>>498674651she was cute, I'm sorry it happened :(
>fantasy game features a race of small peopleLudo.
>>498674937A race of small people in my gmae look like pic rel. They're called Blemmies
>>498654568>he's more obsessed by it being a two man team of one man and one woman, iirc the man did the code>he doesn't realize this game has imho done poorly compared to its wishlist rankingAnon.....I think there's something more grim here than the fact a woman worked on this. Iirc they were in the top 30/50 most wishlisted games
>>498675031Not sure if armor makes a whole lot of sense anon
>>498675031only thing with this is, I'm tempted to say these are the Dwarves, but people may be ticked off about Dwarves not looking like their average Tolkien Dwarf, but instead looking like Pac-man.
does shartdew valley deserve 600k reviews just because it released in 2013? its a game that stole everything from harvest moon and is absolutely inoffensive and takes 0 risksface it: gamedev is not about "fairness", steal, cheat, lie everything is mean to the end
>>498669291I just ignore it and typically pronounce it "Go-dot" what are they going to do? Scream at me? These are the types that'd back off irl/would be too scared to say a word and even if they did they'd back down the moment I'd stand my ground.
>>498674651Always thought killing yourself required both being the most courageous and desperate at the same time. I've been desperate but never courageous enough to do it.
>>498675167I didn't draw it, just found it. Ofc I'd make the armor something else.
>>498674651>progressupdating graphics for the flak cannon, turned into upgrades for rockets too
say cozy games again i double dog dare ya
I am starting to be able to read code. I'm learning slowly, but just you wait, I'll be making posts about being a self taught programmer and calling for people to work on my dream game.All this started because some Japanese company (Aiming Inc; scumbags) decided to End of Service a game I loved.
>>498675272depends on who you are copying, could be like a few games in my genre who are outright copying someone and facing 0 consequences or you could be like that one mobile game that got sued for copying even though the art is it's own style. accidentally found the game on steam as well. turned me off from even considering their other games just knowing these guys got butthurt over having their gameplay copied all with a new art style and their own code.
>>498674651Who is that dude?
>>498675272i've realized i could've copied one of the games i've played. i extended development time just making it different to avoid getting sued and in the end it didn't matter. seems like it's easier to get away with when copying indie devs. also i was far more paranoid back then and fearful that it'd be easy to get sued for even the smallest of things.
>>498633174how much do you all think it costed to have his game reviewed? i kinda doubt it was done for free. wasn't marmo asked to pay or something with at least 1 youtuber he contacted? wonder how much that destroyed his view of his vtubers that are probably working under similar premises tho with some handler inbetween
>>498675272you snooze you lose
>>498675587wait, they're killing Caravan Stories?why?
ProgressI've been going through mocap libraries and services. Didn't want to buy a suit especially since most of them still require subscription. EasyMocap did okay, but Move One is better and doesn't require number of cameras which is a pro. Vid related is a good take, will show you a bad one in next post
>>498676195>10k subscribers$100 at most, probably $0 if they were a friend but it doesn't seem the channel is indie-focused
Progress, Unreal Engine 5
>>498676195I think it was simply a game that appealed to the youtuber in question
>NEET rich gamedev >almost dies from a heart attack due to stress
Convince me this is wrong
>>498676364Not enough revenue because the people who run the game are third rate developers who would rather have in-office pillow fights rather than seriously try to bolster their IP. Aiming is such a joke of a company.
>>498675801Her*. Developer of Mamoreal.
>be me>no dev>look for morrowind as inspiration for low/mid poly graphicsit's never been more over... i might not be able to make resident evil 3 psx style graphics, i mean i'm still having tank controls in my game because i like resident evil and it sounds easier to program, but idk bros, there might not even be a game
>>498675184Weird flesh golems made by wizards for manual labour
into necrovale dev im proud of you brotha keep on truckin
>>498676785nigga it looks like generic jap fantasy and i doubt the gameplay is much better
Another day, another inch forward.

>>498676413And the bad, no suit, one camera, acceptable results ASIDE OF FINGERS. Had to disable them because results were spooky.
>>498676785as far as i can tell they're only ending switch and ps4 version support and will continue to have the game available on mobile and pci might have missed something thoughi love the artstyle of caravan stories but i wanted to play gessy and got filtered by having to beat a different campaign first
>gamedev rival gave up on his game and project-hopped
It's kind of neat to spend days learning about historical warfare and then realize where all that shit I saw on a the lord of the rings movie.A lot of cool new ideas, like those towers they use in LoTR to use fire and smoke signals fast.Which are a reference to alfred the great invention to fight the vikings.
>>498677036retard
>gamedev rival didn't give up on his game and project-flopped
>>498676858it'd be cool to have partners in game dev who obsess over ideas with me on this gigantic game.I will do a general cool when I have more to show.
>>498677036https://youtu.be/AYEBM_nRs4U?si=V9KzIM7MvY288FHHHere's some gameplay. Let me know what you think.>>498677247They are also ending support in Japan. They are killing the game, so I decided to make my own version because this is one of the very few games that I've come across that I enjoyed.
>making a new prototype to learn more about a concept I want to add to my main project so when I go back it'll be much betteri swear i'm not flipflopping
>>498677180>high poly characters hidden under a filter>amateurish UI work>trailer doesn't show anythingWithout playing I'm gonna guess it's terrible.
>>498674651>Treat the world like your enemy and demand it kneels.>The world does not obey.>Kill yourself.>Waaa so tragic.Sounds like a self-solving problem.
>Submissions open from November 1st 2024 at 10:00 PM to November 4th 2024 at 10:00 PMWhat does 10:00 PM means? What time zone is it?
>>498677849brutalmy next project after amazoom is in the same thematic ballpark as caravan stories. high fantasy, occult themes, pokemon-mechanics but realtime combatmayhap when the time comes to begin that new project we will find each other again. i am sure i will be posting progress here when it happensin the meantime please accept this flooficorn sacrifice
>>4986767812024 was a lot better. The only shit part was the retarded russian game at the end
>>498678061It shows your local zone
how to make this level look interestingcause I create a bunch of assets but I don't know how to put them togetherwhat does this lack the most?
>>498678459soul
Duvet is on, yep, it's gaming timeGoing to spawn high poly objects until Godot crashes
>>498677180>tranime girl protagonist
>>498676781v3 was never the problemv wasit's like trying to make an empire out of a landfill
>>498678314Found you organizerfag. Think you can reply to yourself to make your shitfest seem desirable? I pray for the souls of any aggy members that join this.
>>498678459You need to create a flow, choke points into open areas
>>498678459>what does this lack the most?everything? it's just an open square with a couple props in it
How do I tell if my design goal is mathematically possible? Like everything is mathematially possible right, just might have to really fudge the numbers in every hole? Theoretically I might not even need math, I could just follow the logic and be like yeah, you satisfied the logic I was going for you won.
>>498678769>>498678885I wish I knew how to do thatthere is not a single video game that I can referenceI need a 3d modular environment
>>498678459copy a level you like from an existing game.If you find the process tedious and time consuming, build a level editor
>>498678440>It shows your local zoneWhy do people do that? Is it that hard to write the zone to be sure? And 10 minutes ago I went from 16 days to 15 days 23h59m... It looks like the time was in UTC+1, my local time is in UTC+2.2024 and people still fail to understand why time should always be with a timezone, except for communication restricted inside a time zone.Why? Are we that stupid? Is Idiocracy the truth and not fiction?
I have an amazing idea. If you pro it for me, I'll make you a grilled cheese (the good cheese, none of that kraft garbage).
my game deserved 100 positive reviews yet here we are
>>498679320>Is Idiocracy the truthyeskikes use the idiots to rule the world
>>498679592it's not our fault! the jews made us do it!keep telling yourself that
>>498678459There is not enough strategic 'impassable' ground. The enemy can attack that base from all angles , the only defense for that is a complete wall.Make some impassable terrain that creates chokepoints and other strategic points where you can push out from the base, fortify those points and create buffer zones.
>>498674937>the small race is small enough that I could use them as a flesh light one handedSo be it.
>>498678459copy paste the battlefield of historical battles.Then people will claim you're a genius for just copy pasting shit from history.
Dr. YesDev Or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love Asset Packs
how did you guys learn how shaders work? is it alot of math?
>>498679010Could you give us more context please.
>>498676413seems pretty good
>>498680080no thanks, I'd like my game to stand out just by someone looking at it.Like how you look at Minecraft and instantly know "Oh that's Minecraft."
>>498679807you'd be surprised how media brainwashed most people are
>>498675031Actually fucking SOVL. People would love this shit in a FromSoft game, and with good reason.
>>498679187>choke points into open areas>there is not a single video game that I can referenceLiterally just look at a star craft or star craft 2 level or map
>>498680153download material maker, and then it will click.
>>498680218okay cris
i can only read my own code
>>498680608thank you.Going to probably make them live in the Underdark and be some left over genetically engineered mining slave race from the precursors.God Bless
>>498681231I don't want to read other people's code because it's all fucking garbage.
>>498674651AND NOTHING OF VALUE WAS LOST LMAO
>>498675330saem, we are wired to be afraid. we didn't exits for most of the universe history and yet not existing seems so terrifying
>>498674651One day, he will be resurrected and renewed. With a right mind. The Lord will not cast off forever."And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven." ( Colossians 1:20 )
>>498681802evangelism is not game development
>>498675272>find underserved niche>make good game>get richEasy
halloween idea - you play as a scarecrow defending/managing a pumpking farmwhat could be the gameplay loop be like?
i (35) told mommy that ill be going to community college to become a game designer! i dream of making a game like hollow knight or ori and the blind forest!
what dev triggered this schizo
>>498682097>platformerum, yeahh no lmao
Hello thread! I wish you all a very good day!I read on a thread somewhere that this is a good thing!I just learned what a command thing is and I feel like other people would probably like to know about this!https://gameprogrammingpatterns.com/contents.htmlI get a very nice feeling when I look at my older code and go, "fug" because I now know better and whatnot so yay!ANYYYYWAYS!Have a good day and best of luck devs :D>>498678231So cool! I bet those fancy lil' particles are nice and threaded and laughing>>498678459Draw inspirations from games and GDC talks about designing compelling levels, things that struck me was power positions on certain COD maps that gave people vantage points, a general style or vibe or a period or era, or something new you can make yourself for and that influences it, Idk get creative and draw inspiration:D
>>498682097that's not a good idea, should just start making game. Boomers are impressed when college is mentioned but really if you're not going for STEM then don't bother. Especially don't bother if you don't want to wage. That's all college is, a social stamp for waging higher.Just make game.
>>498682250what should i do in the meantime to pay le bills?
>>498682303commission fiverr 3D artists to make rigged game models and then sell them on the Unity Asset Store.
are boomer shooters still popular?
>>498682437doom eternal likes are taking over
>>498682437If you got a nice style and good gameplay they will always sell
>>498678231oh, sorry, was I supposed to tell you the gameplay you posted looks good? It does but it's not really my style, you know? Nothing against it because your skills are way more than mine currently. Keep an eye out for my C# updates.
>>498681278The huge eyes would be conducive to seeing in the dark and apparently people like Arabs evolved large nasal bridges to protect their sinuses from desert sand. So his big nose would make sense too, with all the dust and shit down the mines.
>>498682437>trend chasingYou should make a millennial shooter. An half lifelike
idk if i should call out some devs but some of these games in nexfes are destined to flop. its sad because it looks like a passion project and they invested quite a bit into the art but no ones gonna play that shit
>>498682901a halo-life-like
>>498682960If they don't have the IQ to figure it out themselves, they're NGMI anyways.
>>498683048Now that's forward thinking
I'm going to have a brain blast any day now.
>>498682901i just like serious sam games with huge hordes of fast brainless enemies, but i think weapon and enemy variety is not enough to make it interesting anymore
>>498683248bio-halo-life
>>498682960over 90% of games on steam are going to flop there's no way around itdon't waste your time worrying over the failures of others
>>498682960Worry about your game not the other dev games. If they NGMI so be it, but don't waste energy on it.
>>498683350Add vehicles. Voila maximum novelty.
where da codelet artists be at?
What are some boilerplate systems that are used no matter what game you make? I'm currently in a mood to write some reusable scripts, so when I project hop again I already have the basics set up. I already have>music manager for transitioning between songs>SFX player system>settings for key rebinds, screen resolution, audio (will add more later)
>really don't want to make a 3D project yetIsn't there any 2D cute agdg girl I can use to make a small game? I want to get back to dev but I don't want to go back to the big 3D games yet.
>>498683696At my place, sucking my dick.
>>498676695i think most people watching this will end up going>woah he made $3m! it's worth the risk!how do we know it was stress related though, sometimes i doubt the knowledge of doctors considering how many times ive seen misdiagnoses.>cleanest captcha i've gotten in weeksnice
>>498683705Don't attach my wife Nene to such a nodev post
>>498683696mebut there's lots of tools for codelets now so I don't need a coder
Anyone here did a gamedev bootcamp before? I'm on my third day and starting to struggle, the worst part is if I get bad grades on the coming test I might end up losing my scholarship...
>>498684404>gamedev bootcampHahahahahah what kind of nigger get a gamedev bootcamp?Hhahahah
>>498684404how do i get in one sis

Though it does seem like it'd be easy to get them to give up.>>498682560Isn't that boomer shooter as well? I wasn't really a fan of boomer shooters outside triple A. I remember seeing one I was interested in that was indie but never bought it.
>>498683350make a game that you want to play then adjust it later
>>498676695ironically got heart attack from drinking a beeyah because he wanted to take a break
>>498682960I've considered doing this here on aggy daggy but I get the feeling some of the devs will turn around yelling "it's a hobby" as some sort of cope only to cry when it finally releases and flops. I wonder if there are any devs willing to ask for this kind of feedback>aggy frens!!! please tell me, do you think my game will make it? and before you say yes, make it status is 500+ reviews. do not say yes if you think it'll do worse.
>>498684692I don't facilitate bad decision, sorry.
>>498684692what are you struggling with
I don't like that Eric's wikipedia page is an xbox ad. Wearing this hat was a bad move
i made 12 crappy webms of progress starting from scratch would you guys hate me forever and ever if i posted them
>>498683350>but i think weapon and enemy variety is not enough to make it interesting anymorethis. that market is saturated imho though i had my fill with doom alone in terms of boomershooter/boomershooter-likes. unlike some anons saying 2 cakes, it doesn't always work that way. look at all those platformers, no thanks. the only recent ones i saw do well without it being backed by a huge popular publisher was some "obscure" platformer..........made by a semi popular youtuber. it is however close to similar to a type of platformer i'd like to make some day, but it's pixel-gold tier and iirc didn't even hit 1000 reviews. imagine he wasn't a youtuber, i doubt it'd be over 200 reviews at all. there's also the woke platformer that did well but marketing it as such is probably what helped it, remove that and just how well would it do, just plain marketing?
>>498685576just pick the best one(1)
>>498685576I post every little bit of progress
>>498685576There's nothing aggy hates more than people posting progress.

>>498687080A bootcamp is better than nothing. It won't land you a job, and it won't help you write professional quality code, but having an instructor and deadlines will at least get these NEETs off their asses and working instead of jerking off all day.

I think I'll make my menus 3D spaces.For example, joining a server would have you walk over to the controls of your vessel and chart a course. changing settings would be you going to a control panel wall in your ship.inspired by club penguin.

I want you to stop and think about this for a moment. You're scrolling through reddit and you see some rando posted this. In the comments there are 8 people congratulating him on his work. What is your honest assessment?
>>498696026>a "mid looking" game somehow still elicits such hostile catty back biting commentsI get that the bar here is really low but it really doesn't take much to set you girls off.
>>498696485I can't put myself in the shoes of someone who uses reddit.
>>498696625It's not the game itself. It's the jarring hollow replies to it

Protect awoken
>>498697612yeah and jews dominate media because they are masters of captivating audiencesc'mon now
It's fine. I'd probably make it black as every time I've seen this game it's had very bright environments, or put it in a whole separate frame than the game so it's not in the way, but it's functional and some effort has been made to lay it out properly.>>498696726>>498696927>nooo people aren't shitting on progress posts it's just like redditCalling everyone a nigger and telling them to kill themselves at every opportunity isn't some type of "authentic" 4chan culture, it's cancerous contrarian /v/ nodev tourist culture. However in your case it is warranted because you are in fact a nigger and should kill yourself because you're one of many reasons why this thread is shit and people hardly ever post progress anymore.

>>498696485Generally positive. Background of the GUI needs to be darker in the desert environment though.
it's so sad watching gullible sheep backwards rationalize how something has to be good quality because it's popular
I love your cute game, anon.
>>498698028my game's not cute, it edgy and cool
>popular thing is... LE BAD!
It's now pretty clear that 100% of all videogame directors, anime writers and manga artists never read a single history book and get their shit from the current season anime or popular movies and this decade games.
>>498698270>the good guys have won every timeIt's all fiction either way. History is fake and gay.
>>498696485I immediately transition without question
Is cris really on his historical arc? I'm not up to date on the cris lore. it's going so fast...
>>498698002It's so sad watching talentless retards have to invent esoteric definitions of 'quality' which conveniently never include any tangible outcome or metric like commercial success, all so they can continue with their delusions of grandure without ever having to achieve anything or risk failure. Sure anon your <10 review game was "good", it's just that the great unwashed masses couldn't appreciate your "genius".
>>498698429There's a diference in power of the story when is told by someone that actually read books from rea life and someone that just copy paste tropes from current season anime.
>>498698541I don't watch any media or news, or read any history. All my ideas come from my dreams
>>498696485Landsword is basically guaranteed to make it at this point. The rest of us just have to find ways to cope with that.
>>498695805>shit games are good actually>games with character and hard work poured into them are bad actuallyEveryone on /agdg/, (You) included, is a brain damaged contrarian and that's where it all starts and ends. Do you wanna hear some hard truths boyo?Bokube is a higher quality product than Landsword and looks better because it has tons more charm.Crumble is more fun than Landsword and it's not even a competition.Underspace deserves much more admiration as an artistic accomplishment because it's much more technically complex to be pulled off by a single person and has about 50 times the systems Landsword has.But you don't wanna hear that, because those developers/games are already burdened with the hivemind's evaluation and that's where you get your facts from. You can't see yourself actually acknowledging the accomplishments of the real best developers here because you're too caught up trying to be unique and edgy.I will keep defending the true heroes of /agdg/ until I'm an old fart. Fuck Project Landsword. The dev is a hack and the game has no future. I hope he kills himself.
>>498697145average agdg nodev:>browses r/indiegames>gets mad at seeing people there get replies>go to agdg thread>get mad at yesdevs getting (You)s>try to derail thread and claim anyone who likes a game is a shill>get called out for browsing reddit>back peddle and pretend not to be a redditor>meanwhile has no game and has not worked on anything for monthsi'd feel bad for you if you weren't bringing all of this on yourself

>>498698657your brain doesnt have enough information to compete with reading a course of biology or warfare history.>>498698803basedIsn't this the one about polish or croat history?
>>498698732I recognize your typing style, you're that same retard who was seething thread after thread about your game getting literally 0 downloads and 0 reviews on Itch.io. Your opinion is worth nothing.
>>498695805Confirmation bias? Never heard of that before.
>>498698887Slovakia
>>498698989can you name my game?
>>498698732>character and hard work poured into them are bad actuallyCharacter and hard work are not enough to make a game good. It's just how it is. This isn't intended as dig against anyone in particular. Its' just a fact of life we all have to face.Most of us here work very hard. We genuinely pour our hearts and souls into our game. But the sad thing is that it just isn't enough. And we can't do anything about that except cope.
>>498696485>redditi'd ignore all of them and judge it solely with my own view since i know how those people are. i remember one specific game that imo looked good, guy was probably nowhere near ready for release, yet they goaded him into releasing much sooner "id definitely buy it!" can't remember how many replies he got but i think it was more than the usual and yet iirc he didn't even get 20 reviewsi've seen this behavior on steam as well. some of you probably already heard the story i've told before about the guy who made a free game that got lots of reviews and someone said something about making a full paid version. iirc it got some traction "do it dev i'd buy it too!" not even 300 reviews. however he is a third worlder so that probably got him a decade plus worth of the median income in his country. but imagine being a first worlder getting all that interest only to get not even 1/20 the interest as the free version. i'd have been duped if i made a free game and got 5000+ reviews. that's like 1 years income for me, yet the gap between the free and paid version is about 2.5 years! my dream would be crushed on release, 2.5 years thinking i was finally gmi and then all of a sudden that dream come crashing and burning as i get a whopping year worth of income or so, and that's after a few years post release.
>>498699046I have no clue about this nation.sounds like a north balkan nation or estern german land.

>>498699141Work hard < Work smart < Work hard and smart
>>498698732I hope youre not the landsword dev shitting on himself right?
>>498699281<<<<<< work while hard
>>498695805by your own logic that would mean Landsword is NGMI, since everyone except me and one other anon is praising it all the time
>>498698732reminder this is who this crab really is
Does Itch do any validation of .exes to ensure people aren't upload malicious content?
Why are people shitting on Landsword?
>>498699607The people praising Landsword are genuine potential customers outside agdg. Only agdg hates it because they know Landsword will be successful.
>>498698732Anon just because you worked hard on your shit game doesn't make it good. You can be proud of your work while recognising that you have a long way to go. Take up pottery and your first pots are going to be complete ass, uneven with thumb prints in them, they have "character" but they are not well-made pots. Being scornful of any pot with smooth sides and symmetry, well-made functional pots, means you will never progress beyond the absolute base beginner amateur stage of your craft. Being incapable of growth or listening to feedback is, coincidentally a hallmark of all the devs you listed as "heroes".You are arrogant, mentally ill, bitter retard nodev and your perpetual mediocrity and failure is the punishment you deserve.
>>498699776That's all well and good but the fact is that my game exceeds Landsword in virtually every category.
I'm currently coping over my failure to make a good game by telling myself that after I ship it I can get started on a game that will actually be good.
>>498699698He is an artist and (you)slet codecels hate him
>red goat development general
>>498699921Shame that game only exists in your imagination

>>498700241>its a plataformer
>>498699939Serious question... Why do you continue working on a project you dont believe in? Sunk cost?
>>498697716I need to make a good mech game.
>>498700348so you can get good enough to properly deliver on a game that is good enough. doesn't make sense for every game or project still.
>>498700245its actually quite helpful if you ask the right questions and not waste peoples time
>>498700062>>498700226You wanna hear something funny? You still have no idea who I am. I am still a generally well-received participant of this community and my game has seen some admiration even after shitposting for years. And you still have no clue who I am. And you never will.
>>498700348To get the experience mostly. I've already shipped before on itch, the Play Store, and App Store (the reception on those platforms is why I already know the game is a guaranteed failure), but I still need to get experience shipping on Steam.
>>498698028thanks ^-^*pats head* *gives cookie*
>>498698270and they still make stuff better than anything you'll ever make. Strange!
>>498697679>>498700282dumb frogposters will never amount to anything
>>498700571>not waste peoples timeyou mean like Landshart does?
>>498700589That wasn't particularly funny.
>>498700245Because it is on an anonymous imageboard during a time of mass untreated mental illness and everyone has a smartphone, and it's about gamedev, a subject that attracts directionless failed manchildren, deluded talentless ideaguys, and people with severe behavioural problems and personality disorders. It only takes a handful of these people to fuck up a thread for everyone else and the jannies don't ban them
>>498700858It's funny to me
>>498700934I'm sure your game seems good to you as well.
>>498694683Many games can win on art few will win on gameplay, this is my cope. Of course I'm still trying to present a visually interesting game and I am looking at this to see if there is anything I can use
>>498700634Do you think if you just put a game on a platform that you'll automatically get traffic with no attempt at marketing it yourself?
>One post with a mere four (4) (You)s can cause a seething thread derailment this largejesus fucking christ
>>498700974It certainly seems good to DD playtesters
>>498677021thanks dude. I got a few new things im working on, keep an eye out
>>498701015There's a free shareware demo. What other marketing would I ever need?
>>498700035Man those smug green goats are annoying.
>>498701179Did you put it on a floppy and tape them to the the AOL free trials at Circuit City?
What ever happened to the "stop posting in this pedophile general, the pedophiles x, y, z, should kys" guy, huh?Why did he finally stop posting here?
>>498701458The methods of how free shareware demos are distributed may have changed, but free shareware demos are still the most effective way to get genuine customers.
>>498701179I dunno, engagement? Viral social media posts that you then leverage to get gaming media coverage which you then leverage to get youtuber/streamer coverage which you then leverage to get wishlists,which Steam uses to put your game on new and trending which then drives big sales and gets your game on the front page... Basically are people actually interested in your game? And what kind of average playtime does your demo have?
I sent a link of my demo to a girl on bumble that I was chatting with and getting along with. She ghosted me after playing the game.It's so over.
I will support Landsword because mecha games with environmental destruction are a niche I'm interested in.
>>498701684>Basically are people actually interested in your game?No>And what kind of average playtime does your demo have?No idea. I don't have access to stats like that. Play-testers seem to take about an hour though.
>>498701837Well that was an avoidable mistake but also that girl looks like she has a triple digit bodycount and retarded political opinions and probably isn't wife matetial
>>498701907Put a demo on steam and get some analytics, you want an average playtime of 25 mins at least.
>>498702012Doesn't mean I can't baste her insides.
>>498702156I'm still in the middle of setting up a Steam page unfortunately. It took me a while because I was hesitating a lot on whether or not to go through with it after flopping so hard on itch/Play/App but decided I might as well since the game is done and knowing how to ship on Steam might be useful later.
>>498702287You are as bad as her then, manwhore.
>>498702287Well you can't now because you showed her your game, I haven't even shown my wife my game.

Tower of Kalemonvo "Manticore" prerendered in Diablo 1 lighting and resolution & passed thru the original D1 palette for ToKdev.I only did the one "attack" in one direction to be quick (I haven't automated making gifs so they become annoying to post in 8-16 direction turnarounds)I think your materials are just a little complex for making sprites but the geometry is good. The original diablo monsters were almost entirely one color with some ribs or major features painted on. Also having some weird issues with my shadow catcher here, not sure why.

>>498702718He'll probably rename it, but he should probably do it soon as he's already building up a lot of momentum.
>>498655968>>498656038Not much of a game imho, looks more like one of those doo-hickeys you mess with for a bit before dropping and never touching again. However in terms of money it is a good success. ~$500k - $750k per person after taxes assuming it is just a two man team. The bigger problem here is that I wouldn't be surprised if both of these devs had jobs that paid $200k+ per year. For someone like me even just $500k means I'd trash my resume and I'm a first worlder. Opportunity cost, why slave for a decade in situation when I can comfortably gamedev even with the risk of it failing. These devs however are those types of first worlders that keep waging even after saving $1m dollars before 40 all while ignoring/not realizing they could retire and earn decent passive income. To them all they pulled of was about 3 years worth of income and iirc they both quit their jobs.For reasons I will not state this will probably be their last game if sales don't improve massively. It's a huge gamble after all, they pulled off a difficult task and made a lot of money but unlike the average 1st world person they have jobs that pay them that much over a few years without the same risks. Why take such a gamble again? Just a quick look through the data and it's development began approx 2021. 3 years. That's basically 250k at most per dev, per year of development. For a couple of people who likely had jobs paying them $200k+ a year that is a terrible return for the incurred risk.Now they have the important question, keep gamedevving or give up and return to the wagecage lest the employment gap become too wide. Sure they have a fanbase and made "a lot of money" but if that was enough to quit waging altogether, then why didn't they just wage another 3 years and retire if $750k is all it'd take? I'd put gamedev on pause if I was earning 250k yearly, would quit waging in about a decade beats gambling it on gamedev which these 2 were undoubtedly doing

>>498702951Here's the tail whip from the opposite angle cause I had it open anyway. Again the model is a bit too detailed for the 'style' of the originals but I still think it looks good. Wish you'd gone with this art style for peak d1 autism. For some reason I'm getting hit with 900 second waits to post so I'll take that as a sign to stop and be productive this evening.
will u play my game

>>498702951>>498705593An orblike in this style would be pretty cool yeah but it does need a good automated workflow for the creation of the sprite sheets. I tried doing it in Unity but I gave up because it was so much work.

>>498704638nta but true, every now and then I discover a game that's right up my ally>released 2019>released 2017>released 2021most of them seem to be 2018 or after. worst part being it's been so long and some of them are coop as well. they're probably dead by now so what's the point? not to mention i'm so mentally busy since i got into gamedev that i actually now have a sizeable backlog of games i haven't played. add on top that i don't really have anyone to play those coop ones with me. as for the singleplayer ones my mind bothers me "go work on your game, you want to be stuck waging into your 60's???" not the exact though but basically the main reasoning behind not being able to have fun with games or other stuff like i used to
>>498706183troonsword drones actually believe this
>>498704424>>498705040In my case It's the workplace that requires roblox programmers not unityUnity programmers gets actual job working on universities or game studios. Bottom feeders like me become coding tutors and gets paid $3 an hour. I'll do anything for money at this point
>>498705536I'm busy drawing game assetsprogress: here's a donut
>>498706180
>>498705881I can export to sheets for each direction of each animation just as D1 used, the issue of time is to make gifs to post on aggy daggy because I haven't automated that. So to make a gif I need to export as individual frames instead of a sheet then load them into aseprite as an animation and if I'm doing a turnaround of 8 directions splice together the 8 of them into one animation to then export it again from there as a gif.I agree a game like this would be kino, beyond my ability to code though.
is there room for a hitman-like with goofy graphics?
>>498706506your game used to be cool before you trooned out and kickstartered it and then spent the next year making a vampire shartvivors cloneCan't believe I used to root for your game in 2022 and saw you as the underdog who had the biggest potential in /agdg/. You're just a shitstain with no direction and no future.

>>498706669thats randomly rude
>>498705989it's so frustrating that the syntax for this has to be different then gdscript... it's not even a real shader language, so why make it different ?

>>498707000>>498706708>>498707119At the end, what show on the screen is just code saying pixel (153,145) show (145,784,659), shader are just manipulation of it.https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/Shaders.html
>>498707832If you rotate it, you'll see the hole. The hole just isn't that big on a lot of donuts because the pastry expanding and the icing creeping in narrows the gap.
I want to write a fantasy world inspired by real life civilizations in AoE2, but likely simplify the autismo into 10 major empires with each one being a regional kingdom.But the key diference is that the entire world are anime girls, and the monsters and villains are femalesBasically the only male is the MC of the story, which happens to be the reincarnation of the divine sun energy, a kind of divine mesias, which happens to spawn to basically clean the world, ciclycally from the acumulation of evil demonic forcesThis MC basically uses his big shota dick, to impregnate and purify the wombs of the female npcs, female heroines, queens and also the wombs of the demons and the gods of this worldBecause his goal is to replenish the mana of the genetics of the world, and his seed can actually purifiy and help recover the magic capabilities of the planet, similar to how spring usually begins a new cycle in the seasons of this planetIt's basically something like a cyclical harvest of his shota dick energy, what the girls and female monsters, feel atracted to him, as a way to being purifiedThere's also a sci fi type of Stargate SGI group that does some surveillance to the planet and works as a kind of UN peacekeepers, while they're treated as olympus gods by the normal populationThere's also a demonic force, which would be similar to new age reptilians and gray aliens, but simply green and grey and blue skin anime girls, who happen to spawn by the accumulation of evil human desires on the landThis is the source that creates the energy to spawn the anime monster girls of the world, which eventually make them develop an alien technology similar to many alien cilizations in sci fi.The goal then of the sun energy shota hero is to clean the world from the evil that accumulates on the world, by using his semen as a sacred tool to cleanse the wombs of the females and monster and demons of this world

>>498703079Then you're going to hate what I've got cooking.
>>498708648They're actually pretty terrible. It's all appearance but when it comes to the pastry, the pastry is mildly soggy at best and the whole thing tastes kinda plasticey. Sainsbury's does the best doughnuts in the world and you could buy 20 of them for the same price as 1 Dunkin Donuts donut. They don't look appealing or iconic in any way, so I'm not drawing those.

>>498708668i was pondering what game should i make for about a month while i was doing my chud side project. i finally decided what to do now and i WILL stop shitposting, pinky promise
>>498704514yea, what they probably mean is that it is saturated with shovelware.
>>498706620It's basically a top down grid based 2d game. You just rotate the grid 45 degrees for the display. I think making good procgen levels and enemy AI would be the hardest parts.

Alright maybe I can just think up cool and fun tactics then worry about balancing later.
>>498704514Valve decided that as a multibillion dollar corporation it was too hard to have content moderation (unless it arbitrarily offends the person who spends twenty seconds glancing at it) so now we have to be okay with the fact that steam lets every third world 'hustler' put up a hundred copies of baby's first unity project.
most games do not release on steam and are not even in a language you speak
>>498704514ok boomer
>>498709419Yeah, its pretty simple but I'm a certified codelet so I stick to importing my art assets into half baked prototypes.I need to find a collab partner who just wants to code modular systems and then do nothing else.

>>498710195our real worth as human beings is tied to our runecrafting level
>>498709882Shit like the google play store is worse by sheer numbers but the effect is the same - 99% of games are hidden under a mountain of garbage. Every indie dev is a temporarily embarrassed Notch though so if you speak out about it it -must- be because your game is bad because there's simply no other reason why you'd be against Steam being flooded with garbage asset flips and scams.

Where do I go to discuss character designs on 4chan?I mean, I just want to talk about these character designs.Left does well in Japan but here in America it seems to that we just don't like furry races being small. They need to be shoulder height to a man at least.
>>498710324so it's basically going to be like a tomagachi for my virtual assistant. I've already created a virtual assistant AI system that talks to me through discord and manages my smart home using home assistant, this is kinda just an interface for her. Similar to gatebox from a few years back.
>>498710893I mean, there are plenty of character designers here I guessthe design on the left is weird as fuck, the stubby legs don't appeal to our cavemen sensibilities for fat asses (African americans especially) and the face is just... it looks like the front of an American's truck, what can I say.
>>498710893just have both, make X animal race small and Y animal race big. Just make both fuckable.

>>498674651>progressimplemented water distortion
Just spent 2 hours trying to fix my unity webgl builds not building with no useful error.After deleting packages and other stuff that I thought could be the issue and changing settings I found somewhere that deleting the Library folder can fix issues. Did this and it was fixed.At least I took a copy of my project before all my fiddling so I could just revert back to that and delete Library.Always take a backup before doing wild changes to fix unknown issues.I guess this is a progress post...
how to fix this?
>>498711504was my exact inspiration>>498711519i'll probably release the source, but to have it fully setup will be so cumbersome. supporting paying customers would be hell so I probably would never sell it.
>>498711636good that you don't ignore the little things.

>>498711692Finally someone made 3D blue prints.
>>498711246You manage to break into steam's visibility algorithm? That's great man, you've achieved what used to be available for everyone before steam became a dump.
>>498711692what am I looking at
how do i make a sword slash attack only one enemy and still make it clear to the player which enemies they will hit when they do a sword slash?why would my player pick a bow in the beginning when a bow shoots only one arrow, but a sword can slash 10 enemies at once?i need some gameplay solution to this.i could make the sword auto attack automatically and it only hits the closest enemy, but that'd make it impossible to do aimed attacks too.
>>498711758No one was refuting those claims but thanks for providing proof I guess.
>>498711164>>498711187>>498711217>>498711724So I should tell the imaginary artist who works on my dream game's art that we need to make them tall and 20 year old looking. No pedo shit because the average enjoyer doesn't like beings that remind them of children.
>>498711879cris?

>>498711863In kcd your start the game unable to use a sword correctly, you swing it so badly you can barely hit a single guy.

>>4987120622D bullet hell kinda (not really an extreme bullet hell, but same combat kinda)
>>498712073Okay but Steam is Gabens creationso if they're not relying on Gabe, then they're not relying on Steam for marketing
>>498712153>kusoge cheated steam for free marketing.qrd
we got trays
>>498709707Its pretty nuts thinking about how something like "Day One Garry's Incident" was this legendarily bad game that marked a decline in steam's quality control but now 40-50 of games worse than it get released daily.
>Shader optimization when you don't need itCoding is a drug.
>>498711758holy shit is this real?
I am seeing a general trend of jobs slow getting offshored to India or Vietnam at the gamedev studio I work at, especially ever since american management got replaced by other managers in Asia.I have nothing against working with people from other countries, I welcome it, but the people the company is hiring are mostly burdens to projects. I know there are good offshore devs, but they often leave for better opportunities.I cannot see how the sad reality of hiring 4 times our workforce as offshore while still having to babysit them daily is even close to cost efficiency. By even mentionning it, you are almost told you are racist. What is up with that?Is anyone seeing similar changes in the companies they are working at?We already had a 2 month delay on our game's demo because of this.
>>498712508Nice rocket flame.
>>498712508prompt?
another episode of doomers finding reasons why they shouldn't be yesdevs instead of just quitting gamedev and finding a hobby they enjoy.sad that this is a chronic state of this thread now.guess some people never figure out their own psychology...
>>498711758why doesnt he fucking ship something?
>>498711893It depends on your audience's age rage, female/male and all that shit.
>>498712704I don't know.
>>498710623Or they call you a crab because you dare to suggest that the situation could be better.
when you dunno what to do with your game and how to improve it, you hit the exact point where you can actually improve yourself and your game. there's little real value in just making something that's easy to come up with.so don't quit there, instead take the challenge, cause you reached the critical point.that's where most people quit
>>498712371why are you using a series of posts in this thread as some kind of devlog montage to maximize (You)s. are you gay?
>>498712859Disliking the play store = disliking capitalism. Fuck commies.
I need a name for a tennis game
>>498712538Most companies are terribly managed but they don't care as long as the boat keeps floating. You're describing the widespread problem with HR that for some reason people don't want to deal with. 50 people doing the work of 10 will always be retarded even if you're working with people from your own town or outsourced forces. Like when it was found out that most people at twitter didn't do shit and only worked a couple hours a week.

only one way to yesdev and enjoy it. you have to enjoy small steps and small features. if you only care about revolutionary features you ngmi. also people dont like weird games anyways.
>>498716009you also got to be willing to look at an ugly game for a long time before it looks less ugly
my trillon dollar idea ... SUCKS!!
does affinity photo suck or am i just way too used to photoshop? in photoshop i find things so fast in affinity i even had to google how to make the background transparent lol
I have no idea why anyone would ever post their game here. Everyone I see that does it regularly ends up getting dumped on nonstop by worthless nodevs who will never amount to anything in their sad, pathetic lives. You do know that another's success won't affect your success, right? Humans suck.
>>498715596No, that's Japan. In America, it's explicitly illegal (obscenity law) and you have to pray to the 1st amendment to save you.
*saves deltarune from development hell*
>>498717047chad chin
>>498708901Yep.Good progress regardless.
>>498717047It's just regular hell now.
I give up on bothering with my game every single time because I have no good assets. Prototyping packs are lame. It's demotivating to see how awful it looks instead of having your final assets that represent your dream vision for it. I just want to code all the functionality and have someone else make it look pretty.
>>498718024gamedev is 90-90 rule90% making the game90% making the art
>>498709312That's simply bad code. Writing cryptic code with poor naming doesn't make you a good or smart coder.

>>498718395follow your passion
>>498717047lol that tobey loser is so obsessed with lgbt shit. literally picking this freak. imagine tobey got a sizably large team? wew i could see it going concord as the normal people get pushed out.
3rd person devs, do you draw the back view of your character design only, or all the angles?
>>498718245That naming is reasonable. I can figure out what it's doing at a glance. It just doesn't follow C++ STL conventions, and I'm not sure what the point of that is when std::atomic exists.
>>498718024I'm like that. I feel like a lot of people are. I'm not sure whether it means you should just be an artist instead, or to suck it up as a programmer long enough to be as experienced as a programmer as the artist you want to work with is experienced at art.

>>498718792It would take me 10 years of study and practice to be able to make any acceptable art. I don't have the time nor patience for that. I'm already on the older side. Fuck.
>>498718690to add, I draw everything from the angle it will mostly be seen in-game. I'm curious if other drawfriends do that or they have a different tactic.

>>498719518nta but if you're doing *anything* stem related you should be reading BOOKS and making projects. coursefagging is good if you're trying to gain competency but do your projects and book reading more.
>>498719140Just start making your game and learn as you go. Also, don't use Godot with C# or Godot period.
>>498719518the amish don't use blueprints and they've built dozens of barns
>>498719140This is very bad.I'd usually recommend C + Enginedev, but your list is such a waste of time that I want you to not just write off my post. So I'll tailor it toward C#.Here's a better list:C# https://www.w3schools.com/cs/index.phpDS and Algoshttps://www.w3schools.com/dsa/dsa_intro.phpThen start building and look up stuff as you go.That's it.
>>498719704Why are you against Godot?
>>498719518In no world will reading building codes get you to a level of competency where you can draw a reasonable blueprint. If you want to make a house, buy a blueprint drafted by an experienced architect. If you want to learn how to make your own blueprint, go apprentice and practice with an experienced architect.
>>498719704>Just start making your game and learn as you gothis is what separates neckbeard developers (good) from CS graduates (bad)

>>498720108post house
>>498719878Gdscript is trash and c# support is really buggy/lacking. I don't like how the entities are. I much prefer a pure entity component system such as like bevy has built in. The devs like Juan and that networking guy are very amateur and it shows. They have full control over it and won't merge in a lot of stuff. Big issues been sitting there for years. Some issues with a fix have been sitting there for a long time and they don't merge them in.
>>498720259because all you need is programming fundamentals and a general idea of efficiency. Anything beyond that is going to be domain and problem specific. You will be better off encountering problems and learning as you go than trying to prepare for every possible problem.You do that list, and you let your basic knowledge of algorithmic complexity + the profiler check your decisions.Also courses are just cash grabs. All is online for free. Especially with programming.
>>498720201if you can't add a feature to an existing game you're ngmi
>>498720141That only got reviews and sales because it has online. It'd sell nothing if it were strictly offline single player. Making online properly is beyond most of us here.
>>498719518You have to study AND do the thing you want to do at the same time. If you spend all your time trying to crunch all the information in your head, you'll be studying forever, all without getting anything done. It's like when people try ro make game design docs or lore all without a single line of code written, you're just wasting time.
>>498719369Depends on your standard of acceptable. If it's too high, then yeah you basically have to pick one skill and not do anything else for 10+ years.

>>498720259just follow the simpler list. I've been in tutorial limbo for years when I was a comp sci student. I only got anywhere when I got so sick of it that I started building game.My udemy is full of unfinished courses.
I was once a developer on a Fallout themed fork of Space Station 13, called Fallout 13.I fixed a bug where the scrap bench would allow people to dupe crafted items.It was a cool time. Just kino all around.
are midi soundfonts subject to copyright even if you don't redistribute them (i.e. you convert the midis to mp3)?
>can't purchase CSP in my countryif they sue me I'll tell them to eat a bag of dicks
>>498711863you have more variables to adjust to balance weapons>damage>attack speed>range>multistrike/projectile count>piercing for projectiles>damage split per target for area attacks (don't use it for all but rather make it a functionality of specific skills/attacks/weapons) >crit chance>crit damageand probably more that I'm not thinking of right now
>>498721575There's hundreds of good of CC0 soundfonts.
>>498721575Unless you make the next Undertale OST I doubt anyone would care enough to figure out what soundfont you used, and even if they did and you got sued the worst case scenario would be paying like a couple hundred bucks for the licensing fee.

>>498720453>>498721041I want to do it my way, guys. I'm a stubborn son of a bitch. I want to come into this general one day and know what I'm doing. Besides what if learning all this extra stuff in C# comes in handy in the future? I don't know how but you never know.>>498720393Is it really that bad? Hmm maybe I should skip Godot and transition to Unity...
>>498711863give the bow a nasty crit
>>498714796holy sloppa
>>498721804okay but I want the music to sound like a very specific old game that has the soundfont file on the cd but there's no copyright information or anything
>>498721914I don't want you to waste your time like I did.The greatest learning is going to come from experience.You just need to know some basics and how to move around in your programming environment.
Haven't opened my project in two weeks.Time to hop on the game dev grind again.

Some retarded Godot error plaguing me for 2 months turned out to be me doing something retarded in one line. I hate this stupid engine so damn much. I should have used Unity or Unreal instead.

Download Godot (or engine of choice)2. Follow a tutorial to make a game. Copy code and try to adjust it to make things work. (this is already surpassing 8. on your guide)3. eventually start a new project but this time you now know the basics of how to code shit from last week so you can be a bit more freestyle4. eventually start a new project a month later, but this time you don't even need a tutorial for the code5. now you can start making a real game for release6. when that's done you can now start making a game that might actually get some money7. become yesdevIf you've never coded before, gdscript is great, don't listen to the other anon, it's one of the best to start with and the people who hate it are baby ducked software engineers.
>>498724451That's what I did last week to get the EX version for cheap and without constant online activation. The only feature I miss from new versions is being able to liquify multiple layers at the same time.
>>498724451same
>>498726039Can't you just set the merge layer button to a hotkey and spam it? I have it set to / on the numpad section, along with - for exporting to .png and * for changing canvas size, page down to duplicate a layer and page up to use gaussian blur (I needed some of the last functions to fix up a line thickness mistake an artist made)

Which I know I don't. Let me spend months mastering C#, what's the harm in that?

>>498725447my virtual ai loli wife will soon be real
>>498726943>ngmi
>>498726626Yeah don’t listen to that guy just go whichever way you got motivation for. For most people it’s motivating going straight to an engine so there is a grey box on screen from day 1, but for others it can be different. Also I suspect many straight-to-engine people still wouldn’t be able to do software architecture on green field, after spending months in it. But it can help a lot to be able to just program some kind of system abstractly without engine tie-in, even when using an engine.

>>498726626personally, coming in with no coding experience, that's how it went for me. Except actually it was a step faster than that, I hit yesdev by step 6.so>This is assuming that I know what the fuck I'm doing. Which I know I don't. If you try doing gamedev you'll know where you stand and whether or not you need to do more.If you can stick to learning C then go for it but if you ever find you're struggling to put in effort then try just doing gamedev. The most important part of all of this is to just do what makes you work. Nothing matters if you don't work.
All my game ideas involve little girls.

There's no "AI" out there that can make animated 3D models. The best you'll do is generate some crappy textures for them.

>>498726039I don't really need the EX features so the PRO version is perfect and considering my budget, I can get the 3.0 version.
>>498728414Yes. Godot should magically put up guardrails against my own stupidity. It's a shit engine for not doing so.
>>498726947Oh, you meant liquify as in the liquify tool. Yeah I don't use that I use other tools like the mesh tool.
>ron_paul_happening.gifTHIS IS NOT A DRILLOpenAI's o1-preview just solved a bug that I would not have figured out. I dumped in 185 lines of complex-ish code, gave the error, alt-tabbed to agdg for a minute and when i came back it had solved it. I would only have solved this by brute force.

>>498721897There's no reason why a real developer would be happy about generative AI advancing. None. You would be advocating your own replacement.

I must be doing something wrong on why i spend most of my day either jacking off or scroll youtube right? Nothing excites me anymore. I can't make projects on my own and I'm always glued to tutorials after tutorials. Like, what's the point? I'm only lying to myself and potential employer. Okay, i can spend the day practicing leetcode, then what? I don't even want to apply for jobs anymore. I tell myself that I'm happier making games on unity but again, i can't make anything without looking at a tutorial. I just want to do something other than looking at porn and taking naps, and having hard time sleeping at night because things keeps piling up for the other day. I either do chores around the house or jack off to chatbots, that's it. I can't even make myself to draw some pixel art to supposedly try to relax. I don't exactly want a job. I just want to find an income and move out. I'm tired of being a pushover living with my family, I do errands for my younger siblings, or delivering messages between my divorced parents. isn't that fucking pathetic?
