>>551835735>that consolidation effectAs I feared and knew would happen to gamedev but now others are noticing.>the big companies stay up top>the indies, big and small have approx. 15 years to establish themselves (~2005 to ~2020)You can be a terrible gamedev but if you get big early on, then you have an established fanbase of 10s of thousands watching whatever you drop. Then there were the ones who made one game and kept upgrading it into perpetuity this locking out any competition. Terraria, Stardew Valley, Project Zomboid, Among Us, Dead by Daylight, Don't Starve, etc. How do you compete in genre's where the biggest indie games have years of nonstop updates? Exactly. Reaching parity to what these games were when they had just released is simply not enough, the crowds will certainly say "X has A, B, C, D, E, F...., your game Y only has A. Why would I buy it?" Despite that being what game X had at the start and it succeeded anyways.
Gabencunt has took his pay....
>>551913394>you have an established fanbase of 10s of thousandsPure delusional cope. Game devs are not movie stars. No one plays a game just because it was made by a dev they've played a game from before. Look at Cuffbust, and get ready for Blow to kill himself when he gets busted.
>>551913302Is that a LOTR frame in the back? dare I say based?
>>551913676>No one plays a game just because it was made by a dev they've played a game from before.David Scymanzki, ConcernedApe (unironically), that furry mouse game by the Shovel knight devs, Psycho Patrol R, I could go on.It also works retroactively. The devs of Miside had made many more games before Miside, and their older games experienced a bump in reviews and sales after Miside became a hit.
>>551913676Puppet Combo and David Scymanzski come to mindBennet Foddy too but to a lesser extent
>>551913165>noooo I wasn't able to make my shitpost OP in time noooooxisters just keep losing
>>551914078>>551914284Correlation does not imply causation, retard. The underlying factor that connects subsequent successes is SKILL, not fame. Obviously, developers who have spent a lot of time and effort developing a previously successful game will have a higher than average skill level than developers who haven't, and that high skill level results in a better game, which is really what games want: better games. Counterexample would be danidev and Megabonk.>inb4 some delusional cope about nepobaby connections blah blah
Gabencunt say:USE AI
negativenancysisters... our response?
>>551914674Nah.Iron Lung, Gloomwood, Dusk and Butcher's Creek couldn't be further from each other in terms of quality and scope.But they all sold well because Szymanski's name was on them.
>>551913302That forward lean reminds me of guards searching for you in Thief
>>551913394>You can be a terrible gamedev but if you get big early on, then you have an established fanbase of 10s of thousands watching whatever you drop.Okay but you also make tens of millions of dollars already if you are that big so who cares. Why are you concerned with the top 0.01% of the indie game developers and acting like there still isn't a chance for everyone else. Pathetic mentality really. I just don't understand you guys who sit around theory crafting ways that gamedev is hopeless for you. Keep that mental illness to yourself.
>>551914775I will NOT let the goth girls penetrate me

>>551915357Now erase all the games they were released before 2018 because that's when Dusk was released and he became well known.You're really dumb anon and I'm sure you think you're high IQ too.
>>551915252>Blow's sokoban game will still sell more than whatever your game will,Perhaps, but I do intend to compete and be at least in the same ballpark. I can see sokoblow very easily ending up like Cuffbust, especially if he prices it at $40 like the Witness. Meanwhile, I'll be a reasonable Steamie and price my game at $5-10>>551915516Sorry, I forgot you were brown. I was thinking in first world numbers.
>>551915637>14k salesPony factory didn't even do that badly considering it's only $3.99 and it's a 20 minute meme game.
>>551915864>>551916130Y'all keep talking about a dev with decades of experience consistently releasing games as if skill-wise /agdg/ nodevs are on the same level.
>>551916375I'm saying his name is what matters. None of his projects are what I would call "high skill" besides maybe Gloomwood. They're PSX horror games. There are thousands of them on itch.People even buy shit he has barely anything to do with like the DreadX Collection games.
>>551915252>Blow's sokoban game will still sell more than whatever your game willWHO CARES? Why are you such a cvck? It's a good thing being such a massive cvck helps weed people like you with your high selection for jealousy traits out of the gene pool that way my future children won't have to work with you.

Game can now load in an opposing team on the map, save them to the Team2 slot and spawn them in in the next level.This took me hours to figure out because I had to figure out that a game save object won't be the same on two different blueprints even if they're using the same save slot. . .

Anons, How do you handle your save files?Right now I have a GameData class and turn it into json and then encrypt it before saving to the disk. It's a mobile game so there isn't crazy mount of data to be saved. The encryption is to just make it non human readable and have a layer of security.I'm also thinking of adding some sort of meta data (if it can be called that). I will haveclass SaveData{MetaGameData metaGameData;GameData gameData;}So if something about the way I save game data changes it will be detected through the information inside MetaGameData class. I thought maybe I'd need a versioning system. With json it doesn't need it I guess but if I use binary format directly I thought it would be needed. Also if I change variable names json would not find the previous variable, this way I can check it and make sure the data isn't lost. (eg. If I change the variable int score to int scoreNewName).
>>551926391https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fr6v70BkU1s
>>551926391I think you're doing too much object orientation and abstractions. For me I just have a global struct with all the data that needs to be saved (not everything has to be saved obviously) and a few functions that save that data piece by piece. Your saved data won't be much if you're making a simple game so I don't name the data in the save file, it's just text.Like instead of saving a json that says {score: 50}, I just write "50" to a text file and my load function figures out that it belongs to the score.
>>551926954that sounds retarded
>>551927274It is, but atleast it's simple.
>>551926391>>551926954spend an afternoon learning binary files and save yourself the hassle later, when your jsons suddenly stop scaling and you have 30 second load times.
>>551926954I don't get how your code sees "50" and figures out it' meant to be for "score".All the variables in GameData class are the things needed to be saved.
>>551928094implicit positional encoding
>>551928094It's based on the order of what it sees.My load function is basically just:global.score = get_next_integer(file)global.whatever = get_next_something(file)and so on.It's stupid, but with error checking there's not much that can go wrong.
>>551927872Long time ago I checked .net library and it had things like binary versioning. I read and read and I remember being confused even more because if I remember correctly, it;'s something that's meant to reduce complexity, but it also added other form of complexity which made a net zero.The data won't get big it's a mobile game and it has things like stats, score, money etc. but I want to be cautious because it's going to be released and will have inapp purchasing etc. and I don't want people's save files to be ruined somehow because of something I couldn't foresee.
>>551925056dwarven dogs furry hybrid
>>551928334It sounds very prone to errors. How can you even do error checking? If you already keep data as strings why not put a name in it too. Oh because the name can change? Order of things can change too and it sound like a more sensitive issue to me. But I don't know.

Any advice on programming equipment slots for an RPG? I thought something like getting doing an Dictionary, using strings for bodyparts as keys, maybe getting fancy making an enum for it. But what if I want a special creature with 10 Arms? Or am I just overthinking it? I'll just do it with an enum now, but I'd be curious how you guys would approach that issue.
>>551928865could go even simpler with just an array of Equipment_Slot structs
>>551928814>How can you even do error checkingThe get_next_whatever functions can give back errors if they don't get what's expected.>Oh because the name can change?Yes, but also because I'm using C and it's not powerful enough to introspect on variable names.
>>551926603Thank you. I'm glad to learn that my question is a valid issue. Lol I think I might have gotten that versioning idea from watching this video.>>551928334Okay, what Jon says about order of variables based on version aligns with what you said, I think I get what you mean now.
>>551928334what could be the possible justification for this. just write score:. you're writing 1000 times more text a day on agdg. i'd argue nothing is sacrificed. in fact legibility goes up.
>>551929235See >>551929147>I'm using C and it's not powerful enough to introspect on variable names.I know I could just use a json library but I got too lazy...

>>551931370Then why are you asking and not doing it in the simplest way possible and leave future compatibility issues that you will probably not run into because it's just a mind masturbation thing up to then?

I have almos similar question to this anons >>551928865What if I use dictionary of enum-integer for character STATS?
>>551931787You only gave an example to save, there wouldn't be a way to load based off of runtime strings into actual C variables. I think your suggestion is good of saving a name, it's good for error checking. But I can't actually load it from the name.
>>551932409Generalize for the common case and then program the exceptions in manually. Using a dictionary instead of something fixed does leave you free to add more later so that's fine. Guys stop overthinking things, just make it work first, you'll probably rewrite it or want to rewrite it later and don't do so anyways.
>>551930938I did it for the first time in 1999, I played video games in school back then>>551932380>Tibiabased
>>551932596That's why you have a mapped str to var ptr table that you prepare before in an initialization step. Either with brute force loop or hash table or any other means. I didn't want to type out the whole deserialize functor too sis.
Do you think I would catch some flack if I made characters that were Islamic but changed the name of their God?
>>551932920That sounds good, but the pointers would all have to be the same type. If I understand what you're saying correctly, the variable names serialized would map to a variable pointer, but you might have C variables of different types. This would complicate this system alot. What do you think?
>>551933848That's not what you asked for though but then you would move more towards a factory pattern design
>>551933848NTA, and I haven't been following this whole exchange, but if you're looking to serialize/deserialize a fixed length data struct in C/C++, you can just create a union of your data struct and a uint8_t array of length sizeof(data_struct).

>>551934257I think atleast in my "system" of manually writing code to save and load everything is that you can save/load data of any type and structure. I appreciate the discussion tho and it gave me new ideas.>>551934478It would be that simple if not for padding bytes.
>>551934751>My Winter Car>E33>Deadlock>Ark Raiders>That AI Vampire Survivor's clone which got hundreds of reviewsBad year for artoids ngl.
>>551935532>It would be that simple if not for padding bytes.Why? You can just align them or use #pragma pack(push, 1)They only matter when you care about having garbage data in your output but even then it's a nothingburger. You can just do a memset before too. There's only two actual issues, memory boundary alignment which you can just doaligned = (ptr + (N - 1)) & ~(N - 1);and endianness but that's a thing of the past and most things you're writing for are little endian.

why does a game released 47 years ago have perfect razor sharp shadows at 0 performance cost, yet godot has a blurry mess that eats gigabytes of vram and cuts your fps in half?

>>551948518
It's official I started a much smaller scope slop project
>>551949653if its slop will you use AI?
>>551949554Chat, am I cooked
>it doesn't work
>we still talk about you, you know...
>>551949791https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JMd9hayzMxNWBRvj2RsNY9AGSAaiw2Nr/view?usp=sharingFrom my indie anime RPG Bloodmoon
>>551949791honestly, I still remember concept art that you uncover in Mortal Kombat 9 by exploring the crypt. and that was supposed to be professional graphics... you have nothing to be ashamed of, anon.
>>551949653The scope is getting increasingly smaller and yet the games don't get increasingly finisheder
>>551949732Only for code. I'm too particular when it comes to art
What’s your excuse?
Lidar
>>551950357>What’s your excuse?
>>551950357nice, I am going to play lotto too.
>>551950423Woah
>>551950178I finally figured out a small more arcade style game that I have a genuine interest in making and has higher gmi potential. My other project is a passion project that I know is going to take a long time and likely ngmi but fine because I just want to make itit'll be different this time I swear.. frfr
>>551950423It looks cool, but LIDAR is a scanning laser. Imagine the terrain being revealed in a scan from the top to the bottom of the screen. Maybe give it a fantasy technology name.
>>551950357i cant identify with that the colossal fucking retard that is the modern game would buy
>>551950141Last time, I only posted my title screen. The character creation system still has a gender glitch but I'm working on it
>>551950357gamedev is not a real job. a real job makes minimum wage, gamedev can make you rich.
>>551950423unironically beautifulkeep it up anon
>>551950945I feel bad for you. I’m not even going to engage. I’m sorry you’re poor. The NAZIs are trying to fix this problem.
i have a new strategy to navigate youtube. instead of trying to find something interesting, i pick one of the choices i have and choose the most interesting one. and then i just keep going through related videos.maybe it's something related to the psychology of "pick 1 of 3 upgrades" in bullet hell games.
>>551950423how did you make the textured terrain?
>>551950423Lidar moves at the speed of light though
>>551951273>his new strategy is to let the algorithm do it’s job>how has anyone never thought of this before
>>551949554>>551949791Edgy characters are surprisingly difficult to get right. I think an important part is for the character to not be saying "look how cool I am"First character looks self serious and on a mission. Very cool.Second character looks like he's grinning for the photo. Kinda gay.
a game where you have sex with little girls
>>551951273Retard
>>551950357how much do we wanna bet his next game won't sell at least half of that?
>>551951379Light moves at the speed of light. LIDAR uses motors and lasers to scan the objects with light. The movement of the laser across a surface does not happen at the speed of light.
Can I start my game yet or do I need one more year of art?https://litter.catbox.moe/kzberoc2c2f1sdfm.jpg
>>551950423Damn there's a lot going on with those light pulses. Looks incredible.
>>551951692Who cares?. He’s 23, if he’s smart he invests that money, keeps working, and he’s set. Poor people’s mentality, they think all the money just disappears after they make it.
does anybody know how to make a 3d skybox like in source engine, in godot
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>551951348it's all just hand drawn 2D tilesets with normal maps on themI draw the normal maps by hand too for some of the stuff
>>551951783
>>551951783Monkey brain neurons activated. You're ready.
I have so many ideas but I have no idea what I should work on>Psykio style boss rush shooter>Klonoa/Ninja Gaiden hybrid platform action game>Gimmick! like platformer with an emphasis on combat and enemy design>TGM/Puyo style puzzle game>OutZone style danmaku run n gunBefore anyone says anything I'm not an idea guy. I have a couple completed projects under my belt.
>>551951992good shit anon
>>551952081same... same...
>>551951992Surprise surprise. The same way every game has done it since SNES. Looks really good man.
>>551952081klonoa like
>>551950423>>551951992Insane work as always. How do you make the UI glow like that? and what resolution do you make everything at
>>551952548Wdym specifically with the UI glow?Resolution is 480x270
>>551950423>>551951992I HATE YOUUUUU
>>551953539will you be the new i will surpass you poster
>>551953591shutup, i have a game you dont
If you have trite Simon Says boss fights in your game, delete it and start over.>b-but I have to, they are a staple in the medium!>b-but where would the difficulty be??Pic related. Carry the baton further now. We're done with slop like that already. Shit is more stale than an 80s hair metal "face melter" guitar solo. Nobody wants to hear that shit anymore.
>>551953591no i just feel like that sometimes
>>551953806Games are primarily marketed for children. Grow up.
I don't know if I'll make it for demo day; I spent all the time since the last one making small improvements and trying to nail down a story and aesthetic so I'm not Nortubel 2 anymore.
>>551954274who are you retard
>>551953001The way the top left health/ammo bar does that breathing/scrolling glow
>>551954483What the fuck dude? He either animated it or it’s a shader. This isn’t magic.
>>551954413hes the guy that wanted to make a snoot game equivalent for nortubel before he got ptsd from nortubel's... how do we say?
>>551954483the UI shader does like a psuedo scanline type thing. I brighten by the UV y coordinate the sin of elapsed timefloat brightness = (sin((IN.uv.y + _UnscaledTime * _TScale) * _MainTex_TexelSize.w / _Scale) * _Intensity + _Brightness + _Intensity) / 2
If you want shit to “glow” you just use the blur tool over a transparent layer and show it on a dark background. If you don’t want to animate that by hand, your write a shader to do the same exact thing you would have done manually in Photoshop or Aseprite.
>>551954989didn't ask + ratio
>>551953806>look at me I have strong opinionsYeah you should make a game like that then.
>>551955350why dont you
cmon bruh the food aint that good
>>551955494!Streamerslopper Alert!
>>551955350The nodev pedo janny thinks this thread is his personal playground. If you start questioning his posts, he’ll start compiling a list of yours to hold against you in the future.
>>551954413It's in the filename, unless your question was a rhetorical meant to remind me not to lose my way in the face of external pressure, like Kamina saying, "grit your teeth!" before administering some tough love to the face, an appeal through the strange yet compelling flow toward the abstract ideal of manliness that we must all reach like a salmon earning its scars, only to heroically serve itself up in the end like a sunflower holding its burdened head high in a silent howl of love for life itself which it finds again and again through death and reincarnation.>>551954872What? no. Someone said my game looked like Nortubel, and right after someone said it looked like Platform Masters, and I was like ZETSUBOU SHI-TAAAAAA~ so I've been trying to improve the aesthetic.
hagdevs, how do we defeat the lolidevs?

it's illegal to show demo builds or trailers with copyrighted placeholder music right?

>>551955350Oh sorry, I'm just a seething faggot with no skills other than being pretty good at seething. If even a single dev saw my post and it caused them to think about game design for even a nanosecond, my job is done.

Wrong-ish thread but:Is Fear & Hunger removed from Steam or is it something about my settings? I do have some settings to filter pornslop but I can't find it through search either.
>>551959414No that's just Joshua
>>551959397every single character in the game is based on a meme, a lot from before the dev was even born (zoomers lmao), hell the entire gameplay is based on a meme from a children's game

>>551959472https://store.steampowered.com/app/1002300/Fear__Hunger/It's still there, you probably just have a filter on that blocks it. The game is tagged "sexual content" so that's probably it.

>IIII RECOGNIZE THAT PIIICTUUURE>*runs to the archive*Makes me laugh everytime.
Look at this dawg
>>551956460Devs back then were passionate about making really good games that pushed boundaries and new ideas and the industry and technology was in a growing state that had a lot of room for experimentationBut now the industry is too massive to gamble money on new ideas and so much has been done already it's harder to break new ground so devs default into making safe marketable sloppa
>>551960349*blocks your path*
>>551960349>Devs back then were passionate about making really good games that pushed boundaries and new ideas and the industry and technology was in a growing state that had a lot of room for experimentationThe exact opposite of streamerslopbitesdev, he is making the least effort slop that will appeal to the most retarded of retards
I added control characters to my dialogue system.Basically just some syntax to do things like add pauses into the dialogue, trigger a certain animation to play, or change the idle animation in sync with the dialogue being typed into the box.
>>551960334Now I just use the Leo Pong meme to call him out, so if he does that again, it is just a screenshot of me talking shit on him over the course of a week.
>>551957880>*bodyslams you*
>>551956460AAA devs back then were closer to indie devs today, look at the size of the teams involved. Industry's just bloated, same as everything else really.
>>551960756unc
Hey little nigga, you know that calling someone “unc” is a sign of respect in that culture, right? Like an unc ain’t a G, but you still respect him because he’s older and wiser.
>>551960535>how can I make this another seethepost Reminder guns and nuns reached top of trending demos on steam!
>>551960993gun and nun is boomercore so it gets a pass zoomer
>>551960532That's an indie game, which I was about to say: that's where indie games come inWe (usually) don't have millions and billions invested in our projects by publishers so we can make wacky stupid cool shit without the fear of losing that profit. Other than the time investment lost but we don't have to worry about a massive company going under>>551960535His game looks far more interesting than those fucking literal slot machine games being pumped out
>>551960589Nice. I only have pauses. tempted to add animation triggers now...
>>551961120>his game looks better than literal poopso what?
>>551961120Not everything has been done, there are still plenty of ideas, just not enough for people to form companies around, yeah. Would be nice to see more indie teams thoughevermost
>>551961120>fucking literal slot machine games being pumped outAside from Balatro, are you referring to Vampire Survivors clones?
>>551961120>His game looks far more interesting than those fucking literal slot machine games being pumped outOne Armed Bandit is a hidden /agdg/ gem.
>>551961063Hmm okay then. Don't worry I will find a way to extract more seethe from you.
>>551961486i accept your concession
>>551961446How did he manage to do that?Is Steam really as bad as people keep saying?
Me, I’m a G. Talk shit, and I’ll hype your game up, offer to publish it, get the exclusive rights, then I’ll fucking axe it. You’ll walk away with nothing but wasted time.
Someone post the game announced that is ripping off Wasteland Bites. Proof enough right there that he is on a goldmine.
>>551961558>Is Steam really as bad as people keep saying?No. I don't know how this thread is so misinformed but you'd literally know more about the indie games coming out by watching vtubers.
Why are y'all so hyper active and schizo for no reason? You make me think of /trash/ posters.
>>551961683yeah bro just like how infinitminer make a lot of money after minecraft ripped it off
>>551961763We are staying up late and eating lots of sugar.
I've been using Gamemaker for years but I want to tackle a 3D game. Which engine is the least troublesome to optimize performance in? Asking because I have heard from friends that certain engines almost fight against you when you try to tone default graphics down.
>>551961325I mostly mean stuff like thishttps://store.steampowered.com/app/3314790/CloverPit/
>>551961902godot
>>551961446>can't solo dev>wants to catch a free ride "working" on a game with a team >blames Papa G
>>551961763There is 0 degrees of separation between /vg/ and /trash/. Almost like moot was right about this place.
>>551962104>mootunc moment
>>551961902That's just a skill issue. All the big engines are fine, and performance is the last thing you should be worrying about. Godot starts off with every expensive feature disabled and you have to enabled them yourself, while Unreal starts you off with every expensive feature enabled and you have to disable them yourself.
>>551961558>How did he manage to do that?Like this.
>>551960085>everyone who ever posts the same image more than once is zukjeetI'm offended. I only post this guy because he makes you shitted your pants each time.

>>551962371stop posting that fucking weirdo
>>551959247Just ate and fixed it. Problem with release function on Windows. Everything is working well except for the unicode text. I'll fix later. The whole point was to have a working cross-platform arena.

What are you talking about, he uploads a new screenshot of a bunch of white boxes in a Godot window every day?
>>551962218How does that stop people from forming indie dev teams

What engine should I choose for an RTS?
His idea of gamedev is the type of shit I would make in Excel with VBA while I was supposed to be working.

>>551963259didn't ask
>>551963242UrsinaEngine
>>551961726Why do you think anon is always crying about ecelebs. They are legitimately on topic about gamedev stuff and have real information.
>>551963128Concentrated shilling of the idea(s) "you're better off working alone, rev share is always bad etc. etc.". It has been successful.Go on any gamedev forum and you'll see even people with actual skills shunned for suggesting revshare.Or go ahead and try asking someone from here or on /v/ for a collab. It won't go well. They'll ask you to pay a salary (which of course you won't have as an indie dev yourself) and not accept anything else.
>>551963421No, it’s not on topic. That’s game marketing, this thread is for game development.
>>551958326>>551962713Okay now that is actually working. I'm going to wait on that heartfelt apology. I'll check the thread again after work. I have to get ready.Here is the fixed code, should be most recent commithttps://codeberg.org/FroggyGreen/tae>>551963259I like SeraphYuki. I remember when I first saw ZIM posted here and the 3DS tools seem cool.

>>551963641thank you. the 3ds was the coolest :3 wish i could do more consoledev
>>551963580>That’s game marketingYou mean youtube grifting? Have you seen what this guy posts? It's literally the same shit as "just make a good game that people want to play", just worded a little differently every time.
I made Logic Bombs.
>>551963580>No, it’s not on topic. That’s game marketing, this thread is for game development.Good thing he tells you what GAMES are best to DEVELOP and talks about things the GAME DEVELOPERS are doing to succeed huh. Almost sounds GAME DEVELOPMENT related to me dontcha think?
>>551963807If true, why are you wasting your time in this madhouse?
I made Truth Nukes
>>551963892If his advice is so good where is your game?
>>551963797No, the only game development YouTube content I watch is ExtraCredits, because it actually goes into detail about game design and logic.
>>551963660>Wasteland BitesIt's like Five Knights at Freddie's, but with actual gameplay? Nice.
>>551963892Nope. That’s marketing. Game development refers to the technical endeavor. Even in the smallest studios, the marketing and development departments are separate entities.
>>551963943John Blow ended my career, so now I'm back here.

So...? Where are they???
>>551963550Personally I think they'd be better off starting companies the old school way, hiring through professional mediums or perhaps being close IRL friends.
>>551963660>They have a little window where JPEGs of AI generated creepypasta pics floats on a cardboard cutout lmaoAnd by they I mean "Retail Hell", whereas Wasteland has a full animated world where the monsters are in play on all sides and they aren't AI generated PNGs they are actual original artwork. WB blows the imposter away.
>>551964370Their space got invaded by transgenders so they all quit.
Your move, chucklenuts.
>>551964463>Your move, chucklenuts.
>>551964176I guess you don't think game design is part of game development either. You want to pretend this general is for what exactly, engine development and figuring ways to make shaders for a game? Please.

>>551965059I don't have one, happy? But guess what I still win, because I am the gamer, the one who decides the fate of your game.
>>551964718No. Game design and development are intrinsically intertwined. Your design should dictate your development pattern, while the development limits the design.
>>551965262That's retarded, that's like driving till the car runs out of fuel, you will be stranded
>xe uses godot
>>551964962record myself playing for 1 hour, cut out the most exciting/flashy visuals and clip them together in the first 15 seconds as match cuts, then shift to a tiny narrative hook with some text, then normal gameplay for 30s and end on a giant monster screeching at the camera.
>>551965164>I don't have one, happy?
>>551965348No, you plan your trip out. Map out all the gas stations and problems you might run into. You said it was retarded, then constructed a strawman.
>One striking habit I see over and over among the most the successful devs is how many games they play. For their chosen genre, they play every obscure variant. They are like the Charles Darwin of games looking at every single evolutionary branch, analyzing why and how successful that decision was. TRVVVVKEReal devs PLAY GAMES
>>551963580While JLMG is important, it's only scratching the surface of gamedev. It's fine if you're still in that stage of your career, but don't just assume everyone here is.

Holy shit. now that is a game. >October 2023>I started finalizing the content plan for the 1.0 version of the game. The biggest addition is the inclusion of a sort of ‘ascension’ system. This is from Slay the Spire (see? Told you I’d steal from it) but I think it was a super cool way to add difficulty and give players a sort of checklist to work through.

I find it humorous that Fagtroon's only defense to me existing and posting here is to use my real name and go "HES A REDDITOR FELLOW ANON!" I know this isn't game posting but I just read that toonsouls thread and that's exactly what he did. Hope he gets off his ass to make that supposed v3 killer but I have a feeling I'll be here waiting awhile until it manifests.
Do streamers with more than 10 views even play obscure indie games unless it's horror? Seems like getting featured by a youtube channel is the only option for reaching out to steamers and tubers
>>551966248>/agdg/ anon is a dumb niggerYep. Checks out.
The jeet has been acting real uppity since it got btfo'd by the entire thread for trying to pass off that class-action lawsuit with Valve as non-existant. It was melting down hard when people started posting actual court documents related to the lawsuit.
>>551966170You're not supposed to crush their narratives like that...

>>551966106my memory is messed up. I swear it was balatro dev saying he didn't play sts because he didn't want to be influenced. maybe it was a different game...

>>551965821>>551966106>crab is not just wrong but literally as wrong as can beHappens all the time.
>>551966636*ok it was balatro, he did play sts 1.5 years in, just not any others. >In his development timeline, the anonymous developer says as of December 2021, he made a conscious effort not to play any more roguelike games starting from that point.>"I want to be crystal clear here and say that this was not because I thought it would result in a better game, this was because making games is my hobby, releasing them and making money from them is not, so naively exploring roguelike design (and especially deckbuilder design, since I had never played one before) was part of the fun for me. I wanted to make mistakes, I wanted to reinvent the wheel, I didn’t want to borrow tried-and-true designs from existing games. That likely would have resulted in a more tight game but it would have defeated the purpose of what I love about making games."

>>551966817I was right albeit. and not a crab.the very next line that nigga conveniently didn't greentext>Thank goodness I avoided playing it until now because I surely would have just copied their incredible design (intentionally or subconsciously).

>>551967747>He didn't play it but he did!Okay.
>>551967940He didn't play it before making balatro.
>>551967747Nigga you're arguing with a literal spamming jeet that just admitted it has no game. Just ignore and move on.
>>551963550Recently, FlyKnight and Healed to Death were successful collabs from here. Just because you're a low-skill loser, bring nothing to the table, and therefore never gets invited to anything doesn't mean that collabs don't happen.

>>551968195bing the witness
so these are the opponents of ai hmmm
>>551968068seems so.
>>551967093It's hard to explain this kind of thing. He fails to do it and misattributes it to his "hobby", an unexplained "conscious effort", or the lie that it wouldn't make his game better. Put simply, he already understood roguelikes deeply at a subconcious level due to having so much experience with them and he had reached the point at which he needed to rely on the Skill he had honed up to this point to make his art.
>so these are the opponents of ai hmmm
>>551967747Okay that does change things but I will continue to pretend anon beat you.
>>551967787Oh no no no >>551934751

>>551968057Even if we're going to accept that (which is basically just splitting hairs), LocalThunk did play other games to get the idea for Balatro, one of them being Luck Being A Lanlord (oh no no no no Aggy sisters) which just proves Zuk's whole argument.

>>551972774I was thinking about writing a long spiel on this at some point, but the long and short of it is that: if you feel like you need to be told exactly what to do in order to do something, a creative entrepreneurial endeavor like game development is not for you. You should go to school, get a degree, and work a wagie job.

there has been a time where people wanted to experience being some super hero or super soldier killing monsters, but those times are over. i don't even know what modern men want. sex is also satisfied by porn.i feel like what people want right now is real money and self-improvement, learning something that makes money. but video games can't provide that. i feel like this is the current shift.the other side is stimulation games that just soothe your mind with brainless stimulation, those games compete with tiktok and youtube though.

I think the takeway so far is that AI won
>>551974490The new captchas really intensify this. You get a dopamine hit everytime you solve these captchas now.
>>551975263Basically. Gamers obviously don't care and the only thing people who do care can do is review bomb games in hopes they can kill their reach. Its really pathetic I'm not going to lie.
>>551975263That’s because you’re retarded and you think AI is real. They’ve put a text generating algorithm and interpreter as front end to a bunch of other scripts and now we have “AI”. Once the boom ends, everyone is going to back to calling it machine learning.
>>551975263The takeaway is you lost and are living vicariously through AI since it will likely achieve things in the world while you will not.

God programming is so miserableHow does gamedev have so many programmers but so few modelers and artists?? That's the fun part innit?I'm forcing myself to learn C# cuz I want to solodev but it's quite boring I have to say, I'd rather be drawing concepts/promos, modeling (not rigging), making assets...
>>551978123You’re not learning how to program, you’re learning a language. An education in programming begins at first principles. That’s why it sucks, because you lack the prior knowledge to engage with C#.
>>551977519But it is. Why are you getting dopamine from kindergarten schoolwork like counting shapes and finding differences in patterns?
>>551978123Just make asset packs retard
>>551978123Gamedev is as short on good programmers as it is short on good artists. It's just easier to tell when an artist is bad.
>>551978271we get dopamine from everything we do, you are unaware of how the mind works
>>551978464IM KAWAII
>>551978123Most gamedevs are just copypasting code they find online. >>551978464True
>>551976781>If you're getting a dopamine hit from solving them that means you think you're smart for solving themYeah so like I said you're clearly a brainlet and couldn't comprehend what was being said. Carry on brainlet.
>>551978568>Most gamedevs are just copypasting code they find online.but I can't copy art and game designs, that's bullshit
>>551978701You literally can.
>>551978701Artists will kvetch if you use asset packs (or AI) but they are just a loud minority and its been shown time and time and time again gamers do not care if a game uses stock assets as long as it is fun.

if you make your game in an anime style it will most likely die. numerous japanese game devs have talked about how hard it is to appeal to people with a non-established series using an anime style. you are fighting an uphill battle if you choose to make an anime styled game

Every single generation of computing has had an “AI” can fix your problems boom. You are seeing the dying gasps of 64-bit computing, but you’re retarded and don’t understand 8-bit computing. It’s okay, everything is going to be okay.

codex mortis wonit fucking won....
Has anyone else noticed a massive influx of people online (especially /v/) policing others on their use of AI?A recent example I saw was someone on a /3/ showing an idea they had for a new character. They had thought of the abilities/lore themselves but used AI to generate concept art.And of course, there were a hundred anons chanting “AI Slop” until he deleted his post.Do people seriously expect others to pour dozens of hours into posts they will see once? The entire concept baffles me.
my to-do list is so long, I don't even know where to start.maybe I should have some of that banana and chocolate cake mom made.
