If you're so great it should be easy for you to get out of the bucket
Post progress or suffer -20 motiv debuff
>if only you knew how scary things really are
>>544688310The bucket is bloody and I need help out saar
fancy meeting you here (in the bucket) haha
im at the bottom of the bucket
I could have made a video player app, a small video game, and other stuff back in 2000s, but yeah. Nobody paid for thaf.
>>544688495>>544688558imma keep it a buck, im not a big fan of these e-celebs you post my indian friendwhy not post cool e-celeb gamedevs like Andrew Tate?
Is it really that bad to use assets? I want to make a small 3D game, but don't have time to render every trashcan and lamp post.
>>544688850Get off the internet and develop some agency.
Starting to think JRPGs are better if you remove the combat.
>>544688850Literally every prototype project I start is just getting some shit off Sketchfab
>>544688976Open world visual novel?
>>544688782>listening to a muslim who was human trafficking and all of his advice is just common sense???
>>544688976That's called a visual novel.
>>544688953>develop some agencyYes, sir.
>>544689085>human trafficking is LE BADok
>>544689127yes, but you can have stuff like walking in towns, buy things, do puzzles, unlock hidden levels, walk around dungeons.Besides the VN elements.
Alchemickal Review:;_; why can't I have a giantess big tiddy mommy gf wife irl? She's beautiful bro's! Finally got around to playing this game despite desiring to try it months ago, maybe last year? You need a better way of handling the alchemy mixing system, most gamers will imho quit rather than trying to get the hang of it. It is very difficult to handle on the fly even with the added benefit of slowed time, though I did somewhat get the hang of it after a few deaths. Big orb robot is such a damage sponge kek, also those barrels have screwed me over more than once -_-. I enjoyed it and could see myself buying this with enough content but it needs a better system to handle alchemy, which is my only major complaint. Minor complaint, allow use of the escape key to exit menu's. BOOBA SMASH *character dies*
>>544688558oh you're a bottom alright.
>mfw experiencing /agdg/ demosI have been playing demos i found from /agdg/ creators for around a week now and i have been having so much fun! They're all so great!Please Anons, is there a list of /agdg/ demos i can play? I want to give as much support as i can! I love it all so much!
>>544689265the muslim part is the irredeemable part, fag.would you rather fuck a girl that looks like hulk hogan or a man that looks like megan fox? hm? yeah, I thought so. checkmate
>>544689679anon how did you turn the conversation into you fucking a tranny so fast
>>544689834Mohammad made me do it
Progress: Made a custom floor & vertex painter for designing dungeon rooms (addons were broken so it was harder than you may think). Also gave it undo/redo support, which is nice.

Can't wait to see more v3CHADS in the next expo. So cool that the last expo got stickied in /v/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8Od_6KnaVMhttps://thev3expo.com/games
>>544690138Missed a row in the stitched screenshot
>>544688558>looks at artiktf
>>544688016Supercell made $100 million with Squad Busters and shut down the game because they didn't see enough potential in it.
can i apply without submitting trailer until later? still got stuff to work on
Lets talk about Carmack and hoe he’s not dabbling in video games industry anymore. We all should take example from him and instead of gamedev we’re supposed to create tools and software that helps humanity
>>544684656I TOLD YOU HE POSTS HERE
>>544690039Thanks Anon!
It feels kinda icky that jblow is furiously masturbating to the lolis posted here
>>544690552>I give up>I'm going to say it's actually so I can do something meaningful unlike videogames>You should give up with me and talk about doing something meaningfulNo thanks I'm going to actually make games and actually do the meaningful stuff.
>>544690742Wait what?
>>544690792>games>meaningful
>>544690552>helps humanitylike seeing how well AI can play video games, and VR?
>>544690552>to create tools and software that helps humanityHow exactly carmack helps humanity?
>>544690928by not making video games, everything is better than gamedev
>>544688016progress, adding expansion
>>544690881Learn to read IDIOT
>>544690415Kek. I however hate that company so much. Biggest crybabies in the industry. They look ready to steal from others ideas (a few in game things are obviously heavily inspired by other media) and even mock others but they get ridiculed ie the youtuber that called them out, and watch as the DMCA claims rain down.
More and better video games - that is what people want
You won't stop me. You won't even slow me down.
>>544689679Islam is based and so is Tate, you're just jealous because of their oil.
Make magic, make technology that looks like magic, make something never done before, make something cool, memorable, distinct

im gonna make pong
>>544691219I'm curious, what game is yours?
>>544691971Antisemitism, antifeminism, antilgbt, etc
>>544690002impressive, very nice>addons were broken so it was harderbe an enginedev anon, you will be happier there
>>544688416Is that AI?
my game isn't fun... ;_;
>>544690002Are you making some kind of 3D level editor? Very neat if so! Smiley face made me chuckle.
>>544690002cuffbust coded
The concept of crabs is other peers holding you back or trying to discourage you. But the thing about crabs here is they aren't your peers. They aren't gamedevs and they aren't making games. The one or two psychopaths here who spend their whole life here trying to discourage gamedevs aren't game developers. Even if they tried to make a game once, they were never a gamedev at heart, so they failed. People who succeed don't become crabs after all. They gave up gamedev and will never get back on the horse. They aren't actually crabs. We need a new word for them.
Do you make games because you crave validation or is it something else? Obviously if you're in it for the money then you're a moron
>>544691158Ha, I'm guessing the final interface won't be a big red button on the wall? At least it looks like it works! Though something fell down in the back corner?How are you doing it, does that space always exist but it's blocked off by a wall until the player meets a certain criteria? Not sure what the best way to dynamically add space to a 3D environment would be, but I'd assume that's the kind of thing there must be precedent for. It'd be nice if you didn't have to spend the resources rendering it while it wasn't being used.It's great to see you making progress with this!
>>544693272I have a story to tell. My game will be free, it's a passion project. This is my hobby, my dream, it's never been about the money.
>>544693429kill yourself furry nigger
>>544692201Maybe we should start gamedev threads on wizardchan?
>>544693696nobody would post
>>544693486
>>544693429based
>>544692502The truth is I already have a multiplayer engine and server on web where you can chat and the only interactive object is a chair. Now I just figured how to skin it.
>>544692201I actually have an enginedev game prototype as well as an app I'm working on, but I'm trying to finish what I started, ya know? Though at that point I will have a great base to then make the next game, so maybe I'll be pressured to just reuse godot since it's what I know and has my legacy code.>>544692552Well the game is 3D, but the layout will be mostly 2D. It's for a top down shooter, so at best there will be pits/water and walls. Though I have considered what it would be like to make the game more 3D. Anyways, each room is designed on its own and then the levels stitch them together, kind of like Spelunky, after a fashion.>>544692760nani? I don't follow recent releases
>>544681684fucking ew
feed him
>>544693936What? Why is it ew? There's nothing ew about it fug off it's perfect
>>544693848Also it is very insecure, easily hackable, and written in pure C. This will be fun.

>>544691158
>>544693272>Do you make art because you crave validation and attention are you a little child who needs attention is that why you make art huhCreators create things. Simple as. If you leave us alone with nothing we will draw in the sand.
>>544693997is there an option to give him pumpkin? if it aint canabalism it aint nothin
>>544694043literally look at it fly over the desk in last 2 seconds lmaolooks like Poopspedition 33
>>544694232This. However the money and validation is also nice. There's no point in deliberately avoiding money and validation, when I have the skills to get it.
>>544693429This but I could use some extra money so I'm gonna sell it for like 5 bucks
>>544688495
Something must have happened that I'm unaware of because with no prompting from me, my free crime sandbox game Pixurbia just got 50 new players in the last hour while I was grocery shopping. Neat!

>>544695251Procrastination is a vital part of amateur game development.
>>544693272I am someone who has an interest in creativity in all forms, not just gaming, and i love it and am into it because i want to share my creativity to make people around the world happy.Now that being said, i say you're too hard on those who get into game development to make money as even though i myself would never make a game for the money it's fair for others to want to make money as everyone needs to get a job and make money to live in this world, especially in this economy and games are what makes the most money nowadays until monetization becomes illegal.So i will not judge or look down on those who are in it just to make money even though i wouldn't do the same. >>544693429That's beautiful Anon.
>>544693932That's interesting! By top down shooter are you thinking dual joystick / WASD+arrow keys? Have you worked out an algorithm for the levels to stitch themselves together yet? That's the kind of thing I'd be really interested in so if you figure it out it'd be great to hear how you did it!>>544693997I look forward to being incredibly upset when this suddenly makes millions of dollars.

>>544692502I have people with security clearances that will verify that I started work on this game while I was supposed to be working in Iraq. It is technically stolen DoD property.

>>544695870Aye it's a twin stick, here's a webm of the gameplay right now. Sadly the proc gen is taking a backseat, sometime after DD I'll work on it to add hallways, rotating of rooms, proper entrance/exit and etc.

Anyone in the thread using Godot for 3D? I'm struggling with navigating the viewport. I have a model separate from my character model I want to zoom in on to adjust the collision shape to match the model size. But I can't get the viewport camera close to the other model. There seems to be no way to pan and zoom into a location. Does that make sense, and can anyone help me out?
>>544696914You are a little too old for ERP marmo...
this good or what for a 2d game? how much of that is bot traffic?
>>54469771275%
>>544697545Hey fellow Godot bro. Try selecting your model from the list of nodes on the left, then move your mouse over the central viewport and hit F on your keyboard. It should zoom right to it
>>544697545>no way to pan and zoom into a location.You can zoom with scrollbar, hold shift and middle click to pan.Also, you can double click on the icon of a 3D node on the Scene side panel to focus onto it.
>>544697712Don't focus on every small number you'll burn yourself out.Just spray and pray.
>>544696895Oh I'm impressed! You seem to have a lot done already. Interesting to see the fire and stun effects, it feels like there's a lot more going on with the combat than just the basic stuff. Great work anon!
>>544697712At the end of the day someone is controlling those bots, and traffic is traffic once you start paying a toll.
>>544697790sheesh thats garbo then, should i buy the premium shit? i dont want to give even a cent to muskrat but if it can give me more wishlists ill take it
>>544697545Shift-MMB to pan.Alt-F -> WASD+QE for freelook
>>544696182Always glad to see you going on.
>>544698050just make a good game, it will market itself
>>544697851That worked somehow. You're a genius anon!>>544697924Thanks for the tips here too, really appreciate them! I was just using my mouse wheel for zoom and holding right-click to pan but it seems like what you said works better. Appreciate it!
>>544698182that sounds like dogshit eceleb advice like cuffbust guy
>>544698105Thank you too!
>>544698317bitbitbitcoincoincoin is some scam being ran by some furry that trump kicked out of the NSA.
>>544698361cuffbust wasn't a good game and no amount of marketing saved it though
>>544698000Thanks, but it's really rough considering how long I've been working on this game. The other gamemode is more baked, a shop management sim. The game is like Recettear, if you've heard of it.

Why wouldnt you incorporate into your game?
>>544698607Oh, I know Recettear! That's great to hear, because that's a really unexplored game space. It's great to see someone inspired by something unique like that. Definitely interesting in seeing how your game turns out!

Does anyone else have luddite fatigue? They are all stuck mentally on GPT 3 and DALLE, while people are making almost whole games with AI and getting paid. Pic very much related.
>>544699609Take it as a sign from God that AI is not the way to go.
>just make your character's health a const bro
>>544699609Do you have an example walkthrough / tutorial to show how to make an entire game using AI?
>>544696765I wanted to warn about a scam going on the v3expo discord some moderator is pming users and offering to give away 1 year of claude code and comet browser to make gamedev easier. They then give you invite link to comet browser which gets them 3 dollars and then they tell you to login with your gmail account, they tell you to login on mobile first to sync your mobile data like gmail, contacts, etc to it. Then this google account will be connected across multiple devices and they will steal your your data.I tried telling the owner of the discord but he blocked my private messages.

>>544700629Interesting critique, can we see (You)r game so we know you are making handcrafted masterpieces? I'll be waiting.
>>544699609>map clicking slopanyone who plays this shit should be euthanized, AI generated or not
>>544700629Those videos of "grok vs gpt make minecraft" make it look like an interactive tutorial with huge gaps that you still need to figure out yourself>>544700662This looks like a mockup but I bet a sophisticated enough could do this in real time soon. The thing is you are really going to be "playing the ai" Eventually the player is going to internalize the profile of the AIs training and it will start to feel samey
>>544700534Nope, not at all. You can just tell Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, or other similar tools to implement mechanics directly for you, create branches, push commits, etc. Too many idiots here who think they know what they are talking about when they shitpost instead of keeping up with the tech.

after getting frustrated and hitting weekly limit they approved my refund on claude :)
Reminder gorespammer used AI chatbots to spam the thread and make it unusable for a day then admitted he has intimate relationships with his chatbot gfs and is an AI cultist. AI is actually the only thing remotely technical he has any interest or experience with. He has what is known as AI psychosis alongside many other ailments.

>/agdg/ is just a chatbox for /v/ok i'll be leaving now
>4chan randomly stops working multiple times a day now for 1-2 minutesCan't get much worse than this.
AI = copyright infringement + Math.random()enjoy it until it lasts because nothing lasts forever
>>544701782Looked it up. So much seethe in the youtube comments but if it was never once mentioned that it used AI, then those would probably be playing it and having fun. Assuming they're not just that crowd that runs around complaining but doesn't actually play anything but triple A>inb4 they purposefully ignore the AI generated frames for higher frame rates.
>>544701984There is already a daily general in /v/. Has been like this for over a year. Generals in /v/ are supposed to be against the rules but since nobody except agdg is paying attention to those threads nobody cares.
>>544694546That's your game? I thought it was just some anon randomly bringing up a random game. How hard was it coding in multiplayer?>>544701992So it wasn't my ISP being shitty and slowing my internet down at random? Huh.
>>544702110>if it was never once mentioned that it used AI, then those would probably be playing it and having funIt looks bad. You're so enamored with AI you can't even look objectively at that footage.
>>544692502Here’s something I whipped up today. Not sure if I’m going to use it yet or not.
>>544700626Dude, i'm unemployed, it was just a question, why so paranoid?
>>544702394Looks on par with 99% of games posted here.
>>544702480What is an unemployed tripfag nodev posting here for? Why haven't you killed yourself yet?
>>544702421That looks nice! The flashing star sprite is well done. The galaxy sprite looks good, but it feels stiff since it doesn't rotate or anything.The font fits very well! What font is that?The dithering / blue dot effect feels weird in the first part since it's only on the upper half of the screen, but it makes more sense in the second part. Speaking of the parts though, for the first part I though it was a serious game but judging from the titlescreen it's a meme game?
>>544702615sisters........ hes right
Hopefully I can get this boss ready by DD
>>544701326>>544702615Massive cope.
>>544702480Prove it, post your setup so I can see if it fits an unemployed human
>>544702394It unironically looks like this other game tho. I don't remember the name but it was a coop horror game in a snow environment. It reminds me of it.
>>544702684He's here to turn (you) to Christ. I'm not even bullshitting you.
>>544702820what vs are you using? git?
>>544702707Thank you. It’s all hard coded in C, hence the “stiffness” of the animation. As far as a meme game, it has a character. Mario is plumber who eats mushrooms, is that a meme game? This is about a cactus who does bath salts.
>>544702421the space scene looks really good why cant i draw well? this style in the cutscene would go really well with one of my ideas

>>544703159I used NASA photographs under the public domain and messed around with them in GIMP and Aseprite until I got the look I wanted and then scripted it all manually typed out engine events.
>>544688016Can't help but feel bad cause like if enough crabs leave the bucket then there's no other crabs to climb on top of to get out you know unless they've got a plan to tip the bucket over when they're out with some teamwork but I don't know if I can trust like that. I'd be stuck in the bucket forever. And if I get out I might have survival's guilt forever
>>544699609anti fygoon schizo wont like this one

>>544704856Gorespammer made the thread unusable for a full day with his chatbots lol. Just be grateful he's not double timing and spamming. That could still be a person posting though.
all i asked for is feedback on my mod and i get ignored while you post ecelebs so this is what you get
I love knowing that he will never be able to even pretend to be a gamedev with AI because he spent years trashing agdg and trying to discourage devs instead of learning what it takes to be a gamedev. So when AI can actually make meaningful gameplay he will just be left in the dust seething. Again.
I can't trust any one of you now not to be AI bots and I will never post again and will only post on the discord where user names and accountability discernably improve the tone see you tomorrow
i was an innocent dev once who asked for nothing but feedback, you made me become the enemy of life itself you radicalized me

>>544703378See the people who will make high quality games with AI are people who have been making games. Gamedevs will make high quality games with AI.Shitposting schizo neverdevs are not going to be magically making quality games that people care about with AI. Creativity is not granted button pushing. Talent is not granted by a computer. Winners win.WINNERS.Win.
You win Ive been posting here since 2018 and I have no finished game, I used to think I was better than you but Im a failure
>>544706497The difference between you and someone like me is that when I think I'm better than other people I'm actually right and I deliver hard results

For people actually making progress, what's your workflow like?I'm still just doing tutorials, but I've been trying to work on things for an hour or so, then take a break for a bit, then repeat. I've heard that supposed to be more productive.

>>544702421>>544692502I lied though, the Commander Cactus stuff took me months, years ago, before AI even existed. Here is what I got done today.
>>544707162i look like this
>>544708119step 1:make a quick list of tasks in notepad or somethingstep 2: pick one and do itstep 3: go back to step 2 just work nigga
>>544703481hmm neat idea but won't that limit you when expanding the games size? will this be a game anyways and are you looking to put it in dd65?
>>544708119>bot malfunctioned and reposted it again
>>544706072She cute, has that nice sweet wife look to her.>>544706497Less time than you but still no finished game since I first showed up here. It's like there's some sort of wall blocking me from achieving this.

>>544708646Unity 7 will fix this.
>>544708275It’s a web game, I’m putting on my website.
>>544708646its a problem with your code, the way Awake() and Start() functions are calledmaybe your npcs need something else initialized on their Start() which isnt ready so their movement gets fucked upthats my guess
If I track which time of the day the player is playing my game, how can I utilize this information? I'm assuming the big mobile games are already doing this? I remember reading something like by tracking when the player is playing the game, you can figure out the gender of the player, if they are student or not etc. I think Unity is already tracking this. I don't know if it shows on the dashboard for the developer. But how can I put this information to use this directly? Or are there any other metrics I can track to monetize my game better? One thing I can think of is sending notifications if the player is not playing the game at the hour they should be playing to remind them to play.
>>544704435idk why but she seems to not really give big ego vibes like many of the other female devs on social media. how did she even pay those people to make a game for her anyways?
>>544709012thanks, I'll investigate this possibility
>>544708646The error already existed but it started to show itself later.>>544708646What this anon says happened to me too. Everything was working fine but some time layer I started to get null reference exceptions. I found out it was just by luck awake and start methods from the scripts were called in such an order that things were fine.
>>544709256take into account that those functions also get scrambled up in builds, so if you dont have a proper initialization process, you'll have these kind of errors in builds randomly
>>544703089Fixed

>>544715270>2 more weeks
It took 2 years but I finally understand 2D tilemaps and tilesizes and isometric projection. FINALLY. Also now I can make scripted scenes outside of running the game in multiplayer. Is anyone here plotting my downfall? please let me know. I am very superstitious.
>>544714923I used to follow his game back when i used twitter, maybe 5 years ago. it looks so different now. unrecognizable
>>544715513Thanks for making me laugh, I have some pretty exciting things lined up for next week that I think you will like quite a lot.But right now I'm heads down on the bug investigations, which is looking like I will be able to conclude tomorrow around noon and then I will spend the afternoon writing things up and then I hope to share it in the evening.
>>544715513The gentle swaying to the plants is a nice touch. Even though it's a little thing, movement like that makes the world feel alive instead of dead. Did you animate that yourself? I feel screwed without an artists because I don't think I can do things like that but it's really needed for indie games to have a decent presentation.Also why is everyone named Bob?
Despite how little experience I have in 3D, I think I'd do better as a 3D dev or even just a top down 2D dev. 2D side scrollers was a terrible choice I made, just so many issues compared to the other options.
>>544715910Here you go
>>544715910Thanks! I didn't animate it at all actually. Its the power of shaders. I found the shader online on some website and tweaked the parameter values until I got this. I also don't have any artistic skills. All the environment tiles, etc are a mashup of free ones I found online. You can go really far with basic image manipulation skills and some understanding of shaders. You don't even need to write the shaders, just know how to find good free ones online and where to apply them. For some assets I just tweak the modulation values or add outlines in GIMP or Godot, and it goes a long way in enhancing it. Try messing around with stuff like that, it can be fun and you'll surprise yourself with what you can do.

>>544716835>know how to find good free ones onlineI don't suppose you'd be willing to share your secrets with the class anon?
>>544716246I thought so too. 2d art is my strength, but 3d just gives me freedom
>>544704435>nice rack ruined by a twerking owlwomen are just awful
>>544712868You guys are just replying to him using chatbots all day during EU hours.
>>544717146 https://godotshaders.com/?s=windI found the code for the wind effect here.If the shader has parameters you can view them in the godot inspector window and just tweak the params till you get a nice effect. I don't even know what all the parms do sometimes. You can fuck around with it. Most of these effects usually come down to applying some sort of distortion + random noise over some periodic interval. so think in terms of waves, amplitudes, frequencies, sin and cos. I think the more important skill is knowing where to apply the shader. Because in godot you have all sorts of options. You can apply it at the raw asset level, or implement it as some layer-wide effect for all assets on a layer, etc there's tons of possibilities. Have fun with it.
I perfectly copied the seasons mechanic from Pokemon.Nights are longer during winter, afternoons are longest during summer, etc...I'm manually transitioning the time here to demonstrate but it changes based on the user's system clock, and it works flawlessly. It updates in real time.If you play at night, the game is nighttime, and so on.Now I can add snow during winter, falling leaves during autumn, etc...
>>544717672Had no idea that site even existed, you're awesome anon!Of course now this is a whole nother thing to consider when making a game and oh god it just never ends why is nothing ever easy
>>544717865That is a super cool and highly specific detail anon!
Please
>>544718835It's important for the story because one of the characters Ludo can teleport anything in sight which includes the sun so during a specific fight it'll be close to sunset and Bring Me the Horizon will play and the sun will go lower as the fight drags on which means the sun is closer and larger and his ability is based on visual acuity so it'll strengthen his powers over time it'll be kino just wait!!!
Mr Hanson makes an appearance in my game.
>>544717865nice. love this sort of thing. next up, local weather conditions...

>>544720442thanks <3Mr Hanson says thankyou too.
>>544721015Weight painting, animating, inserting keyframes, etc... takes time and effort. I see the soul in that dog, it's a damn fine animation.
Having trouble with my blender to Godot workflow, I have to export as glb then save an inherited scene and overwrite the old one every time I want to update anything. I know I can use blender files directly but then it won't apply modifiers or keep animations.Do you guys have a better workflow for this?
>>544721274Try the Blender to Unreal workflow, it just works. Epic recently revamped the entire pipeline like 5 months ago actually
>>544721274>Do you guys have a better workflow for this?Export less often and only when you think it's done and by done I meant really done
>>544721015any suggestions on what I should change?>>544721236thanks mate xx
All of my ideas are narrative games so I think I just want to write instead of dev :(
>>544721384I suppose I'll just do that then. Thank you.>>544721383Unreal is stinky
>>544721542front and back legs are out of sync
>>544721563What are your ideas anon? Renpy is super simple if you just wanted to make a VN
>>544721274I think you should export the blender files/models with a transform of 1,1,1 for the scale and apply all your modifiers before you export.If in blender you have scaled something larger or smaller, press CTRL+A with the model parent selected and choose "All Transforms" to sorta reset the the model to be scaled at 1,1,1 but keeping all its transforms.
>>544721824Na they're not VN sort of stories, but just small straightforward stuff like A Short Hike or To The Moon. Places you want to live in for a brief time while experiencing the story in this small world.

Chicken vibin
>>544722291stop ai'ing hard working devs shit and make something nigga
>>544721858Nono, nothing is wrong with the exportThe problem is that anytime I change something like make the model different or change animation, I have to export, import, create new scene from the import, apply my in-engine shaders, re-place the object in the right location in my scene and apply the script again.I'd like to be able to just update my mesh or animation with a button click or something.

>>544706719Very simple, grind for 4-12 hours a day. Become utterly consumed with finishing your project to the point that you would rather work on your game than do anything else. Aggressively focus on the goal of a minimum viabile product. Continually re-examine your project and identify uneeded bloat that can be cut out. Become self aware of your shortcomings and realize what you must do to overcome your limitations. You need only the will.I think this is a rather simple workflow to follow.

being sheltered is very bad for your brain
Certain nodevs who will never make a game use AI as a way to convince themself they will be a gamedev some day so it's okay for them to spend all their time in the gamedev thread. That day never comes. Next thing you know they have spent 3 years here shitposting about troons.

Good afternoon sirs.Today I'm working on Halloween update for my game.I love to be a mobile game developer!
>>544746274Enough.
>>544746015anyone who works at a salaried job makes a lot more money for a lot less work. but I can't get a job so I cope with making it with gamedev.

>>544745605>>544746015Man I wish. I do gamedev as a hobby because it's fun, I get to make decisions about the product, there are interesting problems, there are no retarded middle managers to deal with. I wouldn't say its 'hard' in the same way that webdev is hard.Webdev is hard because of bad decisions made by other people, some of them stretching back decades, and of course trying to save money by outsourcing work to pajeets only to have them give you something that is not fit for purpose. Like a giant rube goldberg machine piece of shit that runs entirely on AWS lambda functions and a billion other random services, queues and buckets instead of just a web service that you can put on a server somewhere and change when you want to.>Anon we need to display the user's birthday in the UI. Ok no problem, I'll just change 10 different files across 4 different 'microservices' that don't work without each other so they're not really microservices, several different terraform configurations, perform a database migration, and ship a new prisma lambda layer.You think you hate Pajeets? You can't possibly fucking comprehend the incandescent vitriol and contempt I have for the entire Indian race.Anyway gamedev is easy.

>>544748413I dunno, try it.Or how about price your game at $300k, buy it, reduce the price to $10, let the algorithm kick in, then refund
>>544748494How do I make a game that will get money from donations?

Relax.
>>544748584>drip feed
>>544748586>mention trannies>the Tranny Defense League is in the thread within seconds to call you "obsessed"Weird how they're apparently always online.
>>544748413It's trivial for Steam to figure this out. They just look at conversion rates for your game and check the accounts that bought it and if the data doesn't fit normal ranges they conclude it's fake and disregard for algorithm purposes. For the same reasons it's not worth it to have botted reviews or even reviews by friends. Steam knows what's the average review rate for a game, how often any Steam user leaves reviews and how much they played any game.

>>544753043Fuck, if only there was a way to get starving TikTokers to play my game…
I am not a teen, I don't desperately wish I was a teen again, nor do I want to fuck teens. Why would I use tiktok?
>>544753043>attention>speedThat has always been the case, but I'm not interested in helping my competition. Whether people like it or not: there are game design rules. And not, they're not being taught in the industry at large, because industry is shit. For example, one such rule is: a player has to be able to see their character/themselves on the screen at all times. No even semi popular game breaks such a rule. But there are golden rules like this surrounding every aspect of the design, that industry at large has abandoned in favor of making money. Which is why modern day AAA largely suck massive donkey balls.
>>544753510The same reason why Larry Ellison buys it. That's where eyes are and attention goes. This one's about to hurt - you're old and out of the loop.>no you're wro-Billions upon billions of dollars. I'm right.

>>544760502Keep on trucking fren, you don’t want any of what is happening in Ukraine.
>>544759745I'll allow it. It's also early to say that the game isn't gonna have missable events.

>>544764134Freedom of speech, he could say fuck he wants as long as he puts a few key words in it, takes the suitcase full of cash, and keeps his mouth shut.
>>544764351Too soon?
>>544737726Thank you anon, I appreciate it.Fully hobbyist but it took a lot of time. I think the stages are>zero knowledge>beginner>intermediate>semi-proUse free tutorials to go from zero knowledge to beginner. Then use your own practice and exploration to go from beginner to intermediate. The last jump from intermediate to semi-pro can be achieved with good paid courses (which are not easy to find, to be honest)My advice: NEVER pay for beginner level courses. The free beginner level stuff that's out there is really good. Only pay once you're really good and want to see how the real pros do things
>>544742714Your combination of 3D and 2D assets is cute and distinct.
>>544752517The ground shaking there is a great effect, along with the debris. You really captured a sense of size and scale well there! One of the most impressive 3D things I've seen posted.
>>544753043How about a game that just played TikTok videos? Free with ads and it's just an app that plays a TikTok playlist. That way the kind of people who watch TikTok videos all day can use even less brain power since they don't even need to click on videos or decide what to watch.Very Fahrenheit 451 since that's basically how the dystopian dictatorship in that story controlled the populace.
