>>544369347Instead of accumulating a number of enemies by adding 1 every round, you could calculate it directly by writing a function that takes the round number as input and spits out the enemy count as a resultThat way you could do something like make it go up by 1 every 2 rounds by doing roundNumber / 2

>>544376721Post game.
>>544376318each cutscene node has a speed, position and a target, or it can have a "snap" instead of a speed so it just changes position instantly.So you could have node 1 be one side of a room and the target be a characters face, then the 2nd node set to snap and be on the other side of the room and another characters face to do a point of view change for a talking style cutscene.its kinda hard to explain but I know how it works lol and Im the only one who really needs to knowhere is a webm of example of the cutscene changing the cameras target to change from looking at the pigeonman to the chickenman

I imported my model into Godot, exported as a glb from blender, and the UVs are completely busted.The issue is definitely with the UV map, because when I export the model separately and apply the texture later it still maps in the exact same wrong way.Anyone familiar with this type of issue?

>>544389919with AI + asset stores + engines making it so easy to make games now, the main filter for making money is having an idea that people care abouteven advertising is easy, just make videos, upload them to social media, and pay for botted views/likesgenuinely, the hardest part is having an idea that people will look at and say "i want to play this game"i could be projecting, but i think the average dev is too autistic to understand why anybody would enjoy something they don't personally have interest in, making the process of coming up with appealing ideas even more difficult
>>544389919powerwashing simulator too.

>AI can't help you make gam-ACK
it's so weird to me how gamedev youtube is like this place where it's cool to suck and fail.like, imagine a dating coach be like "i never had sex and fail with women, but here is what i've learned to help you dating women"it's so fucking stupid.yeah i get the logic that "someone who tried and failed has some experience". but would you rather listen to a vid "i own a successful restaurant, here is my strategy" or "i failed with 10 restaurants, here is my strategy"?this whole "what not to do" teaching is just fucking stupid. like i could also say "if you wanna win at gamedev, then dont cut out your eyeballs and don't shoot a cop". like wtf that type of teaching is fucking useless.
>>544391205You should only listen to non-Nepo babies that either have multiple successful games or one after multiple failures; anything else is a waste. Also said successful games need to be from the past ~3 years, or it might as well be useless as well.
>>544391205they're humblegame dev makes you humble
>>544390357the title from the third one is good and the art is overall nice but the second title has more honestyhonesty is important, because if someone would buy #3 and clicks on the game, they might not buy it if the game doesn't look like #3the number of players who are willing to buy the game will always be greater on #2 than #3 (assuming #2 is more like the game)it's a shame because #3 is quite pretty
>>544391420To be honest, for me "success" isn't even the most important thing. The real big thing to me is, that those people don't even finish games. Or their games just suck.You can finish a game, with somewhat good game design, and still not be successful. But you finished something and made some good choices about game design. That is already success to me. But they can't even achieve that and they also cannot teach that.We don't even have a good strategy to even just finish games yet. And more important, finish in a good timeframe. It's a skill in itself to scope correctly, have focused game design and finishing in a good timeframe that doesn't take endless years.
>>544391076I love the human effort that went into making a website like this which allows you to instantly see the results as an animationof course everything else is garbage, but the human input is great
>>544389996thank you!>>544390061she's a he>>544390107these characters, the feleks, are primarily aliens, they are also just a bit furry because i wanted them to be more sympathetic
>>544391898>she's a heproof?
99%+ of indie solodevs have no idea about their limitations, what is realistic to achieve, what it costs (in dollars) to actually make what they have in mind, how long it takes, how it will ruin their health by overworking, if it'll even be fun or just torture to make the game they want.tldr: they are completely out of touch with reality and they don't seem to have any intend of re-aligning with reality.there's a reason why literally every indie dev is complaining about how hard it is.they don't want to think or listen, they just want to do it, and then when reality hits they cry and complain.
>>544384863>Quintet made a 3d hack'n'slash adventureHuh, I'm going to have to give it a look.
>>544392407truthit's a desperate attempt at feeling joy by creating artthat's itthey don't care about making games people want to play, they barely even care about making gamesthey're just depressed artists looking for an outlet to escape intoescapismthis reminds me of how much i love the escapism RPGs provide
>>544392407There are very few limits on the programming side if you use codex.
>>544361915Good! Key rebinding is a must.
>>544390848looking good.
>>544361915What is your objective with this game?
>>544392507they'd have a WAY better time just playing video games. i think gamedev is just an outlet where you can "feel like doing something productive". just like playing mmorpgs and feeling like you earn coins and it's "productive".what you really need to do is to just chill, have less fear, and just enjoy your time. and when you do gamedev do it realistically and don't have any hopes in it.when you have no realistic perspective left for your future, then delusions develop like crazy, because hope becomes like a drug and you'll have all sorts of unrealistic ideas just to feel hope again.the reality is that you can survive without hope. you can just accept life as it is. and then you can actually start to realistically approach stuff like gamedev.
Japanese niggas figured it out by making their RPGs power fantasy grindslop. It feels good to perform repetitive tasks and increase your power level. There's something appealing about this on a deeply instinctual level.
>>544392981But why doesn't it work irl? I will spend hours making my character learn some skill and feel good, but not irl.
>>544391205Gamedev is secondary for the producer and consumer of this content. Anyone who really believes watching >Top TEN tips you NEED to know before STARTING your own hobby (Almost died!!)is anything but procrastination is genuinely too stupid, apathetic, or weak willed to make a videogame.This truth doubles if you are getting this advice from bare minimum griftdevs like bite me games who go from starting their channel as absolute no knowledge beginners to putting out sage wisdom within one year after a few prototype games flopped on steam. This truth triples when you are watching multiple videos on what an amateur must know before they start, without starting.Gamedev YouTube has nothing to do with developing videogames.
>>544392981"slop" to me isn't when the dev is just giving me what i enjoy, it's when intellectual tryhards try to sell me their intellectual ideological version of what entertainment should be like. like woke crap.really weird that you call it slop.
>>544392981It's a shame because JRPGs have really big potential for being as deep and strategic as other types of RPGs but they don't care they just make it about leveling up and getting better gear and that's it.I know this isn't /v/ but can someone show me a JRPG that is actually deep and strategic and has intense strategic battles and isn't based around levels and equipment for the most part.
for me, it's tom francis
>>544392662i tried codex for a week and it seems worse then glm 4.6 for my niche engine, i had to use glm to fix whatever it made because it coudnt understand the API idk
i wish i could ban every video from my youtube feed that mentions money. i'm just so tired of it. it turns everything into a personal drama.i swear some day in the middle of a movie they'll add the producers talking about their financial struggle making the movie.i'm so tired about hearing about people's financial failures and troubles.it's probably the most annoying trope of the current age.
>see vid someone doing something every day for over a year now>it progressively gets worselol
I hate humans so much. I feel like despite never having it I don't even want love anymore because I know I'll only be hurt and betrayed again if I try, just like every other time.
>>544393102I believe the rewards IRL feel much less meaningful than the rewards you get from grinding in games. In a game, you'll spend a few hours performing a relatively easy task to increase your strength and go from fighting low level slimes to fighting dragons. In real life, you'll spend 10 years breaking your back at the Amazon warehouse to increase your salary by $15,000. It's not nearly as rewarding.>>544393230I call everything slop. I don't think slop is bad. I enjoy slop. I play mobile games. I play League of Legends. I don't perceive the term slop in a negative manner. The nature of slop, however, being low effort to produce, can be easily applied to most JRPG series. Take the previously built mechanics, make some new assets, come up with some bullshit story, and sell the game. I would consider that design approach slop-like. There's minimal cognitive effort involved in producing it.>>544393435Japs save their "deep and strategic" cognition for real work. Video games are for relaxing. They're allowed to be simple.

>make an upgrade tree tool>build a small tree>after experimenting want to change the gameplay systems a bit>the upgrade tree data I have is incompatible with the new data typeHow do you counter this? and don't say finalize gameplay before attempting to create upgrades, they're a core part of the gameplay.

my secret productivity technique is procrastinating until the sense of dread becomes unbearable and then unleashing the most manic work sessions known to mandoing two weeks of work in 3 daysfeels goodi cope by telling myself i'm using my procrastination periods to plan out my next work session but in reality i could be doing more on a daily basisit's okay, my work is always above standard
>>544396416try that with your posts so they become above average too
>>544396416in sweden you work 1 month a year and people love you so much for it that they throw millions at you. but the other 11 months they actually enjoy life and don't post depressing stuff online about how they can't find motivation to work for money.
>>544396416Your work is also always above being finished.
>>544396541Not everyone is lucky enough to be born in the extra 1st world, buddy. What I wouldn't have given to have been born in Scandinavia, you guys have the closest thing to a utopia.

IdeaCHADs how would you handle limb specific damage in "bump" combat?Targeting a limb prior to every attack is pretty slow, clunky and tedious. I thought the attack type and terrain could influence weights on which limbs are likely to be hit, example slashing attacks in a narrow corridor are more likely to hit arms and legs but in the open they have a better chance to decapitate or eviscerate.
>>544396739It was until you guys found it.
>>544396934wtf is bump combatjust use identified hitboxes
>>544396768I said I was going to bed, not sleeping, learn to read esl

>>544400226nice logo, fygoon predicted this btw
>>544400127I'll keep that in mind. I designed this rhyme to explain in due time.
I work hard. I put as much effort as I can into working on my game every single day, and I ensure my work quality is as high as possible. This leads to mental fatigue, which reduces my daily working hours. It makes me feel bad to not be working on my game more.
I'm the most successful gamedev in this thread.No, I will not post my game.
>2017 - can barely program or piece together a game but insane work ethic and game ideas>2025 - godot is so good, other tools are good, free assets are abundant, can program any features, but creatively depraved, slothful, content with figuring how mechanics work in your head then go on with lifeanyone else?
>>544400674you realized the success of your game is mostly out of your hands and depends in great part on randomness and whims of streamers.
>>544400902not true
>>544400674slothful yeah. I'm getting old... I'm supposed to do this for another 40 years? wtf?
>got called a good girl in my ball pit in my apartment what if we become good like in the bad guys movie
I have never been on a date. needless to say I'm an old virgin.
>>544400964Ok so without those kind of distractions you must have made an awesome game, right?
godot is for
none of you have the correct mental defects required to make anything
>>544401183free as in free beer
>>544401240fuck you
>>544400947depends at least somewhat on randomness and whims of streamers?
>>544401124I have been grinding at it for 4 years part time. I trust success will start flowing my way soon.
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
>>544401487betterit's not 100% luck, successful publishers can have at least an 80% profitability rate for titles they promotethe snkrx dev made nodebuster, digseum, and cornerpondif you know what you're doing you can reliably make itmost devs spend years making an art project, refuse to advertise it, and then quit after it flopsthat's not how you run a business
>>544397216Bro got a bit feisty after getting his dick wet for the first time
>>544401370I'm married and sometimes I wish I were still a virgin. The world as a whole is just a better place when you're still pure. Also sexual transmutation means that you're more productive and creative when you're pure. Virgins always make the best art and greatest mathematical and scientific discoveries.
>>544400387CHADgoon proved right yet again KEKYPOW
>>544401632my game is something that i would pour thousand of hours in therefore it will has a huge following
>sexual transmutationHahahahahaSome of you retards are actually serious about the entirely made-up virginity thing. Tell me, can you lose it to your hand? A hairbrush? What about if a guy wears a cocksleeve?I wish like hell that I'm just being trolled and that people aren't that goddamn stupid in reality

>>544390357the fuck is wrong with his arms only third looks good because of the fact thats it drawn, but the city looks perspectively wrong
>>544401240They'd just lock us away like Mongoldev. Bad Ending, you showed your therapist your game.
ai unironically makes programming more difficult since you can do more work per session and end up needing to mentally account for way more informationi used to spend 8+ hours solving a handful of bugsnow i can build entire systems in less than 30 minutes and then spend the 3 hours bug testing their edge casesthe latter involves so much more thinking, so much more information to account for, the fatigue is unimaginableit's like the information density is so much higher, the workflows with AI compared to workflows without it can be compared to sprinting uphill vs lightly jogging
>>544401997i already won life nigga, this is my retirement
godot is garbage

>>544402318>be brown>winning
>>544402318how?
>>544402229just have it make self contained pieces of code.like get it to write shaders. or something like a function that accepts an array of coordinate points and returns a heightmap image.

Good Morning /agdg/.

gamedev makes me want to work a brainless dead end job againimagine getting paid to place cans of soup on shelves and mop floorseven minimum wageyou're doing literally nothingand getting paid for itwhat the fuck man
>>544402603That's a good thing. Men are born good and women are born evil. But men who lust after women become corrupted and evil.
>>544402792If you keep yourself pure, you will be a special utensil for honorable use.
>>544402773Getting paid literally nothing to do literally nothing.Yeah, I'd rather do gamedev where I might make something good that people like and have a chance at making real money.
>>544403031>have a chance at making real money>>544401632
>>544395325The real devving starts when you cremate your balls
>>544403031minimum wage is not literally nothing thoughit can at least cover rent if you have a roommatemeanwhile the average game on steam, not even just indie games, but games made by larger studios, are absolute shit flops

>>544403327godot is fine, but most criticisms you see of it are justified because there is a lot of room for improvement
I'm making the game without graphics and then making renderer.basically the game is going to be 'revealed' by the renderer.what do you guys think?
>>5444016323.4 million new products are listed on Amazon each day.24 million in the weekAnd you’re not only competing with those new listings — but with the entire 600 million-product catalog already live on Amazon. :)Take all the “Amazon seller success stories” you’ve heard in the past 10 years and divide that by the number of sellers who’ve tried (again, millions of new listings a month), and there’s your historical likelihood of “making it.”Amazon fees, ad costs, returns, storage, FBA cuts, self-employment taxes, no benefits, no retirement…Even if you hit this “mediocrity lottery,” amazon basics is gonna be your competence.Imagine thinks that Amazon selling can provide a sustainable primary income in 2025.HahahahahaH O B B YOBBY
>>544403327It's mainly a meme. The engine isn't perfect, but nor are the competitors.

The search of the artsyle continue
>>544405528prompt?
>>544404960Fucking a worthless whore doesn't make you better than someone who doesn't
>>544404267Fundamentally, games are data, data manipulation, and data visualization.
my progress is simply too large
>>544405528So this is your new game gayzure?
>>544405851>sour graping sexcope more virgin
>>544402773I wish I could get a job like that. Gamedev is great but the chance of making any kind of living out of it is pretty small.
>>544406463>"i fucked a disgusting hambeast and you didn't, loser!">"i don't want to fuck a disgusting hambeast.">"sour grapes!!!"
>>544406628>some women are fat so sex is badlmao cope harder
Steamies must be expunged. They're the most retarded, most subhuman group ever. Hard to even call them people.
Going to spend this week reading this.Non gamedev books, but they're more related to marketing and psychology of why people buy things.
>>544407403Like I said yesterday, you're just looking for another way to procrastinate.
>>544399924>some 14 year old japanese girlI dont get americans obsession with the japanese. They barely contribute to the world outside their little island. If it wasnt for anime they would be more irrelevant than the most obscure nations except for their history as axis eith the nazis.
>>544407491I think is important to read books.It's a good hobby besides gamedev.
>>544407491yup
>>544407403Based yesdev, I've been studying and practicing some esoteric arts such as hypnosis & a few pioneering neuroscience theories for nine months now.Making a videogame has nothing to do with art, sound, or code. It's actually about controlling the brain of another human being, remotely. I believe that, by mapping the synapses of a human brain, we can derive the true essence of a fun game.All of this, without a single line of code, heh. I guess you could say I'm a bit more than an amateur.
>>544407542You're too young to remember this, but Japan was on track to becoming the global predominant superpower in the 70-80s. That's why the entire "cyberpunk" aesthetic is heavily Japanese: because all the sci-fi authors of that era assumed Japan would run the world in 2077. The exact same anti-China propaganda you're pounded with on a daily basis today was targeted at Japan in the 70-80s. The only difference is that today China has its own army, while Japan didn't and was entirely beholden to US demands. Japan was forced to sign away that future. Bing "Plaza Accords" and "Japan's lost generation" for more.
>>544408391well, game design and marketing are just applied psychology.also things like SOVL and appeal in art are also, psychology.
>>544408719Why not just study math?
>>544408848because math is useful for coding, not to learn things like how to make a viral tweet or getting a gamer to buy your game.
>>544408939It is. Everything can be derived from math and logic.
>buys and refunds the game due to a technical problem, when there's a demo he can try for free to test the game on his pcWhy are Steam users so retarded?
2 minutes is an acceptable load time. I deem it thus. I only want one load at the start and none later and I'm not easily able to split up this dense little world
>>544408848there should be a huge trench in between psychologists and biologists.
>>544409032that was debunked by scientists in the 17 century.there's a reason why science is not longer inductive reasoning 100%.
>>544409079like 10% of my refunds are people buying it despite not knowing english even though the steam page says its english only and theres probably a warningyou can try and strategize, plan, reason with gamedev, but this is the audience, none of that matters
>>544409079>yOu mUsT dOwnlOAD tWo dIFFereNt pRograMs bEcaUSe I CAn'T CodEWhy are gamedevs so retarded?
>tfw when you have ascended being an amateur a while back, but got nowhere else to go, because the other gamedev forums are somehow even more retarded.
>>544409079I bought your game so I could leave a negative review and refund it.
>>544409294>different
>>544409032WRONGEverything can be derived from PVRE GNOSIS
AI told me my 2D driving game is overscoped for a solo dev. Should I listen to it or should I tell it it's just crabbing me?
>>544409206I'll need to see a mathematical proof of that.
>>544407542Without anime they would still have Godzilla and sukeban
>>544408719You're literally wasting your time studying psychology. Gamedev is time consuming, you can't putter in subjective nonsense you need hard results, that's why I study the brain directly.You're literally thinking you should study the motion of a vehicle while you could be studying the engine. You quite simply cannot understand psychology without understanding the brain, so save yourself the time and go to the source. At a molecular level it's simple enough, I've been mapping the brain for some time now and I'm getting closer to areas that handle stimulation etc.Or, you could skip fundamentals and jump into developing an "engine" and make a triangle spin kek. It's time to dev like a big boy, son, I recommend you start with Why We Sleep, Incognito etc basic accessible concepts before you can enter peer reviewed materials.
>>544409430Ask it where its game is.
>>544409430It is unironically kwabbing you
>>544409361Except you didn't. You're a bastard bitch.
>>544409430You're absolutely right!
>>544409448It's well known that humans can't create 100% novel ideas, but simply a remix of existing ideas.>>544409546I'm not a materialist.
>>544409337I share that feel. however you are always amateur in a bunch of gamedev disciplines outside your main. If you are solo you are forever amateur
>>544408391>Based yesdevhahahahahahah fucking newfag
>>544409831What a noble sentiment. I should cherish the ability to learn more.
>>544409846he rite tho
Sony, Honda, Yamaha, Toyota, Nissan, Mitsubishi. Wait I'm seeing a trend, the Japs are really good at making super reliable products. Say what you want about their pedophile tendencies and stupid anime but the Japs are okay in my book. Great at manufacturing. As for their vidya and media in general, not my cup of tea.
>>544409682You believe ideas only come from what exists, but you're not a materialist?Typical psych 101 faggot. You dont even know WHERE you stand because you don't UNDER stand your brain.Neuroscience is used by major AAA studios DAILY and big players have been known to retain their services. Psychology is a derivative, I can tell you don't know shit because you're busy being trapped in the noise instead of cutting to the heart of things. Sad, really.
>>544409580Pick any 10 random new releases
>>544409546This level of procrastination is insane, its like writing your own OS for an enginetranny except xim still being closer to making a game than you
>>544410248read on diferent scales of measurements.You don't need to go to fundamental plank distances to learn about human scale issues.It's irrelevant to understanding the mind, things like the physical matter.
I spent 10 hours fixing a bug caused by me accidentally passing in the wrong variable
indulging the mentally insane is evil and a waste of time
>>544410180If the Japanese are so great, why have they been stagnating for 30 years?
>>544410653Summers are too hot
Nice I did some major improvements (controller support, better tutorial, difficulty balancing) and spread the word lightly about my game and now it's got a lot more people coming back every day on its own. Just making a free project trying to get players at allhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HulO5oR4SaU
>>544410653>stagnatingThey try to keep the comfy era longer
>>544410653Stagnation in regards to what? I said they were great manufacturers not innovators.
my game is going to change the entire gaming landscape.

>>544411057amogus, sus
>>544411526>You can stop using that gif.thanks
>>544410482Irrelevant? From a psych faggot who thinks it will help with MARKETING of all things? Tell me you know NOTHING about gamedev, retard.Games don't stimulate your personality gayboy, they target the brain. It's ridiculous to reduce a videogame to inputs on a computer resulting in stimulation, like market fags think, when in reality it should be reduced to chemical reactions taking place on a microscopic scale.>Hurr durr, plank lengthI bet you think this is intelligent showing off your grand science knowledge. The brain works in concert with the surrounding universe, grand astrological movements are just as important to gamedev as brain chemistry and don't think I ever forget it. After I've finished my full brain map I won't be releasing so much as a teaser prior to Jupiter's retrograde. I understand there are hobbyists here but you have to be joking if you think psychology is a legitimate vector of study for commercial success.

>>544409639I'm bald
>>544412028Backpedal then faggot, I'm sure you were just "trolling" thinking psychology is worth a dime in gamedev when the human brain is literally ground zero for any designer, period. I have better things to do than educate you, I've only begun the hippocampus minor.
>>544411870that's jut the result of japanese population stagnating.Japan can't grow more when they have maxed their population.

>>544411468he did heaps of marketingnext fest, two game showcases that i dont remember of, one of which was reacted to by Asmongold, to which Asmongold upon seeing the game said "Okay yeah! Yeah. Looks cool". what more can you dothe game is just not
>>544412121Make a good game or be forced to humiliate yourself on reddit
>>544412902>the market changes over timeWhat a crazy discovery!
>>544410604Been there.
>>544413575Why are you posting the old images then?
>>544412926RichTextLabel is very expensive to reprocess. You can try turning on threading.
>>544413778I don't make my own. I only repost ones that other anons have made. Twin stick shooters are as much of a red genre 3 years ago as they are today.

>>544414325it's ego trippingu want that moment where they find out oh ur ripped damn and that rare moments are what makes it
>>544414135So you're passing on false information with some of the green genres and consider it doing a favor to anons? bruh. And yeah, the green genres change between images. which means some of the "approved genres" you post are wrong.
>>544414209That wouldn't have helped in the case of the wrong var happening to also be of the same type yeah?
>>544414325>spend years getting jacked>take off your shirt>attract a bunch of other men (gamedevs)>repulse the vast majority of women (gamers)Manlets = red genres

>>544413923I create the label and add a bunch of text to it once. But the size of the panel containing it was always based on the size of the text before getting fit_contented (even with it set to true from the start), until I did a reset_size() in process on the panel. Just once was enough.
its simple, you wanna win? do the opposite of what the tutorial or eceleb says, else you are just another rat in the rat racethis post will trigger the schizo btw but i have to give you some genuine advice, always think outside the box in highly competitive markets
Waste of life. Waste of time. Waste of emotional energy. And for what? FOR WHAT?I hate gamedev. It is the energy vampire of my existence and it controls me the way mental illness controls a schizo.

I have decided to stop kidding myself.I will NOT make a successful game.I will NOT make a living from gamedev.It's time to grow up and do a warehouse job like a real man.
Trying to understand how to get twitter to notice my progress, is like learning to make a BBC NTR thread on 4chan to get 500 replies.
>>544417504open godotyou could become the next barone
I may I found the esthetic.
i wonder. do people really care about the games they play or is it just the achievement they want? like e.g. in a gacha game, do they really enjoy the gameplay and the story or do they just want the better gear and the rare characters?if that would be actually true, then for a game to be addictive, all it needs to do is give a context for a sense of achievement and nothing more.i guess that's why competitive games work so well. do people really care about kicking a ball? no. but do they care about the sense of achievement? yes they do.they'll do basically any activity, as long as it is able to create a sense of achievement. and if you mix that with loot boxes and gacha you got a money magnet.(yes i just watched a fifa video)
>>544417546>cris was the bbc posterkill yourself
>>544417638I released my game on the steam store. It made only 300 dollars in its lifetime. I can't do it anymore.
How do you do marketting for a video game?Mine is having difficulties to get two wishlist every day...
>>544417504I figure most of us here are simply hobbyists that fiddle with a thing in our off hours.>>544391716>It's a skill in itself to scope correctlyIsn't that why you ideally do a polished vertical slice of your supposed game idea? That way, you could more easily gauge from there how long it'd take to do the rest of it from there after implementing some of the systems necessary for the core gameplay, along with a subset of assets made.
>>544417725>object does not align with the hex grid size or shapeNice "esthetic."
>>544417787I guess there are all kinds of players. When I was a kid I could get lost in a game world. These days I can barely get a couple of hours into any game before I lose interest.
>>544417504i'm currently trying to fix this bipolar mindset. like "either wageslave or selfmade dev". what i try to do is not having any fear about a normal job anymore. like just accepting "there's some shit i have to do and i'll do the bare minimum to support my stoic lifestyle". and then i try to not think about money at all anymore for everything else. like money doesn't exist and has no value or any meaning in my life.it's very hard to do because my brain is rotten with the money virus, but i try to heal.do both. do what you are forced to do by the circumstances and on top of that do what you really want to do. and if you don't feel like deving anymore, then you can at least know for sure you only did it for money and not because you really care. which is also fine because your well being is important, not the product you make.
overhauled steam pagesee you guys in makin it city
>>544417935>I figure most of us here are simply hobbyists that fiddle with a thing in our off hours.out of necessity. I firmly believe that anyone with a passing interest in gamedev who could afford to gamedev full time would gladly do it.

Guys you know I just gotta say it...I seriously LOVE this Hobby!
i wonder if it's a nice constraint to do a ui only game. like, no access to realtime-rendering. everything event-based. like pressing a button to "progress by 1 hour".my problem with this is though, that literally all ui technology except html/css/js sucks. but i don't want to write a game in javascript.

>>544417787As much as I hate gatcha games, I like them because they tend to devolve to minmax hell, and for whatever fucking reason, my brain really likes making a unity as powerful as it'll allow me. Regular games tend to not have layered growth systems because they're not live service garbage that has to add a perpetual grind of micro-economies to keep player retention/add harder content.
>>544419048Just listen to a bunch of Trent Reznor's industrial albums and copy it.Maybe throw in some Akira Yamaoka as well.There is no tutorial for this kind of thing.
>>544419407As an indie game developer, you don't have the means to show people something they don't already want. That's a privilege reserved for those with multimilliondollar marketing budgets.
>>544417787it's 100% the achievement that drives motivation, mechanical gameplay gets subconsciously automated very quicklywhat people desire is the fulfillment of a desire that's implanted in their imaginationtell the player what to do and they'll want to do it if it's not excessively difficultwhat makes a game fun is the anticipation of accomplishing the goal, not the actual interactivitythis is my biggest struggle as a developer, thinking of a scenario, of a goal, that has high appeal and will convert to sales if implemented and advertised correctlyall i can think of is power fantasy "become the strongest" slop, but idk how well that sells with the indie gaming audienceit seems the people who enjoy the concept of intrinsic self improvement are already occupied with pvp gamesi'll at least make a couple games around this concept to see how it goes, but if this goal context fails, i might resort to making casual money fantasy games where you get rich with minimal effort, or social validation games where a community of npcs supports you and treats you nice because you helped them or something, idk yetahh man this shit not easy
>>544419480>Here's your data.those are just links. you can't explain what quality and fidelity are, you don't put any numbers on effort or production value. your assessment is womanly, your thinking feeble, your arms probably noodle weak.
>>544418151cool AI capsule
>>544420039Relax, nodev. You would know exactly what fidelity means if you made video games.
just think of a situation you would enjoy experiencing in real lifeand then turn it into a video gameyou are now a master game designer
>>544420287womanly brain, womanly logic. do some pull-ups and pull up some hard data.
>>544419851>That's a privilege reserved for those with multimilliondollar marketing budgets.they cant do it either because it functionally impossible to run it as a test caseyou might think "oh i'll make a visual prototype and see what kinda response it gets on xiter" but no natter what response that gets its not actually a testcase of the game you think it will be, it is instead its own art product whose results apply to itself.

>>544420039>>544420370are you fygoon
>>544420413With enough money, you can gaslight them into liking whatever shit you want them to like.
it's kinda weird. you need to have a game where improving is some sort of mystery, like "i don't know what type of weapon i will find". but at the same time they have to know the weapon exist or they don't even know they can actually progress. or you communicate that with levels. like "oh ok the max lvl is 70, my sword is level 40, so there has to be a level 50-60-70 weapon too"and once players know there is upgrades, they feel a sense of achievement for getting the upgrade.
>>544420039i understood what he meant
>>544420606there are multiple billion dollar media franchises pushing out flop after flop because they thought they knew how to do that
fygoon is weird because he has no friendshe needs to go outside and make friendsthen he'll stop being weird
>>544420784ok explain then: what is quality and how do you measure it? what is effort and how do you measure it? what is fidelity and how do you measure it?if you just "understand" intuitively, that's womanly thinking and therefore useless in a man's hobby.
>>544421040you should naturally be able to understand these thingsthis hobby might not be for youmaybe go play with legos

i personally don't believe laziness exists in stuff like hobbies or work. maybe in a sense that if other carry you, you get lazy because you don't have to do it. and you don't do it because someone else already does it for you and you just start to depend on them.but for solodevs it doesn't really exist i think.i think the real problem is lack of faith. it's hard to do something when you always have a voice in you telling you "it's not gonna be worth it", "you not gonna finish this", "even if you finish it wont make money".and if it feels like a gamble. would you work hard for a full month just for a lottery ticket that could give you 0 dollars in profits? no you wouldn't.there is only 1 other mindset that makes you able to get out of laziness and that is "wasting time". you have to be able to waste time. you have to be completely comfortable with your time being wasted. it's non-productive thinking. it's a mindset where it doesn't matter what the outcome is. but that is extremely hard to do. it's just not how we are wired.i also noticed that especially when you are depressed it's hard to waste time. actually i once figured out that wasting time cures depression, cause it strikes right into the "everything has to have meaning" fallacy.

CS student here that wants to make games targeting PC. I'm looking at FNA and MonoGame because I heard Terraria and Celeste were made on either or both. Which should I go with?

>>544426948that guy is proof. money money money. it's all about money. think 24/7 about what sells. think what makes money. it has to make the most money possible. money money money.my brain is all about money money money. money is the core of the universe. everything is money. everything can be measured in money.how much to have sex with your mom? can be measured in money.how much to sell your organs? can be measured in money. it's the universal mana that everything is measured in. you can turn money into whatever you want. if you have money you can have everything. money is everything.want some guy to lick your asshole? there is a price in money for that.want someone to build you a house out of spaghetti? there is a pricetag for that.all you need is money. money money money.there is nothing worth gaining except for money.$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$better you listen to all his advice to get that money. there is no other reason to do anything other than for money, so you better minmax to get the max money.
i gotta finish my game before valve goes full retard and makes steam submission free or some stupid shit like they usually get up to!
>>544427989Woah there little chuddy. TBRUSH has released multiple games and earned mucho moneys. Sometimes it's best if you just listen to the professionals mkay?
>>544425932raylib is kinda shitty if you want to make a serious engineit's better for small demos; raylib wasn't designed with good architecture in mind, so for anything complex you will have rewrite interfaces and shit
>>544427773do you think his stomach cramps and diarrhea increased after Cuffbust flopped?
>>544428140I know you're just spamming text but >think 24/7 about what sellsIt wouldn't matter if every game was free, you're still competing for people's attention which is why you should make a game that stands out and coincidentally this is the same thing as marketing and seeking money. It's not surprising that this point flew over your head since you don't actually care about videogames and want to complain about society and money instead.
>>544428181Wild how much more money games were able to make back then. I remember him bragging about the insane sales on Switch during the pandemic.
>>544428181its the year 2000+25 and this guy STILL talks about how pewdiepie streamed his game ONE TIME on a regular basis.no different than lolcow Pirate Software constantly bringing up the fact that he worked at Blizzard Entertainment

>>544428272That's a great question chudski, actually he used this as an opportunity to give a crash course explanation for basic marketing standards, things which Cuffbust failed to adhere tohttps://youtu.be/ZjtUE-wUvVg&t=1028

>"MONEY DOESN'T MATTER!"said the rich faggot who can ruin a million people's lives with a single phonecall
>>544428998>now xe is pretending like cuffbust was always doomedThat's incorrect, cuffbust flopped largely due to the release price being incongruent with the value and not following through on what the game appeared to be, all of which is covered by TBRUSH. You should pay attention!

Sometimes I think this thread has gone totally cuckoo, but by the grace of God a good Christian will always prevail. Together we pray.
oh noo cuffbust didn't make money. this is bad. money is very important, actually money is everything. if it doesn't make money it is bad. it shouldn't exist. only things that make money should exist. also people who don't make money shouldn't exist. actually only what is valuable in money is worth existing. money money money. hail the money my fellow money obsessed money game developers. praise the money. bow down and better make some game worth money or stop existing.

As long as you have enough money to not have to worry about having food on the table and having a roof above you and walls around you for the foreseeable future, as well as extra wiggle room to buy what you want to buy, and you're not getting that money from actively screwing over other people, then you're living the ideal life. You can pursue an activity that is more meaningful to you than something you pursued purely so you can make money to not have to worry about living.
>>544429221No! Sorry you're upset!
where my tommies at? hope you boys studied for tonight's course on the psychology of marketing - professor brush is no slouch guess thats why we call him professor BRUHsh hahahahaaa nah man im just playing you know we all get along on campus and thomas always makes an approachable learning environment.see you in class ,bros, don't forget to send your deposit and reserve your seat !?
>>544419135>i hate slay the spire but love overwatch>this can't be normal?That is normal and you have bad taste.Among intelligent people, you aren't normal bc you have bad taste. That's why you're confused; You're a retarded normie among smart people.
anyone making a game here?
>>544429605because xey hate xemselves and externalize it through shitposting. many such cases
>>544429698anyone making money here?
>>544429462nice talk on money my fellow money game developer. money is very important.>>544429490this is a very important question. sales are very important cause they make money. money is the most important thing in life.>>544429636yes. money is everything. money is extremely important. my fellow money game developer. hail the money.
>>544429646That's okay, I will just wait for Fygoon to start posting since he upsets you. :)
>>544429658haha ahh you so crazy bro aight BETsee you there!
>>544429464Have you ever seen architecture of a proper game engine? I can spend hours talking about it, but I'm tired. Monogame's design makes a ton more sense than raylib's either way
>>544429698me idk why id post it here though
>>544429827then why are you here
>>544429203The original statement was>I dont get americans obsession with the japanese.and the answer to that is "propaganda". The US could easily stop Japan's economic growth in the 80s because it is a colony. Japan may look kind of small, but it still has more population and land area that, say, Germany.
>>544423093Wrong. Disney didnt kill Star Wars. George Lucas killed Star Wars. People like to rewrite history but my boy Russell will set you all straight.https://youtu.be/vL06r4lZH50
CHADgoon, incinerate this entire thread
you should rename this general to the "loser poopy dev general"
>>544429753Not yet, but I've heard from some alumni that once that course material finally *clicks* making a best selling indie game comes easy. Fingers crossed this is gonna pay off, I had to remortgage the house and take some time off to get the full course load in. I know it's risky, but I trust thar good Christian, successful independent videogame developer and YouTube superstar Thomas Brush will deliver in the end. Amen!
>>544429753this is a very important question. money game development general should be mainly about money and making money. i don't care about making video games, i mainly care about the profit and the money. money should always be the first reason of doing anything in life.
>>544429865i like to post it during the 5% of the day this thread doesnt have one of its revolving door lineup of schizophrenic constructs shitting it upcurrently 3 of them are here shitting it upi hate people with mental "illness" aka incorrectness
>>544429490none of those children are his.
start with money
even if my game is successful i will still be black and under 6'...
>>544429005>>"MONEY DOESN'T MATTER!">said the rich faggot who can ruin a million people's lives with a single phonecallSaid Jesus Christ, a dirty poor working class man who revealed himself as your Lord and Savior. Repent, Heathen! One cannot serve both God and Money.
>>544429658>professor brush is no slouch guess thats why we call him professor BRUHsh hahahahaaa nah man im just playing

>>544430156Kill yourself
>>544430156Preach sista. So TRVE.
>>544429942Imma be real with you chief, not gonna watch a video essay of some faggot talking about starwars
>>544423093Disney finished killing Star Wars that Lucas started with Jar Jar Binks.Then Disney resurrected Star Wars with Andor and made it great again.
gay parasocial fanboy nodevs are why yesdevs leave for 'cord, just being honest here no one wants to be around cringe homo fanboysfygoon predicted this but we didnt listen
AMATEUR GAME DEVELOPERS NEED TO KNOWThe Complete Indie Gamedev Zero to Hero package by Thomas Brush is SELLING OUT!There are only twenty one seats left for this weekends TurboTime Fast-Track To Indie lightning course, now 20% off!This course provides everything you need to go from being a complete beginner to making your very own videogame. That's right, a real videogame that you can play, just like those classic gaming moments when you were a kid!Act fast, amateur developers, these spots don't stay open long. I guess you could say they're rushin' for a Brushin'!
>>544418151can you delve a bit on the publisher?are you getting a wage or lump sum for developing the game to completion?are they taking a cut on release in perpetuity or after a certain point?are they providing any services like localization and promotion?
>Make a game that becomes popular.>Wait until it's at peak popularity.>Remove it from the store.Flappy Bird dev was unbelievably based.
>>544429871>Japan may look kind of small, but it still has more population and land area that, say, Germanynta but Germany is also a colony of the USA. We saw this when Biden blew up Nordstream, crippling Germany, and they just thanked him for it.
everything becomes clearer once you realize that money is your only goal and that gamedev doesn't matter.it's just your individual way of trying to turn your skills into money.
Ay yo he actually fuming about professor T that's chop ha Gamedev ain't for everybody tho fr
>>544430153
How long should the demo be if your game is already short and inexpensive
>>544430267It is a sin to kill yourself. I will never. Instead I will live to bring glory to God and one of the many ways I will do this is by making and releasing my game.
>>544430723im not black im actually slavix i just wanted to make sure it was you eric schizo
hell yeah motherfucker
>>544430035>>544430237>>544430310uh ohhhhh
>>544430278Jesus denounced the Pharisees and the Romans just like people today denounce Israel and the USA. He was against evil.
>>544430652Stop shitting in the pond asshole
I'm doing it for RVME
let's get back on topic folks:videogame development with thomas brush
>>544430963yet his followers arent, curious!!!
>>544430291>not gonna watch a video essay of some faggot talking about starwarsI dont expect someone who isnt a fan of star wars to care about star wars. But for those who do it is there and it is a unique perspective you dont get anywhere else since everyone else just does ragebait about how Disney killed Star Wars and wokeness is the only villain to blame. They just want clicks not the truth and history.
>>544430424>I guess you could say they're rushin' for a Brushin'!Yo that's FIRE
someone make a thread on /v/ so i can post progress
you don't want to learn how to make video games, you want to learn how to make money. stop lying.
save us, FYGOON
Money isn't everything unless you don't have it.
>>544429798I work on a proprietary game engine that I would say is pretty proper.Have you looked at what raylib is? It's not a game engine at all. It has no architecture. You decide what the architecture is.
>>544431297I already know how to make video games. I want to learn how to make more money using the skills I already have, which includes making video games.
This ought to fix the thread.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLLLZR_vz38
>>544431145His followers are. But most people who call themselves Christian are the most anti-christ satanic evil heretics possible.I tell you the truth, many atheists are closer to the Kingdom of God than most Christians.

>>544431152>it is a unique perspective you dont get anywhere else since everyone else just does ragebait about how Disney killed Star Wars and wokeness is the only villain to blameOK so it's going to be pic related shitting on the prequels. I'm genuinely not interested in that perspective since the reason I'm not a Star Wars fan is because everything Disney has produced has been warmed up dogshit.

>>544431673If you're a real Christian then you should believe Israel should not exist. God doesnt like genocide especially the mass systemic eradication of little toddlers.I thought of making a game where you kill Israelis and the boss is Netanyahu. Like Wolfenstein but 2025.
I don't know what's worse: turning out the the tranime spammer is unironically a gay or turning out that the tranime spammer is unironically a woman
>>544432323Thanks, other anon
>>544432175hire an ui artist to fix the ui and you could be the next balatro
>>544430745If it's an action style game and it's short, at the least put in an unlockable difficulty mode that changes up the enemies/abilities/etc just to incentivize running through it again.

Is there some shorthand trick for making sure my UI is readable from a couch distance's away if I were to make an eventual console version (let a man dream)? Most I can think of is just temporarily making my game render at a shit resolution (720x480), and see if it's still legible there, give or take some blurring due to the shit resolution vs. the assets I'm using.
>>544385176it's kinda worthless unless you're an expert artist who can also code because you need to wrangle the engine to not be like every other rpgmaker game if you want to succeed with it

>>544434224That's more of a Protestant and Baptist thing.
>>544389263>>544389439there's no proof
yesterday I only had time to do some small css text effect fuckery to make my dialogue text cooler, today I will make a bit of actual progress on the game
>>544361915i like the animations
>>544434912wtf is this real?
>>544394016The very reason to make games stems from the desire to give other people the experiences of playing those games knowing how much fun they can be. To be a gamedev is to be an entertainer. An entertainer's goal is to bring people joy. You can't make games if you hate people.
>>544435764it's real...
Since my last progress post 4 days ago i implemented collisions so the slimes occupy actual space, solved a nasty bug with the viewport stretching at random, made the crystal float up and down, added projectiles, tried to put a large tower instead of that stont platform but it looked horrendous.I'm slow as fuck, and the zero previous experience with libgdx isn't helping
>>544435897>You can't make games if you hate people.Then explain what income I've been living on the past two years.
>>544435897That's a naive and vapid statement which completely disregards all the other reasons people make game such as self-fulfillment, curiosity, greed, etc because they don't align with your "noble" reddit view.
>>544396739>What I wouldn't have given to have been born in Scandinavia, you guys have the closest thing to a utopia.It is sort of winning the lottery but these countries peaked in late last century or maybe up til around 2010. After that things have gotten worse, way worse. Of course things have been getting worse globally so living here is still better than the rest of the world but Sweden has it especially bad with all the mud people they imported. Their direction is literally a failed state if they don't start taking some drastic actions to course correct and if they do they will get huge global backlash because they will be committing "crimes" in order to protect their nation.
>>544436872you still didn't answer that "you work one month a year and people throw millions at you". wtf does that mean where in sweden does anyone do that?
>>544436872>It is sort of winning the lottery but these countries peaked in late last century or maybe up til around 2010.late last century is right. they started getting shittier when balkanoids started refugeeing in.

>>544433973>goreposter first in line to cry about /v/3 and namedrop fygoonThis schizo needs to doxx himself again he's so boring now. It's actually hilarious nobody bothered to save his gay webcam self portraits he posted during his meltie and nobody cares to remember his name which he also posted. So insignificant. Literally a nobody.
>>544437037That wasn't me. I have no idea what that means. I can answer that I have been officially a NEET since 2017. >>544437251It depends a bit on which country. Finland started significantly degrading after 2015 summer was dubbed "summer of rape" though the corrupt politicians had laid the groundwork for it way before that.
>>544436489>vampire survivors but no movementwhats even left in this game anymore
>>544438178can't you just find them in the archive if you care that much
>>544436489I'm also making a The Tower clone...
Daily reminder that crabs want to make you quit gamedev because is not a hobby, but then you see whoever claims they can't live off indiedev and is always a californian liberal that needs his avocado toast and 500 usd subcribtion to blacked.com.
>>544438669Dont make it slime themed plzAt what point are you? Any bottleneck i should be aware of?
>>544438562choosing 1 of 3
>>544438859Yes, took a long time figuring out enemy health and damage scaling from that game
>he was born in one of these countries before 2003>he is a neet that gets paid by his gubirmint to do nothing all day>despite all this he still hasn't released a game and become a millionaireRetard
>>544439212I don't think there is a single gamedeveloper on 4chan from EU.
vibe coded this shit
>>544439462
>>544438950I knew it. I tried "taking inspiration" from the game formula, slent 2 days on it, but every polynomial approximation fails after a number of waves.I half assed something that works more or less until wave ~5000 and said "i'll come back to this later" and it will bite me in the ass
>>544438694wtf are you doing lmao
>>544439632>this type of girl is not extinctI'm killing myself
>>544439212>taxes and cost of living eats up a majority of the revenue
>>544439632It's true. All euros here do is shitpost and cry about indie games and seethe about politics and ecelebs.
>>544439635I ended up with a 4th degree polynomial that is pretty close.
I have finally scoped my game small enoughIt only took a decade to gain the wisdom to do so
>>544439809>NOOOO YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND I NEED TO LIVE IN TOTAL OPULENCE AND SPEND ALL MY MONEY ON EXPENSIVE SEX TOYS I CAN'T JUST MAKE ENOUGH TO HAVE A ROOF AND FOOD I NEED TO INDULGE IN RICHFAGGOTRY LIKE MY DEITY FATFUCK GABENCUNT!!!

>>544440058stop fantasizing about europe you're just like weebs fantasizing about japan
>>544440058>good goyim, you will NEVER make a living from your games. However, we will collect your taxes and give it to refugees
>>544439212You're not wrong. I am a project hopping failure though I have released one game and it was a flop.
I'm horny
>>544440035For hp i got a 3 terms, grade 16 polynomial lol. But i think i'll rewrite it from zero with a less exponential scaling (like, 1 million ho reached at t10 or sonething like that).If you want to replicate it perfectly, i believe the dev is using variable percentage increments. Think of it like:Hp *=1.01If wave % 2 = 0 Hp *=1.1If wave % 10 = 0 Hp *= 1.5EtcBut be aware there's like one hundred of these conditions. I know this by searching their discord
>>544440578don't be mean to urself marmo

>>544440964>a girl
>>544440964why are you a girl?
>>544440812I see. Well to be clear the worst posters here have always been from the UK. Jealous bitter ragetards who have no business even posting in these threads.
>>544441242>>544441269it has a penis
>>544439462Im from italy
very tall red haired woman with prominent front teeth and prominent clavicle will work on my game with me. I love her.
new thread?
>>544441440worst posters are pedos, furfags and troonsdon't matter where they're from
>>544441557you bake

>>544441795>>544441795>>544441795
>>544441579It does matter actually. You represent the lopsided amount of shitters who mill around these threads when you're not even a gamedev. UK is a blight.
>>544416629>what can we learn from this?don't make bad games, and also don't be a tranny
>>544441873>You representI'm not from the UK nor am I a nodevthe true blight is those 3 groups of people and they have much overlap
>>544434448did the publisher contact you intially or how did that come about?
>>544442028I haven't seen any pedoposting.Posting an animal doesn't make someone a furry, so I haven't seen any furries.And calling animeposters troons is a stretch, but there are definitely no troons posting here.All shitposter cope from euros like gorespammer.
>>544434448wtf is a vig
>>544442510>just because I say so it doesn't happenkill yourself
>>544434448How much would you say the publisher increased your earnings?
>>544438178I have his pic saved but I know I'll catch a ban if I post it because it's considered doxxing
>>544432692I'm gonna be real with you, you can spend as much as you want in marketing, but if anyone sees that UI they will NOT go for it.
>>544432175The covers there look really cool? Are those handmade?Agreeing with the other anon saying the more standard UI elements could use an artist pass to be more stylish though. Or plug them into an AI and tell it to make them stylish and see what you get.
>>544436489That's neat, I like the pixely look to things.What's the gameplay, some kind of central tower defense?
