PROGRESS ANCHOR
>>557504146kys
progress anchor for non pedophile devs :)
im back at it. got my retro sky shader working in godot yesterday.im not sure it bands the way i want but it still looks right enough.next up is to figure out how to texture my terrain as quads via tilemap.
anyone here have experience with FTEQW ?I'm trying to make my first multiplayer game and I've heard it's a great engine to do it on and it's lightweight so it will run on my 2016 PC

Just use unity like a normal person

>>557487689I would love to work with people.I really would. But I don’t have anyone. So I’m solo out of necessity
My problems have been solved. As many of you may know, I am making a driving game that requires you to brake before driving into a curve.I was under the impression that in order to be a popular driving game, that the game should not require braking before driving into a curve. However, after studying games last night I realized that games such as Grand Turismo and Forza are both popular and they require to brake before driving into a curve.
>>557512478My mom is my artist and my brother is my programmer.I'm the soul of the project though.
>>557512601Anyone USEFUL
I'm able to draw and paint, I'm able to 3d sculpt in blender and zbrush with ease, I recently finished both a maya and blender animation course, I can vibecode myself into a functioning game, and my brother is a programmer who helps me out whenever I want, so I manage to make a an outwardly aesthetic product.But for the simple reason that I'm not creative at all, and can't come up with any actually good original ideas for games I will always simply follow trends and will never land a big hit.I want to kms, how do you even become an "ideas guy"?
>>557512825Idk, wish I had your skillset
>>557512825ask grok
I hate the idea of having to ask Redditors. I haven’t yet, but it seems more attractive by the day
>>557512825You need to hire a pro ideas guy like myself. I do 50 50 revshares if your interested.
>>557512825Live life. do you spend most of your time in-front of a computer? hardly inspiring
I wonder if anons here ever visited something called a physical library IRL or is everyone here a zoomerino?>How do I learn X>I can't do YI self taught me everything I know with some ancient forgotten technology called a PDF.
>>557513646Honestly it depends
Right now I'm working on some "behavior" code. Should make things a lot more interesting.Post dev musichttps://youtu.be/6LY_eqQghnQ?si=xvkca7BEPDJsZzkMhttps://youtu.be/q96o9AvJO0M?si=uPmHBly9KvhsNs9uhttps://youtu.be/2EkNo-iTf24?si=8QkTHWybFCknoB_qhttps://youtu.be/q8qZPYv100M?si=MEAvPkcjxJboxSx2https://youtu.be/1CfgOBxiP2w?si=lJ3z4umTM_vVUZbR>>557513646Plenty of times. In high school I would eat lunch and go straight to the library and in college I would go there frequently. A few months back my best friend from Houston came to visit and we spent a couple of hours looking at different books.
>>557513646I used to visit a physical library to use the computer they had there, does that count?
>>557513646>>557514025https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GOR5gvQwDI
>>557513646and with all that knowledge(and it's a lot), what have you got to show for it? better just be clueless and make kino accidently
Not a dev, I just have a burning question I wanted to askHow do you guys come up with ideas for games? I sometimes play gamejam games, and they give a theme and stuff to help narrow your scope, but I still think there's so much you can choose to do. I think if I ever tried to make a game i'd be indecisive, how do you deal with that?
Vomit
Inspo and during showers and walks random ideas then I write them down as a maybe good idea for future games and when I don't have ideas at the moment I go through those
>>557512825God I wish I could have your problems.I'm going to die before I make even 10 of my ideas reality.
>>557513638>do you spend most of your time in-front of a computer? hardly inspiringI do live my life infront of a pc, you aren't wrong, but I don't really have much of an alternative until I find some sort of success, even if small, with this.
>>557514558start out by cloning games, as your game making skillset grows, you get more ideas, and they get more creative as you develop more games.
>>557504146finished the coding section, now I have to add the new dialogue
>>557514110>>557514841>I bet this is the same person making these single posts>I shall call that samefagging even though that's not what samefagging is and never was>I use 4chan for years without bothering to learn what any of the terminology here means>I shall call everyone else ESL and jeets because I'm a retarded ape who doesn't know what words meanPosting simply to make noise.

You'll never accept this though. And you'll neverevermake a game.

>>557515175I was watching caterpillars over the course of a week on a single bush eat the entire bush, last man standing as some didn't get to grow big enough to turn into chrysalises. from 30, only 5 will become butterflies. I think preying mantis took out the small ones. anyway, I have a game idea from that
>>557504146.
>>557514558For the v3jam I just thought about mechanics using the requirements and mixed them together with a genre. It took me 1 day to get the idea, tho.Just create a mental game and decide stuff, narrowing down the game idea. You first start with a vague idea like x but with y, game a + game b, art style x, or anything at all, and keep solving problems like how could the gameplay be, whats the plot, etc.
>>557504146I managed to do my camera yesterday, and I’m currently starting on the enemies.I just need to implement knockback and tighten up their movement for them to be functional
>>557504146,
>>557513302No matter where you go, there are legions of people who have no business answering questions but they want the dopamine from throwing any answer out there. Ever since AI has been integrated into my search engine of choice, it's rare that I won't find the answer to something because it filters answers across the entire internet for what is likely correct.
>>557514558I make a cute girl then build the game around her
>>557515797Yeesh
>>557515797this is true
>>557515467>I was watching caterpillars over the course of a week on a single bush eat the entire bush, last man standing as some didn't get to grow big enough to turn into chrysalises. from 30, only 5 will become butterflies.And butterfly boomers will just say the little caterpillars didn't work hard enough.
>>557515797reminds me of an old adage said on here like 15 years ago, wasn't this always said of redditors? my mind is spaghetti
>>557515293zukjeet aka eric schizo's daily meltiethis freak posts here 24/7, can you believe that? sheesh
I need a good reference for joint topology
>>557516116I'm one of multiple anons who post Zukowski but your brain can't comprehend that he's actually a popular figure in gamedev. You've been obsessed, literally mindbroken about it for 9 months now.I don't post here 24/7 in fact I was banned recently because you spammed reports on everyone with your VPNs to get them banned / deleted and unlike you I actually take my bans like a big boy.You willNEVERmake a game and you will NEVERcontrol this community.

>>557516312>you spammed reports on everyone with your VPNs to get them banned / deletedAlso it's not working anymore now that the janny realized what he's been doing so he was having a meltie yesterday about the "progress anchor" pedo post not being deleted at his command lol
This place is useless
And lineart done
>>557516536that was me posting "still up btw" and i didn't even report it, just let it be known, fucking pedo
>>557516678So you just cried about it 8 times without even reporting it. You will never make a game.
>>557516536>joshua is the only one who hates pedosCome on zukjeet.

>>557516952Don't care. Nobody does.>>557516837There is no "zukjeet" when you call 5 different people zukjeet constantly it loses all meaning. You're losers and the little timeout I got helped me realize how I'm bored with you low effort posting monkeys.BYEEEE enjoy ook ook and eek eeking at eachother for another year.

Ugh

>>557516612I like the ass dents on the bench. nice touch.
>xhe is making uncslop for 40 years olds who dont even play games anymoreexplain xourself?
>>557517657uncs are the only ones able to afford pc gaming setups and are easily nostalgia-baited into collecting (not playing) lots of boomerslop
>>557517070>Why so many roguelikes?>look inside>roguelitesThis is making it difficult to find resources on traditional roguelikes.The differences between the modern definitions of "roguelike" and "roguelite" are so miniscule that I have no clue why they won't just adopt roguelite as the default term.
make more boomerslooper games

>>557518289thats excellent advice, meta progression is important to get past the 2h refund limit and give goycattle some dopamine
>>557517657the fundamentals of fun don't change.besides, I'm targeting underserved niches that have similar tastes to mine. I don't care about gamers who play VS or Garry's Mod or Undertale.

>>557518624I'm grandunc.
I'm watching anime and eating. I'll have some progress soon.
>>557517657how come unc games force me to pay attention to multiple things at once? I want to have fun not get stressed out and overstimulated. This is why the best games use only one or two buttons. No complexity, no padding, just gameplay.
>>557519198TRVKAROONY
>>557518451the distinction between roguelike and roguelite is -lite has meta prog and -like do not. yes the children are wrong.
>>557517126Stocks simulator, except it's wizards in their towers, the "coins/stocks" are magic gems, gold, stone and so on. The game has a sort of simplified "Slay the Spire" gameplay loop in parallel, you can use the "stocks" to buy busted cards to make your run easier, or just play the casino of stocks and get as rich as you can. If you were smart you could make the stocks part multiplayer and affected by other players, kinda like 4chan's april's fools event if you remember. There's more implementation details in my file but that's the gist of it.
>>557519198it's not that hard. remember uncs were 7 years old when they were playing these "complex" games
>>557519608i was playing populace the beginning at that age
whats the age range for uncs

>>557520302hardcore porn with a good story would probably sell better, but who wants to direct that with your name attached? and hollywood films are not hardcore porn even if they have a full on real sex scene like caligula
