493307828I like the cringe logo because it means Godot will have fewer invaders. Probably at least half of the Godot userbase should fuck off and go use Unity instead.
It's not cringe. It's iconic.
>>493310446this but iconically
Designing fake logos and branding for my game is fun.
I got this from stack overflow to make a c# console application server and client.It works on localhost and I am able to send 1 message from the client to the server, but if I try a second time it closes.Does anyone know how to continue the session?I only have mobile hotspot internet so I cannot do port forwarding.If I make an amazon ec2 instance and do port forwarding on that will I be able to connect my client over hotspot or do you need port forwarding on both client and server?

Remember to follow boilerplate advice and perform pointless wellness rituals like eating healthy and exercising just in case they increase your chances of achieving your goals (they don't). There are costs for every choice we make. Eat "healthy"? Waste time craving food. Exercise? Less time to do more important things? Read Marcus Aurelius? Become a marble-statue-profile-pic weirdo and alienate yourself more from normal people.I'm eating this shit so I don't have to buy new wardrobe for fall/winter. I'm exercising because I don't want to look like easy prey. My game would be what it is no matter what other things I do.

I like when a portal tells you where you're about to go
>>493313263I love countermelodies ever since I found out what they are when this composer added a variant of one track "track_combat3_with_countermelody.ogg" and I thought it sounded great.

>>493308091No, I'll just stick to 4.2 until they fix IK. 4.3 doesn't add anything I need.Actually I just got it working, in 4.2 you had to disable the bones in the skeleton to do bone scaling or at least my code had it for some reason. In 4.3 disabling the bones seems to disable all pose overrides on them.
The last progress before DD, buttons scale up when hovered by mouse.

>>493313704So you abandoned journey in azur, a space game about factions of colonists to make... a space game about factions of colonists?Azur looked way more interesting btw.
Working on that Halloween game a little more, I wonder if focusing so much on the DDP-like proximity damage like I am here will be detrimental to the design
>>493313460concord
>>493314168I thought the artstyle looked familiar
>>493299084It's called RPG Maker. Stuck with tile-based movement though.
>>493314168One is a shitty tactics game the other is a management sim
>>493313460is this a custom engine?
>>493314332rpg maker can't make action rpgs except basically HEX editing the engine.
>>493314438Yes that's rpg maker

>>493314438no thats godot
>>493314690lmao
>>493314703godon't*
>>493314686because in 2003 there'a hex patch illegal version.In xp and VX there's scripts.
>>493310652Do you have WcDonald’s in your game?
>>493313460I really hope this will be an immersive walking sim about overcoming the struggles of gender dysphoria and depression, also fatherhood and losing a close family member. if not i wont be playing it, sorry!
Would you consider this a success for 9 years of work? (part time)
>>493314857What does this "hex patch illegal version" let me do in rpg maker that I can't already do?
>>493314438actually most people wouldnt guess this but its written purely in assembly coding using the bevy engine
Does this look like a dryad?
>>493315147In 2003 it allows shit like making 3D games and shumps.

>>493305003see like its not like pogo3d is yet another clone of only up. its actually a counterstrike surf clone which is a very autistic niche interest. but it does NOT wear this inspiration on its sleeve.think about it this way. the only time it matters how similar your game is to something people have already played is for that first demographic:>make the surface level of the game easy to enjoy to add mass appealthis helps you cast a wide net.its ok to make something weird and esoteric but i think a talented game developer can make a game appear like something its not from the trailer and early gameplay, but still grip people with something unique and interesting as soon as you take a real bite of it.

>>493319450
I make upwards of minimum wage
>>493319450>t. zoomer who has never spent any real money in his lifeHe was correct to say "upwards of 20k". You picked one of the most expensive ones as an example. It's like how new home prices are advertised as "starting at 180k", but it really means that the one that you want is 400-800k. Too bad you wouldn't know that, poorfag.
>>493316341Well like anything done in excess you've conditioned your brain to the dopamine and now you can't go without it. You can't fight off the gooning desires with dopamine from exercise anymore, good job.

>100 JoinedThere are too many devs. More of you need to give up and go do something productive with your life instead.
I just found a bug in my game.The saving system no less.
Long story short, I think I'm about to get fired. I've only had this job for 5 months. I'm not being given any new assignments even when I ask for them (a reoccurring theme since I started), my coworkers have basically stopped acknowledging that I exist, and I was "accidently" taken off the email list for a couple upcoming company events, including an after work party that's next Friday that I only know exists because someone accidently brought it up to me before abruptly stopping mid sentence and changing the subject. I have enough money saved to pay my rent and expenses for the remaining half of the year until my lease runs out. Worst comes to worst I can move back in with my parents, but I'd prefer to have a new job lined up by then. I have no idea how bad this short stint is going to look on my resume or how I'm going to explain it in future interviews. What I do know is that my life for the next 6 months is going to be nothing but applying for jobs and devving. This is all assuming I do actually get shitcanned.
>>493320359I found 5 in mine.
>>493320227Oh so they’re advertised as “starting at” and not “upwards of”? How curious!
Whats AGDGs stance on rpgmakerAre rpgmaker games allowed in the demo day
>>493320347there's no way there has been 100 different game progress posted in agdg the last two month.
>>493320450Yeah.
>>493320374>I have no idea how bad this short stint is going to look on my resume or how I'm going to explain it in future interviews. Lie and say it was a 6 month temp contract.
>>493320450children are not allowed in Demo Day
>>493320247Or maybe the advice is bullshit and you can't outlift an unsatisfied sex drive?
>>493320374>remark to my coworker its weird we have a phone at our desk because as devs we never use it>he says yeah if the phone rings thats a bad sign>2 days later>receive a phone call>get fired
>>493320374maybe you should have hid your powerlevel a bit and actually tried being a normal office soldier instead of being a sperg
>>493320442You say upwards of to make the amount sound high and starting at to obfuscate a high amount as low. American zoomers are worse than ESLs.
>>493320516the actual devs stay in the discord because the thread is full of retards
Is it even worth trying to get a high paying job when all I hear is people getting fired from them
>>493320962like you?

>>493320537Funny you should say that. I left out a lot of information because I didn't want to type an entire essay, but I was given a 6 month contract when I was hired. They said "my position would be evaluated at the end of the term" or something like that. That's why I feel so certain that I'm being sacked.>>493320723I didn't even have an opportunity to be a good wagey. They immediately hired 3 attractive summer interns less than a week after I joined and reassigned all my projects to them, leaving me with a single assignment to drag out over the next 3 months. Whenever I asked for more work my supervisors would always tell me the same thing: they didn't have any assignments for me at the moment, but I always knew what they really meant. In reality they didn't want to take the time to explain new concepts to an inexperienced employee who'd have lots of questions. Yet for some inexplicable reason these same people never had any qualms with explaining even the most basic procedures to our pretty interns in long, arduous detail.Then the interns went back to school and finally it was time for me to get more assignments. Only as soon as they left another entry level employee was hired, and lo and behold she was also young and pretty. In the few short weeks she's been at the company she's been invited to countless meetings and taken out to business lunches with clients. I've been "invited" to one meeting as a last minute thing because someone called in sick and they needed me to take notes for her. I wasn't even given a chance.

:: Project Nortubel ::progress :: Still have stuff to do like the lines.
I've fixed a ton of bugs and now only one remains. I'm still cutting the release because I've tried to reproduce it but I seemingly can't- it's one of those insidious little bastards where it's not game-breaking and also not consistent. Added some logging to try and catch it in the act but we shall see. Fucking hate deploying with a known bug but LGTDD.

it's so painful to learn new skills all the time people who can work 12 hours all the time have an existing skillset and they can just groove in a flow state instead of being interrupted by tutorial hell every time you need to do a new step in modelling/rigging/animating/texturing

I think most of you don’t actually want to be serious developers you just want to play show and tell with your gay little internet friends on demo day and get hugboxxed
can we use chatgpt to code games for us yet?
what have i missed devsters?
how does dd work is the submission period seperate from the playing period? am i cucked if i dont have shit ready in 6 hours?
>>493324846No you’re cucked if you give your game away for free like a retard
>>493320450biggest games on DD are RPGmaker games
>>493324846There is zero separation. Almost no one plays demo day submissions after the first two days. So yes you will miss out if you don't submit within the first 6 hours.
>>493324846in addition to what anon said, virtually all streams happen near the start

>>493320374I've got the opposite problem, everyone at my job likes me and is constantly making excuses for my failures yet I'm so miserable and hate my job so much that I end up calling out constantly and fucking everything up to the point where they'll probably have no choice but to fire me. I'm also wrangling the idea of just moving back in with my parents and trying to recover my psyche but unfortunately my parents' house is overcrowded with my retarded NEET siblings so the quality of life would be very low
>>493320374>sit there doing what you can until they fire you>softly chuckle and apply for unemploymentwhat's the issue?
>>493325375It used to be safe to submit late due to some streamers doing "play/stream all submissions" but no streamer does that anymore because there are just too many submissions. The oversaturation is so bad even agdg has 2-3 times too many devs and too many games.
I have meandered and tested and wandered so wildly learning unreal that now that I know how to do what I want to do my scripts(blueprints) looks like a blackberry thorn bramble. Should I start a new one and just redo the stuff I've figured out clean or just let it ride and accept that it'll run like shit and be hell to fix?
>>493320374go talk to your manager/supervisor, retard.don't just let things happen to you, and it will look better if your hunch is actually right.

>>493315134not really. not enough reviews and likely not a big enough fanbase made to convert into sales on new games made. there is however one big gain from this>freedom from a project that the dev likely felt chained down bystory is different if this is something 100 sales per review and the game costed 14.99, not amazing but it's definitely a "i'm free and got an okay lump sum out of it.">>493313031your meals look tastier than mine....all because you added a variety of veggies and beans to the dish on the right. if i was rich i'd probably put more effort into my meals but it's just too time consuming as a commoner, at least for me>>493317453kekd
I don't know what the hell these trannies did to godot, there's so much input lag in 4.3. Been trying to use it all day and I can't stop noticing how much slower it feels navigating around in the editor. I don't know if I'll be able to make the jump.

Alright I haven't given up on my dream project but it would be cool to finish something and get something under my belt while I'm busy with other things in life.So hear me out ... a text-based detective rpg.

>>493328182>It just tastes like wet cardboard because it's vegetablesYou need to stir fry the vegetables with like onion, garlic, sesame oil etc.I used to get cans of cheap 'vegetable soup' (really just soup stock and tomato paste) and pour in frozen vegetables and a chunk of bouillon cube to make a filling soup for weight loss, there's like no calories in it at all since vegetables are so garbage.

I know in order to progress in my career regardless i have to learn a lot social skills, not just technical skills. I'm 23 and i still looking for a job. I do have 12 months of internship experience as a QA tester, but that was unpaid and i have to do 4 hours of commute. My deepest fear is having a job like that again. I don't want that. Im studying leetcode and working on some react / laravel project on my portfolio in this Q4. I hope i can get a job in 2025 and stick in that company for at least 2 years before looking for something better. I know i have to make my presence known and respected, and to do that i have to learn fast and ditch any time for hobbies that are constructive. I can exercise, watch movies, or play video games at home but i feel like that's turning me into a nobody who is just a salaryman. If i don't have my own audience on social media from making art or posting game development logs, I'm a nobody. If i don't write a blog on substack, I'm a nobody. But what can i do? Workhours takes a significant portion of the week, not to mention the commute.
>>493330313why not put every passing thought on the internet? not like you fags can stop me
>>493329804Is there even a license that says you can use it for everything except X form of media? That just sounds like something they made up

>>493330540you can make licenses whatever you want
>>493329280But come to think of it. Making a detective game is a hard task. How do you get people to test it? They will end up spoiling themselves before it is refined later. I guess I could distribute a demo that tests the systems but has a plot different from the final product.>>493329602I think the game sounds and voice over together sound distracting.

Does anyone know a good resource for figuring out how to do diagonal ramps connected to differing height levels/cliffs on a top-down 2d game? Something like Starcraft basically, but with WASD movement instead of pathfinding nodes. I thought this would be simple at first but it has turned into this massive undertaking where I feel like I'm starting to get in over my head, especially when fog of war/vision radius is factored into it.
>>493332893That's a sign of an inferior mind. A true renaissance man takes delight merely in the act of emulating God's creation.
>>493333497go to hell retard
>>493333442What do you mean? A ramp in starcraft is just a walkable tile, the only difference between low ground and high ground is that units in low grow get their visibility occluded by high ground tiles, and that accuracy penalty thing. There's no special math involved.
This is ai generated. When can we generate our art assets and ditch programmer art?
>>493332592actually passable if you improve the face and animate it well, cris.
>>493333718Another inferior mind lashing out at truths he doth not understand.
>>493333817Not in the foreseeable future, because it's a useless toy. Go back to /g/, tranny.

>>493334512>I think I've finally mastered my style.you've said countless times already
>>493333776I might just be overthinking it I guess. For some reason I thought that when units in Starcraft walked up a ramp they gained a y-axis modifier to make it seem like they were higher up, but now that I think about it, everything in that game was just a flat tile basically, and when a unit walks "up" a ramp their y value isn't offset by anything. Basically I'm retarded
>>493334736you can always improve.>>493334726what do you want to know?
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCKI Figured it out. This is why 4.3 has been running like shit. They introduce this new shit for people with potato computers and then enable it by default. Again with this shit, godot 3.x came with low processor mode on by default which cut the performance to nothing so it would run on toasters. 8 hours wasted because I thought godot 4.3 was fucked under the hood and it turns out to be some power saving setting.
was i really born just to make bad games
>>493334895V-Sync is good thoughever.
>>493334801Yeah, you're just overthinking it. There's no z axis in broodwar. Units walk up and down ramps at the same speed, unlike age of empires 1 or 2 where there's actual terrain elevation, but it feels like ass.

>>493338823why do "devs" keep putting their 3-month slop projects on steam
>>493339261Obviously it leans heavily on the genre and amount of content. A $3 puzzle game might have 20 hours of content, but a $3 roguelite shooter might have 20 hours too and sell more.
>>493339427>3 monthif only
>>493339440>within a set of tags>>493339415A graph of price vs revenue would be useful. You could see where revenue tends to peak. Games stats already has this data, but they don't present it that way

>>493341268lots of good ideas never make it to the design stagethe filters being money and time of courseanyway lots of ideaguys ideas suck are just overambitious
the 30 ideas are for shit to add to my game however
Do you guys not recommend gamemaker? I was trying to fuck around with Godot for fun but it instantly crashed when I created a new project
>4 HOURSSSS????? to DD
next demo day... for sure
>>493341496JLMG in whatever you want. Godot is not particularly beginner friendly.
cris keeps winning.

>>493339943>long agothe animation was very cool desu pretty easy to remember something like that>linerendererskek i used that, doesn't look as good. it also varies from attack to attack. some use the linerenderer, some use the particle system, and others literally spawn a sprite to get the effect i want.
>>493341496You have to pay for it, and for most things paying yearly for a game engine is pretty dumb when most are free
>>493315134Yes. Not monetarily.
>>493342163They have a free tier now because they couldn't (and still can't) compete with Godot.
>>493341496Dude what? Gamemaker is sweet, this game >>493313460 was made fully with gamemaker in 1.5 months
>>493341839>"guys I have passion for game dev and art, I don't care about money!">begs the AI to make everything for him
>>493342829>Don't use a printer>Spent 10 years writing the book by hand
>>493342926Man, this doesn't even work as an analogy. How is it possible to be this retarded? Lmaoo
>>493342926A printer is not even the tool you would use to avoid having to write the book by hand. You are thinking of a keyboard.
>>493343008>>493343071How did books before the printing press were made?
>>493341496It's my next intended engine once I'm done with this game in Unity. I don't trust Godot in it's current state, needs more years in the oven imho. I can just take advantage of Gamemaker owners panicking that they're going out of style and use it without a monthly subscription just to make the game.
where do you get inspiration for your game
oh boy looks like is cris cope time
>>493343129That's not the point, and shut the fuck up, soulless retard.
>>493343182By playing good, fun games.
>>493343212retard doesn't know monks used to make books by hand.
>>493343182I never understood people who struggle creatively. Inspiration for game ideas is literally everywhere I look and every thought I think. I only write down my good ideas because if I wrote down everything I gave a passing thought to I'd be writing every second of the day.
>>493343182from the best, no less
>>493343129>How did books before
occult fleshcrafting
>>493343129You don't write books with a printing press.The book already must be written before you print it!
>>493343459thoughbeit
did a dry run of my game and fixed every bug that i foundmade art assets and took screenshots for the itch.io pagecreated a zip file with everything needed to run the gamewhat am i forgetting?
>>493343459books are older than the printing press.>>493343513Books were made by hand and took 10 years to make a bible back then.
>>493342926You are not printing your work, you are letting a machine generate it because you are a lazy hack.Know the difference, cris.
>>493343378Like what
>>493343615no diferent from using blender to render something or using a phone camera to take a video.It's similar to hiring a human to do the work for you.
>>493343745>no diferent from using blender to render something you have to make the model first, retard
It's funny telling the retard that he is indeed being retarded, but it's sad that the retard doesn't realize that.
>>493343584The Bible (with a capital B) was already written long before the printing press. The latter only enabled faster distribution of the book. Why do you dig down on this? The analogy wasn't good.
>>493343182Just use AI
>>493343815>>493343829You don't make the art when you hire a human to do your idea.I guess kojima didn't made his games he directed.
Don't reply.
>>493341839STANHIM VALLE IMPACT
>cris thinks he's like kojima for telling a machine to generate slop
>>493344092the customer doesn't care how the product is made.
>>493344154Too bad the customer can realize the product is AI generated slop and avoid it. You didn't think that far, did you, retard?
>>493344154but fans do
>>493344154>the customer doesn't care how the product is made.nothing wrong with making slop to appeal to "customers", just don't pretend there's passion and care behind it (specially after typing out such sentence) lol
>>493344327>>493344412>>493344416most people wont care.Just like 99% of the shit you buy at the supermarket was made with machines and not by a human master worker.
>>493344575>most people wont care.I'm making my game for a niche audience of art enjoyers. (of which I am included)
>>493344575What makes you think people will care about your slop over the slop other people made with the same tool? I assure you that if you can use it, any random retard would be able to use it as well. You have no valuable skills.
>>493344575>>493344154people don't care so long as the product has a semblance of quality, which admittedly is not the care with your stuff.
>>493344154Then why do people pay as much as double for produce marked "organic"?
>>493344689>>493344742>>493344769do you care your car is basically automated 99%?do you care your food is now produced in an automated factory?>>493344803because there's not demand for that shit except for a couple niche white liberal vegan demographic.
>>493344875Your analogies make no sense, delusional retard.
>>493344575food you buy at the supermarket is designed by humans, retard produce selectively bred over thousands of generations, chemical slop mixed up in a lab to replicate a flavor, etc the recipe for cheerios was thought up by a human, not an algorithm
>>493343182i started to draw a few weeks ago
>>493344875This whole argument was about you saying you have a passion for art, not about people willing to buy slop btw
>>493344875>he thinks high-quality food sources are a liberal valueLiberals want to feed the world. That means producing as much food as possible regardless of quality.
>>493345191>>493345020>>493344986AI is just a new tool, similar to blender and maya and Vray and Godot.>>493345291liberals want to ban meat and push for organic vegan food.
I've already come to terms with the fact that no matter how many decades I pour into this game, it's doomed to fail. The best I can hope for is that, maybe one day when I'm long dead some poor bastard stumbles across it, plays it for a minute and for that brief moment a piece of me will still exist.
>>493344875My car and my food is not art. My game is. buying my game is akin to paying an entrance fee to visit an art museum
>>493345376you don't have a game
>>493345647photography wasn't considered an art form when it was invented.
>>493345369Ok let's put it differently then.Why doesn't your stuff have an ounce of the appeal of the top selling AI gacha game Nikke?
>>493345191ayo dis sloppa be boppa like a doppa git to the choppa mi goppa
High quality art is as much about the artist and the audience as it is about the content. Unironically, cris-core games currently are art- the artist may be a schizo, but they're uniquely cris. Adding AI trained on everything that blends it all out into a grey slop will dehumanize the work, make it worse. There is a difference between industrialized white bread made by the tonnage and homemade bread with its imperfections and unique touches, and you can't just hand-wave it away. To say art isn't unique and enjoyable just shows that the viewer can't connect with the artist, refuses to participate as an audience, and ultimately is disconnected from the world.
>>493345738the issue isn't drawing waifu wifu asuka taking BBC using reference.That's something every guy with 5 years of drawing experience can do.The issue is economics.Finding a way to produce the asstes in a way that fits your product budget.Nobody gives a shit if you can make a single frame in 20 hours at the quality of that shit.
>>493345673that's why I said "this game" and not "my game"it's a piece of shit game I've poured thousands of hours into but very little to show for it.
is this guy even responding to the posts he's quoting
>>493345692Plagiarism machine. No expression. Just plagiarism. AI can be used as a tool, but 99% of the time it's people using the output as is.
>>493346010report and ignore
>>493345805I spent basically 10 years developing this style.It's an expression of my own artistic taste.>>493346028A computer is just a tool, it can't create art of it's own volition, since It lacks volition.
>>493346010No, just ignoring the content and repeating AIfag talking points. next he'll be telling us it learns like a human.
>>493346170AI learns in the sense it finds repeated statistical patterns on the data.

>>493346586I just realized it's the same woman with a wig. I was high last time I saw this.
>>493346785I fun with my game, then I realized I was just goofing around and pushing npcs about instead of playing the game
>>493346785and how can anyone help you if you dont post a webm or a screenshot at least.

>>493347062I use AI for code and hate on people using it for Art.
>>4933461072d to 3d and then back to 2d...?
>>493292238Sexy bitch
>>493347540It's cheaper to animate using a 3D model.I do 2D references, then do a 3D low poly model, to render as 2D and convert into pixel art.Plus doing 2D HD anime portraits.It's a hybrid style made from multiple other styles.
>>493347062I just don't know how to you practiced for so many years yet your output is not good. There's a problem somewhere in there that needs to be fixed.
I miss when cris would work on his art workflows instead of acting like a pajeet npc who shills for ai
>>493347713>>493348108I can spend 3 days making a drawing, and I have a couple of those made, which looks professionally made.But that's not of concern to me.It's pointless a style that would require too much effort to make.It's pointless to me a style that looks amazing but where I will spend a month making a single 3D model.I can't make a videogame with those styles.So I focused on developing much cheaper styles.Because to me it's more important if the style is reliable and cheap than being the highest quality.
>>493348291shut up faggot

how's your last minute bug fixes coming along, anons?
>>493348108how can you tell when it's cris and when it's just someone else?
>>493349294someone is retarded enough to save all his pics with the filenames to larp as him... for (you)s?

>>493349904Happy birthday!

>>493350000checked. Thanks>>493350125no i just have a wife who hates me after she lost a bunch of weight lmao
Did 3D dwarf fortress dev finish the terrain rendering yet?
>>493348108I think it's totally reasonable to look towards AI tools to fill some intermediary steps in a workflow. There are a few things that are usable right now, like Cascadeur animations and StableProjectorz "handpainted" textures. Nothing's good for end-to-end asset production, but by mixing those with some assets (for example, free base meshes), you can produce fairly high quality assets with a "cheap" workflow.
>>493346785I get stuck playing my game because its fun and kind of addicting and make less progress as a result>>493346107I think 2018 looks the best
>>493349904happy birthday anon! welcome to your 30s, it's hell
>>493296172never seen this before, looks neat but the lightsaber swinging with the mouse looks awkward in a not so fun way
>morning again in Bombay >AI shills crawl out of the woodwork like clockwork
In the first month of high school, back when we were all 13 and awkwardly trying to fit in, I made the brilliant decision to throw a party and gave out cheesy birthday cards. Nobody came.So there I was, alone in my bedroom, surrounded by childish decorations, party hats and a cake. Honestly, I'm kind of relieved no one showed up. Looking back, it was a pathetic scene like a party for children. Crazy how everyone matured quicker and started doing teenager stuff and I was still stuck in this childish phase.
>>493343619I'm not telling you my game ideas, I'm going to make all hundred-something of them that I have written down right now.
