>>550740954Nothing is more effective than a well-timed e-celeb video essay + fanart spam for a game's success. Every single non-slop game that succeeded in the past few years can attribute its success to these factors. But good luck getting those.
>>550741143kek. imagine gambling it on gamedev while having a wife and kids.
>>550741143god damn i think the most important thing a game developer needs is the sense of Taste (which 99% devs lack off, including this dude)
last ever agdg post.
bokudev wants his game to be a success, while also being jank, for the simple reason that he can't fix the jank himself and want to only rely on himself. Trouble is, bokube isn't the kind of game that can really be successful while being jank
>tfw found a vid interviewing a dev who finished releasing a game>someone upset that the dev sounds eager to move onto something and instead wants him to provide content updatesYou know what, these people deserve to get fed slop

>spend 2 months coding a prototype>find a template that's literally the game i want to make but coded better than my prototypecan't believe i'm considering trashing my own project and making a template game
>>550741482Is this the same guy who browbeat his wife into betting their entire family's future on a gay 2d Reddit child game because he kept yelling at her and guilting her over his brother's death?

>>550741143I think sasquatch b should be studied by psychiatrists.just look at this photo, there is so much to it. even between the two of them>separate rooms despite living together>he's in a decked out home office with RGB lights, wall panels, iMac, good webcam>she's in some dingy bedroom, a hand-me-down headset, early 2010s 720p webcam>despite all of this, she is the breadwinner in the relationship with her dollar store jobalso did they ever explain why they did this really weird Q&A in the first place?You know how delusional people like to imagine themselves going on talk shows or joe rogan? It looks like sasquatch was suffering from this delusion, wrote down a fan-fiction interview, and demanded that his wife play along.

>>550744120A learning opportunity.
If you get banned please understand it's not because I hate you. It's because I hate you AND i enjoy doing the new captcha
>>550744664never understood how to learn from a finished project (beyond mabe structuring the same for a new project).say i make all my code similar to it, then my project just ends up looking like an edited version of the template, in which case i may as well use the template. at least that would be more "honest".
>>550740245>made Xbox Live Arcade and the Nintendo eShop>suddenly quits to promote indie games because he likes them>makes a success out of countless shartformer flops through the sheer power of his reputation alone
>>550745608Just how small is your game that a template is what puts it all together?
>>550745608>at least that would be more "honestyou think games are honest? you're using a bunch of 1s and 0s to trick people into thinking a bunch of flashing pixels on a screen have meaning.
I'm experienced enough to decide to use integers instead of enums because it makes more sense. it's just one of those things that us experienced professional programmers can decide to do and no one can say anything.

i don't get blows new game. so you push objects around to solve puzzles? that's it?
>>550745703i'd still have to code for probably a year on top of it, but the foundation for all the major systems are 90%~ right there in the template, and it has its own conventions built to be built upon, think like>[TEMPLATE] object>[TEMPLATE] attributeetc.so a lot of what i'd make would be within scope of, and become part of, the template in a way.>>550745970maybe not, but most games aren't sharing upwards of half their source code with a template while pretending to be solodev original, no?
>>550740106>it works so far
>>550746440wanna know the full story? back when bokudev first started making bokube, he insulted J Blow on twitter claiming that he's the new indie kingso J Blow responded by not only making a superior sokoban game, but also by creating a new programming language and engine from scratch to do it.Mess with the Blow and you'll get Blown.
>>550746620
she wants to make art for my game but i dunno what game to make. bruh i have no soul. yeah i'm already giving up, but the lack of other options in life keeps me stuck in gamedev. if you are stuck in a room and you cant get out but also can suicide, you basically cannot win and also cannot give up. you are stuck in some sort of weird inbetween zone.
>>550746827I don't understand ...
>>550746860if you can't even idea guy you're not gonna make it
>>550746679>so many negative reviews>a few people still tricked into buying it cause "it's on sale!"Why? Inb4 most of them refund cause multiplayer is dead.

>>550746620oh yeah I should explain wtf I'm doing. Wordnet has a c api but I said 'fuck it' and wrote a parser and used the pure database files.Thw whole point is if I have a user type in something like "grab feline"I want it to be equivalent to "retrieve cat"That kind of thing.
>>550744548He's really not all that special. We have a bunch of equally delusional retards here in the thread. They just aren't sociable enough to maintain a YouTube channel.
>>550747414>okay mom now take the photo its for stock images i sell, trustKek, easier explaining gamedev
It’s fitting that all the games from here end up flopping. You guys all have bad attitudes and terrible cliquey personalities. I don’t think there are any good people here or in the discord. A wise man once said, “When the wicked are given honor, the city grieves.”
>>550747682>has a wife that looksmogs him>not that special
>>550748110A wise man also said, “Do not rejoice when your enemies suffer, or the Lord may see it and be displeased and stop punishing them.”

>>550749135not that weird when you realize they grew up on roblox, minecraft, league of legends, and fortnite. all games that have been getting regular updates for most of their lives.

Is there any logical reason why the captcha is a lot easier on mobile? I feel like the lower quality posts in Agdg are going to come from phone posters like me. I know I’m certainly not contributing to the quality of this community

so ive been making games for a while but i still wanna come up with a studiolike name for an eventual project so it's not just like my solodev name whenever i get more people on a larger scale project but like anything i come up with is always taken

if i made a Rust-like survival game i would put all sorts of noob traps like a certain species of tree with flammable sap so the moment you try to cut it down it explodes sending shards of wood into your body killing you, stuff like that. you gotta learn what dangerous fantasy species of things exist. also makes PVP more fun since you can knock them into environmental hazards.
>>550755582thank you

>>550755374Just don’t put “dev” at the end of your name that’s turbo gay

>Twenty page terrible explanation from a book I'm working through>Two thirty second example pages on a coding website providing the same explanationI've lost all will to code. If you can't explain abstraction and polymorphism in thirty seconds with the two key terms it takes to implement them, what's the point.
>>550756194It's called getting older. When you were young, social connections happen naturally though school. In adulthood there is nothing forcing you to see or interact with people.You need to prioritize planning times to meet friends, and work to maintain those connection. Unironically I suggest scheduling reminders to text specific people once a week. Even better is to schedule regular activities with them, like working out twice a week, or going to a movie once a month.
>>550756194Nigga you're supposed to be partying, traveling or making connections with people in your 20's, not making games alone in your room.
I'm going to start sculpting my body into a Warrior MMA body. No more hazily bulking muscle forever. I'm also coding my Vulkan Renderer.coding a CPU C Memory Arena Allocator then I'll move the logic over to my own Vulkan GPU Arena Allocator.https://youtu.be/DMdqsS0a9tY
>>550756227My favorite professor was the one who kept making food analogies. What's a computer architecture pipeline? That's just a McDonalds drive through. You have one stage to browse the menu, one stage to place your order, one stage where you pay, and one stage where you pick up. I'll never forget.

Just got done with a four hour long Bedabot community meeting. During this meeting, we received and showcased twelve new pieces of fan art, drawn live by our talented community!
>>550757837It feels like you're more-so selling a gooner community rather than selling a video game.

>>550758049Except for the goon part, that’s 99% of all indie games. The devs are selling a shitty discord community instead of a game.

Going to read a book on how to program a graphical 3D renderer without using a single library.I am tired of being a no coder pleb.
>>550758525Faggot
>>550758273We had lots to discuss, from the enormous new update we released last Friday to the first wave of backer concept art, all of the feedback we've received on the update, all of the new techniques we're employing, the size and scale of the game (2TB of network transfer this month so far), what we'll be doing going into 2026, and lots more!

>>550758717She’s still recovering from her bottom surgery.
>>550758647Cris. Stop. I'm a professional software engineer with a decade of industry experience, and I would never do instead of just using Unity, Godot, or Unreal. Just like make game.
>>550758647That would be a software renderer. Good learning experience. I can't vouch for the feasibility of releasing a game with a software renderer though. But you'll investigate the viability of that during your path.I'd recommend Vulkan if you want a Low Level API to the GPU.

>>550758963>>550758941I am honestly tired of always trying to use frameworks and libraries and failing over and over because I am not good enough to do it from scratch.

>>550759128Is that dog shit still in development and why
>>550758525Tomasz*
>>550759095Then, start with Godot without using any Nodes or the scene tree. Instead, directly call RenderingServer functions.
>>550759458godot generates 90 MB with an empty project.That's unaceptable.
>>550758525you didn't even mention me. that's it. That was my last straw
>>550758941>>550759458Don’t project your own incompetence onto everyone else.
I envy gamedevs who don't feel like an impostor when using game engines. I had like 700 hours in godot and ditched it because I felt like a fraud
>>550758525I have a strict policy of not making "real" friends from 4chan ever since I got a gay stalker from a Steam Friends thread on /v/, many eons ago.
>>550758525No one ever mentioned me
>>550759546Alright, Cris. I'm not arguing anymore. You do you. As much as I want you to make it, you just don't have it in you.>>550759760Don't project your nodev cope onto everyone else.
>>550758717Yeah I wouldn't be surprised. He clearly doesn't have any respect for the craft or any interest in it. It's just social currency to him, and since it's not working out, he's done with it.
Man, you know your idea is fucking retarded when even ChatGPT tells you it's retarded and not to do it

>>550760389Ironic that you would call people nodevs while shaming people for doing software development instead of copy pasting little Godot snippets.
>>550761282because people get fed up with a title if enough time passes and they want something similar but different and new.Cant tell if naysayer or just clueless.

>>550762021Yeah he should fall to depression after realizing how self constructed his world has been, and then have a journey where he recovers a new sense of self without ego and fear. Perhaps he could become a ghost for a 1000 years without being able to communicate and can only watch people from afar
i just realized why i have 100s of game ideas yet nothing works. it's because i'm a programmer and not an artist. when i think about the programming part i can evaluate how much work it takes, what is possible, what i can do. but for the art, i can't. i can come up with ideas but i cannot make any judgements about the quality of the idea. if i'd have a background in art i could evaluate what type of assets/styles i can make and which ones i can't. this is what actually makes ideas work, when you can validate that you can actually make them. and i can't do that if i don't have art skills.
Working on a new feature, one suggested by a player. Applying "stickers" to dice faces that effect the roll or do things when that face is used.I plan to put these in the "Cage" section of the shop screen, which is obsolete. These will also take the place of the dice bag feature (Not popular with players), but the different dice combos and flavors will stay.Feels good to be working on a feature again, but this has added a good amount of complexity to my dice logic.
>>550763168A true artist isn't going to be that pragmatic. You're still thinking like a programmer.The good stuff is born when you have both an artist (someone with a vision) and a programmer (someone actually in touch with reality) having a back-and-forth battle with technical limitations where the programmer forces the artist to make compromises and the artist pushes the programmer to push technical limits in order to get closer to the artists' vision.
>>550763520whoops>>550742936
>>550763168Well, you can still evaluate your capabilities. You're doing it right now
>>550763618i more and more feel like i shouldn't even be the idea guy, but the one making stuff work.
>>550763168What you mean to say is that you're not a designer. Design requires that you have a reasonable understanding of the design space, which for the design of a video game, includes needing to know all the technical limitations and requirements for visual assets.Friendly reminder that game design is the hardest part of game development.
>>550763618I actually think it's the opposite. It must be a relationship where you respect the others labor, making the work easier for each other. I can't stand seeing developers put so much unnecessary work into stuff
>>550763734And there's no shame in that, if you feel your place is in the programming department and you're good at it, then start applying for jobs at a game studio. If you find a decently small indie studio you'll still get to throw in your own ideas and you're almost guaranteed to have at least some when you're trying to work around technical limitations to make something work.Carmack for instance was purely a programmer, through and through. Not a single story or gameplay idea in his head. But he would have never managed to make Doom without Id Software as a whole. If it weren't for Romero and Hall with the necessary expertise in the other fields of game design, there wouldn't be a game, and Carmack would have been stuck working on financing software for the rest of his life, even though he enjoyed videogames and wanted to work on them.>>550764027Yeah, that's a better way to put it. I didn't mean it like the programmer and artist telling each other to stop, but the programmer gives 110% for the artist so he doesn't have to dial back his vision as much for the technical limitations.
>>550763923>hardestbruh i know artists who get a mental breakdown when they have to install a browser
>>550763734Not everyone is cut out to be an indie (independent) solo video game developer who are small business owners and need to make all these kinds of decisions for themselves. If you have the skills, you should go be an employee at a larger studio.
>>550756194Get 'er done. Don't worry about the world. "We" are fixing it.
>>550759546Get Defold. Reasonable compromise between a framework and more featured engines
i've been testing out and comparing local LLMs, i found a good one and it works :)
i'm not going to get a gamedev job. i'd rather just not dev and work minimum wage low responsibility jobs. careers burn me out. i hate ambition. i just enjoy gamedev when it's cozy.

the problem with algorithms is that they become echo chambers, an algorithm that ignores your preferences is more likely to make you discover something new.

My game is like half-done and I still don't know anything about steam, I don't even have a developer account. Should I start looking into steam now or is it too early? How much work does it even require to integrate my game with steam? I assume I have to bring some kind of steam DLL into my build?
>>550773235If you're using one of the popular game engines, it's trivially easy because someone else is already maintaining the Steamworks SDK integration for you. If not, then yeah, you're fucked, and you'll have to add another two to four weeks to your dev time.
>>550761710This is false. For starters, Unity is a problem for which there is no solution. You know, it’s funny, because eventually we’re going to reach a point (I’d argue we are almost already there) where you won’t even be able to find developers knowledgeable enough to maintain engines like Unity. Retards like you will just start using Unity to try and make new versions of Unity. It will be a rather shitty future for technology as software incompetence will erase any gains in hardware performance.
>nearly lunch time>nothing accomplished
>>550773425Are you retarded? You literally just link the steamworks library with your program when compiling. It’s not rocket science. Don’t answer that question about you being retarded
>>550773235it's ranges from very little work to a lot of work depending on what you'll support (achievements, for instance) and you should've worked on that from the beginning, really.
>>550756194Don't be psyopped. Things are actually pretty good right now, you don't have to be surrounded by friends to just go out in society and notice people being happy living life, especially because they aren't stuck on the internet all day. So things are not bad. Now 4 years ago that was something else. Let's not talk about that though.
>>550773430I don't use Unity anymore, but the source is available if you need to fix something. Also, skill issue.
every 20 years monks tear down Unity and rebuild it. this help keep the skills and knowledge from disappearing.
>>550773425Are you a steamworks partner? You should have access not only to download the library but also to examples to use it. It’s very easy if you know what you want to do. I assume you’re wanting mainly achievements which are trivial to set up.
>>550773534who's my cute incompetent lazy ngmi retard? you arelil cutie patootie
>>550773651Yes you have a skill issue. Indie “developers” represent an erosion of a comprehensive skill set.
>>550773651You don’t know how to read source code
Just been doing asset creation, trying to make at least 1 ship per day. There's about 20 ship designs per quadrant, and 5 quadrant, so...it's a lot of ships. Anyway I thought the one I made today was neat, a spider resting on a bedding of web
>>550769895I have no idea
>>550773430It’s going to be way worse with vibe coders gluing in chatgpt spaghetti. I caught a glimpse of the future when someone linked to some public microsoft repos where you could see a bunch of Indians just shouting at copilot trying to make it unfuck the things it broke.

>>550774421>Is there a single enginedev that has added achievementsI just looked at Animal Well and it appears to have achievements. Looking at Valves docs shows that it’s almost the exact API call as if you were doing it through Unity or whatever. (I have only used Unity)

Instead of devving I spent the last 2 days procrastinating by learning webshitting to vibecode a perfect manga reader, maybe I should do it in godont instead?
>>550775092You recognize this fact yourself. OpenGL isn't hard. In fact, it's very easy. It's all boilerplate and a waste of time. That's time that you think you have right now, when really you don't. How long have you been tinkering with OpenGL? How many multi-million dollar games have been built from beginning to end in that time?

>>550775907>>550776065All this talk and yet neither of you have a game.
I disagree. It was relatively easy to put together the backbone of my game. I say backbone instead of engine because it’s not a general purpose editor like unity. But if I wanted to I could take the majority of the components I built and use them for another game. The only truly difficult part was learning how to program shaders since I had no knowledge about that starting out.
This is what working on my game feels like.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=to29LvuColU

>cris evolved into a bocchi poster
>>550776786Learn modular development principles.
I'm not going to study physics to understand on an expert level how light and sound work when I could be working on my fucking game instead, I will gladly use whatever the fuck the people who actually know and care about that stuff put together for me to use in Unity/Godot regardless of how poorly optimized it might be. The fact is that I could probably develop several full games in the time it took me to learn on a level necessary to code my own implementation of a sound/physics engine that's more optimized and accurate to life than what already exists.
>>550776482You are channeling your inner cris right now.
>>550776858I learn something new every time. This next one is going to be the real one. I just have a feeling.
>>550776786as long as things can reasonably be reused and improved, that's normal. Your design tastes always change as well.
my game is starting to look good
>>550776871That’s the thing, nobody studies how physics lighting or whatever works, they just copy the algorithm from a book once and forget about it. But I’m white so I had a few physics courses in university and already a bit about these things. Your upbringing can change your perspective on things like this.
>>550776583"Making components for future games" is a nodev fantasy. It sounds good on paper, but doesn't happen in practice because there's always potential for improvement through refactoring. It's very rare that a structure will port over cleanly in its entirety. Even if you can do it, it's usually not worth it because with the extra time spent adding too many mostly unnecessary future-proof interfaces results, you could've just rewritten the whole thing better because it's specifically designed for the current game at hand.
Minecraft can run an 8 person server on a $25 dollar android phone, but I can't game my games in Godot or Unity to run at 60fps on my RTX 3060. Am I doing something wrong?
>>550777250>It sounds good on paper, but doesn't happen in practiceit was standard practice in the AAA since the NES lol
I thought Notch was against engines huhhttps://x.com/toastedcherries/status/2001863850120122749

>>550777370>comparing playing a game to running a game serverretard
>>550776220Graphics is hard because there is so much complexity per-platform that doesn’t need to be there but it is. Ironically I would say that’s what’s great about Unity because it tries to unite different standards in a universal way, but in my opinion it does it in poor taste. I prefer how SDL does everything (but you still have to program your own graphics, fucking gay)
>>550777250>"Making components for future games" is a nodev fantasy.What lolThat is literally industry standard. Not just in games but in all kinds of software. Even indie devs are prone to copy and pasting things that worked from their previous project even if they don’t know why they worked.
>>550777370This is misinformation. Minecraft has a RAM scaling problem. After you spawn a few more than just the first few chunks, you'll quickly hit RAM bottlenecks.t. had to migrate my Minecraft server for my friends from a 16gb to a 32gb machine after a days
>>550777471He said every developer should know how to make their own engine not that they should never use a premade engine.
>>550777759That's bullshit. Minecraft servers run fine on 1GB unless you are running mods.
>>550777395thisMegaman 1 was just a template for games like Ducktales or Darkwing Duck not to mention Megaman 2-6Psycho Fox was a stepping stone for Decap Attack, and both games had a Kid Cool as a predecessor.
>>550777395>>550777753You're copy-and-pasting, and then modifying and hacking at it. It's not going to be a perfectly clean and portable module/library like you're imagining. It's going to be a mess and you're going to need to refactor bits. That's the industry standard.
>>550777912Oh shit, there was a game before Decap Attack? Thanks buddy!
>>550777964Sounds like a “skill issue” on your part.
>>550777964>You're copy-and-pasting, and then modifying and hacking at it.Yeah that's the point. Of course things will have to change from game to game, hopefully for the better. The big win is changing and improving will be less work and time than rewriting, else you've failed to make reusable things.If you want a more modern example, look at Naughty Dog's GOAL engine.https://github.com/open-goal/jak-project

>>550778231The problem is all the candidates for reuse from the previous project are so shitty that I’m better off rewriting them entirely. Usually because I failed to grasp the foundational concepts of how they work and was mindlessly aping them from tutorials. Only having to learn them properly towards the end of the previous project anyways because I couldn’t figure out why things weren’t working.
>>550774226>20 ship designs per quadrant, and 5 quadrant100 ship designs, in 3d with textures also, that's probably over 100 hours of ship building. maybe you can turn some upside down and call it a new ship, or start building parts that can be kitbashed. how many do you have so far?

How do I learn how to use music trackers? Everyone says to learn music theory or it's the same as an instrument but I don't play any musical instruments and have 0 knowledge on theory. Anyway what I don't get is they tell you to learm chords but I don't know how that would translate to a tracker since I'd only use 2-4 channels with no polyphony.
Sweet, sweet dopamine.
>>550780645"Chords" is a bit of a misnomer. What they meant is "harmony", which can be articulated through means other than just playing all the notes simultaneously, such as through arpeggios. Also, that advice probably came from Cris, and you're retarded for listening.

How are your games doing, anons?I've just released my own game engine. You can believe me when I say that it's the best tool on the market for building UI-heavy games(whether it's twine-like text games, VN, or RPGs). And of course it's absolutely free to use so give it a try.There are two main philosophies it follows:Easy to use: You don’t need to install anything or write a single line of code. Just use the Editor’s forms to create your own game or modify existing ones. The engine already handles all the basics you’d expect from an RPG: characters and party, items and inventories, VN-style scenes and branching events, quests, gallery, skill trees, crafting, and more.Built to be extended: If you do want to go deeper, it’s designed so you can plug in your own custom UI and systems with a bit of Javascript, without fighting the engine or rewriting everything from scratch.So, you don't have any more excuses not to make your dream game.How to access Dryad EngineDownload the engine here(windows or linux version): https://mega.nz/folder/cRUjSZLD#m55VFuI-7q138TZZYGtbuQExtract the zip file and run 'dryad-engine' executable. It already includes the Tutorial game.[Optional]Lewd Mod :To access spicy animated scenes with Riko, download the lewd mod here: https://mega.nz/file/MEUgFBjA#Ud76Auk0Aj98C9AsFHFfxzoImDM3gDDYhEdtg_XOeGwDo NOT extract the .zip. Instead put it inside [path/to/engine]/assets/install. Then in the engine main menu press the 'Install' button in the top left corner and choose the mod to install. When starting a new game, make sure to check in the lewd mod before pressing the play button.Github: https://github.com/DryadQuestDev/dryad-engine

>>550783302well, C is too hardcore for my small brain and it also feels like focusing on graphics and competing with Unity and Unreal which I'm not even thinking about.

wow, It seems a raytracer is actually easy to make, lmao.
i dont get how someone can make an engine but not a game. making an engine is like 10x harder than making a game.
>be artist>be not an idea guy>this is the game https://store.steampowered.com/app/2068520/Banana_Hell_Mountain_of_Madness/>now given away for freeI wish I was good at art
>>550784512Does it actually run on the GPU? I made one with a book once but I didn’t know how to make run on the GPU because I was using SDL to draw individual pixels one by one and I’m pretty sure that was software mode.
>>550784310because 1) it's much better at the job and comes with powerful data-driven architecture and not shitcode your average dev produces working in Renpy or Unity. You use forms instead to manage your data.2) it comes with already prebuilt systems like characters and party, items and inventories, VN-style scenes and branching events, quests, gallery, skill trees, crafting, and more. (that are also extendable) so you don't waste your time on writing tons of boilerplate code.
>>550784636This is pathetic. Even the AIfags could do better.

>>550785054You can open the engine's documentation(for now just built in the engine since I don't have the site for it yet) and we can talk what other engines have. I can assure you they suck balls compared to what my engine has. And it's just the first release version.

>It worksHell yeah bros. Got the sticker system working, now you can apply small modifiers or effects to specific dice faces. This has various effects, from changing the number rolled, to giving gold.I especially like how the sticker stays in it's place on the dice roll. I have some animations to polish up, but overall I'm really happy with the system. I know it's not the most unique feature, but I think it will go over players better then the dice bag, which no one buys.In other news, I've gotten some great motivation from players recently, which is feeling great. I've got the next 10 days off from work as well, so I can really get stuff working well for DD66.

It's cut down by half, yet a few parts are no longer easy to read as I had to make certain variable's generic sounding. Couldn't make it sound like it belonged to one thing or the other. It kinda makes sense but requires a bit more thinking. I'm not really sure about using it, it's a smaller script but it loses ease of readability. I spent maybe an hour or two on this, idk.

>>550805969Thank you anon, by the way, I am almost 100% sure that negative review comes from reddit because I tried to post there a few hours ago to share my game and what I get? someone immediately making stuff up: "Your slider for sfx are not working", sure... then I got that negative review a few minutes later. Does anybody here remember when I launched my first game Fiend Heart and got mixed reviews? well, at that time, I made the same mistake of sharing my game on reddit and when I did that, I noticed how suddenly I started to get negative reviews, which dropped the game reviews to a mixed 55%, and now, without the influence of that God-forsaken place, it's sitting at 72%Seriously, in all this years working in my projects, I always read that advice of "posting in Reddit", and everytime I tried it's just a painful experience only comparable to someone hammering a nail into one of my testicles. I never got something positive out of that site when marketing a game and I am not trying anymore over there.
>>550805969>a man with the power of God and anime on xir side
>>550805969Is there a more serious place to promote your games on like tumblr used to be? Reddit and 4chan is full of bitter virgins
>>550811363"Troon Shooter" just isn't a genre that needs to kick offSimple as
I spoke to a guy a while back who decided to quit gaming entirely because nobody made games in the genre he liked (realistic stealth games like splinter cell). He was a retard though because he refused to try indie games since he didn't like their graphics but that's beside the point.It got me thinking just how many people like that are there, who might also be willing to try indies but are not because nobody makes them in the genre they want.The rougelike/friendslop market contraction won't last, eventually it will get too saturated and/or audience tastes will change. But by that point, too many genres will have been pushed out of "viability" and too much of the audience will be lost.Is this what Gaben wanted?
>>550811608I never play indie because I don't wanna play Mario Bros as a little troon girl like some weird forgettable named game called naked rain or somethingI mean what is the point of playing the same game made worse by a little troonoid?
>>550811363Twitter, Tiktok, Instagram and YoutubeShorts are the ones that work, I read that posting on Bilili (chinese youtube) can work but I don't know that language so I not trying for now.Other options to gain wishlist are:- making a demo for steam.- participate with the demo on festivals.- convince a streamer to play your demo.- steam next fest, but next fest should be the last thing you do in your marketing campaign.
In my first person games you play as a man and in my third person games you play as a (little) girl.

Look at him now 300+ reviews. Not rich but it must feel good putting them in their place with that many sales. I hope yours sells well anon!
>>550812527Tricky dev came here and said he paid some advertising firm upwards of 15k dollars to shill his game for him. I don't remember the exact numbers but that's what I remember him and anons saying.
>>550812792Is that so?
>>550812792you sure? i recall him just taking credit card debt to finance his game. i believe he'd have done better letting the game develop for more time instead of releasing it with the small amount of content he originally had.
This place is so nice when the shitposter is busy doing his routine on /v/ instead.
>>550813714>i recall him just taking credit card debt to finance his game.And why do you think he did that, anon?
>>550813312Do you use AI voice acting in your game?
>>550814065cause he was neeting from what i remember.
Why would you guys promote your game on reddit if you're not already reddit regulars and deeply entrenched in reddit culture?Imagine if someone who has never been on 4chan or knew anything about 4chan came on /v/ to shill his game, do you think that would be a good idea? Have you learned nothing from Marmo's humiliation ritual?
>>550814362reddit simply has more paypigs

The sheer amount of samefagging in this thread is fucking bizarre. I recall seeing an anon getting dismissed a few threads ago for suggesting some weirdo is astroturfing youtube grifter shit but I didn't realize it was this bad. Why does this general attract so many bad faith users.

It seems I'm reaching the feared eternal night of the nowhere dream in the viacruxis towards reaching the golden egg in the dreams of the void, chuds.I will use godot, I would love to make my own engine and while It was fun to dabble with libraries, is just something I need to accept that's how modern games are made.

>>550819598not fulfilling the fantasy of a goblin camp. goblins are typically a bit more 'fun', this looks drab.
>>550819598beautifully made, complex systems, sandboxyi guess it comes down to the fantasy? not many people want to lead a colony of asexual blue guys based on finnish mythology? im sure the game is fun to play...
>>550819598it seems like the dev was following a city builder tutorial and then swapped out the generic villagers for generic goblins and thought that'd be enough.But he doesn't realize the goblins clash with the generic fantasy and the whole thing turns people off.He needed custom art that actually fit goblin aesthetics.Also Early Access
>>550819598Environment art looks high quality but whats this>im making goblins but its my huge leap of an interpretation on what a goblin is
>>550820065Oh also, why would I buy this when I can just play other city builders like this one? I already have one and quite enjoyed it but this looks like a step in the wrong direction despite higher skill in graphics
>>550820274>why would I buy this when I can just play other city builders like this one?Because you've grown tired of playing the other ones over and over. You do not understand the consumer mindset whatsoever, so stop trying to use it.
balatro but its chess. every round you have to win the chess match but you can only take your surviving pawns into the next round. between round you can open chests with random chess pieces. also the enemy gets increasingly stronger combination of pieces.
Tfw as Ive devved longer and longer that I now can see where devs cut corners.>game I enjoyed for a long time>notice quality drop off further into the gameOriginally written off as weird design choice but now I'm sure they were sick of working on the game or were pressed for time or noticed they were getting stuck devving to long and just rushed certain content out asap. No beautifully done map for one area. Questionable decision on the unlocks for certain things. And iirc the story just feeling rushed later on compared to early on.
>>550820402Oh but anon this is a city builder, this isnt vampire survivors. Look at FTL, now look at the clone Void War. Or look at regular coop games vs friendslop games
>>550820274yeah it's a little sad to see it's not received very well. Game design, programming and art seem all high quality. Maybe it's thematically too sterile. needs some carnal fantasy fulfillment like kidnapping humans, defending the colony from orcs, raiding etc. I want to avoid its mistakes, it's tragic to see a labor of love get not appreciated
>>550820542just the pawns? or can you keep other pieces too?
>>550820796you first
>>550820856
Had the idea to set up a blend file so I could roughly line up meshes and curves and still get a nice single map mesh with no gaps and consistent sizes easily without needing to stick to a grid. Left is the export, pretty good other than a bit of wonky shit where stairs will go. But god damn though, there's a lot of geometry nodes now.
>>550820708are you saying the theme has to be different enough from past successful examples? (Void War is like FTL with a darker space punk theme?)
i stumble over a lot of nice channels/content by just searching "numbers game design".numbers are cool.
>>550820956IQ test captcha was so surprising I forgot the file.
>>550820968No, I was alludong to the fact some people can't be ripped off of games they've permanently attached themselves to. I think this genre might be one of them, the kinda genre where people eack up thousands on a single game or so I think. Void War, despite all the hubbub, didn't do as great as the noise suggested. It still sold well just not as greatly as it seemed it would have. I think with FTL many of the fans are just bent on never letting go off it. Might be the same logic with 4x, citybuilders, basically anything with huge time investments, maybe even any niches where the first game was so well done that it's got an iron grip on the playerbase
Crazy how much work I get done when I don't check this thread every 10 minutes.My new year's resolution is to stop talking with people here. Just post progress and reply to constructive criticism and that's it.
>>550821946social needs are more important than success. actually ambitions can ruin your social relationships and make you extremely lonely. loneliness hurts and leads to depression, meaning you'll get done less and feel way less motivated to do anything.would you rather talk to somebody who has time for you and listens or to someone who's obsessed with their ambitions and doesn't ever "have time" and never really cares about what you have to say?if anything, this thread helps you to cope with loneliness. no, going hermit will not make you more productive, it'll make you even more depressed.
what's the most satisfying type of 2D topdown combat? it seems like a bad perspective for combat.
>>550819214It's like a large Terraria world, give or take. Same 16x16 tile resolution and yeah, I have CPU culling and LOD but the latter is really just a debug feature, it's not needed in-game. Why would a vertex buffer be bad? I have only 1 draw call for the map renderer. Or well, 1 draw call per layer (I have 2).

How long do you think thr current indie slop market has left? Sentiments like picrel are starting to become more and more frequent. For now, they're still mostly fringe, but it's still rising even among normalfags. The problem is that I don't think the market will recover. Too many passion project devs have either been driven out economically or socially who won't be there anymore to fill the void and thus rebuild consumer trust.
>>550823897it will end next year when all the decade long indie passion projects finally come out.
>>550823495me too
guy who thinks he's going to make it big in the gaming industry while also having an issue with homos
>>550823897>The problem is that I don't think the market will recover.Not gonna happen. It's been shown to be too profitable in the past for people to stop trying. Just like Bitcoin will never drop below 10k again, since it went to below 10k and then to 100k people will always use that as a reference and buy it long before it gets to that point.You can thank Toby Fox, Notch and all other indie devs who became millionaires for now pulling the ladder after them.
>>550824341
>>550824395
>>550824341didn't stop Todd
Thinking you can make it big in the gaming industry while hating homos is like thinking you can make it big in american politics while hating Israel. Good luck!
are you saying gays are also a mafia or something
>>550824672>>550824341ruh roh
>>550824021But the market is systemically built to disadvantage said projects. I doubt they all have the same hype pull like Silksong did. And if they all will also bomb, then those devs will also leave. Which hardly leaves anybody.>>550824384I don't agree. Even in this thread we see massive shilling of "stop making passion projects and make disposable small scale slop games!". More and more devs are waking up to this, it's why all the industry vets are making slop too, like the Timesplitters guys who are makng some basic word game or some shit. Most devs will either give up, correctly assuming they won't be rewarded for their efforts, or give in and make slop while it's still hot. And once the slop market crumbles, there won't be anyone to fill the void. Legitimately delusional devs might survive but the problem is that their games are also too detached from general tastes and too niche, and thus they won't get the disgruntled audience.
>>550824728As someone with industry experience, you'll quickly find most of the people in the industry are either trans linux programmers or blue hair feminist 3d modelers etc.the vast majority of people who actually make a career out of gaming are well educated city folk with degrees, you can't just show up and throw a tantrum when you realize half your coworkers are libs or your project will crash and burn and you will never get hired again

>>550825109oh, just the typical minorities as an over represented majority bias. Nevermind then. But yeah, i have no interest in the west coast, NY, or any other rainbow hair watering hole.

I feel kinda bad about writing all my concepts and ideas in English even though it's not even my mother tongue but forcing myself to write in my native language just seems awkward and makes it more difficult than it has to be, I hate it
>open studio in midwest>hire only straight whites and blacks>tada!
>>550824838Okay let me give you a different counter-argument. I am working on a passion project, so for me it would be IDEAL for the market to crash under the weight of endless slop before I release my game, because everyone will flock to my game after seeing the love and passion poured into it, journalists will have headlines with "indie games are still alive!" and so on.BUT, the universe is against me so this will NEVER happen. I rest my case.
>>550825323>Nevermind then. But yeah, i have no interest in the west coast, NY, or any other rainbow hair watering hole.Ironically, my first AAA experience was working at Avalanche in Utah. Surprise surprise, my coworkers were girls and gays.>>550825395I'm sure there are millions of highly skilled computer programmers and artists in... South Dakota

>>550825645dei digger hire xD
>>550825645arguing about what is and what isn't "the midwest" is an american past time almost as old and sacred as being racist

>>550825737Nobody is opening a game studio in Meeteetse, Wyoming. It's not because there's a difference in quality of people, it's because people who work at a computer desk all day move away from the country side into suburbs and apartmentsListen man if you want to purposefully be obtuse then by all means, go ahead and open your gaming company out in the midwest.>>550825645>>550825887
Guys I think Gabe wants to personally see me.Anyone going to attend the steam conference?
>>550825917>as defined by the (((census bureau)))Nobody in South Dakota says they live in the Midwest.
This might be the most retarded argument I've ever seen in this general
>>550825917>Listen man if you want to purposefully be obtuse then by all means, go ahead and open your gaming company out in the midwest.The heart of american technology and video games used to be in Texas of all places.You're being weird.
>>550822860>LOD>chunkingit's completely useless to have lod and it's completely useless to have chunking if your map is finite / small enough to fit in memory and vertex buffers only offer you extra bloat data. your entire tilemap doesn't need more than 6 vertices to form a single large quad, but you have a quad per tile and probably a couple of millions of tiles total, see the issue? the way to do it properly is to represent your tilemap on the cpu as an unsigned integer array and 16 bits is likely plenty enough as it gives you 65535 different tile types and on the gpu side of thing this can just be represented as an integer texture which you use for lookup and then you do all the actual drawing in a fragment shader. no need for chunking, no need for lod, use the hardware like it was intended.
The metro areas of Chicago, Detroit, and Cleveland have extremely low latency connections to the East Coast and cheap office space.

Well all my problems with faggots are on the individual level (yes, I know they are all like that), and the nice colored boys from Maryland had my back down range.

The /agdg/ general must purge fascist rhetoric: it's not censorship, it is a restoration of its intellectual space. This denazification is a moral hygiene: removing dehumanizing symbols that corrode collaboration, rehabilitating an atmosphere where creativity and genuine dissent can breathe.Moderation must be methodical, guided by transparent norms and consistent enforcement. Community engagement is essential; guidelines should be collaboratively calibrated and paired with education on why such content harms.Use a proportional toolkit: targeted removals, contextual warnings, and a fair appeals process. Decisions must be justified, upholding intellect over incitement.This is a commitment to /agdg/’s future - a hub of technical excellence and ethical reflection where pluralism, trust, and humane curiosity allow artistry to thrive.
