>>548213692I can't stand him talking about almost anything. Like while talking to the Cultic developer he's saying how modern games use BSP editors instead of modular meshes to make their levels and that modular stuff is mostly an "unreal thing" and I just can't even.I think he probably knows enough about audio and art direction to get by but is woefully misinformed about everything else.

>>548213692>>548215114I used to be irked by that as well him always wanting the interview to circle back to himself and his project but hey, it takes a special kind of person to put their face on everything they do and I don't judge him, if he wasn't "the" Thomas Brush he probably wouldn't be as successful and that requires a certain level of narcissism. And at the end of the day, I like that there are dev "personalities". As it goes his videos lately are excellent comfort food for a dev who is witnessing the same things he's right in the middle of like the sea change with the golden age and devs all considering doing smaller projects, which he talks about quite well in the first few minutes of his recent Edmund interview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qXGRLJ-w1Q

>>548216137>>548216609Goofing off is kino
NIIIIIIGGGGGERS
>>548217652>Cosmic Call - bombed; never recoveringCosmic call dev is about to make it big with his new game though, the real lesson is that flopping once, twice or thrice doesn't matter. You can always make a new game.
>>548218279I finished and shipped games too, but unlike them at least I didn't flop and shart myself
>>548218557whats his new game
if anybody is gonna suffer from glitch-free error-free 3D models with animations/texture made from AI, then it's big corpos who can win because they have 100 million dollars to hire a an army of artists.if i, as a solodev, can make my dream game by just prompting 3D models/animations/textures, then i'll be able to make things that only rich investors were able to do before.yes, i can learn to make art myself, but even if i become a pro, i'd still have to spend like 30 years to finish all those models needed for an interesting game that actually has content.just like automation enabled poor people to eat without having to become nobility.
>>548218557isn't making a streamerbait slop game kind of an admission of defeat? Bottom of the barrel last resort kind of thing? didn't the dev say recently he's burning out hard the last few months. He'll be lucky to finish this year with his life intact
>>548218471
>>548218557how the fuck did cc do that bad anyway? before i left from here and took a break a few years ago, cc was one of my top 3 favorite games from here in development? i was genuinely sure that it would do well?
>>548218790>crabbing this hardCUUUCK
>>548218980because you're retarded and don't understand that some genres are oversaturated and you can't get by with a low-effort boring unfun copycat
>>548219097you are actually retarded, holy shit
>>548217951He's like all of us who pretend we're like Bocchi
I haven't made a male 3D model in a long time, only little girls or creatures. Maybe I should make one based on myself...
>>548218790dev is in university, its understandable to be on fire
>>548217652Cosmic Call I used to think had some potential, but after the steam review guesser game I realized that the game's artstyle gives it a very strong double-digit review aura which is probably impossible to overcome>>548217951He was still part of a community of people who appreciated his intellectual contributions
>>548219138Prove me wrong (you can't)
>>548219145Nope. Troons aren't introverted. Not enough grey matter
>>548217652Reminder there are multiple people like this who have spent their life on 4chan seething about every single indie game.
>>548216137>not hitting her drum backcuck behavior tbqh
>>548219168kanna...
>>548219247Nope.
>>548217652where is bokube
>>548219397I wouldn't hit her drum back , because I am loyal to my wife.
>>548219270>n-no the troons aren't like me they are low IQ trust meHuge cope. When are you going to stop obsessing and finally transition?
>>548218332Yeah I can see but I think agdg as an OP does need some work. The resources is kinda weird and centralized in one hackmd. I don't think agdg-steam.netlify.app is a resource so I'm not sure.
>>548219397that would be grounds for a rape accusation
there is some deep frustration about wanting to gamedev. there is so much competition, it has become similar to wanting to own a house. year by year the goalpost moves and your dream becomes more expensive.or another example is esports. when the scene is small, then wanting to become a pro is easier, but as it grows, wanting to become the best gets harder and harder.and soon your goal will eat you. you end up playing league of legends for 14 hours a day, yet still not reach the top.ultimately a goal that is too hard might even kill you at some point, because it'll burn you out.
>>548218790his wastelands game is worse than cosmic call, you're daft
>>548219532>mfw this is how hard troons need to cope with their existence
>>548219746it captures that comfy+dready+lighthearted+satirical vibe that can and will sell
>>548219727but with esports retard the prize money has increased so it all scales equally. so of course there will be more competition to reach the top
>>548219270Maybe one day you will obtain a real personality
>>548217652the inner circle has crumbled
>>548219746Did you just accidentally reply to yourself? lol
>ctesiphon flopped they all say>reviews increasing daily
>>548220158>1 review per daySTOP THE COUNT
>>548219445bokube isn't agdg anymore bro. ;_;
>>548219727Globalization kills everything
>>548218557I think Bites is a winner, he just needs to stop blogposting and being moody and maybe cut the scope massively and just publish it asap. But someone implied he was very doomy during Comic too? So maybe this is just part of his process.
>>548220158this would be encouraging if it was a long game that would take a while for the initial buyers to get through and review.But it's a 5 hour game, anyone who bought it day 1 excited to play has finished it by now. It should have a healthy review count by now if it was going to take off but it's just a double digit review game and that's all it is.
this thread lost so many gamedevs over the years and it'll keep losing more devs without harsh moderation. the amount of offtopic is over 95% now. kinda sad that now only reddit is left as an option for gamedev talk.
>>548220309Bokube is the face of agdg.
>>548218557>>548218734>>548220417retards still not realizing that this is the exact same NPC shit that people were spamming about cosmic call before it released and we all saw that the emperor has no clothes
Uh oh introverted meltie
>>548220521Yeah but bokudev said he won't post anymore.
>>548220549lol, you're the retard that got dumped on earlier, just relax retard ;)
>>548220510Reddit and the BiteMe discord!
>tranny vagina spammer>gore spammer>joshuathe only salvation is that i don't see flygoon as much
Is there any way to reorder these? The new one went to the top and fucked up all the animation counter values in my game.
>>548220548cosmic call is one of the best games to come out of here, you're completely retarded. the entire general assumed it would do well, and then after the fact, special ed retards come out of the woodwork and act like they thought it would flop all along, okay, sure you did, clinical retard
>>548220017Troonoids don't belong in male spaces like agdg
>>548220831then what are you doing here?
>>548220819I was warning everyone about this every single demo day. The game always looked boring and I kept repeating that every time. Retards like you with zero memory retention always try to rewrite history but I always remember. The game was a boring piece of shit that everyone was streaming non-stop because it's good contentslop for the ADHD zoomers streaming demos and watching demo streams. Have some shame and shut the fuck up
>Everyone likes balloon popping more than shooting enemies in Twisted Tower>Thomas takes this as a sign he needs to add more balloon to pop instead of fixing the core shooting mechanics
>>548220680weird that he disappears and then these other extremely prolific spammers who are also very adept at ban evading show up. Really crinkles the old thinkle
>>548221106Hey, whatever's easier!
>>548220903Telling you troonoids to go away
>>548220510every other thread you're going on about the state of the thread, just go fucking back to ye ol' reddit if it irks you that much, sharon. holy fuck, literal woman
>>548221407there's no game development going on here
>>548220548>the emperor has no clothesThings peasants say. Literally seething so hard about someone having a videogame that you think they are snobby and acting like royalty or something. Insecure pissant.
i always see devs talking about money, i rarely see them talking about how to make a good game and i never see them talking how to make a meaningful game.this horde of slop devs is more obsessed with money than ubisoft/ea and at the same time also more soulless than AAA in every way.
>>548221535Do you have a game? You don't have to post it. Just answer truthfully
>>548220903retarded tranny nigger
>>548220680>>548221129Anything is better than seeing that diaper lizard 40 times a day.
>>548221535Well it's more because everyone thinks they can make a good game even with 0 evidence to back that up.The good game part is inherent to game development whereas the make money part isn't.
>>548221535>a meaningful gameYou just gave me the ick friend.
>>548221842No need to announce your homosexuality so openly
I found a way to use my low poly pixel art models, and use them directly with a pixel art shader, rather than doing the pixelover conversion. :D
The lions may grow weak and hungry,but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.Psalm 34:10
>>548221535Meaningful games don't sell. You learn to make a good game through practice, i.e. just like make game. There is no "one trick". You're searching for a shortcut that does not exist.
For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”Romans 1:17
The lips of fools bring them strife,and their mouths invite a beating.Proverbs 18:6
when did this thread start to attract so many trolls and disgusting posters? i can browse all sorts of threads on /vg/ and they're just fine, but somehow gamedev seems to attract really strange people?even /lolg/ doesn't have that, even though you'd think a popular game like that would attract more trolls.

>>548222686are you mad at the bible quotes anon? 1 or 2 without the images would be based, but he's overdoing it and taking too much space.
>>548222686people get personally butthurt due to how much effort is required to succeed in gamedev. /agdg/ has always had bad actors but now we have like 5 retards spamming with AI bots.

>>548222701What was that in the corner O_o do you have permission to use that from nuestro parce? Good progress though.
i still havent written a single line of game code. i've been too obsessed with setting up my Unity project professionally from the ground up, multithreading ready, addressables, project layout, assembly definitions, single entry point, addler, bepinex for full modding support, other software architecture crap
>>548223429are they bypassing the captcha? There's no way we have actual autists sitting in here copying and pasting AI outputs right.
>>548223952and separating "framework code" from "game code" so that the framework can be used for more games in the future
>>548223834maybe that's actually cris's new game
>>548222701>anon post progress>drown by ai faggot having a meltiealso anon that looks like it has no gameplay yet, stop caring about animations and models and make the core gameplay loopalso wtf is that girl in the corner
>>548224152>he doesn't know

fygoon tried to stop this
>>548224435How can you add the agdg logo in the corner pretending like it's a part of the community when you're the one shitting it up.
>>548224675here you go

>>548222686I've said it before, it's because agdg has seen numerous millionaires over the years and psychopaths and subhumans want to be around/influence anyone who could potentially succeed even a little. If you have a videogame and it could feasibly make you $10,000 let alone $50,000 or more, someone is seething about it and wants to disrupt you. It's that simple. It's subhuman "people" throwing tantrums in an environment where they can only dream of being one of the many gamedevs who reach the podium.
>>548222701ZAMN who THAT

>>548220158
>>548226635>strawmanyou lost bigly
I raped Ctesiphon
>>548221535Yeah because valve ruined indie games by forcing devs of completely different genres to compete with each other which caused a race to the bottom.
>>548226918Winners win. Losers lose. My genres > Your genres.
>>548221535Because I already know what sells. I just need skill. I can't make my dream games to the quality they are in the mind palace without tons of time or money. Easy, I churn out slop, I get rich, I get to make my dream games without having to wage ever again.
Game development?
>>548222701Nice Mixamo animations
>>548227380This. No one with above average IQ is capable of deluding themselves into believing that they can truly make their "dream game" as their first game. You'd have to be delusional about your own capabilities and be delusional about how much time and effort goes into making a good game, both of which requires extremely low IQ.
>>548227389i look like this

I find funny how the /biz/ side of agdg is only a recent phenomena, of maybe 2-3 years.I still remember agdg goal was simply to make a fun game, or being a huge popular hit like undertale or flappy bird.But for more than the first 10 years of this general, we were more concerned about charlotte panties and getting fan art than optimizing steam as a bussiness.
>>548226615How are trannies even allowed?
>>548226635
>>548228238
>>548226918>forcing devs of completely different genres to compete with each otherHow so? Do you think the tag system really has no significance?
>>548227913>You'd have to be delusional about your own capabilities and be delusional about how much time and effort goes into making a good game,Well people are.People are delusional anon. How much of a robot do you have to be to not understand that. Most people walk around thinking they can win fights, despite never having fought before. Communists and other ideologies walk around thinking they can eradicate all inequality and oppression in the world while at the same time they can't even eradicate the dirty dishes in their sink. There are highly intelligent and technically proficient men who are so deluded that they wholeheartedly beleive that they are in fact women. It's very normal to be deluded into thinking something is easier than it is, humility is not the same as intelligence . Also there is something to be said for trying to do something because you thought it would be easy, you might get further than some expect
>>548228428>I find funny how the /biz/ side of agdg is only a recent phenomena, of maybe 2-3 yearsIt's the best thing that could possibly happen. The more gamedevs focusing on actually making the thing and not getting stuck in the trap of posting progress for eternity the better. Bokube is the most startling example of this. Someone with a forevergame who simply cannot bring themselves to finish it year after year but posts the game on the internet 5,000 times every year. He doesn't need the money, he isn't serious about being professional. He is the eternal hobby dev.

>>548229758joshua sisters...
how to fix this?
>>548230469stop making a ps1 game
>>548228848No. It's the worst thing that could happen.Any non-retard would look at the odds of making decent money with gamedev and just go do something else. We end up with the no-hoppers, the deluded egotists, the desperate retards who think they can pick up a game engine, make some anime trash game and then rake in millions of dollars and thereby make up for all their terrible life decisions. We get all the thirdworlders who can just make shit and be happy with it because their threshold for success is far lower, $10k can buy a lot of rice of you live in a pile of electronic waste in Bangladesh.Doing gamedev because you enjoy it is at least a genuine expression of creativity. Doing it because you might make a nominal amount of money is retarded.
>>548230980I started gamedev because I keep seeing dogshit slop make a lot of moneythen I realized I actually enjoy it though and suffer none of the issues the fags in this thread complain aboutstill not gonna make slop though my game is and will continue to be sick

>>548231664>xhe is projecting again
>>548231918don't try to turn the tables
>>548232478>don't try to turn the tables
>>548230980This is low-skill midwit cope. Game development is one of the best industries, if not THE best industry to break into as a small business startup, assuming skill is not going to be an issue. It is one of the few technical skill based meritocracies left in the world, and it is one of the few industries where a small indie dev can scale up and reach a full international market.The inherent problem with meritocracies is that low-skill midwits like you cannot compete. Actual production work on a high-quality video game is not enjoyable. It's is long, tedious, and grueling hard work that you shouldn't expect anyone to go through without monetary reward. Most non-retards can only "enjoy" gamedev if while they're still learning, experimenting, and/or prototyping. Alternatively, you have to be extremely low-IQ and delude yourself that your kenyan helicopter childlike doodles are any good, because anyone with sufficiently high-IQ understands that grown ass adults should not expect to be lauded for making low-quality garbage. You are past the age where "a genuine expression of creativity" alone deserves any praise. Grow up.TL;DR skill issue

>the aishitters are clashing with eachother againAn epic battle between two depraved monsters. Their common addiction to AI is not enough to keep these two from turning on eachother as they both want to be seen as gamedevs here and have their own shitty projects to try and prove it once they disagree on something it's over. A fight for dominance is inevitable.

>A second negative review has hit ctesiphon
I was in these threads last year and as summer ended the threads got progressively worse. I initially got good advice on some questions and good critique on my efforts, it got my foot in the door with the engine I chose and helped me complete my first two projects. Eventually that stopped. It became popularity contests, AI shitflinging both pro and anti and schizophrenic ramblings. I miss what it used to be. I see, reading the thread, that whatever good I found before has still not returned. God help you all, my search for the ones who used to be here continues.

>>548138617Is the last thread fully deleted?
why do you celebrate someone's effort failing?
>>548235943ctesiphon is yesterday news, today we are discussing joshua's preferences in ai little boys
>>548236237I'm evil
>>548236237they were praying for mine for years
>>548236291we know joshua
>>548235605I posted about this last thread, just take a quick glance and if all you hear is the monkeys howling at eachother with 5 word posts, move on. No need to comment about it, it won't change anything.
>>548236387Joshua is in jail, I'm Jerry.
I'm gonna redo a lot of the UI shortly. What other changes could I do in that time to make this shit juicier?
>>548236237People on here mocked me when I suggested steam was going to shit after my game flopped. No its not the market, my game was just shit and theirs were obviously better. The overwhelming majority of anons since then have released flops.
>>548236551post the source code and i'll fix it
>>548236551learn some humility and humanity and stop treating your fellow devs like commodities
>>548236237It's simply a case of, "I told you so." The dev chose to ignore my feedback at his own peril.
>>548236581That's pretty understandable, actually. Ok.
>>548236698retard
>>548236237Because they want to attack the very idea of indie game development itself. Anyone who actually makes a game and sells it on steam is the enemy to them. They call everyone involved a steamie, the players and the devs then mock both sides, but it's not about steam it's jealousy. Murderous jealousy for one who has found favor with God. It's in their blood.
>>548236237It was fun to watch Cuffbust crash and burn.I don't find any joy in Ctesiphon failing though I'm also not surprised about it.It's a mishmash of visual styles and looks kind of bland.
>>548236681>someone didn't do everything I told them to do therefore I am pleased to see them failPsychotic. There's no failure here by the way CTESIPHON is a finished game launched on steam. The dev made a game.
>>548237025You didn't defend my game with that argument when it was its turn
I wanted Ctesiphon to succeed because its an aggydev, but he didn't fix the yellow card issue I had despite days begging for a fix, so maybe it was deserved.
>>548236681what was your feedback?
>>548236634if not juicy: juice++
>>548237208See >>548237206
>>548237206What was the yellow card issue?If it was something in the gameplay then I doubt it would've made a difference.This isn't a game that was bought and refunded a ton. It was a game that nobody looked at in the first place.Which means the marketing is the issue.
I think a simpler version of my 256 harem girl is just better as an interactive PDF, where you can sort of see each girl, her design, her short story and more or less like the town map.And then have a sort of CGI gallery where you can see each one naked and fucked by the MC, but the game procedurally generating each CGI pictures, from a set of like white base layers, which are colored using shaders.And have a buttom to randomized which picture you see with a timer to change each picture.
Reminder 0 modern devs ever managed to make a success after a flop, if you flop once you are done for.
>>548237025People "make games" and release them all the time. In fact, 100 games release on Steam alone EACH DAY.>>548237208Nothing extraordinary. Mainly just the usually "stop fucking around with enginedev and just ship already" that applie. It's a game that he could've made in less than a year in GZDoom. His priorities with the project were completely out of order. No one cares if you write your own system for rendering reflections or glow. They care about level design and narrative construction.
>>548237695Here's where I give you a bunch of examples and you go >those aren't modern devsAnd we argue about the definition of modern dev for the next 300 posts.
>>548237201I don't even recall the last time an agdg game was released. Also I have never been hungup on telling devs what to do because I have my own games sorry.
>>548237803Modern dev = past 2 years, there you go
>>548237762>*Mainly just the usual "stop fucking around with enginedev and just ship already" that applies to most devs with multi-year projects.
>>548237695>Reminder [bait]Real lonelyposting hours I see.
>>548237925So you want someone to have released 2 games in the last 2 years and for one of them to have been a flop and one of them to have been a success?Bud most indie developers take 3-5 years to make a game.
>>548237987Not an argument.>>548238032I accept your concession.
Working on my game activates my caveman brain and gives me the same high as leveling up in an RPG or building a camp in a survival game. It's satisfying seeing things improve every day.No it's not a new game I've been working on it for 6 years.
>>548237762>No one cares if you write your own system for rendering reflections or glow.True.>They care about level design and narrative construction.No they don't.

Game where you start playing a normal horror game, but then die and then get the game over screen but it was actually you playing VR all along, and then the real horror game starts when someone knocks on your door.
>>548238615Playing someone's hobby project game for free is a gift of your time. If the game isn't fun enough to repay the favor? Justified.
>>548238615>>548238719just revoke the key, that's what i would do
>>548238697I think I've seen a game like this, but you're playing the game on the TV in your living room

>>548238306Gotem. With an eceleb even. This will cause a meltie.
>>548239835right? imagine having a functional family instead of a bunch of mentally ill people
>>548239343The fundamental problem is that retards like you undertake multi-year projects under the assumption that much of that time is spent learning the skills necessary to complete the project. That implies that the original game concept that you continue to work on is designed by a loser nodev without the necessary skills. You need to come to terms with the fact that your current game idea is shit. Assuming you learned plenty of skills in the process of development, then your time wasn't wasted. It's time to let go and move onto something better: a game idea conceived by the more skilled and experienced developer that you are today.
>>548238476blast programming the guy who made arsenal demon here went from 15 reviews to almost 600 with his latest game that released this month
>>548240048>drop your project because you've improved since you came up wit hitNobody would ever finish anything if they thought like you do.
>>548240140Skilled developers would. Not everyone starts gamedev as an uneducated loser. In fact, most successful devs go through a non-trivial amount of formal/structured education.
>600 reviews is considered made it for the simpletons herelol
>>548240048>That implies that the original game concept that you continue to work on isalready market tested because I'm not retarded like you
>>548240463600 reviews at $39.99 a pop is 4 million in sales Do the math
>>548240463600 reviews on a $10 game that took a year to make is around $150k net (300k gross), which is about what I'd be making at a tech job, meaning I managed to turn solo indie game dev into a sustainable career. i.e. I made it.

Flopping is always a good thing. If your game flops, it means it's bad, and if a game is bad, you should be happy that no one sees your embarrassment.
When are we getting a good open source replacement for blender?
>>548240759yeah but you will need to keep doing that for the rest of you life, so 50-60 times and you'll need to be successful at least 30% of the time.

>>548243674Watching you get legitimately insulted everytime your slop is acknowledged never stops being funny.

>>548244372You didn't boughted my game, so no progress
>>548244165Now that the dust has settled, what went wrong?
>>548242638>you'll need to be successful at least 30% of the time.nodev detected, you have to be successful literally 100% of the time. Once you no longer have it, it's over. Flopping doesn't just happen for "no reason", unlike what the literal room temperature IQ trannoids here like to tell each other. If you have a flop, it's over. You will NEVER make a game that doesn't flop. Flopping fundamentally says something about the creator- that they cannot and will never be able to make a game.

>>548244834There's a market for loli boomer shooters? I don't get it.
>waa waa waa why did my shitty "game" flopBecause you didn't embrace AI. It's literally that simple. The gamers have spoken, and they overwhelmingly want more AI in their games. AI is literally anti-woke, based, and for straight white conservatives, of course the trannies here won't like it KEK!

Poor thing. If it's any consolation for you, you were never going to succeed because you're dysgenic. Stop blaming yourself.

thanks to the latest technology that lets you simply tell your computer how to make your game, a lot of idea guys will find out their lack of programming and art skills was never their main problem and that their ideas weren't any good to begin with.meanwhile my main competitive advantage (being a competent programmer and a passable 3D artist) that let me do this for a living is all but erased now.basically all these advances we're experiencing will only benefit the gamers and the top 1% who know what gamers want, and that's not me or (You)

What Steam tag's revenue is most heavily skewed towards the top earner? For example, ~50% of the revenue of ALL "Creature Collector" games comes from Palworld alone. Can you think of another game that dominates a genre like that?

>>548251565your level design fucking suckseven without any gameplay, or without critisizing the art, just the level geometry sucks.1. doesn't represent anything IRL. Maybe a hedge maze? or an ant in a pile of rocks? Are the boxes supposed to be buildings with interiors? I can't tell what's supposed to be outside or inside.2. uninteresting geometry. no key landmarks. No areas with a different feel. A good game can make and area be "claustriphobic" or "exposed" or "safe" or "full of opportunity" just with geomoetry3. details suck. some corners are filled in, some aren't. blocks are misaligned from grid.4. You felt the need to completely fill out the entire rectangle, where everywhere is about as easy to get from any other location. There are no secret areas. There are no tricky-to-get-to, but advantageous positions. There are no low-resistance common travel paths.

Okay, I changed the pose and managed to correctly import all of the bow bones in Unity. That's it for today, this weekend I will try finish the aiming system and the shooting animations.
wtf I scratched my leg against some surface a month or two ago, didn't even hurt until I looked and saw some blood. now it's a scar. not like I care since I'm a guy but this never happened to me before.

>>548254076Give the customers what they want.
>>548254076most gamedev communities are populated with failed artists lol. Not to sound like the AI fag but that's why they get so upset over AI. This place has a long history of shaming anyone who uses art assets as an "asset flipper" when most successful indie games use art assets because... why wouldn't you?
>>548253508Thanks, I changed the position of the arrow and now it looks better.
>>548232527Good goy Steamie, keep believing that gamedev is a meritocracy lmao
>>548251565talk more about what you're doing, you clearly have no problem with that, so do it morebe careful with the music, generally it's not important, so you can use a very low volume for it, devlogs are meant to hear someone talking all the timeand as >>548251751 said, be aware that there's a mentally ill crab heregood luck with your channel!
>>548236773I'm the one posting about steamies and I don't hate Ctesiphon though. In fact I hate that games like that don't succeed anymore. For me it is all about Steam and how much worse it has gotten, and I've always hated gamers anyway.
>>548254547>t. no merit>>548254658>i wish short, buggy, poorly designed games would succeed more
>>548254864>i wish short, buggy, poorly designed games would succeed moreWish granted
>>548254076>Look on steam new and trendingWhy? Let other people like Zukowski do that. You look at it and just hurt yourself and come up with this list of 20 things you saw that bother you lmaoI ain't got time for that. Got dev to do.
What's up with dev's who come off like its a "hobby" but then making clickbait titled videos?>>548254076>>Descriptions that mention other games while having virtually no resemblance to those gamesWhen I see that I assume they're usually tagging their game for more attention.
I just woke up guys.
>>548255106>Storage Hunter Simulator>Average playtime: 28.1h>Ctesiphon>Average playtime: 3.3h
>>548255106>1000+ reviewshow? it doesnt even look fun.
>>548255295I'm not kidding. Gamers are fucking retards and people here need to stop treating them like they are human beings that care about quality.
>>548255293>average playtime tardOh no no no
>>548255295>Play as one of the bidders for abandoned warehouses and uncover hidden treasures! Storage Hunter is a garage auction simulation game. Bid, win, and sell for profit! Become the king of storage auction. That sounds fun as fuck. You have no taste.
>>548255339>Gamers are fucking retards and people here need to stop treating them like they are human beings that care about quality.I never did. In fact I was one of the few posters that was doing this way earlier than anyone here, warning everyone how retarded they are. But /agdg/ just doesn't fucking listen.
>>548255403>That sounds fun as fuck.
>>548254076>Look at what /agdg/ says is goodvery very poorly made clone of an existing game, but with anime girls (guaranteed dislike by normies)?
>what agdg says is goodThere is no consensus on that except if you count demoday maybe there are a handful of favorites but it's not easy to decipher. agdg is full of too many schizos and contrarians. If you think there's some kind of groupthink decisions here you're tripping.

He refunded my game yet left a positive review.Why did he do that?
>accept copy for free>leave bad review>refund>ask for another key
>>548256201He likes the idea of your game, but doesn't like the actual game itself.
>>548256684How does that make sense? He didn't even finish the game.
BiteMe's latest video just going over capsule arts again. If your capsule art is bad, you aren't taking your game seriously and so neither will anyone else. Which is a hard pill to swallow because you can spend ages on your game but in truth maybe you really do the bare minimum on the capsule art, but you think that's not a big deal subconsciously because you care about your game and expect others to know that but all they see is a bad game. Bad capsule? Bad game. Good capsule? Maybe it's worth a look. This is where we are being filtered within 0.1 seconds by potential players.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ua-9GJq9zMQ
>>548256201Maybe he thinks the review will help but doesn't want to pay. it still helps a bit, if users believe the review despite the refund telling "another" story. (I know steam doesn't count it)
>>548256863He found the premise (the pure idea) of the game appealing, and he enjoyed simulating the fantasy presented within his own mind. The actually game itself (the computer software version of it) was not fun, but he decided to write a review for just the premise. I'm sorry if your aphantasia prevents you from understanding this concept.
>>548257151But my game isn't very fantastical.
>>548257217Neither is going to your mom's house to fix her plumbing.
Do any other jews here get a kick out of all the goyim thinking they can actually release a game on steam in 2025? Really, genuinely, makes me kek.
>>548255918ok hot shot, I challenge you to buy it then. Show us how fun it is. Write a positive review if you enjoy it that much or write negative if you're disappointed.
https://youtu.be/QDfdgH1ZIaw&t=1619>Chinese devs made a section of the game about Japanese wasps showing up and murdering everyone Holy shit lol
>>548257315>schizo tard rambling out of nowhereI accept your concession
>>548257315>a game about a plumber going to different people's homes and doing everyday grueling plumber job, getting paid, getting better equipment and growing his enterprise. Do your job good enough and you'll have a chance to get something better than a monetary compensation...
>>548256989>relying on Steam for promotion and visibilityThere's your major issue. Deltarune and Undertale both have shit art capsules, if not for Toby Fox's fanbase that he had beforehand, these games would've been gigaflops.
>>54825748430:35 he says they wanted to make the next Alice a mega pulpy violent slasher with a sexy Alice.
>>548257791Remind me when Undertale was released?
>>548257791Having a community to play your game is important but even if you have a fan who is also a fan of someone elses game, and they look at your capsule art and the others from their own library they are still influenced when deciding what to play. This affects peoples willingness to leave positive reviews. So no "just be Toby Fox" isn't an adequate argument. Have good capsule art or prepare to flop.
>>5482578672015. It's exactly my point though. Things on Steam are much worse today, there's even less reason to play the gabencunt mindgames anymore. You don't really need to care about the Steam store assets that much, since the brunt of your promotion and marketing should be outside of Steam. Even Valve says as much.Btw Deltarune released on Steam last year I think. For reference.
>>548257791
>>548257996The library doesn't use capsule art, retard. It uses the box art.The capsules are the tiny rectangular images on the store page and on the lists. That nobody gives a shit about if we look at successful games.
>>548258086>misses the point of my postYou're not the brightest bulb on stage, are you?
>>548258109>arguing for the sake of arguing>getting upset and swearingNight night brainlet.
>>548258212I accept your concession.
Even as recent as 2024 this general used to make fun of retards trying to shill their youtube grifters, with Marnix being a particular lolcow.Now we have retards unironically discussing them with no hesitation. How did it come to this?
>>548258021>It's exactly my point though.No it's not. Stop blowing smoke at everyone you nonce.
When is something going to be done about the fake cris situation?
>>548240759Nta but that's not made it tier at all. You're literally on the edge and need to crank out a game once a year and have all 100k profit come in the same day as you released. You literally need more runway that based on your job standards.
I'm so glad I'm studying a decompiled game now. I'm absorbing the knowledge of 10 good tutorials in a tenth of the time. There's no doubt about it, once you can make shit-mid games the best way to level your skills is source code.
Imagine how redpilling it was for valve when they found out shitty hats in tf2 were pulling more money than entire games like l4d. They learned that gamers are indeed cattle that will pay more for virtual trinkets than original games. No wonder they stopped giving a shit about video games because gamers don't give a shit about video games.
>>548258472unifronically Fygoon tried to warn us about this but we didn't listen.
>>548244720Cute
>>548258472the more the nodevs got foothold, the more the yesdevs left. it all starts with encouraging and giving attention to latinx retard. it's (You)r fault.
>>548258806why are you so obsessed with him?
>>548258806I never replied to cristobal though.
>>548258907It's a collective (You), not a personal one.Every single yesdev interacting with latinx/eceleb content/ericschizo/fagtroon made this happen.
>>548258705>fygoon warned usyeah the guy warning us ruined the /v/ threads you fuckin genius retard
>>548259006Makes sense. It's just disheartening how much worse this place got in just 1 year. It wasn't this nearly this bad in 2024, and that was already a pretty bad year. I just can only hope that it cannot get any worse beyond this point.
>>548249646this but just one nigga
I don't get it.
I have memory problem (one BG is half a Gib)
Everybody refunded my game... Nobody like it... Guys why did you do this to me? Is it because I used AI Voice acting in my game?
Do you STEAL money from the government for your game?My government is offering some money for new small businesses. Not everybody gets the money though.But you cannot spend the money on anything you want, you can spend it on:>buying PC hardware, software, licenses>hiring people, paying them, artists etc.>renting a place for the business>marketing, advertisements>coursesYou cannot spend the money as your salary.I think it's pointless.Why would I buy PC hardware? I already have it.Why would I buy PC software when I can steal it or use open source?Why would I rent a place if I can dev at home?Why would I go on courses when I am an expert?Only the marketing makes sense, but you cannot spend 100% of the money they give on marketing, you can only spend about 20% in this way.What if I hired a homeless bum as artist and he would give me the money back?
>>548236551study slots and daggers
>>548260060I'm considering it. I could use it to hire a local muscician.
>>548260060Buy Macs and iPhones, do not open them, sell after one year.
>>548257741This but with a steeplejack instead of a plumber would be cool.
>>548260176retarded fucking idea, holy
>>548260060>Why would I buy PC hardware?to resell it and pay yourself a salary>Software licensesame but lower profit margin(?)>Rent a placean undercover agreement to have the guy pay you back 80% and you never go there.
>>548258672they give players ways to customize their character to make them unique, this isn't a revolutionary redpilling idea you fucking retard, it's just a more sophisticated customization option which every fucking game in history lacks
>>548260060>Only the marketing makes sense, but you cannot spend 100% of the money they give on marketing, you can only spend about 20% in this way.Spend the 20% you can properly, and write off the rest as "hiring people" (like e-celebs and shit)

>>548258472Who here would rather post their game in a thread where 3 anons dox, post troons and post gore rather than a thread where people post Cris, Eric, Marnix, and Zukowski? Kek you're delusional if the former is better than the latter.Fuck off anon we both know by sane standards that the latter thread is preferred. One will not draw such negative attention to my game.
>>548260771>3 anons dox, post troons and post gore rather than a thread where people post Cris, Eric, Marnix, and Zukowski?Both of these things are posted by the same retards.

Now AI spammer is just flooding the thread with bait. He might've scared the fagoon away but the medicine is worse than the disease now.
I'm pretty sure the USA government will not give me a cent for anything. It has to all be sent to the Jews.
>>548261728if both boku and cris ever leave, the general is doomed. nobody here will admit that either other than you and i it appears.
>>548261728>occasional zuk or eric schizo isn't the problem.Fuck off faggot. This shit is exactly ahy fygoonatard and the ai spammer were able to fester.
>>548261836Post progress then. Do better. Be the shining example.
>>548261836you sure do have a small brain, you ugly fuckin' zoomer. when the adults are talking, you do not talk, do you understand, retard?
having trouble staying awake while coding my game even though i just woke up. i look at the code for 30 minutes then fall asleep for 30 minutes then try again 30 minutes. this is a waste of time. gotta find a way to wake up but not caffeine
>>548262069i think its high CO2 levels in my house but its 17 degrees outside so i cant open a window or anything its all sealed
I can't even post my game that uses AI voice acting here anymore because I'll be accused of being the AI spammer.
>>548262069it boggles my mind how stupid some of you here are. you can't fucking stay awake because your sleep is complete shit. you're either not sleeping long enough or have sleep apnea without a cpap you stupid retard. do you know what the fucking word healthy means retard? it means your body and mind are operating perfectly which as a result makes you feel amazing. that's how you're supposed to live but every single son of a bitch on this fucking planet just doesn't seem to understand the simplest fucking things about life. go back to sleep you fucking retard
>>548262069i have had my eyelids drooping on me in the past when working on boring gamedev tasks, idk why it makes me so bored that i could fall asleep in a seated position.
>>548262201I'd say it's highly probable you are an AI spammer and you don't even have a game
>>548245483>>little witch nortubelisn't that the little goody too shoes yuri game by pts trying to copy anime?
hmm theres a trick where if you are tired, watch a video of the sun. when there is no sun irl that is.
>>548262414I'm not the AI spammer and I do have a game.
>>548264750not a single dev from agdg is using voice acting, ai generated or not, so it's doubtful
>>548265261NTA but my game uses (actual human made, non-AI generated) voice acting.
>>548265261are you fucking retarded, retard
im getting overwhelmed by my insane todo list of requirements to have a "professional unity project" setup. the first 3 are already set up the rest is yet to be.
you guys have to promise not to decompile my game
you guys have to promise to pirate my game and spread it to all your friends
>games in the future will be decompiled by AI and reproduced
>>548265814Post your 100% organic and ethically sourced voice acting
>>548217652>we still talk about you...Most of these games were released and sold a moderate amount, cosmic call even got a fanatical deal which doubled what i got from it.If your first commercial game even sells 50+ (real) copies, its a win.This isnt about making a one off hit, its a journey. I have about 5+ projects/ideas in mind that im gonna do after wasteland bites, no matter the outcomethats the difference between nodevs and devs.>>548220417yea i should probably stop doing that
>>548266736>If your first commercial game even sells 50+ (real) copies, its a win.So if my first commercial game sells less than 50 copies, I should just give up?

can you believe there's 8x more job demand for unreal developers than unity? that's insane to me that unreal is that much bigger.

i think people severely underestimate the size of the hypercasual "i have 40 minutes to relax before bed and want to play something relaxing" dad gamer audiencei believe this crowd is extremely large, possibly the largest PC gaming audience out there, using games as a relaxing form of entertainment that is only slightly above the complexity of scrolling through social mediathese people are very common, even in competitive pvp games, they go full autopilot and essentially treat each match like a gamble
>>548271412This audience is already seized by big publishers that release shitslop every month. You don't stand a chance against them.
>>548271534it's large enough to see great profit from capturing a small portion of them
>>548271615Not really.
>>548271412That's why incrementals are so popular now

I remember asking anons once if there's any way to know which partner account a game is tied to.Since you can type literally ANYTHING into the "publisher" and "dev" fields, I began to wonder if Steam is spammed by one or a bunch or companies cranking out shitslop pretending to be different devs. Thoughts?

I spend this entire year barely surviving because of medical reasons and generally feeling like fucking roadkill.I'm finally back and want to try and make some shit. I heard a lot of studios just moved to Unreal, should I just bite the bullet and spend some time learning it instead of going back to Unity?
The reason why Timmy Timcent wants the AI tag abolished is because he plans to integrate AI into Unreal.The funny thing is, gabencunt will oblige and do it because of all the devs that use Unreal.Reminder that gabencunt first banned all AI on Steam in 2023, but then rolled back on that decision and added the tag because of The Finals (first AAA slop to use AI).He will bend the knee this time just as he did before.
>>548279112Yeah, i agree. I think the menus are much better, but the game itself, it feels off. Like i just can't replicate the same CRT feeling.

I don't remember asking you for feedback.

>>548260450What's so retarded about it?
>>548284447Yeah there was so much big talk in the early 2020s and now we're heading into 2026 and none of it happened and you know what I'm fine with that and so is everyone else. This is happening in the indie scene as well where the attitude is you know what, we want to stay small and make small games, we don't even like 80 hour movie games anymore. And graphics? Good enough and has been good enough for almost 12 years.

Hm. prototyping is fine but game design is about having a plan, justifying it for yourself based on logic and similar experiences and going from there.so your base is the game design, then you might try to implement it differently if it doesn't work out the way you expected. I don't think I put enough effort into thinking about game loop. Good thing I have only done systems work until now for the most part.

Will adding NGE's spear of longinus (call it something else) be a cute cheeky move or a poser move(I don't really like eva, I just like how it looks)ignore the copyright shit which obviously can happen, replacing one asset is a breeze.

>>548294519Retard move.
>>548294705why?
>>548292626>>548293589Nah. Neither of you get it. Dwarf Fortress is an example that does it very well and is easily understood. Dwarf Fortress the game (the model) is the exact same regardless if you attach a nice modern tileset (view) and interface (controller) or if you play it through a command line interface with ASCII characters as sprites.

If it's 2025-cum-26 and you're not developing your game in a functional programming language, it's over. You are, by definition, NGMI.

I've noticed two kinds of playersIntelligent ones and retarded ones
>>548295624They do own their design.
>>548296040>I don't get why players are complaining. It runs fine on my machine
>>548294774You like how it looks, there's a reason for that. So you should take that reason and apply it to your own unique designs.

>>548285174I think it's pretty bad Bocchi sis buttttttt if you've been developing it for 2, maybe even 3+ years at this point and are considering adding more development time to "save it" from failure, then it's time to let go. Maybe do some marketing, sign it up for Next Fest coming in February, assuming you can still sign up, maybe a little polish, and start devving the next game if you still want to make games. Trust me sis I've been there it doesn't feel good when it's been long in development and has so little wishlists.
I added sparks when kinetic ammunition hits a vehicle. (Yes I know I should make the vehicles shake when they fire and get hit - it's on my todo list.)

A game about digging a hole. But the rewards are not some gems and a jank giant mole cutscene. They'd be uncovering an underground city of hole diggers who think you're one of them, you find a hole digging wife and start a hole digging family. Then you wake up from that dream and gaze longingly at your hole-less lawn
>>548298256did you just read my mind right now? I had a thought like this just a few seconds ago what the actual fuck is going on here?

>>548298525>You need to use AI but we will force a disclaimer on your game that causes review bombs and boycotts>Oh and btw we are using AI for Deadlock's art and we don't have to disclose

People shitted on me last time for setting my name to "lorekeeper" yet failing to give in depth lore so this time I won't fail.>>548301360He is a new lolcow but has likely been posting anonymously for 1-2 years on here, he develops an arma 3 mod and is pro AI, he also has doxxed himself during one of his episodes revealing the town he's from and his face. He also posted his face in this thread if you scroll up. There is speculation that he is "the gore spammer" (in certain occasions the thread was spammed with some low quality gore imagery, most images were incomprehensable) sometimes the gore was one particular picture of some guy's mutilated genital area. And there's also speculation that he is the "ai xister" (individual who constantly spams and baits with topics relating to AI, he is present in this thread aswell)If you want my opinion on it, I think he's not the ai xister, but he's likely the gore spammer.
>>548302842Also, the ai xister is pro-joshua I think. He praises him for being a fellow "ai chad" (an individual that embraces the use of AI in game development or otherwise) yet they have no relation to each other besides this.
>>548302842Additionally, I heard Joshua has a harem of gamer girls who help playtest his Arma mod.

Add non-linearity, freedom to chase leads, heavy combat, light combat or no combat options, and with a way to replay the game to see different outcomes and different point of view.

>>548306241We’re in the recovery phase. The schizos are gone. Now we wait for the yesdevs to return. Anytime a schizo posts and you engage with them, you’ll delay the return.
Would PS1 style low poly models be a good start for someone who is an absolute beginner at 3D modeling and art in general?
Game where you hunt down and kill pdf files.
>>548307131i look like this fr
>>548307907You ARE the schizo, retard.
Game design question: I'm making a mobile game with basketball theme. I'm thinking of generating random challenges and player will have to pay fee to attend these. Let's say 100 coins. But if you reach the goal of the challenge you will make 200 coins. What do you think of this idea? On one hand I thought this was a great idea because it's kind of a gambling theme and it's a mobile game so it fits. But on the other hand having attendance fees might make player hesitant to risk their money and prevent them from playing these. Why would you risk your money since there is no some sort of upgrade system where player will have to spend the earned coins constantly. I thought of making player buy energy to keep playing. It feels like it will deter the player even more from playing.
>>548308768you engaged with a schizo. You fell for it
>>548309060First challenge every day has no fee, but still has a possible reward
Progress: making some music. https://files.catbox.moe/v1bzsd.mp3WIP but I like how it sounds
>>548308230Yeah.
I can't dev because of anxiety. I have to leave my house after 6 months of shut in to go to the tax office on Monday to reset my log-in info. I don't remember the email I gave them, so I can't do it myself. They told me that I'd be charged with tax crimes if I don't file it by Tuesday. I'm a neet, but they still bother me with this shit. I don't have meds for my social anxiety because I didn't want to go out to meet my psychiatrist. Normies are evil creatures.Maybe I'll make a game about a demonic tax man who's trying to maximize human suffering.
>>548310729This is why that one dude built the killdozer btw.
In my game you drive a truck between cities that are hundreds of kilometers apart and the truck is supposed to travel at truck speeds but that would take ages. So am I supposed to show 80km/h on the speedometer but also that the destination is closer by a kilometer every seconds? I know players ignore that in games like Euro Truck Simulator but I feel my game will be punished if I try something like that.
sucks only 80 iq games succeed massively. i know it was quite a long time ago but im remembering when someone took Space Station 13, a very complex game, and boiled it down into the 80 iq game known as Among Us and made billions
>>548310729I wish you well. I also have that sort of anxiety. I need to go to the dentist and for three months I've been postponing it. Cleaning your room really helps. Even if you start by one small item per day. Going outside for daily walks also might help you not get disconnected from real life. If you needed help that is.
>>548310729it's just one of those adult things you have to do. 30k years ago you would have had to deal with sabretooth tigers and 2000 years ago you would have had to deal with germanic barbarians raiding your village and now you have to file your taxes on time. I think it's an improvement but I'm a normie so what do I know...
Just a reminder the AI kings here each have a game/mod, meanwhile the antis have zero.

>>548308230It's better to start simple so you can practice the process end to end which will help you plan your future projects. You are also likely to get more done and learn with less frustration vs starting off with intricate assets and game mechanics.
Now both threads are stuck, great!
>>548310351Cool start. The lead playing the melody sounds a little random and lacking in direction though. I don't think the melodies and motifs are bad, but maybe you should deviate further from home to add some contrast and focus.
