>father is quite bright.>gets paid to tell people 20x smarter than me how to do things correctly.>also gets paid to lecture at retreats for obnoxious intellectual faggots.>he just watches reruns of old movies 24/7 at home, entertaining these intellectuals just enough to keep the lights on, and not working on anything a picosecond longer than necessary.>despite this, doesn't decay one bit and can pick up a modern instructional textbook written within his field and send in corrections to the author.it's so absurd. especially now around christmas time, when distinguished people from different countries send him fruit baskets & letters. i'm looking at a card from a chinese engineer that my father lectured to when i was a baby, who still looks up to him enough to think of him at christmas time.meanwhile, me, his progeny, can barely write python without a handler. just an autistic retard. why is DNA (God's Code) so inefficiently written? shouldn't i have inherited half of his intellectual potential, at least? am i even his son?am i going to show him my shitty game? "i made this, what do you think?" the absolute hubris. i can already see him staring at it absentmindedly in my mind's eye. it's so fucking over. gamedev is a secret i'll keep to the grave.

>>551340936Sometimes I think of that feeling you get when you remember that one hobby you used to care about, put down, and never went anywhere with even though it used to mean the world to you. Knowing that's what's gonna happen when I stop being hands to keyboard usually kicks me in the ass.
>>551341158They really should up the price to $1000 for at least the first submission from a dev. It’s just too easy for third worlders to come up with $100 now.
>calls gabe a scammer>calls zukowksi a scammer>calls thomas brush a scammer>has no game and no reason to be concerned about any of these people to begin withWhat a tortured existence it must be to spend all your time seething about people who you haven't even earned the right to know about. A seething poser always on the attack, knowing he couldn't even cobble together a ball bouncing game with AI.Calling everyone a fraud except himself.

Pretty happy how this is looking.It scratches most of my tismo spots.:D
>>551339705>>he just watches reruns of old movies 24/7 at homeThe guy must also be a gigantic autist, no one normal watches the same movies over and over and over as their hobby. What would a smart person even get out of seeing the same scenes again and again?
Happy christmas
>>551341659Merry crismas
big things coming in 2026
Around 100 games release on Steam alone EACH DAY.About 700 games in the week around your release.AAA release? Successful release AAA or indie, in your genre? BOOM you are done.Also, not only are you competing with other new releases, but the entire backlog of games on every system a player owns. :)Take all the "indie success stories" you can think of in the past 10 years and divide it by the number of devs in that time who have tried (again, 100 games a day, 3000 a month) and there's your historical likelihood of "making it."Steam cut, higher self-employment taxes, no benefits, no retirement, AND to top it all off: Your sales diminish over time, so even if you hit this "mediocrity lottery" you'll have to do it all over again in a couple years.>He thinks that indie gamedev can provide a sustainable primary income in 2025HahahahahaH O B B YOBBY
>>551342098>A seething poser always on the attack, knowing he couldn't even cobble together a ball bouncing game with AI.>Calling everyone a fraud except himself.
>>551342093>He thinks that indie gamedev can provide a sustainable primary income in 2025It won't have to, it'll be 2026 soon :)
How many demos are you releasing on Demo Day? I haven’t decided if I’m doing 2 or 3 yet.
>>551341947you are brown
>>551342093Why worry about income when with the power of AI we will all be made rich?
>>551341947
oops, steam is down!guess steamies ain't buying or playing your game anymore, indie dev!thanks for the $100 suckas!
now that i've actually made a couple of assets myself i've unlocked a new fear:spending my original assets on a conceptual flop of a game.this fear smolders at first, but grows with each asset i make. imagine spending ALL this effort on the models, and then sharting the actual game part? i COULD flip them into new games until i make a good game, but by then i'd be known as an "asset flipper" (mark of doom).i understand now why there are so many artists who make small demo games just to showcase their models and shit but never make an actual real game. the absolute BALLS required to actually SPEND these hard made assets is immeasurable.
>>551342093>Incentivised by profitThat's the first mistake. And if you think your game isn't able to compete with the tons of slop content releasing every day, you were never gunna make it to begin with.>you'll have to do it all over again in a couple yearsThere it is. You just stumbled upon the whole point.
>>551341947>this ought to kill agdg for goodProbably yeah.
>>551342789Simple. Prototype first. If prototype is fun, continue. Assets won't make an unfun game magically fun.
>>551342789>then i'd be known as an "asset flipper" (mark of doom)
If game devlopment is even profitable, why is it so deterministically possible to even go? That’s what I don’t get/
>>551342920>>551342609>>551342308>there are still newfags in fucking 2026 replying to the "100 games release every day" pastaGrim.
>>551343246forgotten within a week
>>551343265Games on Steam sell for money. Make games is possible to get money from Steam, if games make money. Don’t you even?
>>551343268I only reply because some people actually still believe this. This could help someone who is struggling with determination.
I'm driving home to see my family, so I probably won't be online much until the new year. I hope you all have/are having a wonderful Christmas, and I'll see you all in 2026! I can't wait to share what I've been working on with you guys.
>>551343423>>551343265Within development is another square. You have to reach deeper for it. Building it is possible, it’s easier if you un be yourself.
>even steamworks is down right now, you can't access the dev panel eitherYour hard-earned 30% at work! Couldn't even withstand Christmas traffic kek.
>>551343640you too eric
>>551342789I sell a few assets on the Unity store, my biggest fear is that someone will use those assets, especially the art assets, and get an award for art.I only get around $150-200usd per month through asset sales, but if someone is winning awards with my assets they'll be making millions of dollars per month.
How can am myself to improve at the design of characters? I just will to stop giving care. Am done.
>>551343745Valve is one of the most profitable corporations in the world and they could easily upgrade their infrastructure so steam doesn't go down all the time but that'd cut into gabey boy's yacht fund.
>>551343873haha, I'm not Eric. Sorry, it wasn't my intent to come off that way. I'm just lurker who finally managed to get away from the distractions of this thread for a bit until I actually had a functional demo that doesn't look like (complete) shit. You'll see shortly.
>>551344180haha, sure thing, silly me haha
>>551343973>>551343423You are non-developers without pong even. Why do post here?
>>551343394Wrong, and even if it were true, who cares? Indies aren't trying to make a timeless classic, that's your nodev delusions.
>>551344386Fat fuck gaben fault. AI luddites review badly my game. Zuk teach me wing biggly but no work.
>>551344627Big win for gaming AI chads and Steam heads. You have a solid floor.
>he's running chatbots againHere's the very predictable holiday meltie. Not only is in he spending christmas in agdg shitposting but he doesn't even have a game. The realization of this is too much for him to bear so he must lash out. And now we observe.
Luddites taking Ls
Melties use scripts to post, shame the nodevs biggly. AI chads winning, much Christmas everyone.
all i want for christmas isin discord
>>551344991Also v/3/ is happening today that's enough cause for a meltie in itself. Don't forget the week long gore spamming meltie this year came immediately after he lost an argument with Betz in front of everyone.
>>551345193Impressionable children?
>see aggy post.this guy would do well if he had an artist and a game designer.>see another aggy post.this guy would do well if he had a programmer and a game designer>see yet another aggy post.this guy would do well if he had an artist and a programmer.some year aggy is going to re-discover 3 men making a game together, and why that happened for a reason.2025 was not that year.
>>551345343i will impression your face with my fist
Gabe Newell is excessively rotund. He has absconded with 30% of my money. His decisions regarding the algorithm have destroyed my chances of being a millionaire.

>>551345087I'm gonna jerk off to this
>>551346072What the hell are "river tools"?This has to be bait.
Where's the /v3 link? Are those fuckers stalling to cancel again?
trying to get all the enemy systems working together by DD. the enemies are going to be a robot swat team, with biped, drones and boston dynamics dogs. the combat is slower than my previous game roek but i don't know how fast it should be for a game like this.
Merry Christmas everyone!May you all have a wonderful time this day! Let's keep moving forward, one step at a time!

Jan 1 2026I begin my gamedev journeyDec 31 2026I post $100k+ profit
>>551350492lol where do you guys come up with this stuff!?
I don't want to include monsters, because the idea is that waifus are monsters that you can summon.But.I don't know what to do.The idea I have, more or less, is that it's like a battle royale where the girls fight with the ones they dislike first, and then when there are only 100% friends left, they decide to beat each other up.In the end, the MC fucks the ones who are knocked out.
i can't work with gimp, krita, affinity or whatever photoshop alternative. in photoshop i just get shit done fast.
>>551351618>My game needs to have violent sexual assault that's cool with you guys right this is 4chan and we are all wacky criminal scumbags who want to wape right Stop it cris. You're better than this.

>>55135341680% of posts on 4chan are bots
Okay, so if we make the girls in my game compete like the idolmasters in that webm, then they'll all be super cute and wtf moe, but they'll have to beat each other up, because they're like goddess spirits captured in cards to entertain fat virgins in a gladiator-style fighting simulator?
>>551352013>>551353327RAYLIB MENTIONED
Has cristobal ever done a demoday? I would love to play something he made.
>>551354085isnt the raylib guy an idiot who thinks just because he made a wrapper around some graphics and windows apis people should hire him and hes broke or something from brazil, i saw him tweet that no one with AI also did any free work for him sending in pull requests and shit, give it a few years and the ego will reach critical point and he'll go on a big melty
>>551353950no hate but do you ever get existential dread knowing that this project will inevitably get shelved like all your others?
>>551354484https://ca3gamedev.itch.io/suburbian-champions-2>>551354710It helps to cope to realize that 99.9999% of all games ever made will be forgotten.

Also, Ray is doing fine off of donations, I know plenty of people who basically resell his code as their own thanks to the MIT license. He’s from Chile or Argentina or something.

Pause menu and a little move list reference Idea. I'm debating whether I should only list things that require special inputs. Also my actual programmer brother came over and helped me set up a salted hash save system. it's probably overkill but I'll take it.>>551349036Merry Christmas
If i share my narrative analysis and game QA portfolio here, how would you guys react to it? Will you collab with me?
>>551356761Yes but didn't he go on a big crying spree some time ago that no one wanted to donate or whatever
