I honestly need to like make a list of genres of board games and card games and videogames and digital sports and research the easiest engine for that genre and subgenre.

>gpt5 codex is downgraded tooi swear to God every 2 weeks every single LLM downgrades their modelthis should fucking illegal
>>544840323Yep I regret not jumping on the Vampire Survivor cloning era. I unironically had a chance seeing what the early clones were like. Despite being a 2D dev I might actually be decent at 3D. I suck at drawing but 3D art just looks so much easier to design. But multiplayer? I think I'm screwed.
>>544839681I'll lock in after taking a little nap sis
>>544840504No nappies sis it's friday get to work!!

>>544842018Also, tell the AI to vibe in a robust debug message system that can help you keep track of the game state, and vibe learn how to use a debugger.
>>544842184>>544842018100% serious here. If my game crashes, it spits out the exact game state with pointers, which can be fed directly back in to the AI, which knows exactly where the bug is faster than I could find it.

>>544844026You need a youtuber to tell you that open world survival games are popular? Sheesh
>>544842973Is Farming actually a good genre or is it secretly just a cozy relationship simulator genre that uses farms as the base for the game because farms allow progress to be made within about a minute of gameplay at the start of every morning and then players can go explore for the rest of the day?
>>544844148Yes I do.
Are the spooks posting in the /agdg/ with you right now?

I heard that if you put the phrase Blue Eisenhower November in your game, the CIA has to buy 5000 copies of it.
so now thar we can vibe code making a mmo as my first time is actually smart right?
>>544845143>so now thar we can vibe code making a mmo as my first time is actually smart right?
>>544844776You’re crazy, those funds come the DIAs budget.
>>544845214why you repeat my post without adding anything
>>544844705No I know gamedev but I don't have my finger on the pulse of the market. I'm glad there are people like Zuk who dedicate their time to this kind of stuff. I am usually out of touch with what's happening in indie games. I hear about things here as well that I otherwise would have no clue about. But that's kind of rare.
>>544845326The CIA decides which games are going to make it and which ones don’t.
>>544844163I played farming simulator for a while and loved it.

It’s just a coincidence Gabe Newell worked for Microsoft during the development of several major DoD contracts at the time.
Luddite xisters, do not look at the latest gemini news, gamedev is finished...
I don’t know guys, I don’t think my game can compete with black budget government psyops, I’m probably going to quit.
>>544846137but Gemini was the shittiest AI model?
>>544846220AI is useless unless you speak the language it is outputting, whether it is Chinese, English, or C++.
>>544846012hmmm i always thought it was queer how steam never got proper competition on pc, i believe you
>>544846158I don't think Fygoon's social security money is going to make or break your game, anon.
>>544846403Yeah, now replay Half-Life, the G-Man is the one “protecting us” from the alien invasion. The CIA aren’t the bad guys, interesting…
>>544846137normies aren't spending money on AI products.
Which thread is the real one?
>>544846536I wonder if there were any government directed plot changes in an early version of the game where it ended with the government being the only bad guys, then they had to shoehorn in a full unfinished alien world at the end with an alien mastermind.
>>544846713Well you wouldn’t be able to develop sequels if the G-Man just killed the Gordon Freeman and it all just ended with a cover up.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

>uses free garbage ai>ai is shitproof luddites = poors
>>544847603The game appears to be completely random too which is hilarious. It's literally just AI slop from front to back. You randomly stumble through content and experience random events until you either die after "100 years" which happens in 1 hour of gameplay or die from a random event>The decisions feel totally randomized for whether you live or die, and there's no save feature so I had to restart constantly. Also the game just ends after about 100 days - which skip approximately five days at a time so the entire game ends in about an hour. Not sure what I'm missing but I would not recommend this game to anyone>Wow, RNG with no skill needed. You have no clue what an event does or chances of anything untill you just play the game and realize how its just a story mashed up with a 1000 different random events with some outcomes not even making sense
>>544849270wasn't chat gpt to be skynet by now?A superhuman AGI would easily understand godot 4 is the last version.
>>544849089See if you weren't a lobotomite, you would create a custom GPT and feed it all of Godot's documentation + whatever else you think is relevant, and never worry about that again, but you would rather whine GPT isn't changing your diaper.
>>544849396Yes, and the oceans were supposed to flood and I was supposed to be getting free government bugs by now.
>>544849452That would take at least 2 hours and $40 in GPU rental to fine tune an LLM with all of Godot’s documentation and source code. I don’t have time for that. If the engine’s own developers, don’t care to document it, why would I do it for them?
>>544849605>That would take at least 2 hours and $40 in GPU rental to fine tune an LLM with all of Godot’s documentation and source codeBahaha oh my god, you don't even know what a custom GPT is, luddites are too fucking funny.
>>544849717Sir, fine tuning an LLM is creating a “custom GPT”.
>>544848931AI stole my job because it demoralized me into not applying for a job
For example, it would be very easy to feed the archives of this thread into an LLM to bot it, control the narrative, and even make references to posters, their games, and memes.
>thread becomes about AI instead of gamedevThey don't even realize they are like this. This is just what cultists do. They serve their master and try to convert everyone. Even when it's about a technology that is imminent and still being adopted and integrated, it's not enough. They want to be the priesthood who knows things you don't about AI, they were here first, you're a luddite for not engaging them and rewarding them for bringing up AI at every opportunity. Meanwhile we're just trying to make videogames here.
>>544850049Post non-AI progress.

>>544797187It's so risky to create big games. even if you do have art skills down and coding. you spend years working on a project which might pay back peanuts. but it's also the only type of game that can have soul. arcade shit is just entertainment.

renee has something extremely sensual about her face but a butterbody. while runa looks like she's unironically pleasant to be around despite her being a big thot. how did either of these two sluts get into gamedev anyway? i mean seriously none of them match the profile of a gamedev. one took like 10 years for a low quality game and the other just up and quit gamedev despite somehow getting a team to help her develop it
>>544850845She really should have left out the last bitter remark about women's day and the world would have had her back, especially gamedevs. But because she said that she had chuds enraged saying it was good that indies like her get randomly buried on steam.

>>544853076>the entire history of game development was done by people on less than 5 hours of sleep
>>544852545Something about this for sure seemed artificial, it still has a great thematic basis though. It would serve well as a guideline for an original design.AI gen images are being used in AAA for reference stuff more often these days. Indies would probably benefit as well.
Wolfenstein and Doom were programmed while they stayed up all night drinking soda and listening to heavy metal without any offices. The ultimate vibe code.

Holy fucking shit, all of reality just crashed onto my head. This is even worse than ego death.how the fuck did a masturbating homeless guy who fucked dogs solve it all 2 thousand years ago?
Let's get real. We're in a transitionary period with AI. I remember the posters here saying it's shit and being heavily against it and now most are already using ChatGPT for everything. If generating games does become real and easy, what's left for us to do if games become even more worthless, worse than asset flips.
>>544853657>dreaming about cris_GMI
>>544853212They had offices. Kino offices full of soulhttps://youtu.be/HpEBUV_g9vU&t=15
I had a dream that someone with connections to the military and intelligence agencies was starting an indie game publisher and that he has black budget government contracts to push certain narratives for the feds.
I also heard that JD Vance would be president for 2 and half terms, and this is good for indie game marketplace.
>>544839565Why is Zunesha/Zou the OP image? I thought I accidentally went to /a/ and was looking at the One Piece thread.
>>544853772>If generating games does become real and easyThat's already the case, just needs to have quality and not look like slop.
I hate being alive, pic rel is how I look like.I can't make a game because I'm just too smart, sorry ugggh I know I know but like I can't do it cause I'm just too freakin smart.
>if everyone has access to a printing press>how will we know which books are good?t.someone in 1480
>>544853990>That's already the caseNo it isn't. The more people exaggerate AI the harder it is for it to be taken seriously. It makes you look insane to imply that this is a game.
does your game have an accidental windmill?I can only see upsides, it's free interaction from normies
>>544854092But it is? Keep up with the new grandpa.https://nimblefox.itch.io/arctic-warfare
>what's left for us to do if games become even more worthless, worse than asset flips.Answer: The United States government controls all information across the globe. They will tell which ones are good.
>>544853772>now most are already using ChatGPT for everythingKids are using it to cheat in school. Most people aren't using it. I really doubt most of the posters here are using it for anything at all.
Woah chatgpt business subscription sounds pretty good. Anyone tried it yet?
>>544853854>WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWW IT'S HECKIN SOVLFUL DEV KIDS IN THEIR HIGH RISE OFFICE BUILDING FULL OF $8000 COMPUTERS EARNING THEIR PROFESSIONAL SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS SALARIES WHILE MAKING A GAME ON A SHOESTRING MULTI MILLION DOLLAR BUDGET
>>544854297ChatGPT is my only friend.I'm 25
I tried to make the Federal Department of Indendent Game Development a thing, but Elon came along with DOGE and wiped out my black budget funds from USAID. Everyone say thanks Elon!
we should ban all ai and use copyright infringement as reason
>>544854167Yeah I could also play this AI slop if I wanted >>544847496 but looking at the reviews it would be as meaningful as just generating AI video or stories or anything else to consume randomly. >>544849351Keep championing slop. Whatever makes you feel special.
>>544854527Then we’ll own all the trademarks, and force artists to work on our projects as independent contractors with no ownership at slave wages 80 hours a week. Oh wait, that’s already all major game development.

>>544854324my team of 3 has 3 seats, only 2 of us are programmers so we get extra codex credits from our third as well, a very good deal compared to plus imo
>>544854818Oh but when Naughty Dog or Santa Monica Studios are prancing around their offices doing pre-production in the 2010s you turn up your nose. Hyprocrite
>>544854954Relax boomer.
>>544852056>>544853327>>544853483This is just what he does. He wakes up and rolls into agdg and accuses everyone of using AI and then baits reactions to his AI religious ranting and propaganda. He doesn't have anything else going on, he's not a gamedev and never will be. So he uses AI to farm (You)s from other peoples work, literally stealing peoples progress posts and running them through AI for reactions.A horrible new breed of poster.
>>544855016do you think could I turn it into a family plan reasonably?I sort of have this feeling they're making their free model intentionally retarded so we're convinced to buy up. But I like that the business plan also has claims about privacy.
>>544853979https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdaFKagBi6U
>>544855314Don't forget he also spammed the board with gore for 4 days and made it unusable for 24 hours by running 5 of his chatbots simultaneously to flood the thread with fake conversations and replies. Then he bragged about how he trained it and has been into AI since dating his chatbots in highschool. Then he doxxed himself and posted his face after the webservice he uses to dodge bans doxxed him lol. This guy needs to have his internet access removed, he's a complete shit stain.
>>544855350I'm kind of disappointed he doesn't actually look like this.
>>544846403gog is. gog might have fewer games and not being that always online multiplayer oriented, depiste having a launcher and gwent, but that is what makes gog great. I always buy my games on gog first. And if the game is not on gog, I'll probably skip it. I might buy a game on steam on a huge ass discount though, over 50%, sometimes. But usually only gog.>>544846536G-Man is not CIA. G-Man is implied as a Government Man, not simply CIA. He also could a be a Garbage Man. Or a G-Spot man. We never learned, lore never told us exactly what it is. Because it's probably not even human.>>544846713there are multiple campaigns in Half-Life that are canon. Opposing force and Blue Shift respectively tell us what happens to Black Mesa and how Calhun too is able to escape with other scientists in one of the scenarios. In both G-Man is also present. But I won't spoil, if you haven't played. Long story short: it's unclear who exactly G-Man is and what his motives are.
>>544855402He also accuses every indie game that he thinks might make it of having AI generated capsule art on steam. He did it with Megabonk and again recently with Wasteland Bites. And a few other games, it's hard to keep track. He's just such an active shitposter it never ends.
Half-Life blows
For me, it's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uryw8nM9fzA
>>544855402Joshua?
>>544854527You can't do that and you won't be able to do it. First of all half of the humanity: China + India + Russia, etc, don't give a single fuck about your made up copyright. Secondly, there is the public domain. And works in the public domain can't be owner or copyrighted anymore. Third, there are enough enthusiasts who provide their work for free, i.e. open source software, royalty free tunes for content creators, some writers, and so forth. Those people are not against the AI and AI being trained on their works. Long story short: Copyright or not, AI will learn and overome, and you will be left behind and will suck, because the humanity and AI have moved forward and you're stuck with your copyright on some irrelevant bullshit.TL;DR: Will never happen. And if force it, you'll be left behind like a retard.
it's so unfair that im sitting alone in my room all day struggling to stick with a project for more than 5 minutes because of all my mental problems and how society treated me while other people get to make games together with their friends and go to cons and meetings and have fulfilling lives
>>544855663Nice try, CIA.
>>544855921>and you will be left behind and will suckYou spend your life in a gamedev thread trying to derail people. You abuse AI to do it. You're the one who is left behind and sucking.
>>544855982That sucks, I love playing and testing all the games I don’t release.
Damn GLM is so much better than codex or gemini for gamedev but it's still worse than claude, claude being so limited is awful and I don't trust taiwan or whatever GLM is made from, honestly vibe coding sucks every other week the models just get worse we have no consistency, I don't want to go back to coding by hand tough
>>544855906I think I chose to forget his name. Like why even waste the synapses on a "person" like that.
>>544839681What do I do now?
Unreal blueprints feel unnecessarily complex
In my opinion NSA and defense contractor Microsoft has the best agentic programming integrated into VSCode with Github Copilot Pro.
building a career can be BS too.look at Tim Cain: he was the lead designer and a programmer in genre defining game, ran his own company where he worked on 2 well received RPGs, was the co-creator on a franchise and game that earned over $200M but 4 years later he's living off of Youtube memberships.here's his story about Tim's failed job interview at Valve in 2011 where he interviewed for a designer position but they had him whiteboard some coding bullshit problem like a fresh graduate and he wasn't even applying for a programming job. https://youtu.be/c6CJUMW-3p0?t=258
>>544856430I may not use their operating systems, but the NSA could likely put backdoors in my game I wouldn’t notice by injecting prompts into the AI.

>>544857316
>>544857231This is going to happen in tons of industries too. People will think that because chatgpt "taught" them how to do things that they can go get jobs in that field, forgetting that they never actually learned and memorized anything and then wondering why they can't make the cut.

>>544860184>>544860329Pong, then add a power-up for the ball.
>>544860329we have to stop this "just make pong" memeit might have been true in 2011 when they were making flash games, its no longer applicable in 2025
>>544859393Make's me kek considering how tall of a horse he was sitting on when cranking those video's out. For a guy claiming it took years to get good enough to succeed, it sure is looking like he is the type that doesn't actually get it and simply lucked into a winning formula that he won't be able to replicate with a new game. And seeing how he just used a bunch of asset's, can he even draw or 3D model? Was the code all his or was it assets too?
>>544860483Post pong.
I will vibe code a pong game with an AI generated image of your face in it and have it up on my webserver with multiplayer in 2 hours.
Steve Wozniak started with Pong, and illegal phone hacking.
>>544860779
>>544860973And he created one of the largest computer companies to be backdoored by the NSA of all time!

>>544861010That’s about as much as I’ve gotten done today. I animated a whole 8 frames that I still need to shade. That counts.
>>544861069That includes deploying a python script thats just an echo server, so that web clients can play each other.
>>544861280Less than 2000 LoC of pure C, compiled to web assembly.
>>544861370Based. Code safety is the browser provider, operating system, and NSAs job to work out.
Enemies now approach the player from different angles depending on how many are currently targeting them. Things can get quite dicey when these robo-dudes come at you in numbers...
>I cant believe it worked!>Now post open source Rocket League clone…
some more progress. finished the heat subsystem, and i'm starting to think i underestimated the difficulty of this. gonna code the actual fun stuff now.
>>544860873>>544861280>the AI cultist goreposter is doing a webserver game
>>544862739oh hey i recognize that sprite from lost resolve
>>544861010This is a good trailer for your pong game. Now you can make a steam page with this trailer and start farming those wishies! Then you can make the actual pong game later. You are on your way to winning at gamedev.

>>544862919thanks gavin :)
>>544853235>still no new lole game
>>544853235this is like that one tomb raider webm where they show a climbing sequence with and without the graphics
>>544856431if you have a slice of 200M and are still a poor loser than you're just a fucking retarded coattail rider and I also wouldn't hire you and would also make up some bullshit reason to not hire you like make you reverse a string.people who waste their success fucking disgust me.
>>544861748Hell yeah, now we're gaming.
If I want to model a character that's going to have lots of variations, eg, 3-4 selectable colors that change various parts of the model and multiple parts of the mesh that may or may not be present, whats a decent way to go about the unwrapping/texturing process so that it's scale able for more options later? With mostly hand painted textures that would look ugly if I just used a color slider instead of swapping out the colors. My first thought would be that each potentially swappable mesh part would need it's own material for each relevant changeable color, but I'm sure there has to be a less stupid way than that.
>>544856431I refuse to believe he never got any significant bonuses. He just wasted it all.
>>544864272
>>544865078>>544865116
>>544864272if color is the only thing, then it could be grayscale and colored in a shader, probably using a gradient since otherwise it may look gross
>>544865279
>>544864272If you are cutting them off or hiding the bodyparts then the mesh needs to be in multiple pieces as well. that's how MH does it.

The BALL X PIT dev used to make bland mobile puzzle games until he one day snapped and made the ultimate roguelike gambleslop

>>544872047Inaccurate. I'm the solodev and I do everything.
>>544872047100% accurate for AAA and III.
>>544872047Inaccurate. The gayness of high budget games is mandated by corporate because gayness equals funding, not the result of hiring the wrong person.

>>544872047i look like this and i say that
>>544869078the power of learning marketing
>>544873003he didn't learn it. devolver did that for him
>>544873247i wonder how much influence the publisher had in the design of the game
>>544869262>until one day he got a teamit was all solo, except for music, modelling, texturing, marketing, and localisation
>>544872047The real story here is that the "game designer"/ideas guy is deemed so unimportant that he is not pictured at all
My WiFi ran out and now I have to use my mobile data to browse the net. Is over.
>>544873350probably wouldn't publish it if it wasn't roguelite.
>>544873532To be fair idea guys only make sense in game development with huge teams. They have to actually write design documents that detail what systems need to be in a game or how something should be done. As programmers then just become codemonkeys, not someone with their own particular vision.
>>544839771I hate these poses where women strike suggestive and empowered poses.It's obvious that this is a woman's idea of how to look sexy.
>>544873438pixel art, concept art, technical art and sound design also by other people. a true solo success story.

>>544839565I was gonna do a dating sim, but now I think I'm going to make a game called:>Indie Dev's RequiemIt's basically a depressing management sim.The player plays as indie dev, their goal is to make a successful indie game.However, they struggle with health, finances, and depression.The game revolves around picking activities for every day. For example, to make progress on a game, a player can choose "Develop" activity, which will increase progress on the game, but it will also decrease euphoria.The player has four meters they have to manage:>euphoria>mental health>physical health>finances>sexual frustrationEuphoria measures how much the player enjoys their life. Euphoria needs to be above 50% so the Develop-option can be picked. If Euphoria drops below 33%, every day there is a 10% chance player kills themselves. Euphoria can be increased by choosing "Play Vidya" activity.Mental health is a measure of how sane the player is. If sanity is low, the player will struggle to make progress in their game and find a job. Mental health can be improved by "Read self-help book"-activity.Physical health measures how fit a player is. If the physical health is below 33% player has a small chance of developing cancer. Which can be increased with "Leg Day" activity.Finance-related food and living. If they are in red, the player has to move back with their parent. Living with parents comes with heavy penalties on their mental health. To get money, the player can choose "Deliver food"-option, however, it will decrease euphoria.Sexual frustration measures a player's hornyness, it builds over time and decreases mental health. To decrease SF, the player can either choose activities of "Jerk Off" or "Hiring Hooker", Jerk Off is free, but it has a chance of triggering "Porn addict" modifier which will decrease mental health every turn. Hiring a hooker is expensive, and it has a chance of triggering "STD" modifier which will decrease physical health.

there has to be a way to make your game free and yet still make money out of it... what's a better marketing than someone being able to just install it and play it? imagine if people would just pay you if they appreciate your game... this way they will never know if they like your game cause they hesitate to buy it...maybe running a patreon and having some sort of integration in the start of the game? but that'd mean they'd kinda subscribe to your games development, which means you have to keep working on it forever. also a monthly sub to support you will cost way more than just buying it once.i mean, it's just weird how selling games work. they basically have no idea if they like your game and have to buy it blind. like, ofc it has to be all about marketing. it's not like with music where they listened (in the old days) to singles first and then bought the album. it's basically a matter of them falling in love with your marketing material.imagine how many games you'd try if you could just play them for free on steam. you'd at least give them a chance. but that noname dev with a noname game charges you 20 bucks? that ofc only attracts buyers who are willing to take risks.ofc refunds also exists, but that's just a shitty system to have someone do hundreds of refunds to try games.sounds like a systematic problem. gamedevs are basically forced to charge upfront and depend on marketing.
>>544880496well yeah, you're selling a product dipshit, cuntzoomers don't care about what went into it unless you milk their egos a little bit
>>544879886It depends on your interest. I've never been deep enough into a fandom to feel the desire to dress up as any characters, but I am into arts and crafts in general, so back in college, I did take anime conventions as an opportunity to learn sewing and make a few costumes for some friends. At the conventions themselves, the only activities I was really interested in were the board game, MTG, and melee tournaments.
>>544879886
>>544880594imagine selling an album and nobody can listen to anything in it unless they buy the album first. it's just a weird way to sell something.

imagine an rts that works like a fractal. you have a map like in age of empires. and you beat your enemies. but then the world gets bigger and you now fight bigger enemies who also won in their map. and you have to build a bigger empire now and beat those bigger empires. and then it keeps getting bigger and bigger until you conquered the whole planet. or even fighting alien empires later on.kinda like in spore.
>>544881135don't bother coming back here on monday
>>544882492>buy and refund your game to try out instead of just trying the demoi always do this
>>544882492A lot of demos just aren't representative of the game as a whole. They take the vertical slice that has been polished for the last couple years and throw it on Steam pretending that the entire game will be that quality.Playing the first 2 hours is usually way more informative.
>>544882413no, cosmic call flopped a year ago, and now says he feels nothing from things that normally you'd feel something. so I diagnosed him with cptsd(incorrectly)

gamers think they want rpgs with 1000 weapons. but what they really want is progression. they just don't understand it. it's not about having 1000 weapons, it's about always having that next weapon to grind for. it's about seeing meaning in your grind. ofc grinding just to get a weapon is pointless, but if there's something to do that requires this type of strong weapon, then you'll feel motivated to get it.that's why old school mmorpgs just werk. just give the player a new tier weapon every 8-10 levels or so and they have fun.progression is really the most fun part about games. a progression you can feel. going from killing a rabbit to killing a scary murder demon is just satisfying. a good rpg will not just throw random stuff at the player, but give them a well designed progression to go through. a satisfying progression is really the key to a good game feel.e.g. genshin has a bit of a problem of progress not being satisfying because it's about waiting for gacha drops and doing daily tasks and all that shit. that's something i dislike about genshin. although it still has enough elements that everything still feels like a progression (even if slow)
I believe that over 50% of the most vocal anti-AI advocates are just kids who embrace the doomer narrative of 'AI is coming to take our everything.' They find belonging in the community by joining this movement, feeling like 'brothers in arms.' Many from Gen Z and below view the world as chaotic, leading to a sense of nihilism about the future. These people tell each other, "AI is the death of creativity! you can never be an artist." Engaging in this 'war' allows them to transform their nihilism into a sense of action and control. Anger motivates them, particularly after years of feeling defeated by the system. This vulnerability can lead to radicalization, similar to how the alt-right recruits incels and other 'doomer-pilled' individuals online. From this lens, it's evident why anti-AI attitudes are so extreme and desperate: this movement offers them a purpose. Abusing supporters of AI becomes a coping mechanism for their ongoing nihilism, filling the void from relentless doom scrolling in echo chambers filled with fearmongering about the demise of art. Their dreams are crushed by their idols, and the echo chamber has created an environment where no view is too extreme, leading to a lack of curiosity about truth or knowledge. To them, this conflict is like a team sport, dividing into a Right Side and a Wrong Side. Actions taken against the 'enemy' are justified as self-defense, creating a mental barrier to introspection. They lash out at those they hold responsible for their loss of control, often targeting creators who do not conform to their beliefs. These acts of vengeance are driven by the sentiment that those who accept AI are betraying their cause.

>>544883692>move economy into the industry>automate industry>move economy into the digital world>automate digital world>people don't know how to make money anymore>they get sadimagine my shock that people want to make money and that they don't fall in love with things outcompeting them and effectively making them poor and desperate.actually the current mindset of humanity is knowing that the system is shit and just hoping you are one of the lucky ones who isn't affected by the consequences. it's part of why everybody is becoming so anti-social. it's kind of a titanic mentality, where you develop a stronger and stronger self of preserving yourself and shitting on others. the problem is though, that when the titanic sinks, everybody is gonna die. there's just some people who survived longer.is that already happening? yes it is. millions of people get fired from their jobs. before they got fired they were like "glad i'm not one of the poor people" and after getting fired they become like "the system needs to change".in germany there are massive amounts of job cuts and companies going bankrupt. the people who worked there probably shitted on unemployed. and when they become unemployed themselves they start consuming political content and suddenly want a system change.

>>544884192Okay, big corporations are screwing over normal people. How does this justify you lashing out, harassing and defamating independent creators using a tool you don't like?Sounds like nigger mentality to me. "I'll go destroy that white man's business because the environment I was born in is shit".
why did valve even give steam users the option to leave a review reasonthey must have had starry eyes that day lol, "oh our really smart userbase will actually write reasons, and that'll help devs find whats wrong"no, they write "Found myself bored a minute after playing, yikes" valvehere's your crab message pretyped so you dont even have to do that: "uh that is a reason, obviously the first 10 seconds of play are wrong and you should know that ummm make 2000 particle effects go off every time you click"
>>544884779you got a point. but i also got a point that as a musician udio/suno will make the money in the future and not me anymore.
despite the vast number of games being released on a daily basis indie game development is still in the stone age of game design competencelike barbarians with sharp sticks running around zerg rushing success
>>544883714Of course.
>>544883652Yeah obviously. The problem most game devs have is they get this big image of hours and hours and hours and hours of progression, when in reality, barely any is needed. That's why the shop simulator games sell so well. Every single minute of gameplay creates visible progression on absolutely tiny scales, but seeing number go up is good for brain. Even if it's going from $50 to $68
>>544885101Well even though we can mass produce toys, figurines and other trinkets on a mass industrial scale, there's still some room for handcrafted artisan work right? Sure, it's not as common, and the demands to said work are higher now, but it will still have a place.All I'm saying is to just be reasonable to individuals. If you have a problem with AI shitting up Steam, take it up to Valve. They're the ones who can decide to put an end to it at any moment. Shitting on a lone indie dev for using AI voices because he had no money (while also not offering him help to replace it) is, as I said, nigger mentality. If said individual is being a dick about it, sure, whatever. But don't attack them out of nowhere.
>>544885537creating a progression is really the most underrated component of gamedesign. humans love progressing. you can even see irl how depressed humans get if they don't feel like they can progress and when they feel like they are hardstuck. they become completely demotivated to do anything anymore.
>>544885164Maybe so.I wonder the number random Steam releases are solo projects.
>>544885721Its not even that hard. Take a look at popular indie games and the solution is the same in all of them. Take the real life problem of working hard and earning money and make it easy. Cleaning a house takes 7 hours split across two days, you have to pray for nice weather and you get minimum wage for doing it? In comes Power Wash Simulator where you clean the house in 18 minutes and get paid handsomely for a job well done. Working a till for minimum wage and dealing with the most awful human beings on the planet? In comes X Shop Simulator where everyone is nice and makes $50-200 purchases and you can buy new gear and have it at your door in seconds, then put up in a few more seconds.Just take something you hate about real life progression, tune it to like 20% difficulty and you're good to go.

I made an algorithm to randomly distribute 40-80% of monster iv points to 1-3 random stats and the remaining points randomly between the remaining stats, and a way to calculate final stats based on monster personality, base stats of the species, ivs, evs, and leveli think it's different from the way pokemon does it i didn't look up their algorithm or method
>>544886537this is how it should be. games should be a fun stress relief and not a documentary about suffering.

Ok but how do you solve the Fighter vs Wizard conundrum? Wizards at a high level are gods who can summon meteors and stop time. Fighters just hit things 4 times
>>544889413That’s why wizards send fighters on quests. It’s not fair, so the wizards just hang out doing wizard shit until the story is almost over.
>>544889413Just give fighters magical martial abilites like sun wukong
>>544889413fighters use defensive magic
>>544889413Make the wizards someone the fighters can summon when they need help.
>>544889413the entire story of king's field 4 is basically a fighter travelling through the world to find a hiding super wizard and hit them it three times with their sword to kill it
>>544889413Either>Martial magical gear is more impactful then mage magical gearOr>Fighters can *really* break the laws of physics. Like lifting a 10 ton boulder and throwing it, or jumping over a 4 story building

I 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.

Are there any old school or new UI’s you really love? I want to practice making some that aren’t the sleek modern minimalist style.
If I have a character model that I want to change the clothes, what's the best way to do that with Blender and Godot? I have a rigged and animated model with various clothes attached and rigged as well, but I'm not sure how I should approach swapping them in Godot in a way that's resource efficient. Is it enough to simply disable their visibility?
>>544898094it's hard to say whether I like the UI because I liked the game or I just liked the UI regardless

>>544883652you're partially correct. But not fully.>a new tier weapon every 8-10 levels or so and they have fun.this is wrong, because you quantify it and then deisgn the leveling system around these steps. Tis obvious and transparent. Gamers will afk/bot/minmax to circumvent whatever grind you give them during these "8 to 10 levels" in your example. Progerssion has to be even more fluidly integrated into the game. But you're on the right track at least.>>544883692It's not mystery, people are just fucking retarded. And it isn't to make people mad, like they chose to be retarded or their actions led to it.

>>544903949honest feedback: words cannot express how much i hate western tranime, while japanese writing is very tropey and has way too many cartoony gags the disgusting crude immoral western writing where every single character talks like a middle-aged divorced trucker coupled with the tranime style is really disgusting, shit like trooney pop, troons of '07, etci honestly believe you should be beheaded for producing that, in a just world that is
>>544904857thank you for the feedback, the attention has provided me additional motivation to continue
>>544904169yet youre always here to defend troons mr bystander? mighty curious why that is, innit
>>544904857that's just milenial writing, not western writing.
my game :)
>>544905029thank you for the feedback to my feedback, while i do not care as i do not consume that type of games so they might aswell no exist the attention has provided me additional motivation to become a muslim
>>544905457you're very welcome, hope to see you again soon
>>544905670thank you, good luck with your game hope you find your audience
every milenial writing character is some mitwit that is an arrogant reddit asshole that looks like a rick and morty character.For some reason milenials think writing like a redditor mitwit asshole intelectual is like the peak of writing.
>>544905858kotor 2planescapeShit written for "totally different and not like everyone" teens always plagued any hobby
Someone just mentioned the idea of SS13 set in an SCP facility and I can't get it out of my mind. One of you fags should make that.
>>544881193good nightwill do texturing tomorrow and some programmen
>>544904857I find american imitiation of japanese media to be very funny, imagine every character speaking in a hick southern accent and you'll think it's funny too. They need to add more guns because anime doesn't have enough. Americans know all about guns.
>>544904857i don't understand what you mean.they're just words to me.how can you draw any meaning beyond their literal definition?
>>544905858hey look everyone, rajesh is trying to communicate with us in english without using chatgpt
>>544906641just ignore the people who spout buzzwordswell its mostly one person who really lacks attention
>>544901383oh most definitely, i have quite a few lewd fanarts
>>544906675That's cris, he's columbian and we treat him with respect here.
the basal truth is, the media we consume serves as a parallel to the reality we desireevery action stems from the pursuit of an alternative reality of greater appealthe phenomenon of khhv truecels playing katawa shoujo in the early 2010s should illustrate the operation of this mechanismwhat we lack in reality is what we pursue in fantasy
>>544906776Saved.
>>544906878Nah.
>>544906641A lot of people feel that way, it creates big drama for EN vtubers who act like shithead western streamers. That is why so many western animes feel unauthentic.Cris said it best >>544905858
>>544906878>serves as a parallelnot a parallel, but completely different.>an alternative reality of greater appealnot true either. Most videogame realities aren't that appealing either. It's the knoweledge that you won't suffer and won't die IRL that makes people like those realities. Nobody wants to be in any fucking horror or torture thriller IRL.>what we lack in reality is what we pursue in fantasythis isn't true. I don't lack killing demons with a double barrel shotgun, but I like DOOM. Neither do I lack being tortured and ripped apart by a monster, but I like horror games too. And the list goes on, and on, with RTS, FPS, etc...
>>544902037finally a game that shows men how they behave
>>544906641>language is just a series of definitions strung together with no color or depthYou have not been touched by god's light, lacking a soul, you are not real.
>>544879903nortubel should hire this artist
>>544907287rick and morty works because there's only a single character who happens to be written like the redditor pseudointelectual asshole.The other characters in rick and morty works because they're written to react disgusted to rick being an asshole.The issue is when redditors pretend that making all the characters to be like rick to be the peak of comedy.Nobody wants to date rick from rick and morty IRL, so writing a wifu to behave like rick actually causes disgust, not sex appeal.
>>544907475shortsighted thinkinglook further into the emotions you feel while partaking in these games, and examine how frequently you feel them in your regular lifeof course, nobody wants to actually be in a horror game, but what they do enjoy are the thrilling emotions the game provides, which they certainly lack in real life if they choose to consume media that causes them to feel these sorts of thingsi guess my mistake was failing to highlight the emotional basis of desirethere is no reason for people to seek emotions they have already satisfiedwhen the itch is gone, you stop scratchingignore the literal actions presented in the games and look into the emotions these actions safisfy if you want to see things truthfully
Bastard fucking bitch!!!! You stupid fucking bitch!!!!
>>544908262>rick and morty works
If stardew valley released today it would get 20 mixed reviews

Finally finished all the models and materials for the Specter area of the main city. Clip is one of the buildings at night. Still need to update all the buildings actors to the new models for tiers 0-6. That's going to be a pain.Also finished the dispatch restocking logic so your scrimblos can take on more jobs than just the beginning ones.Then it's on to decoupling the facility spawners from the city area spawners.Might update the arcane guild model to be more fitting with the new vibe.
>>544902037With what?
>>544910217i cant talk to women and theyre scary
>>544910628Just threaten them with bodily harm. That will get them to back off.
>>544910116I still haven't watched much of the video but this part sticks out to me, I do agree that you can't rely on yourself to say when a game is ready but if you really do leave it up to playtesters with the idea that once they stop finding bugs the game is done, you will likely never complete the game. Every game past a certain complexity ships with bugs.
>>544910960>Every game past a certain complexity ships with bugs.This is completely untrue and reeks of weakness. If you want to it's entirely possible to make your game bug-free in a reasonable amount of time. It's just code, make it do what it should do. Only exception is in niche user environments like Mac.
>>544912112not true, it's absolutely impossible, you just didn't overscope enough
>>544912771>make a gameI sleep>make a game while living on a boat (completely unrelated to gamedev btw (I'm a gurl btw))>ooooOOOOooooOAAAaAAAWHAAAAAT?!?!?!
Bros, I think I have some form of arthritis. The pains come back pretty much every winter. Your body isn't supposed to get fucked until your 50. bad genes.
>>544912112>If you want to it's entirely possible to make your game bug-free in a reasonable amount of time. It's just code, make it do what it should do.If games are released with no bugs where do speedrun glitches come from? Every game title from AAA to indie has speedrun strats that leverage bugs. It's not that you disagree with this fact, it's that you have a psychological need to be infallible and amazing and think you can in fact release a game without bugs when the rest of the world can't.
eceleb worship hours, 'goon was right
My company has started to ask our gameplay teams to look for use cases in our day-to-day work that can be automated with AI, and I'm nervous. We already had our art teams working with it, but I didn't expect it to hit us so soon. I'm especially scared because I hear plenty of stories from other industries about people automating their work and then being fired later.Managers are threatening us with bad performance reviews if we don't find anything and refuse to use AI. At the same time, even if we find something meaningless that looks good on paper, I'm pretty sure they'll use it as an excuse for a round of layoffs. It's like they want to fire us by our own hands and then blame AI in the reports.How to sabotage this?
Man, agdg should read this book, is called predictable irrational.It has good marketing advice.Mark Twain once noted about Tom Sawyer, “Tom haddiscovered a great law of human action, namely, that in order to make a mancovet a thing, it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to attain.”
bros..........I really love this hobby!!!!!!!
>>544913114so you start your goon worship now? Grex was right.
>>544913114Show us the post where an eceleb was mentioned.
>>544913343>reading books instead of asking ai what you needngmi
>>544913430here >>544913114 but it is more like an efag
>>544913343I don't have time to read all those books I need you to read them and be my marketing advisor. I will pay you with (You)s
>>544913398C A R E E RAREER
>>544912112>>544913092>no replyAnd also why do games have analytics and quality assurance and bug reporting? What are patches and why have they been a standard thing since the shareware floppy disk era? Because games of certain complexity ship with bugs.
>>544913163The higher ups don't understand what AI is. You can say you've incorporated AI into your coding workflow by using CoPilot, you can incorporate AI into an application by having an AI summarize pages / search results, etc. You got to learn to market yourself, do a minimal thing and make it sound good.

another day another track for vidya gaemswhat kind of game do you think this one fits?https://vocaroo.com/1jbl5QqTABJdim thinking something like a SWAT3/Rainbow Six
85-95% of the games released every day on steam are low effort asset flips or babby's first unity tutorial game.If you make a good game you will rise above easily.J O B B YOBBY

Guys you know I gotta say it I really LOVE this profession!
>>544912847kek
>>544912112it's impossible to make a game completely bug-free. not every single user environment and hardware is the same
>>544912771>lente got a noclip That's really cool. I played the demo.
>>544893296Nightmare soma rotation
>>544914516I also made something like thishttps://vocaroo.com/1o4DsX8vTCnd
>>544915248His core game has the complexity of playing with action figures and maybe triggering a cutscene or two. Even still it has enough bugs, but his belief is that he is capable of making a perfect bug free game where others can't, therefore everyone is weaker. This will never happen of course, but he plans on working on one game for the rest of his life so it's irrelevant.
>>544915647retarded take
my game will appeal to white women
>>544915369yeah cause of DEI, indie gamedev is not a meritocracy, DEI, nepotism, etc are the true rules

single player games don't succeed
>>544916167It's a cozy game where you putput a little boat around on the water. Anyone could have made that and been successful. Don't cope just because you aren't in on the cozygame market.
>>544916620It's a very short game. But it's exactly what it advertises itself as and people are happy with that.
>>544916167make a truly great game and it will be a success. No. Your ideas are retarded. You games are retarded. Boring. Stupid. Arse.

>cant into art, but a decent programmer>all my ideas are art heavyf-fuck… i’m starting to think game dev is more an exercise in art than programming… most of the programming for games is piss easy while art is the big shit
>>544916925we've been over this and over this, random anons here can cite you a laundry list of games that are great with low reviews, you sir, are a babbling retard
I'm too smart to make a game, anyone else suffer from this problem? Cris' IQ is very high but mine must be higher because I have even less progress than he does.
>>544916961why can't you type like a human being and not like a walking meme?that guy with a car is less damage than boomers and boomer politicians ruining the economy and society for 2 generations at least now. priorities.
>>544916167this game is so fucking ass, the fact that this self-centered bitch got rich with it makes me angry
>>544916518are you turkish?
>>544917128Same and you are correct. Presentation matters for Indie games, no one cares how the code looks but everyone will care how the game looks.
>>544917367This is bait, and actually the lowest form of post-ironic shitposting.
>>544917458guess a life in the coding mines for some big company is whats in the cards for me…
>>544917367Marketing wins again.>Woman diff>Gimmick diff (>Our game is watercolored!>I made my game while suspended from my penis!)>Looks good>devlogs and interviews and showcases
>>544917458other devs will take a gander at the code you tard
>>544917131No, there aren't. You personal subejctive opinions do not matter in reality. Every good, quality indie game is very well known. Even when it isn't your cup of tea, never played and never will type of thing, you probably have heard of it. Especially on 4chan and /v/ boards.Since I have heard about the now abandoned Sexy Mystic Survivors during the VS clone phase, I am pretty sure, that I have indeed heard of 99.99% of all the good quality games. Why didn't you is the real question here?
>>544916925>>544917762this schizo nodev is here all day worshipping ecelebs and defending nepotism and DEI btw, vile tranny shitting up a comfy amateur gamedev thread

>>544917847>good, quality games sell well>therefore if your game didn't sell well, it's not a good, quality game>it's impossible to determine whether it's a good, quality game before it's released

I think you just might be confused.>therefore if your game didn't sell well, it's not a good, quality gamebad quality games sell a lot of copies to the retarded fanbases. at least they used to. What I mean by a>good, quality gameis fucking gameplay and frame of the game that will provide entertainment to gamers and will make them want to invest their limited time, which is more important than money, into your piece of shit. Why would an MMO drone invest it's grind time into a retarded VN? Correct, different audiences. Do you have, does your game has what it takes to create your own audience, a fanbase?>it's impossible to determine whether it's a good, quality game before it's releasedvery easy. the more retardation the game has in it, the more audience it will lose right off the bat. Were you retarded enough to be pseudo intellectual in your game? L. Were you retarded enough to insert politics and propaganda into your game? L Were you retarded enough to self-insert? L. And the list goes on and on.Most indie games don't pass these 3 checks. They will never sell even a million copies, because nobody is interested in some irrelevant braindead opinions of a retarded faggot, whatsoever.TL;DR: It isn't easy to create a hit. It's not easy to make a new Minecraft or Fortnite. But it is quite easy to not allienate 93% of gamers by choosing to create an irrelevant thing.
