Kasha recap post.I have this catgirl character named Kasha who I want to use in a number of game projects. I've been building a universe with her since I was in junior high - I think I've had this character for about 24 or 25 years by now. She is a small catgirl with a magic shapeshifting tail who likes playing ball games and lives with a giant tiger woman named Milchi.I have a bunch of Kasha projects being made.. Don't know which to focus on. Wish I could just focus on my fighting game. But I know that if I don't focus on making and releasing a game as complete as I can make it then my fighting game has no hope of being good.I have three projects with my catgirl in various states of development.Kasha vs Kritters - arcade style game about defeating enemies, actively in development, several levels and enemies are made already.Hole-in-Nyan - 3D PS1-style minigolf game, prototype made godot. Trying to figure out how to proceed, want to learn 3D gamedev pipeline.Untitled Kasha "Big Platformer" - this one's a larger game. It is an action platformer in the style of Super Mario World where Kasha treks around the country in search of her mama and meets several adoptive mamas. It's a big classic adventure where she turns her tail into stuff.https://psychojosh.itch.io/kasha-catcha - Tiny gamejam game I made with Kasha/Milchi.https://psychojosh.itch.io/kasha-vs-kritters-alpha-demo - Demo of KVK.
Now that I have scared away all of the nodevs, you'd better post some serious progress in the latest organized Demo Day.>>538094861Neat.
>>538094441kino, if only the dev wasnt a skitzo
Total tranny death
>>538095182I exude Denis Dyack-esque energy most would find disturbing.
XHE won, we all have to kneel
Bart silksonThats it. Thats the meme
https://itch.io/jam/agdg-demo-day-64/rate/3078532Updated the demo to increase difficulty. My suspicions were right, the game is too easy and skill ceiling too low. I'll have to work on the latter after DD is done.
>>538095639you exude autist virgin mutt energy
>6 animes and a furry
>>538095758so this is what you did instead of setting up a collab huhfygoon predicted this btw
>>538095758skill ceiling is more about giving the player tools to work with than making the game harder, you just need a lot of room for improvement and for that improvement to feel satisfying
>>538095991You exude loser living in his mama's basement energy that everyone finds disturbing.
>>538096062so huh the jenny dev was a shartdew modder huh? >>538082552i knew he was more histrionic than the usual whodev
>want to make eroge>terrible at illustratingwhat if I make a text based simulator like DoL?
>>538096248you will call me loser but you will never call me wrong
>>538096348You are wrong.
>>538095639wow this looks bad>>538096348you're wrong
overworld with a number of dungeons, like zeldaordungeon, after dungeon, after dungeon, like gauntlet?
>>538096471nah
>>538096307that mod is fanart
>>538096564depends on the feel you're aiming for, overworld is a lot more adventure-y but a series of dungeons can work depending on what's going around thematically
Reminder that Fygoon threads usually get deleted by jannies and you should all know better than to post in one>>538096468>>538096468>>538096468
>>538096616damn that crazy if true
>>538094441It's me or demo day is dying? Less and less new games and comments...
>>538096734Reminder that the only reason why these threads get deleted is because of losers like you who can't stand to see me make a thread.
bnnuy
bro i did 3 prompts, wtflike seriously im worried about getting too used to claude code and then they turn it off, i dont want to go back to writing boilerplate and tests myself
>>538097304why would anyone want to watch a cinematic instead of playing the game
>>538097304kino and GMI energy if im being honest
>>538097304Man it's crazy that people still use poonity after what they did, no wonder politicians get away with murder.
>>538097304
no comment
>>538097797I've never met a lizard fag that wasn't an annoying autist on the internet
>>538097991What's with all the dirt specks?
>>538097216/agdg/ is reclining...
>>538098623reclining in my chair
>>538098623i look like this
I only started work on my game only 3 weeks ago and don't have enough of a prototype for this demo day.Really wanted to have a working prototype but as it stands there's basically no game to my game.
>>538099498Post it anyways. You should have seen what I was hocking during my first go.
Gun to your head:If you dont make 3 games before december i will find you and kill you
>>538096314At that point just write a book.
Alice game versus Blackwell game, who is the better roguelike?
>>538096314Just learn to draw, retard.
>>538101010Narnia game.
>>538101162that's traced from a real pic btw
>>538096314what's DoL
>>538101382True, I'm the guy in the picture btw.
For those who've downloaded shrimp game in the last 5 or so hours, disregard that build. It was a debug build that only had one dungeonCarry on anons
>>538100768books aren't INTERACTIBLE>>538101162don't have the time to seriously practice as of now at least, the hope would be for volunteer artists to take interest like what happened with DoL modding>>538101494mostly text-based rape victim / orphan sim, I'd probably go for the inverse since there's a billion eroge where you play as a girl and get fucked
>>538097241I honestly couldn't care less but you are in a constant state of ban evasion so I fully expect the threads you make vanish at some point
>the hope would be for volunteer artists to take interest do codemonkeys really?
>when you see a game that's a fraction of what you want to make and it's been 10 years in the making and is still in a pre-alpha state
>>538102610subhuman """""""artists""""""" be like:>I WANT RECOGNITION AND POPULARITY AND ALSO BEING PAID BILLIONS WITHOUT ACTUALLY HAVING A HISTORY/RESUME THAT WILL BACK ME UP AS RELIABLE AND NOT LAZY WORKER!!!
>>538102610my real game has soulful coder art but that doesn't fly with eroge, anyways crab show your game blah blah blah
uh oh , codeschizo melty
>>538103549You want to get raped, bitch? Wanna be fucked in ass and cummed inside?
>>538103006Peripeteia?
Why does the pixel game have the Mother 3 font? Does it look weird to you as well?
>>538094441this is what agdg devolved to? pinball equivalent and low Iq "games"? You zoomers make me fucking laugh, hilarious how low iq you are.also, krample is a pedo faggot lol

how's the demoday 64 fanart compilation going?
Alot of these demo days game pages need to have a video or atleast picture showing gameplay. Im looking at the page for Dark Grace and all I can see 3 pictures of hallways and one of the picture has a knight to the side.The info shows there's combat, inventory, items, weapons and a mysterious plague but i dont see it. No video at all just a download button. I know devs here know what a good game page looks like, why ignore that important part of marketing?

Dog ai was too buggy for multiplayer so i opted to just making it a glorified sprint.
>>538108523why would anyone play this over onirism
>>538108523Nice, the dog spawning animation looks clean.
>>538104245yes. I hate that shit. make font tiles nigga. find a font you like. type the alphabet out on notepad or whatever, sceenshot that shit and open it up in your art program, cut them letters up and scale to your tile size and trace/tweak. then write a system to take text and display your tiles.
>>538108713Where's my fanart tho? You still haven't drawn me fanart
How many AI voice actings am I allowed to use before the Agdg discort bans me?It can't be 0
>find artist on bsky that's way better than me>also 8 years younger than me so I can't cope with "I'm still learning"
>>538109634You do know you can just kill him, right?
>>538109634I used to be one of those young artists better than artists 10 years older, but then I got 10 years older too and the level of skill of young artists got even higher. maybe they are all cheating nowadays, damned kids!
>>538109634It's tough but you probably can draw well enough to make a game while AI will make artists obsolete now/soonish depending how one looks at it both 2d and 3d while jack of all trades types those who know enough but don't have enough practice are the meek who inherit the earth we'll just grow stronger as they rope.
>>538108523why would anyone play this over square hooligans?
I miss making games with you lads, now I just waste my days doing nothing at all.
>>538109634Tolkien didn't write The Hobbit until he was in his late thirties. The story was shit, sure, but it did irreversible damage to fantasy writing as a whole.
>>538110980tolkien was a nepobaby though
>random NPC's design is more appealing and popular then the main character
>>538111176>then
>>538103426I just want someone who can do storyboarding and deliver

The recent Bundev writings might be fake or directed at someone. Strange way to communicate if so.
I hope bunposter is ok
>>538114738he has terminal cancer...
>>538114978no I believe
>>538114257>play game trailer on its Steam page>camera is erratic because he recorded it with his mouse and not a ControllerWHADDYOUWANTFROMME!!??
>>538110980I put the blame on Alexandre Dumas. Tolkien was pretty based even if his most popular stories are hollywood tire on the surface.
>>538115147LOWER THE SENSITIVITY BITCH. IT'S YOUR GAME
>>538115271>pc inputs but the camera is so slow?
It was a bad idea to not reschedule DD64 after Silksong's release announcement
>>538115491Didn't you hear? Everyone here hates Silksong anyway, so it never mattered
>>538115552I like it. my next game will be a silksong-like but with harder platforming so exploration is a pain, and bosses will kill you in only 3 hits.
>>538115095Based bunny dev grinding cold baths.
is ultima an immersive sim
>>538094441I'll stream some games later when people woke up.
>>538119964WOKE?!?!
What game should i play
>>538120112wokeslop
>>538120112something that's not mobilecoded or consolecoded
Bros, I don't see a world where the dev bends over and gives us a bigger font...
>>538120576transcore...
unity takes fucking ages to load a project and constantly crashes but it has good assets so I guess it's better than godot
What do you call this type of water in games? A "Water Material" or "Water Shader"? I keep getting confused on which term is more appropriate to say or are they interchangeable?
>>538094441guy making the godhand-like here. Haven't posted in ages but I've been working the entire time, just not on "fun to look at" things.>made my own pathfinding system that's super light. No nav meshes or nav agents.>switched enemy rigs to AutoRig Pro (protagonist still on Rigify, I'll get back to that)>systemized movelist creation so now I just drag and drop saved moves onto an enemy and it'll automatically load up the animations and have all the relevant data>adding/removing moves is dynamic, as it automatically updates the enemy's movelist>moves have a weight: the higher the weight, the more likely the move will be usedCan't show much because I changed the design of the enemies and I feel it's kino now. Don't want someone faster to copy their design y'know.Anyway I will now, completely unprompted, shill autorig pro:>the exporting phase isn't complete fucking tortureThat would have been enough, but it's actually really good. Just one click and the super complex rig is game-ready and in Godot immediately.>IK and FK switch doesn't make me want to contemplate murderAgain just that would have been a huge improvement over Rigify, but it goes beyond and has an amazing IK-FK switch.>has a control for closing and opening the fistI kneel.Yes yes it's paid, but damn it's worth it. Goes on sale a couple times a year, watch out for it, I recommend it.If I had to nitpick, I preferred Rigify's feet controls.
>>538120865Assets like what?If you mean 3D assets then those are only good for prototyping
How do people normally add a body to pathfinding in godot? So the thing like doesnt choose the shortest path possible because it doesn't have any width or height so like half of it's body is behind navigation map?
>>538120937Interchangeable, but shader is the technically correct term.
>>538094861>Muscle girl x loli pairThis is good and I hope the best comes for you.
>shitsong is only 83% positive>the devs still made 20 million each yesterdaycapitalism truly is clown shit
>>538123481Theres a point where too much media coverage will draw people who won't like your game. There's nothing you can do about it and at the end of the day if its good enough and the game sells then its a win.
>>538122570What the hell are you talking about?
>>538121316I've bought one of these blender addons before, the problem with them is the same as with godot addons; blender updates so fucking often that it's out of date immediately. Coincidentally it was a script that ripped out the DEF bones and put them in their own skeleton to make exporting to godot easier and I can't even remember what version of blender it was for anymore.
>>538094441Why is there 2 thre->one is filled with toxic whodev pajeets talking to they/themselves>the other filled with real discussion and comfy anons doing mild jokesAh i see now
>>538108523Looks very polished already
>538124318This retarded subhuman tranny seriously thinks a faggoon thread is good.
>>538124138This one's popular enough that it'll get updated, plus you're not forced to update Blender.In any case you do you
>>538120937Not interchangeable. If it moves or deforms the vertices then it has to be a shader. Materials can't deform vertices.
>>538121357For me, it's unreal. I don't need unity assets but I need game logic plugins.
>>538124819Interesting, what kind of logic plugins does UE offer?
>>538121316I have no real interest in the gameplay but the title is so legendary that I am glad someone is attempting to continue it's legacy
>>538124940Thanks anon. The biggest hurdle so far is making a shitton of animations but I'm getting there
Made some progress, the portal now actually leads somewhere. Testing out some ideas for the area on the other side of the portal
>>538094861Not a fan of your style but I am a fan of the autism >>538124876Turn based stuff. Particularly tactical likes that offer free roam. Also I use quite a few of its animation tools. I guess the biggest issue is that unreal plugin parallel compatibility is a mess since you have blueprints and c++. Ime a codelet though so.
>>538125391I learned to code in a year. Can't picture myself ever getting into blueprint, that whole logic gate shit filters me hard.Code is so fucking easy. Just learn it dude
Looking at silksong reviews it really feels like they didn't test balance, difficulty or progression systems at all. Its good to know even people that made it screw up these things.
HAVE YOU EVER GAMEDEVIN WITH YOUR LIFE ON THE LINE!!!???
>>538125319ludo
>>538125319reminds me of woodpecker
>>538126213>my wifeoh nice
>>538125847feels like they tested it with hollowknight nohit speedrunners and spent the whole dev cycle looking for ways to screw them. >you thought that level was too easy? try it now...>JAJHAHAHH GOTTEM!!! YOU NEVER SAW THAT TRAP COMING LLALAAALALA
>>538125847>>538129049that's based. Hollow Knight gets piss easy by the end when you've basically mastered the movement and combat. I'm glad they kept building up the formula instead of leaving it to stagnate
>>538125319Very nice
Am I correct in understanding that I can use SubscribeStar for a 2D loli erotic visual novel using AI generated art as long as I dont actually post any loli content to SS and link everything offsite?
>>538129229being difficult isn't necessarily good game design or a new formula. it's a bit cringe sensing the developers hand so much instead of being immersed in the world.
>>538129743The game is more complex and demanding, which is fine after Hollow Knight. It would have been worse if they didn't advance in any way since Hollow Knight was already too basic
>>538129743I think the game should just have a difficulty setting
>>538126565>>538129494thanks!>>538128789you can see it if you search hard enough
>>538129880I was against a difficulty setting in sekiro, but I'd accept one in silksong.
>>538129049>>538129743>Game is hailed to high heaven for never bending to anyone, not fans wanting an early release, not Netflix asking for a show, not concernfags asking for a $25 price>2 days later fans desperately want the team to bend over and lower the damagelol
>>538094441what is nortubel up to?
>>538129947
>>538094441@max sternmake the silksong like collab
>>538131317>Game is hailed to high heaven for never bending to anyonereal in your head?
>>538129049nigga its day 2
>>538129865it didn't advance it, it just changed focus to action instead of rewarding exploration. you can play silksong for 15 hours and find nothing of note in terms of upgrades or anything.
>>538131636Anons clapped at the sight of this, at least 30 threads that day. The difficulty is just the dark side of the unbudging developer.
PLAY MY GAME BLOODY BASTARD
>>538131836oh that, I thought you meant hoards of people begged for an easy mode in hollowknight or something.
>>538131432
you just hate hollow knight cause its a little white guy like me and not a nepobaby made dark skin DEI protagonist tough
>you didnt submit your game hour 1 of day 1? good luck getting any play and comments as people burn out from playing the same gamesCan we address this problem?
>>538133239if your game was cooler then people would want to play it
>>538133292Fuck you crab.
>>538125847Considering how mainstream the game is at least 80% of the players have an IQ in the double digits. Hard to take feedback from the average gamer seriously when it comes to things like challenge and progression.
Update about the rpg with genshin aesthetics I'm making. Shits hard. Scope's too big. But I slog
>>538131530I simply cannot imagine waking up in the morning in order to work on an inferior copy of an existing game for years on end. And why is it always a platformer or metroidvania? It's part of the gamer midlife crisis starter kit at this point.
>>538134145>I simply cannot imagine waking up in the morning in order to work on an inferior copy of an existing game for years on end.99% of devs do this tough
>>538134145playing silksong got me itching to make an action platformer albeit... like play as Ibuki from sf3 but run around snapping niggas necks to kill them etc

Why are there 2 aggy threads?
>>538140430one is made by a tranny.one is made by a resident schizo fuck
>>538142072How big is the tranny's dick and how racist/antisemitic is the schizo? That'll decide which thread we should use.
>>538125319Nice.>>538121316Oh shit! It's good to see you again and I am glad that you are still making progress.
Is this a Crislike?
Is there a reason why I shouldn't make slop? Balatroslop, specifically.

>>538138750Delelele Wooop or something
YOOOOOOOOOOO SILKSONG IS A FVARKING MASTERPIECE
>>538106293you have a point anon. i have no idea what im doing desu. truth is i never started making this game with the goal of selling it. it's also very early in development and so many things are subject to change that i dont even know what to put there yet. even the itch.io plot is a very loose idea of what i want.
>>538145156I use talking animals as a commentary on racism without offending either side of the political spectrum. How I lean personally is not your concern.
>>538103951https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1PgH0vAKzQ
>>538158671Also, looking at that and some other games, allow me to throw up some thoughts that you can all readily shoot down if they sound wrong. So is it a thing where the way that people bullshit colossal maps with regard to space travel is generally via instancing out of the atmosphere into a separate map via a locked in "jumping to hyperspace" loading screen and having a slanted scale where movement is actually very stilted, but it's made to seem fast via things like speed lines? So you can have a relatively small map instead of something with coordinates in the billions? Am I missing something?
>try the UE5 Lyra demo game>PC is too much of a toaster to even run it at lowIf the intent is that I should abandon UE5 for something that actually understands where priorities should lie, I'm starting to get that message.
you are offered two choices and one optional luck-based strat in this lifea) late stage "capitalism/socialism/corporatism whatever that system is" induced depressionb) risking becoming homeless only doing what you feel like at any given moment (homelessnes might be avoidable with neetmaxing, although that could be cut off at any moment if some government worker decides so)c) being a nepobaby
>>538165870I mean you can just start from a blank project adn turn off a bunch of the stuff that makes UE5 require more processing/gpu resources.It's more or less what I did.
I went to video game design school, son.

There's still time left so far nobody's gone for it, though there was some mix-ups with the threads. If you added it to your game, let me know again.Demo Day 64 is here, and you'd like to get something back from all your hard effort. I will make a generous donation to your demo if you add a screen at the beginning that says "I'm a farty fart man with a big smelly butt that smells like farts". It must be unskippable and stay present and visible for at least 5 seconds.Note that for any qualifying games I'll be waiting a week to make sure you don't just immediately replace it.I don't want to list an exact amount, because a game where it really doesn't fit in, or going "the extra mile" (fart noises in your soundtrack, especially in a serious game, things like that) will be rewarded more heavily.Life handed me some bounty with Bitcoin and GME, so I'm more than happy to "give a little back" ;)Humiliate yourself for money.>How do I sign up?Just add what I said to your game, and post in the thread at some point: "I'm a farty fart man with a big smelly butt that smells like farts" with a link to your game. I have something that will be looking for exactly that phrase.Add additional notes if you have any such as "I added a fart sound to my music" and how it can be heard for verification.

Reminder that a game can be made in less than 70 loc>>538096734I don't think this thread is breaking any rules so I'll post in it>>538097304interesting ...
>>538225705What does 70 loc mean?
>>538225786loc means lines of code
>>538225916your game will be done in 10 yod (years of development)
>>538226034My single-room single-player offline MUD is already finished in under 70 loc.But maybe I'll keep adding expansion packs to the base game. Like more than one room.
>>538225160based monkey
>>538224984>>538225024seethethe code is easily manageable, I just don't feel like coding this game myself
>>538225705brings me back memories of making a text adventure in xna as a kid lol
I'm trying to think of ways to make it easier to tell which character is speaking, besides just the name at the top of the textbox. I'm thinking either (1) a small picture of the speaking character's head near the textbox or (2), a small triangle at the top of the namebox that points to the speaking character, almost like a speech bubble. Any suggestions?I guess another option would be to brighten the speaking character and darken all the others, but I'm worried it might get jarring, switching all the time.
>>538225178why are you making a popeyes game cris
>>538227017I like the original.
>>538226716nigga how can you not look at the billions of games that solved this issue instead of having some kind of analysis paralysis, alsohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMyvIDLAub8

>>538225916>>538225786Lines of Color
>>538227220I've looked at a few different games. Tales of Symphonia does something kind of similar to picrel (which is basically (2) in my other post). The only problem is, in Tales of Symphonia, the speech bubble is always above the character, so they can move the triangle around freely. In my game, the textbox is always going to be in the same spot. I could maybe combine the two: put the triangle on top of the namebox, and then slide the namebox around the top of the textbox so it always points to whoever is speaking. But I'm sure there are other options.

>>538230781looks pretty good but idk about the arms being the same palette, having it be a different standout color would help imo, you should try it

I spent years working on my roblox game and made thousands of dollars from it, but nobody wants to hire me :(
>>538226716Did you try color-coding the text for each character?
>>538231559Glad I said "fuck it" and submitted to the last one.
>>538231771I think the arms will be shiny black, if I can figure out a shader to get them dripping/trailing tar that'll be cool.

Good morning friends. I'm new, going for a Dungeon Keeper / idle game kinda thingie. I'm a week into the project. C++/OpenGL, my own graphics code.
>>538234951Oh, word? In that case maybe you could have the important characters have colored dialog and everyone else just use white.Just spitballing.>>538235030Technical debt? What do you mean?

>>538241470That's a bit harder for me to do, since I'm only using 16 colors (although technically there are a few places in the game where I'm using transparency, so I'm kind of cheating). But I like the icons. I'll make a few more and post them here to see what everyone thinks.

procrastinating all day just to crank out a super productive 3-5 hour work session before i go to sleep feels like goku charging up a spirit bomb right before the bad guy's about to destroy an innocent village or some shitwhy does this feel so intuitive?i won't change, because i'm still meeting my productivity goalsit just feels correct to reserve my energy for the final possible momentthis even worked when i was studying in college, although due to the increased workload, i just had to end my procrastination a bit earlier something about enjoying life while you can, and leaving the work for when it's undeniably critical, just feels rightthe only time i can't do this is when i'm creating assets, since the artistic process takes long as fuck if you actually care about the quality of your workbut for everything else, so far, this just works
>>538253445basedgood luck with development, i hope you have fun and are proud of your game when it finishespost progress when you can, your game seems interesting
>>538253601I will, thanks. Ideas on name or gameplay ideas welcome btw
>>538254368all of my games have horrible names, sadly i can't help you therebut for game ideas, one thing i've recently noticed, which is embarrassing to admit - but my cope is that i mainly stuck to pvp games - is that people really love the process of earning resources through action, and spending it on progressive upgrades to increase their ability to earn said resourceswhatever earn -> spend cycle you can come up with, would likely make the game very enjoyable to playas for the game theme, core identity, name, story, etc, i'll leave that up to you
AI voice acting is the future of indie games. You either accept it, or get left behind and get assraped. That's all the options you have.
>>538255971fomo tactics huh
>>538255971https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ljwbqHSn6rw
One meaningful task. Every single day.One productive session. Every single day.One thing. Every single day.

Dark Grace:Combat too slow, animations too slow, too little freedom, feels badway too much bloomno window size optionnice textures and modelssound effects too loud
>>538257640Good point. I'm currently at a phase in development where my work is highly technical, and less creative. It's easy for me to get distracted with other activities, or to simply be lazy, and let a day go by. If I'm not careful, I can let multiple days go by, and when I return to working on my game, the process doesn't feel as good.To remedy this, I try to ensure I do at least one small task per day. Even if it's as simple as making a minor tweak to a UI element, or an asset, or modifying an audio file, or even just reviewing and making changes to my notes relating to the game, it adds up in the long run. Sometimes I'll have weeks where each day, I only do minor tweaks. After this period, my energy is built up, and I have enough time to devote myself to a couple large work sessions. Without the daily minor tasks, the large sessions wouldn't have been as productive.I think your point is valid, but me prioritizing at least one task per day definitely helps me stay on track when I get distracted or have low periods.
>>538256714it's taken me three days to knock off one thingand that was just changing the normals on grass, which I couldn't figure how to do without either the "point at" which wasn't 100% accurate, and I didn't like, or some add-on, which I don't like(I just copy and pasted the vectors from an upwards-facing plane in the end)and every time I got frustrated (within 2 minutes) I'd instinctively grab the vape or start up some game or go downstairs for a snackI've been doing this for yearshaha!
>>538258317Do you have deadlines? If not, relax. Enjoy the process. At least you're doing something.If you do, then that's big trouble. You might need to lock in.
>>538258397no deadlines, but I don't think I'm exactly at "just enjoying it" pace either. one thing a day is the goal, I'm maybe getting one thing a week/every other weekwanna be my boss? I can't pay you sorry

Winds of Valor- no control scheme shown, took me a while to guess F (nice meme btw)- graphics are really terrible in fullscreen, keep these 80s boomer games in windowed mode- even ultima had animated water- changing mode in combat is jarring- soulful, but fix the faces of the human sprites, dont have black gap pixels in them
Project King- very bare bones so hard to review- soulful ancient boomer rpg- differences in texture resolutions is really really jarring-no sound - no control scheme, but guessing E is much better than F >>538262370- skill points reset when you spend more than the last point- terrible turn rate and movement speed

>>538276851Unlike most of these developers, I like to make content just for threads instead of cucking myself by posting another man's game.The other, inferior thread's OP has fuck all to do with game development community on this site.
What to do when my current prototype feels too close to the gameplay loop of the game it's cloning? I want to do something different but the original mechanics feel the best.
>>538277053what steps have you taken to, you know, produce things?
>>538277180Just make the story completely different, like how Rare basically makes better versions of Nintendo games (see Banjo-Kazooie, Dinosaur Planet, Kameo). If you can't do that, embrace the fact it's a clone: Gameloft did that with Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance and it was pretty good.Kalus's ass for visibility.

Am I missing something or is Godot's tile operation logic extremely slow on top of having to deal with local coordinates vs map coordinates for quadrant? It's like this system was made by someone who never used tiles or am I missing something? I already checked the forums, reddit and stackoverflow and they all go unanswered
Alright.

Any ideas?
>>538280605there will never be a good prebuilt tile "package" because the concept of a tile is so vague and needed for like 12 different game genres.Make the 2d array and get coding little shrimp.

>>538286060You don't have good garbage collection and fail to optimize your game.
>>538281982Doesn't work. People either refuse to keep playing the game, or else will hold onto the grudge the entire game and interpret literally everything from the lens of the grudge.I might sound bitter, but I swear I'm not. It was a learning experience watching it happen.
>>538280621Confused that flips your controlsYou could make poison the generic DoT and instead bleeding would cause damage when you attack or move too fast.Feared extends recovery frames from certain actions, like missing an attack.Tired makes things "lag" or randomly speed up, for example an enemy can start its attack animation, but the first half will be slower and second half will be faster, catching you off guard. Same with movement.
>>538281982>>538286448You could try making them show humanity, like after going off on you, they can say "I don't recognize you" or "you've changed since something happened", sowing seeds of doubt that maybe the player character is in the wrong.But yeah if you want to make an asshole then it's gonna be hard. It's in your best benefit to make the switch sooner than later. Famous "bad to good" characters tend to do the swap within 1-2 episodes.
>>538244786I went into that night beaten down, depressed, and feeling absolutely defeated due to a lack of progress. By being persistent and using the AI to aid me in scripting, I basically managed to get an entire system implemented.Ah hell. I did the Codex Gigas thing, didn't I?
>>538284982I hate how many posters in here this represents it actually hurts
>>538286448Douchebag characters transforming into heroes only really works for male characters. Kratos (the original one, not the crappy one that completely butchers his character), Kain, Fygoon, every single one of them begins as an arrogant fool until a great failure causes them to seek redemption. In general, that's just how men operate: our greatest opportunity to see success comes only after a catastrophic failure.Women, on the other hand, are supposed to be the supporters to the journey of Man: they should seek to help us to improve and become better. When a woman is a cunt, that just sours her character because she is no longer a supporter, but an enemy that must be destroyed. Now, there is a fine line between making a woman character stern yet still supportive and just making her unlikeable, so be mindful of that line.
>>538287662kys
>>538287662Thought I'd also add that, with most of the douchebag turned heroic characters, it would be beneficial to show that there is a glimmer of good embedded deep within them, protected by a shell of arrogant cynicism. With that, you should explore what caused one to turn from the light: perhaps it is his legacy that shackles him into appearing as a hardened, uncaring lord, or maybe someone in their life hurt him and corrupted them into who he is now.Simply put, make the character complex, don't give him the simple personality of a cardboard cutout of a character. Explore what makes your character tick, and if you need inspiration, take a look at some of the people in your life - anybody can be a muse if looked at with the right lens.

It's always there, they developed as part of socializing with one another.They don't become fully bitter assholes like males can be, and as a result cannot change their ways out of it either. People will just know she is a bitch and by the end of the story she feels less bitchy, but that's just because of her mood, not because of who she is inside.

Anyone looking for an artist? I'm finishing up some projects and will have time for something, would like to get more into gamedev. Most of my experience is with 2D (trad and digital) but I've done some 3D modeling.Still putting together a portfolio and anyhow there's a lot of trolls in these threads. If you're interested, let me know a little about your game (genre, style, engine, scope: like 6months vs 5 years, commercial/hobby, etc) and we can see if it would be a good fit and we can connect off-site.
>>538294515lol
>>538296681Sorry I'm not interested in using [inserted engine here]. I hope you understand.
>be me>work on game for nearly 2 years>slowly fight my way to 5k organic wishlists from absolutely nothing>choose september 30th as launch date>steam decides to have an "autumn sale" on september 29th, one day before my release>I am now competing against every AAA game ever made being sold for 90% offIt's been real friends but I fear it is officially over for me. Maybe I will have better luck with my next game.
>>538297728Work a little harder and release it on September 28th
>>538297873I think one day before would actually be worse than one day after. Either way, I'm not going to be moving the date as I like the way 9/30/25 looks
>>538297728that damn autumn happening just after summer, if only you had some way to predict that
I think the idea of a game only having success at launch is cope. You can make multiple marketing runs and if they aren't giving you anything more than at launch then most of the people that actually wanted to play your game already bought it and you're coping that something else stole your players
>>538298230Yeah Steam has the same sales every year around the same date
>>538297728Double down and also release on -90% sale
>>538298230>>538298424If you exclude sales, next fests, seasonal fests, maintenance outages, genre fests, there are about 3 or 4 days where an "optimal" launch could occur. It's pointless to plan around Steam's weird schedule. If people like a game they will buy and play it. Simple as.
>>538298624Triple down and make it such that people must pay a premium outside of sales periods.
>>538298624I am doing a 20% launch discount, I'm also not pricing my game at 14.99 because I think that's a bit pretentious for an amateur solo dev such as myself
>>538298745the steamworks dashboard has a calendar showing you exactly all the events that are going to happen one year in advance, it's the first thing you see
>>538298947It seems that you had a hard time reading my post, I don't fault you for that but I do wish you success in your ongoing quest to learn how to read.
>>538289898Go to Hell.
>>538289898pedo freak, leave
>>53829892320% on launch is good decision for Steam.
>>538286309already got brutally mogged by arctic eggs
>>538299471We will see, my demo only has 6 minutes of content yet has an average playtime of nearly an hour among nearly 2000 unique players. I'm hoping that trends continues and I can see an average playtime of 10-20 hours for the full game on release. Steam really likes seeing high average playtime so the algorithm may throw me a bone if I can reach that.
>>538289898diana....
guess no one is interested in working with an artist, just trying to troll me, I suppose I'll try again later

>>538317104tell chatgpt it made things worse
i realized why /agdg/ has fallen so lowback in the day we were forced to come here for coding advice and debugging. so one way or another we would post progress, even indirectly, in the attempt to fix our shitty functions, shaders, etcnow you just got AIs which can help you find bugs with decent prompts at 1% of the previous effort/waiting and with a highest success rate
>>538319335I only use AI when google AI pops up in my face and I try to go to documentation or forum posts first. I ask advice on here every couple weeks

>>538326638it's some sort of tranny? ftm or mtf? i never played the game but i remember the purple hair character with red jacket
i want to make a game but all game engines suck
>>538328382Then make your own.
>>538307352playing a game doesn't require a manual, so using a game engine shouldn't require reading documentation, you should be able to do things and they should work, why they don't is a mystery to me
>>538328539i don't know how to code, that's the point of using an engine, everyone likes to pretend it's easy but it's super jank

>>538330690who wants to read an entire manual just to do a specific thing, when the manual probably doesn't even cover that use case sense the engine is so modular and open ended
>>538231559there's been fanart for every DD for a while now.
I just want to make a game like CoD1, but larger battles and less linear maps.
>>538335469what have you made already?
>>538335639mostly RTS and tower defense stuff. my complete inability to make models and make good animations can be covered up a little that way.

>>538376737>mongol dev can hold down a steady job despite clearly being severely schizophrenicImpressive
>>538377926Just make the game according to your own vision. If you don't have a vision then why are you making a game at all?
>>538096314Are you good at writing? A text-only game like Corruption of Champions can definitely work and even become popular, but it seems most people who go that path vastly underestimate the amount of writing required to keep the player engaged long enough.DoL uses a dirty trick to avoid that. instead of writing all the sex scenes, the sex scenes are dynamically generated. This makes every sex scene technically unique with very little writing required, but they all start to feel the same.
>>538378815many are wishing this

>>538319335If I'm worried about bugs, I'll just go to /gedg/.
>>538357643Neat. Are you saving the descriptions as strings in the code or are you storing them somewhere? I never understood how games like this worked.>>538377754>Submitted by vahellis — 5 hours, 20 minutes before the deadlineOh shit.
>>538377926top down is always more pleasing.
>>538382691All the strings are part of the program. If the scope balloons (who knows?) I'd consider files.As you see in this image there are only 3 rooms and nothing interesting yet. I'm trying to pin down how I should structure the interactivity between game objects and commands. I think every interactable thing like people, items, etc. should have a list of possible commands and how they can be used. I'll need to think on it.I was looking at those old games source code like Zork and they do the same thing. Its not a lot of data so it makes sense.
>>538385137Ah, I see. Yeah, considering the games needed to be fast, tiny and be reasonably coded in a tiny monitor, it makes sense for them to just store data in the code.If interactables could just list what actions can be done on them, that would be some great quality of life. A simple "Talk Look Grab Combine" command list would be fine too, I guess, it makes the dev's work easier.

https://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/3tj0p4/last_year_my_best_friend_quit_his_full_time_job/imagine if hollow knight devs listened to the crabs and didn't make the game
>>538378503I'm a pretty solid writer and I'm good with engineering in terms of code, my main plan is to mash both of those together and make something like DoL's algorithmically generated sex scenes but more dynamic. It'll be way more writing than DoL and a lot of infrastructure work but should lend well to the simulator sort of thing I want to make and give a lot of replayability
>>538415537Only if it's in a homo erotic way.
>>538417976I'd advise against it, but I guess it doesn't matter. Keep in mind that DoL uses animation to make up for the repetitiveness of the sex scene.
how many linux niggas DONT use steam/proton?I use win32/dx11 and it's comfy but I worry about being 'boxed in' to windows even though my game runs fine on newer versions of proton. am I just neurotic?
>>538418640I can definitely see where you're coming from but I don't think my premise really works without some degree of dynamic generation, my plan to get around the repetition of it would be 1: making the writing a bit less dry than DoL's "you do x with y" and trying to minimize sections where it's just you and the npc doing the same thing 10 times in a row; 2: giving npcs traits that control what actions they lean towards, how they're described, etc.; 3: ideally having some system to concatenate actions together where appropriate to make things flow more dynamically and not just be presented as a list of statements; 4: maybe writing some randomly chosen alt lines for more variety if/where it seems necessary. That's all digging myself into an entirely different hole of having to write absolutely insane amounts of content for every possible interaction but I've done similar experiments in the past so I think it's possible if nothing else. It'll mostly be a matter of whether I can pace myself and fill things out as I go rather than try to make a ton of systems at once and get swamped in the amount of content I need to make at once. Anyways this is rambly as fuck but posting about it is helping me sort out how I'm going to organize this a bit
