Why does saying that maybe Valve is not as good as people say it is cause this thread to have an enormous meltdown? What's with all the billionaire worship in here?
>you will never witness sexy cosplays of your characters
I feel sick
>>557619491Eric schizo/zukjeet has to defend the honor of his favorite e-celeb, it's the same type of mental illness as k-pop fans or politician fans.
>>557619491>TL: Gaben is a literal demon and the only reason why I'm not successful, I wish other good guys like Tim Sweeney would give me a facial instead (G.Newell, 2021 yacht adventures)>Why is anyone disagreeing with me what the fuck?>G. Newell, 2021 yacht adventures pic rel
>>557619287>3 people with extremely similar but different profile pictureswhat does it mean?
>>557619553Ahhhh
valve is guilty of lowering the value of videogames. why would you buy an unknown indie game when gta 5 is like 10 dollars?
>>557619774It means gamers fucking LOVE clippy.
>>557619739No one brings up Timmy but you, zukjeet. You're a veddit nodevs so you have to pick and side and autistically melt when people disagree.If Timmy wants to take 30% before taxes then fuck him too.
sending good vibes to all bocchidevs
fun fact: its only gonna get worse
>>557619901Tim Sweeney is the one funding the Valve lawsuit, he's been mad ever since the Fortnite class action lawsuit preventing him from selling lootboxes because his lootboxes actually gave in-game power.
>>557619553Actually....
>still no handwritten apology from /agdg/
anyone know where to find resources for animating?im animating a top down rpg and Im struggling with the attack animations when the character is facing upwards..
>>557621269https://www.spriters-resource.com/
>>557621269how top down?
I now have enough features to recreate some levels.
>>557619553So building off of this, let's hypothetically say that I have access to a cosplayer. How do I use them in promotional material and not have the players feel like they got a bait and switch when it turns out it's just a 3D game
>>557622440Original level.
>>557602725Oh a marketing campaign first, that makes sense. Kinda pointless to shadow drop it and hope that's good enough to judge whether it's viable lel. Good luck anon!>Is this likely though? How much did that job or a temp job pay if you'd have a year or two of living expenses saved up from them?Considering how long I've been unemployed and live at home, 150k is within reason albeit it's not 1 or 2 years worth of money, it is 5 years worth. I'm not the type that goes out so most of my money gets saved.>>557606593Lol I can see Viewtiful Joe and Bayonetta. Wonder what his mom thought of him at the time.>oh no my son is dressing up like a weirdo I will never have grand children
I feel so crushed right now
>>557620054Thanks sis!
I'm gonna do it.The desperate measure.I'm gonna discount my game at 80%.The gamercunts won.I lost.
NGMIggers are willing to do anything but make a good game that people want to play.
I need to get over it
>>557622440>>557622708
>>557623664Zukjeet
just made an asset packer into .pck using python for my engine.:D
>>557624067Now nobody will ever find out that all the models are actually stealered and simply retextured.
cris is an enigmahe seems to do things that make sensethen he completely does a 180
You take the red pill; $1m is wired into your bank account and you never have to worry about making a game again. You take the blue pill; you can continue being a gamedev and believe you will make it or not. The choice is yours.
>>557624067i would like to invest in ca3 'gine
>>557619553I wonder.....if he asked her out on a date right then and there, do you think she would accept? I get the feeling this is one of those scenario's where the cosplaying woman would say yes. She liked his game so much she was willing to cosplay as one of his characters and meet him.
>>557624306I want to be equal to pixel and ZUN and both made their games without a commercial engine.also, I'm not really happy with any engine I use, there's always something that bothers me with rpg maker, fighter maker, godot, gdevelop, etc.besides, I spend like 6-7 months last year making a godot framework, so I got a bit of practice doing that.Now I want to make something that really makes me happy because I will be deving how I want everything to be, rather than figuring out how an engine works.
>>557624067I still don't understand how you have such a wide breadth of knowledge in gamedev and do things like this like its nothing. I'd be bumbling about with no clue on how to do this with heavy research.>>557624358Red pill. Screw it, I don't care enough anymore. Now if there was a pill that made my art skills perma top tier......then I'd probably take that instead.
>>557624867that's because I'm not a begginer programmer.
>TFW you wake up to another Coom Shit Angel circlejerk thread being deletedAhh…MODS == GODS.
>>557625237QRD? i dont get it
choose your character.
>>557624716>I want to be equal to pixel and ZUNThat was out of reach for you the moment you were born in Columbia instead of Japan.
>>5576261913
Haha what if I port my game to typescript and refactor the engine instead of finishing the design or making art and content ahahahaahaha being a gamedev is so fun lads hahaha
>>557622440Doing it with Bokube would probably be too difficult for you, you'd probably quit halfway through the gameplay mechanics with a broken, buggy demo.
>>557626364JUAjust use AI
>>557626674Next time be less obvious
>>557619287hey, anyone got a good resource for RPG maker MZ plugins? a lot of people scam with these things, there was a $60 character creator on itch.io with 6 hairstyles,
>>557626872Except it's true. You probably couldn't even implement dash correctly, including showing exactly where the cubed bunny ends up.The clones of Bokube tended to end up buggy, limited or unfinished. Bokube's gameplay mechanics is literally filtering approximately 95%+ of /agdg/. They would have filtered BokuDev too, if he hadn't used a template to start from, experimented in all kinds of different ways, and hired a programmer to help him out. And even then he messed up.If Betz wanted to do an interesting jam, he'd do a Bokube mechanics jam, challenging everyone to make the most faithful clone of the game mechanics of Bokube. /agdg/ could try, but would generally just fail.
>>557626674>a broken, buggy demo.That would be a pretty faithful reproduction, then.
>>557627293check kemono and the rpgmaker general probably has some links idk if its still alive
>>557625965Coom Shit Angel is a """game""" being developed by a 50-year-old fossil living in Brazil that, despite being a pixel art game, is taking almost a decade to make. The developer likes to hijack Kirby threads and turning them into off-topic "loli" threads by posting his shit OC being fondled by Kirby and making the discussion devolve into people shitting on his game. Mods, based as they are, usually delete these threads to ensure the creeps have no outlet to talk about their sick fetish.Up next: The Downfall of ACK-rolyte
>>557627582Except anything most of /agdg/ makes would probably be even more buggy and broken, /agdg/ probably can't even reach BokuDev's level.
>>557627362>If Betz wanted to do an interesting jam, he'd do a Bokube mechanics jam,I was under the impression that it was a one and done considering the shit they got for doing the jam at all. Are they doing another?
>>557629518No idea, just a hypothetical.
>steamies spam a game's reviews with by definition unrelated spam>gabencunt be like: "nah who gives a shit, i get my 30% anyway"steamie devs are so cucked lel
>>557629518>considering the shit they got for doing the jam at allFrom who, that one guy who shitposted in every thread?
>>557619774https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_Dtmpe9qaQ
>>557629821IIRC they said they're going to do another one potentially in the fall.
when's the next world famous interactive entertainment software fruit preserve?
I need some real mental help. I have this burning desire for popularity and recognition, and the idea that I won’t ever get it, which is actually rather likely regardless of what I make, has driven me into a depression that’s actually outright affecting my physical health.I need help getting out of this
Haven't feel motivated this way since I was making games in 2016 when I was making a crappy demo with athena.Making my own crappy engine feels amazing, chuds.It's like if I'm gonna make shoes that fit perfectly my feet shape.
>>557632076get evaluated by a mental health professional, could be borderline
>>557632230Honestly I wish there was something I could medicate away, but it feels so deeply tied to my mind that I don’t know how to get rid of it.
new unlockable character for kludge, WIP. theres going to be 5 or 6 playable characters with different movement systems, so far im working on>biped >boston dynamics dogplanning a few others.
>>557632380I was only joking, you can only medicate the symptoms anyhow. Even still, get evaluated by a mental health professional
>>557632695Aw
>>557632695perfect million dollar friendslop potential right here
>it works
>>557630746See >>557630334
>>557632112Cris your feelings have more to do with the medication you are or are not taking at any given time. Your feelings have nothing to do with whether the thing you're working on is a good idea (it never is)
playing around with shaders
>>557632715I know. I just have so much I’ve worked on, and this idea that nobody will ever notice makes me feel physically sick. Which is a problem
>>557632912the biped will have a metal pipe as a weapon
>>557633201Nice
how do i know if my game is a roguelite or an incremental game
https://www.instagram.com/diedevdiegram/reel/DS-z-XAktSK/?hl=enwasteland bites popping off on reels
>>557633685here's the only relevant question. do you actually play or do you only click buttons?
>get a youtube notification on the trailer for the game i havent finished yet i posted in 2020>2020 was 6 years agoHoly crap....
>>557633160
>>557633685If it's a game that runs, someone will call it a roguelite
>sell a game on steam for $1>after gabencunt took his pay + self employment taxes i get $0.15is this fair?
>>557537090Isn't this your SECOND flop? Surely by now you understand that social media wishlists don't mean shit (they're not even your actual target demo).
>>557634809NTA but wishlist can only be a positive sign. A lack of wishlists is a death sentence for a game, so wishlists tell him he's on the right track at least.
I need
the need for sneed
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OX6d6b623Eki laughed at this craKKKa a few months ago but looks like he's GMI actually, i shouldve picked up amateur app development instead....
>>557634809>Isn't this your SECOND flop?most people don't make it on their first attempt, stop being so pessimistic
>>557634513You'll never guess it but baking a loaf of bread costs about 5 cents in combined energy costs/ingredients/maintenance for an industrial sized bakery and receive a profit of about 45 cents out of the $4.50 price tag after logistics partners and stores have taken their cut. And if the bread is shit they send it back and you have to sell more back to them at a discount.
>>557634907>>557635082I'm not shitting on him but surely he understands the actual value of wishlists since he already released a game before, don't hugbox.
>>557630746Fall time. Need to figure out when the best time is. I think twice a year on these might be good, that way you can do either or. Wonder if I can reuse the farm theme for fall...
>>557635193wishlists mean he's on the right track. it's a positive signal. what do you think would be a better indicator at this point in development?
>>557633784>do you actually play or do you only click buttons?I dont know. Are QTEs "play" or "button clicking"?>>557634215There are "runs".I feel that there is not enough skill involved to call it roguelite nor upgrades enough to call it incremental. Is this one of those jack of all trades master of none moments?Will my game flop just by the concept alone? I was fine with the idea but I saw that mouse game video where he couldnt say the game is horror nor roguelite even tho the game has a bit of both. Am I overthinking? Does God hate me? Should I go flip burgers instead?
>>557635501There's not a concept in the world that will survive the first playable version
>>557635361You can't know for sure before releasing a decent demo, post demo you can look at steam forums, if big indie youtubers pick it up, if niche youtubers pick it up, if niche forums/reddit are talking about it, if the discord is blowing up, etc, etc, wishlists are literally useless games like path of achra released on low wishlists count iirc.98% of social media wishlists are pity wishlists.
>>557635501is your run <10 seconds or is your run 30 minutes
>>557635709Why doesn't my game get 20k pity wishlists? It got 0.2k in a year.
My game is getting comfier
Guys, can I just say it? I love this fat mothafucka!
twitter down 4chan is healing
>>557635986You need more clickbait, colorful gameplay, dangling keys, etc
>>557635986>Why doesn't my game get 20k pity wishlists?Because you failed to make an appealing or fun game. Assuming you already have a demo on your page, your game is GUARENTEED to flop 100% and no amount of cope will change that. Don't be like Bokudev and cling onto that flop. Move on to your next project already.
>>557635747It depends on your power, the stronger you get the longer will be the runs. I'm looking for about 20 minutes in your last run.
>>557636547CUFF + BUST(this kills the zukjeet posting xir guru's misleading information)
>>557629878My gf is quoted in this article, very cool.Steam, Gabe, we’re coming for you!
>>557636547moved on from that game 2 weeks after I made the Steam page. I'm just sorry I didn't make it sooner so I could give up on it sooner. actually I'm sorry I didn't just genAI the screenshots first before even starting the game but the technology wasn't there yet.
>>557636678>Gross revenue (base game): $276.6k ($184.1k - $369.1k)>Gold: $250K – $999K
I wish I could be the next Toby Fox
>>557636931>muh imaginary numbersif you had ever released a game you'd know that those guesstimated numbers are extremely inaccurate, it says my game is in the 50k bracket when it made well below half of that, you lost and CUFFBUSTed
>>557637325nta but gamalytic was spot on for my game's earnings
>>557637591how many steam sales and bundles your game went through? i can see it being accurate in the first weeks but not in the long run
>>557637325>muh gaem shitted and flopped and therefore the data is wrong> Silver: $10,001 – $249KYou can get as high as 120 wishlists/week or 6k wishlists/year and still be at risk of making as little as $10k. Also remember that these are "passive wishlist velocity" numbers i.e. how many wishlists the Steam algorithm ALONE gives you without any active external promotion.
>>557634513Why are you paying taxes? The president doesn’t even pay those.
>>557637762>schizo babble because his youtuber is wrongdont care, youre a nodev stop giving advice you have no idea what youre talking about before you CUFFBUST (200k wishlists)
>>557635141When valve starts operating a national fleet of semi trucks to deliver my physical game to a chain of retail stores, then maybe I’d accept 30%
as introductory level tutorial is it a good idea to give players like super high stats temporary then take them away at the end to give them a glimpse of what is possible?
>>557637978Low-IQs focus on outliers.High-IQs focus on distributions.
so i have to say, it's looking better, but needs some more refinement. nowhere near what i wanted though. i don't know how to feel about it. if i really don't like it i can get a refund when it's all said and done, but still.
>>557638294my point exactly, valve only promotes 400 games a year if your game upsets the algorithm on day 1 you are essentially fucked, retard low IQ nodev
>>557638259Only if you’re making a metroidvaniaYou could make it work if you played as the villain in that segment without realizing it yet
agdg npcs keep telling me that I should use godot or rpg maker, instead of making my own engine because le commercial engine took hundreds of developers years.And It took me like 2 days of code to write my own basic 2D engine.
>>557638259This is called an "abilitease", but you shouldn't do it with just stats. You do it with mechanics and abilities.
>>557638480>And It took me like 2 days of code to write my own basic 2D engine.cris FVARKING WON
>>557638491i just think it might do the opposite and demotivate them because a loss is psychologically more difficult altough they might not even realize it at first
angry
>>557638626SotN and Metriod Prime opened with an abilitease segment, and those did alright.
>>557638416Your game upset the algorithm by being a bad game that no one wants to play.

>>557638908but enough about 200k wishlists guru approved CUFFBUST
>>557639058Disingenuous. I've talked before about how Gavin and Zukowski offer contradictory advice. They're not optimizing for the same thing.>I have seen games with weekly wishlist rates at Bucket #4 levels. But at launch, the game had major bugs, or their marketing mis-identified the genre and gameplay, or the game was too difficult, or it looked good in screenshots and trailers but it played janky. The fans revolted (or were apathetic) once they were able to play the game. So, don’t quit your day job if your weekly wishlist rate looks like it might be in Bucket #4. Wait until you launch first.
>>557639058Bokube will be the opposite. Wishlisted by 2000 said to fail because of lack of people but explodes with success through word of mouth and a cult of people that love it.
>>557639409>through word of mouth and a cult of people that love itNothing happens unless you are the one making /v/ threads. Expect to make every single video that others should have made for you.

Small proggy.Made some tweaks to the enemy behaviors. Now the skeletons with shields are able to block arrows and all enemies drop items upon death.I also made some small tweaks to the player's model.
>>557639409It's one of those forever in development games like Cube World, Kenshi, Hytale or Mewgenics that can push past any algo. People are begging Hytale devs to put it on Steam EA right now

A Fast Game shop where they go to a drive thru and say "Yeah, I'll have a uhh... Rogue-lite game, go easy on the Deckbuilding, and uhh.. a classic shoot em up with crafting mechanics."
The cook in the back flips the game up into the air, it spins. He then throws it in the Rogue-lite frier then packs it up into a bite sized executable. The customer eats the game in the parking lot. Its a quick way to enjoy games after work.

>>557647783I remember finding out about that game in middle school back when its existence briefly went semi-viral, and I'm an M.D. now. Did anything happen to it? I always sort of assumed it's just been in vaporware hell because the concept is eye-catching and technically impressive but there's not much to do with it as far as human-intuitive puzzle-solving is concerned.

>>557637941You have to. You won't get the money in cash from Valve and any bigger transfer will trigger ATM safeties. I had that happen before.

>be me>making game>sitting there thinking eating and drinking >chips, pretzel thingies, baja blast>thought hits about the gameplay loop>can expand it this way>woah nelly that increases the fun but at the cost of it no longer being a casual relaxing game>another thought hits>an even more expansive version of the original game but in a different direction compared to the lastThe latter is obviously not happening, that's at least an extra 3 years to the dev cycle. The former is within reason, maybe 1 extra year of development. This feels nice. Has me questioning whether I should pivot. Game goes from a potential ~500 review game to maybe ~2000 and easy $5 price hike if the former is priced at $9.99.
>>557659548ummm you woke up but thats the reality now
>>557638969>redteamed somebody to let off a little cheeky dev stress and now they're suibaitingWhat does this mean. Redteamed? Suibaiting?
Man this thread has degraded crazy bad, this whole site is shit now. Has every single non retard been scared off to discords?
>>557659629No, it still makes sense, and there is still a bunch of spaghetti code I have to clean up.
>>557659728>NOOOO SOMEBODY POSTED OPINIONS I DISAGREE WITH SHUT THIS WHOLE WEBSITE DOWN EVERYONE TO THE DISCORDS NOW GO GO GO At least these are real posts and discussions instead of the random chimp noises you chat kiddos love filling the thread with at odd hours.
First we CUFF then we BUST.
>>557659728No, because even the Discords were getting revealed. Just look at what happened to ACK-rolyte.
>about to lose boccherbux because of the 5 USD I receive each month from ko-fi donations
>>557660197>boccherbux
>>557659728>Has every single non retard been scared off to discords?yes.
>lets see what v is up to>its fygoon talking to himself againtale as old as time
>>557660116Bro it's the exact opposite, this thread is just retards babbling back and forth about nothing. Actually read it and count the posts that could be considered discussion. It's almost all just autistic people stimming.
>he doesnt have a game>late stage progress anchor
>>557661392Look, I know. It sucks, but I'm fucking trying
>>557661392I have a game but I'm basically given up on it because of my depression and self esteem problems.
>fygoon raging out of nowherejeffrey moment
>>557661619You should quit posting here out of shame.
You losers do not even have games. No wonder you fled from the /v/ dev topic at first sight of the man, the myth, the legend, the Fygoon Platoon.
>>557662040Good try, but Fygoon Platoon refers to the community surrounding The Frydarian Tale.
>>557662040At first, I fled this is true. But then these dev streets started getting overrun by AI tards who can't even prompt a game so I had no choice left. I colored up. https://youtu.be/gAs9HZC9c7Y&t=8
gabencunt demoralized the amateur gamedev general......
Wasted the day trying to use ai to make my game easier to make award
>>557662582FVARKKKKK
>>557662582Damn, THATS fygoon?No wonder he can be so lax with his game dev progress, he has a music career to worry about!!
>>557662262Fygoon Platoon is a street gang run by gamedev Nikolay R. Seen here as "young Tekashi Sixnine before tattoos". The similarities are undeniable.
>not collecting intelligence for federal agencies about other devs and players with your game>ngmi
ngl, I think the pink haired anime girl is pretty cool now that I know how effective it is at pissing off mexicans.I think I'm gonna start posting her as well.
>>557663471All my favorite federal agents are Mexican. : )
>>557663471what do you mean? im mexican and love bocchi desu
What did happen to agdg though? When I was here last there were usually 5-6 games posting progress + one or two lolidevs who were considered shitposters. But these days I only see lolidev and AI Army Men posting progress
How's the Betz lawsuit going
>>557664424nobody will post games anymore because of the faggot who leaked the discord and canceled mcfag. you know how easy it is to cancel someone who says nigger or faggot? normies will think you are hitler and then will not buy ur shit
>>557653440wow it sucks ass
>>557662648projected end of year = 6kwe are healing
>>557664685You seem to have it backwards, we can post elsewhere openly now that everyone knows Israel has been running intelligence operations on 4chan and Reddit.
>mcmad and 'cordxhey had it coming
>>557664685why have a discord when there's a thread?
Okay wait… Fygoon and Boku… Off the reefer? Chiefin’ the Ganj’? Smokin’ a salad bowl full of The Devil’s Lettuce? LOLI mean… /agdg/ has gone “there” before (0)_(0) (real Aggyheads know what I mean ;) ;) ;) ) But… The Dragon and The BOKU off The EDDIE’s together?Yup. This is already getting to be Le Epic. Hope the wife’s boyfriend takes her out on a hot date before this posts, Daddy’s getting into a whole situationism with DRAGON NIK, Big Boku, Betzy B, and “The Eric” ( 0_0 ) tonight…Who else is #DEVVED up?
>>557664960>He used the Kain renderNot bad, but I like the Link render better.
>>557664685I don't post progress simply because it wouldn't benefit me to post what I'm working on at the moment. The kind of games that you can expect constant progress from are also the most NGMI kind of games.
>>557664685I post games but I don't say nigger or faggot because unlike McCad I'm not room temp IQ and association is one thing but posting it with your dev handle is another
>>557664424Why would I post my game here when a schizophrenic manlizard stalks everyone who posts their game on 4chan?
>>557660908just ignore that loser. his progress posts get little to no attention so he has to resort to start drama to get attention
okay retard
>pedo elite exposed, nothing happened>hardware prices up the roof>steam machine basically cancelled>thomas sowell was right about everything>everyone on aggy is getting doxxed>discord is leaked and people's games are getting raped on xitter by hate accountsWhat's going to happen bros? I'm fucking scared.It feels like the window for GMI is either long gone or shrinking fast.Especially with steam machine and steam frame killed gaming will be in a rut for a decade.The world is fucked isn't it?AAA is more trash than ever, AA somehow found a way to be even more dogshit than AAA, we're about to have a fucking AI game apocalypse.
>>557652190I don't go to /bag/ much. I just like Momoi because she's a lazy dev like me, the other Blue Archive are pretty cute too.
>>557664424Same thing that's happened to the whole site over the last decade. The user base has degraded dramatically, all the creative energy is completely gone. My theory is that discords and twitter have been absorbing everyone capable of interacting socially on anything approaching a basic level or posting anything good enough to get updoots as their main posting grounds, so all that's left as powerusers are "people" who can't even manage to be in a discord without getting banned or ignored, just literal retards, people who can't filter their chudisms to any degree, and pedophiles. Good posters get ignored or actively scared off, and the degradation reinforces itself. You can see the same desolation in every board and thread.
>>557667040weird, I wouldn't trade anonymity and plausible deniability for being in a discord with snakes
>Dick around in Godot for 1 year>Get 2m dollars for it>get 14 million dollars the next year after>Flop to 500 playersMeanwhile there are game shitters here who make games living off of disability checkHave done so for 10+ yearsand have more downloads than most flopsExplain
>>557645691>>557645862tried to use deepseek-r1 6b, seems better but it takes >600 seconds and >1k tokens to give a single simple reply
>definitely not a shift in the intelligence agencies that operate here due to revealing information in the Epstein files >must be fygoon and betz doxxing people
>>557667595>pahdo labs
>>557667603Also, apparently "instruct" models are better for this kind of job. Normal ones are focused on being conversational o algo.
>>557667195All anonymity does in creative threads is allow people to post the most retarded babble constantly without me being able to filter them. And all you have to do to not get snaked is not say nigger or faggot with your dev account. That's it! Just post about your game! Say nigger and faggot with a different account! In exchange you get a place where you actually know the people giving you feedback have their own art/game that looks good so you should value their feedback, and can ignore people you know are drooling retards.Also worth noting, that if you become a semi recognizable figure in any way here, or any 4chan thread there WILL be autistic people who decide you have wronged them and who will attempt to do you harm if they are able to, see ANY /vg/ glub shitto.
>>557668031Sure, but the primary reason I use this site is because it gets closest to getting replies that aren't manipulated by updoots and groupthink
>>557667603>>557668004Github Copilot Pro is $10 a month, and it does 20-30k tokens in less than a minute. It is not economically feasible to use your own models locally versus US government funded corporations.
>>557668310Currently my monthly budget is ~$20 and I need to spent $10 of it for a 14 GB mobile plan to use internet, tho...
>>557667040Everytime after I post progress here I wonder why did I bother and I could've just shared it with friends on Discord.
>>557668289I think that's only true if you're posting work really infrequently. As soon as you become a recognizable thread character, you will have a mix of fans and autistic people who hate you for no discernible reason. Good feedback is also extremely rare. (You) count is an okay metric for how interesting something is I guess.
>>557668675>I could've just shared it with friends on Discord.thats how you facilitate a toxic positive environment that results in the creation of a highguard-like
>>557668650how tf do you have a machine capable of running a llama model at all and have a budget of 20 dollarsllama is only useful for RP shit.
>>557668982You can run those simple models in your phone.My specs: 4th gen i5, 8 GB RAM and RX 550 2GB (not used in AI)
>>557667691But Betz did dox fygoon.
>>557668897It really isn't if you're sharing it with other skilled people and not just non-dev fags who don't know what to say but give you ass pats. If you're actually friends with another creative person and have a relationship where you can be real niggas and you know they have good taste, it's one of the most valuable resources you can have as an artist of any kind. Talk to people you see post good shit and talk to them about art and ask for their feedback. Ignore the ones that only compliment you and develop friendships with the ones who give actionable good feedback. Way better than posting here.
>>557668818>(You) count is an okay metric for how interesting something is I guess.That's the only potential negative that people post something inflammatory but I want retards, nodevs and consoomers to tell me their honest thoughts. Posting on Reddit for example would be completely useless because you only get some toxic positivity pseudpost updooted to the top and that guy sacrificed his real opinion to get there. And Discords are the fucking worst compiling information and having coherent discussions, all that happens is the same topic gets looped over and over every week because someone didn't use the search function and just asked directly.
>>557669224IBM Granite 4.0 H Tiny 7B is a good small model for programming, runs decently on my integrated graphics, but probably to slow on your CPU. It had no issue writing short scripts updating sections of code.
>>557669263That doesn't change that every general on 4chan has seen a major shift in posting patterns the past couple months.
>>557669263Did he? Pretty sure fygoon's name is on his itch page and websight.
>>557669518A lot of discords are fucking ASS, but if you get one where the pointless yapping is well contained and the atmosphere is pro-criticism and the user base is decently skilled, it's the best place to post I've found. Most discords aren't like that of course, but if you can find ones that are it's great.
>>557669263fygoon may have been right about everything but he definitely still deserved that
>>557664424you guys let the lolidevs win
idc if hes right about anything his art and game is so bad and we know thats why we dont give him (You) when he posted game here but he doesnt want to improve so he resorts to shitting up everything because he cant get the attention in any other way
>>557670181lolitroons lost bigly toughteverbeit

THE THOUGHEVERBEIT GODS WIN AGAIN
>>557670196his game is pretty cool by 3d poonity solodev standards, idk what more do you want id be happy with more fygoon tier devs posting here
do you guys do worldbuilding? or you just focus on your characters?
>>557670834>his game is pretty cool by 3d poonity solodev standardslol
>it kinda works
I’m more focused on building a system that I can make into a full game
>>557670864My engine has lore to it. Since I’m building a procedurally generated sandbox game, I focus on worldbuilding rather than specific characters. Me and my wife are eternal staples of the Lore thoughever.But yeah, I can see myself writing some character specific lore.
>>557671392I’m getting somewhere
>>557667040Progress has been very slow for me, but even when I have something to show off, it feels too unhinged here these days to bother posting it, plus the risking some autismo swearing a vendetta on me over some imagined slight.I'd join the discord desu, but my progress is so slow it be embarrassing. Though maybe I'd help me hold myself accountable to making more progress..
>>557671878kek i remember that post
>>557671878I think I've personally been accused of being like 15 different poopdickschizos across different boards, and I don't even post much lately. Basically any time I post something slightly mean or hostile the instant reply is YEA OKAY CARNAC or something like that. What's the point of anonymous posting if like 30% of posts are dumb people accusing every single poster of their personal enemy?
Everything is fine.
>>557670864Yes I have a multi page document describing how magic works in my game's world.
>>557670864I take the Dune approach of only making up lore to the extent it is needed and useful to justify/explain the story (and gameplay mechanics)
>>557670864Usually yeah because I'd want internally consistent logic
>>557670864The story is literally just this>You're a guy who fights spirits and stuff>Your employers hate you because you're supposedly worthless>They send you to a fucked up cursed village hoping you'll die so they don't have to pay you anymore>???>Your life matters actually.
>>557667040>My theory is that discords and twitter have been absorbing everyone capable of interacting sociallytoo optimisticsociety has failed and competent people have simply given up en masse, leaving only schizophrenics, trannies and third-worlders
>>557619287Is the current humble bundle on godot instructionals solid for getting familiar with the engine?
>>557664424My game is on hiatus while I practice art so that my game will have better graphics.
>It's working>Don't know what to do nextI fixed up a lock-on system, so now you can lock onto enemies.What do I do next?
>>557674072video game tutorial books suck assjust use any of the 1000s of free tutorials online and learn the engine so you can make things without the tutorial
>>557674426npcs that can disable lock-on on them
>>557674962What do you mean?
>>557674426body part lock on so I can always stab my enemies in the dick
>>557675081That sounds nice but a bit beyond me.
>>557674426make the game fun
>>557674930Okay. I'd heard a similar sentiment but I didn't know if it'd be better to just do those and learn how to more broadly make things and t hen apply an idea or immediately pursue an idea (the only one I have in mind is a story and not a fun mechanical framework_

>>557661392i'm going for a vector graphics sort of look and it turn out i will have to use a file format that allows you to embed adjacency information in the vertices and then manually draw all of the lines in a for loop. i thought there might be some kind of shader magic that would solve this problem but not really.there are some hackish ways to approach this like using the solidify modifier on a wireframe in blender or using a texture that is transparent everywhere except the edges but i am afraid it won't look authentic.

>>557685639I didn't notice the transition. I think I was off to the races pretty early with unity 3. unity answers visits were frequent for the first few months. with AI now there's no excuses for you not to be comfortable in a week
>>557672426>What's the point of anonymous posting if like 30% of posts are dumb people accusing every single poster of their personal enemy?Just ignore them. You are not required to acknowledge every post.
I miscalculated again. It's unironically unequivocally over.
