>Very Positive (374) in 18 monthswhy do you think your game will do better?
>>539314583Cause my game doesn't look like a hyperrealistic AAAshart
It's simple.I just need a game idea that can be made by me in my spare time after work in under 4 months, not require me to pay artists or musicians, will sell a million copies in its first year, get overwhelmingly positive reviews, all at a higher price than silksong
>>539314583>>Very Positive (374) in 18 months>why do you think your game will do better?
>>539314583It's 25$ for an unpolished-looking early access game lil retard
just make sure to never have an employment gap. if you need to finish your game, try to have some company employ you to work 1 day a week for $0 just so you can have something in your resume

>>539315585there is no inflation of gamer expectations.the bar is so low, it's literally in hell.all you need to do is make a good game people want to play.what's a good game? the one that sells well.tautologies are perfectly valid arguments.

>>539240059if my friend asked me hey do you want to come play 'banquest of fools' and I didn't know what it was I'd obviously say no, because think about it, what kind of game worth getting into would be called "banquest of fools". It sounds like some point and click game about some pompous Victorian era dinner party. it sounds like a lame snorefest, just in the title. The name is repulsive. Gamers want to be winners, not fools. and banquests are for fat people. like seriously if they had have called it siege of ragnarok: goblin exterminator it would have done better, definitely.

>>539316553>some point and click game about some pompous Victorian era dinner partysounds like ludokino already
>>539314817It's not an employment gap if you're self-employed and actually working. Put your game on your resume. Are you embarrassed of your game or something?
>>539316323there's so much competition for any workplace worth anything that they can simply shift the burden of proof on you or play it safe and assume if they can't verify it that means you're lying and go with one of the hundred other candidates who have pay stubs and other documentation.

You guys are really fucking annoying this morning
>>539316841>critical reflex
>>539316841look at who the publisher is and look at their wishlists
what do you call this phenomenon where steam page shitposters are simply incapable of noticing important things such as aesthetics and quality and chalk it all up to genres and luck?
>>539316597it could be, my first vision on that games name was imagining something like loom but also the emperors new clothes
>>539316892That was all me (not sorry)
>>539316967Mental retardation
>>539316841Pay youtubers to play your game. The hardest part for a horror game is in the marketing. Not only you need to show your game to people, but hook them, so they buy it themselves instead of "beating it" on a Youtube.
>>539316967it's nodev cope
>>539316913>>539316910If it's all the publisher's work, do you think Gimmiko will get the same amount of sales then?
>>539316967everyone in /agdg/ with the exception of a select handful are mentally retarded and completely clinically insane
>>539317027Probably, but it's not the publisher's work. They just select games which they believe would already perform well on their own based on a multitude of factors and just give the bare minimum so they don't seem like a scam.That's 90% of indie publishers.
>>539316967or price, that's a common one for some reason
>>539317115publishers don't work, they just pick out things that they predict will be successful to leech off from while providing nothing in return
>>539317170...are you retarded? That's exactly what I said.Dear god is the median IQ of this place 75?
>>539317170they're good at promoting games with potential
>>539317170publishers get you into steam events easily which gives you a lot of visibility
publishers actually do a lot of work
>>539317213They're not. They pick games that would be most successful even without them and just do the bare minimum to "help". That's why they're a scam.>>539317264I guess that is an advantage but it's quite negligible because if you get picked up by a publisher like this then you probably could've done it on your own anyway.
>>539317264entering an event on steam is a matter of having an eligible game and clicking a single button, there's nothing extra a publisher can do there
>>539317406i don't think you realize how cancerous it is to promote your games as a solo devpublishers not only do this for you, but they do a very good job at it
Publishers are the landlords of hard work
>>539317528>Publishers are the landlords of hard work
Forgot to repost. Other anons said visibility of the menu might be an issue with some text, any other feedback?
i'd be okay with getting a publisher if they took my game from 500 reviews to 5,000
Never giving my hard earned money to no stinking publisher
>>539315471Most companies don't do this because they have better things to do than pay an entire gestappo worth of HR roasties to sit around all day trying to fuck over their productive employees
>>539317517You're not really getting my point. Yes, it is cancerous, but unless your game is already a guaranteed success, they either will do barely anything or straight up reject you.My point is, I'm not sure that giving up 30-40% in favour of doing less self-promotion is good, when talking about """"high-profile"""" publishers like Critical Reflex.
Reminder that real publishers are employers, never sign a publishing deal unless THEY pay YOU to WORK.
>seeking employment in a gigacorporationdo amerishits really?
>>539317645They wouldn't grab your game if it can't get 5k reviews on it's own. Basically >if they contact you vs if you contact themsituation.
>>539317758I'll provide an analogy to make my point more clear.Let's say there's a car mechanic who supposedly does "high quality work" and has a very good track record and client reviews. Yet when you actually look at his business strategy, the only cars he services are expensive cars (so rich clients) with relatively light problems that can be fixed quickly or done by the owner on their own.Essentially, that's how big indie publishers lime Devolver or Critical Reflex operate. They don't help actually small creators get somewhere, they parasitise off games with very obvious potential.

How common is it for a good game to do well without any promotion?
>>539319236Don't be lazy, promote your game. Your game can be the best game in the world but if nobody knows about it nobody will buy it
>>539318661Well uhhh.There are two characters in the vehicle, you don't really play as the female one but I can see now why you'd think that.
I don't believe publishers can help with promotion or funding much, I'm skeptical on that.But can a publisher help bypassing the sanctions? Has there been a precedent of this happening? I don't want to move to Kazakhstan just to post my shit hobby project on steam.
>>539319412That's how most Russian gamedevs get around it. They let the publisher deal with this shit. You get a lower percentage cut but also low expectation of contribution to development.
>>539319236
Since i delayed the release to get some more marketing in and get a better launch, i have more time to implement thingsthe game was suppose to have a management / roadtrip aspect which got cut because i didnt have the timei want it to sort of feel like a roadtrip where you can choose locationseach location would have its modifier and difficulty, which in turn gives you money to buy upgrades for your truckso its basically:day 1 -> one of three extra days (risk vs reward) -> day 2 -> ...this should spice things up a bitwill be interesting to implementim still sketching out a UI for choosing the locations

Added a subtle shake effect to scoring letters. Does it look good? Is it even noticeable?
I realize you have to be a bit delusional to solodev, whether you succeed or not. Your unconscious, primal brain is constantly reminding you the hubris and absurdity of your monumental task. The chance of success is so miniscule, yet your body continues to chip away at the block, hoping something of value will eventually take form. Yet we march on, in spite of the bleak circumstances. Yet we march on, in spite of the rational mind asking us "why bother?".
>>539325624Here it is without the shake for comparison

>>539326521you're wasting time, you should be learning monetization strategieshow many polys btw?
>>539326438>>539325906>>539326771Thanks for giving input with no bullshit. I posted this in a discord server and now one guy is going off about how my flashing could cause seizures
>>539327004you need a simple seizure warning at the beginning of your fucking game, dickhead, it's that simple. you're acting like it's a fucking crisis
>>539327004why are you lying
>>539327004>>539327263>>539327298ignore the discord fag and also don't put any warning
>>539327004put a seizure warning but make it cause seizures
>>539327004>and now one guy is going off about how my flashing could cause seizuresDid you ask him his pronouns?
>>539317626Into pause-menu and out of pause-menu animation, is not instant. Might be fine, but please double-check with a few other successful games whether their animation times are in a similar ballpark.Not feedback on the menu, but on the cannon before the menu: Is its animation choppy or something, when turning the camera? Try replaying it at 0.1x speed. I replayed at 0.25x speed, and it didn't seem right.
>Its ANOTHER "blueprint component randomly gets corrupted and causes a bug that I wasted hours trying to diagnose" episode Tim please. I make sure to close the editor every time I compile my project and you still fuck me.
>>539317626bro is there a demo for this, I didnt see one. I wanna test this
>>539322919Is writing "samefag" now a meme? Or was the imposter found? Amogus?
>>539327678>the blueprinter
>>539326783I'm just copying technical ideas from games I like and that are low tech enough it's obvious to the untrained eye how they did things, and then looking at the top search engine results for how to do that thing.>>539326894about 5k, which is more than I was shooting for, but I think as I learn more I can get more efficient on that
>>539325732I dunno about all that shit chief, I just think it's a fun hobby
Only frauds hate blueprints because they cant easily ctrl v stolen or generated code

There's not enough Alice...
Went with the strong shake, but toned down the flashing to just a highlight. When the piece flashed it kinda took away from the shake effect and was too distracting. I'm happy with this as the final effect.
>>539328805I like the enviorments a lot but the uniform anime template characters don't really do it for me
>>539328717blueprints are a waste of time
>>539327004so I can cause seizures with my game?? my motivation for gamedev has doubled
>>539329106this strong shake feels like something you'd use when the player tried to make an illegal move, not a reward for success. The subtle one is best imo.
It's a real fucking pain in the ass that you can't just run pico-8 in a browser on your phone. I just wanna do something semi-productive at work.
>>539328983Jargon has Alice!
>>539329292I write design documents and in game lore books while I'm at work.
>>539329269I like it as it is, but I appreciate the feedback. Illegal moves are banned anyways, you can't even click "PLAY" for words that aren't real or invalid piece positions.
>>539329106Can you flash above the wood tile layer but below the letter, in a different color? just slightly. maybe milk. I liked the stronger flash, but the shake is too much. I also didn't like 0 or small shakes, maybe they're too uniform and you can offset them by 1 pixel down or to the side.
>>539329515I need to learn to actually fcuking code game is the thing. It's infuriating that i only ever have the notion to practice when I don't have my computer
>>539328717>in 2030 the only "real programmers" left unassisted by AI will be Blueprint gamesGrim.
>>539329646I'll try that out, the flashing does make the letter hard to read.
>>539315585many have been saying thisyou need to retardmaxx if you want to make it in this economy
>>5393155852018 vs 2024thats the only difference, in 2018 you were ahead by releasing that, in 2024 you are behind
>>539329242stupid dickhead, you've never seen a seizure warning at the beginning of a motherfucking game?
>>539317626Those pulsing bug eyes are off-putting.
>>539315585Exiled Kingdoms is a much better game visually. That is to say, it looks primitive and servicible, while Archaelund is offputting and actively ugly and has that "baby's first asset flip" look that gamers have learned to associate with low effort sloppa.Which is a shame, the enviorments and cities are too good for the rest of the game.And also yea, 6 year gap in release,
>games are not artexplain this then
I win lol
