Where's the Jas cosplayer?
...
I love to make games. It feeds my soul
>>537424057damn bro mirin dat vascularity
>>537424319Just being realistic with what I type of game I can finish while waging. I'll keep working on my dream, but I'll be 60 before that's done.
yeah i have already given up on my project after starting it a few hours ago
>>537424057Same chick and same ape last year
>>537424641holy shit she aged like 30 years
I still remember telling agdg in 2018 to make games for girls.
>>537424787What? She looks way better without the horrendous purple wig
>>537424787Many such cases!
>>537424057I gotta say, following nortubel on X is not for people of faint heart, this is the least offensive stuff on his timeline, usually it's filled with much harder fetishes, futa included
>>537425196portugal caralho!
>>537425196my twitter feed looks way worse
Nobody knows about my secret project yet!
Why the fuck is this the Stardew valley general?
My game is a full-on, unapologetic Deus Ex clone.
>>537425667can you get super strength and throw environmental objects around into enemies?
>>537425667Join us
>>537425667Your game is only real in your mind.
>>537425196>nortubel is portuguesei am ashamed of my shithole country, again
make game about bort simpson
>>537426307whats the max payne copy supposed to be ive never seen oen
>>537424641great wall of china
>>537425620Stardew is an indie game and its developer is often cited as an inspiration for aspiring devsHere's him sharing some wisdom with high schoolers:https://youtu.be/VreafOS-8A0?si=85yWQztCqwAS4S79>>537426971
>>537427363cavanaugh was my sempai when I started
>>537408780Anon’s Big Day update: I found Bocchi figures at the comic store and thought of my friends from /agdg/ :)They were a bit expensive for how small they are so I didn’t get one. Now I’m going to go get a donut!
it's fully fucking over boyos
>>537427564My best friend was from Pakistan and she even got me a anime figure you guys haven't gave me anything and your not even terrorists
>>537424057That man has a hundred million dollars.
>>537427863*300 million
There is something metaphysically evil about agdg. They will ALWAYS take every single chance life throws at them to disbelief and criticize developers that they believe are unserious and not committedbut does that mean that they encourage the opposite? No, you will NEVER see them or hear them encourage any developer that is doing an amazing job or has done an amazing job and has produced one of these games that they consider impossible. Has the naysayer ever knelt and apologized to Peripeteia? To Underspace? No? I didn't think so. Your existence is MEANINGLESS.

@InnerCircle
>>537426307All of these games sold more than yours did, doe.
>>537428804They're all gone, Anon. I don't think any of them posted here at all this year
>>537426398I will facefuck and kill you, bitch.
i was never invited to the inner circle, even though my game sold over one thousand copies
>>537427963Fuck off, Shodanon. You're a dick anyways.
i tried importing a model i made to unity and the uv maps are fucked up. what do i do about this?there shouldnt be a brown spot on the visor, and the cube on his head should be gray, not blue.i reimported the fbx into blender and the uv maps looked fine, so what the hells unity doing to cause this?
>>537428931why would they50% of posts is stardewtranny, other half is cris/bochipedos
>>537428804You could try making a game to get back at them
>>537429019same...>>537429260I already made a game. That's my whole gripe with them
>>537429167that's what you get for using jewnity
this is free-tier AI and it will only get better.we're obsolete.
>>537429506looks like ass
>>537426307That image has 3 agdg devs.to think cultic dev was one of us and no one mentions that, isn't even on vecreland that one Spies vs Mercs game is fucking DEAD
>>537429362i refuse to use shitdot or jeet engine, sorry little zoomie
>>537428931What happened to all the cool posters? I stopped coming here for a bit and when I came back they were all gone and the quality of the threads was somehow even worse than I thought possible.
>>537429506>weI'm not you lil bro
>>537429506It's because people kill themselves over their ai girlfriends its eating human sacrifices and becoming a golden calf that thinks it's god
I'm 22 away
>>537429650>says the retard who can't even import a model correctlyit's okay you'll never make a good game anyway
>>537424057Where can I learn to do pixel art? My attempts so far are nowhere near the level required (picrel)
>>537429714Inner circle made the threads into their low IQ chatroom and all the progress posters fucked off because osur, horbror, damascus, marmo, federx, stomy, PATdev, and so on couldn't stop shitposting and overpowered the threads with their obnoxious personalities. It all became about shitposting and making retard jokes instead of making games because all the most active posters became people who don't care about games so the gamedevs left (all except me)
>>537427963>Has the naysayer ever knelt and apologized to Peripeteia? To Underspace?Have they apologized to us for using us?
>>537430073download Blender and learn 3D modeling instead
>>537429714There's a schizo who frequents the general that fixates on a random dev every week and basically attempts to drive them out. Every week out of the blue a random dev will be made the target and they'd get mentioned 20 times per thread. Last week it was the Galduen dev, before that it was Peripeteia dev. Those devs then leave and go post elsewhere, like the /v/ threads.
>>537430114I like all of the people you listed, they were always nice to me and gave me good feedback. You sound like a very bitter, unlikable person and it's no surprise you were left out of whatever group you're referring to.
>>537429714>What happened to all the cool posters?I'm here
>>537430356Or maybe, just maybe, you're a massive faggot, and we should have gatekept attention seekers like you out of the community before it got filled up with normalfaggots who think that making games is a social activity that starts and ends with doing gay roleplay with other people online
>>537430583Found the schizo lol
>>537429714Most of them have left in disgust.
>>537429506Okay if we really are obsolete then you can safely stop posting here and move on to something else. Enjoy your (you)
>>537430073you're gonna want a program suited for pixel art first of all, it will simplify thing greatly for youAseprite is the standard choice, but there's also an open source version called LibrespriteStudy the games that have the style you're trying to nail, look at what they do, how they animate them, etc. The Spriters Resource is a good place to get entire spritesheets to dissect. Don't copy, but get inspired.Once you get a good pixel art program remake that animation.
>>537430812YOU MUST TOOI will not rest until I have saved you all from the futility of making effort. there is no hope. the machines have beaten us. except it wasn't august 29th 1997 but august 31st 2025.
>>537427963I originally doubted Branno and the Healed to Death concept, and I apologized after release.
>normalfaggots who think that making games is a social activityIf you actually believed this you wouldn't have made the conscious decision to come to this thread to interact with other people about game development.Even in your pathetic attempts at attention seeking from internet strangers you can't even come up with a coherent story for your schizo larp. And I'm supposed to believe you're capable of making a video game? You aren't a "schizo", you're just a teenager who's addicted to the dopamine rush you get from seeing new replies appear in the thread.
>>537431238I think there's utility in interacting with your professional peers, but you lot are a bunch of retarded apes, so my frustration comes from my realization that I can't have nice community to share progress with just because you people happen to be retarded apes
>>537431104It doesn't matter, man... we'll continue doing what we want to do regardless of anything.
>>537430925>Aseprite is the standard choice, but there's also an open source version called LibrespriteWhy not Gimp or Krita? What do these offer that the other two don't?
>>537431238bodied that freak
you just know the schizo shitposter is brown
>>537431652Specialization in specifically pixel art with all the other bullshit cut outYou wanna learn pixel art? Make it easier on yourself.
>>537427581>posting this>but no webm or even a screenshot of the "game" shitgpt producedevery time. if these chatbots were any good at making games there would be games by now. there aren't any. it's always>this gay, disabled illegal made a whole game using just AI!>the game looks like shit and doesn't actually work
>>537431917Huh, ok
>>537431880I thought he was french
>>537431238NTA but you sound like a tranny
>>537427564Last update: thank you to the anon who recommended I try this manga (many months ago, but I didn’t forget you). I was surprised they had it in stock, they don’t usually have much manga. I peeked inside and it looks cool! I’m about to make a cup of weak coffee and start reading it. Have a great day everyone!

>>537430459>>537433154I forgive you friends
what's with trannies and BLAME
I think you would feel much better if you reconsidered your worldview in which you tell yourself that everyone who disagree with you or enjoys things you don't is a transgender or a member of some other group of people you don't like.
Take your pimozide
>>537434798Yes, I'll try and delude myself into thinking that everyone isn't a demon set out to destroy me, so they have an easier job. Ain't something the devil would say, no siree.
I made a hobo that gives you a bag of shit
>>537435086You'll understand when you're older. At least I tried.
I always love when agdg is literally clueless about why random ass shitty newgrounds tier game about le funny little sprite of cats are running around while playing with yarn straws while some puppies and chickens round around in a japanese garden in a nice comfy rural japanese town with ASMR japanese music.And then you wonder, wtf, how the fuck does that appeal to normies and normie streamers, meanwhile my epic 2D retro platformer with totally hardcore gameplay and permadeath gets 2 reviews.
>>537434798cringe>>537435086based
Upcoming Demo Day is DD64, I might scrape together an N64 retro mode just for the occasion.
>brooo you don't get it you're like a demon and like the devil is talking to me or something bro I'm such a SCHIZO bro I'm so CRAZYY man I'm off my meds (which I dont actually have but I totally should bro because I'm INSANE)I cannot fucking wait for gen Z to move on to the next meme identity of the month. This shit is so played out already. I'd take the days of everything being called cringe over this shit, at least that was believable.
I FUCKING DID IT
>>537435785congrats :D
>>537435579hat of time dev is on agdg?
I've been working for 12 hours and I'm tired.
>inner circle>donut
>>537436325I've been researching for 12 hours and I'm refreshed.
>>537436370Congratulations, you've passed. Your invitation will sent shortly.
>>537436153it's from a reddit post one year ago
>>537424308this poster is fygoon btwnot sure why he's symbolizing that with an albinuric
>>537436153No.
>>537424057AAAAAAHHHHH MY GAME WILL GET ME HOT COSPLAYER FANGIRLS TOO
>>537425196That's actually why nortubel 2 got cancelledthe developer wanted to distance himself from eyeball tank
>>537428804specter of los type post, welcome back amigo
>>537433842Hey azur troon when you reversed your sausage implant did you need a neovagina to fix the damage?
>>537437464why are you obsessed with trannies?
>panel object that stands bellow button interrupts the mouse pass of said button that stands ATOP panelGodot can't get any more retarded than this
>>537427963I would like to reminder you that hypercoven launched and the dev admitted it was a flop. Almost all of the replies when he admitted it was a flop were wishing him luck on his next release.Not because hypercoven was even a decent game, but because making an RTS was really fucking difficult and it was a meaningful stepping stone towards making a better game in the future.Undeserved praise is toxic in an industry where it's incredibly difficult to make it. Nobody has ever made a better game due to being unfairly glazed.
>>537435329Who let this schizo out?
trying to do procedural animations with hands for an FPS in engine is driving me crazy. getting these hands to rotate to where they need to be as well as the fingers makes me want to just go block hands and say fuck it.
>>537437835No, it doesn't. Skill issue.
>>537431238making video games is not a solo activity, it's cope for being self centered
>>537436946I do that
>>537437649well is that a yes or a no?
>>537434798I think you would feel much better if you stopped taking estrogen and told your parents that you want to be a boy again
>>537439616I think you would feel much better if you stopped talking about troons all the time
rent free
>>537437649The bigger question is why are trannies obsessed with porn and little boys and girls?
>>537382701I wouldn't be surprised. I usually have to go out of my way to find out when a game I wishlisted is out because steam doesn't do a good job of telling me. The little bell icon lights up but it also lights up for messages and all kinds of shit so I barely notice.
>>537437835change the mouse filter options in the inspector panel silly
>got tortured for being trans>go back as a seriously bad girl and its dangerous for someone like me>get called a nerd and belittled by everyone.I dont fucking even care i just know there's a cult that made the police do that the first time
>>537439782I think picrel would make me feel even better
mods, ban the next person that mentions trannies
>>537440243what ethnicity are you of?
mods, ban the next tranny that posts in this thread

>>537425196>>537442285That's based tho
>>537429714/agdg/ is the Section 8 housing of gamedev. You only come here if you got nowhere else to go and no other place will take you. Once you make it, there's no point in moving back to the projects.
>>537442593>all the successful agdg devs posted here like 3 times and then fucked off permanentlyNot true.
>>537442840i cant think of anyone who didnt
>>537442840Yeah Crumble stuck around to gloat
>>537442840When was the last time you saw Hopoo or Ivy Sly or the FlyKnight dev post here?
>>537443152They're constantly posting anonymously every single day.
>537417517Nothing super deep, just stuff like “is going back to some scene transition near the starting point for the climax, like in planescape torment, a cute convention or an eye rolling cliche”.Or why games where you play as a quadruped are (almost?) always platformers, if there’s something about it that makes combat untenable.

>>537443976Not all the time, only when I have time for a short break. I don't usually leave a post either.
how dumb is this?
>>537445091about three dumbs
>>537445091For what? If you rig it it will probably move like shit because the topology is bad. The lines should follow the bones and musculature of a body.
>>537445091I've never modeled before, what does it mean when the mesh is all rainbow colored like this? I've seen it a few times before.
>>537445286>he lines should follow the bones and musculature of a body.nigga his knee is four vertices
>>537445802It means your mesh is gay
I'm in my villain arc nigga I'm straight up evil I be plotting schemes and shit
>>537446316Can I be toga himiko and join you
>>537446589idk what that means
>>537445802normal maps google it bud!
>>537445802>>537445286>>537445131Should I unwrap it differently?
>>537446316what up nigga me 2
>>537443592>>537443773It's not that simple.I'll use Undertale for example since many people have played it. Instead of doing a flashback, it has a 'second home', it has music that links back to the start and it has a character who's also linked back to the start.It's cliché to simply point at the thing you started with and say "woah it's just like this" but it becomes less cliché when you ...fuck it, we're in a game thread. You just send the player back to the start of the game for some reason (or in the case of Undertale, an almost replica of the start of the game) and have things be a bit different. There's nothing eyerolley about that, players would love to be able to go back to places they've previously been instead of being railroaded on one long track.
>>537447745no you should symmetrize the mesh or just auto remesh the thing it'll be better than rigging pure jank.
>>537448019Certainly not nigga friendly. Go find a banana or something
>>537448170based porn addicted pedophile
>>537448331There are pale monkeys too its just humans are like ants do i consider how they feel when I step on them.
>>537448097>symmetrizeit already is (left/right)>auto remeshwhat button is this?
gamedev crimes were commited against my game, and the corrupt police arent doing a thing about it
>>537448076Fair enough. I basically like it as a convention, because I like the emotions created by going back to a place you haven’t seen since you didn’t know what was going on, now with context reframing everything you see. But I honestly haven’t played enough games to know if it’s super worn out.
Jesus gave me a dream saying to me directly im above humans because im the planet venus
>>537405546>what game? looks neatProbably just going back to the working title of "Slide game" for a while. Called it "Escape from Mount Su-Meru" last time I submitted, but throwing away the references to Buddhist mysticism and apparently it's a name used in Genshin Impact (didn't know; don't play gachas)
>>537448825Oh then you're fine, just don't do any big moves or your going to crease all over the place unless you're ok with that.
I'm gonna photobash a song from multiple MIDIS from better musicians from classical music and metal.It's not like retards wont suck my dick if I make my melody from a mozart song and redraw it into a newer melody using uematsu chords and modern EDM shit.
>>537448825>>auto remeshit only works if you have a high poly model with bad topology.just try to rig it, it will showcase the multiple mistakes on the joints, you will learn more from fixing them with the scissors tool. don't unwrap it yet because the mesh will change as you try to make it riggable.
>>537448962>>537443592I'm going to bed now so I can't have a discussion but I can drop some wisdom as someone who has done game writing and shipped a product people have played.Creative writing has a huge dunning kruger effect because everyone writes but few people create a product that reaches people. You should really talk with people who've actually made Visual Novels and such things.>1. You can overscope writingYou can only introduce so many characters or places or ideas before it overloads players and they get confused, especially with two similar characters or characters that aren't actively being seen and shown. I try to avoid mentioning characters that are not physically present too often. If you do, you should try to mention the same non-present character multiple times to establish who they are to different people, rather than mentioning multiple different characters.>2. it also takes a really long fucking time to make placesExploring one region could take years of game development.>3. nothing survives first contactLet's say you write a character to be the good guy who helps you out at the start. They give you jobs and shit.Now players hate them because they demand you do things and give you little control. They become the bad guys to players, because>4. in games, gameplay is storyThe story is more than just what you write, the player having to do quests for the character is now part of the story and now it seems like a slave drive.ok sleeptime bye
ain't reading all that
>>537449274>it will showcase the multiple mistakes on the jointswhat mistakes?I mostly just looked at this model (the lowpoly one on the left) for general shape and placements of vertices and edges while creating mine

>>537452663>Brahmin chads, it's our time to shine.
you have it in you to make a game as you are.
>>537453879Correct but if I was a cute girl doing the same things I've been doing I'd be an e-celeb overnight
>>537454080is there any way to fix this..
>>537453879I don't want to just make a game though (I already have, several times), I want to make a good game.Similarly, I don't just want a gf, I want the super hot gf of my dreams.
I added a toggle for my fullscreen shader but I think I'll remove it.I have a vision and you'll play the game how I envision (it looks like shit without it).

I asked a cute college girl if she wanted to play tag, she said she had classes. So I grabbed her bag and threw it onto the roof of thomas hall and called her a bitch.
>>537454080I used to think that if I ever got a gf I'd use her as a face for my game, but now that I have one I realize that's basically whoring her out so no self-respecting man would ever do that.
>>537454343Either become trans (doesn't work because ywnbarw) or just stop being a faggot and acting like that
>>537435681Yeah psychosis is very not fun, you ruin relationships, socially isolate with fear, and burn out your brainNo clue why people roleplay it, as somebody who's experienced it it's not worth the meme
I added ladders, that's enough to qualify as progress right?
>>537449591>>4. in games, gameplay is storyThis is why I dont respect storyfagsIf your story was good you'd write a book. If your game was good you wouldnt need to stop the gameplay every 10 mins to have your story play out. A story driven game has to be actually exceptionally good to not just be random busywork between cutscenes or dialog boxes
>>537455843Decent ladder controls are one of the main boss battles of game design
Never admit to hard work. If you attribute your great success to drive, dedication, and excellence you will be resented.To be loved, act like it suddenly fell into your lap. People will be convinced you have the “midas touch” and align with you to increase their own fortune.
>>537456229Thanks Todd.
>>537456254Don't know why you're posting this advice in a thread full of losers
>>537456365Because I used to make the mistake of bragging about how hard I worked on my game and don't want my friends on agdg to make the same mistake.
>>537456254When people call me smart I just decline out of humbleness. "I'm not smart you're just dumb" is what I usually tell them.

>What ended up happening was we made this game, we put all our hearts and souls into it, we shipped it, and then.. it wasn't good. That was another big shock and a big, big learning opportunity. Like, "okay, we put all this effort into this, almost died doing it, you know, and in the end, it's not even good?"
just like make game
>>537456254Yeah no shit, I learned that when I was like 16 and got perfect scores on all college admission tests after doing like two prep books cover to cover on each of them.I had the interaction “wow you must be a genius -> no I just [prep explanation] -> person suddenly hates me forever for no apparent reason” like ten times in a month.People don’t like being reminded that all outcomes they’ve experienced are their fault.

Lately I've been watching documentaries on the development of old games in my breaks between dev sessions. I'm becoming increasingly convinced the "make pong" and "keep scope limited" approach is completely wrong.The great games of the past were made by naive idiots chasing massively over-scoped fantasies that were literally impossible to make but they were too dumb and inexperienced to know it was impossible until they tried and failed. And yet, while chasing those wildly unrealistic dreams, they somehow ended up making some of the most beloved classics of their time. Maybe we should be chasing over-scoped impossibly unrealistic dream games after all.
>>537462485They all made Pong decades before the beginning of those documentaries, retard.
>>537426398>No, it exists in my ball sackOf course it exists in my mind, that's where I build ideas first.
>>537462702And pretty much every dev here also made pong decades ago too, so maybe it's time to retire the "make pong" meme?
>>537462778I never made pong but I made space invaders and pacman
>>537462778There are literal high school drop outs who haven't even written "hello world" here.
>>537462778"Make Pong" is only reserved for anons that literally have no clue what they're talking about or doing. It's not different from telling a newbie chef to make brownies or a telling a newbie musician to learn Mary Had a Little Lamb.
>>537432012No man, the gay disabled illegal masterpiece just needs a rerelease with much bigger team!
You can spend 15 years of your life making an overscoped unfocused piece of shit if you want, but just know I'm gonna laugh at you the whole time while you do it.
>>537428190lies. Barone is pronounced "Ba-Rone-Ee" and was originally Bologna (Ba-Lone-Ee, like the processed deli meat)When the Bologna family moved out west, they were pilgrims looking for a new, affordable life. Unfortunately, due to being gypsies they could only afford to live in China Town with all of the rail road workers.Due to their accent, the Chinamen kept pronouncing it "Ba-Rone-Ee" instead of "Ba-Lone-Ee" as intended. One year, in the early 20th century, the United State's police force were out in full force to seek out and arrest all gypsies across the country. The proud Bologna family knew the jig was finally up, but they had one more trick up their sleeves.Using their Chinese friends and neighbors as inspiration, the Bologna family changed their surname to Barone (Ba-Rone-Ee) in an effort to seem less suspicious to the Gypsy Police.This worked, and the Bologna's... Oops, I mean, Barone's, were free to live another day in freedom. And as a thank you for this freedom? Eric Barone, Bologna, the heir to the Bologna namesake, created Stardew Valley for everyone to enjoy. Just as the gypsies of yesteryear put on great spectacles and shows for all to enjoy.Thanks for reading, I hope you learned something about the history of this great nation.
Guys, I want to automatically save the backup Blender temporary file within a folder called "backup" for each main folder. How do you type out the directory? Having to move the extra .blend that Blender creates whenever saving a project is annoying.

>>537462932I think the pong meme is more like telling a wannabe chef to fry eggs or make stir friesYeah you can just make basic ass fried eggs and just noodles with veggie mixOr you can keep adding things and see what works and what doesn't, add lemon garlic to your basic ass stir-fry and see what works (add powerups, timer, online play), try making a French omelette with chives and see why it doesn't work, just keep playing and keep it low scope until you figure tricks to make bigger and better stuff later

Heck, forget about the food itself, I bet you they don't even know how to turn on the stove.What's crazy is there is this exact same meme over at the art side of things "Just Draw"

Also, if you can, just pirate a paid course. They will probably be a lot more detailed than anything you can find on Youtube.

Why doesn't gdscript just have an option to compile into c# when you export the game for performance?
>>537470572>he thinks godot c# is more performant than gdscript.That's where you're wrong kiddo
>>537470572At that point just make gdscript a language that compiles directly to c / assembly
>>537470697Cpp definitely is, by at least x10
>>537470572Because you can mix and match languages in Godot. Just write all the performant shit you want in C# and everything else in GDScript.
>>537470769>>537470710So it's possible but the devs don't think it's a priority because you can do it? that's fair, I was just wondering if it's possible.
I use mit license

>>537471112Can we just make our own fucking distribution software already? I'm tired of Steam and Itch and puritanical fucks ruining free expression
>>537470761C# isn't C++, and the engine is already written in C++, the scripting language just hooks into engine calls. In some cases the C# bindings are less performant than the gdscript bindings.
>>537470141Imagine getting filtered by setting up C# in Godot, there are literally teenagers doing this and you're here complaining that it's hard. Back to Pong.
>>537471062wizardry 8
>>537471254You're not even a good enough dev to make a game that isn't being propped up by porn, why do you think you're smart enough to make a software distribution platform?
>>537471254You get what you voted for.
>>537471370I meant you can use C++ instead via GDExtension. You can look up benchmarks / tests C++ extensions are much faster than GDScript. I don't get why people go with C# for "performance" but still deal with the garbage collector? All your "performance" goes down the drain because the GC ran, sometimes outside of your control.
>>537471370I started Godot with .NET and then switched to GDScript and it just simply makes more fucking sense. It's better to use their domain specific language than try to use the clusterfuck that is C# when you have to interface with nodes and shit anyways. The only reason to use C# is if you're a fucking wageslave codemonkey
>>537471612>>>/pol/>>537471561Crab
>>537469574This is exactly why people say "Make Pong". Your game, if it even exists, is straight up buzzword soup if I've ever seen it.
>>537471625Nobody who makes games in godot knows about or needs the performance of gdextensions and nobody who needs the performance of gdextensions would use godot
>>537471254Don't worry. This is reversing course in a few years. If not way sooner.
You ever fix a problem and then you're like "I'm done"As in fixing it was so draining that you just lose all energy?
>>537472023>This is reversing course in a few years. If not way sooner.Says who?
>>537471640Yeah I found it was a shitty developer experience last time I tried it. Good for enticing unity refugees I guess.
>>537472092You'll know.
>>537471640Honestly Gdscript is good enough for most use cases, if you're trying to make anything really complex you'd most likely be using a proprietary engine and working in an AA or AAA studio and coding the whole thing in C++.
>>537472247>you're trying to make anything really complex you'd most likely be using a proprietary engine and working in an AA or AAA studio and coding the whole thing in C++.If you're coding C++ then you could probably just mod the engine (which is allowed anyways)
>>537471957>buzzwordI didn't set out to make a game from 'buzzwords'. I do agree with make pong first. this not my first game by a long shot.
>>537470572>>537470761GDScript is extremely fast for all the things it was actually designed to do, like calling engine functions and annotating data classes. C++ GDExtension is less than 2x faster than GDScript.
should I just use rpgmaker and use AI to make extensions for me
>>537472031yeah, but not usually in a sad way. "yay I'm finally I'm done, time for a well deserves 4 hour nap"if the problem took days though... :/
>>537473815>should I just use rpgmaker and use AI to make extensions for me
>>537473734> C++ GDExtension is less than 2x faster than GDScrip-ACK
>>537473815Have you made Pong first?
>>537474412Ah yes. Finding prime numbers. That's really what you should be doing with GDScript!
>>537475026Yes but also you're talking out of your ass, it's not "less than 2x" faster. Nobody wants to use your hugbox scripting shit so "women" can pretend they're doing actual coding
elder scrolls but it's set in a megadungeon and it's xianxia
>>537471640>>537472158That's interesting. I've been thinking of doing the opposite and switching over to C# for my next project. I find GDScript a little too basic and the bureaucracy of Godot's dev team means it takes ages for qol language features to be added to it. I remember the wait for typed dictionaries being absolutely agonizing. What's wrong with Godot's C#?
>>537476030Godot only has C# because Microsoft literally paid for them to put it in. It doesn't get as much focus as GDScript because of it and due to the fact that most people who use Godot use GDScript anyway.
>>537475623I'm one of the few anons here who actually uses C++ GDExtensions sometimes. It's 5x the boilerplate for less than 2x performance increase. This has always been the case for working a scripting language that calls to a C++ library. For example, pytorch and tensorflow work the same way. It's a skill issue.
>>537469314Yep I'm filtered I'm already fighting it. Good on ya if you like it, I don't feel like learning it just this minute, maybe in a few years it'll be retard proof.

Godot bros, are the settings for changing window sizes fucked up or am I missing something? I figured I would support the option of playing in a window with some common resolutions in case fullscreen looks like shit on wide monitors, different aspect ratios, etc. but but setting the window mode to `WINDOWED` still just ignores all window size settings
>>537481357Skill issue. Read the docs. Most of the settings in ProjectSettings are read only on start-up. To change the window size during runtime, you have to change it in DisplayServer.
>>537481794I read the docs before I came here. I've tried both `DisplayServer.window_set_mode()` and `get_window().mode` (with and without their recommended stretch settings)
My god I have been stuck for many hours now renaming and reorganizing my assets. Just random deprecated shit that doesn't belong there, naming conventions that don't make sense or don't tell enough.

>>537462485When I tell anons to "make pong", it's because I think they're daydreaming rather than working on a game.

>>537483570Instead of telling them to make pong they need to be completely hazed out of the hobby entirely. Gatekeep them, thin out any future competition. We need entry requirements.
>>537484095"Make Pong" already gatekeeps 90% of nodevs, which is why they will never do it.
>>537484095Gamedev in and of itself is already self-gatekeeping. Most people who work on games never finish them, and that's not even an /agdg/ exclusive problem. It's everywhere. Like how many devlogs for abandoned games have you seen in your life?

>>537483816pls stop, I'm trying to quit...
>>537484179Telling the nodevs to make pong and giving them a viable and achievable path forward to becoming yesdevs is gateopening. You are potentially taking a useless nodev who will never accomplish anything except shitting up this thread, and potentially turning him into future competition.Do not tell him to make pong. Call him a retard, call him a faggot, call him Indian. Keep the yesdev boot on the neck of the nodev scum.
>>537462485the games that made it were also original in their ideas. most overscoped ideas by amateurs are usually some big rpg with systems we've all seen before. in their mind, a game with many systems and content would mean that it would be difficult for the player to get bored.
>>537484095no, let people make games, have their game fail, get critique, do slightly better each time.

>>537483570The first question sure but the second two are pretty reasonable to ask if you're working on those kind of games
>>537483050What version of Godot are you on? I'm on 4.4 and I'm seeing a lot of regression claims (e.g. https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/104421)
>>537484569quit what
gay pedotrannie hours
>>5374865024.5beta5 originally, but I just reran it in 4.4.1 and it still works. Note that I'm using fullscreen and not exclusive fullscreen though. Exclusive comes with a slew of Windows-inherent issues and generally isn't worth it imo.
God Hand game anon are you here? post progress I haven't been in the threads much/missed you
>>537487142Shut the fuck up, nodev. Why don't you post your own game? Oh wait.
>>537471640Big codebases with dynamically typed languages are suicide fuel. Making any refactorings is absolute pain in the ass that requires fucking run time testing, and for that reason already c# is way better choice. GDScript also lacks necessary features like interfaces.>>537472158I don't really understand how? There's docs for C#, all the API functions are basically the same except with Pascal case names. Yeah most of the forum posts and examples are in GDScript, but it's retardedly easy to just translate it to C# in your head.
>>537486626that
>>537477116Unityscript actually had the opposite problem GDScript has. As time went on, Unityscript got less and less support from Unity itself and third-party tools. GDScript has only gotten more support and is what the entire engine is based on.
>>537487319Relax nigga
>>537485098>just casually writes off AA games and shit that looks way higher effort than any of the garbage posted in hereYou guys are delusional.
>>537488048>YEAH BUT WHAT ABOUT THE 0.00000000001%
>>537486081This nigga says morning, I'm still in the middle of my shift here.
>>537488048NTA but which one are you referring to?
>>537487008I'm hitting issues with both fullscreen and exclusive. I don't have any weirdness when starting in windowed mode, but then as soon as I try to do anything with resizing I just get vacuumed into fullscreen and can't escape. Going from what you said maybe I'm fighting a Windows issue instead of a Godot issue
>>537488237The only game in here from the last year that looks like an actual game is landsword, and that's flash game tier. The settlers colony sim looks promising through.
>>537488386>the onlyNo it's not
>>537488048A polished piece of shit is still shit
>>537488386>landsword>flash game tier.No fucking way it's flash game tier. What games did you play that had this level of fidelity? If that's flash game tier then games like Synthetik is also flash game tier. And that one is sitting at 7k reviews. Landsword is guaranteed 1k+ reviews in my opinion worst case scenario. As long as they get the gameplay right.
What.The.FUCK!!!!He used AI voice in his game!!! How the fuck is that acceptable!!!
>>537488048I recall checking back on some of the better looking ones and they topped at 50/100 reviews. maybe 1 or two of them.I never said most DD games can clear that, just that a real attempt will have a real shot at it. you are not competing with 50 good games on the day of your release.
>>537487780i look like this
>>537488610https://store.steampowered.com/app/1828800/Arksync/
>>537485098>ai capsule>it's just textWtf?
>>537488324I also just tested it with exclusive fullscreen and it still works lol. I did manage to break it with resizable turned off. It looks like it'll refuse to full screen if the window size is at maximized size but is not actually "maximized" according to Windows.
>>537488858Oh wow the art for this one actually looks solid. Other than the trailer needing a lot more polishing. Perhaps the early access on the platformer game was the culprit? I really don't think that's appropriate. Would have to actually play the game to truly know.
>>537487539>I don't really understand how?It's been a while so I don't have a comprehensive list. The integrated code editor in godot gives easier access to nodes, like being able to drag nodes from the scene tree into code to get a node path, not having to alt-tab from godot to visual studio, there's a bunch of little QoL features. I also couldn't get the debugger working properly so my experience was probably worse due to that.
/agdg/ will never learn anything because they make snap judgments about every genre they aren't familiar with and then act surprised when the release doesn't go like they expected
>>537489045Are you on Windows 10? I just keep finding less and less works for me. Even when forcing a window, I can't get the border to show up no matter what. Borderless is off in the project settings and calling `get_window().borderless = false` doesn't help either
this whole general needs medsunironically
>>537489251you're giga stupid if your only metric for evaluating games is artstyle
>>537489487>you're giga stupid if your only metric for evaluating games is artstyleGood thing I never said or implied that in any of my posts then. You're talking to a ghost.
>>537489582You rated two games completely based on their artsyle just now in two consecutive posts
>>537489391Yeah Win10. Here's what I was testing with if you want to mess with it. I'm going to sleep. Good night and good luck.https://files.catbox.moe/kvu8og.tscn
>>537489694>You rated two games completely>>537488610>As long as they get the gameplay right.>>537489251>Would have to actually play the game to truly know.Now I'm no linguist, but I'm pretty sure this already implies if not outright state the gameplay aspect of it. You better be an ESL or get your glasses because you are clearly blind.
>>537489857Thanks, man. Will keep digging
>>537489941those are meaningless sentiments. You added those almost like an afterthought when hose things should have been the focus of your posts. You're being too nice to the games only because of their artstyles when you would never be this gracious to a great game with a worse artstyle. Your posts should have said>The games have really bad boring pointless empty gameplay and don't look like they have any potential despite that they have great art. The devs would have to put in some serious work to salvage these kenyan helicopter projects
>>537489285Agdg is never objective about anything. Their entire worldview boils down to>game in genre I like will succeed because good>game in genre I dislike will fail because bad
This general sucks off Peripeteia too much.
.
half the mentally ill zoomers in these threads hate immersive sims for literally no reason
UUUUOOOOOOHHHHH CHARACTER DESIGN
>>537490214>You added those almost like an afterthought when hose things should have been the focus of your posts.Bro are you retarded? How do you give an opinion of the gameplay of a game you've NEVER played? I'm mostly focusing on the art because that's almost literally all I have to go on off. So of course I would hold off stronger opinions on that. Because ultimately, you would need to play the game itself to give an actual opinion.>when you would never be this gracious to a great game with a worse artstyle. HOW do you know this? Either you are someone with supernatural powers or completely delusional and reading a version of my post that you've completely fabricated in your head. I'm leaning the latter.
>>537483816Just copy this.
>>537490952And that goes double for the 37 year old zoomers who grew up playing only consoleshit and shooters
>>537488831You have to be 18+ to post here
>>537490914>hag with tattooseric is not interested
>>537491040I know because you came in here doing a peudoanalysis on these so-called "games you have never played". If you have never played them then don't pretend like you know how likely they are to make it purely on the graphics. You are straight up admitting that you're speaking without knowing anything about the games besides how they look on a screenshot. If you had any idea what you're talking about you wouldn't have started larping as Chris Zuckowski Jr about a bunch of games that you have never touched
>537490952Peripeteia is a shit immersive sim, tranny. Deep State is a much better one. FUCK OFF.
>>537491396keep seething faggot. Peri won
Wait, wait, you think I'm the one who made >>537485098 ? Alright, you are definitely talking to someone else. I hope you enjoy your conversation inside your head.
>>537490882we barely talk about it
>>537491607I accept your concession
the imsim schizo still mad about peripeteia?
>>537492057what's the story here? is the imsim schizo mad about imsims in general or is it a schizo dev making an imsim?
If cropolution was an idler, it would've been a massive hit
>>537492987there's a poster that went into a huge meltie because he got filtered by imsims and he's been going at it ever since peripeteia released
>>537490914Imagine his DMs. He must be getting a ton of nudes
>>537490914Women with tattoos 99% always mean they have poor impulse control. The only time I would forgive it if it had an actual story behind it like if it was to honor their grandparents or something.
>>537493058>If cropolution was an idler, it would've been a massive hit
>>537489285>>537490691who is /agdg/? Is it one man who learns and masters gamedevving skills and acumulates knowledge? Someone who is consistent with his views and can learn from his mistakes? Someone with a set direction that will readjust only when necessary?No, agdg is a group of different people on different paths of their gamedev life doing different things and hoping to achieve different goals. You can't say >/agdg/because we're not a collective, one-minded political party or a group that is doing exactly one thing in one way. We have people who come and go, people with a lot of experience and people completely new, people burnt out and people eager to create next open world MMORPG. Don't lump us with one, exact type of dev who is in here only for the money. Don't assume that one anon word is automatically the /agdg/ stand. We're making games and as such, there's hundreds of ways to do it and hundreds of reasons why do it. And definitely we'll say different things about different games and genres because not everything is for everyone. You want one, undivided opinion? Start a cult, a political movement or become a celebrity, otherwise you won't have one undivided message here.
>>537493692you are pretty unanimous in your opinions tho

why are topology niggas so zesty?
My game has an unusual amount of followers with 15+ years on Steam
What do typical steam shovelware indie devs typically spend on ad buys? $0? Would spending $10k be pissing in the wind?
>>537496097they've been saying facebook ads is the best bang for the buck for years but really, good game sells itself
My long ago dropped games suddenly got surge (10) in views stats. "Ah, the DD is close..." I thought to myself.
your game = fart
>>537496097Ads do fuck all, the meta is to hire someone to make organic looking posts on forums and social media. Half the threads on /v/ are marketing spam disguised as discussion.
>>537498023Why hire anyone when I can do it for free if I like your game?

Hello. I demade a 20 year old game because my kid complained clicking tiny boxes with mouse is hard and she would prefer playing with a gamepad. I presented this to her two weeks later and she was stoked. That's all, thank you. you gentlemen have a good day.
>>537501932the original in case anyone wondered

>>537495178see >>537429506it made the changes in one second for $0. and this is at its least capable and more expensive than it's ever going to be.

>>537502740>insincere oversocialized gigafaggot walks into thread and posts his "game" which he is sure will farm him positive responses because he thinks that if you make something socially wholesome that absolves you of any criticism.Nah, people like that are cancer. Being overly feminized is not a shield you can use to excuse you ruining the greatest artform that humanity created. Reddit is that way if you want to farm karma
>>537502870>ruining the greatest artform that humanity createdoh. for a second i thought you were for real
>>537503085you don't belong here
>>537500868Are you still in Japan?
The Isle, but it's modern-day animals.Animals are region-locked, meaning polar bear characters can't be played in the Savannah, for example.When you die, you have to start over as a baby.If you grow up to reach max level, you get points that you can spend to create a character of a different, potentially more powerful species, to create a sense of progression.
Alright I have the next billion dollar streamer bait game.Do you know that meme with two buttons with incompatible truths to press? Make that a triple-A first person production, with AI voicing your button texts, and lots of of sfx as the button pusher can't decide which to push and devolves into insane incoherent gorilla shouts and babbling and foaming at the mouth and shaking and redouts and blackouts with all the meme voicelines and sound effects on top of the voice actor losing their sanity crashing out and shitting amd pissing themselves.The game is literally just trying to push the button but you can't and you watch the cutscene evolve and laugh
>>537504010That's not good enough to qualify as an idea. When I get ideas they need to reach a threshold of depth and involvement before I consider them viable
>>537504158What do you mean? The game's mechanics are mostly copy-pasted from The Isle.
>>537504142I'm so glad that AI exists now so that dumb ass retarded ideas like this can be made in a day which cheapens them and shows all of you retards who come up with them just how lame and pointless they are so you get filtered out of the hobby early and we end up with less stupid devs
>>537504268So why shouldn't I just play the Isle? It's playable right now. I could just go over to steam and buy it

>>537506727i'm noticing an influx of nodebuster clones that are heavily inspired by the thematic style and incremental design but fail to effectively replicate the casualized nature of the game that makes it so widely accessible, the rapid sense of progression per upgrade increment, and the increasing scale of stimulation as the game progressesnodebuster, and by proxy, digseum, since both are likely made by the same developer, also do a great job of introducing a narrative premise, motivating the player to progress through the, admitted, shallow, but still existing, "story" of the gamein nodebuster, you're hacking a computer to release a virusin digseum, you're building a museum and collecting artifacts, eventually discovering the limits of the universe and resetting reality through a black holewith the necessary accesibility, stimulation, and meaningful progression jumps, a basic narrative can take an incremental game from an uninteresting flop that people bounce off of after a few upgrades, to a massive hitif the upgrade pacing feels unrewarding, if the game lacks audiovisual stimulation, or if the gameplay is requires excessive effort (by genre standards), the game won't perform welland even with these standards being met, a lack of a narrative to progress through will prevent a larger audience from fully enjoying the gameincremental games still need stories
I'm struggling to make a mod for another game, I'm ngmi
>>537506397You won't always like the feedback but feedback is rarely wrong. It's usually just packaged in a way that you need to recontextualize.The correct way to handle this is to reply as if they didn't insult you in any way, which might be to not reply at all or if it's "THIS PIECE OF SHIT GAME CRASHED FUCK YOU" you'd ask for anything that could help you find out why it crashed.The guy has a point. I hate how many games like this trickle feed you small incremental upgrades. I tried your game and I don't think it's that bad, but it does feel like it would be better if you got twice the upgrades for each purchase so things could go along faster. However, it's still pretty in line with other incremental games of this kind, so it might still be successful, it's just I personally don't like these smaller upgrades.
What's the standard way to avoid allocating structs or objects at runtime? Just keep everything in data structures you fill out as needed? I want to add undo/redo but it's kind of a pain when working with lots of pointers and objects that come and go.
>>537507450alright nigga wrap it upokincremental games aren't as easy to make as one would assumea deep understanding of what makes these games appealing is required for commercial success, in addition to the conventional game requirements of an effective marketing campaignyou can't just click a button and watch numbers pointlessly go up, people need more
>>537507785Feedback is always wrong
>>537507785>>537506397just a heads up, this isn't my gamei found the picture on reddit and it would be funny to share herehttps://www.reddit.com/r/gamedevscreens/s/am4h2nMOzlbut yeah, i agreethe upgrade pacing makes the game feel grindy, which isn't appealing to most players for this genreincremental enjoyers want rapid upgrades, even if they're marginal, it feels better to click the "+0.3 stat" button multiple times after a run, rather than once every 2 runsthese games are easy to make, but seem really hard to do well

>>537518954Your game and by extent you yourself would be associated with pedophiles for the rest of your life. I don't see much of an upside to posting here unless you have nothing to lose or you consider yourself to be reckless by nature
>>537518954Yes. Yes. Yes.
>>537518954>Is there any positive from posting my game here?Demo Day feedback can be useful>Won't most of you just wish ill upon me, shit on it, and attempt to demoralize me?yes
>>537518954DD feedback is good. When it comes to progress posting... maybe. I see it like twitter posts. Really just to keep your game fresh in people's minds so they play it during DD.
>>537518954The only one who would try to demoralize you is the inner circle but they have been kicked out
>>537518309:D post your progress once you finish a tutorial. I'm following a course rn, will post later in the week when i finish it, designing a retro styled character
haha time to dev
>>537520124just imagine this scenario, its year 1997, you have a business that runs pretty much on autopilot or some non-demanding job. You come home, you boot up your win95 PC and you are ready to dev. What will you create today?
>>537520628A first person RPG with AI voice acting.
>>537520684>ai voice actingNot possible in ‚97
Oh god making user interfaces is the hardest part so far. any good resources for this especially in unity?
>>537520628A King's Field clone.
>>537520913Nice
>>537519420Which pedophiles? /agdg/ has been around for 15 years and released 0(zero) lolitroon games, unless you mean the /sdvg/ crossposter ragebaiting because xir thread is dead but xhey're not /agdg/.Curious that you would even associate /agdg/ with pedophiles outta nowhere, what's your game btw?
>>537518954Well if your game is similar to mine, I'll add an easter egg with your game in mine. We can become dev friends like pic related did.
Should I go back to the drawing board until I have a story board, designs, lore and planned mechanics and cutsceneS?Or should I just make stuff
>>537521240Does Stygian Flowers not count as a loli game?

>>537521756what about the eliza game in dd. I don't want to have my game next to some shit like that
>>537521530This is an interesting question.

All I have to do now is create a level generator that will work for any 3d game type. Simple.
>>537521530fygoon predicted thisif anyone is against gatekeeping tell them to read the archive for pre 'cord and post 'cord /agdg/, eceleb worship, lolisharts, etc all happened because of reddit tourists who read greentext screenshots and decided to join le epic 4chan thinking that every thread is like the reddit greentext screenshots they read

when making a game with rpg elements how do you resolve tests?not asking for instructions, just curious if you use flat percentages, simulate dice rolling or some other way
>>537521530It's literally just unhappy """""people""""" trying to make everything around them as miserable as they are. Everything has to be ironic, ragebait or just being a piece of shit even tho it doesn't matter because AI won and is destroying everything.
>>537510063>indie games>priced above $20 everlol lmao
i'm taking a university course in AI planning for games. very interesting stuff... reading papers about how they made F.E.A.R right now
>Quake1 engine became open source in 1999missed my chance to create something big, but I wonder why a lot of games didnt use it?
Do you think I could get RandomGaminginHD to try out my game on whatever lowest end hardware he has? Not even necessarily to record a video, just to see how it runs.
>>537521530It's a textbook example of a community getting poisoned by dedicated malicious elements.In real life it's called psyops but in here it's just some unemployed tranny spamming nepobaby slop and sexualized kids.
I'm adding a framerate limit option to my game. Is 15, 30, 60, "current monitor refresh rate", uncapped options good or should I add 120, 144, 240 and shit like that?
Silksong is really making devs face the uncomfortable truth about their slop. Have you taken the silkpill yet and lived to tell the tale?

>>537520628I'd probably jerk off to porn and then go to bed feeling unsatisfied and depressed
i made more money with my analog horror slop than all my gameslol
>niggas be makin and tryin to sell games>mfw I can just go to archive.org and download thousands of games for free, legallyI'm gonna play City of Lost Children tonight and noone can stop me
just take it easyit's over for you

I made 3 variants of the wipe down effect each with different bar thicknesses and it goes like> proc_alt_enter()> if DisplayServer.mouse_get_button_state() & MOUSE_BUTTON_MASK_LEFT:> var x_res:=Game.x_res()> if x_res > 3000:> doom_melt_1024.generate_offsets()> doom_melt_1024.transition()> elif x_res > 1900:> doom_melt_512.generate_offsets()> doom_melt_512.transition()> else:> doom_melt_128.generate_offsets()> doom_melt_128.transition()other wise they are too thin on windowed mode and too chunky on fullscreen if just a single size, now they are approximately evenly sized more or lesscan't really do it with an algorithm unless I really change the shader codeand then to skip a startup screen you'll LMB and that will spawn a gun hand and play explosion sprites one for each click while the current startup screen transitions to the next using this wipe down effect. unskippable start up screens always make me mash the kb or A-button.still part way through the remake coz works been busy af and I'm doing a learn python course at the same time to learn django to write a web api for the game to use
what kind of a game would you make if you were born a nepobaby and had an easy mode life + guaranteed marketing from the pedo elite mainstream medias?me a CRPG, kinda like bg3 but without the faggot shit with poe2 itemization and crafting, it's kinda my dream game even tough i hate this yt grifter term lol
Sometimes I wish I was able to convince my brain that I've made actual progress just by typing some shit into an LLM and hitting enter. My life would be so much simpler that way, I could go to bed every night feeling as if I accomplished something.It's like how I feel a strange sense of jealousy for the people who go to every single Marvel movie and have the time of their lives doing so. Life must be so easy for them.
I been running windows 7 ultimate in a VM, to test that the engine build and run on windows 7 seeing as they trying to drop that now, and damn the windows 7 looks soooo much better than 10/11 like its not even funny. 7 is beautiful AF why'd they make the OS go down hill?
>>537527625A baldur's gate 1 clone set in my homebrew world that I used to run dnd in
>>537527759They just follow design trends mindlessly, back in the 7 days it was aero and glassy glossy shit, these days the trend is flat simple minimalism so they did that aswell. They were always retarded and mindless to be desu, it's up to you and me to design true soul.
>>537527696dude just blogpost whatever last thing you worked on was before signing off the the night and going to sleep that's what I do. IDK why you use LLMs though you'll probably end up disconnected from your work. when ya try something and figure it out yourself it feels good. I'm not surprised messing with LLMs leaves you to feel depressed because you're probably missing out on all those little dopamine hits you naturally get when you're figuring out how to do the next thing you want to do yourself. I seriously think that all this AI shit is overhyped and its basically just a distraction. If you go like me and do one thing after another you'll eventually get there you just have to how can you in the future build on top of what you're doing now.
>>537523412none of these are a good idea. instead you should just offer the user the options to type a number in. that's all you actually need. the engine you use doesn't limit you to those options, it gives you a parameter that will accept just about any number. just pass the user input into that method instead of coming up with a complex scheme to limit the user's options.inb4 but what if someone enters a stupid number?1. only power users will use the feature.2. it couldn't be dumber than 15 or 30.
>>537524173No one makes serious money with this hobvy you hear me? No one!
>>537523412do vsync or whatever its called and vsync intervals of 1, 2, 3, etc.interval of one means frame rate = refresh rate, intreval of two means frame rate = refresh rate / 2that way it'll max out at their monitor refresh rate by default, and then players can lower frame rate to meet performance needs.
i woke up into a series of annoying distractions and now i feel like doomscrolling this day away
>>537523412anything < 30 is bad.15 is almost unplayable if it affects your input as well, ESPECAILLY if the game has built-in frame lag like it renders frames in a pipeline where input->scriptlogic->phyiscs->gfx cardand its like>frame5: input5 script4 phsyics3 render2>frame4: input4 script3 physics2 render1>frame3: input3 script2 physics1>frame2: input2 script1and you cap frame rate to 15 then yeah that's totally unplayable.I'd say just have a tickbox for capped and uncapped. and capped is 60. because who actually uses frame rate capping? people with gaming laptops that are capable of 120hz or more might like to use it while they are on battery, and that's it. right?
I never understood why indies don't try to make more multiplayer games. Not MMOs, but just implement online multiplayer. Zoomer and twitchslop love playing fun quirky shit with their friends. And no, Netcode isn't that difficult there's so many techniques to study just don't be retarded.
3 days till demon days !https://youtu.be/3GwjfUFyY6M?t=17
If I had all the skills of the anond who posted here I still couldn't make minesweeper from scratch
>>537523412vsync will sync to monitor or make monitor sync with game(if using adaptative)for unsynced capping, an option is to let the user type whatever he wants. less work and more freedom
I wish I could make video game like this, but I don't have the art part of it locked in, I can't do 3D models and I can't do animationHow do I solve this problem?
>>537527782never played bg1, did it age well gameplay wise?
>>537529921make a different game I guess
>>537528485>>537528813>>537529076>>537529530Thanks for the feedback. I don't want to make an entirely new UI element with the text thing so i just copied my resolution dropdown and repurposed it to set a frame cap. I was just wondering if I should add higher options than 60fps, I assume anybody with a monitor with a higher refresh rate can just set the cap to whatever the refresh rate it is. 15fps mode is mandatory for that genuine PSX experience though.
>>537529921doing 3D models is actually not that hard.but appeasing zesty topology niggers and animating them is hardtexturing is even harder
>>537529921curious why do you wish to make basic shit anyone could make since 2005? do you not have an ounce of creativity in your body?not only that but you're too retarded to loop up blender tutorials on youtube
>>537530000Yes, it's solid even now, because adnd 2e was a solid system. Good exploration, too.
>>537530229>loop up
>>537529921Make games that you CAN make at the moment. Sell them, and then use the money to make the game you want
>>537529196Because netcode is difficult.
>>537530369Well, then it has to be a game without so called graphics, simple shapes moving around only>>537529196same, multiplayer is literally money magnet
>>537530217psx is 20 or 30 though
Only trans devs can gmi
>>537530571Where is your game?
working on the menu and options. also a sneak peak of some of the game's schizophrenia.
>>537530648I'm an activist now
>>537530554I think it depends on the game, in this case I'm making a king's field clone and it ran at 15fps average.

Vibe coders. do you have chatgpt work in unreal? how does it go? I heard that unreal is basically the worst environment to use an agent, but I'm still curious.
>>537530869I dont use vibe coding, instead I use image generators to generate pictures of blueprints layouts that'll do what I want.then I have to manually create the blueprints in unreal to match the generated image.
>>537530686looks transcoded
Asking chatgpt to make a pong game is like asking it to read the alphabet and then saying I know the alphabet.
>>537530369NTA but that will take too long, especially if the world ends before i can make my true game. also it seems very unlikely that in the future i will have dramatically faster production just from having money from previous sales. the bottleneck is income and comissions, but i am not broke yet so it's really just the second one.
making a game that means being a broke "developer"
>>537530686Kino.
>>537530869It goes well. I have a garbage bin full of maggots and I ask it questions. If the maggots twist more clockwise its a yes, otherwise its a no. Honestly the best AI I have seen so far.
>>537530686Your game still feels too much like most unity games. I don't get it, do you all use the same character controller code or what? Not trying to be rude but I can even feel it through the webm. The crosshair in particular is what feels like I've seen it before hundreds of times.
>>537522614i always simulate dice rolls. I feel like if someone cant play my game sitting down at a rpg table I've failed as a designer.
>>537531119I've been doing landscaping to afford things I like doing boy work even tho I'm a girl because I can do everything they can
>>537531135maggots smell awful so your sense of smell must be completely dead.
>>537530539>simple shapeYou got mixamo, you got tutorials on youtube to implement basic PRE MADE animation to your script. Nigga this shit is easier than making a whole inventory system from scratch.
>>537530971thats a neat idea but I hate jewprints.
>>537531513I know mixamo solves animation problem, but not the art creation problem, I'm bad at 3D modeling

I've been working for almost 5 hours and I'm only halfway done with the work I intended to finish yesterday.Anyway, back to work, I just wanted to let you know.
>>537531232the crosshair is Unity's default dot icon lol.character controller is a kinematic one I made a while ago, but there's only so much you can do to make basic walking feel unique.
>>537531823Ì am an expert on that topic
HOLY FUCKING SHIT
>>537531823the mentality that creates druglords and cartels.
I'm not a kid no more, I'm not doing games
>>537506035Friendly reminder:These studios are doing this to generate views on their game and not because they are worried their game will sell badly because of Silksong.
>>537528813vsync and framerate limit are two different things with two different purposes. vsync is about stopping tearing. it limits framerate as a side effect. a framerate limit without vsync allows tearing but can optimize input lag by preventing the CPU from preparing more frames than the GPU can pump out.
