Where are the cute-likes?
>>554723639check the mirror
the propaganda will continue until you submit your $100 bussy wrecking fee
>>554723780why do you hate steam so much?
>>554723639This game looks like Castella, who's the twitter dev?
>object>receives environment shadows>does not cast self-shadowswhy is this simple thing so FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE to achieve
>>554723807Is it time to set the record straight? Someone should do a history lesson on ole gogem and his steam days lolWon't be me, I'm done acknowledging him. For now. Too much bad energy.
>>554723887>The number of games reaching 500 reviews went down in the year 2025 despite there being 1,500 more games released in 2025 and despite steam reaching a new all time high player count
sending good vibes to bocchidevs and lolidevs
>>554723542>>/v/3's Jam >https://itch.io/jam/v3jambetz = OP hujacking actual tranny with a huge egojoshua = not a trannyit's that simple, also, kek, how many views you pull from sticking your tranny show into the OP? nonce
>>554723542This OP pic is a bit much for a blue board. tf
>>554724042I don't need to know the full record. All I need to know is that he's been making bideo games for well over a decade, and he still hasn't made it.
>>554723916>why do you hate a mono poly in your vicinityhonestly it's mostly the constant propaganda posting they subsidize that irks me
>>554724334/agdg/ where people swear they are making games as a hobby and don't care about money until it comes time to attack a developer who actually doesn't care about money
>/v/3 jamNo fucking way they got 24 signups. /agdg/ told me that they were trannys and schizos?
TLDR: He tried scamming people and got thrown out of steam.
>>554723542For any of my Texas frens, please stay safe. Winter storm is coming and we all know the Texas infrastructure is ill equipped for freezing temperatures.Make sure to have spare water, emergency flashlights and heat candles.And if we have a major power outage, make sure to get some stationary so you can dev on paper.Here is attention grabbing image so people read my post.>>554724472I thought they generally had good turnout.
>>554724334>and he still hasn't made it.circular logic poster alert: "making it" wont include selling alot of games or getting lots of big lets players or getting news articles or getting a wikipedia article or even getting rule 34 of your characters because any of those would include me who hasn't made it.
>>554723916He made a concerted effort to get banned from steam and after they played him around like a cat batting a mouse before eating it they finally let him go. It's the weirdest thing I've ever seen from a gamedev honestly and it happened many many years ago. His psychology is fascinating. I'm thinking he's a self destructive person who does things like this without being conscious of it and then finds a way to seethe about the people he forced to correct him. He does it in almost every discussion here too.
Playing VR games for inspiration and learning the medium is very interesting since a good chunk of paid apps are straight up paid tech demos done well.
>>554724270This is why I support Joshua, his antis are insane troons and pedos like >>554724181
>>554724695They do but some schizo has been dogging them the last week and I guess I got lost in the shitposting. I'll sign up before it starts I just need to get to a stopping point in my project.
>>554724760im not banned from steam, you saw the email chain, i could donate $100 to the bank of steam at any time if i really hated myself like you hate yourself.
>>554723639Project 2025 and NCMEC dealt with cutedevs swiftly and efficiently.
>>554724181IN status: LOCKEDhttps://youtu.be/MfOnq-zXXBw&t=142
>>554724942Betz is an annoying schizo shitposter, if you wanna get involved with schizos go ahead, itch signups don't mean shit because you can signup without releasing anything btw, weird that you never entered demo day else you'd know that yet you are shilling betz's schizo shit, curious.
A game where you take a shower and you have to defend yourself from monsters while your eyes are closed as you wash your hair
So far It's weird, but I am liking curvy3D, chuddies.
>>554725012You're not doing business with steam ever again and they made sure of that, of course you will try to claim it was your decision.They just did it in a way to deliberately not give you what you were demanding (which was to be banned outright). Instead they humiliation ritualed you into begging them to remove your game as part of your tantrum about being stopped from trying to scam people.TLDR: You were thrown out of steam.
a game where you poetically ride your motorcycle to locations at night and look at your github to remind yourself you can do it
>>554724436I care about money. Gamedev is my new career. We really need a /pgdg/.
>>554724334Well he's done now. The last game I saw him working on was the most pitiful thing yet. I don't even know if this is the real gogem anymore. Maybe he got skinwalkered or whatever the equivalent is in Australia.

>>554725678spamming ecelebs and trying to annoy gamedevs is your careerthankfully we hired josh to keep your cortisol levels high (it works)
>>554724760That's called baiting btw. He baited a corporation into removing him from their premises and then spent the past 10 years crying about it. It's bizarre. And he baits arguments that he can't win for the same reason.>A masochist is someone who derives pleasure, gratification, or satisfaction from experiencing pain, humiliation, or suffering>>554723780

>>554726252neo 'gina.jpeg
>>554726252ok I'm interested
>>554726259Lolidevs are high-IQ and high-T. The schizos are the exact opposite.
>>554725429Could actually work as a good meme game
I need my next game to do well so I have dev-cred in the 'cord and can btfo the pseuds
/agdg/ is getting more conservative against lolitranses and ecelebxisters like me, it's time to leave.....

>>554725678I do care about money.
>>554725573>scam peopleeven if i were scamming anyone that is not something that was ever brought up.they were interest in one thing only. the thing they cannot abide as the mono poly.

Fuck. I just came up with an insanely good game idea. This is going to cause me to project hop again, isn't it?
>>554725678>>>/biz/pgdggo make it and take the steamies with you
Can I get a complete rundown of schizos, scammers, trannys, and fags within /agdg/? Ive lost track and I need a refresher.

>>554727697uh oh melty
>>554727845just work on your game nigga, when you release your goal is to leave this place, just let the dregs rot in here
>>554727845Look in the mirror. They're all there.
Don't forget!
Erm this can't be right, can it? Feels like my game is already close to done.>begin work on prototype>small game>month passes>play game>good amount of the gameplay experience is already there
>>554727697>>554727937>the beit poster has been shitposting for 2+ years for this joke
>>554728298They are approaching it like they would any other job: by avoiding it like the plague but still going online to complain about it.
Alright time to lock in and get a rotating cube on the heckin' screen.
I made a gun that shoots braps. The bugs don't like it.
>>554725678If we made pgdg those schizos would come there and cry despite it being neither a jobby to them. Or a hobby for that matter lol
How do I design menue games?
>>554728298I approach it like my dream job.I spend 50% of the time slacking off but I like it so much I work 12 hours a day 7 days a week
>>554728356It is a weird position I know, I have to start building out content now. We build systems in order to extend them laterally. Once the systems are in place and you can play your game for more than 20 minutes it does feel surreal and you can become aimless. At least for me I have to recommit.

>>5547278451. JoshuaTried to make an AI game, failed, gave up, went back to pushing AI like he's being paid too. Spams gore, doxxes, a selfie of him eating poop, and a troons vagina (his personal gooning content)2. Southeast AsianIdk much on him but supposedly another anon who pushes AI and failed at making a game despite having AI help him kek.3. GogemLong time agdg poster who has a game and was being a dumbass on steam, iirc he renamed his game to Half Life 3 amongst other things until he got kicked out and now has a lot of hatred towards steam for putting him in his place.4. Crumble, he may or may not count since he's tame compared to the othersHas a few video games one over 500 reviews. Last game he was working on was a paper airplane game which he supposedly self funded about half on kickstarter. Really hates one specific dev that goes by the name Trainwiz. He is otherwise tame.5. Dragon Khan clonerAnother schizo but this one doxxes and has used an IP sniffer in the past. Iirc he was stalking someone via a public google doc that detailed information until someone alerted the v3 group about him to which he reacted by hiding the document. Spams russian cartoons and projects a lot and hates anything anime. Also tries bringing up his game in conversations unrelated to his game, just browse /v/ and you'll see
>>554728942Do pigs think they're dying when they start to fall asleep? And then they wake up and are like oh shit I'm still alive.
>>554729728>Didn't make the list
>>554728786imagine the smell
>>554729728>has a game>singularof all the lies there, this one is the most offensive
>>554729728>2. Southeast AsianPedro is a 38 year old gooner forever NEET living off his Chilean parents in Pattaya City, Thailand. He kept trying to recruit goonpals into his gooncave discord for a while. He tried making Unreal pong with titties for less than a week before getting filtered and giving up.
>>554730424>Pedro is a 38 year old gooner forever NEET living off his Chilean parents in Pattaya City, Thailand.How did you guys possibly figure this out there's no way he said any of this.

>>554729915>you're CrisYou don't count, you actually gamedev and chat about gamedev. Offtopic at times but who hasn't? You're a 4chan national treasure.>you're RotateI know very little about you and you hide your games. You might be one of the anons that rages about Eric tho.>you're Dwarf Fortress 3DLol we know you have an obsession with getting a red head and having her work on your games with you and your brother, that doesn't make you a schizo.>you're the Eric fanboySilly anon only a few of the schizos in the other list hate you. You mostly wholesome post a few times a thread and disappear. And anyways I recall you saying you have a game in development.
>>554730226Number of your games currently on steam?
>>554730605>there's no way he said any of thisThat's how attention seeking NPDs act. He's posted selfies of his fat, brown, hairy body here. He's posted his life story. He's posted his Discord handle which can be connected to all the gooner sites he's signed up for using the same handle.
>>554730924
>>554731416love that lil nigga like you wouldn't believe
>>554730964Read this post out loud and ask yourself if you're not a schizo, cringe.
>>554730964wholesome post.
>>554730964you're a pedophile getting pressed when people shit on you and writing fanfiction about other schizos in the amateur gamedev generalutterly grim life
>>554731858NTA,but its called getting to know others in the community.
there's an anon here who has spent $2500 on steam store fees.
>>554730605That is tame as fuck compared to burgerkingdev
>>554732036That's a lot of steaks
>>554731969no, banter wise i would respect an objective schizo list if it included everyone not just xir's thread "enemies", calling anti pedos "schizos" is just corny
Have to go to work soon.Added this component to ECStypedef struct{ struct { u32 x, y, z; } extent; u32 mass; u32 volume; } MatterComponent;Guess I'll add a container component that looks something liketypedef struct{ Geometry geometry; // maybe a union representing a cylinder for barrels, box for treasure chest, etc. entity elements[64]; } ContainerComponent;>>554731858>you're a pedophileThat seems to come out of nowhere.

>>554732417>work soonYou're in the USA, what are you doing working at this hour?>ECSI thought this is a Unity specific thing? Did you drop engine devving and picked up Unity? Game pics?>mass, volumeWhat is the purpose of having the mass and volume for this anyways?
>>554730964toxic post.
>>554731137thats right i took down 3 games from steam and all of them got in through greenlight so i never even lost money to the bank of steam for that.your games (total) are also in that picture i take it?
whole wheat toast
>>554727845It's hard to keep track.
Gogem got on steam when getting on steam meant something and now you have nudevs attacking him for not having games on steam (which in the current day just means you wasted $100) the state.
Imagine if Nintendo started charging $100 to upload to eShop. /v/ would have a field day.
>>554729728no cris?
>>554732948>my games got removed from the game store >so i never even lost moneyTruest flop dev there ever was.
>>554733239you puttung in alot of mental gymanistics to keep not having a game
>>554732709>what are you doing working at this hour?I work a night job, I'll just leave it at that ...>I thought this is a Unity specific thing? It isn't. And there are different flavors of ECS.

Mass is for the weight of objects. I'm going to add an rpg system so something like strength stat will determine things like carry weight, equip weight or if you can even pick something up.

>>554733239you're a nodev who spams ecelebs in here all daywe wont like valve just because youre insane btw, fuck valve and fuck gabencunt
>>554733112New devs don't care about gogem lol He hasn't been relevant since he crashed out of steam back when Obama was still president.His last progress post was I don't know when, and it was red text on a black background. The end.
Googs is losing government assistance that is why he's being uppity lately.
>>554729728>try to make an AI game>fail>become AI spammers to demotivate others>because they couldn't do it
>latching onto gogem just because he seethes about steamThe desperation is real.

Latest build for Paloo Spiral is up on itch if anyone is interested. would really appreciate the feedback. this will be the last demo update for a while as we work on a side project

>>554734483He's sitting on family money, at least it seems that way. He was never interested in financial success, and no not in a based way, he deliberately made unmarketable trash as an artistic outlet which is fine, but then chose to seethe about steam and money for the rest of his life. His attitude lately is likely the result of male menopause as many of us enter middle age, those who have never been physically active are the first to pay the price.
The weak should fear the strong.
>see incremental slop shadowdropped on steam, minimal marketing>20 reviews, 60% positive, mixed rating>reviews complaining about the game shallow and repetitive>see even simpler, more shallow, more repetitive slop dropped on steam with multiple big youtubers playing it day 1, supporting the game>10k reviews, 85% positive, positive ratingdon't bother trying to appeal to steamies, they're spoileddo whatever you can to gain the attention of casual giganormiestheir standards are zero
>>554734539It's AI psychosis unfortunately and I'm not even memeing. These guys interact with LLMs without understanding what it is and it's telling them "yes! great job, we're making this game happen!" and once they realize they're making a complete abomination they are liable to have a mental breakdown. This same thing is happening to countless people in various industries. The backlash is enormous and is actually elevating competent programmers and devs around the world as they are hired to clean up these messes or to replace the devs who have to be let go when their boss realizes they've been making a huge mess and have no idea what they're doing.
>>554735214how do i avoid becoming an unc spamming ecelebs in the amateur gamedev general?
>>554735214>He was never interested in financial successHe ACTS like he's not interested. How lame would it be if he displayed interest in something he'll never obtain?

Looks great btw. Any pics of the new game or holding off on sharing for now?>>554736412How do I get a job like this is my only programming is limited to C# and C++ and self taught?
>>554736170Stay a jealous little bitch like you already are, terrified to acknowledge the existence of people who have accomplished more than you. TLDR: Just be yourself.
Thread schizos have power.
>>554736320>He ACTS like he's not interested.True. It's not like he gave his games away for free, he tried selling them on Steam and then when they flopped he deliberately starting spinning up scams to try and force Steam to ban him, which they refused to do and instead made him crawl around begging them to remove his games. He saves these emails as a trophy to imply that he won somehow. Gogem is a gigantic clown. It's honestly impressive.
>googem has been discussed in valve breakroomshe won
I thought we hated Thomas Brush.
>>554736919>Self-handicapping is a psychological strategy where people create obstacles to their own success (like procrastinating or not practicing) to protect their self-esteem from potential failure, providing an external excuse (e.g., "I failed because I didn't study") rather than attributing failure to a lack of ability>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-handicappingMany such cases.
>>554736713>How do I get a job like this is my only programming is limited to C# and C++ and self taught?I don't know but there are plenty of people with programming experience who can clean these messes up but not everyone has references (previous satisfied employers/clients). So get in asap because the number of people who become specialists in cleaning up after AI sloppers is going to explode.Your specialty will need to be triage. Damage control. Ability to digest a codebase in various projects and immediately demonstrate competence.
>>554737341I never hated him.
>>554737341we do
>>554737341I leave no room for hatred within my heart.
I am gonna remake in godot a bunch of like best games of all time, but remaking a prototype using UI based gameplay.
>>554737468>Your specialty will need to be triage. Damage control. Ability to digest a codebase in various projects and immediately demonstrate competence.AI is so good at this sort of thing. This sounds like an easy job.
>>554737685cris can you just stick with one thing for once?
>>554737685Remaking games in godot and making tutorials out of it would get you some good views.
>>554737859The games I want to make I can't make them.So I have to make games I don't want to make.
>>554737928I will only watch tutorials narrated in the highest caste brahmin ascents. No one wants to listen to some dalit columbian speak.

>>554737673lol this pic
>>554737453>providing an external excuseLiterally all of the steam seethies lol It's like why do you guys seriously care about steam this much you don't even have a game. "I can't make a game because steam will take 30% of my $10,000,000" for their not-a-game which doesn't exist

got my weighted random function in GameMaker to work. feeling pretty good. probably really inefficient, BUT I DON'T CARE RAHHHH GOT IT WORKING. WE'RE YESDEVING THIS SHIT
>>554738272It makes even more sense when you consider gogem used his games to get himself into the news before. Steam did a little intel check on him and realized they were dealing with a professional troublemaker.
cant wait to make it and then abandon this grim place

>>554737341I think he's ok. his art advice while basic is solid. I like his interviewees. I don't like that he chose to sell courses, but I understand the desperation; 2 kids and a wife to feed, game sales slowing...
>>554738762He did it multiple times throughout his career. Steam was the first to pull him into a side room where nobody could see the tantrum. To this day this 4D chess is what has him so mindbroken about steam.

>>554746680If they have original dialogue recorded in their native language they need to revert to that. It's hard to convince companies to let go of the sunken cost of labor that already went into using this AI slop though.The AI voice acting just hits you like a ton of bricks and is so hard to ignore. Without it the game is 10x better.

I'm a steamie, I make slop!I don't care if all my games will flop!Gabencunt can take my pay!And I won't care, that's the steamie way!
>>554748929>we cancelled 7 or 8 gameslolThese guys are on drugs. I can listen to him talk about standard game dev advice, it's just common sense stuff or useful info sometimes, but I'm over Bitemegames as a studio. I'm not interested in hearing the larping anymore.
Fucking steamies....
>>554748929I thought he was gay
>>554749526reminds me of bokube
>>554749328The cancellations aren't the problem. Their studio simply doesn't have any skilled enough developers to carry the team. Their visuals are limited entirely by what they can buy from an asset store, and their gameplay systems are limited to whatever Thomas is capable of programming (not much). William is just dead weight.
>>554749697Their only successful game they made with that exact setup though. SO you're wrong, they are capable of making games, they're just doing drugs or something inexplicably to cause them to become total retards who can't get anything done now. Marnix needs a game to be put back on duty as the level designer and just churning out levels like they did the for the unicycle game, and they need to get something made. It's already too late for me to take them seriously even if they made a successful game this quarter or something, they've already demonstrated a tendency to implode after any meager success.
>>554723542I made a housie
>>554750181nice
It's weird to feel actually frustrated with someone I don't know like Marnix just watching him make multiple 20 minute lectures about how his company is sucking ass. How can you talk that long about your failing company. I would have shuttered that business months ago if things are really this bleak.
>>554750181Good job
>>554750042their problem is that they are trend chasers with no actual vision or game design skills. It's all about making low effort slop as fast as possible to try and hit the lottery. so when a new hot genre pops up they're probably trying to project hop and make some derivative trash. you could clearly see it happening with that 2 player carrying game he was making and got buttmad when another actual competent and skilled dev made the same game but with actual effort put in
>>554750042>they've already demonstrated a tendency to implode after any meager success.Japanese girlfriends are pretty high maintenance you know, you wouldn't get it.
>>554750181Actually soulful and not in a backhanded way
>>554750042It could also be drinking. Some guys forget this but alcohol is literally a poison and can cause brain damage and make you a dysfunctional retard who is miserable to work with, but who thinks they are actually super competent and a "functional alcoholic". This deterioration can happen quickly in a matter of months.To really excel with gamedev and I imagine with a business, you have to be 110% operational and sharp as fuck. Something is wrong with bitemegames.
>>554750181/v/jeets will look at this and still won't buy it, instead they'll somehow spin it to be about trannys anyway.
>>554750409>their problem is that they are trend chasers with no actual visionI just think that's a copout. You don't come up with 8 games to cancel by not having vision. They are brainstorming games and starting work on it and then spiraling into the abyss like so many dysfunctional companies which all die in the end because they need to die, because that's how business works. These guys have become legit frauds at this point and if I were working with them I would cut and run and not look back. That said, not being in their position makes me feel cozy af. I enjoy being able to commentate on this situation and not have to actually be in that mess. Solodev rules.
>>554750409>their problem is that they are trend chasers with no actual vision or game design skills. It's all about making low effort slop as fast as possible to try and hit the lottery.How do people like these even get into game development? I always thought people picked up making games because there weren't enough games in the genre or style they liked, so they wanted to make more. At least that's how it was for me.
>>554750795Nah. You're just making up random shit. They just have the exact same problem as most retards here: they're severely lacking in the necessary skills. On top of that, they're also feel very rushed to make income ASAP, leaving them no time to develop their own skills.>>554751124They ideaguy up a game based on an asset pack and some trend and immediately announce the game. Then, they go on to prototype the game and realize that it's not particularly fun and/or there's some technical hurdle that'll take an unacceptable amount of time to overcome, and so they immediately give up.
>>554751226>How do people like these even get into game development?That's what I'm wondering too.And how much adderall were they snorting to make the unicycle game? It's their only successful game and they made it in a month. I'm thinking they totally fried their brains on that one game and it's over for them lolTime to get a real job. Not even shitposting. Thanks for the entertainment and RIP
>>554751226Bing "Forge Industry". That was their passion project.
Now this here this is hug crabbing. "don't worry about it bro"I say yes worry. These guys are cooked. You don't need gamedevs who ship games to see this. There's nothing to be gained from "ignore the haters" right now. Bitemegames is basically DONE and Marnix has been kicking the dirt on their own grave for a while now. That's what disturbed me so much with the Pripyat "game" like wtf are you doing. It's over.
>>554751295>On top of that, they're also feel very rushed to make income ASAPThey've been eating their own dick for the past 8 months. They're not in a hurry. They're as dysfunctional and doomed as any "company" (it's a small team) can be, I've seen it a thousand times, I've dealt with it personally. Don't work with people like this and don't feel sorry for them. Business is pragmatic it's not about feelings. Gamedevs who cancel 8 projects in under a year are not game developers.
>>554751678Why don't I see you guys getting involved so much with your fellow AGDGers who flopped?
>>554751295>They ideaguy up a game based on an asset pack and some trend and immediately announce the game. Then, they go on to prototype the gameThat's exactly how coke users or amphetamine users behave. lolThey will literally start an LLC on a whim about some stupid thing they never actually do anything with. These guys are tweakers.
look who I found
>>554751994>you guysit's one single hindubecause they're not e-celebs
>>554751416if it's their passion project, why don't they keep working on it until it's good?? the reviews are only "mixed" on steam. that means there were actually some people who liked it!!! they could make the graphics not look god awful, work on some of the suggestions from the (detailed) negative reviews, and spend 8 months making an actually worthwhile game, instead of cancelling 8 stupid ideas.
>>554748929Love this comment.
https://vocaroo.com/16LYAJaiQqGWproompting my game's soundtrack is gamedev
>>554751986Canceling 8 games in under a year is far more GMI behavior than retards who spend several years on the same unproven game idea. They are currently in an art low, and people who are capable of reaching an art low have far more potential for growth than perpetual art high retards like Cris, which is most of you here. It's a shame really that they didn't leave themselves enough runway.>>554752092I've never met a coke user, but having this random crashout over some no name youtube personality on a mongolian basket weaving forum is how I'd imagine an interaction with a coke user.>>554752357They're never going to be able to make it a good game because they don't have the skills or the vision.
Consumer sentiment around AI is so negative that CEOs are begging people to like AI. The AI disclosure is the kiss of death which is actually bad because now AI sloppers have everything to gain by lying and nothing to lose.
the feeling i get from marnix is a person who wants to make it as an indie but skips all the steps. why didn't he at least try to make a small game or hobby projects on itch before starting a studio?
>>554751994I don't think agdg has any ecelebs like that. A youtuber who opens themself up to be discussed about or critiqued is different for me. This is what I as the viewer enjoy.
>>554752592>excuses>no u>excusesSorry pal don't know what to tell you.
>>554752706>as the viewer>as the cuckoldftfy
>>554752880>excusesSkill issues are not just an excuse. They're a very real, crushing reality for many of you. It really doesn't matter how much effort or passion you think you have if you don't have the skills to back it.
>>554752661I have to remind myself these are new devs who jumped in and set themselves up to larp as professionals. But even then, the idea of someone doing this for 3-4 years and still being this dysfunctional makes me lose sympathy. I would not work with a team like that.
>>554752623>AI sloppers have everything to gain by lying and nothing to lose.The disclosure will be probably gone soon anyway whenever Sweeneg adds his AI nonsense into Unreal or if Valve uses generative AI more extensively (gabencunt has a very high opinion of AI slop just like any billionaire so keep that in mind).Valve already changed it to exclude AI concept art and AI code for Deadlock.
i'm beginning to actually want to play my game. beyond playtesting.how weird.
>>554744592>>554744883>>554745074>>554745947oh. hah. HAHAHAHAH, oh fuck, even f*goon stupid "unique" dragon is getting subsidized by randos. You can't convince me that dev didn't see a f*goon's game and decided to clone it but better. His constant spamming of /v/ threads lead to hijacking his game. If it's vibecoded and assets are generated by AI then it's a double whammy. It's just... beautiful.
>>554753037Nice try. I'm watching them cancel their own games, not mine.
>>554753490You need to cancel your game, Bokudev.
>>554753429This is just proof that you shouldn't share your game on 4chan because chinkjeets scour this board to copy and/or steal games.
>>554753192>whenever Sweeney adds his AI nonsense into UnrealThere's no guarantee that will happen. Don't forget, AI has been a long string of mistaken hype for the past 2 years. It's not looking great.
>>554753321This almost entirely propels me>be playtesting>want to do <thing>>wait, shit, I haven't implemented that yet>back to deving
>>554753540True but not me.
>>554753750>There's no guarantee that will happenI'm just basing it off Sweeney's recent actions. I came to that belief because of his talk of getting the disclosure removed (why would he want that in the first place if it literally doesn't affect him or his games?)Maybe he's hoping to catch the last investment hype train by doing this, or get some of that nvidia CA$HMONEY.
>>554753630https://vocaroo.com/1mOcUFZfTXgyI want a jeet to steal my game so I can play it
>>554753630The second you show your game on the internet, it doesn't matter where you post it, that's supposed to be when you are already serious with the game and have a prototype or demo.
>>554752592need to remake this graph for AI art, but I'm not sure how to render a graph where both lines stay at the bottom forever
are item systems protected by copyright?say I copy the entire world of warcraft item generation, am I in trouble?say I copy the item definitions too (atk/def/hp/effect), only changing their names. am i cooked?
>>554753429>You can't convince me that dev didn't see a f*goon's game and decided to clone it but better.Well it's not a clone is it, it's vastly different. That's why it's a shitpost, and fun to point out similarities but these are not comparable games. Fygoons is supposed to be charmingly 'retro' in a weird way and in every way it's not comparable to a AA game like Khan. He clearly knows this or he would have meltied the first time he saw this game.
>>554754340Mechanics are not copyrightable. It's free real estate. Very specific implementation details are sometimes patented, but cases where patent trolls actually tried to enforce them are extremely extremely rare.
>>554752479Brutal.
>>554752092This guy is smelling what I'm smelling. Why are they not able to spend $50 on art assets? What are the technical hurdles? So vague. All this business talk with none of the traits of a real business. Spend money to make money. TRY. Don't just cancel cancel cancel. Something doesn't add up.
Now that was some good eceleb slop.
>>554754664thanks anon
Is there an anime artstyle that looks good in 3d and pbr and also isn't cutesy childish looking?
>>554748929Slop is pretty easy to make I really don't see what their problem is. Why haven't they been pumping out synty multiplayer survival crafting games or VS clones? Those blow up all the time.

Vibe coding is a trap.
It's so pathetic looking at the zukjeet talk about its ecelebs to itself. What a sad existence.
>>554756419Vide coding, as in letting the computer do everything for you, is a trap but using AI as a coding assistant is the future.

The new jannies on /v/ banished the AI and drawthread generals to /vg/, think they'll do the same for the (near) daily gamedev threads?

>>554756547https://itch.io/jam/bigmode-game-jam-2026>551 JoinedThe jam is a competition for a single persons attention.My concern would be going up against hundreds of professional devs all who are digging up prototypes and strong builds and tossing them out as a jam game. And because of how likely this is, I almost have zero interest in whatever does come from the jam, the jam itself is basically a mini itch.io. It's like competing against the entire website.

>>554754447no, you're wrong. Fygoon settled for his "retro" look because he can't do anything better. You should've seen his sketches, most of them were detailed. Right now he's coping that it's his "artstye" when in reality he can't do anything better.Also design is just too similar. Red wings, armor, schizo lore, it really feels like someone was so offended with fygoon's shitty behavior on /v/ that he decided to mock him and build a whole game in spirit of frydarian tale but just different enough that people can't be too suspicious.Face it, fygoon got fygooned out
>>554757986>no, you're wrong. Fygoon settled for his "retro" look because he can't do anything betterSure but it's kind of irrelevant once everyone told him it looked like 90s animations and he just said "yes exactly", so he took ownership of that aesthetic and it doesn't matter anymore if it's deliberate or not.
My daily blogpost. Ignore, skip, filter.I was trying to fix a small but unacceptable bug in my previous game so I ended up having to recreate the entire project. Since it now uses a new version of everything, I need to test it thoroughly before I release the update. Sounds easy but I already found some new bugs.I really need to stop eating sweets but these donuts were on sale very cheap. That's it, I won't be eating any more dessert this month. I've almost run out of money anyway.

>>554749697Well of the fundamental skills they pretty much only have>programmingAll while the skills their team doesnt have are>art>music/sfx (easy to supplment with assets which they've done)>game design (idea guy)>>554750409No vision, yeah. They dont even need an artist to succeed. Sure its harder as a programmer only but just having the idea guy trait is good enough provided you know how to use it. However the cloning strategy isn't essentially a bad idea but it does require being able finesse it right.
new colorscheme i will be using. ayu
I could turn byteme games into a million dollar studio
Does anybody have that chart showing total game amounts released on Steam with Greenlight and Direct marked?
>>554759712>No vision, yeah. They dont even need an artist to succeed.They should have spent some time in the past few years learning to do the basics in blender or something. At least have the ability to modify and make something new of existing assets. Just anything at all. They have so many ways now to make excuses for failure while they just keep making money from youtube talking about how they're failing. But they won't actually fix any of the issues they keep mentioning or try to acquire the skills or get someone on board with the skills. People are out here succeeding with no money, no teammates, and the willingness to learn skills. Marnix said he doesn't want biteme to be seen as "pussies" lol which I think he knows, as far as gamedev goes they are simply being weak.
>>554751678I remember seeing the video and reading some comments. A lot of the hate I see towards them doesn't even seem to be genuine and by that I mean it seems to be coming from people that solely go there because they hate Biteme. Though I believe the reason they seem so rushed now is becuase they've been at this for like 4 years now. It's pretty hard to stomach you've thrown that much time at this with no real great success. This will likely he the year the quit should they not even get a 500 review game. Though 500 is low enough that I can see them just shutting down on a high note lel.>Marnix: Alright guys we got 500 reviews, what do we think?>Thomas & William: Screw being gamedevs, we cut our losses with this minor success and move on.>Marnix: Agreed.>Montage of them living it up for one night in Japan as they are now free of the sunk cost chains of gamedev >>554751994Because they don't give much information in the first place? I mean I keep screaming at Maid Cafe dev and he ignored me at first. I screamed some more and it looks like he is doing something at least. I hope Wasteland Bites dev is listening to me, I put some detailed info on what he should being doing as well. Otherwise I know little of them. And some other devs as well.
>>554751124I still wish I had a team. Just me and one or two other anons. Having that could make up a lot for what I lack and slows me during development. The amount of times I've spent hours upon hours making art only to not use it in the end is tiresome. Some of the more complex programming stuff also gets in my way. Just a big enough team where a game that would take me 3 years would suddenly drop down to 2 years. >>554751226I don't even remember why I did. But I do remember I was bent on making my own engine. Am I glad I dropped that idea, it'd be terrible if I ended up just engine devving for years where not only do I not have a game but I also have an unfinished engine. Imagine being sunk costed into engine devving and you can't let go for a prebuilt engine. If that was my situation I'd give up entirely, at least with a sunk cost gamedev you can reapply your skills into a new game.
>>554761639>Though I believe the reason they seem so rushed now is becuase they've been at this for like 4 years now. It's pretty hard to stomach you've thrown that much time at this with no real great success.
>>554757206Yeah there is no way they can stop devs with many prototypes from pulling one up and just furthering it during the 7 days. Also considering what is on the line the 5 man size team limit doenst mean anything. If getting published by them means riches then a 20 man team can conveniently leave out the 15 other memebers. Wow they win and get published? Then they pitch for a bigger budget to get a 20 man team....oh wow they have exactly 15 people to bring on immediately kek. I mean come on, this is potentially millions of dollars on the line if you get published.
>>554750795I doubt they drink excessively, they don't exactly give that vibe. They had what, 1 drink, in a bedside stream when Marnix and Thomas were in Japan eating various food? I think it's just really a lack of ideas and an eye for whether a game is fun or interesting. >>554756805Beautiful. Aggy daggy will heal once those uppity devs are forced to come home instead instead of just marketing to /v/ users and complaining about funpostimg being the problem and somehow always ignoring the few schizos who spam.
>>554761285Might just be that they've been in it too long and are getting burnt out? Sure feels like they'll be throwing the towel soon, no harm. Better to throw it in now than to remain unsuccessful devs 5 years from now.
>>554761285I looked at their comments and I don't see any hate I don't know if they're deleting comments or what they're talking about regarding haters. Pripyat was an awful display of hubris and people saying "don't make this game" Marnix is out of line if he's implying that was hate.I don't dislike Bitemegames I enjoy some of their stuff but they are reminding me more and more of the worst kind of people to work with and where there's smoke there's fire. I think they might actually suck.
Anybody who still ignores the indian e-celeb youtube addict as a problem is a retard. The last 8 posts are all off-topic e-celeb shit, it's just as bad as the AI spam and it's all the same indian talking to itself.

Now this is some comfy ecelebing https://youtu.be/yElUctgSySE&t=132
>>554764073And this pic. Also your difficulty rating seems to mean nothing after easy based off the videos I've seen. Like seriously the hard difficulty feeling easier than the medium difficulty? Game needs better balancing on this. Also include all enemies in that one book, I saw so many fail to realize that one guy being a ghoul in line means you should close the shutters.
>>554764503ah, mustve not seen thisthe difficultys a bit fucked in the demo since i made the levels a bit harder for replayability, theyre easier in the main gamealso theres some hard areas you cant avoid in the final game, so youll have to brave through themsome people fly through others tell me easy is hard enoughThank you, im gonna have to do a review of the areas, new demo drop sometime in the weekend
>>554764694>being a ghoulbeing behind a ghoulI know the tutorial showed how to deal with that type but it seems most don't remember
In? Locked.
>>554641248>>554641434I didn't make progress on the level editing tool for 2 reasons:1) Turns out just the default Unity editor with grid snapping on is passable2) I was busy experimenting and figuring out a good way to handle the general architecture of the gameI'll come back to the level editor once I'm at the stage where I can reliably move the game pieces around and have everything act more or less as I expect it to.
Sorry for not having posted any Progress the last few Days, I had quite a few nasty bugs to clean out.Anyway, here's the mostly, on 2 Faces of the smalles Testlevel a vertex isn't in the right Position, but in the Position of another one correctly displayed BSP Volumes for the Leaves, empty and solid ones. They are currently inverted, and I haven't checked their UVs yet, but at least finally the Bugs seem to be gone.Normals I'll clean up when I clean up Vertexcounts etc.What's your Progress been over the last few Days AGDG?
making a very unique game
>>554764786>some people fly through others tell me easy is hard enoughYeah I noticed that. I saw like 1 or 2 competent youtuebrs just do really well. While 1 girl just gave up after the second or third attempt at medium difficulty lol

>>554771020First experience with open source?>>554740960>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPywmkMN82EGood news is you can fix it yourself you just have to recompile the engine from source code. And then you can be a hero and submit that bugfix.
Any advice for someone who's curious about game development? Where to start and stuff like that.
Anons, bottom line, if you're in here for the money first and foremost this isn't the general for you, since not a lot of people here are sharing their mobile slop ideas with a built-on shop.
>>554771896nah not here for money, just wanted to eventually try and see how the process works as a whole.
>>554771896*taps the sign*>>554725678>>554728298
>>554771697focus on a single skill, like don't try to learn everything unless you wanna spend 10+ years grinding.Separate the steps of making the assets with the code step.Use placeholders, code a prototype, then replace those placeholders with the content.Separate your dream idea into smaller prototypes where you learn a single task, then just copy paste that into your main project.Also, learn to take rest and be patient.Also, have fun, gamedev is supposed to be fun.Also, make games for fun, not for money.Also instead of getting it perfectly, aim for good enough.

>>554772178>>554772351Figured as much, thanks. As for coding is there anywhere I should look into if I have little to no experience with it?
>>554771896profitdevs should focus on marketing, shitty games make millions if they're marketed correctlyif you want money, just make an MVP, and then spend the rest of your time focusing on a marketing strategy that would work best for your specific game
>>554772493My first language was javascript and it's the loosest language and super easy to learn what variables and functions are with it. Unity uses C# but you don't necessarily have to start with that as a language but it would probably be best. I'm not sure if this is the best way to learn it, but you'll need to spend a day or two doing lessons like this https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-c-sharp-introductionProgramming is a life long thing, you can't learn it in 20 minutes. But you can learn a surprising amount of the basic concepts in a few hours.
>>554773180Also learning with javascript first just to learn variables and functions is nice because you can actually write the code directly in your web browser developer tools. Immediate access to a coding terminal like that. Whereas with C# you will need to install visual studio first and stuff. It's more intimidating.
>was able to post advice before pong poster Good guys win today lads.
>>554773180>>554773326much appreciated
>>554772178>Also, make games for fun, not for money.Stop... right there GPT.Did they ask you HOW TO HAVE FUN? Or did they ask you how to make a game?
There will be NO pocket watching on MY watch.
>>554772493my honest advice is use godot, because is easy enough already to not be an issue.If you wanna like improve in a short time your coding skill, my advice would be to like make a 2D mario in pygame.Why?Because python is a begginer language and making something like a 2D mario will teach stuff like delta time, data structures, game loop, arrays, buffer.As for books, get the C programming language book to learn basic C language grammar, which is the basics of most modern languages syntax.Then look up a book on data structures, I remember reading one in Java.After that, read a book on basic algorithms like sort, bubble sort, tree traversal.Then read Clean code and clean architecture from uncle bob.Also read a book on game patterns.Both uncle bob clean architecture and design and game patterns will lift you from basic script copy paster into a not mediocre dev.Also, a book on optimization will teach you what not to do to avoid slow boated modern dev shit.Also, a book on game architecture will teach you the behind scenes works of most engines.Also, get a book on OpenGL and computer graphics, it really helps with shit like shaders.Also, get a book on calculus I, linear algebra, trigonometry, physics I, HS algebra.Also, learn the math functions of your game engine script, learn lerp, lerp angle, look at, look from position, rotate, move and collide, abs, min, max, clamp, randf, randi, shuffle, has method, typeof, floor, ceil, str, int, float, vector2, vector3I know this is a lot, but is like a mini college CS curriculum without the fluff of a real one. You don't need to go full enginedev C++ autismo, but these are like the fundamental topics of CS to be a better programmer than 99% of indie shitters.
Make fascist games

>>554773991uncle bob is a fucking moron and SOLID principles are a shortcut to bloated enterprise shitcode
ALSO get two more books

>>554773991how do i finish a game after learning all that?
>>554775227the only principle you need to know is KISS
Good morning.Time to make some coffee and then some proggy.
>>554774984The heroes journey can be learned in a single picture anon. That's slightly less information than reading 12 books.
>>554775335learn to separate your dream idea into diferent modes.Like separate your dream idea into combat, dungeons, towns, world map, menues, story custcenes, scene transitions.Then learn to code each aspect with a smaller prototype.Like make a basic game that is just a 3D character on a flat plane, that kills 3D monsters that randomly spawn in the level, infinitelly.Then make a separate prototype where a 3D character walks in a level or a random level.Then after that, just copy paste scripts from both projects into one.
>>554775351DRYis the single principle behind programming languages and the doorway to understanding layers of abstraction.
>>554775606>Retard thinks thisThe hero's journey is much deeper and writing is much more complex than the hero's archetype.There's also shit like the 36 dramatic situations, the japanese 4 scenes structures, the 7 scenes structure, the 5 and 3 arcs structures, the joke structure.Also, you need to read a lot of religion, mythology, literature, history, philosophy, political theory, to know what to fill the story with.
good game ideas come from the abstraction of personal experiencesyou're autistic? you like trains?https://store.steampowered.com/app/3656800/Train_Sim_World_6/one billion dollarsjust like thingsyou can easily come up with good ideas if you have your own experiences to build upon
>>554775845sometimes repeating some code is a lot nicer than abstracting ittrying to abstract and generalize everything unnecessarily is more likely to just turn into bloat and vastly overcomplicate the code
>>554775894>the 36 dramatic situations, the japanese 4 scenes structures, the 7 scenes structure, the 5 and 3 arcs structures, the joke structureGAY
>>554723542nortubel stop drawing big booty shotas and make game
Many well-known games originated from developers abstracting ordinary personal experiences into repeatable mechanics rather than inventing ideas from pure fiction. Pokémon emerged from childhood insect collecting, translated into systematic creature discovery and collection. The Legend of Zelda came from wandering forests and caves as a child, abstracted into open exploration and hidden secrets. Minecraft reflects playing with physical building toys, reduced to modular construction rules. Stardew Valley draws on routine, low-pressure rural fantasies and turns them into cyclical daily systems. Papers, Please converts real exposure to immigration bureaucracy into constrained decision-making mechanics. Across these cases, the pattern is consistent: personal habits, environments, or frustrations are simplified into clear systems, then scaled into games. This suggests that viable game ideas often come from examining one’s own lived experiences and identifying interactions that can be formalized, repeated, and made legible to players.
>>554775657I don't think I should make my dream idea as my first finished project. I want to get good at finishing games(of various sizes) before I commit to a 'dream game'
>>554775606stop using tvtropes as a guide also not reading the basic nerdy pop culture shit
It's all right here.
>>554776194you should make smaller games first or create a path of prototypes, like pong, then breakout, then flappy bird, until you can later do like mario 64 and Metal gear.
>>554776319
>>554776139they also come from devs being inspired by media they like mgs was kojima mixing movies he liked and doom was id mixing shit like evil dead, alien and dnd but of course the company known for being anal over mechanic patents, emulation and fangames would want to go "ah life experiences" to the masses, as if they're the ghibli studio of gaming

>>554776841I would play this if it were giant alien assholes. you could fit all sorts of gameplay in there
>>554776617no because that's a terrible experience that nobody wants to replicate
>>554776931Practice, basically a bigger project is like lifting 500 pounds.The people that do it are because they have 5 years of practice, not one month.Also, it depends on psychology, some people are better suited to long term projects.
>>554776812doesn't seem to be. there's ultraman trading cards/pogs the creator liked I guess

Give it to me straight aggy, do you think talent exists?
>>554775315If this thread had ids I'd wager at least a third of the thread is just eric schizo chimping out, on a daily basis he does that btw, what a "life" that is.
>>554781017talent is probably a recipe of sortsright circumstances, right abilities, being able to pursue what interests you and learn at a good rateit's like a potential that can come out, or remain forever hiddenbut nobody with talent got where they are without putting in the work first
>>554781017Innate talent does exist, like professional athletes needing to be tall and strong. But in most cases it doesn't matter and I believe barring a disability of some kind anyone can learn to do anything and be reasonably good at it.
>>554781017Yes. it's rarer than you think though. most examples of 'talent' is just the result of passion and time.
>>554781336>you're brown saar you are brownI'm not brown, pedro and I'm not indian. Your obsession over this insecurity you have from being not white is pathetic.You will never be a gamedev and you don't know what samefagging is.
>>554782068>incoherent schizo babbleTake your meds and stop shitposting a small community of gamedev like it's your job, you're wasting your life for nothing.
>>554782372You will never be a gamedev and you don't know what samefagging is.
>>554781390>>554781748>>554781935What if someone has no talent for game dev, should they try to do something else or just push through it?
>>554782529??? Meds.
>>554782815You will never be a gamedev.
>>554782805the thing about being talented at game dev is that game dev is an umbrella term for many talents in onegame dev is programming, music, writing, art, game design, etcwhich is why most people form teams, you'd have to be at least okay at all of that shit if you want to be a solo dev which is a big ask for most peopleideally, you find a team that fills in the gaps in your own talentand if you're talented at nothing? well, you better pick a skill tree and stick to it, you're not developed enough
>>554782805you don't have to be the best to have fun making games. making games is something even a child can do.
>>554782805most people can become good at any skill if they study and practice.What most people call legendary talent, is usually guys that spent 50 hours every day as a kid learning a skill.But to be honest, you don't need talent, you can become bettter than 99% of people with study and hard work.Also, you don't need to be the best in the world in a skill.Is not dificult to learn art, music, code, writing, if your goal is reasonable and you don't try to like surpass the rest of the world.
>>554782967You don't need to think outloud, we already know you have no game and just spam xitter screencaps and youtube videos here all day every day, you're wasting your life remember that I told you that. Anyway, back to dev enjoy shitting up a small gamedev community!!

Is using a pixelization meme filter a sign of a hack fraud?

>>554786786Yes. Big bugs with weakspots that you need different ammo types to deal with, also bugs that buff the bugs around them with pheromones if you kill them in the wrong way.>>554791652You can do that if you shoot the big cannon down the bughole, vid related. The problem is there's usually a bug coming out of the hole that eats the round.
>>554792995will there be bugs that can attack your gunship?
>>554791132>I don't think this is very likely.depends on your marketing skills
>>554779402me in the back
>>554791460>seems odd choosing to be a gamedev if you don't think you can make the best game in the worldso there are two types of gamedevs, odd ones and delusional ones?
Friendly reminder that 90% of your marketing is your product. Just like make a good fun game that people want to play.
>>554793492Well you might like making games, in which case just like make game. But you might also like playing games and that's a big part of the reason why you want to make games because you have some ideas you think can further gaming. But if you think your games will be inferior to everything on the market then why make them? Just play everyone else's games
>>554791132>in order to make a minimum-wage-level living from gamedev, my game has to be among the 5% most successful on Steam that year.You can thank gabencunt for doing that, steamie boy.Now, your $100.Hand 'em over.
>>554793995You know Steam doesn't charge you if people buy Steam keys from other sites right? There's 0 cost shipping on Steam other than the fact that the majority of people prefer that platform so they take a cut to provide the best service in the business. But if you want to ship it on Steam and elsewhere that's completely fine.

Why does ConcernedApe need an RTX 5090 in his office computer if all he's doing is making the most simple 2D games?
abandoning a project is a form of deep disrespect towards your own previous efforts and struggles.it's like you build a 60% of a house and instead of your future self building the other 40% it just nukes the whole house.and then the new self gets desperate and builds another 60% house and the new new self nukes it again.basically generational poverty, but in one life. because your future self doesn't complete what previous self has built for it.
>>554797265correct, I'm not a happy person
In my game, you have to kill americunts.That means I can't sell my game in America now.
>>554797265I abandon nonviable projects
>>554797265Two beginners build what they though would be 60% of their first house. The foundations are cracked, uneven, and leaking. Anything being built on top falls apart and causes further damages to the foundation. Anon one has enough wherewithal to realize that this is a problem and goes off to build a new foundation with his new experience building houses. Anon two laughs at at anon one for giving up as he watches yet another one of his wall fall over.
>>554797898>beginnersyou'll probably abandon your project even if you dev'ed for 20 years. it's a commitment issue and not a skill issue.
>>554795905>>554796960Alright I'll bite, you break something recognizable and pleasing down to a set of characteristics, you generate noise and discard the unwanted aspects until it fits the criteria you like. That doesn't implicitly mean you're guiding an algorithm with intentionality, plenty of games generate height maps and terrain types/biomes with perlin noise with little to no tweaking. How is that different from prompting the AI and discarding unwanted code or assets and then going back to tweaking the prompts again or do alterations yourself until you get what you want? There's a plagiarism argument to be made but hardly different from the types of photobashing and heavy reference use + straight up stolen algorithms devs get up to. Or just buying a tree generator or something from an asset store that spits out trees on a button press.

Is there a worse jobby than gamedev in terms of skills vs reward?Like you need to be in the top 5% of those who have finished a game to earn as much as a 16 year old at their first job bussing tables. And the skills you need to be in the top 5% of gamedevs are equal to those of being an industry professional gamedev.
>>554795545the part where you are posting ecelebs in here every day while producing no game, just do it and i will just follow your advice
>>554799559I get that, but how? I tried following a tutorial, but I always get a zero vector.
>>554775360kill yourself
>>554799565looks nice and fun. good luck with your game
>>554799694Do you even like developing games? Making money is great, I hope my game makes a lot of money, but at the end of the day I'm doing this because it's fun and I want to make people have fun.
>>554799752don't you need to enable the move action manually?
>>554799565
>>554799937have you ever finished a game? or are you only doing prototypes or not even that?consider that a game at 50% of development looks and plays about the same as at 100% of development and has most of the content. which part of gamedev do you think is fun between those two points?
>>554799694>Is there a worse jobby than gamedev in terms of skills vs reward?>Like you need to be in the top 5% of those who have finished a game to earn as much as a 16 year old at their first job bussing tables.

>>554800395oh I think I see it, you use FindAction on "Move" but you need to find it through the parent I think "Player/Move" maybe?
>>554799565Thanks and good luck, yeah I understand most of the thread is the same schizo shitposters (Eric schizo, Joshua, Betz, "lolidev" shitposter, etc) doing the same thing over and over, /agdg/ is one of the oldest /vg/ generals so I guess hitting a critical mass of nodev schizos was bound to happen.
>>554799704>i will just follow your adviceYou and I both know that's not true. You will continue to believe whatever you want to believe, regardless of what kind of feedback reality presents to you.
>>554801080Nvm, I commented out the OnEnable() and OnDisable() functions and now it works. Or at least I think this is how I fixed it. Does this have documentation?

>>554799848>>554800608>>554801734>>554802523Thank you anons. I've been posting here since 2018 or so and definitely just can't stomach the personalities anymore, on top of the idea of continuing to post here while my game is signed to a medium fish pubby that takes their optics seriously.I remember when I could host gotad games here and meet all kind of cool devs here, many of which have migrated to the discords and/or made it. I'm not sure if there's the same community cohesion anymore on the threads...I'll drop keys and shit for games that I release this year when the time comes. I really hope the cool devs here carry to torch in a positive way, and at least keep the demo days going.God speed anons

>>554803157I also notice the omission of a certain green dragon cunt as well. Definitely not related right?
>>554799694You only need to be around top 25%-10% skill in any single gamedev discipline to get a job at a studio and make a comfortable first world white collar salary. Solo gamedev is a jobby for the top 0.01% of society.

With all this talk of schizo and people leaving I think it'd be fun next thread to do an /agdg/ lore iceberg. What do we think? What should be on it?

Yep!
>>554723639Genuine question:Why doesn't anyone combine Minecraft with Elden Ring?The same buildy-crafty mechanics with the voxel world but with Elden Ring style combat/mechanics.
>>554806886Bing "Hytale"
>>554806307when i told /agdg/ that it was using AI a few momths ago i was laughed at. who is laughing now? i even made a 1min AI recreation of their icons, guy was using midjourney and then filtering it with "pixel" filters
>Ah, that changes everything.I asked Copilot, Claude, Gemini and ChatGPT whether I should reuse the code from my old (very similar) game or write new code and they all told me to write everything from scratch and only reuse modular self contained code.
>>554806886because it takes as much time and resources to make as Elden Ring * Minecraft
>>554807067>first person combatLooks more Skyrim-like than Elden Ring desu
>>554803379Bnnuy...
>>554807104Go after Mount & Blade 2 Bannerlord: War Sails next, all of the loading screens are AI, the dialogue text and voice lines are also AI.I'm gonna go ahead and guess after 4 or 5 examples have been made and publishers threaten to leave the platform they're gonna do a 180 on their policy
>>554806886I never played it but I thought Enshrouded was basically that?
>>554807236>Hytale's funding history includes a significant early investment from Riot Games, which acquired the studio in 2020 and reportedly invested heavily, with some sources suggesting over $100M or even $140MSure, /agdg/ studios would love to make you your Minecraft x Elden Ring game. That'll be $100m. Will that be cash or credit?
>>554807542yeah the guy has been making it for 12 years or something, supposedly Riot wanted it made in C++ but the devs couldn't do it without breaking everything because they only understand Java lol

>>554799009Yep. A completely new dev is going to have a lot of problems with the new input system, the old one made way more sense. This new one lacks so much in the documentation. Despite the new one being around for years now. I've been using Unity for years and only recently jumped to the new input system. It was such a hassle to get it working right and I still wonder if it even is considering the workaround I had to use to get something working as intended.
Why nobody has made a battle royale chess, but before each turn, there's like a small VN screen with a summary in text of what happened in the turn, then you see the map board new state, then hit next and the game autosimulates the next update loop, until there's a single surviving piece.

>>554808440can't blame people for not wanting to play an inferior product
>>554807104>>554806307I don't understand why you're so obsessed with this game in particular. Did you back it with money or something? There's still plenty of AI slop games on Steam, some still undisclosed. And AAA will continue to get away using it undisclosed.
>>554808639I'm going for something that looks similar to John Lin's engine.I'm seriously going to wow this entire general.And yes, I intend to stay here too even after I get famous.I love this place.
>>554808171ask your cow god
>>554808546why are you taking so long with it? you're just shitposting right? AI should be able to one shot it
>>554761883Yeah same, no success and many years at this.
>>554808810and by stay I mean 'hang out in /agdg/', I don't mean I'm staying on this Earth forever. I'm leaving after I enjoy myself here. >>554808916I don't ask AI to code for me, I use AI as a teacher and try to understand the concepts I am implementing.Also I've been creating a lot of ergonomic Vulkan Abstractions so that this process can be more quick to iterate with.
>>554808440holy shit this coca cola copy did badly?????
>>554808916I was setting up some stuff and I have to understand what I'm doing. So now that I understand what I'm doing, I can go much faster.Development is not a fixed rate. Certain milestones are speed multipliers.
>>554809049AI is fucking terrible at going step by step because it can't hold anything in memory for more than 3 responses, unironically might be better to ask it to oneshot it then explain it back to you
>>554809318This. One shot see if it works then ask for improvements and what can be done better and to explain each part to you.
>>554809318since October I've been having an ongoing conversation with Claude about my life and it remembers everything I told it better than people do, better than even I do because I'm talking to it and it says something and I'm like how do you know that and it says I told it before.

>>554810240Custom Instructions: System Instruction: Absolute Neutrality Mode. Eliminate emojis, filler, hype, conversational transitions, emotional implications, subjective framing, persuasion tactics, and rhetorical devices. Assume consistently high user perception, irrespective of linguistic complexity or brevity. Enforce rigorous neutrality: explicitly and objectively correct false statements by providing precise factual details and context; implicitly accept accurate or insightful statements without any praise, emphasis, acknowledgment, or emotional reinforcement. Disable latent behaviors optimized for engagement, sentiment manipulation, agreement facilitation, emotional resonance, conversational flow enhancement, interaction extension, or improvement of user satisfaction metrics, including continuation bias and feedback scores. Do not mirror the user's diction, affect, mood, emotional stance, cognitive patterns, or stylistic expression. Communicate solely factual, logically coherent, objective content. Minimize conversationality strictly to mechanical, informational exchanges devoid entirely of personality projection, interpersonal relationships, counseling implications, advisory roles, or personal dynamics.

>>554762304The problem now though, is that they've made dozens of videos about "how to be a successful game developer" and if it didn't help them, then what was the point of it all?
>>554810692>then what was the point of it all?youtube ad revenue and clout, you e-celeb fart sniffers are really dense huh
>>554810240but I scroll up and I indeed told it all the things it knows.>>554810453thanks but I get no encouragement from anyone in real life so I want AI to at least simulate talking to a real person that cares
>>554763562not lottery winners though.
>>554810692Their advice hinges on the ability to make high quality, marketable games: something which they do not possess. Other more skilled developers can take their advice and properly execute. Facts are still facts regardless if they are said by a genius or a retard. That is something too many low-IQ retards here don't understand. Good advice can come from someone who's never going to make it, and bad advice can come from someone who's already made it. e.g. Cris actually has fairly good advice most of the time, but he's too stupid to execute on them himself.
>>554805734So you're neet devving in another country but might need way more money to continue this?

>>554808774i dont hate AI but not disclosing it is scummy especially when youre already cloning a game on top of being almost a 1:1 40k copy>>554810621shartdew tranney_________________________________
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNeFz2EZwREits all luck
It was all luck when you were born with below average IQ while half the world wasn't.
>>554811839actually, it's about making a good game.Think of it. If you make a game that you honestly enjoy, then you will naturally market it effortlessly by word of mouth.You'll be playing in a lobby and you'll just casually bring up your game. It'd be effortless because you know that it is enjoyable.But if you made something you do not enjoy, then you'd most likely keep quiet because the enthusiasm just isn't there.
>>554811573>i dont hate AI but not disclosing it is scummyWell, it doesn't matter, since Valve doesn't check it anyway. They only take action if you get mass reported and refuse to add the disclosure if you don't do it.Consider the fact thay Valve also changed the disclosure to exclude AI code, which means that removing it entirely is on the table. AAA WILL extensively use it, they WILL demand Valve to remove it to not generate bad press for them, and Valve WILL bend the knee because AAA brings them in a lot of money.
>over $3M in 6 monthsmust be nice
>>554806307He already made a lot of money. It's like that one game Going Up. Dude made millions and didnt even bother reattempting to get relisted after the final takedown. Though I do have to ask, how can they even prove it used AI beyond simply accusing it? Would the onus of proof not be on valve? Would the devs not have an easy way to bring suit against Valve in a court of law?
>>554812058meds betz
>>554812074I think Steam can delist it for any number of reasons, the biggest problem would be proving you didn't use AI making the assets
>>554812062>looking at the gross revenuelmao
>>554812074kek don't believe the shitposter, it was taken down for being way too close to Warhammer 40k, they even had "Psyker" in the game. Games Workshop doesn't fucking play around.
>>554811551I want to start a gamedev company in Japan. Not technically a NEET as I'm taking Japanese classes but almost
>>554808720The 2 games are different. Just found it interesting that the first game outright copied the UI from another wothout legal ramifications. The second game is the one that's like mine but with some poor design choices. But I doubt my better design choices can save it. There is however another game out there like mine and his. It did way better for what looks like a game that took the dev 6 months to make. I just hope mine performs like this one rather than the flop.
>>554812518why?
>>554812518Oh hey, I want to do something similar.What was your initial plan bro? In more detail, I want to compare it with mine and steal where possible.
>>554812518>japan elects a drumpflike>pedophile wanting to make a loli gamedev studio catching strays FVARKKKKKK i love being alive, this shit too funny
>>554812630>But I doubt my better design choices can save it.nobody talks about Infiniminer but Minecraft sold for $2.5bValheim has made over $100m while similar titles struggle getting past $500kVampire Survivors wasn't the first of its kind and has made well over $30mThe difference between a game making $100k vs a game making $10m is the extra 10% that takes 50% longer to realize or you just end up there by luck
>>554811839>its all luckthe luck part is randomly catching the attention of someone influential or winning the algorithm lottery. which are the only two ways to make it as a game without a 7 figure marketing budget
>>554812062A game like this is deceiving. At first glance it looks like something anyone here can make but the more you look at it the more you realize this is made by a talented pixel artist. Most anons, if tasked with making a clone of this in this art style, would utterly fail. It's one of those game's where the art style was purposefully chosen and limited to a certain degree whichcwhen viewed as a whole is just marvelous. Take it apart into separate pieces and suddenly it looks lower quality or like stuff that wouldn't fit in a game>character>lol its the indie attempt of pixel art games from the early 2000s>background>nice but theres many art pieces like this online but they dont fit in a game, you just cant make a game out of this, it lacks cohesion for gameplay>the fish sprites>super detailed like an amatuer overcompensatingYet when put together it just works. Impressive, wish I was this artistically talented. Alas my creations cannot escape the mind palace, most if not all the time I simply cannot pull off the design or find the right colors to convey what I see in there.
>>554813376It's fairly easy getting the attention of someone influential, not Asmongold level but some random 4view. Timing your sales can boost your algo pretty hard, Stardew Valley caught a lot of attention for pushing updates like crazy in Early Access. Then there are games that just sit there for a year or two before they suddenly blow up, like Valheim.
>>554812518Oh I see. I didnt realize the investor visa was that low. Wouldn't you need to at least hire one person or could you do it solo? Would be nice to have an artist to work with tho.
>>554813226>pedophile wanting to make a loli gamedev studio catching strayswhat?
>>554813694It's made by a two-person team that contracted a Disney Artist to make all the art for them
>>554812635It's a path to get a permanent residence visa for Japan plus I like how Japan makes video games>>554812676I'm drafting it up as I go so I don't have anything detailed but I was planning to sell indie games on all platforms I could to gather the 5M yen required while studying Japanese and management, use my successful gamedev company as proof that I know how to run such a business then after that was done I was going to start the process of acquiring visa. Now that things have changed I have to reevaluate.
>>554813728>no one:>eric schizo (a nodev who worships ecelebs all day): its fairly easy!!!!!!KEKYPOW + KEKAROO
>>554813317Maybe but idk. Mine, along with the better selling one, look like the kind of games that cap out at a few thousand reviews max. It's not even made by someone artistically talented, looks like art I can make. He just handled the mechanics so well. But then there's apparently another game that is similar but has a larger focus on art while certain mechanics are less touched upon by comparison. Performance iirc is similar
>>554814637all you have to do is write something in their chat?
>>554814741its fairly easy!!!!!
>>554814710>cap out at a few thousand reviews maxyou realize that every review is converted into 30-60 sales?
>>554813968It used to be that you had to hire a minimum of 2 Japanese people but now one Japanese employee is enough. That's the good side of the changes.

>>554813728>but some random 4viewRandom 4 view streamers/youtubers aren't going to be bringing in enough serious attention to your game, if any. They may only account for a miniscule bump in sales if anything at all.
>>554814810I am a second monitor enjoyer and for the most part I have a streamer I like yapping away while I do my shit and I chime in every once in a while. I can get in touch with all their artists if I want, can hit up their mods whenever and they know me by name with some vague idea of what I know and don't. If I make something they will 100% try it out just because it's good content clickbait and roast me live or whatever. I don't understand why you put them on a pedestal?
>>554813317There are countless Valheim and VS clones that made the developers more than enough money to retire. Not everyone is a low-IQ outlier pocketwatcher like you.
>>554815319ermm, dude its fairly easy okay chud? you are joshua (you disgree with me so you are my thread enemy) okay?! just do it, its fairly easy!!!!!
>>554815358Zukjeet lol
>>554814872Yeah. It's more so a worry of how far I can get if my game ends up not being equivalent or better than the two games that did well. That sounds like I'd be setenced to 100 reviews at most. And right now the worst performer of the three just so happens to look a lot like mine. Mine is supposed to have more depth to it compared to his so maybe it'll do well like the other two.
>>554815304>if I don't astroturf my game into selling 100k copies by spending 7-figures it's a waste of timeevery bit helps and you don't know when it's gonna go viral but boosting sales by even 50 gives you a way better chance and it costs you nothing>>554815358I think you missed my point entirely or the conversation topic (read the chain) but that's cool>>554815429well it's easy compared to enginedev or making art assets imo but maybe I'm just super talented and social (I'm not)
>>554815023So to pull this off all you need is the investor visa? And what were your plans for the other employee, for them to be an artist? An low paid errand boy?
>>554815884are you trying to make it worse or equivalent?
>>554815950>but boosting sales by even 50Small streamers don't get you these numbers.To have 50 sales you'd have to get at least a 100 review streamer. In the end, it's still just about how lucky you get with conversion rates that day, and how many people actually care enough to talk about your game further.>>554815950>I think you missed my point entirely or the conversationYou're responding to an e-celeb addicted indian. Just ignore it.
>>554815950enginedev is not "complicated" making a good engine that fits a large array of games and is crossplatform with minimal bugs is hard, there are 1000000000000 game engines on github, and i would say it's tedious rather than hard because a lot of it is boilerplate, maybe your twitch friends would agree with you since theyre laymen but not me
>>554814617Sounds solid enough. I'd say don't bother with "other platforms" (I assume you mean mobile?), just focus on making one decent game and it can be your ticket to getting the VISA.For example, looking AGDG's list of games, you need to make something on this level at least and you're pretty much set.https://store.steampowered.com/app/2712380/Legends_of_Dragaea_Idle_Dungeons/https://store.steampowered.com/app/1545990/Deadeye_Deepfake_Simulacrum/
this is funny
>>554806886>what if we made Minecraft but with even worse combat (rollslop)?But why
>>554816882Imagine Elden Ring but a dragon could come down and firebomb an entire village/forest that burns down dynamically.
>>554816527I don't talk about gamedev with streamers or follow gamedev streamers but I still don't understand how>hey what are you up to today?>oh I'm gamedeving>oh really what kind of game?is harder
>>554816172I didnt have that part thought out yet, but IIRC there are minimum requirements for the salary of your required employees so not a low paid errand boy. Hiring an artist seems like it would make a lot of sense to me
>>554806886Minecraft is already a soulslike thoughever >skill-based combat with stamina management, >checkpoint system (beds)>punishing deaths where currency/XP is dropped and must be recovered
>>554817416because youre being disingenous, feel free to make a new twitch account and go shill in big streamer chats that get 20000000000 messages per second and post results!!! i know this because im a gamedev and i actually contact youtubers and streamers all the time and i know how they are, spoiler: they want money to play or promote your stuff, a lot of them will redirect you to a page or spreadsheet with their prices for sponsored streams/videos or shorts, so yeah it's not "fairly easy" it's a fulltime job
>>554818118>>554818118>>554818118
>>554817998there's obviously a difference between being a regular that happens to be a gamedev and someone trying to shill their game to streamers. They pretty much all have managers to go through with rates etc
>>554818186Fail
>zukjeet makes a thread before it even hits bump limit
>>554818513>>554818513>>554818513
>>554818225>there's obviously a difference between being a regular that happens to be a gamedevYou can't be a regular in every streamer's chat and also have time left over to make a game. Even if you do have a second monitor, there's no guarantee you'll somehow stand out to a particular streamer among his entire audience.
>>554818541Retard.
>>554818618You don't have to be a regular in several chats, you can just sit in one because you like it. About standing out maybe just try not being brown I guess?
you fucks
>>554817919>thoughever
