>>543538382How's it feel knowing you'll never have to work after your game releases?
>>543532278the writing is corny man, try hitting up small pokemon youtuber but its a no from me big dawg
>50 games released on steam each daythere is hope, this is what the average one looks like
>>543532278The number one thing you need to fix is the aspect ratio on the fonts. It's an instant red flag for a low-effort asset flip.
>>543542635sounds more promising than VTMB2
>>543542635>The art is placeholder.
>Game where you're a dog avoiding roaches and shocks
If $100 is such little money for fatfuck gabencunt he won't even bend over to pick it up on the street, and he allows >>543542635 on his store, what's the point of the fee then?
>he is fat saar he is fat and brown why you defend gaben fix the algorithms saar!
>>543543021He should really increase it to $10k, but he probably also doesn't want to needlessly stir up any waves of backlash from unemployed turdies like you.
>>543543207As if you can afford a $10000 submission fee.
>>543543329xhe can, xhe is getting paid a lump sum for posting the same garbage in here daily!!!
>>543543329I live in the US and have an engineering degree.
You should just like make a good game and market it and stop crying. Maybe do that.
>>543543678Well now I know you can't afford 10k
>>543543725I will not market it. Sorry but I'm just not gonna do it.
>>543543752Lol. That would be true if I was a zoomer I guess.
>>543543678h1b visa or whatever tf its called was a mistake
i am tired...
>>543543725I'm a gamedev, not a marketeer.
>the steam defender really was a saarWtf..
>>543542635Good or bad its still going to fling your game off the new games page after one hour and out of peoples reccomendations making your game impossible to find organicly just casually browsing steam and only through looking for it by searching up the name which means unless you already had plenty of fans before making your game you're kind of cooked.
>>543544168Not that it really matters, but if you must know, I'm a chang.
>Bokube is the steamsimp
>>543544415haha
Speaking of steam I've just booted it up, it had to update, but the dialogue box was in russian... now it's loaded and it's in english
>>543544139Being a solo indie gamedev makes you a small business owner and requires that you understand business and marketing. If you want to purely work on the game development side, you should really go find a job at a studio.
I made Pong now what.
>>543544719Uhm.... uh... well uh maybe if you're ready for your dream game that. Or brick breaker... idk I never thought someone would fall for it

>>543544931This is useful thanks.
>>543544641I don't want to dev other people's games I want to dev my game.
>>543544294>unless you already had plenty of fans before making your game you're kind of cookedWHAT DO YOU THINK MARKETING ISHAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF IT?MARKETING?Ever wondered why it's even a topic of conversation here? MARKETING?
>>543545167Well you can do that.>but I also want to make money Then you should try to understand marketing. Or try to get a publisher who does. Just do anything besides ending up like this other anon who cries about steam and megabonk all day. Do anything to avoid being a crab. It's a terrible fate.
Marketing used to be posting pictures and short videos on social media. Seriously go look at Notch's old posts on twitter and /v/. He wasn't a marketing genius he just shared progress and asked for feedback. Now that kind of content gets no engagement. You need to consistently engage with social media, consistently post attention grabbing clips, and consistently hop on meme bandwagons. I'm not bitching about it I'm just saying its the reality, marketing is a lot harder than it used to be and you guys need to accept that marketing is a import thing to do, almost as important as making your game even.
your thoughts on the mindset of doing everything for free as best as you can. until demand for your products becomes so big that you get paid without almost naturally, without being desperate for it?
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO i just got a millions dollar idea i can make with chatgpt
>>543530763I love this game.

Respond to me with a demo and I'll play it and give feedback :)If anyone wants to return the favor, my demo is on steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3176830/Monster_Freaks/
>>543545619The first step to marketing has always been to make a good, fun game that people want to play. Go make Hytale right now. I can guarantee you that all you'll get more social media engagement than you can handle without even trying.
there is only one mindset that works. being fearless and not worrying about the future. just doing what you want in the moment. everything else is constant back and forth between motivation and giving up.
>>543540986>just realized that autistic kid is blind
>>543545619>Now that kind of content gets no engagement.You sure about that? The basis of marketing for an indie dev hasn't changed, you post your game and share it on the internet and if it gets completely ignored you should probably not be making it. I would say at minimum share a game over a month or two and see.
>>543546079Uhhhhhhh cp2077 is SLOP! How dare you to like a popular game?
>>543546242>just doing what you want in the momenti'll never finish my game if i coom all the time

>>543546591the reason you wanna finish your game is fear. and fear causes stress. and stress makes you exhausted. and exhaustion makes you lazy.
>>543546849Yeah it's going to fail financially, but that's cool. I never thought this game would blow up. It's my first game and isn't meant to revolutionize anything. I'm just making a game inspired by some of the games I loved as a kid; notably: doom, commander keen, and ZAMN. it's not my dream game just a first step toward it. :)

>>543547735Pocketwatching implies envy, and I'm certainly not envious of that. I'd call it market research and confirming my own biases that all action arcade games are destined to flop.>>543548021You can. It's called market research.
I've been thinking about this whole "you don't need a hook".But like, what they actually mean is that you don't need a GAMEPLAY hook.Because when they mention setting, and narrative or whatever, those are all still hooks. There's always a hook somewhere.
>>543547928Pocket watcher.

>>543548387You can't win every poker hand even if you play optimally, but by playing optimally, you're guaranteed to win in the long run vs people who aren't.
>>543548492HVLY FVARKKKKKKKKKK
do you want to make a game you like, or do you want to figure out the secret formula to making the game that will make you rich?there's a huge difference.the first is possible, the second will lead to endless unfinished games and lots of shitposting.
>>543548251Like cuphead? Like vampire survivors?Like castle crashers, bro force, or tower fall?
>>543535559megabonk's gameplay loop provides plenty of dopamine but the frequent unlocks early on do helpit's not a perfect game but what it does it do pretty well
>>543455459Mario wouldn't walk like that
>>543455459Just cause I like sports doesn’t mean I don’t like Lolis
>>543548409i saw this game getting a lot of attention in social media, this is sad
>>543548492Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well.
>>543548651This. I got into devving to make games I want to play but don't exist, sure, I can hope other people like it too, but I'll never make a game purely for money. I'll never look at what games are selling well and try doing what they're doing. I'll never make a gatcha game on mobile full of hundreds of micro transactions and loot boxes>Youll die brokeBut at least I'll be happy.
>>543548572go back to your birth gender, pedotroon
>Plays the game for 5 minutes>"This game is a trash asset flip and looks like shit! The dev should kill himself">Continues playing for another almost 4 hours?

>>543549257that's not what progress means in the context of this thread you nodev retard
Yes, I’m a crab. Yes, I pocketwatch. Yes, I analyze Steam wishlists and follow every eceleb. Yes, I scroll subreddits to seethe at trending posts. Yes, I obsessively check crowdfunding pages for potential hits. Yes, I track launch dates. Yes, I punch my pillow whenever devs hit the top selling charts. Yes, I compare my ideas to everyone else’s. Yes, I weep into my keyboard while calculating their sales per day.
>>543549317Okay, so you saying >all arcade action games are destine to flopIsn't the exact same thing?
>>543546559How dare you* like(No "to")
>>543548409>Release your game at the same time as 2 other massively anticipated and hyped up games>Suprised it flopsRetard moment.
>>543549027If he reviewed your game you effectively made it btw.
>>543548492i look like this
>>543548985"you'll die broke" is a fear tactic. it's like your bad gf telling you you'll die alone if you leave her.
>>543532278Did the /fit/ fantasy dev who is obsessed with bbc cuck porn make this?
>>543548409>Hi I made an underwhelming but superficially interesting looking game, but released after the national tragedy that was 9/11 AMA

>>543548409>50k wishlists in 10 months for 11 players median>200k wishlists in a year for 89 players median (cuffbust)Shartowski told me that if I have le wishlist velocity I will make it tough!!!! Curious!!
>>543549571You're right. That statement was a hyperbolic exaggeration. Correction: Action arcade games have a much stronger tendency to flop given the same amount of skill, effort, and polish that goes into it, as compared to more crafty-buildy simulation strategy games.
>>543546079>just start a business bro
Devs are still paying him 400 dollars for his courses
>>543549708The point is, i'm not afraid.
>>543548572sorry but i outgrew ragebaiting with lolis (i never liked them i just wanted (you)s but now it's boring)im a hagCHAD but the jap artists i follow also draw lolis from time to time so...
>>543550003The wishlist velocity he talks about is resting wishlist velocity, which does not include wishlists you get from actively promoting the game.
>>543546783This probably work
>>543550214People are just not buying games anymore. The kikes drove the world into another recession and now the plebian masses don't have any disposable income for the foreseeable future. Mazal tov.
>>543548572>>543549479stop masturbating to little girls
>>543550493Fuck off grannyfucker
>>543549547I look like this.
>>543550393I took one look at the channel and realised it's an indian impersonating that jap youtuber. They only make videos about Minecraft and GTA Online RP or whatever. They don't do game reviews.
>>543550369Nah it's just cope from you because he has been proved wrong over and over, you have to be retarded to listen to him and feel comfortable because you're getting wishlists, I worked in internet marketing and anything that is low friction like "click on wishlist" is a meaningless metric. Of course it's bad if you can't even get people to do that but that's besides the point, he is not good at marketing and he does not understand why games do well.
>>543550254good for you, fear is a downward spiral.
>>543548409>>543549483>>543550003Actually Zukowski predicts pretty well here how a game like this will do on the market. at 3:39>https://youtu.be/NMMXuc3onOQ&t=219The game however did not have THE MAGIC >>543549229as discussed in this video. >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WezMZrk32M4&

>>543549698Sex?
>>543550605I don't know why you think an Arksync-like with>Price: $17.99>Average playtime: 5.3h"disproves" anything. It's not a Zuk-approved genre. I'll change my worldview the day crafty buildy horse simulators stop selling.
>>543550781thats not me, im not a gamedev i just post here for dopamine
I look like this
>>543550854Do you think zukowski is paying some pajeet to shill his courses here in such a manner? Would make sense to shill it here if you think about it.
>>543550605>he is not good at marketing and he does not understand why games do wellHe's just a researcher. You guys seething about him and calling him a guru is funny. So jealous of marketing CHADS like CHADKOWSKI

>>543551387I vaguely remember you saying at the beginning of this year that you were going to release this year...
>>543551009>>543551202I don't mind the data he provides but I dislike his conclusions, he talks as if some genres are totally NGMI while others are evergreen and it's just not the case. Also being spammed by a schizo here all the time despite the fact his own crafty buildy game flopped does not help. Accept it or not indie gamedev is a lot more about timing and luck than genre, even a shartformer can make it big (hollow knight 2).
>this is the peak of game design according to lolidevs
>>543551163>Would make sense to shill it here if you think about it.These threads get read by maybe 200 people many of them the same who are here everyday like you, saying stupid things. Not a very valuable market.See there's a theme with you and it's that you don't understand marketing at all and it infuriates you. Hence your seething about the topic in general.
>>543551510>>everything is just like my eceleb youtubers>This is why you spend all day crying about ecelebs and youtubers here. You can't think of anything outside of this clout chasing context.Said the retard spamming some youtube slop
>>543551610aint no way anyone is sexualizing this
>>543551817>some youtube slopIt's indie game marketing stuff, relevant to indie game developers. You cry about literally everything and call everything slop. You're such a crybaby. You never do anything but cry about things. You cry so much.What a cry baby.
>>543551070
>>543551815>These threads get read by maybe 200 people many of them the same who are here everyday like you, saying stupid things. Not a very valuable market.Great. Then you can stop spamming your e-celeb's youtube slop, right?
All the gamedev grifters have been silent since this flopped
I just realized I only need to make a player avatar with some attack animations, a hurt animation, movement options, a roll, and then add levels and enemies.
>>543551565you remember wrong, im on track to have an internal demo to possibly wrangle publisher money with by the end of the year, but even an early access release is still probably about a year out :(
>>543552019Listen, I understand that he promised to pay you only if you get a specific amount of people to buy his courses, but I'm just not gonna do it, alright? I don't want them, alright?
>>543551603>a schizo here all the time despite the fact his own crafty buildy game flopped does not helpI think I post zukowski the most and I've never done a game like that. You're the schizo clearly.

pedophile hours
>>543551387nice physics
>>543551603Some of us here exaggerate what he says, but he's much more specific during his talks. There are no hard "NGMI" genres, but gamedev is already hard enough, and you're only making things harder on yourself when you choose a hard oversaturated genre. I don't think he gets everything right either. Before I ever even watched any of his talks, I came up with "average playtime theory" and we had lots of debates about $1=1hr and whatnot. After looking deeper into his genre theory, I tend to agree and have since merged those two theories together.Also, I'm pretty sure that music mixing game that people keep posting is made by a different guy with the exact same name.>https://x.com/ChrisZukoArt
>>543552483When are you busting out the "slop stare" picture, saar?
>>543552594Meds.
>>543552330I meant Zukowski, I don't hate him I just think he's trying to confirm his biases way too much. Also he's old and doesn't understand zoomers.
>>543552594That's not me. I'm here. Aren't you the one who made these images in the first place?
no more xister wars....lets get along.......
>>543552703Gavin's the one who thinks he understands zoomers, and clearly that's not the case. Millennials definitely still way outspend zoomers on Steam right now.
what are you progressing on currently
...
>>543552703>I meant ZukowskiHe made a game? See I wasn't even aware of that I just share the research. I don't need my eceleb game marketers to be successful gamedevs, I just want them to be experts in marketing. And considering Zukowski has been hired by numerous publishers to help them succeed on steam, his expertise is not in question. TLDR: Crybabies don't have information, Zukowski does. Crying about steam and megabonk is not interesting. Marketing stuff is interesting.
>Marketing stuff is interesting.

>>543553119Third page of my design doc.

>>543553976>design doc>progress
>>543554140no, im a 40 year old gooner
I don't need to know coding. The LORD God provides me with game ideas simply through prayer. I give my talents to Him as Paul says to the Romans.
>>543553843bocchisis...
>>543553727I agree. There's nothing more motivating than knowing that there is already an audience out there begging to play the game I'm making without me having to go through the humiliation ritual of begging people to play my game instead.
>>543554304anyone here looks like this? just asking
There he is. That's him. John Car.
I've completed so many cool features only to drop them later because they have no real purpose. It's happened like 3 times at least. I'm depressed.

I'm burnt out bros. I dont wanna work on my game anymore>>543558221Bokudev, how do you do it? how do you keep working on your game after such a long time? I'm not trying to be all "hurr you took too long" I'm sincerely asking for advice how you've stuck with your game for so long without getting burnt out and giving upplease bro
>>543557219Most people do cloth simulation in engine
>>543558075It is better to just download an engine and start trying to make things first. Once you are at least capable of making anything at all, you can start writing down ideas and making plans parallel to you actually making them in-engine.No point making a bunch of elaborate plans when you cannot even produce a damn stick.
>>543558550>Bokudev, how do you do it? how do you keep working on your game after such a long time?Side projects probably
>>543558075As stated, make a simple beginner game with the engine of your choice to get your feet wet. Then make a prototype or MVP(minimal viable product) of your actual starting project and if you do manage to "find the fun", make an actual game out of it. Otherwise keep looking. Mind that this project should still be something relatively small, something you can comfortably complete in under a year.
>>543558456Okay; NOW REALLY don't sue me. >>543558550Autism and speaking/connecting to the monad, removing unnecessary emotions that halt progress. If you don't connect to endless desire for creation and love it you are not going to make it.
>>543558671I can't do that cus my game is "side-project friendly" as in, anything I could turn into a side-project could be put into my game (I dont post much, but I'm the guy who's making the game that's a bunch of games in one)

Unreal Engine is utter trash. They made actual programming hell and the Blueprint insanity for the dum-dums is far lower IQ than C# in Unity although for some reason said dum-dums think Unity is beneath them.

Difficulty levels are functional, and all colors updates work now too. I think it looks pretty nice, especially for how little work it was.
>>543561881You really should be using blueprints and C++ in Unreal. There are some things that are just annoying to do in C++ but in most cases there's no reason to only use blueprints. My code is like 90% C++ 10% blueprints.

what's the best AI to help with coding?
>>543556751Previous.
>>543563417NTA, but it's not a language problem with Unreal. It is a convention problem. Unreal made a lot of really stupid decisions decades ago with things like naming and ordering and stuck with them ever since while the rest of the world diverged into better conventions. e.g., even though Godot is also a C++ engine, it's way closer to Unity in terms of naming convention and workflow.

>>543455459right is over designed slopit lacks the soul of the original attempting to completely change the vision of the authora complete and pointless waste of dev timemake your own game instead of building on the work of others (badly no less)but if you're going to work on an existing franchise (fanshittery, etc) show the bare minimum amount of respect for the existing medium or else the people who like the original are going to get the ick from your slop even if they cant explain whyfew people can do good fan works that arent porn to begin with and its a thankless endeavor purely done out of love for a thingso really try to do your own thing unless your autistic love for a thing compels you to learn through itdont say i didnt warn you though

>>543571449>the absolute state of this thread during amerimutt hours
suffering is when what you want to actually do, and what you want to achieve, don't align.e.g. when you want to achieve a finished game, but you only want to program then it's a bad match.e.g. "i like coding, but i hate doing art and i hate socializing" + "i want to finish a game" is a recipe for suffering.best example is people who like playing games and want to make a game because they have an idea in their mind. it basically means they have no interest in coding, no interest in art, no interest in gamedesign, but they like playing games. now they'll constantly have inner conflict, because their goal and what they actually want to DO is heavily misaligned.they'll now constantly tell you stories how they suffer and suffer and after 10 years of suffering they still have no game.you need to match your goals with what you actually want to DO.

Under ideal conditions, it seems to take the starting 10 villagers about 130 years to grow the village to 100, which seems reasonable.

>>543589164By the end of launch day for cuffbust all the streams were of people waiting for lobbies to start. I checked on it a couple days later and it was the same thing. Many reviews say servers aren't working which I think just means nobody is hosting games, it's fundamentally OVER and cannot be recovered.
>>543590296Does it not even have a feature to pair people up and automatically make one of them host if there's enough people waiting? He really dropped the ball.

Cuffbust is what would happen in anybody in /agdg/ made a serious attempt to create friendslop
Just make a good game.
>>543590835I'm not sure how it works all I know is I saw one or two actual playthroughs and everything else was people in the lobby which was more like them in a prison yard goofing around with stuff, and it just stayed like that. Constant 6/10 players waiting for host or something.

why are games so unoriginal? it's either a FPS, RTS, TBS, rogue-like or one of maybe 5 other genres.literally the only limit for a game is your imagination, and yet 99.9% of games are just clones with small features/tweaks to make them "unique".Is "idea guy" really a meme role after considering this?
>>543592008Post game
>>543592008>Is "idea guy" really a meme role after considering this?yes
>>543592008Original game mechanics are x10 harder to make and often aren't any fun. Demo day has a ton of "original" games that play like utter shit.

>>543592057i am nervous about posting my game here. i'm actually going to do a live play test on sunday but i don't think i want agdg crabs knowing about my game, much less joining the play test.
maybe gamers just have friendslop fatigue?

>>543592008>wish to be original>spend a year prototyping different ideas>finally get something>turns out some game from the 90s already did thisgamedevs drink from the same well. My game is pretty unique, but you could dismiss it by only describing the genres.

Does the Cuffbust dev post here? Is the one guy who instantly gets butthurt when people bring up it flopping?
>>543592008You eventually realize that making something that feels fun is hard, even more so if it's too unique and different. The genres are true and tried formulas.
>>543592923i will do this. if this post is evens i will post the link to join the demo, if it's odd then i will keep it away from agdg (for now).
>>543593170I don't think so but it would be hilarious if it was him actually getting butthurt

>>543593170Cuffbust is not an agdg game the dev doesn't post here that's why you need to stop talking about the game. You need to stop do you hear me.
i found out a youtuber i enjoyed watching used AI to write his scripts and now i don't want to watch his videos any morethis must be how gamers feel when a game uses AI arti mean i get why you'd use AI to generate art that you can't make on your own if you still want to make a gamebut using AI to write youtube shorts transcripts about game lore? that shouldn't be necessary

>>543593671I wasn't aware he personally felt offended when famous devs are criticized. Jonathan Blow is /agdg/'s regular punching bag and nobody cares.
>>543593387yes, it makes the content shallow. Suddenly you realize that the thing that is in front of your eyes wasn't made by a skillful artisan but by a prompter that is trying to gamble the system. He doesn't care about you and it is evident in his lack of involvement in the medium. Treats you like cattle. You want to know that the thing you enjoyed was made by real humans doing real labor and with certain ideas behind it, not some latest fad that literally any two-cents indian is using right now.
>>543593271actually i do make games, and part of it is because someone told me in this exact general that i would "never make it" and so i decided to make a successful game out of spite.

>>543600857*wait i take it back. i left the video running and 12 minutes in the dev is extremely retarded and i hope his game(if it ever comes out) fails

>>543601360My country has socialized medicine, meaning it's nearly impossible to find a doctor to get diagnosed and prescribed. It takes the kind of focus and dedication I do not have.
>>543601307That youtuber needs to just put the juicy stuff up front. But then he can't squeeze 25 minutes of "content" from it.
>>543601521Oh well in that case you have to obsessively study dopamine and how to regulate it naturally. And dopamine fasts probably. Cris or some cast poster used to talk about this stuff randomly a long time ago it was funny. But it's real.
huh?
>>543599818>Okay, I watched the first 15 minutes of this video, and I'm gathering that all this guy has done is be slightly abrasive on twitter and you decided to milk that for your dumb drama channel and it somehow actually worked, looking at the comments.This appears to be another strange and disturbing bottom feeder genre on youtube.
>>543599818that guy is literally just twitter's fygoon
wait what?
so right now my game has a score system, but i recently got the feeling that it's a pointless feature. It's only there for the nostalgia and maybe could be used for people who want to compete in the co-op mode. Overall- it feels like an unnecessary distraction, should i keep it or no?
>>543602368Convert it to a currency used for metaprogression.
>>543602368graphics are kinda kino but UI elements need unification in style at some pointif your game is planned to be short and encourages multiple playthroughs : keep itotherwise don't
>>543602305"I'm at the 9:00 mark, maybe in the next 20 minutes this game dev turns into a sociopath, but I'm gonna go ahead and call it - this YouTuber is a huge baby moron. You've wasted 9 minutes whining, and I don't even know what crimes you're accusing this man of. You think other indie devs would feel second hand embarrassment if they read his tweets, and he's taking too long to release his game? What an entitled brat. Ooo, he promised steam deck support and then didn't support it!? What spicy drama, bring out the pitch forks! You are a tool. You watched how people racked up millions of views dunking on pirate software, and tried speculating on a new cow, but you're just an ass.The reason we all were so keen to dunk on pirate software was because we had all been force fed his awful snarky YouTube shorts for months, so we were primed to jump on the bandwagon once we realized everyone else was annoyed by him too. Why would anyone ever care about some rando indie racing game dev? He isn't even cringey, he's just advertising. Even if he was, at best you'd just be brigading an autistic.I'm really starting to think we need to quarantine the EU to their own internet.">I'm really starting to think we need to quarantine the EU to their own internet.lmfao it's too true. Like the posters here who are just the worst, including gorespammer. They really are a type.

>>543600857>>543601307I watched the whole thing. I still agree more with your first post. This youtuber gives me second hand cringe. I'll take the most autistic nodev over another gossip youtuber fake laughing.
i might try making a game with zero planning, just open unity and do random shit until it feels good enoughthis should be fun
>>543602368make it a global score boardan easy way to do it is by using the steam api to store the data without using your own serversyou can also display this score board in game, with a filter to only compare against friendsanother classic is to make a 'daily challange' with a set seed that players can compete over score each dayYou may think score is a dead motivator, but some games will use it as the primary driver still, like Kill Knight and Devil Daggers. That said, you may want to include a meta progression alongside the score, or I see a lot of game do that.
>>543602906I was a bit harsh on the guy, mocking games for going for retro styles hit home...
I'm unsure what to do
>>543603256just do anything at allit will be better than doing nothing

I saw Jonathan Blow at a grocery store in Orlando yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
>>543604605wow. what an encounter. this does line up with how he acts on stream though so I believe it. wonder what he was doing in orlando
If you don't bake the goon will do it and you'll have to bear with it for 12 hours.
Someone made a thread, maybe it's fine.>>543604510>>543604510>>543604510
>>543605684One post early.

>>543605848Not a hard and fast rule, not written down anywhere either AFAIK, autistic anon.
>>543606120Explain why the ones with Alice get deleted immediately then when this "not hard and fast rule" is broken?
>>543606693Autist, what would that have to do with anything? Do you think I'm Fygoon or something?
>>543592008Dont listen to the pseudsIts not about how hard it is to design a completely fresh idea. That’s hard but not impossibleIt’s designing something that looks similar enough to what’s popular to garner attention while simultaneously actually being a completely fresh idea
