>>545046692Hang out in creative circles and make genuine friends.
>>545046178Is that goblin on the counter a nortubel character or was it a dirk character that cameo'd in nortubel
>>545047020>creative circlesWhat if I don't want to hang out with posers?

>>545046775>inb4 a fat hairy man posts "I look like this" while snickering to himself
>>545046692>that interactionKEK! But seriously the only way you're going to have an easy time forming a team in 2025 is like Sokpop or BiteMe, by knowing them irl. There's also /agdg/ but that depends on whether you all mesh together and aren't too far in skill level. I wish I was on a 4 man team of aggy daggers.
What's the minimum you'd accept to be a publisher's bitch?
>>545047137impossible, all creative circles are 80% retards and 20% real people. Your other option is to make life long friends at a young age who happen to develop a complimentary skill to yours, which is what I did
>>545046775@grok can you turn this image from a shitty drawing to a well made artwork
>>545047364$200k
>>545047364Idk id want to keep atleast 30%
>>545047337>only way you're going to have an easy time forming a team in 2025 is like Sokpop or BiteMe, by knowing them irl.It's fuarking over...
>>545047364They can have 50% but they need to be able to fund my current lifestyle + current salary for the next 3 years and I want an additional $3000 a month to pay for contractors. Also all my software licenses.
>>545047364$300k USD upfront with no rights to any past or future games me or my company made/makes. Max of 25% cut for 5 years max. I've seen how they can be, I don't wanna get stuck for life with one publisher. This is a parasitic relationship btw which is why I need a huge upfront pile of cash. They seek to parasite off me but I do of them as well so am I really their bitch? $300k means that once I'm done with the game I have a large runway for a few more games over a period of no less than 7.5 years. Although I'd just invest the cash and accelerate my escape into permanent neetdom.
>>545046775
>>545046692Your average discord "artist" is somewhere in the ballpark of 15-30 IQ points lower than your average discord "programmer". "Programmers" are much more open to doing revshare because they intuitively understand the concept of front-loaded work for long-term returns.That said, "programmers" and "artists" don't make games. That's why all revshare projects fall apart. You need game designers, art directors, and product managers.
>>545046692If you want to rev share, you have to have the project at a promising point already.Make a good demo without art to prove that you're worth working with.Also be upfront about the rev share.

>>545047082>he doesn't know Nortubel lore
>>545048054Artists understand that their value is in their art and programmers understand their value is in their code. I could give you the Mona Lisa on a revshare basis, but if you choose to display it in your basement for $10000 per ticket and exclusively for nudists, then you're going to fuck my art out of its actual worth. But a programmer understands that they are personally responsible for how good the game will be, so feel more comfortable betting on themselves.
oh you motherfuckers, listen: steam revenue calculator says trainwiz made 43 fucking grand net from 366 reviews at $19.99. HE is fucking saying that he has fucking netted 300 fucking grand. now use your retarded brain and wonder for yourself for a moment, how in the FUCK, could he possibly net 300 fucking grand off of a review estimation of 43 fucking grand? riddle me that one, retards. we're talking 7 fucking times difference
>>545048080>If you want to rev share, you have to have the project at a promising point already.Why would I rev share with you if I can get to that point myself, retard? Do you not understand what revshare is?
>>545048054So basically you need a Marnix....
>>545048495You're not talking about a programmer. You're talking about a game designer and director. In the gamedev world, too many retards equate the role of "programmer" to "literally everything that's not visual art asset creation". The vast majority of "artists" are honestly shit and worthless on a team because they don't want to be a teammate. They want to be an employee.
>>545048606see >>545046618
>>545048606I've yet to see a single dev that said the steam revenue calculator was anywhere close to accurate. It's a meme tool.

>>545048436Here's nortubel lore summarized:>loli dick in my mouth
>>545048865No I'm talking about a programmer. What they understand what is true are different things.
>>545048692My bad. I was under the impression that you were a programmer who was looking for an artist.
>>545048925I accept your concession.
>>545048946*what they understand and what is true are different things
imagine making a game in Common Lisp
>>545048917It gave me about half of what my real sales are, I don't understand who it's meant for
>>545049223nobody is so why bother imagining it you brainLet
>>545047303you missed the bald part
>>545049227when your sales are single digits i don't really think it matters too much
>>545049101You don't understand.
>>545049573What's understood doesn't need explained.
>updated to Godot 4.5>get this error whenever I'm loading and instantiating from a filepath ( var loaded_element = load(path).instantiate() )>The game runs perfectly fine despite the errorpic related is the code iterating over an array of paths, I have no idea why the mismatch is different between the paths or why it would even matterWhat could be causing this?

I was very productive today but it exposed how much work there's still to be done.I have nothing better to do though. No job and no hope of getting one, so it's full steam ahead.

>>545048986So you demand that a programmist gives you an almost complete game so you can decide if it's worth to revshare, but if a programmist asks you to prove that you can actually work in team, then it's heckin oppression and insolence and fuck programmists I'll use AI instead? Fuck you.

>>545050389>It looks cool but the style mismatch is awful, I can't stomach pixel art clashing with these hi-res flame and lightning effects.That's what I'm asking/wondering. I've seen so many games get released where I notice things looking out of place or I would've done differently or "fixed" then there's anons saying here don't focus on the details and just make it. So if both are true why would it matter?>>545050587You're sort of right but the overton window is shifting I think.>>545050662I don't lack the skills I already learned how to do most of it before AI was a thing. My main issue with it before was either you make it yourself, use public assets or buy assets if really needed in domains you're not that great at. But I think my main concern now is just the legal aspect before fully making use of the AI tools, some site claims you can just use Grok generated input and outputs commercially with no issue though.picrel some 256fes test I AI generated the texture for
>>545050974Nobody said you can't have demands for the artist who wants to work for you, this does go both ways.But understand that when you show up asking for someone to work with you, unless you have something to show, you're going to look like a waste of time.>almost complete gameI said make a good demo without art. That is not an almost complete game and if you think it is, then that's a huge red flag.

I'M RIGHT ALL THE FUCKING TIME!!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAXKxKTGWFQHoly shit this is like when my mom yelled at me for week because I inverted my S&P, Nasdaq, and Semiconductor stock weights. She was telling me that gambling 70k on semiconductors was irrational and how she wasn't going to bail me out and how I'm going to ruin my life. Crypto all over again. Crypto is better than long term T-bills. My 6 month returns are insane right now.Boomers think they know stocks because they have a 401k and watch fox business.I want dumbass people to think it's a bubble, they don't know anything about fucking finance. How can a cycle of a semi-complete graph of N companies sustain a that much cash flow? That's not a fuckign bubble that's proof of market stability!I'm not big into option trading but I do algo trade small chips with options and I'm also winning there. 99% of option traders are retarded, and I have enough volume to actually win on the market.OOOOOH AND LOOK WHO IS ASKING FOR MR.

>>545059236that would make sense
>>545059631Let's see yours?
>>545059631>learning to code.what a meme, you should only be focusing on creative tasks and strategy for making AI do all the work
>>545059631Remember how everyone kept saying that in depth knowledge is lost because of engines. We're way past that, it's gotten even worse.

I don't want to code. I can manage a visual style of picrel (maybe with slightly less polygons especially when relating to human models) and do level design but I can't find a coder to work with.I don't understand why should I learn complicated code stuff instead of collabing with someone when I want to focus on the visual and design aspects of gamedev.

>>545057141Music sells largely based on who you are rather than the actual quality of your work. I've noticed a lot of successful bands will have really nerdy looking people in the background and then a noteworthy front man or front women to carry the appeal of the band.This is probably the best thing about the video game industry, nobody cares about the person behind the game. You actually have to succeed based on your work.

>>545062294The only market research I do is when it's a relevant game to the one I'm making.>tfw bought a relevant game>never played itI'm regretting that purchase despite getting it for like 90% off
>>545059830It's not really lost, there's books. See "Michael abrash's graphics programming black book" it's absolute kino. You can also study libre engines like doom and quake engines. But yeah some people here for some reason are very against programming and being technical (I guess they think it's pointless and won't lead to a game?)
>>545062095which one

>>545058691You want progress? Here. There are no more big leaps to do, only boring incremental progress that is barely visible.
>>545063320Sounds like you want to make art and levels for a game instead of making a game in that case

There's a scam happening on the v3expo Discord server. A moderator is privately messaging users, promising a free year of Claude code and Comet Browser for game development. They get you to sign up for Comet Browser (earning them $3) and then ask you to log in with your Gmail account, claiming it's to sync your mobile data. This connects your Google account across devices, allowing them to steal your data. The Discord owner has blocked me when I tried to warn them.
Distroons get what they deserve

Sexual in nature for simply facing away from the camera??? Bruh it's a screenshot of the game how the fuck does>clothed but backside shot = sexual nature?Oh don't mind me while I walk behind Kisha in the office. All she needs to do is do this to the wrong dev team that makes a big scene of it on social media and she'd be fired by Gabe himself. A literal dei hire gatekeeping a gamedev store

Had to call Unity support over some license bullshit and I'm still not sure if I was talking to a human or a bot. The thing on the other end kept repeating the same generic lines and the background noise sounded fake as hell. But then it would reply instantly, faster than any wagey could, and I could hear mouse clicks like it was actually doing something. Spent 20 minutes on the line and I still have no idea. Unsettling as hell.

>>545074429Weird. But to be fair, I worked a phone job involving legal quotes. We had to do it verbatim. Otherwise you're giving a unwritten contract and legally it gets weird. So I'm not sure a human would be of more help.

how do I make an appealing game?
I think is funny I am now thinking of writing a tool to parse mugen characters data into godot own data structures, and automatically import the mugne sprites and sort of like automate most of the porting of a mugen char into godot.
I need a second opinion on this ear model. I feel something is wrong but IDK which direction to go in
i have noticed a pattern in gamedevs to hold onto false beliefs and ideas just in order to avoid desperation. it seems like people are more comfortable believing in something that doesn't work and running down the cliff, rather than tackling the reality that they don't know how to avoid the cliff and that it's fucking hard to figure out how to avoid it.you could argue that if you fall down the cliff anyways, then at least you get to "chill" for the rest of your life until you fall down, because you feel hopeful.but if you really want a solution, you gotta let go of your false beliefs, even if it crushes all your hopes.
>>545074996nein
>>545069908wait, you didn't even have a game before making that model? what the fuck is wrong with artfags
>>545075069Give some specific examples.
>>545075081Give me an actual answer m8
>>545074996If you're going that low poly anyway then I wouldn't bother modeling details that can be filled in with texturesProtip with low/mid poly 3d: If it doesn't add to the silhouette and you don't need it to deform for animation, detail it with your texture map instead
>>545074996just make it a texture
>>545074996Show the rest of the model, if it's low poly stylized it's probably good, especially after texturing the inside, if it doesn't match then we can see how it needs to be changed.Off the top I would say to just indent in inner section a bit to make it less pronounced.
>>545074429sometimes for customer support they will have an ESL worker use prerecorded messages to respond instead of talking directly. It's how we got this weird video https://youtu.be/22ZaKbxmEMA which happened before the AI boom pretty sure
>>545075175actually almost everybody who is confident about their game idea. they tend to ignore the scale of their project, the budget it'd require, the team size it'd require, the skills it requires. you could argue that believing you can make a game alone at all is a false belief and a complete denial of how real games are made. but all of those realities crush hopes and therefore people avoid those realities.i mean, ofc you can go to the end of the spectrum and believe nothing is possible. but i feel like tackling reality is very important. if your project depends on hope it's most likely gonna fail.e.g. if you can't make art and then lay out a plan how to make your game and it involves making hundreds of art assets. how do you justify working on that? hoping that an artist unicorn will fall out of the sky? hoping that you win the lottery and you suddenly can hire an artist?i feel like most devs wouldn't even make a plan and just ignore the reality that you need art at some point. like just not thinking about obvious pitfalls.
>>545075492I'm generally aiming for early PS2 level like Wander from SOTC
There's always more to learn.
i wonder. if i make a colony sim type of game. and have buildings per job. could i get away with having just one colonist model and walking/idle animation? they could just walk between buildings and the rest is abstracted away. so they don't even need to carry tools or weapons. ofc it'd be prettier with all of that, but at least you see colonists walking around at all.if i only animate mining, then i also gotta animate everything else like hunting, chopping, smithing, farming etc. and it becomes a massive scope again...
>>545075672It's important to handle the scope of your game I agree, but I don't understand why you think it's impossible for a solodev to make a game, even as a hobby, if they consistently work on it for a few years.The hope is obviously for a commercial success, but even if it isn't it's a good learning experience and motivator (personal cope).
>>545075672So in simpler words "estimation, especially when done by amateurs, is difficult". Yes, this is a well known phenomenon in software in general.
>>545075982looks like bs, show 1 example of this actually helping something in gamedev
How it feels to be working on a game knowing that three Double-A games in the same genre are about to be released:
>>545073247there are various solutions to thisuse the polish for a demo, early access, or crowd funding.Good games do NGMI if the game had zero visibility prelaunch. Steam does not market your game. Many good games probably are lost, but also I doubt it too, most of them probably develop small cult followings becoming at worst minor successes.The only way a good game could NGMI is if you put zero effort into the marketing but then also told no one about it, your friends and family didn't even know it existed. It just sits there and no one on earth ever heard of it
>>545076240I don't really understand the inputs, but I can see the appeal of the outputs.
>>545076115it depends on their plan. if they can show me their skills, their budget, their scope etc., then we can argue about that plan.but "i don't know how to make 3d models, but i want to make a dungeon crawler like diablo" is just dumb to me.but i feel like those type of people are very motivated. they'll build prototypes and all that stuff. and then suddenly just go silent and cancel their project. cause they ran into a problem they could have seen from the start: they can't do fucking 3d modeling.it's ok to say "i can't do it", when you can look at your plan and actually see that you really can't do it. but this can lead to desperation. cause it could mean you can't make any game, cause they all require more than you can make.or you have to make games you don't want to make, because they are the only viable ones inside your boundaries. but that can also cause desperation.i feel like real gamedevs are the ones who can handle this desperation and adjust to it. the others will forever release fancy screenshots and tech demos for likes and quitting project after project.
Gonna drop a big update soon...
>>545076617NGL this screenshot makes me feel like I need glasses.
>>545074760god i want that appeal inside my mouth>>545074990that wasn't a very funny joke, anonymous.
v_v i failed at stopping my friend from becoming a gamedev. i don't think he realizes how hard it truly is. or maybe i'm just projecting and i simply suck ass and he'll be fine. i'm hoping the latter.
>>545075672>almost everybody>they tend to>feel like most devsyou should just say most shit devs have shit skills and shit sense for their capability
>>545075069sunken cost fallacy, us humans have been suffering from it for thousands of years.
>>545076712I think is funny because after complaining so much that godot was just frustrating because is so low level, I am coding a framework to make my games using godot, just to have an optimal workflow by next year.It's like the joke is the shortest path is actually the one that goes againts the shortcuts.
I just finished setting up my window tiling environment and tuning it to my specific keybinds. This is going to be pure kino development.
>>545076775yes. but i think life is not just about developing skills, but utilizing skills. so gamedev might be viable if you can stop it with the delusions. you might be able to make an ascii dungeon crawler or a ui-based manager game, or a node-based game or whatever. or something like openfront.ioyet your unwillingness to think realistically keeps you stuck working on doomed projects.

>>545074996>>545075946I don't have any SOTC models but this is Chris from RE1 on the Gamecube.As you can see he actually has really good fidelity on the ear despite it being a 6th gen game.I thought maybe it was because it's a fixed camera angle game but no Leon in RE4 has similar levels of detail.
TRUTH N(ZUTT)KE:if your game isnt better than the best free games in your genre, genuinely give up you're game is basically indian at that point.just steal from the best free options lmao
>>545076614I see what you're saying,you're right but that's just very common nudev trap most people fall into.Nearly everyone's first game or second game (after a practice game) is an ambitious project they never finish because they never had a handle on the scope to begin with.It's a pretty natural process.For most people it should be a learning experience.Fool me once kind of thing, ultimately it's either beginners or genuine retards that can't yet grasp concepts you're saying.
>>545046775my penis is NOT that small
How do I emulate a SteamDeck? I don't have one to test my game on it.
>>545076691Yea, thanks God you can turn the shader off. I normally despise such shaders, but some people like them so I added it anyway.
>>545077507Just buy one. What are you, like poor or something? lmao
just because others (or yourself) expect you to do something, doesn't mean you are able to.
>>545077281>if your game isnt better than the best free games in your genrenot true especially with freemium games these days
>>545075946Ears in this era were textured
>>545077507It's just wait for them to go on sale again and get the cheapest model.They're surprisingly both underpowered and overpowered in a lot of unusual ways and you need to test with their specific hardware to optimize properly for them.
i need html/css/c# framework. just js replaced with c#.
>>545077920Depends on the game.
>>545077239Jeebus, I can't do this.
>>545077459proof?
>>545078330>I can't do something that typically only professionals with decades of experience do as a full-time professional jobNo shit. Basically what this anon was saying >>545076614
>>545076614Anyone who really wants to do gamedev will figure out a solution to those problems.Whether that is learning to model, make 2d games instead, hiring a modeler, etc.The people who run into a roadblock and decide to cancel their game are never going to make it in the first place.
>>545070527Mine is too but probably because we aren't all that close, I'm unemployed, and have no wife. We simply have very little in common and the few times I was nice and shared stuff about my game, he forgot most of it. It's not very enticing to talk about my game knowing that.
>>545078330Protip #2:Starting from scratch is for suckers. There are lots of free base meshes out there to start from. There are lots of free meshes in general. Remodel, reuse, retexture.
>>545054402Now the player can stand on them and hit them to start a fight. They can't deal damage to the player yet.

>>545079675I admire your ability to make consistent progress and I'm jealous of your talent.It looks like the pumpkins go straight for a bit and then are affected by gravity and start to arc down? It's a little weird because it seems like they'll just go straight like a projectile at first but unless I'm going crazy sometimes they arc down at the end. It seems like it would feel better if there was a constant arcing (like throwing them slightly upward to start) or if they just went straight the whole time.The enemies starting with a neutral face and then getting angry red eyes when attacking is is nice detail!

>>545076490To be honest I'm more worried about Capcom announcing a dino crisis remake while I'm working on something similar.I keep hearing rumors about it.The only thing that keeps me sane is that RE9 is coming out next year and it seems unlikely to me that they'll release it the same year.

peripeteia dev confirmed trans
>>545080060Atm I'm motivated to keep going, but it could all stop in the next couple of months. Trying to keep positive about it. For talent I wish you the best. Mine came from drawing my whole life and I still got a lot to learn.I had it before that the pumpkin would arc up a bit before going back down, but it would hit some of my lower solid platforms and break. So I had changed it to just go straight before going down. I can try to have the downward arc start earlier and ease out slower.The walking box is meant to be helpful so it's not too happy when the player attacks it.

how good are 4chan ads?
Wasteland bites as a concept has tons of potential and the demo is solid, but looking at the dev's blogposts I'm not entirely sure he's mentally stable enough to succeed at making the final game good. Or maybe I'm completely wrong and his mental instability is exactly why he will make the final game good.
>>5450855034chan has ads? (this is a answer to your question)
>>545085503The typical 4chan user is more tech savvy than the average rando and thus probably has an ad blocker.Basically what >>545085709 said.

>>545057141It's been a dead industry for a while, long before I got into game dev and music creation. I make more from steam soundtracks than from music streaming by far. If you want to make money with music, you have to sell physical albums and do physical shows with merch.With music streaming, Youtube and Amazon unlimited pays the most per stream. Places like Spotify unironically pay shit like $0.0004 for a full play. Youtube ads pays a penny per fully play if it's a song that's around 10 minutes.

Is the Buster Sword supposed to look like it's covered in fricken baby oil? I don't believe I connected the textures wrong.
>>545086891Show your material set upI'm guessing you're using a packed texture for roughness/metalness and forgot to turn off SRGB
my discord members keep pressing me for devlogs or make jokes about my progress being slow and it stresses me out!
>>545086891change the roughness
Brainstorming potential studio names is progress.
>>545086845>>545078960>>545077239I feel like that's not the fidelity I'm looking for though. A bit too realistic. I'm looking more for OG DMC
>>545087041No it's not packed, there's no alpha in any of the textures.They're not named the greatest. I'm assuming the black/white Body_Mr is the metallic and the lighter grey Body_Mg is the roughness. Also assuming the O is the ambient (O)cclusion>>545087107The roughness is plugged directly in. I think it's this shiny in-game, that's how it is I guess
>>545082318okay troon
>>545077239Based helpful anon
>>545087457Dante has fully modeled ears in DMC1 despite having shaggy hair over them. If you want to learn about the practices of the ps2 you should go download some ps2 models.https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/dmc1-dante-6c5e44d0ba704d26ba983b8281cc8693
>>545087989Funny you should mention that, that's literally what I'm looking at for reference
>>545087720Yeah your issue is your metalness, AO and roughness textures are reading as SRGB color instead of linear color. Disable SRGB in the texture settings for those textures. (roughness, metalness, AO - and anything you'd use as a mask in the future)
I'm using unity 6.0.43 and I'm going to install 6.0.61. Should I also install the android sdk etc? Or can I just copy those from previous install?

>>545088123I understand what you're saying, and that's definitely the case for Blender. In Blender textures are fugged up if they're not set as the correct color format, but in Unreal you plug it in and it "just works", I don't think that's the issue. I get where you're coming from but unless you mean something different than what I'm attempting here that's not it, in fact UE won't even allow me to change the color space without errors, it's expecting a standard color texture, and I've never heard of color spaces being too relevant to the unreal material workflow.I'm now convinced it's this shiny in the actual game, that's how the devs textured this asset. Thanks for the help though, anons who genuinely help are the reason these threads are worthwhile

When the fuck is AI UV unwrapping coming I hate this tedious bullshit
>>545089586It already did, are you retarded?
>>545089930Link?
>>545089586I've learned to love UV unwrapping, using "u" as a keyboard shortcut helps a lot, as does using "l" for linked sections. Once it became second nature it became a lot more enjoyable. It shouldn't take that long either...
I like the idea of the protagonist of my game kicking the hints in the loading screen if you're doing really well before saying>As if I need to hear this
>>545089586Sorry AI is only going to automate the fun stuff (sculpting) while leaving the tedious bullshit like retopologizing, unwrapping, and rigging
>>545089561Anon I've been using Unreal for 12 years now. I know what I'm talking about.You're getting errors because you need to change it to linear color in the material as well.
just one more...
>>545090484>I've been using Unreal for 12 years nowthat's not the flex you think it is lil bro
>>545089586You can auto unwrap everything nowadays and substance will usually deal with the seams.>muh texture/uv spaceif Call of Duty can be 200gb then my game can be 10gb, okay?
>>545090019>>545089586The following tools have AI powered unwrapping:Meshy AISloydRizomUV Virtual SpacesHeadus UVLayoutsUltimate Unwrap 3DCubeMinistry of Flat3DCoat
>>545089586
>>545090484>I've been Unreal for 12 years nowNot that anon but out of curiosity, if someone wanted to hire you for gamedev how much would you expect to be paid?
after 2 years..I finally understand 2D TileSets, TileMaps, isometry. I'm surprised there isn't more software out there for building TileSets. Anyone know how I could upscale these ruins? Or apply some soft of filtering to sharpen them? Maybe I should trace over them and just make new tiles entirely..
>>545090637It's not a flex. It's a "I'm trying to stop you from making the same mistakes I made when I started out". I didn't know about the SRGB issue for like a year and always wondered why there was a discrepancy in my models in Substance v Unreal 4.
>>545064998Based and 3D cube pilled. Fuck 2D fags
>>545090043>there are blender users who don't have all the keyboard shortcuts embedded in muscle memoryWhat the fuck do those people even do? Click menus?
>>545090484Ohhhhhh. Thanks anon!
>>545090781I should make a 3D game, just so I can use it as a tool to make assets for a 2D game. Lol.
luddite xisters we got too cocky
>>545090751Which one works best when unwrapping something like an industrial robot arm? Just want to avoid manually marking hundreds of seams
>>545091025is this real? what's the model?
>>545091104For an industrial robot arm, RizomUV Virtual Spaces is the most recommended tool. It offers a powerful blend of automatic unwrapping features specifically suited for hard-surface models, combined with the ability to make quick manual adjustments if necessary. If you are looking for a purely "one-click" solution and are willing to rely entirely on the software's AI, Ministry of Flat is an excellent alternative.
>>545090773I don't think anyone would hire me for anything because being a 1MA you become okay at everything but not great at anything. There are better programmers, designers and artists out there that you could hire instead.
>>545091105https://nimblefox.itch.io/arctic-warfare
>>545091419no the fucking AI adding shit into the engine on the fly you nigger
>>545091589Retard
>>545091589illiterate mongrel
>>545090781>Maybe I should trace over them and just make new tiles entirely.Yes. In my current project I've been making 3d models and rendering them from multiple angles in blender so I can have things like rotatable buildings... Though with the amount of effort and the results I got I'd have probably been better off hand drawing them. Though I could just use my renders as a base and touch them up in aseprite
>>545091273Fuck it's fake news. All the videos are manual as fuck. Fuck AI
>>545091741Kino. What's your material setup for rendering to pixel art?
>>545091676>>545091736cocksuckers
>>545091749I enjoy the disparity between AI fag nodev doomposters spamming whatever marketing material theyve fallen for lately, declaring that all creative endeavor is about to be automated... And the struggling yesdev trying desperately to actually find a way for AI to make his life easier and failing because 90% of AI is bullshit and hype perpetrated by people who produce nothing of value.
Uh oh...
>>545091741The snow on the objects like the cars, house and telephone poles looks really good. Also the variety of patterns to the road snow is neat, the feel random enough that it feels natural. Nice work anon.Like >>545092030 said, it'd be neat to hear more about how you're doing it.

Oh shit I'm stuck
Going to try and fix the weapon stuttering on screen when you walk today. It's a very old bug that I've tried to fix many times.
>>545093206z fighting
>>545090484>>545091005>>545093047makes you wonder how many unreal games come out looking really shiny by accident. maybe the entire 7th gen was an accident.
I'll make a game
>>545092030For pixelart renders I just use the blender compositor scale nodes to scale the render up and then down using nearest neighbour. And there's some other setting hidden in a menu somewhere which turns antialiasing off. There are better compositor setups but that one is simple and works well enough. I do a separate render for the snow with the rest of the house sent to black, then in the compositor channel the black into the alpha output so I can have a separate snow sprite to layer on top of the house, the house is rgb split with each channel being recolored via a shader in engine so the snow needs to be separate anyway. I touched up the snow with the jiggle brush in aseprite to break up the lines. >>545092490Thanks. The cars, fences and floor textures are hand drawn in aseprite, it's just the house and player which are 3d rendered. I might do a car too because I need them from many angles and I've already got a workflow set up for the houses so it'll be less work in theory (it won't be)

>>545093841>made up bullshitproof it's made up? I looked at the AI recommendations, it was a 400 dollar manual unwrapping tool.
Can I get some ideas to make it more "cohesive"I made all the graphics myself so I was hoping it would all look like it belongs together simply because I made it in my own style.>>545095272The muzzleflash is a placeholder btw, its just a 2D plane that instantly scales to 1,1,1 and then lerps to 0,0,0 in size, and a point/area light flashing at the muzzle as well.I thought it looked really good :(
>>545095534I like it, fuck the haters. Maybe just make your level a little lighter so it's not that grating and it's fine in my book.
>>5450953653d modeling is too easy
>>545095534the muzzleflash is fine, it's the lighting on the environment that's too much.I think more varied materials would bring the environments to life. Lighting is debatably more important than modeling

>>545102751Around 10 minutes or longer, just anything more than zero. People who play your game are worth 100 people who wishlist you and worth 1000 people liking a social media post. It's easy for people to like your game but look at it's price in the store and decide to pass on it. Demos are a way for people to play your game for free and decide they actually like it enough to buy it. This makes them infinitely more valuable than wishlists.

>>545103530The whole points of magics #1,2,3 being separated from magics #4,5,6 is that games with magics #1,2,3 can sell itself through visuals alone and therefore can go viral in social media. Social media does not work with magics #4,5,6. Customers have to play the game to get the appeal, and so a demo is required in that case.>>545103989>just anything more than zeroNo, you fucking retard. Demos need to be 20-30 minutes minimum. Anything less and the Steam algorithm will interpret it as people not enjoying your game and thus suppressing it. If you can hit 1 hour median playtime on your demo, you are 100% GMI and can easily farm tens of thousands of wishlists in your NextFest. Stop preaching Zuk when you don't even know the Zuk. Rewatch the lectures and take notes.

>>545098187Anon 4 years ago was 2021.
>>545104549And?
>>545104196could have some anticipation glow? moments before the explosion? I guess it's a short fuse though so might not be worth it
Bokube would've done fine if he released it like 14 years ago
>>545104826yep, you can remake bokube with frontier ai in a week now, probably spending way less than he spent all these years
>>545104514>can sell itself through visuals alone and therefore can go viral in social mediaSocial media might get you wishlists which might get you sales, but can't compare to the value of demos. Zuk has never made an exception to the rule that every game needs a demo. You are speaking heresies.
>>545104942risk of rain didn't have a demo
>>545104764In the game the anticipation is the bomb chanting "Alleluia", and then explodes, like in the worms games
>>545104942retard
I like this pixel art.
>>545104012If they like the setting they will play the demo no questions asked, and that's where you have to show them see look this game isn't garbage I actually tried. What is the menu like in your walking sim? What are the graphics and control options? Do you have achievements built in and if you do how does it feel to unlock them? Then they get warm fuzzies and realize okay this is a real game I will buy now.
>>545105143fuck off and die. Your game is ugly and has no reason to exist. You were born for no reason. Stop intruding on our lives with your failure
Why be on 4chan if seeing an anime girl in a video game makes you chimp out?

>>545101164Cruelty Squad is a bad example of "avant garde" aesthetics. It's aesthetic is "lets make this look like visual diarrhea as much as possible for a really basic theme" This had more meaning back in the time of Dada anyway but a lot of avant garde work tries to go for more than taking a shit in a toilet and passing it off as a deconstruction of aesthetics and society

>>545107168There is a mobile dev sphere? I've always wondered where they hang out if anywhere. Mobile gamedevs are the true arcane wizards of gamedev, doing their dark magic from caves, unable to approach or speak to 'real gamers'.

okay guys i got done with some stuff earlier today and realized something, my games feels unusually close to code complete. what i mean is, a lot of the code base for the gameplay loop unironically feels done. its almost as if the main system was the biggest thing to get out of the way. it took a few weeks after that was done to come to this realization but it feels like there is little left to do on that end. weird but im expecting this to still take months more time especially polish.>>545107775kek i know who you areany luck finding the thougheverbeit?

>>545112332Post the amount of money on everyone of those games
>>545111430You can't crack a certain number of reviews without getting promoted by steam, steam only has enough space and time to promote so many games every year, or at least they found a sweet spot that they weren't willing to deviate from. But they are changing discoverability now.
>>545112086we're in the shovelware era (now with AI power) of indie gamesthis is capitalisms fault btw

Mongoldev here, took a break from gamedev to focus on making money so I could hire some programmers to help me with Mongol. Working extra shifts is tiresome but it will pay off. No, I am not dead. Yes, I am still a schizo. No, I am not giving up. Moneys tight, bills and shit, saving money and might publish a book as a side gig to fund Mongol. I just got tired of Project hopping, and having no gameplay în my vija. I also removed mongol 2 from steam because it would flop and because I will try aiming for a publisher.

>>545112528Quality is subjective but value is a better word for games that people will want to buy and marketing amplifies value.

>>545112976you could have made the ip free for aggy members, I would have kept your legacy
There is no bottom to a coomer's hunger for slop. That's why its unfair to make real game devs compete with porn "games" on steam. Of the 400 or so games that reach 500+ reviews on steam 10% are porn. That's 40 devs that had the promotion valve would have given them stolen.
>>545112759And Cruelty Squad made over $6 million so why aren't you churning up some Godot slop right now?
>>545113007I have ultra maga conservative parents, but even them, yes including my mom, would be happy as fuck if I made loads making porn games.
>>545113054if it's only 10% then i don't give a fuck at all. but rather, what percent of porn games reach 500+ reviews is what i only care about next
The real key to success as a solo dev is demi-porn like atlyss, full porn limits you, totally unsexy is hard to sell
>>545113137>magayou don't have ultra conservative parents.
>>545113137any parent would. nobody gives a fuck how money is made when we're talking loads
>>545113206You are right that the ceiling is higher, but on the other hand, the game needs a much better quality-to-revenue ratio.
