I can't code.I can't do art.
CHADgoon, incinerate this entire thread
You are forced to play a game with either art like this or arteficial inteligentce gene'd art which one are you choosing?

It makes your stuff good at side/semiside/bottom/top angles.Did some texturing,shading and also outlines.Next one is rigging and im done. This already took like 4-5 days of free time.

Success breeds jealousy, reporting in.
normie life is poor preparation for the jobby of gamedev.>school -> college -> degree -> job -> make a decent livingthis generally works. same with other normie pursuits like going to the gym or building your credit score.but gamedev doesn't respond predictably to hard work. you can be smart and work hard and still flop. or you can be a retard and make a game that appeals to other retards and be set for life.I don't know if this is encouraging or discouraging because I'm a hard working retard.

Everybody who's telling you "good games sell themselves" or whatever is either a retard, a steam shill, or both.The internet has changed. Forums died, social media is completely different now and mostly filled with bots, and its hard to even get traffic to a website now let alone get people to download something from it because Google throttles traffic to small websites.The environment that Minecraft, FNAF, Undertale, Cave Story succeed doesn't exist anymore.And anybody who says "good games sell themselves" operates under the false assumption that it still does.
>>543019170damn, good job. gonna take it all the way to texture, rig and silly mocap imports?
>making the snowball fight game>assumed this whole time I could just have a html5 embed on itch, and connect to my server on aws, but browser CORS rules prevent that>I'd have to host the game myself to have a web player that can connect to a dedicated server. Oh well, I guess people have to download it instead

If Tehsnakerer would play my game right now, he could literally make me rich overnight.But he won't.That's how evil basedtubers are.
>>543020150I've seen that done. I wouldn't do that.
>"good games sell themselves" is a lie>>prove it by posting good games that didnt sell>uhh but you'll just say theyre not goodever consider that maybe they aren't good? what makes you think they are?
The only shit you consider "good" is shit that sells a lot of copies, so by your logic even fucking call of duty and football games are good.
>>543019462>steam shillSteam explicitly tells devs to market their games themselves https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/marketing/bestpracticesso I don't think whoever says "just make good game" is a steam shill I think they just actually have no idea how steam works and think launching a game and hoping it gets discovered on steam and somehow goes viral from word of mouth is a thing.
>>543020943and whats your criteria for good? "uhhh because i say so"?
>>543020943try me.
Wow. You know this place is truly jeeted to the max when saying "just because it sells a lot doesn't mean it's good" is causing this much seethe.
>>543020943well yeah those games are fun, what of it?
>Unreal Engine makes your game look like plastic and kneecaps performance>Unity is made by absolute imbeciles and is filled with deprecated / half implemented featuresIs Godot really the only not shit engine?
>>543021136at least a hundred very positive reviews. after all it's those who played the game that decide whether it's a good game, not those who've just seen it and decided not to buy it.

>>543021435if you really cant tell the difference between these 100 review games and actually good games then you should give up on gamedev
>>543021423Godot isn't good either

>>543021651dont see why not
>>543021423>>543021661Everything you said here is stupid. You're looking for reasons why you can't make a game and blaming it on engines. Give godot a try and when you decide that sucks as well you can finally give up on gamedev.

>>543021423No Godot is shit too but I use it because at least nobody can remotely disable access to my projects because they think I owe them money. Game engines are always a case of pick your poison. And making your own engine is also poison.The important thing is to stick to your choice instead of engine-hopping
>>543021662>posts a game that had a team of career artists working on it
>>543021816It has 1% flat tax on online businesses and low regulation so it's simple to do
>>543021686players are the only ones who get a vote whether a game is good or not. I'm not interested in your vibes-based definition of a good game which boils down to your uninformed opinion.
>>543021317low iq post and false equivalency
>>543021952yes, that's why I said it's a skill issue. and those are two games: Bioshock Infinite and Dishonored.>>543021902get a brain MRI.
>>543021662Okay but that is UE3, which was back when the engine was still good (minus texture pop-in). It wasn't until UE4 and especially UE5 now that the engine has become a bloated mess that actively makes games look worse despite the huge performance impact a lot of it's features have. Don't even get me started on Nanite and Lumen, two features that murder performance just to save a couple hours of dev time.
I guess you were not arguing in good faith

>>543016670mirin. How long you've been modeling for?
>>543020943>>543021136"good" is subjective and doesn't mean anything which is why "just make good game" should be ignored. It doesn't mean anything."Market your game" does mean something. It's a concrete action that you can take to succeed. This is what causes lazy devs to say "nooo I'll just make good game and then the world will pay me". That's pipedreaming.

>>543021961I'm not a Hungarian accountant but a 1% online business tax should be pretty easy to confirm.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxation_in_Hungaryctrl+f 1% no resultsalso, you do realize that to actually be able to spend that money on non-business items, you will need to pay yourself a salary on which you need to pay income tax and mandatory social contributions?
>>543022365and no cause of death which bugs me to no end.but if you think your game needs to look anywhere close as good as those two games, you're very much mistaken.
>>543022439Normally I wouldn't respond to you for being an e-celeb cocksucker but this is a rare nugget of actual sense in your posting. It doesn't matter how good your game is, organic discoverability doesn't exist anymore, and you are right, you NEED to market your game at least somewhat.Now marketing itself being satanic and rigged is a whole another story, but yes it is absolutely necessary for success.

>>543022439Marketing a shit game won't make it sell nor will it make people play it. Cuffbust is a recent obvious example. Saying that "good" is subjective is a cop-out, because you can still take actionable steps to see what the broader market "subjectively" considers to be good and what they'll buy, and what their quality expectations are.

>>543023293>Marketing a shit game won't make it sell nor will it make people play it. Cuffbust is a recent obvious example.I can flip it on you by saying just because a game has a low amount of sales or reviews (less than 100) doesn't mean it's automatically bad. It simply just was never given a proper chance by the wider public to be judged whether it's actually good or not.
what makes a game? what is its function, it's purpose? why does it exist?I posit to you, gentlemen, that a game exists to be played. a game that is not played has failed at its primary directive. a game that is not played is bad
>>543023293>arguing for the sake of itIt never ends.>marketing won't make a bad game sellOkay and are you planning on selling a bad game? >Saying that "good" is subjective is a cop-outNo, the argument you just attempted was a cop-out. And you've proven your willingness to do this indefinitely, because you can't actually win any debate and just want to have the last word.
>>543024320is a game that's never released (and thus never played) bad?
Success breads jealousy
>>543023972nta but it doesn't mean that.it could mean the game is just alright. not bad but not amazing. and even if you showed it to 1 million people it would only gain 5 reviews.it could be in a saturated genre as well.

>>543024512You're quite literally retarded. You just agreed with me in a roundabout way.
>>543022439Incredible. You're calling black as white and white as black. Making a game good is the real hard work.

It simply just was never given a proper chance by the wider public to be judged whether it's actually good or not.Modern algorithms can calculate whether or not the wider public will judge it good or bad with a much smaller sample size than before. If a game has low sales, it's always bad.>>543024326>Okay and are you planning on selling a bad game?To be fair, the vast majority of devs are stupid and don't know if their game is bad or not until after they release and see the market feedback.
>>543024569>>543024925Stop calling everything slop.
>>543025023>the vast majority of devs are stupidnot only wrong but impossible. you're just talking out of your ass. you've never made a game.
>>543025204FYI the "don't know it's bad until it's out" works in reverse too. There are stories of old devs who were terrified when they shipped and had no idea they had just released an all time classic. After releasing Half-Life, co-founder Mike Harrington was in the shower when his wife asked him if the game was any good. He replied: "I don't know."
>>543020986There are no hidden gems idiot
>>543025186Its worse than slop, they don't even need a game to extract money from the goycattle. they just throw the money at crowdfunding campaigns on some empty promises
>>543023972I think you'll struggle to find many examples of this.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4lhQp245dwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCzhyUsDHPE
>>543025259I was referring to>the vast majority of devs are stupidthat's impossible. the vast majority of people are of average intelligence. the vast majority of devs are pretty likely to be smarter than average. if they can't tell whether the game they're working on is good or bad, it's not because they're stupid.
>>543024569https://store.steampowered.com/app/1332100/Starship_Simulator/>Players can choose to occupy one of a number of different roles on the ship, with each one presenting the player with unique and interesting gameplay challenges.Sounds like Star Trek Bridge Crew which was a VR game, it makes sense to make a PC non-vr game like this.

>>543025473I meant "stupid" as in "unable to tell if they made something good or not" rather than "below average intelligence," but if you want to go in that direction, the case could be made that devs are a dumb subset rather than smart subset because smart people wouldn't waste their own time on gamedev.
In order to succeed, you most be a pyschopath. You need to be able to mimic an autismo perfectly, and be able to manipulate and abuse steampigs.

>>543025804I use AI (for gooning) and I strongly recommend to never ever ever use AI for anything audiovisual-related for the foreseeable future.There was a time where I was hopeful that AI would enable artlets to pursue their dreams but that's not how it turned out. The hate for it is actually increasing especially among the 'gentlehearted videogame patron' crowd which is the exact people you don't want to offend. They really value the human touch which is why they buy shitty indies and word of mouth advertise them to begin with.If you're not an artist or don't have one in your contacts list, I question making the sort of game that requires higher-than-average amount of art assets.

They really value the human touch which is why they buy shitty indies and word of mouth advertise them to begin with.Which is funny. These people never go after big corps or studios who actually HAVE the money pay people, never go after the AI companies themselves for all the problems they have with them, and never after Steam for allowing AI with little to no oversight, but they attack and harass the individual indie dev without even trying to understand the situation (whilst being mad at normies for not giving each indie game a fair chance).

>>543027648>Kind of retarded to assume the people who love indie games to this extent are also avid corposlop consumers.You're retarded yourself, and misunderstood my post.What I meant is harassing and attacking individual creators for using AI is pointless and destructive (provided it's clear they were trying to make something actually good). If you have a problem with AI, take it up with the storefront that allows it, the AI company that made it or the big studios who would actually be "replacing jobs with them", because an individual indie dev would never be an employer for a wide arrangement of artists.

>>543028481Exactly like the entitled corporations that pay journos to write screeds about how gamers are le evil for not accepting the newest form of cost-saving, exploitative kikery. You forget the basic transaction here. They are giving you money for a product. Their bitching and moaning if its not up to their standards actually means something. Your bitching and moaning is just pathetic.
Compute Shaders, how do they work?More specifically: with Unity's system, is there a way to "chain" two different dispatch so the second one only start working after the first one?Or does any treatment that need to happen sequentially need to be on the same dispatch?Trying to replace my Jobs code with Compute Shaders for better performance, and I can't find an equivalent to dependencies chains.
>>543026965Don't mix up genetics with diet lmao
>>543028720>>543028760>Consumers pay moneyYeah right. Fuck off back to /v/ retard.Ask any indie dev and every single one will confirm that the largest amount sales a dev gets is only when they have discounts bigger than half the price where the devs barely make any money.This is so prevalent that even this meme pic exists.You also fail to consider that devs also have expenses in development but I suppose a /v/tard wouldn't understand this either way.

>>543029058If devs want to make money then maybe they should be making better games instead of crying about being unable to exploit their customers. At this point I'm so sick of entitled devs that I don't even buy on sale, I only pirate, because entitled devs don't even deserve a single penny of my money.

>>543029502Good for you, I wonder if you'd keep this mindset when you release your own game.Oh wait, that's right, you don't have a game.

>>543029502The crowd that shrieks about AI the loudest actually does buy shit at full price, right after release. As someone who refuses to buy anything that doesn't have at least -70% it specifically piqued my curiosity why people would do that: turns out they really love handcrafted indie slop that much.These are also the steam dumpster divers that word of mouth anything with a glimmer of potential up to the surface, that doombabies still deny exists (there's 7 million ludokino masterpieces rotting in obscurity guys, trust me and don't even bother making a game!)
>made a new 3d girl model>already fell in love with her
I havent bought a single non-multiplayer game since i discovered how to pirate.Why would i spend money on something i can get for free?
I wonder if games (and videos and books) released before AI will be more valuable in the future because they're handcrafted and we won't know what's made by AI in the future.or maybe no one will care?I find myself skipping recent Youtube videos that show something supposedly worth seeing because I just assume it's AI.

I wanna try to see if I can sort of have a design doll render and then use it with koikatsu costume and haircuts in a new separate render and then use that as my sketch to draw the lines and 2D masks.

If you don't want me to use AI voice acting in my game you're free to voice act in it yourself. Yes (You) in particular.
>>543030440It's hard to tell if a game is good or not until after you've played it. That's why piracy is absolutely vital as it allows players to tell if a game is good without risking their precious money.

Why are some retards on here unable to grasp in their tiny little brain that people come to this general for more than just making games.Not everyone here wants to make a game and thats ok.
>>543031414I mean you can just take a look at CGI in cinema. Outside of a couple of dorks seething nobody really cares. If it's used and done well, fine. If not, then bad.The exact same will apply to AI once all the troons die out.
>>543030464Honestly that workflow sounds too complicated. Do you mean you will design a doll, then render two parts and layer them, then use it as the base for a 2D sketch, then turn the sketch into a drawing?
>>543031531Finish your character designs already.
>>543031596Well cgi is still worse than real decorations, than you watch old cinema its clearly visible, ai shit will be even bigger downgrade but everyone will still consume it
>>543030339You don't seem to understand how things go viral. But that's fine, it's irrelevant to you anyway.

It's funny that anyone here thinks they personally will prosper when AI assets are normalized, as if the ones who are already eternally ahead of them won't just use it to become even faster.

>>543041745You're right, very rarely is the dumped lore anything special either, just basic bitch worldbuilding cloned from other generic worldbuilding. Most of it can be outsourced to NPCs in the first town, opt-in lore for players who give a shit.
>>543041745I myself enjoy a lore dump. Nothing harmful comes from it, especially when it's for a video game where the main point is always the gameplay and the player character's perspective.Honestly i feel that complaint to become way to pessimistic, used by pretentious YouTube reviewers and it has spread all over.Nostalgia Critic ruined a generation of reviewers.

That's a good way to build suspence for a character when everyone around the player is afraid of them.And if Kefka really only has such low screen time, well then all i can say about him from what you said about him is that i'm sure no one would mind if NPCs talked more about the stuff he gets up to, even for things that get the imagination to run wild.In fact, you telling me about Kefka instead of showing me anything about him right now is giving me a good experience with him. Poisoning a well and getting sand in his boots? Sounds like a fun SpongeBob gag. I'm chuckling as i write this.

I find the rise in fake assets to be interesting.Like assets that technically could be displayed in a game engine but are so unoptimized that using them requires rebuilding them from the ground up in most cases.

I released a new patch for The Eastern Flower. The biggest new feature is that the enemy player now has access to mortars too. The enemy mortars "shoot and scoot" to avoid counter-battery fire.Patchnotes: https://chaikadev.itch.io/the-eastern-flower/devlog/1086980/version-072-patchnotes
it's impossible to define what makes a perfect game, cause perfection is subjective. actually some people find imperfection more satisfying.the only thing you can have as an orientation that is really reliable is your own feelings towards your game. or consumer feedback.everything where you "guess" what people want is purely theoretical and not reliable.that's why i'd say the best thing to do is using your own preferences as an orientation to define the value of your game. if you like it, it's good. if it satisfies your needs, it's good enough.good enough is the goal.
>>543048341How about you start with "exists" before you work on "good enough"
Happy friday /agdg/, I got my basic enemy AI working now I'm setting up a way to define and use Actions before I start working on other stuff. I'm having a lot of fun learning how to make my game. What are you guys up today?

hey aggy diggyi've dropped my old project (for now) since i dont really believe in it anymore, but i think i got a lot of valuable exp that i can use for future stuff. that being said, what to do in the future is the question.i've never actually released a game, but my main interest is multiplayer games. that being said, is it better to do a single player or multiplayer game?like, i basically never play single player games, and i am much more a coder than an artist, so i feel like i am more angled toward taking on something more difficult coding wise than i am something more on the artistic side, which makes me think multiplayer is the way to go. but considering i've never even made a game (thats been sold), its questionable if I can make something of enough quality to actually garner the audience that multiplayer games would demand. additionally, the previous project i was working on was multiplayer (albeit p2p), so i already have a bit of experience in that field, but i wouldnt say enough to be industry standard or release worthy or anythingwhat do you guys think? make some simple single player stuff to experience the whole pipeline or fixate on multiplayer which has a bigger risk but bigger reward?
im trying to build up the courage and pressure to start on my game again
having a plan b is like pretending to be in love with a woman, yet always looking for backup options on tinder.
>>543049471You have to make what you know and love or it's an even bigger crapshoot that you'll likely lose interest in.
>>543048232
>>543049471There's nothing really wrong with continuing with multiplayer, but multiplayer doesn't inherently offer "bigger rewards", especially not multiplayer-only games. You're most likely having trouble with game design, and not really any particular implementation detail.
>>543049471Multiplayer lives or dies on a playerbase unfortunately. I wouldn't do it because of that inherent risk.
>>543049979i guess more i mean bigger self fulfillment rewards, since it is something i like better so i'd like be able to develop something of a higher quality. also theres a lot of singleplayer indieslop so i feel as though it stands out slightly more, but i suppose theres a lot of multiplayer indieslop too so i am probably completely wrong
>>543050298right, that is a factor to consider
>>543049471most people never finish a game. Do whatever gives you the highest chance of making it to market

>>543050404feels like most indie games fall into one of these categories. >streamerbait - quick turnaround low effort slop with a weird hook(drugs, janky controls, multiplayer, reddit/twitch memes) hoping a big streamer plays it and their viewers all buy it.>copypasta of a popular game with a 'twist' - vampire survivors but werewolves, balatro but solitaire.>uncreative passion project - could be anything, usually bland clones that end up in development hell.>creative passion projects - usually the games that are actually good and become the jumping off point for the copypasta games.you also have the indie 'devs' who follow the saying 'during a gold rush, sell shovels.' which is 90% of youtube indie dev content.
>>543038097b-b-but i think it might be nice if maybe there were just some fish an area and they didn't attack you and you just got to hang out and enjoy there being fish for just that one area ok?
the most fucked thing about this life is that you might have a golden idea and not even realize it, because there is no way to verify other than finishing a product and trying. but you only have so much lifetime, energy and budget to finish ideas.seriously if you'd design a video game like real life, 99% of the playerbase would quit and the 1% left would just be bored, because they have nobody to dominate.
I want to make an Amogus style game
>>543052963It’s so ass
can you use AI to translate your steam page to japanese or is there somebody you can pay to do it for you
>>543053246AI is good enough for most cases.
>>543052963you also have the weird variable of people falling in love with some random shit that no one would ever think was a good idea.
>>543053246I'd just do an AI translation and then find someone who will look over it for $50 to make sure it isn't total gibberish.
>>543053412>>543053521can I use deepl, thats what the anime girls on youtube use to translate english to japanese
>>543053246Use deepseek for Asian languages
>>543049449Please do your part in keeping our public spaces clean from your dogshit I'm-12-and-this-is-deep opinions.
oh never mind, i dont want any japanese peoepl to look at my steam page and think im disrespecting them with bad ai japanese... better not let them see my game on steam...
i feel very lost as to what i wanna do in lifeif i could choose where id be in 5-10 years, id pick gamedev, indie or big, over anything else, even for lower payim unsure if studying computer science / software engineering is the right choice for thisi dont care about much else, scientific and theory, i dont wanna work in science and i feel like thats all we're learninglike im getting deep into shit i have zero interest ini feel like every decision i make, isnt optimal enough to reach my dreamslike the best is already over...
>>543054174>im unsure if studying computer science / software engineering is the right choice for thisIt is. You're already more accomplished than 99% of zoomers will ever be.
>>543054174Tech is already oversaturated and undergoing massive layoffs every year. I would pursue a different career.
>>543054174Well you may not be interested in your degree contents, but as long as you accrue enough inescapable student loan debt to never be free from the system that's all that matters
>>543054174Welcome
>>543054669Funny enough the shit he bitched about seems to be the type of software dev I know IRL. They make web software for biochem companies.
>>543054174Is this a Cloverpit-like?
>>543052963>but you only have so much lifetime, energy and budget to finish ideasAnd you're wasting it here of all places LMAOOOOOOOO
>>543052465lol my dropped project was exactly a fighting gamenot even sure im gonna drop it but it is a motherfucker of difficulty. just seems really dumb to do considering how small and critical the playerbase is, if i fuck up even a little bit my game will be crucified
>>543054864I'm pretty sure he's talking about mathematical proofs. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_methods) It has nothing to do with biochem. At my school, it's shit that they made Computer Science degree do, but not Software Engineering.
>>543055281Well science is a broad scope so idk what he meant, I also know someone that works in science and it's all R programming
>>543052963>you might have a golden idea and not even realize it, because there is no way to verify other than finishing a product and tryingYou're supposed to share your idea and your game even when you're just starting development, then you can gauge whether it's a good idea. Not just make an entire game and then throw it on the market and see what happens lmaoNot to detract from the rest of your existential crisis point which is valid but just saying.
>>543054174Don't overthink it
>>543054174>like the best is already over...You said yourself gamedev is what you want to do in the future, which means it's the best thing for you, and nobody is making you stop gamedev. Therefore the best isn't over.
>Get everything working>Not sure what to do now
>>543056189Project hop!
>>543054174You are still young

Just learned to use koikatsu in blender.
>>543056189Post it on itch and drop the link.
>>543056406Prompt?
>>543054174yeah i wish i did software engineering instead of computer sciencebut it's well accepted in the SE industry that college degrees pretty much just cover the basics. juniors are basically hopeless at accomplishing any sort of REAL important taskat the same time im not sure if there's any better higher education route for a game developer. gamedev specific degrees are at best overly oriented towards learning the AAA slop workflows, and at worst an outright scam
>>543054174You already made a game and you’re not even done with school. You’ll be fine bro. You may have to do gamedev on the side while working a non-game related software job. But that’s probably better than being in the game industry considering how cancerous it is nowadays.
>>543058639Just make the effort to learn to code on your own to a reasonably high standard. It's possible to do a whole CS degree and come out of it unable to solve even the most basic programming problem. This is why the interview process for the entire software industry consists of the humiliation ritual of algorithm tests and take-home assignments to build some example project so the employer can be reasonably certain that you know what a for loop is because just having a CS degree isn't enough. Also don't forget to do all the unpaid internships so you can get work experience which you apparently also need alongside the degree to get an entry-level job. That is if companies are hiring for those again by the time you graduate, and some Indian or AI hasn't taken the job first.
>>543056381NTA but I'm 24 and I wanna kms
Survival horror, but you open a door and a woman screams "HAVE SEX INCEL" at you
>>543060073I like it but what if you could have sex?With the woman I mean?
>>543054174If you're the guy making wasteland bites, keep at it, it has strong potential.I'm probably twice your age, and I'd much rather than be in your position of being young and full of uncertainty of the future than my current position of being old and regretful of a wasted life.
>>543022467>WFH job in the games industry insteadare we just pulling stuff out of our asses now
>>543059452your reading comprehension is poor
>>543060330nta but eleventh hour games and crate are 100% wfh studios(it shows unfortunately).
>>543055147That is one advantage to being a solo dev if you present yourself earnestly you get some extra brownie points with the community if you fuck upWhy not try and tackle a smaller multiplayer focused project first to level up your skills?
>>543060735WFH is genuinely bad for work where collaboration is critical, like gamedev. It should only be used for bullshit email jobs to parasitically drain money from big tech companies.
>>543061071Maybe.I'm convinced it would work fine if everyone had clear roles.i.e. an artist, a sound design and a programmer all working together
you mean the whole indie dev making an MMORPG thing isn't a pipe dream anymore?
Whatever. It. Takes.

Around 100 games release on Steam alone EACH DAY.About 700 games in the week around your release.AAA release? Successful release AAA or indie, in your genre? BOOM you are done.Also, not only are you competing with other new releases, but the entire backlog of games on every system a player owns. :)Take all the "indie success stories" you can think of in the past 10 years and divide it by the number of devs in that time who have tried (again, 100 games a day, 3000 a month) and there's your historical likelihood of "making it."Steam cut, higher self-employment taxes, no benefits, no retirement, AND to top it all off: Your sales diminish over time, so even if you hit this "mediocrity lottery" you'll have to do it all over again in a couple years.>He thinks that indie gamedev can provide a sustainable primary income in 2025HahahahahaH O B B YOBBY
question: should i reach out to streamers ASAP or wait until closer to the nextfest before my release so it has more attention in nextfest?>>543052649>balatro but solitairehi

>>543062157>thing that isn't a get rich quick scheme isn't a get rich quick schemego figure
>>543062278So juicy. That looks nice.I don't know anything about streamers, but I think reaching out asap would be wise.
>>543062157>keeps refining this shitpasta for years on end not to make it funnier but to try and make an actual convincing argument>still always amounts to "it's not guaranteed free gibz for me it hard it too haaarrrd"
>>543057163Cute.
>>543054174Get a job on something that does not require high responsibility and do gamedev on the side. It's a job. I bet having a real job in the game industry would erode your soul away faster.
>>543049391>look to get into gamedev>watch devduck>really impressed with his ability to work on a game while maintaining a healthy lifestyle balance>he had only released a shitty mobile game but he had still released a game>he was beginning to make his dream game>feel this immerse pressure to catch up to him>find him very inspiring>5.5 years later>he's still working on the same game and doesn't seem to be much closer to finishing his game>i've completely surpassed him>the man that used to once inspire me is now the type of developer I look down upon for making a game that is simultaneously too ambitious yet generic and boringI still like him as a human being but fuck me am i glad you guys bullied me into becoming a yesdev. This could have easily been my fate.
QUIT NOW YOU'RE DONE OKAY!?IT'S OVER!IT'S NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN!AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Let me get this straight, aggy wants to SELL a videogame while there are FREE itch games miles better than their project?I do not understand? Is aggy's game so unique and or fun that it justifies a worse product?I am only half joking, what is the logic here.
>>543043430Handsome fella
Everything will be okay in the end.If it's not okay, then it's not the end.
>>543064067Many youtube devs just outright say they don't care when they finish their game which is really sad because they initially start the project fully intending to make the game. But when they admit they're happy to spend X amount of years working on the game they are admitting a dark and terrible thing, unfathomable almost, which is that their dreams are dead and they don't even care.
heh, videogames
cup fulla claude got me feelin like tokyospliff
>>543064226What are your favourite free itch games better than (gmi) aggy games?

>Start tackling something on my to do list>Have it categorised as 'Easy'>Finally finish it 3 hours laterHeh. Well, it's done at least.
>>5430669753 hours is easy, that's nothing
>>543066952Not that dev by the way. Not that it matters to seetheanon he's going to obsess over that dev anyway.
>>543066429meds
>>543056381>guys I have literally no skills and am a 25 year old NEET with at least one mental illness. can I still /makeit/?This was me when I started. now I'm a yesdev.the important thing is to use skills you're bad at with the intent to improve in the long term.
>>543065429Yeah, make them spin while keeping the head static.
>>543054174I got a comp sci degree and now work professionally in the industry.You might feel like the scientific stuff doesn't relate to gamedev, but if you can learn it then you'll be very valuable to studios.Someone has to do the hard low level engine work to make industry games work, and if you can do it you make the big bucks like me.
>>543054174Why the fuck do we call it science? It would make sense if you were learning physics for making nano-sized computer components and quantum computing, but if you're just a web developer, just call yourself a god damn web developer
>>543066315No, just gravity, I want the player to jump planet to planet with the magic circles I made and let the gravity of the objects do the job.
>>543067081In my monster catcher I just didn't want the battle to end abruptly once the player's monster or enemy monster's health reached 0. I just wanted a simple text pop up that says "[losing monster] has been defeated!" and then for the player to have to click 'Okay' for the battle to end.But because of how complex my spaghetti code is for all the different battle states, yeah it took way longer than it should have. Every change would cause some issue I hadn't thought about earlier so I was playing bug whack-a-mole for a few hours. Woulda been quicker if I wasn't being distracted by a podcast and then music I guess.
>>543067583>he doesnt know
>>543067583
>>543067695I typically tell devs to not rewrite their shit, but if it's causing you pain to make changes you should refactor.
>>543066952>>543067284I see I'm right over the target. I will continue
>>543067623How much would you charge for this
>>543068357I was thinking $20 and $15 on sale.
>>543068517Stop replying for other people
>>543067967>>543068102I'm genuinely curious because a google search returned what I thought: "computer science is just regular developer shit lmao"
>>543068180Sometimes I get tunnel vision and it's like "The only way I can amend this 700 line script in order to make this change is to also go back and make these [insert however many changes need to be made] in order to get it to work". Maybe there's a more obvious workaround without having to refactor but it feels right anyway. Like I'm probably making it how it should be anyway as I add more complexity and interconnections.It won't be ready for the next demo day but I'm hoping all the basic combat stuff is wrapped up soon so I can quickly model some monsters to replace the cubes and show you guys a webm or 2.
Are you making a game primarily in order to sell it or in order to play it yourself?
>>543068789Oh... wow. Computer systems are predicated on binary code, an aspect of discrete or "pure" mathematics. Before the emergence of computer science a lot of mathematicians thought this was a beautiful but mostly useless, impractical field of math. But look at how it's changed the world now.
>>543068982The latter but I'm gonna try to make some money off it too
>>543068517Not my answer....>>543068357I am still deciding, the price probably will be between 15$ to 10$ and for countries with lower incomes it will be lower than that too. I am still deciding which price I should put and I will reading the comments and expectations of the players,viewers and youtubers to determinate the final price. The game it's expected to launch around March - April of 2026, so I still have time to think about it.
>>543067695>my monster catcher

>>543075319guns and nuns should be $7.77
Yet another greedy entitled indie dev. trying to scam hard working consumers by charging way too much again. This is why I always only pirate indie games and encourage others to pirate indie games.

>>543078007merge dungeon watchers and guns and nuns codebases
>>543075319No offense but your game isn't ultrakill, the finnicky gravity alone plus weird map design where you allow players to just do a 180 spin around a platform whenever they want and however many times they want(probably breaks the balance, besides being hard to aim and jumping backwards can transition you into a gravity shift where in fast shooters you want to have stability of knowing where you land and that your aim remains the same)then there's pistols blocking both sides of your FOV because you decided to put them too high.I don't think pricing it over 8-10(10 base before discount) is smart.

>>543079082I know it's not ultrakill and that's why the price I plan to set will never be above 15$, that's just a limit I made based in all the other games I saw, I still have time to decide, so I will let people in social media express their reactions in the following months and then I will decide.>the finnicky gravity alone plus weird map design...You forgot portals.
>>543081769>not making him a strong wheelchair person to cut on animation and anti-cut on representationBe better.
>>543082801Cool features on their own, no doubt. but they lack being joined together in a way that elevates them, via map design. When a player is chased off the map into a gravity shift and loses orientation, how is that a good feature? Control is a core principle in gameplay. long recovery frames? annoying. walkNtalk segments? anti game design. losing your orientation without intending to? hurts the experience.
Day 17. I skipped day 16 due to a doctor's appointment. Tried to make it possible to blast the vehicle you're riding on like in Halo 3.The slop is starting to pile up. This is the client visualization, and the desyncs aren't being interpolated very smoothly. Aside from that, there are obvious rig and animation issues. I'm going to push through the slop for the rest of the month and fix it afterwards.

>>543085892landsword is the most gmi aggy game rnacrolyte is probably gmi too but he doesnt have a steam demo so hes missing on a lot of traction
>>543085337If I do that, then all level design will become pointless.... think about it, if the player can have control over the gravity, they can skip all the obstacles I create, reach places they are not supposed to reach, the magic circles for jumping between platforms become useless because the player will not need them and portals become useless too for the same reason.
I think the more involved your gameplay and story are the less you have to rely on high quality assets(graphics/audio) to sell your game as an indie.>dwarf fortress>cruelty squad>psx horror>path of achra>demon falls(demon spire 2)>gone home>the witness>animal well>outer wilds
>>543086918youre not wrongsee yooka laylee vs yooka replayleeor banjo kazooie beta vs release ver
>>543086918lawd have mercy
>>543086918I like your design
>>543086918i like your two big designs
>>543061595yeah i just used chatgpt to write a blender python script to automate making FPS hand models from full player modelssince im doing some bone merging stuff i had to make sure it had only some specific bones and vertex groups in a specific order
>>543086918Okay turning them off outright might be too much but if you called it Focus Fire, and it made her rotate less that would maintain some of the orientation that other anon is looking for.
>>543088091well damn.
>>543056381I'm glad to see that nothing has changed about /agdg/ since1693696229697224 = Saturday, September 2, 2023 11:10:29.697 PM
>>543088091how do u play this game?
>>543056381i have the skills but not the determination
>Surface BreakerI added a display controls in case people forget which buttons do what. It will dynamically change based on going to controller or keyboard as well.
>>543088781>It will dynamically change based on going to controller or keyboard as well.nice
>>543088091This card sucks.
>>543088091Man, so close
>>543080549>we're entering a golden age for story gamesI released my story game and nobody played it though how do you explain that, bitch?
>>543086918
>>543088629Determination is how you acquire skills. I doubt you have any worth writing home about.
>>543088920your game sounds awesome
>>543028868>is there a way to "chain" two different dispatch so the second one only start working after the first one?I don't think so.
>>543087592>called it Focus Fire, and it made her rotate less that would maintain some of the orientation that other anon is looking for.You are tempting me to include Max Payne bullet time mechanics in the game.
>>543088091I don't feel represented

https://store.steampowered.com/search/?sort_by=_ASC&publisher=ScumheadThis guy released 4 games for free(I checked on steamdb and they were never paid) before starting to charge for his games. he just released Mohrta which is doing pretty good, like his other paid games.Interesting strategy.
>>543091732scumhead is like cris on steroidsabsolutely deranged guyhis platformers are janky as hellhes really into /x/ stuff and that brings interesting lore to his games

>>543094205have you tried eating more? the energy you expend chewing and digesting food could put you in a caloric deficit and you'll start losing weight.
>>543094205Stop stuffing your face. Count calories. Get used to being hungry. Embrace the suffering.t. lost ~100 lbs over 2 years
>>543093821which game
>>543094385>>543094412sorry i lied.. im actually extremely underweight but wanted to make bocchiposters look bad
>>543094205gamify your eating. Use an app like mynetdiary. set a goal and every time you eat something, record it in the app. ezpz
>>543094609That kind of thing will get you banned.

I'm a 33 year old nodev and I want to know if people will finally take me seriously when I say how depressed I am and how hopeless my life is as I've been saying it since I was 18 and they didn't know I was already too old then for my dreams to be realized

I'm trying to learn working in 3d. I'm using Godot and the Animation Trees. I kind of need to talk this out because I'm not sure exactly what to do here now.I've got everything working mostly fine- my attacks call specific animations in the animation tree and I've got my weapons parented to my model, all good. The problem is that I'm not sure how to really get my animations working with shooting properly. I think it's a blending issue but I don't really know. What happens is that if I, say, jump then attack, the character will shoot from the position of their arms, since that's where the gun is parented, and their arms will be in the air because they're jumping so the bullet will shoot straight up. Either I need to animation to transition somehow and only shoot when it's facing forward or... something. I get what's going on but I don't really understand the best way to do what I'm trying to do.
>>543096673call her eva
>>54309694314 year olds with no experience just get on and do it. https://borsheblock.itch.io/falemorjust dive in. follow a tutorial. slap some assets together.

Can I move to Norway and make a game there to get funded by the government? Surely if they think Dustborn is worthy of investment I could get away with it too right?
>guise I'm really old and for whatever reason still haven't finished a thing o noesYou've probably just been hopelessly addicted to constant distraction/self-soothing through content for all those years. Many (about 95% of the western population and expanding into other cultures) such cases!Next time a post like that comes up I'd like to see the anons screen time attached. lol
>>543097759I live in Norway, and those funds are reserved for nepos and lefties who shill DEI garbage. They receive millions in funding despite making games with few players and minimal revenue, while developers who actually create successful titles, like Dani and the Keep on Mining dev, get ZERO.
>>543097525Follow any how to polish your game tutorial. If your game is small like that, it's no big deal.
>>543097759We're full.
>>543098109Forgot to mention pic related. They got TWO projects funded a month after Dustborn flopped big time. This shit pisses me off so much.
>>543097759make the cast of your party racially diverse,sexually diverse and communist and the villain is a rich straight white maga man and you might get funded

smugging this place out
i need money
it worked (the ra*****t)he predicted this
>>543097130Why are you letting your shooting be driven by the animation direction in the first place? Usually shooting is done from the camera, and your gun only plays the animation and VFX.Decouple the bullet from your gun position.
>>543098903please look up armpits and elbows topology. 5/6 extra tris go a long way.
>>5431005845/6 extra is too much my limit is 256 triangles
