Does your game make it worthwhile to fight enemies?
>>538477919No. Fighting is pointless.
reposting my garbage progressmeant as a prototype to what I eventually want to move to pure C, but I'm still too dumbhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNgyyd0Z2KAI'm better than FROSCH because I have better fundamentals and more mechanics, but I'm much much worse than FROSCH due to 1) using disgusting python, 2) using disgusting "Chat G P T"
I broke down and made a social media account for personal and maybe professional.I figure it will help me be more social and seen as less weird in college. Plus it'll motivate me to work so I will have art and gameplay to post.
Theme of my game-dev career:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jcg2Wtd4bM
>>538478014Cont. Fights create conflict which in turn fuel hate. Hate creates war which promotes the depreciation of civilization.
>>538478014damn mongol, if I wasn't schizophrenic I am now, after seeing this clip
shanari shanari oujosama
>>538477919yeah you get abilities from them
>>538477919I will take this over the Dead Cells formula where it's nothing but stunlocking fodder enemies.
>>538478612protip: make two, one for shitpostingyou're already doing well by keeping irl/4chan separate. In a very real way, this was a lesson taught by those early on the internet. Separate personal/business. Both are important, but compartmentalize. Of course the corpos and three-letters already have you connected
why didn't I think of this earlier
Hot take: "juice" is overrated. If you don't have fun underlying gameplay, all you're doing is polishing a turd. You can't trick players into having fun.
>>538479358Yeah, I've had personal and professional e-mails for years. I still hate the fact Instagram is owned by Meta.
>>538479548you're tricking players into thinking they aren't having fun if you have no juice
>>538479548all games are juice, gamba, and appeal
Express yourself too much and watch as the buyer betrays (You)
>>538478014the misery of agdg devsrustlike
anyone looking for an artist?
games are a hierarchy of thingsat the very bottom is the juice, like moleculesthe primary gameplay puts them together into strands of DNAwhich wrap into larger and larger outer loopsthe juice is the jumpthe gameplay loop is platformingthe secondary loop is levelsthe tertiary loop is worldsjuice is the little elements of interaction between the player and the gamethe gameplay loop is the action, the strategy, the dopaminethe secondary loop provides structure to a session of gameplaythe tertiary loop provides structure across sessions of gameplaythey are all important parts of a game
>>538479924Team Cherry forgot that despite the similarities, their players are not Dark Souls-fags. DSFags expect every game to be harder than the previous. Metroidvania players do not.
>>538480103Not really, but if you have a good 2D artstyle then you could collab for my doll game.
>>5384801032d or 3d?
>>538480421mostly 2d (trad and digital) but have done some 3D
>>538479548WTF is juice
I regret getting into gamedev.
>>538480184>>538479924Personally I think it's about Chinese relationship with difficulty (no gacha pay to win mode)
>>538479924>ZOMG CHAT, LOOK AT ALL THESE HECKIN HATERS I HATE GAMEDEV 5EVAR I'LL NEVER RELEASE MY GAME (that I haven't even started on btw) TO #GAMERS AGAIN
>>538481275>$36.6MDamncan you even imagine
>>538481275I don't get this attitude to be honest. I want my game to be good. I want it to be fine dining for people who want it. Eye opening for people first experiencing it, and comforting for people coming back. The idea that gamers and the like are the enemy I need to overcome is weird and alien to me. My biggest opponents are myself and my family. The former for being a wreck of hesitation and the latter for constantly using me as a support beam without letting me cultivate my own skills.Given the values I have instilled my game with, it would be ignoble to create them through ignoble behavior, since I would be weaving a story that has no real world currency even if it's fun, like modern trpgs
ok guys demo day ended but theres no fanart lets get this shit going but i only played 10% of the games so I dont know all the characters, any idea how to pick them?
>>538481429The first game is at 15 million copies. Silksong has had more hype for years.
I really need to kill every single /agdg/ poster.
>>538479924>Research suggests that from our 20s, reaction times slow by up to 6 milliseconds per decadesorry to the fans who were in their mid 30s when HK came out, this one is not for you.
>>538482171This but unironically. Most people are completely worthless.
You guys want a free game idea? Here you go. A true top-down (see pic) Disco Elysium-like. Except instead of being about politics and depression, it's a real murder mystery.

>>538479924One of the blogposts from Chris Z shows how some devs improved their demos rating by lowering difficulty. If your game is too hard it only appeals to small minority of people.

>>538482328Reaction time is useless.What matters in action games is muscle memory and prediction.A game that tests your biological limit on reaction timing is a trash game, but luckily most devs figured that one out.Watch this video if you don't want to be a bumbling moron who knows nothing about action games:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4du_rEB0M88

I'm currently working on making animations for all of Angelica's faces, here's the one for Holy Time.
Elden Ring was one of the best selling games of 2022 and everybody has been trying to copy Souls since 2014. It's not that your game is too hard, it's because your game sucks dick.
>>538488681ive never heard anyone say art is ok but VA is not, they are all for it or all against it
>>538482328I've gone back to games like dark souls and others I struggled with and they are trivial to me now. I've only gotten better at games but I have less patience

>>538489204True though. The character portraits are AI and no one cared. They didn't even disclose it on steam and valve doesn't care.
i dont have any ideas worth making
>>538481429Not only that but Team Cherry is also only comprised of three guys and the game is self-published. Even after taxes and fees that's still tens of millions of dollars that they can do whatever they want with.
>>538490125If they had no legacy from 2017 they'd never make it in today's market
>>538488726You should just make an rpgmaker NTR game.
>>538490125they sold 15 million copies of hollowknight, so the fact they stayed a team of 3 and made the sequel is astounding. I see they did hire some help, but they probably did short stints.
>>538490215>If they sat on their ass and did nothing with their lives for years they wouldn't be successfulNo shit, anon. You got anymore insightful commentary?
I'm prototyping a CRPG system and I don't want to waste time with rulecrafting yet, is there an open source/royalty free D&D alternative?
10/85
>>538490310I'm not talking about that you 70 IQ moron. I'm talking if they were STARTING OUT today, they'd never get to this position in the first place.
>>538490215this. they wouldn't stand out among all the hollowknight clones we have today... wait no.. um..
>>538490509You can say that about anything that's old and popular. Like I'm sure if Black Sabbath didn't form in the late 60s and release music back in the day they would've never been popular in 2025 but it's a good thing that they did, isn't it?
>>538487684Make money through ad revenue.
>>538479659How to handle email to prevent getting flooded with spam?
>>538490424D&D is open source and has sourced its own free alternatives
>>538490509I think this anon >>538490712 has a point.It's because they started out in 2017 and changed the indie scene with their game that they wouldn't stand out today.If they hadn't done that, they could still change the scene if they released the original hollow knight today.
My game is dying...
>>538491071>they could still change the scene if they released the original hollow knight todayNo, they wouldn't. The market is not as open-ended and easy to get in as it was back then. No matter the quality of HK, they'd get overlooked if they did the same every thing today as they did in 2017, without HK clones existing
>godot is the only open source engine anyone uses for some reason>has its own shitpoop scripting language thats dynamically typedWhy? Just why? I shouldnt need to be reminded that dynamic typing exists when working on my hobby, it makes me angry that it fucking exists at all.
>no I don't wanna make money>I wanna make schizo lolly prototypes that barely count as gamesNever change aggy

I got my frames above 1000 again. MultiMeshInstances are powerful but are a pain to set up. Anyway, good news is that I have the option to spawn in massive world once I get proc gen in the game.
how do I even explain what I want? I feel like I can picture it but I can't even begin working on it because I can't put it into words.

>>538491168You might be right, but seeing as hollow knight is considered without debate the best in its genre, I imagine it would still be a massive hit. Unless a game like it came out before it did.
>>538491573>>538492014>If I make up fake scenarios in my head then that means I win the argument, chud
>>538488738But it's only soulslikes (formerly known as action rpgs) which get a pass in terms of difficulty.
>>538490785I just make up a sentence for my email with four or five words.
>>538491748It's supposed to be a 3d game with 3d physics but it's almost entirely constrained into a small plane. It's like I need to make a 2d game but with gravity that pulls them down if they're too high and up if they're too low.Can anyone explain how to do this in unreal engine? I'm already making a lot of the assets but I don't understand game dev at all so I'm stumped whenever it's time to make any game logic.
>>538492106There is not a single benefit to any form of dynamic typing at all in any scenario.
>>538491818I bet you'll skip my game faggot
>>538492212Options I'm thinking of:>Invibsible plane on top of and below the objects with their gravity turned off so that they all bounce around inside the space>Gravity reversed while below the Z=0.0 so that low objects fall upwards and high objects fall downwardsany other ideas that might work for this?
>>538492295I will, because your game is gay as shit
>>538492331gaybitch
>>538490215i think if silksong was their first game, and didn't have such a large community to build hype, the game would be considered a success sitting at ~3k reviews after a 2 year promotion campaign
>>538491743The 1 bit artstyle looks good. Hope it'll stay that way with the exception of the msn avatar having a glowup.
i dont have any good ideas
>godots input system uses its "signals" >signals are dynamic in nature and CANNOT be entirely statically typed>meaning ALL of your players inputs in a game made with godot have a bare minimum amount of input lag due to dynamic poopshit that you cant avoidWas this engine made only for turn based games and they just kept adding shit?

Who the fuck started that rumor that Steam doesn't market your game for you? I've been getting a steady inflow of visits and wishlists from Steam itself without doing anything
>>538492708post game
THREEE 3 THREADS IN THE CATALOGUE
>>538492708Steam doesn't market your game for you only if your game is shit and there's no reason for anyone to play it
>>538488975bige ffort
>>538488738This. Gamers don't mind the difficulty, it is what makes a game into a unique medium. There are posers, and inclusivity crowds that do, but only AAA business can pander to them, with limited success.The important thing is to make difficulty a bog to navigate, not a solid wall to hold up people. If you're stuck, Elden Ring has Spirit Ashes, jar bombs, elemental damages, to switch up your tactic if you can't beat something. Also level-ups so you can just make things easier for you.
>>538477919Uh, yes? Fighting enemies is the whole point.https://files.catbox.moe/w0927e.mp4
>>538493167Holy shit finally someone with some fucking sense and intelligence
>>538492708How long has your game been on Steam? The platform generally gives your game a boost of exposure initially, and then either tapers this off or increases it relation to your revenue generation. Most successful publishers do not rely solely on Steam's promotion algorithms. It's a best practice to promote your game to the best of your ability on external platforms regardless of the success it organically achieves on Steam.
>>538488738elden ring was unironically easy + had over a decade of community hype behind itnoname games with high difficulty generally flop
>>538492578https://docs.godotengine.org/en/4.4/tutorials/scripting/gdscript/static_typing.html
>>538491194You can use static typing in GDScript. Just enable warnings/errors on untyped variables and type them all.
>>538493270Thanks anon, you have a nice day too!
>>538492578that's not how input lag works dumdum
>>538493167Best way to look at it is to try to think like an arcade designer. You want to take the question of difficulty in your game very seriously and try to apply it deliberately across your entire game.In the arcades, the business model required that games had a coin turnover rate.If the game was too easy then people could just stay on the game all day on the same credit and the machine would never receive another quarter. However if the game was WAY too hard, like so hard that it just steals a quarter from the player, they'll get frustrated and say the game is bullshit and won't put in another quarter. You have to find a happy medium between these two states. But don't be afraid to pump the gas on difficulty a little bit either.
>>538493754shut the fuck up nigga
How would you implement armies on a Skyrim/Oblivion like? I want people to have the option to have their character travel solo, in a small group, or lead armies, but I feel that letting thousands of characters all on screen marching in formation and fighting each other in a premade perpetual world would kill performance.Would a good compromise be having some soldiers guard a baggage train that acts as a spawner, alongside any performance preservation truck I can cram into the background?
>>538493530>>538493643You dont understand, thats not what im complaining about. I know i can use static typing. But the engine will force dynamic poop on me reguardless

>>538495298Same reason why every fucking anime looks the same and a lot of games and movies look the same. That look has become the standard more or less and people are scared to make something that looks different out of fear of being called bad at art.

Trying not to get discouraged but I have three game projects with Kasha in various stages of completion. Two are in prototype and one is in active development.This is all with the main goal of getting to my 'main event' game GigaMaidens, a fighting game about giantesses, which I've had on the backburner since 2010.I'm focusing on Kasha for now but I really want GM made. I'm not getting any younger, I'm turning 38 in December and it's eating away at my morale. Hope I can keep it together.

>>538498130You keep spouting "inherently dynamic" but I don't think you even know what it means or imply. It's something the AI made up. In fact I'm not even sure you understand what a signal is, it's basically just a call to a method. You can type all methods. There is nothing special or more dynamic about signals.
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK
>>538498585okay you caught me. the maya render is just promotional material. I got the 3d models from the molstar viewer on the pdb website. the actual bledner asset that got someone interested in the game was the lipid bilayer I did in 5 minutes off a video tutorial

At this age while not being cris.I mean, making a fighting game is bad enough because nobody plays fighting games outside of the established franchises, but making an extremely specific fetish themed fighting game is a sure sign that you need some type of psychological intervention.

>>538494285input lag is the time between an input being pressed and the result actually being displayed on the screen (or audio I guess)if your input processing is happening within the frame (and if it weren't, you'd be dropping frames) then there is no additional input lag from the code being slower. You're polling at the start of the frame and responding to it by the time is being rendered.

>>5384993681. shortest way to explain it is that we're copying CellCraft (2010) the flash game (strategy simulation game inside of a cell)2. I made a prototype of this game over the summer with 3 other people (it was our first game. It's extremely barebones and humble)
>>538499650pls no bully we're going from 1st game in gamemaker (2d) -> 2nd game in unreal (3d)
>>538499650life is so fake and gay, I can't believe anybody's falling for this shit
>>538499083signals are retarded thoughever, they're like events but less useful. So if you want an event bus you have to write your own.In order to trigger a method from a signal you have to have a reference to the object that fires the signal. Which I don't think is that useful. But Juan put it in the engine as a whole thing for some reason
>>538483120dude, im wearing those exact headphones. i just had to take them off to check. crazy.

Why are you guys still making 3D low poly stuff instead of 2D goodness pixel art?
>>538500808who invited this goof?
>>538500876low?
>>538500876Pixel art is hard
My 2D slop would be around 100MB if made in C++/SDL, while using Unity would probably bloat it to multiple GBs, but also make development much faster. Does anybody care about filesizes as long as it is not 100GB game?
>>538500403>But which one is faster? Thats really the bigger issue hereThat's a big issue for nodevs. Retards will use an untyped scripting language in a bloated game engine like Godot and then benchmark how fast 100 million signals can be sent and received as if that's ever going to come up in a real world scenario.

If you needed a cash injection you could probably start an auteur AI porn patreon.I know these exist but video generation is really good now, and there might be a niche in long-form videos where instead of a disjointed 5 second clip it's a coherent narrative with "cinematography". AI voice acting too. I'm positive it could generate some good money.I'm not gonna do it myself because I don't want to attach my name to things like that but I'm throwing out the idea for any of you who would like to.
You're all a bunch of real heroes for forcing some guy who is desperate for any sales at all to go to tremendous expense when we all know damn well it's not going to sell more copies with real actors.You can't force any big corporations to listen to you, so you just attack weaklings. Truly noble behaviour.
>>538502469what are you shitposting about? I'm out of the loop
>>538501869skill issue
>>538502709that's a roundabout way of getting a character to move, did you run into issues trying to do this too?
i cant start, because i know ill fail
>>538501459Based. Your art looks great and using 3d models to make 2d sprites is the pinnacle of soul. Hope you can release before Xmas to capitalize on the theme.
>>538502835>that's a roundabout way of getting a character to move, It's just animation blending.>did you run into issues trying to do this too?Yeah I had to write my own animation framework because Godot's animation tools are dogwater
You fucking BITCH! Do you even realise what you have done? I'm gonna fucking kill you now, bitch!
Vector art might be the solution for my asset problems. Too bad it makes your game look like flash and mobile slop.
>>538503024i don't know how to get around this, i get that 3d was added as an afterthought, but it's astonishing how such a simple feature could be broken, do they think we just want to make board game simulators where everyone is a static piece that never animates
>>538500876Because I want my animated characters to wear various clothing items that you can mix and match and that's difficult to do with pixel art.
I want characters that actually SPEAK different languages. With accents. The only way I can realistically achieve this is to use A.I., but, /agdg/ won't allow me to.
>>538503385you have no game
>>538503229>i don't know how to get around thisThere's a youtuber called Fair Fight who goes into depth about using SkeletonModifier3d to run animations programatically to sidestep the issue of Godot's animation tools being shit. It just requires watching a few hours of videos and all voiced in a thick Russian accent.

GM, thanks for all the kind comments yesterday. Let's see this thing through to the end.>MokuIntriguing menu art.Options are there but no video settings to adjust.A 2D adventure RPG with survival mechanics? It supports multiple players, could actually be fun but no way to test.A small intro for setup and we're left stranded on an island, bleeding, only a rusty pan as our weapon.The game has tooltips indicating controls which is good but some of the control schemes seem ambiguous, especially the stick clicks with the arrow seem to indicate to pull down instead of clicking.The loadout and status screens are rudimentary and hard to tell what is happening.The pixel font for the button tooltips is all mangled.Pause menu looks cool and has a map of the whole island, seems pretty yuge.While the background music is nice it doesn't really match the tone of the game (placeholder I guess), the game also lacks SFX, no footstep sound, no ambient, interacting with most objects has no feedback.I like the day cycle switching animation, it's well done but goes by too fast, you can't really look at the art.A lot of the pixel art seems too simple compared to things like trees.It's not clear what the 3 bars represent at the top.The windup on each attack makes fighting a struggle, enemies hit pretty hard right out the gate.It's best to avoid fighting early on.Not really a fan of how the player character looks, the mirror to change appearance is a good idea.Sometimes there is a bit too much info at once, the tooltips also should be condensed to not show a full sentence across the screen.Overall, this is shaping up to be a pleasant game, I can see there's lots of work put into its systems already not many faults I can find besides the art being really rough atm. Since it shows the song name at the bottom consider adding a button to skip music tracks.
>>538503529i'm watching the video and it's alot, i don't even have ik bones or shape keys
>>538503750i cant do it, this is way too much pressure FUCK
Is it permissible to use AI musics for diegetic background ambient tracks? Think restaurant music coming out a speaker in the world that the characters technically actually hear.

>>538503904>Ninja GameBeen meaning to play this for a while.No intro, menus are basic, no options to config anything.Language option immediately changes language.Doing the tutorial there are two paths to pick, only one should be available otherwise one could miss some stuff.The controller tooltip image is too small imo (changing to crunchy graphics is a bit better).There are a lot of controls and mechanics to be aware of, it might take some time to get used to.Jumping while guarding still has a static animation.The ambience is top notch, the footsteps, the hit sounds, every object and surface have distinctive sounds, very nice.The dropkick is way too fun to use.While there is no setup or story of any kind it's fairly obvious what you need to do if you played games before.The slapstick humour is top notch, the enemies eating your bananas after you're dead is so funny.Selecting and using items during combat is not ideal as you need to move away from the sticks.The tactic to die and then revive once the danger is gone is awesome.I'm having a lot of trouble remembering how to grab and knock people out so I just go guns blazing every fight.Overall, fantastic game and idea, lives up to the fantasy of being a ninja, the style is charming. My nitpicks with it are the controls, how many moves you have to learn, selecting items is a pain. The game could really use a bit of setup down the line for why we're doing what we're doing, maybe voices for playable characters would be nice. It probably needs a bit more life, especially the environments, hidden stuff to find or collect. Dev should keep leaning and pushing further on the slapstick, but not so much that it becomes overbearing, a sort of very serious humour could do well I feel. Pitfalls is that it could quickly get tiring and repetitive without that, needs something to break up the monotony of the environments and combat, maybe some mini-game?

>>538485696its pretty funny when retards blame reaction time when everything is more or less dependent on specifically prethinking different scenarios (which makes you react to them way faster)
>>538495378>>538495837This is all very flattering but I’m objectively not a skilled animator. I went as far as making my player character 3D specifically to avoid the hurdle of animating him traditionallyPaloo dev is an incredibly skilled artist and his animation looks amazing

Do new Godot versions do anything about bloat? Godot 4 updates have made the exported executable grow enormous.
>>538510336I don't update.
how do you set up some basic DRM thing with steam where it at least checks your steam ID and whether you own the game when starting it? for example even without something like Denuvo, most games attempt to open steam when you open the exe, if they were bought on steam. But for some indie games, you can simply copy paste the install folder, uninstall and refund the game, and then play it anyway because it's just an exe in a folder that calls nowhere else. you could do that with void stranger for example
>>538510776I wouldn't worry about that until 50k wishlists. and even then almost every game gets pirated, so it's not worth the effort.
>open my games review section on steam>sort by "latest all languages">the languages are not sorted in descending chronological order and instead are literally randomly jumbledWhy is Steam like this?
>>538510236Can confirm.
>>538511190The reviews* not languagesMy brain is dying
>>538511190>languages are not sorted in descending chronological orderwhat? you mean like Sumerian first because it's chronologically the oldest?
>>538511271KEKAROOO
>>538508927>>538510474>Bullet The WizardAnother prototype game, this time shooting wizards with an MP5.Still a very basic game of survivors-like.Reached wave 20 before I had enough.The wizards tend to clump up together so you can just coral them in a bunch then rotate the whole time around the bunch and shoot them until all are dead.In the previous version you often accidentally picked an upgrade while shooting because it appeared out of nowhere, now there is a level up text before getting to pick an upgrade, however I still sometimes picked one by accident.The way to do this it seems is to pause the game for a bit with nothing on screen but the level up animation so the player has time to come to a stop, and only then show the upgrades for picking.Of course this is still a prototype but my ideas for it are more of everything, more enemies, more weapons, drops, items, explosions, things to collect, more environments, more music, more SFX. Go all out. Shooting is the main course so make it the most appetizing as well, weapons should feel visceral, too boring atm. Maybe come crazy movement like bunny hopping or wall running could make it really stand out. That's all I have to say really.

>>538502456>cash injectionIt's really not. Like anything it takes time to build a following and the skillset to sell something to that following. As in, expect at least 2 months of work minimum to get your first dollar, and then a couple more months to go past the 100 dollar mark unless you literally win the viral content lottery somehow. Everyone thinks "oh I'd make money easily if I prostituted myself" but 95% of OnlyFans accounts make less than $1000 a month so you just end up whoring yourself for minimum wage.

My name is Notem Portant. What is important is that I'm going to write a comment....I just fucking hate indie game devs, and the normalfags giving them money for shitty games. My whole life is just cold, bitter game devving. And I always wanted to be a successful solodev. This is the time of vengeance and no indie dev will get any wishlists. And I will make as many indie devs fail as I can. It's time for me to make a breakout hit. And it's time for me to open up Godot. My game dev crusade begins... here.

>>538513946With that logic none of these food analogies make sense.Also restaurants offering different options doesn't make it not a cop-out. Asian restaurants offering non-spicy food to cater to westerners is literally a cop-out.

I articulated an interesting point about games and people called it an "ai generated post"

Game design is very difficult.

Why do you faggots say so many pointless things
>>538514628Antagonizing your customers/fans is a bad strategy.
Game made on Quake1 engine
>>538514791so i shouldnt use it to generate unique ids for my units?
>>538514879Casuals are not my customers/fans.If you're not up for a challenge my games are not for you.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzE3f6Mb0A8Latest trailer of my free amateur action/strategy game Hellbirther. Game is basically finished but there's some finishing touches I wanna add that I'm procrastinating on.
If you want soul in your game, just pick an old game engine and dev on it
>>538515020SOVL
>>538514989As a a kof player, casual are like 98% of the population.The so called hardcore players are like 500 players at best in the world.>>538514956If you're too worried about it, you can use something like the time of the OS using the engine function.But for ids, a better solution is to just have a variable in your generator with the spanw_id starting at 0 and then just doing spawn_id += 1 then use that as your unit unique id.
just look at this, made in quake 3 engine. Imagine what you could create if you pushed it to its limits and beyond. The ultimate soulfull game
>>538515020That's just Earth
>>538515020kekking at how detailed the great lakes are compared to everything else
>>538515256And if there was only one player good enough to beat my game I still wouldn't sacrifice its integrity for a larger audience.
>>5385151093d = too limited, can't have enough physical mechanics / environmental interactions
>>538515415good, there's a market for super hardcore games, like mario kaizo and I wanna be the guy.Hope you enjoy your game to be suportive of the trans speedrunning comunity, then.
>>538515473No normal mapping no specular maps no nothing just pure Sovl
>>538515538Of course, trans rights are human rights after all.
>>538513960I can do that. I just got a B intentionally to see if it's working right. Also, all the score requirements are technically incorrect, the intention for the final version will be for each level to have its own score requirement. Right now they're all the same, but for some reason the current numbers do feel somewhat accurate on most levels, at least for the A.
>>538515109>use old engine>it's actually full of bugs and other shittings>because it's old there's no dev support, no online guides, fixes or forums>forced to contend with the shittings, use janky workarounds, or spend 1 billion years attempting to fix the shittingsGood idea.
>>538516448Its part of the fun
>>538516448Just fix it yourself. You don't use proprietary software, right?

how do you design a good turn based rpg

>>538516869bro...
Game development is for losers. I need to finish my project and move on.
>>538516906The answer is to come up with problems that require a variety of solutions so the player isnt just spamming attack commands all game and then just try to make your writing actually good
i think it's kinda funny how the basis of marketing is "just make something people want lol"you can spend years fine tuning your lifelong dream game passion project just for it to completely fall flat on release despite deliberate promotion effortsand then an incremental slop game made in 3 weeks gets plastered all over youtube and makes $3,000,000it's kind of blackpilling about the consumer habits of the general population, but alas, it is what it is
>>538516363Just because I will make it means that I will not give up
>>538517103oh, then I don't think I can design a good turn based rpg...
>>538517103The best selling JRPG series can be beat by spamming attack and has none to laughable writing.
>>538517162the whitepill of this is that there are so many people out there looking for entertainment, that if you manage to develop a niche community of supporters, you'll at least make enough money to continue funding developmentso that's a plusif you don't think your game has mass appeal, discordmaxx immediately
>>538517058True and based.Godspeed.
Weere there any games with AI art or assets this jam, besides that one prototype?

video game graphics peaked with these two games. of course games can look better but they don't need to. if you need more realistic graphics, you don't have the suspension of disbelief needed to enjoy games.
>>538517767Unreal 3 btw
>>538517162>the basis of marketing is "just make something people want lol"not really, it's more like "make the offer seem so appealing people will run to buy it"in that example of the incremental game, if you can make the game seem like it's a really good incremental game then people will buy it, but it's also good if you can actually deliver the feeling of it being good (it doesn't have actually be a really good incremental game, but it gets more complex over here, just see apple's marketing and how they can make people hyped just because they've added a dark mode or changed the UI a tiny bit lmao)
>>538516648Old engines are more likely to be proprietary than open source, retardationist.
>>538515473This is also what I found. As much as people like to shit on 2D, it's just so, so much faster to implement environmental interactions. I'd love to go back to 3D but it'd have to be as part of a collab so that we'd have enough people to actually make enough interaction content to make the world interesting.
>>538518025That doesn't mean there aren't free software ones. Just use one of those and fix its issues when you come across any.

>>538518852
>>538517974that's a good point, the importance of value proposition is definitely something i forgot aboutbut, in my opinion, even in those cases, companies like apple still have a general understanding of what their consumer base generally prefersif apple came out and tried promoting the technical details of the software and hardware of their phones, people just wouldn't care nearly as much as if they promoted something more visual and superficial>apple promotes their new computer chips and faster processing speeds>crowds snore, low interest>apple promotes new phone colors and UI updates>people lose their mindsi think you're 100% correct in that it's necessary to make the product your proposing seem "worth the money", but there still seems to be an element of "people care about X much more than they care about Y"in the case of game development, your game can have super fun mechanics, great writing, cool characters, and a unique premise, and still underperform compared to a mobile game with flashy visuals, anime girls, and a battlepass with paywalled unlocksmy belief is that it's still possible for games of all genres to find success, but the more unique your game is, the longer it'll take to develop a supportive userbasemeanwhile if you develop something designed for mass appeal based on available data, you can almost immediately garner the, shallow, but still financially viable support of the general populationit's basically make your dream game and work for long term success, or make a data-based cashgrab and advertise it as aggressively as possible for short term returns

I'm going to throw out a heretical opinion and say that the "fanart" collages are actually bad for the community.First, it's not actually all that useful for morale because it's not really fanart, it's basically a participation trophy.Second, having participation trophies distracts the community from its actual goal: making good games. Participation trophies encourage participation for the sake of the trophy instead of focusing on making better games.Third, making participation trophies does not improve the strength and health of the community. Good intra-community interaction should be trying out and giving feedback to each other's demos, in the pursuit of the goal of making better games. Spending time on making and talking about the participation trophies takes time away from the real community interactions.That said, if anon wants to express themselves creatively by making participation trophies instead of working on their games, it's not like anyone can or should stop them.

>>538519398>Roblox alone shows that the market is rigged.i don't know exactly what you mean by this, but my nephew plays roblox a lot, and told me the most popular games normally use bots to inflate their player count, and pay large amounts of money to secure top placement on the "look for games" pagei also did research on the mobile games market, and the advertising budget required for big games to become and remain successful is absolutely giganticsteam used to be a good platform to escape from this, since cool indie games were relatively easy to find, but now it seems like the steam promotion algorithm makes it difficult for more "humble" studios, people who don't want to spend tons of money or time building up support for their games, to reach the same level of popularitythankfully itch is still a good website, i find tons of cool obscure games on there that i absolutely would not have found on steam
>>538519951it's over, the thread has been taken over by 'cord tourists (i think they have over 1700 nodevs in there) who just use it as a chat roomonly solution is to separate 'cord threads with /agdg/ threads, i propose to use fygoon threads if you're a real dev and 'cord threads if you want to have a somewhat gamedev related chatroom with your buddies instead of using 'cord for some reason despite being from there

cont from>>538422027I managed to compute the SDF of the dungeon on a compute shader. At least I'm mostly there. Still some coordinate offsets to tackle. That's an important technical foundation for using the SDF for both ambient occlusion and SDF-based lighting and (soft) shadows. Doesn't look like much, but it's a big step. Using a compute shader with the proper resolution of the grid means it'll be lightning fast, making it possible to easily recompute on every frame for full dynamic lights

>>538522178They are though. They're created voluntarily after all.
There's an indie game developer who released a game entirely solo, and made around $350k. Not millionaire tier but still pretty high for a one man team, and I'm surprised people here don't worship him the way they worship Eric. He even moved to japan after making his game and now keeps making small games and actually releasing them. I wonder if it's because he doesn't post his face online, or because he's not a millionaire?
>>538521808I only knew of Undertale because a dorky girl I was friends with (and used to find cute) recommended it to me when I was asking around for games similar to EarthBound as a gift for my older sister's birthday.Sonya, if for some reason you are on these threads, please shove a cactus up your ass for recommending such a degenerate game to me. I should have gotten my sister Call of Duty.
>>538521808>just get absurdly beautiful women to recommend your game to retarded losersgenius plan

>>538511390>Slide GameSmol game window.Game name is whatever.Has a toggle for fullscreen and audio.Splash/logo don't really match the palette of the rest of the game and menus.Why isn't the PRESS START as sharp as the rest?Pressing new game leads us instantly into game, no instructions for any buttons.Pause menu exists and has the needed options.Art is reminiscent of Zelda gameboy games.Pressing R will reset the character back to the start of the room.Pressing E or Enter to interact, it seems if we don't move we can still read books even if the book icon has disappeared.Similar to Zelda it should play a little SFX when you fall down.Room is reset to its initial state if we fall.The page numbers in the books could probably be smaller and made within the pixelart (or removed) so they don't throw you off when reading.Book and page art could be a lot nicer with ornaments and more detail.Ran into a bug where a slide sound kept playing until I pressed R.Controller isn't supported (essential for a game like this!).I think I locked myself out in one of the rooms and had to restart.I think the songs need better fade in/out transitions.Overall, charming little puzzle game with potential to be a hit. It needs to soften some of its rough edges, the story/lore isn't that intriguing, it needs cute little button prompts at the start to show the controls, needs a nice recognizable logo (and name!) to aura farm on social media, needs a cool intro and setup before entering the game, some extras you can unlock, something to keep you engaged and playing. Pitfalls could be the repetitiveness of constantly doing puzzles, good in short burts, as well as how long the game is.
>>538522589I figured. That's why I'm making my own game: so I can reverse the disease that is plaguing our society. Instead of some gay non-binary twig loser, you play as a jacked dragon king who does what he wants.

Is it considered lazy to re-use a static mesh but with different colors to signify different "tiers" of foliage? Higher tiers of foliage are only available in higher tier maps, and can be used for higher tier potions. I feel like it will not matter to the player if the mesh looks unique, since the game is top down and the color difference will communicate that it is not the exact "same".Thoughts fellow daggers?

>>538528041fair, but i do believe the odds can be skewed in your favor if you're willing to investigate optimal marketing strategiesi assume if you can reliably identify themes that resonate with a viable audience, and can identify an effective method of informing this audience of the existence of your game, even if your game is slop by all industry standards, it can still find successbut this procedure is generally handled by publishers, not developersi'm just saying, if your life was on the line, you'd probably be able to replicate at least a fraction of the success of these sorts of games

>>538529126it's a game that looks like a studio ghibli production. it was made by 2 experienced devs 3+ years. the video from 3 years before release looks more or less like the final game, so it was probably longer.gross revenue was around $300k, so assuming 3 years of development time, each developer earned around $30k/year from the game. that's less than burger flipper money.

My DD64 fan art, just missing the colors.I tried to get all 85 entries in this picture. I didn't actually play all of them, just a couple that really interested me, so unfortunately some of the characters are taken from their game's banner art (I didn't want to dwell too much on it and I think this makes it easier for anyone to recognize all of them). Some games like Hypercoven feature one of the enemy characters too. I couldn't get everyone in sadly, due to them having almost no art or not being a good fit overall. The ones who didn't make it are honourably mentioned here:Not games/early prototypes:>TS WEBGL MULTIPLAYER>FIRST GAME>DUNGEON CRAWLER TEST>DTF>Chamoisee-Canvasback Prototype>precomputed occlusion culling demo>Bullet The Wizard>JTF Prototype v.00000001>MRPG>doroboarashi onara shizopidorasReal games that I couldn't get to fit:>Dombia>Project King - Prototype>Cross Box Online (WIP)>Journey Zero>Mirrored Tanks>Ultra Plane>Planets For Sale>Castella>Heart of Evil>GlitchPick>Rixer>Shanghai GoldI hope I haven't excluded anyone, if I did, sorry, maybe I can add you to the collab when I color it.

what do you think about this FPS ladder implementation?:>holding W makes you go up the ladder no matter where you look>pressing A and D makes you move left and right on the ladder>holding S makes you go down the ladder>pressing Space will cause you to jump off the ladder>>538536867let's do it.
>>538536867I need a girlfriend to make a game with
>>538537189people will simply not understand that looking down on a ladder and pressing W makes you go up. they expect to go where they're looking.also you better not allow looking behind you on the ladder cause then left and right get inverted
>>538537189What if you're going down the ladder, won't the player walk up to the ladder holding W then have to awkwardly hold S to go down
>>538537189>What do you think about this extremely common control schemeOkay

>how would you do it then?Idk ask Silksong
>>538533634Dude go to /b/ or /gif/ right now and there's almost certainly a live action gore/rekt thread or a scat thread up at all times. Oldfag chan memes like pedobear and the 4chan party van revolve around the near constant presence of CP on this websiteAgain you're clearly extremely new
>>538538250W is forward, not up tho. I'd have the player hold up (space) to go up and down (ctrl) to go down
Don't have mercy on gamers.They are like women on dating apps: supremely entitled, unappreciative, spoiled for choice, always demanding more and more while offering less and less.Gamers are our enemy. Our goal is to take as much of their money as we can and waste as much of their time as we can.

>>538538984>Anon just woke up from a 30 year coma and hasn't played a fps the entire time inbetween
anons, how do you transition from a "single scene prototype" to an actual alpha version that has a menu, loads levels, etc? right now i have a single scene in unity, i press play, the scene loads and i can play. but i'd like to start transitioning into an actual game.
honestly, this is the best non AI idea to have cheap sprites.:DIt's better than AI.
>>538531969I KNEEL. Thanks for adding the Leap Galaxy bunny
>>538539274Just Like Make Game

>>538531969based fanart artist
>>538539165name one fps game that uses ctrl (or c), and space.
>>538538250It is somewhat intuitive but it's not the done thing because if you walk up to a ladder looking to climb down you want to keep holding W to climb down but they will instead climb back up.It's something that the player can get used to but the alternative is better imo
>>538539638call of doodie
>DefendAliceSimple menu, credits button is antisocial.Background music starts only after clicking a button.Buttons are crunchy, options have the settings we need.The Snake character doesn't seem to do anything.Why are there so many buttons to open up the pause menu?The art could really have benefited from a bit more effort.What are the yellow squares for (the fruit I'm guessing)?The fraction numbers don't make sense to me.Lots of music variety, all sound good.Didn't really understand the condition for getting a boon.The boons screen really needs some art, the slot machine rolling is a great idea to expand upon.That one planks on your back upgrade is more of a liability than any help.Game is surprisingly engaging.Overall, this has the makings of a successful game, the gameplay loop is immediately captivating and understood, there's good feedback to hitting the enemies, bouncing them against the walls is fun while also representing the danger of straying too far. I can see this game doing well, it needs really good art and controller support and that's already halfway to success, the needed systems are there.
>>538533652Pastebin i'll look at it
>>538539740sorry i only played good FPS like Half Life and they all use W and S and go up and down the ladders. yours sounds like it's from early 90s.
>>538539893Bro, it already has controller support. Did you even try?
>>538539707how would you make it so that player goes down if they're holding W while climbing down and vice versa logicwise?
>>538540157Have you consider + and -Great controls options because if you want to go up you just press + and if you want to go down you press -
>>538540271It did? My bad then, I didn't work for me at least not in the menu.
>>538540310Check camera rotation on the horizontal axis. If you're looking down invert the controls.
I'm so tired
>>538535253What even is going on here?
I think it’s time for steampunk to make a comeback
>>538540419How about mouse wheel?
>>538540681how does that look like in unity c#?
>>538535253I like the style
>>538538250>if you face with your back to the ladder you'll still move left and right respectively.yes so relative to the player camera right? so if the left and right is relative to the camera, why isn't forward and backward?
I found an alternative solution to AI to draw my sprites. :D
>>538530305I wouldn't post any pics or gameplay on 4chan, unless it's a joke.
Forcing players to play like a bitch for 7 hours waiting for the window to attack isn't real difficulty. Patience is not a skill
>>538541610because you can't turn 360 when looking up or down.
>>538541589Use a dot product between the local vector forward of the camera and the the up directionI cannot code it for you

>>538522772Thanks for the review dude.A lot of these points have been raised by others in the Itch comments. I've responded there in detail. tl;dr: you're rightGoing to start building the fourth zone now. Looking to have that ready (and maybe more) for DD66. Eventually aiming for 8 zones each a similar size to this demo, hopefully will have enough variety to keep things engaging.

>>538495298Mine converged into the old disgaea/nis style
>>538539274It's really best to do this ASAP. Like one of the first things you do in your game ASAP.>menu>loads levelsWell, if your game doesn't rely on a lot of [DontDestroyOnLoad] singletons it can be pretty easy, but it depends a lot on your game's architecture and how you do levels. In general, keep the number of scenes you load additively down to a minimum as in my experience scene management and game architecture in general gets a lot harder if you start caring about having multiple scenes loaded at once. So ideally, IMO, you should be able to run your game with a basic raw ass LoadScene() call.All that said, my general game architecture these days:>bootstrapper sceneThis is an almost completely empty scene which ONLY contains things that you set as DontDestroyOnLoad, and things that will stay running the entire course of the game. For example, things that save and load player data, or whatever your scene management class is going to be called.>main menu sceneWhat it says>game levelsIdeally, you can structure your game such that you load individual levels, and all the things required to run the game at that level are built in (with a lot of prefabs for shared things like e.g. a player controller). The cleaner you can get away with loading a level and having it be totally self-sufficient, the easier it will be to develop your game.I've been doing this for a long time now, and I think people with fancy ass scene loading shit are the midwit meme. My game on Steam has a crazy complex loading system, and I deeply regret it, and have come back around to the Unity tutorial level of "Just do a hard SceneManager.LoadScene()" as the best, cleanest, most developerproof method of organizing a game.
>>538531969very nice, thanks
