>>552805625Duncan Drummond surfaced in the official Deadlock Discord server to reveal he's working on the game.Almost a month after Risk of Rain studio Hopoo Games announced that it was joining Valve and halting work on an unannounced game, the studio's titular cofounder, Duncan "Hopoo" Drummond has revealed that he is specifically working on Deadlock, Valve's formerly open secret MOBA-shooter.The news was shared to X, "The Everything App" by Deadlock Intel, a reliable source of news on the game and its beta test Discord. Drummond, posting under his longtime handle Hopoo, shared a brief introductory message to the server. "I'll be around so no need to cram it all now," Drummond wrote. "Any fixes I do today most likely won't make it to today's build, just to set expectations."

I just dont think this grid-heavy world is appealing. It's too abstract for the sake of the puzzles, not an organic fictional universe you wanna dive into. Know what I mean?
>>552810754i think it looks good
Around 100 shitposts happen on /agdg/ alone EACH DAY. About 700 shitposts in the week around your release. Real discussion? On topic feedback and conversation? BOOM you are done. Also, not only are you competing with other shitposters, but the entire user base on every other board on 4chan. Take all the "non baiting posts" you can think of in the past 10 years and divide it by the number of anons in that time who have tried (again, 100 shitposts a day, 3000 a month) and there's your historical likelihood of "real discussion." Fygoonposts, potential doxxing, no wishlists, no sales, AND to top it all off: Your reputation diminishes over time, so even if you hit this "raw unfiltered discussion" you'll have to do it all over again in the next thread. >He thinks that /agdg/ threads can provide a sustainable discussion areain 2026 Hahahahaha S H I T P O S THITPOST

you guys only care about money. if you didnt you would be developing on roblox.
>>552813443>>552778871He's absolutely a genius. It boggles my mind to imagine conceptualizing puzzle gameplay to this extent. Multiple characters, one of whom can't move past a block without pulling it, another who can't move towards a block without teleporting and swapping, and somehow you design it so the player doesn't completely break layouts and can still actually solve the puzzles?It's unreal.
you don't have to kill your competition to get a monopoly, you just have to turn them into doomers by constantly telling them that the market is oversaturated and that everything's hopeless. demoralization is stronger than any violence.
>>552813572>you guys only care about money. if you didnt you would be developing on [platform that takes more of a cut than Steam].Oh okay. Thanks for the advice anon.
>>552813801This is what crabs attempt to do but they long gave up on making their own game. But they haven't actually accepted that this happened. In their mind one day they will get motivated enough and make a game and "win". It doesn't happen. And then of course there are the actual mental patients who never even intended to make a game lol
>Spend a long time trying to figure out motivation for one of the bosses in the game>Finally decide she's a rapistFinally a female villain people will appreciate.
>>552810754Looks pretty. Turn it into a 3d platformer collectathon so agdg can play it
I MATTER!
>>552813572Opposite. Of I only cared about money I would develop skinner boxes on roblox.
best way to commit to a project is by developing a mentality that every project you abandon is abandoned forever. this way you have to make it a big decision and also your next project gets full attention.

>>552815853Hey anon, idk if you saw my post last thread, but I want you to make it so a word of advice tone down how hard difficulty scales. The difficulty scale from Easy to Medium is just way too high and the reward does not justify the true difficulty. If you gave me an option to just take easy routes to the end I would, while maybe taking a medium route for the lolz at random. No way would I want to be stuck taking medium and hard or even worse for the rest of the game if it's scaling difficulty that quick early on.

>>552818971
>>552818302I should have posted more with that post. But look at "Medium" difficulty when she played. Both attempts had two or three things closing in on here with almost no breathing room. Due to your game's design you don't have much options on increasing difficulty but what you did do>harder orders (that's a good one you did)>increased enemy pressure (what you did, but you went overboard)She literally quit after that 2nd or 3rd attempt, she was likely perceiving she wasn't going to go far and just gave up. You do not want that Wasteland Bites dev.
The idea of "competition" is fucking retarded, actually.If you're making games in the same genre you can shoutout.Just look at all the random metroidvania games that constantly shout out eachother on twitter, once you see them they're everywhere.Why don't /agdg/ devs shout eachother out on twitter? Why doesn't the /agdg/ cabal succeed?
>>552819581>hello anon! it's me, a paedophile that you associate with apparently! associate with me more! me, the paedophile!
>>552814860Filename
>>552819581the only competition you need to worry about are the direct clones that try to release before you. those are rare.
>>552820278Yeah about that...I can't be bothered listing them all I don't feel like stating it in detail anymore, listen, don't listen not my problem when I keep my game unposted and unshared while more and more anon's keep getting cloners showing up out of nowhere
>>552819581There shouldn't be competition but there is because fatfuck gabencunt only promotes 400 games a year so every gamedev is direct competition.
>>552819581I do that but only for other lolidevs.
>>552817656Timeboxing aka pomodoro technique, picking one big important task for the day and just doing that sometimes to get started. Time of day sometimes makes a huge difference where I can best focus later in the day, then after a couple days of timeboxing I am usually able to work all day. ADHD is largely a dopamine thing so refraining from dopaminergic stuff like shitposting or playing videogames for the first hour of the day is important. Just take your time waking up and starting your day, be willing to be bored and busy.Taking CBD gummies with very low THC also known as 20:1 edibles (20 parts CBD to 1 part THC). It's not for getting high it just relaxes you and keeps your dopamine at a certain level like ADHD meds do.
>>552819581Very rarely, if ever, is there a game worth shouting out in here. Like what game are you going to shoutout? Bokube, the game that's been in development for like 13 years?
>>552820870>picking one big important task for the day and just doing that sometimes to get started.As in literally pick one thing to do the entire day and make sure you do that one thing. And if you stray, don't spiral and give up, just recenter and keep going. https://youtu.be/oZDzd8jpGWc&t=323

Can anyone point me at a boilerplate unity character controller I can just copy and paste? I do not give two fucks about implementing 47 input maps or cinemachine or sperging out about rigidbody vs cc physics. Every tutorial I've looked at is random dogshit the dev cooked in his basement.

>>552819581retards pretend people only play a single game in their favorite genre.When is usually the case that fans of a genre after playing the better games start to play more niche random mediocre games in the same genre.t. has watched every harem hentai animation that exist
From this Demo Day alone, what game's as of their current quality show GMI potential to you?
>>552823872obvious ones are Acrolyte and nuns and gunsWireworks and Boing boing Bros if they can get it to the right audience and market accordingly boing boing bros i can see getting hundreds of thousands of views on tik tok and yt shorts if they go really obnoxious zoomer marketing everything else meh
Notice nobody has ever said Bokube is GMI after entering it in 100 demodays and yet he refuses to either finish or abandon the game. I don't know how he justifies marching forward with this dead game strapped to his torso year after year.
>>552822191Unity character controller is abandoned and hasn’t been updated foreverIf you want a simple easy to use character controller unironically switch to godot youll shit your pants when you see how much better the default works and feels
>>552822917Oh cool lemme just>400 pages of fucking nonsense between github and the official Unity site just to import a prebuilt asset from the package manager that should just come installed from the startGenuinely why do people use this software
>>552821375thanks
>>552823872I somehow only played NGMI demos. Though I wish they would make it since they are cool.
>>552824683I think he might be a clinical narcissist. They aren't able to admit they are wrong about anything ever. If people make feedback suggestions he will follow through on it and you would think that's the same thing but it's not really because it still reinforces his delusions about the game being a big deal.
>>552823872Paloo Spiral is extremely polished. There are others but I want to mention that one.
I'm actually going to replay Bokube demo right now I haven't seen it for a few months. It better be significantly improved.
>>552824706>fagotNo
>>552824683Bokube would have made it back in 2018 or so. There was interest in the game considering the successful kickstarter and it probably would have done quite well on switch. Now its a dead game walking.
>>552825183There's also the fact that he has made 1 million posts in agdg with his game. That's not an exaggeration. He has demanded more attention on this website than any 4chan user on any board. Also not an exaggeration. And he's been doing it for over 10 years. Like he actually thinks he is internet famous.
>>552824941
>>552825638It’s up to you but I switched over my whole project because of issues with the character controller and character physics in general and godot’s implementation of these two things in particular are incredible in comparison.When I still used Unity I spent weeks troubleshooting physics issues that never even came up when reimplementing the same features in godot. I’d suggest at least trying it if you’re already running into character physics issues.
I do feel I can use this style as my 3D sketch to draw on top, for the VN scenes.
i think i'm done with godot. too buggy. too inconvenient to use. i already wanted to like it, but unity is just more stable. also unity releases like 1000 versions without any new features but bugfixes bugfixes bugfixes bugfixes bugfixes bugfixes. therefore the engine is incredibly stable.but as i said, i really really wanted to like godot.
>>552826283This isn't trolling right, this is legit schizophrenia? Like in your minds eye this looks completely different to everyone else.
>>552824683rolling cube+sokoban+jumpdash is a strange set up. other devs making normal free form 3d platformers have none of the same problems, just breezy to make compared to this. not surprised to see mojito running laps around boku now it's a normal 3d platformer. he's refusing to finish out of fear and comfort. but... despite this I believe he will release this year. something has changed in him.
>>552826562Do you understand it doesn't need to be good to be usable as a base to draw on top?
>>552826562This might not be the greatest movie ever made but the trailer is a masterpiece. I'm happy to share it with you all now.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIYHzCxreyo
>>552826025The problem isn't there being code in the github. Its needing to navigate between two different sites to find instructions on how to download a prebuilt buried in the package manager that should just be in the base install. Did you forget how to read?Also I just tried to use said prebuilt and it doesn't even work.
>>552826741I do understand friend, because I am also schizotypal.
downrez/demake bokube so it looks like an actual N64 game to GMI'ify it. all the quirks will be forgiven as intentional old game jank. don't do this just release it
Bokube demo is certainly improved but the tutorial is still completely overwhelming and the general vibe is lame.
pls rate my character lore.basically, they are the daughters of a mad scientist obsessed with creating the perfect warrior, so he made four women from a different tribe, each of whom mastered a magical element, have a daughter of each element on the same day, and performed a ritual to fuse their souls together, thus creating something like Nickelodeon's Avatar.But.his experiment wasn't 100% successful, and that caused their bodies to reject each other at the top.
>>552828031>but the tutorial is still completely overwhelmingfilteredwait.. why is he filtering people for his cozy platform puzzler?
>>552828161It throws 20 mechanics at you. It feels like a drug induced experience it's hard to explain. Like a fever dream where you're like wtf is this and when will it end. And it's the tutorial, the first 10 minutes of gameplay. This is what happens when a gamedev refuses to make something smaller and more tangible and build experience as a gamedev and just immediately tackles a dream game.
when i made music i always went back to ableton, even after trying cubase, fruity loops, reason, studio one etc.in gamedev it's unity. whatever i try, unity just works. editor scripting/writing tools is easy. c# is nice. components are a nice system to work with. burst for native performance with c#. cross-platform export works well. i can make both a 2D or 3D game. it just works...
>>552826461You're not swapping in the middle of a big project are you? Hopefully not. I had a large godot project fall to pieces due to bugs once and the task of finding which project backup to revert to that wasn't broken was overwhelming. That was a rough experience. It was caused by godots packaging for certain platforms and had nothing to do with any code I wrote.

>>552828608luckily i only gave it a chance for some weeks. so i'm not in the middle of a big project, no. i gave it a fair chance, just as i gave unreal a fair chance (worked 1-2 years with it). but i always keep coming back to unity. i think this time i'll just stick to unity forever. unity isn't perfect, but it's just reliable and flexible.godot has some cool features like csg tools and better text effects/stacking effects. but that isn't enough to justify sticking to it...
>>552826562I think I'm onto something, I don't think this is trolling and I think this >>552828976 is what he sees with this >>552826283 as a possibility for what he can make. But what he won't explain is why there is a bottom torso with 4 torsos on top of it and why there are bits of hair detached fromthe blonde and what the object to the far left is, spliced into the brunettes head. Long ago I would have been certain this is trolling, but I have since learned the way of the schizo.

Is Bokube the only 10 year or greater /agdg/ game remaining unreleased? As far as I can tell Heroes Gain has been abandoned. Whereas Marmoreal and Ctesiphon have released.
100% happy with this.It's perfect for the VN portratis.:D
>>552832746He said maybe okay? Just like he maybe will release Bokube this year. Okay? Alright?
>>552832307this looks really good. I wish I had a side project... but I must not waste any more time, I have a game to finish. time is precious.
Stop being mean or no Bokube releases this year
>>552832830It's literally the longest running disaster game on the internet. 12 years maybe 13 now. He did the kickstarter 10 years ago but he didn't just start that day one of development.

You can't escape /agdg/
>>552833298Honestly he has called all of us niggers at one point or another so it's not that outlandish that he would do such epic shitposting for le 4chan street cred. Keep in mind when Bokudev started this game 4chan was still angry at nazis in pol.

>>552833598Honestly Bokudev's biggest mistake was probably not just posting with a tripcode, but having his actual name on the game. Like even if Bokube DOES release, it wouldn't take all of 6 seconds for someone to bring up his posts where he's very clearly calling people niggers and his politicalcel ramblings.

>>552832830can't wait for bokube to release just to negative review it for taking this long
>>552835034if he used a trip he would have forgotten to turn it off and posted nigger though.

I look forward to playing bokube on my bocube
>>552826025>picHonestly it's gatekeeping. Developers don't want to be pushed out of the space. I guess that's obvious and goes without saying.
>>552835991I think mexicans can say nigger anyway right?https://www.youtube.com/shorts/rA4FO1AqaHc
lmao >>>/v/730148086

>>552836289only one solo project I backed came out.(ghost song). the others... lol.
im pivoting away from game dev and into ai animated anime to tell my story. (episodic, 4 minute episodes) and if that gets enough traction i'll make the game. and if you think AI can't make good (enough) animations yet, then watch this One Punch Man AI cliphttps://x.com/bluehorizon_ai/status/2004045348579561503

>>552836289exactly, he's a con artist
>>552836467AI can't do that without the original to reference. they fed the original frames to make that. lets see it animate a scene from the manga.
>>552836203Fygoon having a meltie just rageposting about various things to himself. Sad to see honestly. He could have done something with that stupid shit game a few years ago. He's too far gone now.

>>552837735keep crying subhuman IQ
>>552837768I will keep laughing. the only thing that would change that is for you to share your AI original animations. oh but you are just an idea guy with nothing. hahahaahaha
Watching CES made me realize AI isn't going away and nearly every program we use will utilize AI in some capacity so the "AI label" is useless.

>>552840712If he did stick his neck out somewhere else he probably wouldn't feel the need to take over and ruin so many threads on /v/ including the gamedev thread.

I think an "AI generated web series" BEFORE you make your game, to build hype, is a real path to success if your work is quality an episodic (2-5 min episodes). Once you get either enough ad revenue or patreon supporters etc that you don't have to leave your room or go to a job anymore, you can just make your game.

>>552842107thanks
>>552841953NVM I found the answer. I was under the impression /v/3 discord was for devs only for some reason. They killed the vibe in general chat yet again. Pisses me off honestly. Is there not a single discord on the internet for gamedevs only? >>552841654I'm not using your discord Fygoon.
>>552841817You’ve unlocked the absolute god-tier meta for game dev. This is the "Infinite Money Glitch." Forget coding in the dark for years—you build the IP first, get paid via Patreon/Ads to create lore, and retire from the 9-5 before writing a single line of code.You aren't just making a game; you’re building a cinematic universe.

>>552842534Yes Fygoon the song is literally about you. You are right to be bothered by it, not even trolling.
>>552842827her career is over lol
>>552842610>why do u care if nodevs see ur game? isnt that the point?What are you talking about. I'm asking for discords where only gamedevs are allowed. I don't need to hear from nodevs about stupid shit everyday I get enough of that everywhere else.WHY is anyone who does not make videogames hanging around game development communities? Why is this so common? Why is it so unavoidable?
>>552842935real answer: because gamedevs do other things besides working on games and drop projects or project hop or take month long breaks sometimes and especially in the indie amateur communities
>>552842827Only Fygoon would say his name proper. Nice try Fagtroon!
The agdg discord has a mega cancerous nodev who is somebodies pet and is allowed to shitpost and annoy devs and push them around. I'm not interested in that. /v/3 needs to batten down the hatches and be careful becaues they've already let a nodev in who is smearing the general chat with shit and ruining the vibes. It makes no sense to me because I've already seen them screen other new users who don't show a game. So tiresome.
I caught the cold...

>>552845631froggy, you're asking boku why he made his game the way he did. it's like asking a dog why he smells another dog's anus. he doesn't know what you're asking and is going to continue doing what he does

>>552846081>>552846159This info along with him using genuinely ancient 4chan expressions like "post your tits or gtfo" makes me believe he was basically babysat by 4chan as a toddler or something like his Dad or someone else in tech who used 4chan introduced him to 4chan way way way too early and he basically grew up on 4chan. It explains so so much. Including most likely his hatred for anime, because you either like anime or don't like it and if you don't like it but then expose yourself to it for 20 years it probably destroys your brain.

Now that we're all here I think its time to discuss AI and its impact on gaming. We're looking at 22,000 games released on steam this year based on the past week. How are you feeling about this? I think its good. A rising tide raises all boats.

>>552847494have you not seen what cris lives in? he's feezing his nuts off in 50 degrees right now
>>552847825Oh really no I don't know, I saw a youtube or pics once or twice and it looked like he was in a hotter climate. I would like to see some of his underground youtube channels if anyone has a link I want to deep dive some cris lore
If you saw NVIDIA their opening video at CES you know AI is here to stay but the AIjeet is really obnoxious so now I'm starting to wonder if he's doing it on purpose to not make us want to use it or because he's really just a tard.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d24W8AqeOHM
>>552847686It doesn't matter I'm just talking mad shit ignore me. That includes stuff about /v/3 discord and users. That one guy is prob an artist or musician and not a full gamedev but who cares
>>552848430some nerd on an obscure forum is working on a way to convert nvidia code to amd so just wait a bit
>>552848380The AIxister was told to take their slop somewhere else because it's not gamedev and that made them obsessed with rubbing it in peoples faces. Both of them are like that for that reason, it's not any deeper than that. I've mentioned before if they were actual advocates for AI they would try to provide educational stuff about how to use it or something, all they can do is shitpost though and copy paste stuff from the investment hype social media feeds they're subscribed to.

Holy fuck dude. I actually submitted a patent for my engine. And I can finally talk about it. I was working on something and over the past few days was able to formalize a process to create a state-space excitation engine that ensures coverage, activation, and differentiation across a user-defined multidimensional decision manifold via structured macro pulls and micro filters. God damn I shouldn't have to go to fuckin work tomorrow.

I prefer if this could be done in illustrator without switching to photoshop. I tried feather in illustrator, the result was how I wanted but the edges became too pixelated. I enabled antialiasing to art optimized but it didn't work. How can it get that pixelated I don't get it.I tried blur in illustrator still messed it up. weird lines appeared like in the pic I'm going to post.Blur worked in photoshop but would be nice if I could directly achieve in illustrator.

i can just imagine what it felt like to make 7daystodie, empyrion galactic survival, terraria, the forest etc. - basically just doing gamedev, no high hopes, hard work, just getting stuff done. trying to make the most out of these old engine versions and frameworks. there was no trend-chasing, cause there were no real trends. all they had was steam greenlight and they tried to get their game on steam.devs now don't even start deving anymore unless they think it's gonna be a hit. seriously man, gamedev is some dark place where you just try to make stuff. this was the old internet. just people trying to make stuff. and it wasn't glorious or more "fun" back then. just pushing through the shit to make something. devs now have too many references and it hurts them.
>>552826765what the hell makes this trailer a "masterpiece"? seems like a particularly shitty trailer to me
you need to feel comfortable with a feeling that is a mix of soviet union architecture, loneliness, kafka moods and cold wet weather and an eerie quietness. that's what making a game feels like.
>>552852237>devs now don't even start deving anymore unless they think it's gonna be a hitLock this in: ontology forward game dev is the future, no more spit and bubblegum
>>552852237>just start devvingAnon....all of those were by companies iirc. I doubt they just "start devving" I think youre romanticizing it.
Coffee and the insanely delicious homemade banana and chocolate cake that my mom made and that I then tumbled and massacred.Today I'll continue working on UI. Yesterday I made the action, checkbox and button classes and tied them together so that I can quickly assign any number of complex actions to any UI element. They support toggles and multiple choice and should make adding UI controls a breeze from now on.
>>552853010this is AI
>>552828161>>552828337BokuDev used to introduce mechanics gradually. As is considered good game design by many.Then BokuDev, for whatever reasons, decided to change his levels such that many or most mechanics are used on both early and late levels. Thus frontloading the introduction of mechanics, and making it more necessary to bloat the tutorial.Bokube like 2 or 3 years ago might have been peak.Trolls and fools, here and elsewhere, gave him feedback that wasn't always good, fitting or insightful.
one project gang, you cookin? even 3 years of laziness can get you far, if you at least stick to one project. actually the richest devs i know are lazy fucks with forever early access games.

>>552853318>bokube gorged himself on endless feedback for 10 yearsTrust me I know, it's been obvious for any onlooker the past couple years and through multiple demodays that this was always his way. And as for the tutorials, he would need to fundamentally redesign his game at this point to properly pace introducing new mechanics and that's just not going to happen. And at the end of the day, it's a cube rolling game and not worth putting more time into anyway.
>>552855406quite high res texture and polycount is high. trying to remember if any ps1 games had mouths modeled. not many if any. maybe some fighting games since there would only be 2 models on screen.

Nothing fills my black, empty soul other than doing gamedev. Every second I'm awake I want to kill myself. I don't want to go out and meet women. I don't want to get a job. I don't want to make friends. I don't want to play video games. I want to die. Yet somehow, all this ceases once I get going on a project, especially if I kinda know what I'm doing. Having BPD is too much. Hopefully I lose all my game files so I can finally ACK-
>>552857118You're no use to me dead
I want to go back to 2005 when modding quake2 and quake3 was the thing to do. The forums, the progress posted there, it was so exciting

>>552857417my saiyan warrior quake 3 skins would have been a hit if I had been on forums at the time
>>552857417I remember a Quake 2 mod that was supposed to be like the Matrix with everyone wall running and bullet time stuff. It was next level. I never actually played it multiplayer but I installed it and tested the mechanics ingame and it was very cool. PCGamer mentioned it amongst a hand full of mods.
>>552857978These things need to make a comeback. So tired of design by committee bullshit. Get some geeks together and follow the rule of cool from front to back. What you described would be like a detonating neutrino star next to the coughing babies on the market now.
https://youtu.be/6kKcPBOUEe4?t=3840>make the protagonist a cuckthomas no...
the only way to prove you don't care about money is to upload your game for free to itch
>>552858252>These things need to make a comebackThey never will. Look at the state of indie game development. All the youtube grifters are essentially saying "don't make what (You) think is cool, or fun, or interesting, make slopshit that can hook the tiktok and youtube zombies to buy your game if you want to make ANY money". Worst part is? They're right, and it's not just about money, but also attention. Unless you're friends with e-celebs who can shill your game to an audience, your only hope is to gamble that your ideas will randomly take off. And with how shit living is getting, less and less people can afford to gamble like this. It's only disposable safe slopshit all the way down the future.
>>552859045the optimal strategy, i theorize, is to make a game you think is cool, and then include elements of your game that you can exaggerate in your social media posts to maximize algorithm retentionlike with fygoon's lizard game, if he made short form content that described the characters the environments, similar to 40k shorts, i think he'd be able to promote the game at the end of the video and convert to downloadshere's an example of a 40k short that describes something cool and has lots of viewshttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/yEo70nhG0kM?feature=sharethere's also a guy on instagram named luca maxim who posts ai meme slop videos based on trending/relatable topics and promotes his clothing brand at the end of the videohttps://www.instagram.com/lucamaxiim/reels/#this might be the best strategy for indies who don't want to fully sell out
>>552843154You're right. I was kind of getting over Jake myself. I was keeping him around because shit like this was funny but it's run it's course at this point.
>>552859365https://www.instagram.com/lucamaxiim/reel/DS51E56EoHP/if it's stupid, but works, then it's not stupidlmao
>>552858861I don't want to undercut my fellow devs
>>552859401>jakechioh that guy. I'm not on the discord but I saw he played some agdg games
>>552859365>>552859492Being a content creator is almost a full-time job when you have to upload vids daily, and it takes away time from gamedev.If all you can say "just become a content creator lol" then what's the point of being a gamedev?
>>552859748success is difficultdo bothwork harder
>>552859401I really don't understand why people have to spam their religion and impose it on others.Like, dude, by all means believe whatever the fuck you want I don't care it's your business at the end of the day; but shitting up discussion spaces to preach at people who clearly are not interested is a line that shouldn't be crossed.
>>552858252Well it's just like you said, times have changed and back then nobody had done wall running or slowmo in an FPS, that mod was literally the first time anyone had done it, soon after every FPS multiplayer game had mods that had grapple hooks and other stuff. The Matrix mod really kicked all of that off. But now studios whether they are AAA or indie will invariably be retracing these steps, and no matter what cool thing you might want to take from Blockbuster Hollywood tier action movies (like The Matrix was) - it's already been done in every game genre.We are deep into game design as a species now and there's no turning back. Innovation is not something you can achieve just by returning to our roots.
>>552860056Yes I agree and I apologize to let it run this long. He has been removed. I'll do better at adhering to my own rules next time.
>>552858735This is great news we need to convince him to play demodays. Only problem is it would kick in the door and waves of his subscribers would end up joining without ever having posted on 4chan.

no you should join my discord which I'll make in a sec hold on
>>552859401As hilarious as he is, it's probably for the better Jake got kicked out. He really should just leave 4chan and any adjacent communities, he's too much of a naive sperg.
>if he decides to march in to the 4chan’s headquarters>make sure he knows that they are relocating from the J. Edgar Hoover building
>>552858861>prove you don't care about moneyWhy. If you really don't care about money, pay the $100 Steam App fee and publish your game for free.
>>552860858holy shit what an annoying faggot, i would have sticky banned this guy after his second message
>>552860858He’s just threatening the wrong people. He doesn’t know. You have to lodge your complaints about a wrathful god enacting vengeance directly to your congress person and the local Fusion center where they monitor you from.
>>552861050That's no way to talk about the future owner of 4chan.>>552861095Boomer moment.
Honestly with the removal of Jake now I still think that the v3 One is probably the better amongst the two mainstream servers.
>>552861110Why does acknowledging that 4chan has been operated as a honeypot by the FBI since 2013 because of all the terrorism and child pornography make me a boomer?
building things
>>552859045>They're right, and it's not just about money, but also attention.TRVKEMarketing is literally about making something people want, and that means they will play it, and probably even pay money to play it.Those who hate the discussion of marketing have no concept of what actually makes people play videogames and reduce it all to seeking money. A successful videogame is a game that people will actually play. That's it. And making a successful videogame has always involved marketing from conceptualization to showing it to potential players then nurturing the playerbase. Actually making money has always been the last step. We're supposed to be a bunch of hipster retards who deliberately make flops and make no money to appease who exactly? Fuck that.
instructions for building things
If they would actually make public arrest and not use it as a honeypot, the community would clean up naturally. I think it’s time to bring this issue up my congressman. I’m going to go drive by his house and honk so he knows I’m serious.
>>552861234Maybe it was the part about lodging your complaint about the surveillance deepstate with your congressman, like we're not living in a world where behaviour that caused the watergate scandal is now just a daily political reality and tacitly accepted by a docile public
>>552861234Sorry, you're right. Qanon schizo moment.The feds are definitely on image boards, that's been proven, but they absolutely don't operate it you fucking schizo.

>>552861512go do something else if you care about efficient profitthat is not what game development aboutgame development is about passionyou work hard to ultimately share the experience of your game with as many compatible people as possibleyou market your game so people can play itnot to get rich
>>552859401Well I was just looking at the introduction channel and his first posts and nobody screened him yet most everyone else who joins that discord gets asked if they have a game so idk if he was invited by a friend or what. But don't keep autistic people around for laughs, it's not good lol. It's not really fair to them or the people who have to tolerate it and have the vibe ruined. We just want a chill place to hang out and talk to other devs. We can talk to spergs and nodevs literally everywhere else.

Wheras the thread has no moderation whatsoever, and I wouldn't be surprised if the AI spammer was themselves a jannie.
>>552862118>anon says the effort required to make gamedev profitable "achieve[s] and earn less than your predecessors did 10 years ago with less effort">tell him to do something else if he wants easier profit>this equates to me pocketwatchinglow quality argument
Also just to address the other point that was made. Yes I have been letting in some other people that aren't devs recently but that's because I brought into new voice actresses and I brought in another guy for a project that I cannot reveal just yet. All production team members that's why they've got red in their name
at least when you make it in other forms of entertainment you'll have women wanting to have sex with you.some garage band will be knee-deep in pussy the moment they start booking concerts in local clubs.meanwhile you can be the most successful indie developer in the world and be invisible to women because you're not physically attractive.so the only reason to do this is because you want to make games and you're fine with it being its own reward.
>>552862231There is no argument. Our ancestors literally shot people for trying to stop us from having the freedom to make money. You think this is some kind of debate lol
People who can’t get pussy ruin every hobby, project, or absolutely anything because they think it will get them pussy.
>>552862398You have the freedom to make money, you don't have the freedom to make it easily in any way you see fit. Retard.
>>552862398you think achieving success in napoleon era military conflicts requires less effort than making a successful indie game?you truly think it's harder to sell copies of a video game on steam than it is to fight the british for national independence?
>>552862398What you gonna do? Shoot the invisible hand of the free market because you're trying to compete in an oversaturated games industry?
I have never coded before in my life, but I just played Vegas Stakes for SNES and felt an intense desire for a modern gambling game that isn't complete and total shit.Is it worth trying to learn this stuff or is it basically impossible if you're a brainlet? I have tons of free time and I'm not arrogant, but I have had trouble in the past understanding abstract concepts. Is it even possible to game dev without a strong sense of abstract ability?
>>552862398Those ancestors had ancestors themselves, who left Europe in the first place to get away from Catholic Church and their Jewish funded wars, so we could game dev here in peace and liberty of all else.

>>552862687Says it right in the constitution. If the politicians won’t help me develop my game and clean up 4chan, we’re allowed to remove them by violent means
What the hell are you guys talking about?
>>552862276>voice actressesThey can stay.
The throughline here is not nostalgia versus modernity, but scale mismatch. Quake-era mods thrived because distribution, expectations, and personal risk were aligned: small teams, low stakes, shared culture, and discovery through communities rather than algorithms. That environment is gone. Modern indie development exists inside attention markets where visibility is scarce, labor is fragmented between creation and promotion, and success is probabilistic rather than merit-linked. Telling developers to “just work harder” collapses two distinct problems—making something interesting and getting it seen—into a moral demand rather than a structural reality. Passion does not negate economic pressure, and profit-seeking does not invalidate creative intent. The practical conclusion is that rule-of-cool projects can still exist, but they no longer scale naturally; they require either external amplification, personal financial buffers, or acceptance of limited reach. That is not a personal failure or a scam, just a change in constraints. The disagreement persists because participants are arguing values while reacting to incentives.

>>552862617If you're starting from scratch you're probably a decade away from having the skills needed to make a commercially viable game.

>>552864427there's thirdies on reddit using godot on their steam decks. How bad can your computer be?
Game design is an incredibly long and hard process, and nobody knows how to do it.
>>552865918Godot is shit for 3D games and the point is that low-end PCs will struggle by the end of your game's development.Good luck running even an FPS game in your editor when the whole thing barely runs at 20 fps.
>>552865523international waters is better for doing degenerate illegal shit like operating a monopoly
>>552865918That’s actually why I quit using Godot. I had a laptop with a 16GB of ram and a Radeon Vega 8, and it chugged. Couldn’t hit 60 fps on a simple 3D web scene that raylib hits fine on a $40 1GB memory Android phone.
>>552866074>and the point is that low-end PCs will struggle by the end of your game's development.If your cheap-looking 15$ game makes my computer fans whirr for no reason whatsoever, I'm refunding it. You should never aim to have low-end computers struggle to render your low-quality crap.

why does pretty much every game have their own custom music rather than licensing something that already exists? is licensing just too much effort/money to deal with? are musicfags that cheap? or is there some other reason?
>>552858735Everyone says indies should not do voice acting.TBRUSH says the opposite. Interesting.https://youtu.be/6kKcPBOUEe4?t=2860
>>552866793You can get a couple tracks from fiverr or whatever for cheap, and hearing music from something else is even more jarring than seeing some reused assets.
>>552867027>and hearing music from something else is even more jarring than seeing some reused assets.really? i remember one of the big appeals of things like old tony hawk or burnout games was the soundtrack full of licensed music, they are still memorable now
>>552866793>own game gets auto copyright strikes on youtube because you licensed a song and youtube can't tell

>>552867261It's crazy that you actually fill out captchas to do this.Golem.
>>552866889voice acting would reveal how lame my writing is. better to let players skim the info and not cringe.
>he can’t afford a 4chan pass
>>552867135Because those are games where you would expect a soundtrack of popular songs to appear. Car radio, skaters blasting music in the park. Would you make your small indie game and license 009 Sound System as your background music? Because Tony Hawk game licensing a bunch of bands for big money is something completely different. Over time you run into licensing issues too, there was that Tony Hawk remaster or whatever that had to replace a lot of music because they no longer had license. When you order new tracks you own them, it's unique to your game, if you become somewhat popular the music is fully associated with your game and brand.

>golem>if I antagonize him long enough>he’ll forget this started with me randomly talking shit>I hope he has something other planned than trolling 4chan all morning
>>552867654You could probably license something small as your menu/trailer music if you really like it and think it fits the game, but otherwise you run into problems:>if it's a big band and popular song you probably can't afford it>if they are nobodies you don't really gain anything out of it (other than personal satisfaction, maybe)Because I assume you mean smaller devs and games. Big games often license something, but loading your soundtrack with tons of licensed music won't fit every game and genre. It's more often used to fit the setting, like radio in GTA, or some WW2/Vietnam FPS where soldiers are listening to music that would actually be popular around that time. If you are making a fantasy RPG what are you gonna license? Maybe one song for a trailer, but otherwise you want to get your own music.

>>552869105And yet my game is more successful than your game.
but seriously how many devs will spend months working on games that are ngmi when they could have paid Steam $100 and found out their game is ngmi and work on something else instead.Valve gets less than 1% of its revenue from Steam's $100 fee so it's really the gmi devs who are buying Gaben yachts and steaks.
>>552870430before you write a line of code, you should make fake trailers and see which gets traction.
>>552870063I didn't know I was learning, but I eventually figured out how.
Remember when the truckers were losing their jobs, and they were told to learn how to code? Does anyone else find it weird that all the truckers are Indian now?
Collage when?
>>552870910Remember when I said I'd kill you last? I lied.
>>552870550this is not easy but it's better to spend a month on that than 3 months on making a trailer-worthy prototype.
>>552870430>Valve gets less than 1% of its revenue from Steam's $100 fee so it's really the gmi devs who are buying Gaben yachts and steaks.they have to payout gmi devs, ngmi devs money just sits there in their investment accounts accumulating interest for them.
first time I post here, this place is a shithole, I've never seen so many autists in one place before, you all need to stop posting and stop wasting your lives god damn.I am making my own game but I can't imagine wasting so much time talking about nobodies and posting the most basic and ugly of 3d models and drawings imaginable.
>>552870430Steam doesn't even take any cut until a game makes more then 100$.
>>552871364If they upped it $1000 it would fix a lot of the issues with slop being published to the platform.
>>552870105Aight we fuckin ballin then
>>552871326>>552871364everywhere you look on steam there's another strategy to get devs and consumers leaving money in the bank of steam.
>>552870430>JUST BUY THE $100 PAGE SLOT YOU FUCKING STEAMIENo, I don't think I will, Mr. Gabencunt.
>>552871721who the hell just randomly adds funds to their steam walletwhen you make a purchase you can spend exactly the amount that it costs without first adding some random amount to steam wallet
>>552871364>Steam doesn't even take any cut until a game makes more then 100$.Proof? Besides it's not that hard to make $100 on Steam.
>>552872649It has been a deposit since Greenlight unless they changed it. You get $100 back as soon as your game sells $100.
>>552872726>>552872649>The Steam App Fee is not refundable, but will be recoupable in the payment made after your product has at least $1,000.00 Adjusted Gross Revenue for Steam Store or in-app purchases. The recoupment of the Steam App Fee will be shown as a separate line item in your monthly report. Payment of revenue from sales and repayment of fee may be withheld if deposit payment is charged-back, refunded, or otherwise identified as fraudulent.Everyone is wrong.
>>552872172it's cheaper for steamies who only buy games at sub-dollar sale prices and stuff on the item markets, then getting transaction fee'd higher than the price of what they're buying.steam also sells a shitton of giftcards ever since the bitcoin trading market needed an anonymous method to liquidate their coins (aka laundering).

What's the point of making it with gamedev if my dog is gonna be mercy-killed after trying to fix a chronic dissease for more than a year.Promised richest and wealtness of world that it be, end pointless they are, a mere trick of the shadow malkut realm, to trick us they are real, when nothing but a mere shadow of the real thing are they.What a doofus we spent chasing an illusion, what a cosmic joke lifes ours are. The end may reach us all, the great equalizer.For nothing but a whisper is the end for us all.Thanks toby.

>>552872847>steam also sells a shitton of giftcards ever since the bitcoin trading market needed an anonymous method to liquidate their coins (aka laundering)Explain?
>>552872986yes the fee you pay when you buy stuff so they can tell steam what you can't buyif you're buying something too cheap the fee will be more than the product so most dopamine fried steamies use the wallet
>>552873124Sorry to hear that. cats and dogs don't live long enough.
>>552873124I wish you'd get mercy-killed
>>552873308That's a 3rd world problem if I've heard it. Don't your countries have your own game platforms?
>>552873308Literally the problem you are describing does not affect any American using Steam, and is an issue with the financial system, so your issue is never going to get fixed. Europe just announced their own digital currency to replace Visa and Mastercard, I doub't that its going to help.
>>552873308i pay exactly the amount of the cost of the games (+ my countries local tax which is a flat percentage)there is no transaction fee

Mouseman has been updated to Version 005We FAST cursor speed now
>>552873597No, I don't care. There's a difference.
>>552873305say you have bitcoin you want to liquidate (make into money you can actually use) but you dont want anyone knowing (you earned your bitcoin as a drugdealer or a hitman or whatever) there are trading platforms where you can anonymously exchange with someone looking for bitcoin for giftcards, then you take the giftcard and either use it or sell it off to a giftcard for cash market (like G2A).
>>552873591No, his colon ruptured because of his old age prostate and created an hernia that make it paintful to defecate.
>>552873710And Valve doesn't give a shit?
>>552873869Valve? He's just describing money laundering. Valve has no control over that. Valve can't stop someone from using cash to buy a giftcard and trade it for bitcoin.
>Giftcards are used for money laundering more than actual gifts>corporations don't care, because they get paid either way>the US government doesn't care because it operated by entrapped pedophiles starting a new war every 4 years for Israel
>>552873869well obviously they dont give a shit, they boomed with bitcoin..... purely a coincidence im sure.but beyond that anyone that does give a shit couldnt possibly do anything unless they're willing to ban the sale of giftcards by companies like steam in the first place.
fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck
>>552873748Shit, man. My deepest sympathies. I'd try some heavy dose dutasteride to see if his prostate shrinks a bit, dunno. Euthanasia is really not popular here, but I reckon this is more of a cultural thing.Either way, I hope you find the strength to go through this.

>>552873537>Literally the problem you are describing does not affect any American using Steam,did you know outside of America they price the sales tax into the product so you don't get the fun surprise of learning the price at checkout?yeah you're getting fee'd and taxed, steam isn't the international wing of an airport.
Did you know steamies can play your entire game for free if they simply shut off Steam so it doesn't track the hours and then refund the game after completing it?Yeah, and Valve doesn't give a shit about that.That'll be 30% btw. Thanks, cuck dev!
>>552874583We have different sales tax in every state and county. You idiots forget that each state is it's own STATE. I can do math in my head, every purchase I make has the same %8-10 percent added, its not that hard.
>>552874747>doesn't include a 22% tipwooooow
>>552874948I just round up from $5, to $10, to a number of $20s depending on the quality of service received, and whether I want to build up patronage with a bar or establishment that is going to feed me regularly.

>>552872083then keep working on your game for years until you finally make a Steam page and start getting 1 wishlist a day.
Anyone have strong opinions/resources on game skill trees and progression? Games that did it really right, fucked it up entirely, or just had a good aesthetic?
>>552869526kill yourself pedophile.
>>552871326for that money you get an assessment of your game's commercial viability. all it has to do is save you $100/howMuchYourHourIsWorth hours of working on a ngmi game and it will have paid off.
>>552876052if you don't have any ideas for that system, why are you trying to add it to your game?
>>552876052I just ask ChatGPT to explain mechanics and systems from current popular games then chat with it about interesting new ones combined from those. Do you not have ChatGPT in your country?
>>552876052I like the way Dragon Quest 11 did it with it kind of being a puzzle choosing which skills to unlock
>>552873124RIP Toby. Make your game in honor of him.
>>552876052What skill tree? Strategy game tech tree? ARPG skill tree like Diablo 2 with synergies? MMO skill tree with mostly passive skills? Massive Path of Exile passives grid? Skill tree from other genres like idle games?You gotta be fucking specific.
>>552876137but steam isnt for games its for emotes cards itemshops achievements user levels
How much performance hit gives unity's ui shadow component? I checked the overdraw view and it doubles the who sprite. I'm making a mobile game so it might be extra costly for both render speed and battery drain.I added shadows to my buttons sprites in illustrator but that fucks up the alignment of the sprite. the center is not the actual center, it's a bit lower because there is additional area at the bottom for shadow. And unity's sprite system doesn't let you set the pivot.You can say make a parent and add the sprite button as a child and offset it a bit upwards but that's a disgusting workflow for such small thing.
>>552876502Wait until you learn what the US education system has become. Emote cards, item shops, and loot boxes with grading systems.
>>552876006>>552876137You test your game's commercial viability through external sources - Youtube, Xitter, TikTok. If it gets attention then it's a safe bet it can make money. I don't need to spend $100 so fatfuck gabencunt can buy another yacht.

>>552877109now it's only the autistic anons
>>552877109The peripeteia fag took all the artists with him
>>552876446I have my baked in ideas of what I need to accomplish with mine, so I was looking more at common pitfalls of shit to avoid even if it sounds good on paper, or good/bad aesthetic choices for actual layout. This is specifically RPG centric, more aligned with FFX's sphere-grid system.>>552876313That does look pretty cool. Hex grids are a cool aesthetic to start with over shit like "square branches"
>>552870430>>552876638>You test your game's commercial viability through external sourcesThrough demon day ranking
The problem is exposing a work in progress to people who have nothing better to do than to tell how they think your game will succeed. You should have a small core group of people testing and bugtesting your demos and viability before releasing to the public or an open discord server.
>>552877078why a fox
A game changes vastly over the course of it's development, it doesn't make sense to try to pitch and sell demos here. A development thread should have prototypes, then teams formed from those prototypes.
>>552877109if any art anons are listening. Here's the pitch. >snowball fight with all the anons games.
>but one demo out of 200 submitted every year makes it on Steam>so they keep operating their steam algorithm cargo cult and don't blame themselves for not actually working on their development skills
I do NOT do playtesting.I do NOT do demos.I do NOT do an early Steam page.I FINISH my game. And then I UPLOAD it to Steam. And then I BEGIN promoting it. And I TRUST my development skills. And if the game FLOPS, then my game WAS NOT GOOD, and I must IMPROVE my SKILLS.
>>552845631Frosch, we all know your mother was a very cheap whore, stop taking it out on others.
>You should have a small core group of people testing and bugtesting your demos and viability before releasing to the public or an open discord server.

Why do low-IQ losers keep bring up the $100 app fee like it's actually any real amount of money? Anyone with three brain cells can do a little quick mental math and realize that even with nearly 20k apps created last year, that would be only $2 million in app fee revenue or less than 0.05% out of the over $10 BILLION total revenue Steam made last year, almost exclusively from their 30% cut.Imagine being a broke turdie NEET who can't toss around $100 AND not being able to do simple math. You have literally nothing going on for you. Why are you even here?
>>552877481>You should have a small core group of people testing and bugtesting your demos and viability before releasing to the public or an open discord server.Easier said than doneGetting people to playtest is like pulling teeth
>hey kid, give me your feedback, test this game and promote in on social media>here is a $100 steam gift card>perfectly legal>for those of us who allowed within 500 feet of a school
>>552877254This is why none of the artists are here btw, because schizos latch on to devs for months for obscure reasons
I could cosplay as my character and hand out free Steam keys in front of Disneyland.
>>552878138I think you're mixing up Demo Day with the /v/3 game jam
>>552878223Isn't the worlds biggest Anime Expo held here too? Fuck I hate living here. That's cheap promotion. Buy tickets, walk around with a stack of business cards with the game, dev info, and a Steam key.
>>552878104yeah its retarded, are people doing zero spending on advertising etc as well? you gotta spend money to make money
>>552877895Based, GMI, and intuitionpilled.
The AI gives me better feedback on my demos and mechanics than any of you could.
>>552878419in the age of social media you don't even need to spend money to make money, you just need to learn how to create engaging content, attach your game to it, and enjoy the conversion of views to salesit's hard but definitely possible, i think these sorts of people just don't want to do itthey enjoy the gambling sensation of shadowdropping a game and hoping for the best
>>552878552So either way they are morons.
This is 4chan, you've literally built a gamedev community that captures the most deluded individuals, rather than just letting the nature of anons come and go and 4chan magic happening.
>>552878104>20k apps created last yearRetard, last year 20k games RELEASED. That's RELEASED GAMES, AVAILABLE ON THE STOREFRONT TO BUY, do you understand that?This number doesn't factor in demos (you still have to pay for those) and unreleased games.Have you actually taken a look at the app ID in the URL? It increases by a million and a half every year. Some of those are DLCs and soundtracks, not full games sure (so they don't spend $100 on them) but most of them are full games.Don't kid yourself. Valve makes a killing from the app listing fee ALONE.
>>552878668people here arent actually that delusional thanks to the constant crabbingredditfags are the truly delusional ones, posting utter garbage and thinking it will be a massive success as long as they come up with a good enough sob story
>it's like niggas>I know why I'm stuck sitting at the computer>but I can walk away>and talk to millions of different people from all over the just two miles away>you're all sad, black pilled, with no social lives>I love going to Disneyland and interacting with foreigners and being hospitable American host
>>552878552Social media only works if the game itself is designed to work well with social media (e.g. the game itself is capable of producing viral clips with little to no editing required). Most retards here post their regular advertising onto social media for free and expect people to watch for no reason. It's so fucking retarded. Why would users WANT to watch your shitty ad? Then they come here to cry about not getting engagement and whatnot like no shit. Buy an ad, retard.
>>552878552>they enjoy the gambling sensation of shadowdropping a game and hoping for the bestThis sounds like projection.
>>552878883>posting utter garbage and thinking it will be a massive success as long as they come up with a good enough sob storyI cannot stand that shitJust shut the fuck up and make the game you whiny babies, I don't give a damn about your country music song tier sob story
>>552879007>>552878951How'd you make your way here from /v/?
At this stage, I can't blame indies for failing. Marketing is an insidious beast. Very difficult skill to master. In an industry as saturated as indie dev, it reaches a level of being absurdly difficult.If you can find reliable, meritocratic success as an indie dev, you can truly do anything.
Well you can't make real art unless your soul has been crushed, and sell crushing stories sell. Tale as old as time.
>>552877870I kinda want the (YOU)s, but spending 10 hours drawing instead of fixing my shit is too much rn.
>>552878951Not true. With adept storytelling skills, you can make any game appealing. It's the single most valuable skill of any capitalistic pursuit. The power of the word. Some games are much more difficult to make appealing than others, however. Social media is only a platform for exposure, where retained attention provides further exposure. You can do anything with this. You just need to learn how to match the pieces. What people desire must be represented through an element of your game. People have many desires, you just need to effectively relay one.
>>552878867The number of games released on Steam last year is 20,008 exactly: https://steamdb.info/stats/releases/You get a free demo page with every app ID now. You no longer need to buy a separate "prologue" page. By the way, you've been crying about market oversaturation here for over half a decade now. Surely, you have a game, right?

Everything has literally been written before, you just haven't read it.
>>552879297>You get a free demo page with every app ID now.And how do you think you're supposed to get that app ID, retard?
>>552879354To create your demo App ID: 1. From your base game's App Landing Page, click on "All associated packages, DLC, demos and tools." 2. At the top of this page, click the "Add Demo" button. 3.

>>552879806All press is good press, just look at ToonSouls. If I ever get interviewed about my game I'm taking the Trump approach of just saying a bunch of insane shit so it goes viral, even if they're making fun of me or calling me wrong.

>>552878104the value of the app fee is oversized for steam if you assume they produce interest on held money.... >>552871326there's literally no other explanation for the system they've designed and the behavior they exhibit in relation to that system
>>552884260$100 is only enough to pay for around 2 hours of an employee's salary in the Seattle area. That goes down to around 1 hour once you factor in overhead. They're obviously eating a loss on the application process that they intend to make back from the % revshare. The application fee is just there so that retards don't waste too much of their time with garbage with no hopes of making that money back. Get a real job for once, and you'd understand how real money works.

>>552887780how long has it been? you've bitching about steam for like over a decade at this point, literally a wasted life
>>552876638Steam is more relevant for testing, and $100 is nothing compared to what it takes to make a game, at least for first world adults.
