terrible edition
you know what keeps getting shorter and shorterTIME UNTIL THE NEXT DEMODAY POST UR GODDDAMN PROGRESS
>it works
>>558626529I can't make anything.
added FPV drones that spawn with the recon drones now, they go hover over where enemies are detected and then dive bomb into any they find and explode, recon drones are still just recon dronesFPV drone on the right, recon on the left for reference
>>558627324Not with that attitude.
>>558627396damn, that's cool manhow long did it take you to make those models?
>>558627603they are not my models lol, they are in the base game i just throw them into the mission and gave them a bunch of new scripts to work properly
I think I've figured out.I only need to mix the story mode and world map mode of First Kiss!, then mix it up with the gameplay and dificulty of popeye! and the assets and polish of Kaliina.That will be basically the peak of my skills.
I'm afraid to ask anything here
>>558627965You wouldn't have to be if you were capable of asking anything but the stupidest questions.
He was right.
>>558628170*xhe
I see we're at the phase of 120% shitposting just before demo day
>>558628280How do people get stuff out so fast
truedev GMI fuel before I lock in for real this time.
>>558628920use AI
>it almost works
>>558628986MF people seem to make games way more complicated than mine in a fraction of the time even without AI
>>558629046that's because they already have gamedev experience
>>558629102Darn
>>558629524it's pretty fucking easy to just download and screw around with godot, use AI as a private teacher
welp. collision detection is a rabbit hole when you are making a 3d engine from scratch and i don't think i can vibe code my way out of this one. i might need to... read a book.
>>558629913>making a 3d engine from scratch
>>558630235let him cook...
>>558629913Nah. This is bait. No one can be this retarded.
>>558629890I've been fucking with Unity for months and I still feel useless.
>>558629005>>it almost works
>>558630641by months do you mean jerked off 24/7 and maybe opened unity three or four times for 20 minutes ?
>>558630235yes, i've been posting progress for a few days now. i buillt a renderer that's suited for the kind of game i am trying to making and made an ecs but i am still trying to get circle colliders to work. maybe i should switch to AABBs. those might be easier to implement. i have run into an issue where collisions work as normal at first and then gradually begin to accelerate out of control and it may due to an accumulation of floating point errors that have to be corrected by something called a "slop" factor (lol) which makes no sense to me.
can chat geepity please stop adding emojis to my script comments?
>>558630784No, really.I've been grinding at Unity and Blender nearly nonstop for weeks now, and I still feel worthless.
i wish i could post footage of the collision detection bugs but i'm afraid the file size would be too large for this basket weaving forum
>>558630840You're absolutely right!
>>558630840low IQ people should just leave AI to the people who can actually use it, you're wasting tokens and oxygen>>558630895that's normal btw
>>558630980>you're wasting tokens and oxygenyou are welcome
>>558630980NTA but do people really need tokens for this shit?I just use GPT to ask questions about programming and ask Gemini about the technical aspects of Blender
>>558630947Catbox?>>558630980In a good way or a bad way?
https://files.catbox.moe/4l0uid.mp4
>>558631662wow idk why the recording is so choppy
>>558631356oh, yeah, i somehow forgot about catbox. i will show you just for the entertainment value of it. i will try to totally rewrite my collision detection starting tomorrow.oddly enough, i added a friction factor to my calculations that seems to have kept things from spiraling out of control but the colliders almost seem to be "sticking" to each other in a weird way.https://files.catbox.moe/1pupag.webm
>>558631851I liek
weird, the collisions do still go nuts eventually, it just takes longer with more friction.
>>558631928it's kind of neat to look at, isn't it?
>>558632062When you say "Going nuts" what do you mean?I don't really see much going wrong there. Unless you're just holding forward and "Slip" past the objects. Maybe it's a matter of collision angle?
>>558632218it is a matter of collision angle. i just came to the same conclusion. probably has to with vectors in world coordinates vs local coordinates.
>>558632473Interesting. Do you have invisible hitboxes?
>>558632602yes, invisible hitboxes sadly. i didn't write any debug code to visualize the hitboxes. they are infinitely tall cylinders, actually.
Okay, I think I'm finally done with this shit. Gonna start working on the new enemy now.This new enemy is just like the wraith except it doesn't teleport nor does it have arms and legs so it should be easier to add since I already have everything set up.
>>558632673I think that might be the problem.There's no "Hard and flat" surface>>558632707How long did it take you to learn how to do all this?
ok so im scrapping everything again and starting a new project, it's going to be a medieval pixelated to fuck programmer art RPG like daggerfall but actually good
>>558632767>How long did it take you to learn how to do all this?he's talking shit he has no game and is just here to troll and loli post
>>558632767>How long did it take you to learn how to do all this?I learn as I go.
>>558633045fucking faggot
>>558633045yo chat is this real
Honestly, the more I go along, the more I realize that my biggest issue is art and animation inexperience at the moment.I need to figure out how to get this atmospheric.
>>558633342yeah but those things are last to polish lol
been busy did I miss anything
>>558633446Like, I initially thought this shit was just programming. But then I found out "JFC modeling this is even worse"
nigger YAPPING
>>558633906>left the door openi'm inside.
12 hours until erickino....
>>558634353I know that Eric won't care about any of us, but we should at least try
>>558634248
>>558633638basically bocchidevs wonned
>>558634532>basically bocchidevs wonnedstill yet to post game or discuss game and avatarfag for the 12920th agdg general
>Finish a bunch of animation draftsHow the hell do you model an environment
>>558634756I learned from Bob Ross.
>>558634532@grok is this true
eh...
How's everyone's year going?I'm having yet another year where everything within my control is going extremely well. Everything partially within my control is going doing ok and slowly improving. Everything outside my control continues to get slightly worse. I'm putting my chances of GMI this year from 90% to 20%. Bit of a downer but i'm still moving forwards as a whole.
>>558635498going fine thank you, gotta leave the house in a few hours to go shopping though so that's playing on my mind, other than that chilling
>>558635498I picked my project back up around 4 weeks ago, and while I've made progress I'm not where I want to be, especially compared to people who seem to be able to make massive leaps in animation and modeling daily
fixed the collision-detection bug if anyone is interested. it was an issue of not changing local coordinates to world coordinates and back. had nothing to do with rounding error or anything like that. ai is a double-edged sword. both helpful and misleading. https://files.catbox.moe/tnpu6t.webm
>>558636024Yay
>>558635490so this is the power of vibecoding...
>>558635490Everyone does everything faster than me and it makes me depressed
>>558635498Not good, Underspace got multiplayer working when I told him he wasn't going to and now all my discord friends think i'm stupid.
>>558636250If it makes you feel any better he will never finish that.
>>558636205to be fair the prompt wasn't very good, i told it to be basic, but yeah the swordplay is fucking terrible lol, i throw it out but thought i would post the "gameplay" here for whatever reason>>558636250bro you know AI is free right? claude literally just gave me download links for the files and told me where to put them, it's not hard...
>>558636342Even though I really want to finish what I have and just make like a 20 minute game, it feels like I'll never get it working on a modeling or animation level.I might have most of the main character's animations done but that's taken me so long and I don't know how I'm going to even live with myself.
>>558636467stop comparing your work to others while your still a newbie
>>558636529How is a grand spanking total of 3 months of work and practice a newbie
>>558636336Multiplayer is easy though.
>>558636602where you abused or something why are you such a downer
>>558636796Not by anyone not named me
>>558635498I project hopped. I didn't even mean it to happen I just had a tiny little idea I had to try, just to feel the mechanic... I can't stop thinking about the game and making insane progress.

>>558640484not everyone who was molested turns into a tranny, like you for example
any ttrpg devs here?
>>558640582Same, honestly.I’m aiming to create sort of a proof of concept that I could expand into a bigger game.You know that saying “Quality over quantity?”That’s what I wanna do
>>558640665That's traditional games not video games
It feels like the further I go the less I feel like I can do this
>>558641249same
does your game have diversity?
>>558641446>does your game have diversity?
>>558641446no. I thought about it, but you are just killing, and killing whites is less problematic.
>>558641446It only has like one human character. The rest of the shit you see are weird creatures
>>558641446>all niggersyou know whites have eye colors other than brown and hair other than black

My body hurts

Why Godot invented it's own scripting language instead of using one of already existing ones?
>>558645075Juan's Open sores autism forced him to make a gay retarded version of python instead of just using literally anything else.
>>558645008being a luddie at this point is signaling you cannot imagine an apple
>>558645203But Python is open source. Why not use it?
>>558645075there is a c# version you know..
>>558645014Surprisingly, RoR2 is one of three agdg games that people I know IRL have actually played/enjoyed. The other ones are Vagante and Fly Knight.
>>558645531buy an ad broski
>>558645075Godot could've just used Luau. This is why Roblox won while Godot is still open shit
>>558645558You think I'm advertising on agdg for a game that has sold millions of copies?
Donutpost with no donuts and no coffee because I have some medical examination today and I'm not supposed to eat or drink anything until it's done.I still owe 13h 20m to my game. I'm working on quest generation today. I'm going to pay special attention to this system because it'll be at the basis of economy, game balance and plot such as it is.
What's even the point of not enforcing static typing for something as complex as videogame development. It's asking for trouble.
>>558645648oh, i didn't know it sold millions, you're just an annoying redditor sounding faggot then

>>558645075>Why Godot invented it's own scripting language instead of using one of already existing ones?
>>558646951it's a valid criticism, it's fucking retarded and a major gimp for godots accessibility, juan is lucky godot took off, he's a fucking spic faggot retard
>>55864530399% of all programming languages are open source, anon. You never thought it was odd that you can just learn and use this kind of stuff without having to pay anyone?
>>558647049if a company could feasibly profit from owning and licensing a machine language they would have done it already, also it's built upon layers of other code anyway

Unreal's live coding ensured I've got extra 3 hours of work.Was it worth it?Cheatcodes also works on semantic similarity, somebody's gonna trigger it unknowingly, and it's going to be an experience.Audio necessary for this one, sorry for the volume, OBS audio mixer was poorly set:https://files.catbox.moe/837x5l.webm
My game is 2d top-down isometric with eight directional movement. I really like the way movement feels in the game but the issue with that is everytime I have to add an animation for my player or NPCs I have to make it for five unique directions. Is there a workaround to simplify this or did I screw myself with eight directional movement?

Hello! I hate writing dialog and I am bad at it. Is it acceptable to give an AI the hundreds of lines of dialog I've written and then ask it to use this same writing style to generate a bunch of extra dialog for me?Or does that make me evil?
>>558654202cattle goyim shit
>>558654202It doesn't make you evil, just creatively bankrupt
>>558654246>creatively bankrupthey dumbass the brain you have is pretty complex if you didn't know, you are basically a jumped up chimp but clearly you don't know it, fuckass
>>558654359yeah so use that brain to come up with some dialog lmao
>>558654246Yeah but I'm still writing most of the important dialog. All I want it to do is generate a bunch of filler dialog that'll be randomly spoken every now and then to make it seem like NPCs are more than just a few lines of the same dialog over and over again.But yes I will admit writing is the thing I have the least experience with and am the worst at. And having to write potentially 1000+ lines of dialog for about 38 different NPCs is something I am not looking forwards to doing!

i give upi hate my gamei hate myself
>>558654469It's a tedious process for sure, but the more you do it the easier it will becomeIf you take the AI route and have it generate a bunch of dialog for you, then you're robbing yourself of growth and falling short of your potential
>>558654645that's one less game dev to compete againstgg EZ RIP bozo
>>558648509https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icHzTDbLTnE
>>558654645hello me!don't give up please
>>558654664Ok, let me break it down for you.There is about 38 NPCs I need to write dialog for.Each NPC has a mini storyline, which will include a minimum of 5 cutscenes and 5 quests. The dialog for these varies but will be between 500-1000 lines.On top of this NPCs might have additional scenes that play if certain conditions are met.And outside of this, NPCs will have a bunch of dialog based on how friendly they are with you, where they are, the time of day, time of year and so on.This will all add up to over 1000 lines of dialog per NPC.What I wanted to do was feed all this dialog to a AI, then have it generate loads of lines of random dialog so when you talk to a NPC in the morning they wont just say "good morning" over and over and will pick from a list of random lines to say instead to make them seem like they got more to say than just "good morning".I mean, I could do this myself, but I'm already gonna be writing 6-10 books worth of dialog anyway and I'm not looking forwards to it and don't want to give myself even more work for what really wont add a lot to the game.
Does anybody else lack confidence in their games due to having unique tastes? I like weird games. I make weird games. I'm unsure how many other people would enjoy these weird games. I'm kind of hoping my game makes a little bit of money, but because my taste in games is so odd, I don't think this is likely. Oh well. Hobby. JLMG.

>>558655972but obviously you can make whatever you want, but if you make a game for "men" and expect it to do well, understand that you're competing against league of legends, counter strike, world of warcraft, the entire fighting game community, r6 seige, etcyou, as an indie dev, can not reliably compete against these corporations with thousands of employees and multi-million dollar marketing budgetmake some retarded slop for the underserved market: women, children, and men who hate aggression, and you'll have a much easier market to penetratebut of course, it makes the most sense to just make whatever you want, as long as you're making a game you're goodbut if you even slightly hope for money, don't make a testosterone game, that market is competitive

Hey guys this is not a bit or a joke but I've decided to cancel my game. You know I released a few games and I just feel burnt out and I Want to leave you wanting more. My final two games will release on April 12th but after that it's over. You know my publisher was very understanding with my decision and said if I ever wanted to come back for more in the future I could. I just want to thank you for your support and hope you're looking forward to the release of the final two games
>>558656694coon town is my favorite from the guy, also he's like 89% from my vibe an alphabet from the start, idk bro southern ground dickhead sounds like a professional fed studio, you tell mehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=boRzFrmcM60

>>558656850Make sure you put them up for free on itch so shovelware devs can steal them and release them as their own games on the nintendo eshop
>>558657054Theyre making a joke about Smiling Friends, anon.
>>558657096Well excuuuuuse me for being out of the loop when it comes to normie animation shows
When you paint shadows on a texture for that unlit look, is there a way to map the fake shadows in such a way that they vanish when they are "supposed" to be lit? Like, you have a light that doesn't affect the texture except for removing fake shadows and the light hits them.Like, I'm sure there is a way, but I don't know what is the name of the technique I'd be using here. Is it just making the shadowed bits from a different material and attaching a texture-swapping shader to it?
>>558657175it's not even a good show

Hear me out. An arcade machine with /agdg/ and /v/ games...
>>558658578nuh uhhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATlszssL-eI
>>558659009Never ever
>>558659608I wasn't saying that as a suggestion for somebody else lol. I was thinking about doing it myself.
>>558659752mite b cool
if i kill myself they win
>>558651551sus
>>558659959I have an old arcade machine that I ended up frying by accident based off of me following instructions off of someone from /g/. It sucks because it means I would have to throw out the original monitor which still works but is nigh impossible to hook up to modern components that would be needed to run such a project. The other issue is, if anons were willing to put their games on a "/v/cade" then it would require them to tweak their games a little bit to fit an arcade setting which I don't know if people are willing to do.
fuck the market
Governmentcunt has took his pay
I have been crunching for only a few days and I'm already exhaustedhow do pro gamedevs do this for years?
Can you click on this link and tell me if you also got a 404?https://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/unreal/Of course it's gonna be down the day I wanted to learn that shit.
>>558660621literally why would someone lie about this

>>558659752If you get that running I might dev a fighting game
>>558660597my gov has a loophole for the big boys where you pay 20% corporate tax and almost 0 on dividends but it's only worth it above $50k or so
>>558660597>Make something>Gaben takes 30%>Gubmint takes 50%>Engine takes 5%>Everyone profits more than you
>>558660597>pay government>get healthcare and pensionworth>pay gabenment>get refunded and algo buriedNO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION
>>558660737Nah I'm at work, I was thinking maybe they blocked the website or something.
>>558660871if my game was getting 100k+ in revenue, i wouldn't even mind retaining only 10k
>>558654202Ignoring all the AI stuff, you are evil if you're a pedophile. Are you?
>>558660849Who do you hire tho get you that kind of loopholes?
>>558661364Why the heck do you keep asking me this? Are YOU a pedo?
>>558661383That's the best part, you don't
>>558661440word on the street is some of the bunnies you've been posting were underage female bunnies
>>558661440He's our resident pedoschizo. Got that way through the years of built up jealously of the lolidevs making more progress than he ever could.
>>558661662 I love cuniculus!!!
rendering my game at a higher resolution made me realize the blur shader i was using looks like shit and just straight MSAA looks better. on an LCD display, the black background creates a natural bloom effect due to the backlighting. this probably would look pixelated as hell on an OLED monitor. might be worthwhile to write an actual bloom shader and another for barrel distortion.
>>558661123nah i was kidding lol
you guys are a bunch of sad sacks, is everyone in here depressed?
>>558662163not me I'm a bundle of sunshine and I work on my game daily
>>558662163Im not :)
>>558662163
>>558662163i'm sad and will die alone and i work on my game regardless.
>>558662163i have 2 modes>thinking of good mechanic ideas while doing chores>dumbfounded once godot is opened
>He still doesn't add alt text to his progress posts
>>558662163I'm not depressed, I'm just permanently sad that I don't get to have a cute girlfriend to make games with.

>>558661440>>558661662>>558661693>>558661732But lying samefaggot, the photos of children began appearing shortly after you showed up. Also kill yourself, especially if you really are a pedophile.
>>558663448>photos of children
>>558654202Bundev? Cancer still hasn't taken you?
>>558654202It's the thought that makes you evil
making a game i want to play, i have doubts if others would enjoy this
>>558654202Using AI to write your game is valve approved. Anything valve approves is objectively good.
>>558663139imagine releasing your game and everyone loves it, you'll have so many cute girlfriends

>>558664609Reach inside your anus and you will find the answer.
>>558664609>but quiet the retard thoughYeah, don't worry about it you'll figure it out if you bash your head against the wall enough times
>>558664475no, wrong, explicitness
>>558654202>and then ask it to use this same writing stylewhy don't you focus on how to do that faster instead?
>>558663448you truly are a schizo. we need all loli hating schizos banned
>>558665017Im not advocating for it but like a decade ago people spammed loli hentai to scare off the loli haters
>>558664945I can write hugely highly super fast. It's just not fun to write variations of "good morning" or "i hate the rain" 1000 times.
>>558665095they'll just spam the neogina back
>>558665095how about you all just fuck off with your pornographic turf war and focus on video games
no motivationno disciplineno vision
spamming is genuinely OP
>>558664748>>558664809Damn, this general got way fucking worse. Who would have thought
>>558658578manhunt was for kids?
>>558658578>Previous generations of gamedevs made games for primarily children. Our generation make games for adultsBecause all the children are permanently playing Fortnite and Roblox.There simply is no way for an indie dev, or really any size dev team, to tear children away from Fortnite and Roblox.
>>558665740you came at a bad time, the last thread was actually fairly decent. Also there's a good chance both posts are the same guy
>>558665259hmmm, this could give you some ideashttps://medium.com/swlh/zork-the-great-inner-workings-b68012952bdc
bear with me, this is hilarious
>>558663608As >>558592939 and >>558600065 .>>558665017The schizo is you, not me. Your inspect-element is not impressive. Kill yourself, pedophile Bundev.
What is the main progression metric for your game?For me, it's clearing out enemies from levels.
>>558661440reminder that this pedophile lied about dying from cancer
>>558666319that's fucked up>>558665740here you go
>>558666327if you do what the game wants, you get to see what happens next
>>558665017>>558665095the more you ritualpost and broadcast your fetish the more people will target you, its that simplewe dont need to know your fucked up sexual deviancy in the amateur gamedev general, if trannadev was just posting progress instead of begging to get shat on with ritualposts xhe would get way less hate
>>558666605WTF
>>558666895When it works, it works, okay. You don't understand since you're not working on a game.
i have some basic ass number go up games that i'm working on, they're probably boring but i don't care, i'm going to release them anyways
>>558667127all im saying is to stop playing the victim, pedophilia or not you're one of the most obnoxious attention whores in here so when you get that attention dont cry about "muh oppreshun against lolidevs"i released 2 games while you dropped your walking sim for another walking sim, talk to me again when you have a game on steam, faggot
>>558667547Links to you game?
why are you all disrepecting engine devs?
>>558668150engine devs are kind of like people who do bouldering
>>558667547he makes game, you dontits pretty clear who is more welcome in this thread
>>558668264theres nothing wrong with bouldering, some people just happen to like it
>>558667732>>558668428i said talk to me again when you have a game on steam, reading comprehension much?
claude just "monkey-patched" some shit.
so yeah I've got this multiplayer fps base done, I don't know what to do with it.
>>558665259another thing, we recently gained a nodev attention whore obsessed with trans, pedos and AI, his whole purpose is to shit into others to make them feel bad and stop devving to feel better with himselfthis retard can't stand that agdg have their own interests other than him, unfortunately he targeted you since, I assume, we're nice with you, so be preparedpurely neverdev behavior, just ignore him
>>558668673I don't believe you have made a game, is all.
>>558668150Enginedevs are peak Dunning-Kruger. It wouldn't be a problem if they decided to enginedev after putting significant effort into learning and shipping some small games in each of the major engines and then concluding that enginedev would be better for them after gaining that experience, but that's never they case. They're all young, mostly fresh CS-grad, kids with zero real experience who have deluded themselves into thinking they know better than countless industry experts. None of them will ever ship a game.
>>558669078>there is only one person that dislikes the fact that i broadcast my sexual deviancy in the amateur gamedev generalgo ahead and call me joshua or fygoon or betz or whoever your thread enemy is that day
>>558669210I wish I could join forces with some enginedev so I could just tell him>let me handle makings of the game, you do the engine
>>558669251You're not a dev, you have no name on here.
I mean, how cool is that? You will never know the true joys of gamedev if you don't enginedev
>>558669436you're not a dev, you have no game on steam
>>558669251yeah, it's not like those retards never do that
>>558668150Modern game devs have this weird inferiority complex when it comes to actual software engineers. They think doing anything beyond copy pasting code they found online or using AI is a waste of time. Imagine telling Pixel he should just use Gamemaker instead of making his own engine for Cave Story.
>>558669605very cool can you recreate the wheel as well?
>>558669210Uh... But we already have AGDG enginedevs that released games tho...
>>558669773yeah I agree, if you can't engine dev you're not a TrueDev sadly
>>558669606work in progress, but how about showing us your 2 games
>>558669874Are you talking about that one AGP simulator that took something like 7 years to ship, made less than Mexican minimum wage, and could've been made in a few weeks by a teenager in GZDoom?
>>558670148work in progress for 5 years? maybe less shitposting and more devving, you have no game on steam yet post here all day i cannot browse /agdg/ without seeing your tired shitposts, this is not healthy seek help
>>558670453But I started last year. Also post games pls?
Success breeds jealousy.
>>558670756this tbqhwyfam
>>558670215No I'm talking about Lethal League. I'll leave estimating its revenue up to you.

>>558669210it's one of many ways not to face your lack of confidence or experience in certain skillsif you know you can code (maybe because you have a CS degree), wasting years on enginedev is a great way never to face your shortcomings in art and music
C++ > C#
>>558670964Problem?
first, you devise a progression metric, then, you establish context to make it meaningfuleverything else is personal expression
>>558670937>indoor shoes>on the tabledo am*ricans really?
>>558671017>not doing art and music while enginedevving
>>558671215it's so you don't step in rat shit
>>558671109did you learn that from youtube
>>558671313no
Joey Fygoon was right...

Submissions open up March 15th to May 23rd for the 2026 show (airing 6/6/26 at 7pm EST). Additionally, we will not be continuing with the winter showcases moving forward and returning to the one show a year format. To supplement the void in the schedule, we will be hosting another game jam from September 27th to October 4th. We hope to see you there.
Step 1 out of 94122 to upgrade my tech from multithreading to computeshader is working okay enough.Time to publish it cause otherwise I will stay stuck on it instead on moving on to step 2 (adding more type of collision, some friction, collision events, and raycasts):https://nitisdev.itch.io/souls>what's the gameplay?There is none, it's a fucking tech demo about boids. You can change the boids' parameter to make them do... boid stuff but more crooked. You can make explosion/implosion around them in case you want a really inconvenient way to draw dicks in the sand.And that's pretty much it.You can also change how many boids the game use (default at 500 000), in case someone want to test how high/low their own GPU can go.
>>558627440Neat model, artist name?
>>558674013not all trannies are evil, some are victims of especially other tranniesno accident that trannies that air regrets (like over surgery) in public are hounded by the evil subset of trannies
>>558669773It's the difference between asking permission and just doing it, so the enginedev just speaks a different language. It does cause friction when devs try to discuss things and one of them is fighting Unity to let them make their game and the other just doesn't get it because lack of control isn't a thing in enginedev-userland.
>>558674393>not all trannies are evil, some are victims of especially other trannieshmm... hmmmmit's hard to believe that an authentic human with the divine spark could carry out such a grotesque and harmful rebellion against his inborn nature

I’m tired
>>558675183everyone born since ~1980 has been robbed of meaningful real-life experiences by boomerism and the epstein classgames are one of the only sources of meaning in millions of people's lives

>>558675080yet there is extreme group pressure, indoctrination, harassment, etc., especially against vulnerable victims, especially while they are young or very youngit is often done specifically to sabotage, damage and destroy targeted victims
I feel like existence hates me
>>558675183Life is a game.
>>558675378Lmao. Get a life, loser.
>>558675378"Games have meaning" fucking killed video games. It's why indieslop is synonymous with Bokura-likes, Isaac clones, Undertale and Celeste rippffs. And that's it. Because you truly believe if you just wrapped whatever dumbass things you have to say into a Celeste clone, it suddenly becomes new and "meaningful." And it isn't just indie devs: corporate devs do it too, and I would guess nobody here has a problem telling regarded devs to fuck off when they eschew "game" for "meaning." Write a fucking book, gamers don't care, otherwise they'd be called readers, genius. Your game needs to be fun, not "meaningful."
>>558675716Why not bothMeaningful game experiences can also be fun, and they should be funThat makes a memorable gaming experience
>>558675716>>558675864never forget what they took from us
>>558675428>erics playerbasegod I wish that was me
I just wish I could model
>>558675864If you're conflating meaningful with fun then you can mutate the intent into anything you want. In this context "meaning" is anything beyond the bare metal story beats to get the game to happen, and "fun" is the game. Basically: stop copying trends and assuming it'll all work out because you added a depressed main character ffs. One if the game is fun then everyone mashes through your story to get more game, but if the game and story are both bad then you're just another piece of shovelware. Conclusion: sideline "meaning" for "fun." Nobody had fun simply remembering the story from Halo, they had fun with the game and the story came along with it, otherwise there'd be a class of Halo fans utterly divorced from the game, like how there's Game of Thrones fans and ASOIAF fans. But there's isn't because gamers want to game.
>>558676037You mean to say that you wish you could automatically gain the skills that everyone else already put in tens of thousands of hours into mastering without having put in that same level of effort in yourself.
>>558661161you are a part of the problem
>>558676343How long would it take to truly learn modeling
>>558676343Some people are never, ever going to understand art or aesthetics, it is unironically harder than coding. And I can prove it by taking any coder with no art skills and training them for a day to make portraits; they can't make portraits. Versus a portrait artist with a day of coding, they will understand the semantics and be on par with the hypothetical coder within a month, whereas on the other side, the coder will take years to learn the art. It sounds like a meme but art works out: muscle memory, general memory (for anatomy, perspective, color theory), problem solving, it's a lot of shit. Good artists are more valuable to any team than any coder could ever be. There, I said it.
>>558676436There is no endpoint.
>>558676436>AI Overview>Mastering a complex skill generally takes around 10,000 hours of deliberate practice, a concept popularized as the "10,000-hour rule" for achieving expert status. This equates to roughly 5–10 years of consistent, focused effort. However, reaching reasonable proficiency (not elite mastery) can take just 20 hours of focused practice.
>>558676589>malcolm gladwell said it that means it's true!
>>558658130nortubel draw more of the black girl with a penis fucking the ginger boy and the clown girl
>>558676559It is harder, yes
>>558676559it works both waysthere are lots and lots of people in the world who will never be able to code, too(some of the people who will never be able to code are employed as senior developers)
This is who you're making games for.
>>558677043you know who he means by "modern game developers"
>>558677043hating your customers won't help you, and you are cherry picking
>>558677043Blame not the gamer, but the game developers who have scorned themWe must be better devs
>>558676559You can teach a smart codefag how to trace and kitbash in an afternoon the same way you can teach a smart artfag how to copy and paste existing code in an afternoon. It'll take months if not years to teach a codefag how to do construction, sketching, and design the same way it'll take months if not years to teach an artfag data structures, algorithms, and system architecture. You're not comparing equivalent things.
should I be engine lolcow or should I just dev?
>>558676876Eh, coding is like language. Yes, some people are going to be adept at it, but everyone can learn it. Art is just... Idk. People push pencils around for 30 years and can't draw a circle, I would be well and truly shocked if we stripped away the hyperbole and found 30 year devs who couldn't print hello world.
>>558677237How
>>558677185They're not equivalent at all, that's the point lil bro. Coders can skate on copied code, and they do, drawers can't. Your star coder can be Ctrlc and v, your artist can't be. Coding is unironically probably the least important thing you'll need to get done, and can go to the least skilled person. Drawer would be coding at industry standard LONG before coder was drawing at industry standard, years.
>>558677043Yeah, they hate modern game devs (directors and publishers) who hate their audience and are only in it for the money
>>558677498I need to know how
>>558677043The most entitled gamers have their fat asses firmly planted on the peak of mount stupid. They are convinced they could make a game no problem. >>558677498>Coders can skate on copied code, and they do, drawers can't.Oh shit say hi to the gamers up on mount stupid for me nigga
>>558677463Art is just weird. The skills can be quantified but not qualified (easily) so it requires 1: someone who wants to draw, 2: someone with a brain that lets them do something embarrassing until they are good but also 3: a brain that juggles complex problems and translates them to paper (ie depth, perspective, anatomy, etc). And while obviously this is hard, most people land in "bad," but a lot of people land in "did you try to draw a face or have a fucking stroke?" Which idk if that's a thing for coding, but how could it be when really you just remember the shit, or remember to look it up? Art filters something HARD in people. Go to /ic/, and see the 10 year beginners.
feels good to make low poly wifus.>>558676037>>558676436just do it nigga.
>>558677498You're saying programmers aren't important because other programmers did the hard work for you but you can easily say the same thing about artists and asset packs.
>>558677787I wish I knew what to do if I wanted textures
>>558677498>Coders can skate on copied code, and they do, drawers can't.The first difference is that junior programmers can land six figure jobs while junior illustrators/animators such as tween artist are lucky to not be homeless. The second difference is that programmers encourage their juniors to copy while artists have a meltie when their juniors trace. Senior-level skillsets take a lot of time and effort to require, regardless of the industry.
>>558677991You could, if you forget that you're making a game and nobody cares what code is there but they DO care what art is there. Look: can you replace your lead coder and players care? No, they wouldn't care. Can you replace your lead pencil pusher and players care? Yes, they would care.
I appreciate all the programmers and artists :)We wouldn't have games if we couldn't all work together, right?Musicians are there too
>>558678107This is a different set of problems and you're either not aware of or omitting the extreme amount of keyboard jockeys putting fries in bags>But they're not good enoughYeah okay and the artists who are good enough make more than the coders, what about it?
>>558678091Unless I just took pictures of IRL stuff and used those
>>558678151People do care if the code is shit. Plenty of 10k+ wishlist games with great art stall out in the first few days because of mixed reviews about game-breaking bugs and lag.
>>558677237>I would be well and truly shocked if we stripped away the hyperbole and found 30 year devs who couldn't print hello world.30 years is too much, because by that point they've weaseled their way into management, but they absolutely do exist. i've worked with them and even tried to train them. not even jeets - white american guysi agree with you in part though. i think that most people who "can't" do art or code are actually suffering from a mental block/defense mechanism, where it's more psychologically comfortable to say you're not good at something and not genuinely try to get better, instead of trying and opening yourself up to the possibility of failureit's easier to push people past the mental block with code than art, because left-brain stuff is treated more rigorously than right-brain stuff in general
>>558677220You say that until the engine dev has a bespoke developer environment with pure sovl.https://youtu.be/8eYR9-BupOU
>>558678303Yep
>>558678151The code IS the game. Its literally the gameplay. Take the art away from doom and replace it with something else and you end up with free doom which is still obviously doom. Take the code away and you have nothing.Not to mention Synty games do well all the time. Original art really doesn't matter as much as you are saying.
>>558678532NTA but that’s my problem.I have most of my code done, but I can’t really model or draw all that well.I CAN, but just not very well.
>>558678532The programming is the game, the code is syntax. Take away the code and you just need another language to speak. Nobody cares what language is being spoken, or how well, because it's all wrapped up in a multimedia project.
>>558678692
Ah, loops...
>>558678692but you still need somebody who speaks one of the languages
>>558677043No, I'm making games for the Japanese.
>>558670937never give up
>>558678852Yes, and? Take away the code/coder and you need a new language/translator. Take away the wrapper and you need a new identity.

Claude is my only friend...
>>558679417Is Claude actually good? I've been holding off because I assume they are bad but having another worker would be a game changer. Can I just tell it not to code bugs?
>>558679417I'm too nervous to talk to the AI in voice, I don't know what to say
Good morning, time to make some proggy.
>>558679534Its good but you really need to buy the max sub for it to actually be useful beyond small projects or scripts. You'll constantly hit your usage limit on the lower tier sub.
>>558679624I can’t
>2 views>0 downloads
>>558679658For 2400 a year that AI nigga better print diamond code. I guess it depends how tightly you control it? I see people saying that they give it a one liner and get "something" back, which I assume is non functioning. But for game dev you would be constantly writing and chatting.
>>558678953when being on steam meant a game with standards...
>>558679893Its fine but its not amazing. Its like having a team of indian contractors so it will run but expect bugs and/or poor performance. You can prompt it to deal with the bugs but yeah with the lower tier sub you're going to burn through your credits really really fast.
I’m just sad
>>558679884Hug
>>558679624Enjoy your proggy. Time for work for me.

>>558681458Just imagine, Eric could give every promising dev from here $100k for them to finish their games. We could all make it...Bokube would be done and released already. Acrolyte could pay other artists and coders for help. Any hobbydev could transform into a real 12 hours per day dev, Yark, Dirk, Alchemickal, Plunderground, Paloo Spiral, Air Strip Angel, Alucard Grandpa, any game stuck in perpetual development cycle could go full steam ahead. Just imagine (you)r game getting that boost man...

>>558682340Honestly it would make my life easier because it’d mean I could pay artists/modelers/animators to help me finish this shit faster
>>558682434If you want to make money from a game you spent years making you're le bad because some faggot who touched godot once said so.Basically just permabeg and nodev mobbing
>>558679534been using it for 1 week(sonnet 4.6) , free tier. hit the usage limit often, but I just work on art in that time. so, it's kind of a nice tempo. I'm making a small game though, like 4 week gamejam level. I do know how to code though, I just don't feel like it.
>>558682568How many years
>>558682568The dev responded to the video saying he copied undertale too much and understood the criticism. But appreciated that people cared enough about his game to make video essays
>>558682713*forgot toe say, when it's good it's very good and when it's bad it's very very bad.

Seems like a comfy place to idle a tab while I do stuff.
>>558684450Honestly it depends on what you use it for.I’m a solo dev. Maybe if I got 100k I could pay artists or modelers to help me out. Modeling and animation and art are my biggest hurdles, and it wouldn’t hurt to have some help

i keep project hopping
>>558690906You are literally replying to the "green dragon". That guy is actual genuine scum. He has been kvetching about pedophiles for a long time now while using his phone to constantly samefag and either glaze himself or agree with himself.This thread has suffered severely ever since the mods stopped caring about this general.I don't usually make negative comments, but I am kind of approaching my limit with how blatant his antics are.I was one of the few people who defended Fygoon (aka alicefag) for all the hate he was getting, even though, in retrospect, it should have been clear to me that it was a result of his personal failing. If you check his first few posts on /agdg/, he was the one who kept starting fights with other posters.I actually have a bleeding heart and tend to side with underdogs/ people who get bullied a lot around here, but Fygoon has been so extremely antagonistic, self-centered, manipulative and vengeful that even my unconditional empathy for outcasts had started to fatigue.I am 100% convinced that the only reason he is lashing out against "pedophiles" is to compensate for his crooked character. His personality is so rotten that the only way he has to prop himself up is to take other people down.I can't imagine how ashamed I'd be of myself if this were my conduct. Knowing that Fygoon doesn't feel that shame quickly nullified anything positive I may have had to say about him.
>>558693521nice post nick
>>558692040>fygoonmore like dragon khan clone

>>558693521Now do a character analysis on the other two
>>558689471UI work is one of the most fun aspects of gamedev as long as you have a sane foundation to build off. Put on some music and spend some time picking out colors and icons, dragging and dropping widgets into the layout, moving and resizing things on screen with immediate feedback. Shit's like the gamedev equivalent of playing with legos or doodling.
>>558691890Yes. I want more followers. More fans. More enemies.
you guys do anything but devving huh
added head bobbing and sprinting. i'm starting to feel the fatigue of weeks of devving and i need a break.
>>558693521He's replying to me and I'm not fygoon, I don't like pedos and shitposting and I guess that is what triggered this outburst but I stand by that. You are insane.
>>558693097that's fine, if you have no issues with creating a popular game and has no issues with opening up a project to work on it then there's more power to you. The underlying problem is that creative people suffer when squeezed into a box of "what sells the most", and I'm one of them.
>>558694150in my defense genuine dev work is so exhausting i need to take breaks to avoid migraines and deliriumthankfully i have so much passion for gamedev that i never burnout, i just hit a biological soft wall and need to take a break
Game dev music on, time to finish these animations.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEnVcYLmXUs
https://x.com/thedorbrothers/status/2026733954942775433what do we think?
>>558694497You'll only find misery at the end of that path. Any game worth playing is worth paying for. You cannot disconnect the attention economy with the monetary economy. The things you might be passionate about might not be something viable as a solo indie dev with no experience and no resources. Every one of your most beloved video games were made by sizable teams of skilled and experienced wagies with a profit motive.
>>558694150i have been devving almost sunup to sundown for weeks but i'm getting close to burnout
>>558693521you must be new here but finally you're getting it, he was always judged not by the color of his skin but the contents of his character
Creativity isn't a blank canvas. Creativity is being able to find clever solutions when presented with constraints and limitations.
>>558693521at least you came to your senses, fygoon was always the biggest retard here and on /v/, I saw his posts on /v/ and was hoping he'd stay there, but no, he had to bring his ugly persona here.
>>558695651you wont be able to gaslight people into believing that 'goon is the only one who dislikes pedophiles btw
Now if only we could get rid of the other two plagues here. Maybe we'd have good threads again...
>>558695696True, if anything constraints and setbacks should give you more ideas, not less if you're creative
ayy lmao
>>558684084good stuffreminder to polish your game
>>558696050dislike, sure, but you can't say that anyone posting an anime reaction image is one. That's the biggest disconnect here and fyg is the perpetrator of that thought shortcut>connect anime to pedos>call all anime posters pedosIt doesn't work like that and you should be aware you've been manipulated by him
>>558696127its ok on video but those filters are vomit inducing in gameplay, i'd tone it down otherwise night lighting and mood
>>558696338>and fyg is the perpetrator of that thought shortcuthe wont be able to gaslight me into believing that either because its retarded
>>558696338he's also heavily indoctrinated and he has a older sister, coincidence?
>>558694678How do you do this so fast
>>558696338you're also getting it wrong, he just loves the attention and does whatever for it, so if calling people pedos gets him attention like those youtubers
>>558696567Is she hot?

>>558695696well said anon. btw watch this for good creativity tips: https://youtu.be/9C_HReR_McQ
>>558696897she looks like she could be cris' his sister so no
>>558696110And yet it's somehow always the (self-proclaimed) most creative amongus who are the first to collapse under the limitations of their own skills and resources and the constraints posed by market supply and demand.
slop is fun if you're in a retarded mood

>>558707717Nice concept, sorry about the weak mind samefagging e-celebs. I think the camera being stationary might not be the best idea for gamefeel but it could be a fun game if you expand on the idea and add formations and modifiers.
>>558708375High Five!
