Mmmm pebnis!Which games can giga fatasses make?>>521430707>sold to death out gemmed mirrored coalit's over
>>521430636ffmpeg is based but deleting those links is a big no no. There is at least one schizo anon, maybe two, that pretends to use those, and he won't be happy about what you did.
>>521430853Let me tell you why this is funny.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVPuA9ApiiYIt is an 8 year old video of me after buying 3 cases of crystal pepsi for $0.50 each from the convivence store just up the road from my house.
Oops forgot this. Reposting before I go to work. Give me criticism.On the programming side, I'm currently working with serialization.
Aggy... please stop doxxing yourself holy shit. I'm getting sick of it, this isn't fucking /soc/ially retarded.
>>521431510>implying that anyone here has anything to lose from a dox
more classroom wip, im pleased with how it's coming along.
>>521431131Did it taste good?8 years ago I was still in college and all I was drinking was energy drinksNow I'm an old man with back pain. Actually in the 23 years I existed I don't think I ever even had a crystal pepsi.
gamedev is just one mt everest after another
>>521430853>>521431131someone holding out on this waiting for a certain dev to show up malding the entire week he hasn't been here to post it just to have him respond with a wholesome explanation of the video the screenshot is from
>>521427035Any plan to add shooting at an angle?
>>521431810Yeah, it's why I bought 72 of them. I really liked it. It has more of a citrus cola flavor than just cola. It's like the chocolate orange equivalent of a regular pepsi.
>>521431974Fygoon is such an asshole he's going to bully a fat guy for liking pepsi?
>>521431901It do be like that.
I hate my life.
>>521430086handsome. moisturized. kino.
>>521432141Funniest part is that I'm not even fat anymore. \:PA lot can change in 8 years.
Sometimes my posts are so good I have to save them.
>>521431603wheres the game, friendlyfascist?
>>521431603Love yourself lolifren
>>521430565i like how cosmic construct devs progress post is an entire game
>>521431603
>>521432562That character has developed breastsGo ahead and explain to me what's wrong about wanting to marry a teenaged girl?Consent around the whole world is usually the later half of teenhood. Say you propose to a girl who is 16 and then when she is 20 you marry her and consummate.What is wrong with that?The appropriate age a woman should have children is in her 20s.Assuming you yourself were under 30 I see nothing wrong here.
Stop shitting on Branno. He deserves better
>>521429820The board link is missing.>>>/vg/agdg
What is the meaning of this painting?
>>521433742why would anyone need that? they're already in the thread.
>>521433742You're already on >>>/vg/agdgfucking retard
>>521428520whys there purple shit just instantly teleporting into the top of the screen
>>521434461I assume its because they set an image alpha to count down based on the time/frames from title launch and either set it to a static opacity, or didn't use the inverse of the countdown percentage to calculate their alpha value...But I'm not making their game so I don't know.
>>521431603cool striped banner
>There are people on this board for 5 years and still haven't released a game
>>521435057That's a banner?
how do i stop comparing myself to other devs and giving up because im not that good instead of just doing my own thing
>>521435096You can say BokuDev, it's okay
>>521435195I suffer from the same isuse Anon, you can still compare yourself the issue is you gotta stop giving up, least force yourself to do something Actually putting something out thats more than 10 minutes of slop already puts you above the top 60% of posters here
>>521435195Look at their old games.
>>521435096im gonna start it tomorrow i swear...
Is it official that you are required to sell your house in order to game dev?first sasquatch b, now thomas brush.... things are looking grim.
>>521435464More likely they can't afford the mortgage on a 5m dollar house
Reminder that you will be stuck with your MC for 10, fucking, years if you get anywhere.Are you really gonna stick with designs such as… Ayako for that long? You wouldn’t so character design needs to be right before you even start.

>>521435914Same, but for the name. And also your online handle. And your studio's name.
the only reason why im motivated to continue this project is because that one anon said that i never would. it's a small game that im not very stoked about but i need to get it done.

>>521437370This is AI generated.
Why aren't (You) making a incest rape game? It's the latest cheat code to going viral and have the entire world market your game no matter how shit it is.
>>521436426The 3rd best anon to ever exist has a sequel that’s even more successful than the first one.The only indies without a sequel are chuds who lose the IP rights and flops.
>>521437528this is pretty standard
https://youtu.be/-MH5OTWl3zA?si=zqqruJtYzsc4TPLH&t=354this is it bros. your game idea should be akin to legos, it all makes sense now. players want a sandbox to do stuff in, the less hardcoded events the better.
>>521437912sequels are fine.also RoR2 was junk compared to 1
>>521437840thanks gpt but gamers will just press "I accept" and won't read it and start playing

blackpill: your anime waifu wouldnt pick you if she had the choice
>>521438648Her father would pick me. That's what matters.
im about a week in and im already sick of this project, how do people make small games bros.
>>521438648She would play my game though
>>521438767If you don't get sick of your game at least 10 times, are you really devving?
I should not have a gf because I would probably beat her to death. That's just the kind of personality I have. It's too bad cause I love women, I think they're so cute and I want a family really badly. But I choose celibacy for mine and their own good. It's just better this way. Deep down I know I am just a monster in human's skin. Even though I have white skin the secret is that I'm not white, I'm a devil underneath.
>>521438228Just start your own chudcel Indie Game Studio and only hire fellow chudcels. There is literally nothing stopping you.
>>521438878what should i do?? i guess im making a game just to make it. it was fun for about a day but now im so sick of this. i need something to prove that im a gamedev tho.
>>521439118incelcore indie dev?
>>521438028according to you
>>521439118Chuds can't work together though. Look at Redot and see how fast that all fell apart.

>>521438341>>521438523are all boc posters the same person or are the alter boc all stalking the thread? I have the feeling that the boc society is just one particular anon, and then there are a few casual boc posters who occasionally boc-post to stir the pot, and i hope that is the case, but what if there is actually an entire group of devs who all boc avatar posting? and how would we be meant to tell which one is which true identity?>>521439118i imagined that hiring was not realistic and i would recommend co-operative like a secret online gang >>521431603how does her hair work? is it layered billboards or something? and are the black lines painted on the textures, or done by some kind of shader?this looks kind of okay, but, i think that there might be different lighting on the girl vs the environment/chairs like look at the back rests on the chairs and how they lighten and darken, then look at her skin and hair and how it is constant. once you realise that, it really makes her look like she is popping out of the environment. and personally i don't really like that unless it was a temporary selection highlight effect.

Working on an old strategy game again. No more side projects, I'm sure this time I'll finish it..
>>521440908wow this guy is a youtuber, the game screams youtuber dev vibes, with a dash of growlanser
post progress
>>521441816i outlined stuff
>>521441874okay now post it
>>521435830giwtwm
>>521440908get rid of the dithering meme with a top-down game like that
>>521440804The dev believed in this Green Girl a long time ago and was paid the price for that.No lessons were learned in this 2nd incarnation of his.
>>521441951here are some of the core mechanics that i will have in my game. the have descriptions within the tasks but i cant screenshot all of them at once.i'm going to make an SRPG with 3 dimensions of combat
>>521440123>did you play both?yeah. I have 80 hours in 1, and around 200 in 2. it's a good game, I'd probably have more hours on it if I played multiplayer (only owned it on ps4)
should i use the character controller class in unity for a physics based game? i started using it because it handles collisions for me but still lets me do custom movement code with move(). but the way unity handles collisions is annoying. should i just program it myself?
>>521442253I never dropped the green girl. Her brother is a playable character in Rolling Ball Game so she still like exists. I just chose not to use her in this one. If anything I think I still kinda like her more than Ayako lol. I drew pic related the other day.
I been going back to do an update to the first game I ever made, looking back this thing was put together with ducktape and spit
>>521442720use a kinematic controller or a floating rigidbody controller. floating is basically kinematic, except its set up to "float" above collisions, it's for a more springy or fluid feeling movement. Most kinematic controllers have the colliders make contact.it doesn't have to be kinematic, all that means is that it won't be affected by forces unless you tell it to be.It's not insanely different from the character controller and the move() methods, just the methods and implementations are different.
>>521442778put her in the game.i like her more than hypathia
>>521432568https://store.steampowered.com/app/2835890/SHIMAPANZER_STRIKE/>>521432627i do>>521432937thanks>>521439986i modelled the hair with splines that i use as a path to drive some very basic strand meshes i made. it's very convenient for iteration because it's nondestructive. the outlines are done by a sobel filter that reads normals and diffuse.and yeah she doesn't respect the lighting at all right now, the interior is done through lightmaps that I'm baking out in max because it gives me control of how they work, but obviously that's not applicable to a character mesh. a proper solution is probably going to require me to reprogram the engine further, but for now im planning to just do the classic light vector dot normal nonsense and get a simple vector from nearby light sources to read direction and colour.
>>521443603>The developers describe the content like this:>This game contains non-sexual nudityx to doubt
>>521443354thanks. my main character is on roller skates. sounds like floating is the better option?
>>521444130make it transcoded

>Weeb hair>Nah dude, this thing I like is based and nothing like anime
>>521445364in the west, the hime cut is either for art hoes or spazzy autism girls because of the symmetry.Though, semi-recently, it became a possible red flag for asian girls with BPD
>>52144536459 Weeb hair ideas - Pinterest
>>521443354Adding her as a guest character is definitely in consideration. I can't make any pormises though. I'm kinda done making characters for now after doing it back to back to back to back. Keep in mind I didn't know much about modeling characters before this. It's funny as there are dev lore reasons as to why Aurora and Ayako ended up becoming different characters. So yeah, we'll see how things go regarding that but I do like her still. :)
>>521445563Literal weeb dungeon in the game, complete with lanterns. mahjong tiles, and JP letters.Dev thought Japan was the coolest thing ever when he made this out-of-nowhere area.
>>521445876yeah, alice is loved by both sides of the world, but the hime cut itself is more than just japan, even if it's rooted there.also i never understood the weird anti-jap sentiment. You retards sound like boomers in the 80s seething at nintendo and sony

MY interest begins and ends with looking at Russia and Eastern European states through a magic telescope that filters out all of the bad stuff (hooliganism, Soviet war crimes, depressions, communism as a whole, etc.). I never, EVER, want to leave America and move there because that would be the stupidest move in existence.We are not the same.

https://pricklypeargames.itch.io/inochiculesPlay my game folks, it's so easy a mild could do it.
My issue with trees being culled too vigorously is still there, but the frame rate I'm seeing is extremely promising. This is while using Game Maker Studio 2's virtual machine instead of properly compiling the game as well. Using the YoYo Compiler, the frame rate is more than doubled. I have other ideas on how to optimize the graphics but I'll need to do more research for that.

>>521435195sort by new on itch and find someone worse
>>521448876wtf are you doing to have performance issues with a game like this? go into a profiler, there's probably something stupid happening in there that's going to help you a lot more than culling a few more random trees.
Games shouldn't try to emulate realism, they should be presentable to the PLAYER
threadly reminder that this hobby is on borrowed time. there's more and more devs and their games keep getting better, while AI is also breathing down everybody's neck.you better move fast.

just add horror, if you're making a puzzle game add horror for tension and emergency
>>521449791a blessing in disguise. games made chasing money will be a thing of the past. as long as you live in a nice country you wont starve
huh?
>>521449764I would hate to develop my game like that
>>521449791since there are more devs would that mean it's better to sell shovels instead?
>>521449131I am planning on starting to learn Unity soon, but I want to keep Moku on GMS2.>>521449667The big issue is how GMS2 handles draw events. Even if there's nothing actually been drawn in the draw event of an instance, it still takes cycle time. My big issues I've been working on have been foliage drawing not being buffered as best as it could, as well as foliage being drawn even if it's off screen while in multiplayer. But you're absolutely right about me needing to use the profiler more. That being said, last time I did nothing bigger than drawing being heavy stood out to me.
>>521450058if not starving is your bar of a life worth living then I guess you'll be happy>>521450228AI is a replacement for all tools including shovels.
im struggling to find reasons as to why anyone would even bother playing my game so im wrapping it up this week.
Alright, which one of you keeps giving my new email address to spam lists?

>Tanked my own reviews by adding force deleting saves if the player doesn't like my gameNo regrets. Game Dev is a give and take. You don't like me? I don't like you. Next build i'm adding straight fucking malware into my game if you don't like me
>>521451612This is why I never ran fygoon's demo (even though I downloaded it).
>>521451547no. it's a half measure. just pick a lane, action combat or turnbased.

>>521452296You can't tell because your IQ is lowI can tell because my IQ is high
spent an hour coding something AI can't code. but in the back of my mind I'm thinking, I could work on other parts of my game and give this problem to AI in 6 months.
>>521429820Working on what feels like some rather tedious code. The more complex and/or tedious, the lower my work ethic goes. This is hard! It's not that it's entirely complex but connecting so many things together is just exhausting. I must persevere. If I can just finish all this code one of my major designs is closer to complete.>>521452008Oh no no no no! Kek
game development was not supposed to be this hard wtf
>>521430086Sorry chud, game dev is for the girlies now.
i feel like banquet of fools would've done better if the characters were cuter and had more customization.
>>521452694Your work ethic going down too when the task is harder? Is that you Maid Cafe anon? You and I, I think we both suck at it despite having gmi games
how many people in these threads actually try to develop games?
>>521449791Yeah....yeah :(>>521453208Or a portal going back 15 years opened up and you threw the devs in with their game.>>521450175Same, feels like such a large hassle
>>521431131>AI retard is also a fatass who has done nothing in 8 yearsAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHA, the jokes write themselves
>>521452694Yes it's hard, but it's also fun! Just think about how good it feels to solve a difficult problem or finish a complex system.
>>521453054Good point, guess I'll just quit and work in a coal mine.
>>521453245A lot. 61 games were submitted to AGDG's previous demo day. We've had as many as over 100 games at previous demo days too.
>>521453245i'll submit mine soon but i wont share it here because of doxxing
>>521453245just about everyone. these threads had ~100 ips back when it was tracked and that's roughly the number of demo day submissions that were happening around that time
>>521453245some, i won't share my game here anymore or else im ngmi
>>521438228>all femalesI really, really wish the internet social media platforms were banned permanently. There are three major benefits to this.1. Gamedev becomes less and less popular = easier time to succeed>The types doing it for online fame leave, without a crowd feeding the egos of various gamedev and gamedev adjacent youtubers the dopamine would quickly run out, who would people like YagmanX, Acerola, BlackThornProd, etc. get their attention from? Suddenly they don't care anymore.2. Getting a gf unironically becomes easier as women's ego's are forced back down.3. Vocal woke minority disappears since they no longer have an environment where they appear larger then they really are kek.Bonus, calling yourself a gamedev might sound much better now then before, due to info surrounding it becoming shrouded again now that those youtubers are blasting out videos that make it look lillke some easy task.

>>521454526Let's face it most of aggy is younger than 30 and global war will happening within 10 years.There's no point in succeeding because we'll all die in stupid jewish wars.Game dev and maybe even this world was always for women to inherit as much as I hate to admit it.We live in the failure of society, a lastman society. One were the warriors are fool and the leaders are weak cowards.It's interesting though. Tolkien wrote lord of the rings in his 40s he witness two global wars and fought in the first one. I wonder what I will make if I survive the bloodshed.Anyways, I hope that besides just creativity maxxing you're also warrior maxxing aggy, I'd hate to see you dumbasses die in the first week.I've completely given up on the idea of ever having a wife and am content with the fact that I will simply just die in a stupid battle. Kind of ridiculous I know my own death and see it, yet I don't live each day with meaning.

Are you guys writing clean code?
ive been binging these while working on this shitty small game. he said you need to be wierd, thats your advantage of being solo.
Ask yourself these questions>Can AI code as well or better than you?>Can AI write as well or better than you?>Can AI make art as well or better than you?>Can AI come up with the idea for your game?You don't have to tell us the answers. But if they're>Yes>Yes>Yesand>Yesthen you need to ask yourself what's even the point of you making a game?

>>521452694game development wasn't supposed to be for 1 person but we all memed each other into thinking it is
>>521448876What the fuck are you doing to tank your framerate so badly? Are you rendering an entire map at once?
>>521449791Don't worry bros I've been assured that all the big indie devs, that totally care about games as an art and weren't just in it for the money, will speak out about the death of game development and get valve to quarantine AI games in two weeks

>>521457227Notch got on his soap box to preach about how you're not a real game dev if you don't make your own engine but he says nothing about people using AI.

should I have debugging features in a seperate scene or just have in the player's scene but as a toggleable feature?
>>521460295Haha, what a funny cat! Do you have any more pictures like this?
should I rig the first run every player does of my roguelite so I know its an interesting one
>>521460512maybe
>>521460570no, because every single remaining rougesloppa player is a giga autist who watches about 100 streamers and youtubers and is part of a hivemind with all other rougelite/ke players- they'll figure out the first run is "fake" and then not play it.If they didn't do that it'd be a fine idea.
>>521460570>>521460778worked for inscryption
>>521461227not a true rougelike (lol) and attracted a mainstream audience.
>>521460778that's a good point
Protip: the _Input method in Godot does not work correctly with analog sticks. It's also shit for action gameplay, so it's only good for menu/misc actions (that don't use the analog stick). What the engine expects you to do is to check for action gameplay inputs in the _Process function, and use the built-in button focus system for menu navigation. Anything else means you're using the engine wrong and it will break on you. Ignore the docs telling you to use _Input/_UnhandledInput. They are lying.
>>521460003This is the worst this model will ever be. It's only going to get better>>521459770This makes me happy. Really good human artists won't be impacted, but the rest of programmer-artists can get better assets when it irons out its kinks
>>521459770how does it do when you want an OC? It's good when you want it to generate popular anime girls with hundreds of thousands of on-model images in the training data, but I'm willing to bet it'll shit itself if you want it to animate anything else.
>>521461362godot 5 will fix that
>>521461362Use Redot instead, it fixes stupid bugs like that. The Redot team actually care about making a good engine unlike Juan.
>name my roguelike "My first Roguelike">players complain it's not like their favorite roguelikereal in my head
ive been looking at shapes this past week for this project, the burnout is real and i get no dopamine
Another Godot tip: avoid using SubViewports. They are glitched and broken on Linux and will only cause headaches. The more esoteric/complex the feature you want to include in your game, the less you should use Godot. Those features are usually broken.
>>521461657>Use Redot instead, it fixes stupid bugs like that. The Redot team actually care about making a good engine unlike Juan.
>>521461362You're generally not supposed to use events for analog inputs, or anything else that has the potential to fire every frame.
Godot tip: don't use Godot, use a real engine like Redot, Blazium or Lolidot.
>>521461657Protip: this guy is lying. Godot will remain the best beginner engine for the foreseeable future. Once it overtakes Unity's market share we might see good forks come out.
>>521461795How are they broken on Linux? I use SubViewports all the time.>>521461362>does not work the way you, a noobie programmer, expected>does not work correctlyThese are not the same things.
>>521460778>>521461356if his game is played by a bunch of streamers, it already made it.>>521460570make a list of experiences you want each player to have, then incorporate them into whatever procgen algorithm you're using. like if you want the first-time player to get a puzzle that when solved gives them a valuable item, have several types of puzzles and vary the reward items.but really who cares, no streamer of note will ever play your shit game so you're like an uber driver worrying about the capital gains tax
>name my engine "My first Engine">users complain that it's not their favorite enginereal in my Argentina
>>521462118I did some complex shader shit using subviewports, which worked on windows but crashed on Linux. Y-sort is also glitched when using them.

>>521463294yea that should've been my future wife or some locals, he colonized them.
There was a post before saying that you can only make it if you're white and put in effort. At first I was motivated to prove him wrong then I got demoralized by it, the game was rigged from the start.https://www.youtube.com/shorts/XomhPdE2Ux4Look at Asian Marnix is waiting tables at LaHuca Burger while White Marnix gets to be a ceo at his own gamedev studio while sexpatting through east asian countries railing his cousins.Really makes you think how easy whites have it compared to asians when it comes to living,laughing, and loving especially loving we all know about wmaf.

Works on my machine.
>>521461362>>521470627Just wait till you figure out that signals are fucking useless thereby rendering godots core design philosophy irrelevant.
>>521470951How exactly are signals useless? I swear people just rattle off shit but most likely are just retarded kids.
My game takes place in only one scene like an arcade game. Is it worth making a debug scene which is the exact same thing but with more testing features or should I just incorporate it into the level manager script?What about making a level loader script? So DebugLoader and GameLoader for regular players?
redpill me on itchis it a good idea to upload your game there and use it as a devlog or is it better to upload it when it's 80-90% complete? Will itch push it to "most recent" if you make updates?
>>521471484i remember there being an option to overwrite your current version with ease
>>521471484landsword got so big that the itch twitter account started shilling for him for free.it's always useful to have something to link to people when they want to try out your game

>>521471686its getting a bit overloaded
I'm starting my game dev journey today!!
>>521470096hammer. spanner is for repair.
>>521470398why's this bitch got de_ancient behind her
>>521471103>How exactly are signals useless?Godot sells signals as 'you shout into a void and anyone that cares to listen hears you'. In reality signals are you shouting into a can tied with a string to a bunch of other cans and you have to make sure you tie the strings before you shout. This is completely ass backwards in an engine and language that allows direct access between any class or function to ANY member in any other class or function. There is no such thing as private in godot. The retarded example godot devs give of how to use signals is: an enemy collides with your player, you get the collider info and get the parent which is the player and then connect a signal between the enemy and the player to call a damage function in the player. This is retarded because if you know the ID of the player then you can directly call the damage function from the enemy class. Oh and don't forget that signals are only one way, if you want to relay any information back from the player to the enemy then you have to call a function in the player script to setup a second signal. And then you have to remember to dispose of the signal connections properly before you free the enemy or player scripts.You point out this retarded shit and anyone that has spent any amount of time working with the engine will admit that they use a signal manager singleton where scripts blindly subscribe to one half of a signal and depend on the signal manager to know who to relay the other half of the signal to because scripts don't know the ID of the script they're trying to signal to ahead of time.
It's sad that marmo no longer posts on this thread. Apologize for not buying his game.
>>521463294what's the source?
>>521473049you don't have to do any of that, aside from connecting the area_entered signal to a function in an abstract class that both a node under the player and one under the enemy inherit from, this class' methods will automatically handle reducing the hitpoints of whoever got hit with a simple subtraction, then the death animation and freeing when the hitpoints <=0, you don't have to call any more signals, are you fucking stupid? How could you type so much fucking drivel?
>>521473049So because you don't understand how to use signals you think they are bad? Got it. What a fucking retard.
>>521471479testing and debug features are pretty much always worth it

I'm becoming more and more convinced gamers are unironically a bunch of troglodytes. They go on the internet and make fun of modern games having player assist mechanics that always keep telling you what you need to do in every moment and they shit on journalists every chance they get but these people haven't touched a real game from the Y2K era in literal decades and you can tell. The moment you treat them like adults they start whining there's no constant guidance and telling them where to go. What the fuck is wrong with you people
>>521482842I guess a X'd house could work then

I don't know what to dev so I am learning how to draw.
>>521483952maybe a game?
Cris, is Fygoon, is YTC, is me.
any game whose last word is "Simulator" has a 99% chance of being absolute trash
another day another prototype to abandon wanted to experiment with pre-rendered 3d models into directional sprites like in prodeusbut in that game the sprites are rendered at runtime so the lighting info is correctalthough I have a normal map spritesheet as well, it is still a quad mesh so depending on the direction of the light source it might look good enough or complete trash.
>>521483952Learning to draw is pointless with AI
>>521483952it's better to learn to draw than to learn to dev. you cant make a game without art.

i want to collab on a game, but not with tranime faggots from the pedocord. also i require 100% creative control and game director authority
>>521484147I would render them unlit and just pass in the ambient light color + light color of nearby lightsMaybe use fresnel so you can take advantage of the normal map in some wayTrying to do realistic lighting with something that doesn't exist in reality is just asking for a bad time

Honestly though, it does feel like we're entering another indie golden age, if not silver age at least. Shorter story based games are doing great again, the need for actual creativity is higher than ever, and it's clear you don't need a publisher to succeed. If you aren't already halfway developing your game, you might miss the train, that would be a shame, right?

>>521487450not sure in unreal what are the equivalent functions, but for prodeus (unity) I think its also called render texturefrom what I could find, they have the models somewhere else in the level and build an atlas at runtime as neededthen just sample from said atlas unto a quadnot sure if they render the models with a fixed background color and then filter the color out to get transparency, or simply have a dedicated render layer for these modelsand I don't know if they render the normal maps into a sprite atlas as well or somehow replicate the light conditions in their atlas build space, the latter seems crazy tho

>>521493659Can i work with you?
In 2025 and beyond, a random game's chances of getting over 1000 reviews will be under 2%, because there will be around 450 of those games.From that number, subtract games from studios and publishers that are going to hit 1000 reviews no matter what because of marketing. How many games does that leave and what are the chances of your game being among them?No need to actually reply, just think about it.
>>521496428yes
>>521496990My game is actually good and appealing though
>>521496118I implemented my game's save system in the first 72 hours of development. I made two versions, binary for release and the json for testing. It was super useful to be able to create any kind of save condition by editing the save file in a text editor.
>>521496428Ye much better pixel work. More clear detail in the same amount of space.

>>521498082agdg yoghurt pot string communications network(pls someone draw this)>>521498965You almost certainly want to learn specifically how to do object-oriented programming for game development - so start by following a 'basic object oriented programming' course or something online.Make sure you do practical exercises like making little toy programs because it's the only way to really make sure you're understanding stuff.After you finish / get bored of that - pick an engine or library or whatever takes your interest and try and do something with it and you'll quickly pick up stuff as you figure it out .Don't let anons try to tell you which one to use because you're not obligated to stick to any one engine / framework - and no matter what you do it's all valuable experience even if you don't stick with itt. software engineer

>>521500707ye
>>521498965>>521498965mess around with it. watch tutorials that cover the fundamentals, then get a physical book about the language you're learning, and try to build stuff.Only refer to the book. If you can't find or afford a physical copy, find a free pdf of it online. Alternatively, keep the documentation and scripting API for whatever engine you're using handy.If you're trying to build something, do it with the above method (mess around, read through the book/docs when you get stuck) until you hit a point where you can no longer progress.Then, find a couple tutorial videos or articles that cover that thing.Don't follow the tutorial verbatim, just see what they're doing differently from you. If they use any methods you're unfamiliar with, then research that.Also, learn the commonly used programming patterns for games. Things like factory pattern, flyweight, observer, etc.Patterns are good, and they don't care what language you're using. It's basically the logical structure for solving specific problems. If you know some of them, it'll speed up everything because you won't have to think as much. Just: run into problem, find a way to explain the problem, decide which pattern best fits that problem, then apply that pattern in your game.

>>521501124I kind of disagree with the pattern-based approach, because I think it can lead to trying to fit square pegs into round holes sometimes (at work, there are so many unnecessary factories in our codebase ... )Having a clear cut inheritance or interface structure is good though, which the right pattern can give you if you use it appropriately

>>521510563Ironically, I already gave up on the ARPG. My current project is much better.

Marketing? Oh, you mean humiliating myself for a chance of attention? So basically the same thing as posting here?
>>521514353which one? DON'T FUCKING DARE PUSSY OUT
>>521463178>>521495128Heh. I will not lie. Berserk is the reason why Smellzor is in the game.
>>521514510Marketing is only a HR if you make it one, or your game is bad enough
>>521513454AI has done the impossible and actually made something appealing out of that shit character design. well done
>>521514510posting here is negative marketing
>>521514510are you not proud of your game?
>>521514783I'm starting to realize that.
>>521514353Same...
>>521515000I'm starting to think I don't want to be an "agdg game".
You're saying marketing but what you mean is promotion.Marketing starts at choosing what kind of game you want to make based on estimated market performance.
>>521515000>>521515064I really should not be here.

>>521523332

Where is your kino devlog, agdg?

>>521525446I only sort of have one.
>>521525446that guy really shows that just because you want to make games, doesn't mean you should.Utterly devoid of anything appealing
Genius lifehack: if you want to get views on your shitty devlogs, post them here and write a somewhat sardonic caption and anons will be forced to watch them to try and get their cringe fix.
>Thread deleted again
Where'd Flygoon's thread go? It seems to be disappeared lol. Lmfao. Idiot can't even make a thread without screwing up.
