How do I get good at character design?
I wasted my entire Saturday!Surely I'll get it together on Sunday!!Just one more day until it's back to the grind!!!!
[Bad News] I devved too much and now I'm sleepy.
>>498184089So true, anon. We're gonna make it.
Would you let Eric sign your girlfriend's eggs?
>>498182924The next thing you will say that nofap will not grant you superpowers?
>>498184259if by sign you mean fertilize then yes
>>498184259I don't have a girlfriend nor will I ever
but what if my game needs more than 16 million TB of RAM?
>>498183690I have never seen a girl irl wearing a skirt (excluding literal strippers/prostitutes/etc...).
>>498184089i made tons of progress this saturday but then github destroyed my project permanently
>>498184264Productivity is a superpower.
>>498184264That one is actually true unlike the oil stuff.
Use bevy.
>>498184762the west has fallen...
anyone making a video game?
>>498185059what's that?
>>498184948now, why would i vant that
>I think aggydaggy sucks!
>>498184762let me guess, you're an american
>>498184991only if they add gdscript support
>>498184762I'm sorry you were born too late.But on the flip side you might live long enough to see real anime robot girls wearing skirts in a few years.
>>498185508this but unironically
How do I develop self control? Every day I think about wanting to make a game but then I just go right back to the same old routine of scrolling through 4chan, jerking off, scrolling through my phone, playing games, repeat. I want to break this cycle but I don't have the willpower to force myself away from the things that bring me dopamine. I know I'm not the only one here who has this problem because I've been coming to these threads for an embarrassingly long time and I've read all the similar posts. I just want to do something with my life that's rapidly flying by.
>>498186172just like make game
>>498186172i completely lost interest in playing games as soon as i looked at my first gamedev tutorial
>>498186172Are you starting from scratch? Or do you have experience, like you know what you're doing and know how to make a game?
>>498184762the virgin biological female>jeans and a t-shirtthe chad crossdresser>a literal ballerina outfit
>>498186172distraction is just anxiety saying "it's too hard run away you're gonna die" You get less anxious the more you realize how easy and possible everything is to do.
>>498186172>How do I get to Carnegie hall? Practice, man. Practice.
>>498186720wtf i love trannies now
>be me>scroooopting>button connects to function that shows a sub-menu>click on the video sub menu button>it shows the video sub menu>click on options sub menu button>it shows the options sub menu>Clearly this is wrong, I want the options sub menu to show the options sub menu>can't figure out why the options sub menu button shows the options sub menu button>???>???>???>???>discover that it does exactly what it shouldI'm very tired after my 9-5 but you know what? I feel pretty good all things considered!
>>498186595I wish I could be like that. My brain is constantly bouncing around to different things I want to do. Wanting to make a game is basically the only consistent interest I've had throughout my life.>>498186703I'm starting from complete scratch. I have no useful skills for game dev whatsoever other than being a slightly above average yet still extremely amateur artist.
>>498187036>I'm starting from complete scratchUnironically ask ChatGPT to build you a learning program for what you're interested in doing. Remember: master one and dip into the others.
why does gamedev attract so many lazy loser types?
>>498186947I know that feel.
>>498186172Try to farm dopamine from (you)s under your progress posts?>>498185508
>>498187251for some reason grifters latched onto it as a get rich quick thing
>>498187036what game do you want to makei'll choose the engine for you depending on the answermake something small as a first project, preferably a copy of a game that already exists
>>498156521/agdg/ is retarded, and the last thing of worth made here was crumble
>>498187251Game dev is the rock star of our generation.
>>498187191This is probably where I'm at. I only put one point into game design because I like my own ideas, but in reality it's more like I should have zero points there as well.>Unironically ask ChatGPT to build you a learning program for what you're interested in doingI guess I could try this, but I don't really like the idea of using ChatGPT because I won't actually be learning anything. The moment I encounter a problem I'm not going to know how to fix it or even ask for help.
would gamedev help me get a game qa job?
>>498187523does it impress the ladies? I'm counting on it
>>498187709
>>498187251truthbomb: losers watch a video from a grifter saying shartdew tranney and undertale made 10000000000000000000 dollars and the games are so mid and ass that anyone think they can do the same, except it was a gold rush moment (the grifter won't sayt that tho)
gmi phenotype if she can actually code
>>498187251why does 4chan attract so many people who fail to realize that anyone who's still actively play and thinking about video games into their 20s and beyond is a lazy loser?
>>498174005Unfortunately I get a hollow feeling in my stomach and jitters if I consume nothing but coffee for too many hours.The first few hours on only coffee feel amazing, though>>498183525When my game makes a million dollars, I'll finally be able to buy the lego Millennium Falcon kit
>>498187881>only 300k sales>made itYeah no.
>>498187779>I'm different, instead I watch videos from a grifters making the same WOKE GAME FLOPPED video over and overYou are the same people. Go back to playing league of legends.
i was expecting people to say gamedev attracts lazy losers because GAMERS ARE LAZY LOSERS WHO WANT INSTANT GRATIFICATION who wasted their youths playing vidya and are looking for a way to prove otherwise by making one
>>498187881idk why russian/slavix women want to pass as brown so mucht. worked in dubai and istanbul and all the female tourists went to tanning salons all the time, the locals didn't get it either
so hard to construct the perfect game sometimes you have to use existing parts
>>498188090only boomers think gamers are lazy
>>498188118white people look better tan and browns look better when pale
>>498187881fuck why did you have to post this, this is my ideal woman.idk why petite South American women with glasses are so cute to me but I just love them so much. I want one as my gf.
Every second that passes, my game grows closer to being finished, and the window to try and clone my masterpiece and get ahead of the new gold rush closes a little more.
>>498188298they are approachable and the fact that theyre from third world makes it easier to run jbw and lower expectations
>>498188269>wasting that much time on a weekly basis just to change your skin color nodevs are mentally ill
>>498188264Gaming is a waste of time. It's a worthless, unproductive hobby. If gamers weren't lazy we'd be doing literally anything else instead of sitting in our rooms staring at a screen for hours. There is absolutely nothing to be gained from playing video games.
>>498188647ok boomer
>>498188647I'm gonna become a millionaire like the other frauds who made it with a shitty pixelshart game
>>498183690I love this artist's Priscilla stuff.
>>498187523FUCKING THISAlso can we learn something from bocchi?Should I wear a t-shirt with printed shit like "I AM GAMEDEVVER, I DEV", and walk everywhere with a laptop and developing in public places, so one day a blondie will approach me and suggest to join their team of talented devs?
>>498188516Just walk around without long sleeves, anon. You do get you daily amount of sunlight, don't you
>>498188473>they are approachableSpeak for yourself. There was a cute girl from Peru who had a crush on me in university and I never asked her out once during my 4 years of going to classes and working on project with her. I only know she had a crush on me because she told me during graduation. It still hurts me to this day that I never had the confidence to take my shot. My life could have turned out so different, maybe we'd still be together. I wonder what she'd do if she knew I turned into a lonely loser who sits in a dark room for hours every day posting about my dreams to one day make a video game on a website full of strangers who all hate me.
gaming is ez as fuck its designed for you to win unlike life. remember that when you make yours
>>498188118She is not a slav, more like tatar/bashkeer or some close ethnicity
>>498189064my games will have permanent death
>>498189064my game will uninstall itself in the event of a player loss
>>498187036it's no wonder that it could be hard to start game devving, being an ameteur artist is a bit existentially painful when taking account things like backgrounds angles and perspective, and 2d animationas much as i used to like drawing and had big dreams, thinking about it is just demoralizing now, that's why i'm so suprised to figure out i like making 3d stuff
>>498189064I think this is why I have no work ethic or motivation to improve myself. I played games all throughout my formative years and it taught me I can always just start over whenever the going gets tough.
>>498186172What's working for me is I have a separate room and game dev laptop in that room I only dev on. I set an alarm for 6 hours and let it tick whenever I'm at the dev chair and take breake every 1 or 2 hours. Progress is coming swimmingly.
i have no vision
>>498189064you are meant to spend your entire life on perfecting your skills in my gameit's endless fulfillment and that's my gift to you in this world of limitations
>>498186172just imagine being 10 years old than you are now and having no game. makes me get to work on things
Bros I just played the Garten of Ban Ban with my nephew and its actual dogshit. Proof that getting streamers to shill your game is more important than making a good game.
>>498189179She looks slavic to me idk what you're talking about
>>498189904Streamers will only shill your game if it makes for good content.
guys my game will look so cool end of day. i need to chainsmoke and work!! because now the AI swarm commander can execute strategies but I need to define the strategies. rolling windows of statistics. unit deaths, fights initiated, players killed. all metrics that are tallied up, indexed, compressed into scalars. its like macnamara that US politican guy. numbers numbers numbers thats all he cared about. the lord of numbers.
>>498189052>a website full of strangers who all hate me.I dont hate you also I have similar regrets
>>498189904honestly why even make a game if you're going to have this mindset. I make games because I have a vision and I love creating.Make a SAAS and juggle some APIs if this is all about money.
>>498190079are you schizophrenic?
>>498189052I'm gonna watch this movie again tonight. I wish there was a cyberpunk game that actually felt like the Blade Runners rather than the same old "Wowzah! Everything is NEON and JAPANESE!!" shit modern cyberpunk settings have degenerated into.
>>498190138on second thought, nevermind. I'm struggling to see if SAAS is more profitable than games.Perhaps make a large quantity of mobile games with ads if this is all about money.and localize for countries where it is likely they'd play phone games.
>>498189969She looks ethnic as fuck and this is her natural skin color my blind frenDid you know russia has tigers?
who wants to test my game? (not a virus)
>>498190574>She looks ethnic as fuckIs slavic not an ethnicity? This is just what they look like in my mind's eye idk what to tell you. I did know Russia has tigers but only because I really liked tigers as a kid.
What AI framework do I want if I want to create a 2D bossrush deflection-based action game(like Sekiro and Furi)....?
>>498190574>>498191074The Siberian Tiger is one of the most famous tiger species in the world, of course Russian tigers are known.
>>498191153gooooood morning sir
>>498191259It's boss behaviour AI, not MAAM DO NOT REDEEM AI you tranny retard niggerfaggot....
>>498190212NO. Internet posters are too quick to conflate eccentricity with schizophrenia or autism. maybe I should roll with it. Because if I was schizophrenic I'd be much more insufferable. you would see long screeds of word salads, religious connections, and paranoia about being watched by the government. and it would be so many posts in rapid succession. i would post all day non-stop about nothing important. and you would consume it as entertainment. maybe we are all schizophrenic.
>>498191662ok. what kind of game are you making
>>498190250What does it mean to actually feel like Blade Runner though? Why is Neon and Japanese wrong?
>learning c++ by building a directx 12 engine from scratchbecome the meme
>>498184762You gotta be born after 2000 there's no way..
>>498191074>>498191239I thought it is not an obscure joke about tigers
>>498192015>people born after 2000 are in their 30s now
>have the freedom to make whatever I want>start another fps project

Reminder that if anyone finds a waifuvania asset pack don't forget to post it.
>>498191662>Internet posters are too quick to conflate eccentricity with schizophrenia or autism"schizo" has become zoomer slang for edgy or eccentric. Most of them don't mean legitimate schizophrenia when they say it. What they mean is "wow that's crazy", but they use the word they saw on tiktok.
Two Thousand and One: A Game Odyssey
>>498191787its a roguelite MMORPG. But not like those MMORPGS. Its not about grinding and doing quests like killing 5 cows. you spawn into the world as part of a invasion wave. and you have to work with your allies to capture territory and gain loot + higher stats. but the world is large and persistent and there is all sorts of invasions going on. other players may invade you, or goblins will invade you. You are always being watched. eventually you will face the horde.
>>498192942holy kino
>>498186947This is why I stop programming now as soon as I get tired. The mistakes and clusterfuck of bad design aren't worth it.
>>498192396More like card games. Balatro exploded, now Liars Bar is exploding.
Open world deckbuilder.
>>498193705that new zelda game
>go back to old screenshots of your game>realize it looked SOULFUL in its own waybut back then i thought it looked like shit.
>studio released a game to 30 reviewsat this point do you just abandon ship and start a new project? looks like they want to keep working on it and patching but why?
>>498193705Wasn't there a MTG game that was basically that. You travelled through the land, got new cards and then beat the last boss with the cards you earned.
>>498189763thishttps://files.catbox.moe/w1ayto.mp4
>>498193878sunk cost
>>498193878It depends on the contract they have with the publisher. Like how long they signed up to support with patches and such,
my enemy AI units always beats the player AI units even though they have the exact same stats and there should be some randomness involved, and I have no idea what could be causing it. I don't know if I should take a look at the pathfinding/targeting code again, or say fuck it and I should just increase the player's unit stats.
>>498194463get good
>>498194463positioning?could be that they are deployed in a way that allows the enemy to focus a specific unit, giving them an edge
>>498184259Sure. But in return she'd have to let me doodle all over her body.
>>498193705>current year>there's STILL not an MMORPG-style card game that takes the best elements from HxH's Greed Island arc or YuGiOh's Duelist Kingdom arc and combines that into a playable experience where exploring the world, finding cards, and battling other players comes together as a cohesive in-world experienceIt truly baffles me, this is the wet dream of every card game player. But then again, pokefags have been asking for a genuine open world Pokémon game for decades and Gamefreak still shits out the same template based slop. Card games are pretty niche so there might not be an incentive for studios to take a risk on what would probably have to be a pretty big budget project in order to function properly.
leading a small team and wondering how to successfully inject my barely disguised fetishes into the game
>>498193917Yeh, Shandalar. Back in the pre-pozz days when MTG was kino in all respects.
holy shit I told chatgpt to write a complete game engine in c++ for me last night and it's still going
>>498195015>pokefags have been asking for a genuine open world Pokémon game for decadesI mean, love them or hate them Legends Arceus and Scarlet/Violet are that. All indicators seem to point to that being the direction they intend to take the series going forward.
>>498195015the whole "battling other players" thing is where it gets sloppy.If they're AI then it's very similar to other single player cardgame campaigns. If they're real, then this doesn't really work in a long term MMORPG. The entire game would be filled with irl Weevil Underwoods with min-maxed decks taking all the cards from noobies.You'd have to do some kind of battle royale type thing, and that would take some thinking, which is unheard of for corporate studios.
>>498184089Me too... fuck I need to do 12 more hours to complete my week.... another sunday I'll work... fuck kill me now
>>498195593I'm going to get drunk. Fuck it.
>>498192505what game a this?
>>4981959073d freelance work. Client wants 37 hours per week,.
>dev sober half the day>at 4pm go smoke weed and walk for 1 hour no headphones or phone>come up with crazy ideas and brilliant solutionsIt may be the key to game dev. I dounno how you can even shame me for doing this. Smoking and then walking in nature? That is way better than being sober and using that time starting at your phone consuming nonsense. Now I pity everyone. Even when I go walking I see sober normies who are not even present. They walk while their eyes are glued to their phones or they have large headphones in and have 0 awareness of the surroundings. WTF? I even see a couple walking together while their phone on speaker plays some podcast. It is like some cruel joke. But the zoomers are the worst for it. Eyes GLUED to the phone whiling walking outside. Just what is SO IMPORTANT? They should ban such things.
>>498186595I partially lost interest in playing games as soon as how it works was unveiled......gamedev was a mistake. Luckily I know how to reverse this>get rich>pay others to make games for me so the shroud comes right back over my eyesWahlah just like that I'm back. That or the doompill on gamedev fully destroys me and I give up on gamedev. That should get me all the way back to enjoying gaming easily again.
>>498195907READ anon, READ.
>>498196559in my defense that's not even the real name
>>498195471Maybe it could be like a Pokemon/Runescape hybrid where there's safe zone cities surrounded by wilderness areas full of monsters and NPCs. Players go out into the wilderness to do raids, grind low level monsters, fight NPCs, and earn cards. Then you can go back to the safe haven cities and battle other players in that city's "gym". That way there's opportunities for building different decks for grinding and decks for PvP fights.There could be random world events like a full moon or a meteor shower or whatever that might make certain cards more powerful. Maybe like in Pokemon certain cities are dedicated to a certain element and cards with that element get bonuses in those cities' gyms. Anything to create additional variables that encourage players to switch up their decks and prevent metas from forming and getting stale. Easier said than done of course.
>>498187251The youtube grifters. They made the entire process look super easy. Compound on top of that they keep getting shown games from a decade ago as making millions (rather than games of today) and people probably think "woah I can do better than that." All while ignoring just how much more the bar was raised in that 10 year period.For better reference imagine being shown games released in the early 90's making millions of dollars all while in current era and completely ignoring the fact just how far the bar has been raised. You're not likely to get away with graphics or gameplay at those levels today.I hate social media soooo much it's Unrealâ„¢. Today's message sponsored by Tim Sweeney for $10,000. Use Unrealâ„¢ or get give up!
>>498195471there's only one tcg where the playerbase would work for this.It's Pokemon TCG. It's the only game where you have masses and masses of young kids that have no idea what they're doing, and only a small part of the playerbase are competitive tryhards. If you mixed pokemon tcg with pokemon you could perhaps have some battle city shenanigans going on.
>>498196914and yet
>>498196914This is all true though
>>498196914the bar has only risen for derivative works
Why did he reply to his own post?
>>498195015Witcher 3, but every fight is Gwent
>>498196914This sort of attitude will cause you to fail at making a game. If you set out to make money, you are going to fail. If you set out thinking that you're too good for/unable to make Fifth gen console graphics, you will fail. If you want to go beyond that, right now we seem to be around 6th gen for solo devs as long as you have good stylization- with the caveat that both 5th and 6th generation tier graphics can make full use of the inbuilt modern graphic processing an effects to lean on. However the flip side of this is that if you want a good style in either of those you cannot use prefabs and store assets and must make them yourself, so boot up blender, pick your poison (Bevy, Unreal, Unity, engine autism) and get to work, anon.
>>498196827Pretty good ideas there.
>>498197969DO NOT STEAL THEM
I just used Suno AI to make some nice piano music for me :DIt's very nice and it's comfy :3I'll edit and loop'em when I have the chancevery cool!
>>498184089I need to make it off gamedev. I cannot handle a 5 day workweek with only 2 days off and the last day just feels anxiety inducing since I know what's upahead. I just have to make it off GAMEDEV!!!!!!!! But it's getting harder bros, I just want to make it or even make a living off gamedev, but the chances are terrible. Maybe if this was the early 2010's. Now I have to go harder than I'm capable of on my game to really lure in the crowd. That or make something very unique that actually stands out and isn't yet another unique game that gets ignored and flops.>>498189052I had something similar once in college, a Stacy bumped into me with her hips on purpose while we were chatting and she was being lightly flirty too. That also happened with a super busty Stacy back when I was in middle school. Brooooos I think I screwed up, my life could be so different had I just had the courage for the first one, fantastic legs, big breasts, beautiful face, nice hair. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
>>498197342>"Yes Hunter11, you lost! That means I get to take your Combusken"!>"I'm going to rename it "Egg Slave" and leave it in the daycare with my maxxed Scolipede for all eternity!"
>>498196914And yet recent indie hits are the likes of Undertale, Among Us, Vampire Survivors or Lethal Company, games you could probably shit out in a month and run on a toaster.
>>498197891All good points, but unfortunatelt they'll be wasted. The types of people who come here just to doompost/demoralize/engine war/etc. don't have games to work on and probably never will. All they want to do is discus "the industry" (of which they have zero understanding or experience in) and imagining themselves as the head of some bug successful studio. Hopefully someone reads your post who can actually get something out of it. Nice pic btw, saved.
>>498198247>I need to make it off gamedev.You and your kind is the reason /agdg/ went to shit
I'm in tremendous pain! I'm in tremendous pain! Help me! Help me! Help me!

>>498198519>t. neverdev who gave up before even trying because he knows he has no shot
honestly the most surprising thing is how much work you'd expect to be done on the cpu is actually being offloaded onto compute shaders in modern game engines

I know I've asked this before and I can guarantee you that I will ask again. But where do I find people (artists, game designers, etc) to build a team for my dream game?

>>498199729The best place is a game studio. The quality will be worse, but it's still possible to meet at universities and conventions. Anywhere else (like randos on the internet) is practically hopeless.
>>498199753>frankensteined together from 8 different tutorials you found online

I was originally going to release my game for the AGDG halloween jam. Well I accidentally finished the game sooner than I thought and I'd like to release it in the next day or two. Would I still be able to enter it or would that be considered shitty to do? Never published a game on itch before either, would I even be able to enter it if it was released previously? Thanks for any guidance.

>>498202406The game is fun, where's your fun game?
>To be safe, the fence value for a queue should never be allowed to decrease. If you are worried that the fence value will eventually overflow and reach 0 again, you must consider that a 64-bit unsigned integer value can have a maximum value of 2^64−1. If the command queue is signaled 100 times per frame and your game is rendering at an average of 300 FPS (the queue is signaled 30,000 times per second), the game could run for about 19.5 million years before the 64-bit fence value will overflow and wrap to 0.but my game needs to run for 19.6 million years

How would you handle combat in a King's Field like with wasd+mouse controls? I liked the slow paced combat they had but obviously having proper camera controls trivializes it. You could limit turning speed but that might feel jarring with the kbm controls. I'd like to find a way to have the slow and methodical combat without it being a total snoozefest.
>>498192942I'd play this but only if you don't turn it into pvp shit. Remove that part. Every game today tries to shove that shit in there and it ruins them all. Only 12 year olds want to run around killing people all day. Otherwise play a moba or fps shooter if you want to pvp.

i get it nowyou should always use a function to access variablesit's completely bad practice to just grab whatever variable you assume an object to have

>>498207012You're thinking of Project Landsword.

>>498208240>pointy enough?Hmmm, could be pointer. It's missing the stars too.
Here's a free idea because I can't/don't want to make it since I'm already working on an idea I like: "Naval" tower defense except you have to prevent enemy ships from coming into your harbor/invading through the use of an immobile concrete "battleship" while managing your food/ammo/crew between waves. Anything else is up to your imagination. Good luck, anon!

>>498205743
>>498209216>use a steel net>it destroys any and every ship that tries to come throughbut seriously why is it called a battleship if it can't even move
>>498209216Nice crabbing technique. Tower defense is a cursed genre and you know it. Stop trying to sabotage devs by leading them down this dark path.
>>498208964Concord looks nothing like that.

>>498209301Any compliments you get from this thread should be taken with a heap of salt. Nobody here has any taste.Also. Pic related, it's your game.
>>498209407Tower defense is only bad because people refuse to innovate. Look at how good Domekeeper is.
>>498208964>>498209418I mean literally using those style of graphics, 2D, for like a Marioesque hop-n-bop or something. Not just making the ugliest fucking Marvel-lite goyslop possible.
>>498209407...What? It seems like a geniunely interesting take on TD. What kinda schizo shit is this, anon?

How does your day looks like anons? Like how much hours do you allocate for gamedev?

>>498212274Nothing stopping you from writing a DX9 game right now, bro. In fact, the API is built right into the Windows SDK so it's easier than ever.
>>498212483Just make a setting and don't explain shit to the audience, that's it. Also add hot women or men.
Spent the day rewriting a bunch of things for vehicles and buildings to be able to rotate with the view's angle. No real gameplay use that I can think of, but might be cool to spin around during cutscenes or the level end.
>>498212593I posted a couple keys but nobody used them yet, feel free to grab one
>>498212483Convoluted but not very deep lore with a lot of ambiguity and simple themes to make retards feel like they're deep for examining it when you left it up to interpretation. Oh, and get lucky.
>>498211401>>498211470Thanks anons.>>498211614I knew I was forgetting something, fuck. Steam won't let me discount it until november now either, I hate this shitty platform sometimes.I'll be sending a lot of stuff to youtubers, yeah, I'll try making a press kit and sending it to journalists as well. I just set the price to be competitive with outer games in the genre. Will hopefully be out of EA in like 6 months or so, but it's hard to say. It's one of those "fixing bugs causes 2 more to appear" kinds of games.>>498211790I wish more people would give it a shot, but it's a hell of a lot better than nothing. Someone actually liked Jishogi so much that they emailed me and ended up doing the music on Shadowed pretty much for free, so something good came of it at least.>>498212593Tell your mom it has ninjas.
>>498212297olive oil has a very low smoking point,so it's pretty terrible to use for cooking. You'll burn it and most of the flavor by the point you get to fry or even saltée something. It's also very tasty, and you lose all the taste.

>>498212483Elden ring needs YouTube videos to explain its corny lore, the rest is designed to prey on teenagers and autistic young adults (the kind that gets brainrot and obsessively consume medias), it's the equivalent of clickbait
>>498212297The anon you're replying to is 100% South American. I didn't know this until recently but in South America they apparently have a seething hatred for olive oil solely because of how much the Spanish love it. It's literally just a racial inferiority complex that's caused them to remove olive oil from their diets to show how different they are from their colonizers. They deliberately use shittier oils (typical canola) instead of the healthiest oil known to man. It's bizarre, I thought my friend was trolling me when he told me but his mom backed him up.

>>498213436well, lucky for me it's about basic physics, nothing your nutritionist ex would know about.You see, you want to get the oil HOTTER in order to get a better maillard reaction, so it's crispier.If your fucking oil EVAPORATES before reaching temperature, while also burning, you'll have less oil and it won't transfer heat as good.Please watch ANY video by a chef on how to cook a fucking steak, for god's sake.

>>498213315Not the obvious troll you're replying to but butter has a lower smoke point than olive oil because the milk solid will begin to burn. It's why most recipes that are baked using butter call for clarified butter.

Pic related is from Virgil, Kansas, population 52 as of 2022. The nearest city is a 2 hour drive away.

Alright, got infinite terrain with a fully directional chunk trigger system operating on virtual chunk space coordinates. Have a full simulation layer now, finally decoupled from the renderer.The map being shown is not anywhere near the amount of chunks I want for render distance, or how I want them to load in / out. Going to be doing 49 chunks and loading outside of the view of the player at all times. This is just for demonstration.Next up is fix a few artifacts, do clipmap, expand the terrain to the full 49 chunks I want ( with LOD ), and then do lighting.Praise be to the King Jesus Christ.

>>498218548I've lived in all sorts of situations.One time, I was on a working holiday for a week. We all sleep in a single room with bunkbeds like it's a barracks, we all wake at the same time, each day a different pair cooks for everyone. There's a shopping trip once or twice a week. There's no internet, I don't remember there being any TV or anything like that. It's just us - some old people, some young people, one from the Netherlands, some local. Then we go out and we lay hedges, except for one day where we work with volunteers to weed out poisonous plants. You get to see some people walking their dogs and the rangers but there's not much else.It's not boring. It's not lonely. You can take time to yourself if you want it but everyone is all everyone has, it's not like college or a city where you can just sit in a corner and everyone will forget about you. You exist there whether you like it or not and people will look out for you. That's what it means to be a part of these small communities, it's the "real communism" that city-bound leftists could only dream of, sitting right under their noses this entire time. Remember the tales of "penny auctions" during the great depression where locals would band together to ensure nobody buys up land that the banks foreclosed on? That's what this is.You've got everything you need and working feels good. People pay just to experience this work for a week.I think I'm happier devving by myself but I've seen the appeal for myself.

>>498221440>camera stuttering for the fucking character controllerskill issue
>>498221615Nigger.
I think I have a problem. I think the current first section of the game introduces enemies too early, where there is suspense being made but can quickly go away quickly. I can't really change it's design, so should I make a new area to generate more suspense where they can see enemies but cannot interact with them?
>>498221860just add a quiet section in the middle of the game
>you get your weapons taken away from you and all you can do is runYay or nay?
>>498221763skin issue
>>498221951I guess I could do both. It is possible to hear an enemy extremely early on, and I do need to figure out the best way to make the player used to a certain normally before breaking it in subtle ways.

>>498229636just asked chatgpt if I should spawn a thread for every bullet in my touhou clone and it said that's a great idea and gave me a list of the benefits mulithreading can provide

>>498228740A post like this just makes me think of that one scene in The Shining: What do you want me to do about it? The gaming market isn't interested in another 2D/3D metroidvania title. Shocking. Truly.
I remember someone posting a video complaining about Godot's GI solutions, but I'm playing a UE5 game (Satisfactory: $100m+ revenue), and I'm seeing the exact same problems.
>>498230191are you sure you asked chatgpt? are you sure you didn't ask /agdg/?
>>498230191huh?>Spawning a thread for each bullet sounds like overkill. Threads are relatively heavy in terms of memory and system resources. For a bullet-hell game like Touhou, you’ll likely want to manage a large number of bullets efficiently. Instead, consider using a more efficient object pooling technique. Object pooling allows you to reuse objects that are no longer active, rather than creating and destroying them repeatedly. Here’s a rough outline:
>>498230414sounds like you're not using it right
>>498230191>he didn't pay for the o1>probably using 4o mini
>>498230695even gpt3 would say use object pooling.
>>498228215alice is kinda based, her character design really sticks out and i ended up making this, which basically ruins her character design completly, but big progress is being made with textures

>took so long nodeving about that there's been multiple games released in the unique art style I was going for>it is no longer unique and won't be as eye catchingI'm ngmi
>>498231402You shouldn't have to coax the AI into giving you the right answer, especially if we're talking about hypothetically trying to get reasonable answers to questions you don't know the answer to.
>>498230414All realtime GI I've seen suffers from the same delay problems that make it look really jank. Most of them also have really bad light bleed and other downsides.
>>498231543this happened to me. But I was yes deving the whole time albeit slowly. more setting than art style.
>>498231690>GI>delay problemssure you're not confusing GI with screen space shit, champ?
please make sure that your game isn't in a genre that's carried hard by music so you don't release without a cool soundtrack. Imagine playing castlevania without the catchy tunes and how bad that would be.
>>498231779we really gonna pretend like the music sold castlevania
>>498231821it was certainly part of the recipe
Can someone please tell me how this light flicker looks? I'm aiming for that retro vertex pseudo lighting, which actually just changed the underlying shading on geometry.Don't worry too much about the whole tower sections lighting up, that can be addressed later with subdivision. It's an absolute must that light rendering in Unity is set to 'Not Important'.https://youtu.be/qqzBm4RaJvY
>>498231779you're basically saying just make open world games seeing as it's the only genre with consistently bad OSTs
>>498231750Realtime GI tends to suffer from a delay in light propagation as you move the camera. It takes a moment for the GI calculation to catch up with the light bounces.
If one of the main mechanics of my game has you effectively bullying chibi scientists by picking them up and dropping them places as a big monster, would anyone think twice if all scientists were female? Or would it be fine?
>>498232042there are games people don't mind having their own music on though, you can be more lenient with those too.
>>498232065GI is global, it doesn't care about your camera, you're thinking screen space garbage where the lighting intensity changes as the camera moves to show more or less of the light source
>>498232235That's not what I mean. No matter how "global" it is, it's not rendering the light in the parts of the scene you're not looking at. Light bounces from outside the camera will affect the visuals in non-screenspace shit but it's still not calculating the lighting for stuff outside the camera. Once you move the camera it has to calculate that stuff.Global Illumination refers to the simulation of real lighting, not in the literal meaning of global. You can have screen space GI and it's still GI. It just comes with downsides like light that's outside the camera not affecting the scene and similarly reflections not reflecting stuff that's not being rendered in the camera.
>>498232065Basically, the problem I'm seeing is specifically if you look deep into a cave, you see light bleed through a terrain after some threshold. Also, I noticed that when you stand in the shadow of a large terrain feature, something changes with the directional lights to where it thinks you're inside a cave. There's a very stark light contrast within just a few steps of walking out from a large shadow.>>498232235GI is world space, but it does care about your camera location, because there's no way it can run for an entire open world without some kind of distance cutoff.
>>498232764>you see light bleed through a terrain after some thresholdThat's a common problem with many of the GI solutions.>There's a very stark light contrast within just a few steps of walking out from a large shadow.That sounds like a bug but it could also be an issue with their specific GI solution.
>>498231972looks fine to me, just slow it down
>>498232961>That sounds like a bug but it could also be an issue with their specific GI solution.I assume they're just firing a few raycasts up and if enough of them are occluded, they consider that you're in a "cave" environment and crossfade the directional light properties to that of a darker scene. Light isn't a mechanic in this game, so cave lighting is much brighter than a realistically lit cave.
>>498233272Oh okay, I had it at every 0.1 seconds but bumped it up to 0.25 in that clip. I'll change it back and take a look later with fresh eyes. Thanks anon.
>>498233696I'll change it to slower* (maybe 0.4-0.5 seconds)
>all my good ideas are for coop games>multiplayer code makes me wanna kmsAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
any guides on writing good documentation. my game has a lot of autism and i need it to be easy digest for normalbrains
>>498233938intuitive UI and a good help section with a list of topics goes a long way
Another janky thing I just noticed in Satisfactory: the occlusion culling is probably 1 frame delayed, so if you're rapidly occluding and unoccluding objects, the objects will flash in and out, such as in the case when climbing a hanging ladder while looking through the handrails.My point with bringing this and the GI thing up is that you don't need to fix every janky little thing in your game to have a great game. So long as you don't have severe game-breaking bugs, focus on adding content rather than trying to polish away these little things.
>>498234082thank you
do you think it's more interesting/better for a long, open-ended sandbox game to have>A: Less weapons but with more unique movesets that can be upgraded so that all weapons are "usable" even in endgameOr>B: More weapons but each weapon in a weapon category shares very similar movesets, though they have different effects and abilities sort of like terraria and get progressively "better" with lower tier gear being kind of unusable for the endgame
>>498234491i like B, but I also think A sucks, sorry.So long as you don't have disposable diablo MMO loot I think you're fine
>>498228740From the splash art I thought it was going to be a top down rpg like Omori but it's some lame platformer
>>498234491>Bloodborne or Elden Ring
>>498234491the fuck is a long, open-ended sandbox game
>>498234671Wtf?>>498234848Elden ring everything is still usable and upgradeable I'd say more Bloodborne or like wow or diablo or terraria, any RPG where shit just gets progressively better but you can't upgrade it
>>498235095Valheim, minecraft, terraria, uhhh... I can't think of anything else
I love you all so fucking much
There has never once been a single good weapon upgrade system and yes I am including Diablo-likes.
So, the ultimate goal is to make a 10/10 demo that will get your work some traffic, find enough people to make a team for the game, and then spend the next number of years working before returning here with an actual game release?
>>498235134I want to have, one of every weapon. And to select and pick ones I like more than others, because they look nice, and I don't care about stats.basically I'm motivated by horizontal progression.
>>498235437i just like make a game i want to play
>>498235437mine is footage > patreon > demo > crowdfunding > team > VA > trailer > marketing > ship
>>498235437Good point. But what does Japanese cartroons have to do with that?
Beasthunter saif is the best BB weapon
>>498235437My ultimate goal is to have a themepark dedicated to my games. anonland.
>>498230414skill issue (on your part)
>>498235729>he isn't gonna use his money to buy a satellite to spy on african warlords like George Clooney did
>>498235292I like when the weapon has a bunch of levels on one item, but it's more of a gacha trope? disgaea does it too.>piece of wood +3000
Please brain... stop being retarded for one second.. I'm tired of refactoring...
Yo wait, I got a baller idea. What if you make the base weapon really unique and then for each boss you kill or whatever progression thing you have you can throw it's soul into it and it gets a new appearance and some additional effect like a projectile or burning enemies, etc but retains the same moveset? How's that for progression?
>>>498232764>When you stand in the shadow of a large terrain feature, something changes with the directional lights to where it thinks you're inside a cave>There's a very stark light contrast within just a few steps of walking out from a large shadowSounds like the auto exposure at work. It's a skill issue on the devs part
>>498236135i think castlevania does that, I like it. But if you're gonna hand out new abilities from enemies just do the zelda thing where each skill is its own gadget.
>>498236135patenting this
>NUMBERS GET BIGGER ZAWOAWERUUUUU!Achievers against the wall
auto exposure postprocessing was a mistake
>>498236409Ok but where's the one that just wants to look really cool and feel like a badass

>>498236757>>498236674>>498236653>>498236354well if it worked for them in sure it'll work for me. just make a few cool base movesets for different weapon types and then adding cool effects that work for all those different weapons. I think it could be cool, although maybe it would make people stick to using the same weapon type and they might feel bored instead of having more variety.
>>498236409I enjoy all those things.
My game flopped, and only 7 people boughted it. It's still in Early Access so I guess I have to finish it, but otherwise it's over.
Just discovered that Path of Achra and Into the Necrovale devs were in cahoots the whole time.
>>498236409globohomo chart
>>498237441Doesn't work like that, when you have a game on steam it will automatically offer partnership deals, if both devs accept you get these packages.
Every time I read the word flop I think of Underspace. I think I'm obsessed too
>>498233821Just Make Something Unreal:)
>>498237929Underspace is a stunning success compared to my game.
>>498184762Bro what? My school mandated skirts on girls except for P.E. days. Is it that rare for schools to do that? Also I can guarantee you I can go out right now and walk across women in all kinds of skirts.PS: I'm from juan's homeland
>rust pops up out of nowhere not too long ago>"most loved language" apparently according to jewtubers>havent heard a single good thing about rust from a single person who actually writes code>glowniggers: "hey you should use rust!" Hmmmm how about no, how about because you asked me to ill never ever use rust, how about i install artix to get away from your system 32 honeypot too you worthless glownigger, how about i do everything in c and c++ because i can, and you shove your rust up your asshole and get tetanus from it. How about that?
I just finished watching this female game dev on YT. This bitch can fucking yap. Holy. I know I'm a hater but it's true.
>>498238045My school had a strict pants for everyone rule...
>>498238045In the US, my elementary school had a uniform and IIRC girls wore skirts, but my middle school and high school didn't have one, so girls almost exclusively wore pants.
>>498238316>t. me at work 3 nights ago
>>498184762I saw a cute girl wearing a summer dress the other day
>>498184762How often do you see prostitutes and strippers? Do you live right on the red light district?
>>498238430Dresses aren't skirts they do not count
>>498184762Anon... what fucking miserable country are you from? Are you ok?
>he doesn't wear a kilt and let his cock and balls hang free and feel the breeze
>>498184762doesn't your country have genz boss and a mini?
>>498184762I live in a liberal place where girls wear skirts so short they nearly flash you with every step. It's nice. Sorry for your loss.
>>498238823what does tranime have to do with it?
/agdg/ - whores gossip general
>>498238823you don't understand the female hivemind bro, women don't wear skirts anymore because they work like a council and if the council deems it bad to wear skirts then you'll get shamed and ostracized for wearing one.
>>498237441I heard achradev posted here once but I'm not sure if that's true. great game though
>>498217895How did my game /make it/!? It was supposed to flop!
>>498238985Tranime makes you obsessed with short skirts. It's unironically brainwashed zoomer girls to wear short skirts. So it's a win for us.
FINALLY broke 1300 wishlists! Time to release on steam soon.
>>498184762did your schools uniform for girls not have skirts?
>>498239326>Time to release on steam soon.please do....
>>498239326that's outstanding!
>>498239116He never posted his game mind you but when people started talking about his game at release, he came here and answered some question. I think someone here knows him and linked the thread, or it was from people clicking the URL from the thread and steam/itch showing where the visits came from.
>>498239326but waityour players won't be happy unless you implement a full base-building experienceyour game is blocky after all so the players expect to be able to make a house like animal crossing
>>498239326Going into spooky_3 and optimizing the floor tiles to be planes instead of blocks since theres too many lights on this level.
>>498240013>too many lightscould never be us Unreal 5.5 chads
>>498183525Would people play a scrimblo bimblo RPG?
>>498234491If I had to guess I'd say most people prefer B. Or at least that's what they're used to.If you go with B you gotta make sure you got enough variety and exciting things to find. One of the things I hated the most about Valheim was that there was so little loot to be found. There's only a couple somewhat special weapons and there's nothing special about how you get access to them. That along with the lack of variety in the content were the biggest downfalls of what could've been a 10/10 game.More recently I played Core Keeper and that had more interesting loot but the devs somehow managed to make the game into something that can be beaten in a session or two. If you're going for that Terraria style progression you gotta find ways to slow the player down without making it feel like a grind.
>literally no way to ever fix this manually without spending 3 days reading source code>chadGPT gives the magic words instantlyGlad I'm in the golden age of game development
>>498224484I too am a NEET and 4 hours or so seemed to be about my limit too. That's when I was trying harder as well. Right now just getting about 2 hours requires a lot of internal motivation/forcing myself to do it but it's a consistent 7 days a week so about 14 hours weekly. I wish I could get 8 hours average 5 days a week, that's enough that I wouldn't feel guilty taking the other 2 days off and just gaming. Not to mention at 8 hours I'd be progressing on my game much faster.
>>498235292Ragnarok Online card & weapon tier system was pretty cool. Lower tier weapons have less damage (obviously), more card slots and less bonus damage per upgrade but are easier to upgrade. As you go up in tier damage goes up, card slots go down and upgrading gets more difficult.Certain cards and card combinations were incredibly powerful so many builds would look for a middle ground where they'd have a decent bit of damage but still had 3 card slots to build a nice card combo (4 slots was max). People would make specific weapons to grind on certain types of mobs that were good xp at high levels.
>>498236861how do I runescapemax art for my game? it's garbage tier memepoly but somehow they made it grab people
>>498224484Are you able to be financially stable with what you make from your games? Are you completely on your own and paying your own way for everything?
>>498241267shitty pixelized filter on top of lowpoly
>>498241267Soul
I'm playing through my whole game and I'm finding all kinds of quality issues - especially with the art in CGs, and am wholesale replacing them. Like, this was your first introduction to Nyangela and she looked really hideous, and off-model in the old art, and I'd completely forgotten about this CG's importance in establishing her presence in the game.Inb4 soul vs soulless
Where do I get started if I want to make a blob / slime type of monster as a fully animated 3D model?
>>498236409I'm on the far right side for this graph but I don't like achievements. Unless this means personal achievements.
>>498241458blender. make a blob simulation, and then bake the simulation into an animation and export it.
>>498241267It's not just the art, it's the animations. always remember that you're up against entire teams of people working on projects for years with more experience than you do, if you're trying to recreate lowpoly from the past, not to mention you're also facing survivorship bias.
>>498241443haven't seen you in a whilehi
>>498241664Hey!
>>498241443assuming top is old...soul vs soulless.why can't she be ugly? Or at least not 2000s flash animation kawaii anime eyes.Old people are ugly
>>498235286Wtf why
>>498241947It's tonally incongruent with her character to look like the above - and more importantly she's off model with every other piece of art of her in the game in that picture
>>498241538Thanks.
uhhhhaahhh
>>498241267If Runescape was released today it would flop dude. It was fine for its time, and people play it now because the game has a history and had years of changes and content built over it, but making a singleplayer game with Runescape art won't gain you any extra sales. Gameplay would still have to carry big time.
>>498242293you're welcome
>>498242648you say that but there's still no good runescape clone so we can't really know
>>498242648>If Runescape was released today it would flop dude.browser-based ftp mmos are actually still in high demand, I could see it doing well based on its banger soundtrack alone.
>>498242648It would only flop because of how absurd the production cost would be. People would still play it, it just wouldn't dominate the internet.

How much memory does your game use (on idle)?
>>498246551because it just stops the feeling of being tired without actually fending off real exhaustion.
More fun to write basic game logic in C than combing through the godot docs. I guess thats the problem you run into when your project tries to cover everyones usecase. Wonder if drawing lines on the screen is as bad as people say though.
