Making a video game IS a peak male flex and complete subjugation of your potential. It's about mental fortitude, it's about forging a whole world by yourself in a majestic fusion of art and code and your time couldn't be possibly spent on anything more worthwhile.

The best way to enjoy something that you don't enjoy by nature (it feel like work) is by using it to solve problems.
I think coding is the best case for this because art doesn't actually solve any problems. But you can basically automate or just generally improve your life with a bit of mind numbing no fun bullshit called "programming". And that's pretty cool and you just get better at it. It's stort of like if wiping your ass your needed to win a game of chess, it's mundane and not fun, but you gotta clean your ass. So you'll get better at chess. Start imagining your life as if you are walking around with a dirty ass and you will improve your life.
As for art, for me it's all about the love of the outcome, I just love drawing cute girls. What can I say. But when it comes to finishing your game, it's all about wiping your ass basically. But if you enlist a robot to clean your ass for you, well expect the results that come with that risk.

Redesign the equipment scene to merge it with the store.

I want one of the girls in the game to be a saleswoman with Kirishika's personality (and design) but with an ultra-capitalist attitude.

Also include the button to start the level.

In the test scene, I'll add all the enemies to test them and prevent them from breaking due to code rewrites, etc.

A productive day.

Last one, before the showcase, submissions close Tuesday the 4th at 7pm Eastern:

Hey YOU, yes (you),
I’m not a dev, but I wanna shill YOUR game for FREE.

I've been wanting to give back to /agdg/ for a while now. I can’t code for shit, and besides buying every game that drops, the least I can do is show some stuff off.
So toss me your games, demos, or whatever you think deserves some spotlight. I’ll play or showcase ’em for around 30 minutes each, or playthrough the demo if it has one, whichever makes more sense.

I got enough demos and games sent in that I'm extending the showcase to TWO days now.

I'm planning to go live with the showcase next Wednesday, Nov 5th at 7pm EST and Friday, Nov 7th at 5pm EST at https://www.twitch.tv/nine_ten, so send me what you’ve got.
You can private message me through twitch or email me at twitch.nineten@gmail.com if you want.
Stuff in the pic isn't going to be everything shown, there's about 30 games so far, this is just what was sent to me when I made the picture.

I thought Cursemark was going to release today but then Clyde bamboozled me.

Not sure why he did it, the game is getting good attention. Also not sure how he got such a massive jump in art skill. Idk if he brought on an artist or what.

I lost my job almost two years ago and was unemployed. My computer broke down during that time too so I didn't make progress. Recently I got a new job, and got a new computer and it's been weeks now and I did install all the apps and shit, but I still didn't make progress. I'm starting to realize that I am the problem. I could have memorized the godot docs by heart while I was unemployed, I could have watch videos and written down my plans even if I couldn't test them. I could have drawn on pen and paper, I could have played the guitar that's been sitting in my room for 5 years, which has been touched less than my penis considering I touch that every day, A LOT.
My job wasn't in my way, I am in the way because of the type of retarded person I am.
So my advice is I don't think changing your life will help you make a game, because if you're the kind of person who can make a game you're already doing it. You're doing it day and night. You're doing it until you're exhausted and you can't do it anymore. There is no such thing as learning styles or other new age bullshit moms with college degrees made up to explain why their children are useless retards. If everyone succeeded perfectly our whole species would die. Being a failure loser retard is biologically normal. Some of us are meant to be filtered and simply die. Evolution is a callous bitch.

All problems with modern gaming come from a forced inflation of the gamer mass. If you reversed the inflation you would notice that traditional genres start coming back into style

The gaming industry for some reason literally stops being able to function once a certain threshold of critical consumer mass is reached. If you deflated the fake overinflated number of "gamers" you would see a deflation of game developers that's at least 10 times more severe. This all comes from a misunderstanding of the market and from completely wrong investor speculation

A scammer on the v3expo Discord is sending private messages offering a free year of "Claude Code" and "Comet Browser" for game development. They provide a referral link to the Comet Browser, which earns them $3. The scammer then instructs you to log in with your Google account on your mobile device to "sync" your data. This will give them access to your personal information, such as your Gmail and contacts, across multiple devices. I tried telling the owner of the Discord, but he blocked my private messages.

However the rest of your post was oddly correct. People avoid marketing their game and say it's because they're shy which is understandable but they don't want to consider that they actually don't believe in their own game. That's a hard pill to swallow.

it takes time. you need to be able to store monsters somewhere after you catch them and have monsters in your party to be able to fight so I had to make this system first, as well as a system to generate new monsters with random stats. it may not look impressive right now but this took a lot of work and will be the groundwork for the rest of the game.

So basically nothing has changed. You need to do better than asset flips. And you need follow chris Zukowski's advice.
I've seen so called indies with awful or dolar store assets and bad AI post their games and demos on steam like it's the next coming of jesus and claim that the market is saturated. Good games with good marketing behind them will get into popular upcoming and get a decent amount of sales/reviews.

I work daily but the progress is abysmal. Setting a timer doesn't work well the moment I hit a hard hurdle and just instantly give up. I'm so tired of it being a difficult step this frequently. I've been at this for years why is it so hard!!!! My current problem
>state machine for enemy
>make the attack mode
>acts completely wrong despite how little more was added to it
It detects the player, attacks, runs away, but then the next attack is launched from way outside the attack range despite none of the code altering said attack range. Later goes back to the attack state even when I'd force it to make it go close to the player first. I fucking hate making a state machine, I preferred if/else if statements for this. I can always copy and paste that code to each and enemy and make minor adjustments for unique ones.

The tech bubble grift is just algorithm engagement intentionally manufactured to scared normal investors out when the market truncates so insiders can get better positions after the truncation.
Insiders learned from dot com. Tell me did dot com technology fail or did individuals fail?
Only retards are falling for it.
The whole point of trump was just to reposition insider big money. It's not that deep everything is about money. The only reason jews practice moloch worship is because of money. The reason they like goys practicing their manufactured form of christianity is because Jesus thought money was grotesquely jewish and Jesus was the first antisemite. Even Hadrian didn't hate jews as much as Jesus did.
Also I'm already holding oil and energy so I hope AI uses more power.
I'm sorry cris but you genuinely don't know anything about economics. Watching youtube isn't sufficient enough to provide understanding.
We're transition from free market to speculative capitalism. If you don't own favorable positions you'll be a serf in the tech feudalism using VR to train my AI robot cunny wife how to jerk off my dick for 5 dollars an hour, you fucking whore slut guatemalan.

AI is a bubble because I can just use free open source Chinese models on my """totally not""" chinese gpu.
It's literally just going to be a background tool for finance firms, meanwhile large firms like google, microsoft, open AI, and anthropic will focus on integration with consumer goods, education bulk sale, and business bulk sale.
Google and microsoft are FAANG so they will live and they already have strong contracts in academia, consumer goods, and business bulk sale.
Anthropic will probably get bought out after the bubble deflates. Open AI will probably survive off custom AI services and military contracts. Their models are bloated and lobotomized, people will prefer chinese models that say the n word.

It's pretty digestible for normies like you (you fell for the normie manufactured media). You should invest in a PhD in media literacy.

Soon normie cucks will be begging to hop on remote AI robot training services where they will jerk me off using VR for 5 dollars an hour. All cause they cried bubble and told me I was just a stupid /pol/ conspiracy theorist. I don't even post on /pol/. I don't even vote. I'm not political at all, I just focus on money cause money is the god of mortal fools who murdered their god and cut him into piece they now call fiat. I won't eat the small rotting crumbs. If I own the corpse of god what does that make me in comparison? I was born into a world of normie cuck psychopaths who butchered their own god and salvation. I was born in this hell and I will be a king in hell rather than a slave in heaven. That's actually pretty much the plot of my game.
Wanna know why I'm telling you guys this all? because it won't matter, you were all born and bred slaves. I come from a stock of mercenaries and landowners. At the genetic level you cannot defy your masters, meanwhile I was born free.

He said he does it because it's funny but you can actually see him getting more upset and angry in the thread everytime then it becomes gore spamming. So it's obviously not about funny trolling it's just a classic tantrum. And where does it come from? It's because he's having a bad day or something. And when he comes to the thread hoping to bait everyone with the usual AI babble or something and sees everyone having a good time discussing actual gamedev stuff it makes him spiral into a meltie.

based on this graph how much should an indie game cost. Considering that a 6 piece tendie happy meal is 10 dollars and a full lunch meal is over 10 dollars.
Assume there is at minimum 2 hours of fun in the indie game.
considering beef is 5+ dollars per pounds (holy shit, also I found it for 4.99 last week and boughted 8 pounds and froze it) you could make a 1 pound burger for less than 10 dollars at home. I'm not very good at making nuggies at home though.
Personally I think the cruelty squad dev had the right idea... uh but 40 dollars was still crazy maybe should have just gone up to 15 or 20.

Real inflation, not the lie they spew on paper, is absolutely terrible when even frozen food is cheaper than fast food when you take into account quantity you get.

Honestly indie game's should go up in price and if they all did it unanimously, then it would in fact work out. However there's too many willing to undercut each other in hopes of getting some sort of advantage from it.

I was originally aiming for demoday thinking it'd be around christmas, but since it's 3 days away I might have to do the next one.

It's mostly done, just need some bugfixes and to finish the map, also it's not even snowing yet irl.

I also can't just put it up and forget about it because its multiplayer and I'll have to pay for a server, the aws ec2 which powers the server browser also costs money so I was going to just put it up for demoday

Thanks, but no p2p as I would have to figure out NAT hole punching, or everyone would have to go into their router and manually forward the ports. I'll probably release the dedicated server though so people could run your own if you wanted to.

Damn it's almost like you're operating in a market rather than a cartel... Retard.

Higher per-unit cost doesn't mean you make more money. People are less willing to spend money on games because they have less money to spend. Rent is astronomical, most people are living hand to mouth.

If games are cheap then people can pick up several that they find interesting. If games are expensive they have to pick and choose, or just wait for an inevitable sale, or just play something in their backlog.

This is why it was retarded for indies to cancel their launches to clear the way for silksong. It wasn't an $80 AAA release, people could have afforded to buy it and some other games.

Have you ever thought what you need to think is instead how to design your game so It appeals to some comunity on internet that actually makes them go, wow, I need to share this to my besties on discord?

No what (You) have to do is slip 100 dollars into a YouTuber's pocket so they'll talk about your game. If you don't mention payments or sponsorships at all, good chances are you're getting ghosted.

Games need demos but you're now opening up pandoras box when really you should have a demo playtested early in development. So you're right now going to embark on years of debugging your demo based on everyone's feedback. You will never finish your game if you do this. Do not make a demo for your decade long game, release the finished game and move on with your life and start another project. And on your next project get a demo out early.

If you ever want to be done with bokube and able to work on something else, you must finish this game and move on with your life.

You will listen to none of this because you are who you are, but I'm saying it so I can feel good about myself.

Oh yeah nevermind. I do remember now hearing about the demo a long time ago. All I know is anything he does right now short of publishing the game to steam and being done means more delays. But who knows maybe he will actually finish the game next year or the year after that. I just felt compelled to say something.

Not because it's not good (it will be as good as I can make it) but because it's somewhat slow and deliberate and isn't something that streamers would play.

I don't know about playtime, ideally 20+ hours. It's just past a 3-month prototype because of some very finicky mechanics that I've now implemented, and I'm now trying to decide whether to make the full game or not. It doesn't seem like a game anyone would excitedly tell their friends or followers about and although it's the game I want to make it seems foolhardy to invest so much time into something like that.
I feel that a gamedev should feel about his game the way Cuffbust dev felt about his. Ok his game flopped but it looks and feels like the kind of game made for viral success. I think at least the potential for that should be in a game before I sink years of my life into creating it.

I record my own playtesting with obs in case a bug happens. Action game bugs can be especially nasty to reproduce because of all the simultanious interactions. With the obs recording i at least have a visual record of the bug happening and i can slow the video down a bunch which gives me first ideas why the bug happens.
Then I print variable values to the screen while i chase the bug with play tests.
I use the profiler of my engine for performance issues.

It's a Stargazer. They meander about in the Sea of Green region in herds to look at the night sky; their eyes are sensitive to sunlight so they are a nocturnal race. Though most Frydarians fear their appearance, they are docile and herbivorous.

Start with Python, something that can’t crash your computer and you can iterate quickly on. As engine dev you will be porting code often. Your first task will be to port it to your first native build platform, using the Python build as an editor/tooling.

What gives you that impression. You're actually the only person here trying to force people to feel any kind of way about someone else getting 1k reviews.

One of the biggest disappointments for me. Cool art choices, but gameplay is dreadful. Cooking minigame doesn't gel with aerial traversal in any way, and most important thing you do – collecting ingredients is tedious and unsatisfying. Controls were not polished enough. I beat couple bosses, discovered distant islands and quit. Playing the game was frustrating.

So let's recap:
you make an Overwhelmingly Positive (1,290) game. it's about as good as possible, there's no higher score than overwhelmingly positive.
an celeb to makes a 1.6M views video with glowing praise about your game.
a teenager working at a fast food job still easily out earns you

And there we have it. There's no guarantees, it's all just luck. I don't disagree with any of your other points, you're correct there, but even with you doing everything correctly it's still down to luck.

Why are you trying to convince everyone else to give up just because you gave up, you convinced yourself to give up congratulations now you can move on from your life.

Except you can't. Because you're too jealous and addicted to the only emotion you are able to feel which is jealousy.

100% success rate if your game is good
the issue is most indies don't know what makes a game good
learn storytelling

>>545249636
story vs no story
learn storytelling
watch the first 10 minutes of this video and recite the reasons why the youtuber loves the game
if you can't do this you will not succeed

Ive become wise to the game of life lately. But lately its hard to snap out of it you know. Most people are starting to do so too. You have to pay attention to the trends and such. For exampld i told my friend in brazil that if he gets into vertical farming now hell be a manager in 5 years and by then everyone will fomo and try to get a job after the fact. He doesnt believe me.

It's not a story, retard. It's a hook. A pitch.
If a single sentence is all you see as a story then you don't understand storytelling at all. Read a book.

Garry's Mod and Minecraft aren't complex and intricately designed games. They can be platforms for them, but by themselves they are just basic sandboxes. Same concept applies here.

there are people who in reviews say my game is their favorite ever, but CIA didn't force Youtube to push them to reach 30M subs so their opinion doesn't matter..

There’s 8 billion people, nobody knows who the fuck you are even if you do sell 8,000,000 copies. I bought Stardew Valley on day 1, called in sick, played it for 60 hours, I wouldn’t who Eric Barone is if I kicked him in the nuts.
