I'm a steamie, I make slop!I don't care if all my games will flop!Gabencunt can take all my pay,And I won't care, that's the steamie way!
Despite all the viral tiktoks and xitter posts it looks like PAT is a flop, what can we learn from this? Millions of views for a few hundred sales.
>>561132814prove it
>>561132308...from discorders who played this(or probably just turned game on and went to play something else while it was running to run up the playtime so they can review it)and gave it a review because its a game from their discord not because they are actually intrested.Those 110 reviews arent 110 random people who saw this and loved the premise and the artstyle and are going to obsess over it and tell all their family and friends about this game.They are basically just botted reviews but with human bots.
First time I animate smoke.
I project hopped. I didn't mean it to happen... I just found a very fun game to make(via a tiny prototype) that would only take me 2 months at most. I used to view hopping as a very bad thing, I'd never learn to finish a game if I keep doing it...
>>561132814Wireworks moggs
this CANT be the correct way to make a savefile...
>>561133220>>561132814both insanely good numbers.puzzle and incremental chads fucking win again...
>>561133360Why? If it works it works.This is how mine looks:S8Supgradest8tS1Skn1n1S4Skeyss1sk
>180 sales on a product you spent 10 years of your life making is considered "insanely good" in gamedevIs this true?Gamedev is grim....
>>561133608
>>561132814>Despite all the viral tiktoks and xitter posts it looks like PAT is a flop, what can we learn from this?gamedev is all about luckthat one german cunt being spammed all over the internet who likely made 10x more than this game did proves that
>>561133785>"estimations"lol
>>561133608Wireworks was made in 6 months.
>>561134072And yet it beat a game someone spent 10 years on and tens of thousands of dollars on botting tiktok views on.Its so unfair.Some people pour their life into something and it sells slightly less than some doodle made in 6 months.
>visit my steam profile that I didnt use in years>500 hours on blender and I'm still worse than Cris>friend who went to gamedev college with me died>a girl I was in love got a 500xp badge in some /agdg/ game
>>561133608Objectively? They're flops but their 'cord friends won't admit that, anything below fastfood worker wage is a flop and most games are not even close to fastfood wage.
>>561134783why are agdg games so popular with transwomen? i get so many follows on twitter from trans flags profiles
>>561134783>gamedev college
Remember: Your game can't flop in sale numbers if it's free.
there were anons who were realising how bad things are in 2022 (even before ai slop hit steam en masse) and yet in 2026 we still have retards denying that there are problems with the market. how?
>>56113595350 out of those 60 games flop because of 0 marketing (or because they think posting a shitty video on reddit is marketing)
>>561135485that's like clown college only even more ridiculous
>>561135953>"go in with low expectations"I got that part covered
>>561132814You think puzzledevs make puzzle games expecting millions of buckeroos when they and everyone else knows that puzzle games are one of the worst possible game types to make for money?Unlike platformers where people make them out of naivety.
the good: i am finding that i don't have complete aphantasia and can draw a minotaur from imaginationthe bad: my minotaur is just a world of warcraft tauren
>>561137029it looks like a FOTM gambling game to me. not puzzle so yeah he probably expected millions
>>561137308I'm having a hard time imagining a minotaur handling a belt buckle every time he takes a piss or dresses.
>>561137429i can barely dress myself. how can you expect my fantasy creatures to know how?
>>561135485I went to CS university with a specialization in gamedev and I got a job at a game company now
https://www.reddit.com/r/IndieDev/comments/1s0gy79/weve_received_over_1000_negative_reviews_but_were/https://store.steampowered.com/app/3810880/THE_CUBE_SAVE_US/this is still better than no reviews
>>561137427poke all toads is FOTM gambleslop???
>>561137308lil bro broke his legs
>>561137308my minotaur is a 4ft girl with a fat dick
>>561132814100 reviews in 2 days is extremely good for a game of this nature
>added 2 systems to my game that will be able to increase variation by x10000 with less than 100 loc eachThis ain't sounding right, it was too easy.
>>561138807oh no i meant the other game wirework
>>561138825how is a cow supposed to walk on its hind legs anyway? i did my best.
>>561139024such is the beauty of efficiency
>>561138779kek, for me it's this one; reddit nigga brags that his game flopped but at least it as 100% positive reviews on reddit, gets his first negative reviews just after thatredditors are petty
>>561138779>free gamefree games get reviews easier than paid ones, this means nothing
>>561139024your real bottleneck will be getting anyone to give your game a try even if it's free. so it's not easy, it's just the difficulty is elsewhere.
>>561139295think harder about what you said
Progress:I'm about to start a new work out session.(in my game)
>>561139640good luck have fun
fucking gabencunt killed yet another game... how do we stop him, bros?
>>561140079I guess I'll have to do it...I'll post my game on itch
>>561140079Why did they remove it?
https://files.catbox.moe/955x4p.mp4Fygoon won, /agdg/ lost. Send Xeet.
>>561140716considering that the page of the game is still accesible, and the dev said nothing, no ideagabencunt probably just felt like screwing over a random dev today

I still dont know how 2D physics golf game made $15kLike, why?
>>561141176I want to be mad at you for insulting my honor but PoE music hits the somber gspot.
>make shitloads, yet somehow end up in crippling debtsuch is the steamie way
>>561141442your music is fine except as a gamedev you shouldn't want it changing to something completely different every 5 minutes and have lyrics. from the research I've looked at it's best to work in silence, but if you have music it should be something that can fade into the background.
>look up gifs of wizards walking for inspiration, having trouble animating the robes>every google result is of wizards in pants and shortsso fucking lamewizards wear robes, anyone can animate legs
>>561141809Just have them glide around like they're hovering without actually moving their legs
>>561141602well even if your game is a success you don't have that much left over because fatfuck gabencunt
I asked this in a previous thread but where does one even begin programming an MMO like this or oldschool Runescape?
>>561141809you draw a mannequin in a walking pose then trace the wizard and his robes on top of that
>>561141602>the first tree is almost 10 years oldDamn, I still remember the reddit post that went viral.
>>561142323First you make Pong.Then you make it multiplayer.Then you get rid of the ball and let the paddles move in any direction.Then you replace paddles with a sprite with walking animation.Then you add obstacles so characters have to go around them.Then you give each character an attack animation.Then whenever a character attacks, if another character is next to them they take damage.and so on.But step 1 is always Pong.
>>561142218are you in favor of itchio instead or how do you propose indiedevs get their games out to consumers without using steam? do you have any numbers to back up that its better to release on platforms other than steam because the lower cuts offset the marketing steam gives you? genuinely curious as this might inform my decision about where i release.
Why the fuck am I marked as inactive on the v3cord?
>>561142785eldon "zukjeet" betz woke up and started spamming dogshit advice and ecelebs, yippie!!!!
>someone mentions v3>Immediately the schizo starts posting his namefag and buzzwordsLike clockwork
>>561143552>dogshit adviceOk, you give him better advice on how to make an MMO. Other than not even trying, obviously.
>>561143817ok here is my adviceJUANjust use AI nigga
>>561144095That phrase doesn't spell "Juan" it spells "juain" you fucking retard.
>>561142925i mean you realistically have no option other than releasing on steam if you want to make any serious money. if you want to go itch.io only then you have to be viral on social media to overpower the steamie cult. mostly what i am trying to do is to just raise awareness among devs and make them demand that valve does better. totalbiscuit put it best, because they have a majority marketshare and make so much money they have a responsibility
I look at all these wierd looking youtubers gamedevs on youtube and I think I don't really want to be like them
>>561144223the v3expo is spelled slashveeslash3expo actually
its not fair that other people are better than me at making thingsits not fair that they have motivation and discipline, and passion that i dont have
I just got the best idea last day while I was hunting some raptors for stolen silver.When I make it in a few months and become famous, is there anything specific you want me to do when I'm on Thomas Brushes late night show?
>>561144425That has 0 relevance to what anyone is talking about. You're just using buzzwords because you know I'm right about "JUAIN"
>>561137308Look up different sources of inspiration.

I've lost all hope. I'm a nodev. I will never finish anything. All my projects are shit. I will never make any money with gamdev.
>>561144493laugh at his face
>>561146921Sounds like something is happening down the hall in another room. I'm doing a 360 and walking away.
>>561133116Neat
I am dededepressed
Just two weeks left to finish the comic for the contest, then it's over. D:
>>561146638Lol why is it so bad to just ask AI what a microservice is and read the explanation?
I'm coming for you.
>>561146638AI can be used well or poorly. Just like Stack Overflow or Tutorials or even books could be used well or poorly.It is that simple.>>561142323ask AI.
>>561151959my only chance is if the players see as little of my game as possible before buying it and then forget to play it which is around 10% for my previous games
>>561151818He sort of admits it in the video that he saw tech CEOs making a killing while being fucking retarded so he decided to become a cult leader instead and that's one of the things they do to try and isolate you. Most of them have a similar rhetoric like distance yourself from your friends they're holding you back, you need to quit your job and go into my field and then offer the "solution". Reasonable people can see that AI is useful, not everyone is able to realize where that ends but everyone uses AI (references his own GPT use 5 times in the video) it's just their AI use is different somehow.
>>561152180AI would be pretty amazing if I were the only one with access to it.
>>561112565100 hours, 0 hours.Autism is more powerful than any stimulant.
>>561152180I can see how AI threatens the 'buy my course bro' influencer spiel.
You thoughts on crimson desert?
>>561152463he launched his website in 2025, how much you wanna bet an LLM came up with that idea?
>>561153201who?
>>561153201Koreans have the unique ability to remove soul out of anything they touch, it's almost an artform
>>561153201I was excited at first because I thought it was an MMO sequel to Black Desert. It was not so I don't care.
I just realized that Fygoon is Flygon minus the fly.
>nuns and guns>only one nunummm
>>561154669literally unplayable
did this game ever get released?
I wish someone posted old webms of my game
how do i stop being so addicted to ai? i literally feel like i can't do anything anymore without it
its crazy just how much damagefygoonatard, zukjeet and joshua have done to /agdg/. i don't think there was any schizo as destructive as these 3can /agdg/ even recover from their bullshit?
>>561156230exercise, meditate, eat multivitamin pills and ancient chinese herbs. that's what i do anyway. currently munching on some "winter worm summer grass"
>>561156230You read books, unironically. Then you make lists after reading your book of stuff to do. Do those things, then wrack your brain for what you forgot.Read some more, then go outside for a few minutes to take a walk around the block.You do this to rewire your brain to avoud AI. I know it sounds annoying, I know it sounds like a waste of time, but it seriously will help.
yesterday's proggy:i improved the minigun
Me and my wife aren't having children on this Earth, we're just going to unapologetically indulge in the spoils of our Game Dev wealth. We know where our true home is.
>>561156982>Me and my wife aren't having children on this EarthThat's because your wife has a cock
>>561156925very nice. love the smoke that starts after a while.but (please don't hate me) when have some time for polish, consider making her move her legs/feet as she's turning.
>>561157282>consider making her move her legs/feet as she's turning.i tried doing that and it was clunky as fuck. it doesnt help that i suck at animating. it's on the maybe pile now. we'll see
>>561156925I love it. How did you model all this?
>>561156230learn
>>561157458thanks anon.slowly and painfullythe guy who helped me with tok has been texturing the enemies, but everything else (except the crates) is done by me.
>>561156476Hello Betz!
>>561156982I think it's funny how there's this segment of upper working class/lower middle class goobers who are self aware enough to recognize they can't give their kids a good life but need contrived justifications for not having them because they aren't self aware enough to acknowledge they're just too broke to afford them.
>>561157979Damn
If Claude/Gemini/Cursor have ever helped you at all developing your game then your game is no longer eligible for the Indie Game Awards. Congratulations.
>>561157220I would love my wife even if she had a cock. I am seriously in love with her. She is my co-creator. Her eyes are home. She is the only one who understands my existential state. She is my knowing partner in a hall of illusions and masks. I will always fall back into her arms.>>561158069I'm anti-natalist for spiritual reasons. Not socio-economic.
>>561158978What about programming?
>>561159056you're a gay ass nigga
>>561159074Programming is a medium that can achieved with human writers.
>asked the godot discord about the bug>they are aware of and are working on a fix>agdgfags were wrongretards. all of you.
>>561159181Actually, I'm not gay, because I am attracted to the feminine form and femininity.
Ok but can your game run a microservice with little gulp and webpack and Vite on a serverless docker spin?
>>561159252It can't though? Story writers cannot program
>>561143534There's a /v/3 discord?
>>561159543you act like a gay nigga so you're a gay nigga. your wife probably cheats on you
>>561158978i love the insane hypocrisy regarding that ai programming is a-ok but everything else isn't,t. actually a bigger artfag than programmer
>>561159690This is an English website, not Hindu. Please speak English.
>>561159743No one said anything about story writers, retard.If you write code for a living then you're a WRITER of code.Why do you think they would make an exception for generative AI being used for programming when they didn't make exception for anything else?
>>561160424>>561159958Because programming and art are fundamentally different things? It's like using a calculator vs using an autopen.
>>561160424>Why do you think they would make an exception for generative AI being used for programming when they didn't make exception for anything else?nta but the reason is because they can't see/hear it nor really tell if AI was used for code or not. nobody cares if a black box codes because at the end of the day to the normal person your code is effectively a black box to them anyway. I personally don't give a shit if people use AI as long as it's not ugly.
fuck it i'm making a simple game instead of my dream game
Congrats on SpaceMatra for Poke All Toads success. Fuck the haters.Dev, if you are reading this, dont come back to this shithole, this place is ridden of a bunch of no game loser devs sucking out the energy out of devs and wishing them the worst.Good luck to Boku fuck everyone else. After him there won't be any real devs left on this shithole.
>>561160789>start with a simple game>continue with a middle game>combine all of the experience and make your dream gamenow get working
>>561160935bokube will never release despite being 100% finished. he's too scared to release it. he knows nobody wants his game.
>>561160627Programming is art.>>561160705Exactly.
>>561160935This.But it makes sense.The devs busy making their game are not here spending their days shitposting, because they're busy making their game.
>>561159752Yes. https://discord.com/invite/hXMqEsWVBZ (pulled from their site)
>>561161209I've been ctrl+F "poke" and every ,ention is hate on him despite his success. This place isn't a community.
>>561161209when I'm waiting for shit to compile or convert I post here so I can talk mad shit about people without posting my game in turn tarnishing my reputation. also I like stealing peoples ideas sometimes. it's a win win
>>561160705Genuinely why do you insist on creating a false equivalency?It's like trying to say that math and English are the same subject
>>561161540What are you even talking about retard
>>561160935yeah you should go back to rddit where everything is le wholsesome and they give you reddiot gold for your gamedev skillz
Around 100 arguments about AI happen on agdg alone EACH DAY.About 700 arguments in the week around your bait.AI webm? Low effort social media repost? BOOM thread's done.Also, not only are you having to deal with every retard that has no game, but the entire backlog of faggots who asked a chatbot to do something for them and it made something better than they could because they're unskilled retards :)Take all the "thread success stories" you can think of in the past 10 years and divide it by the number of AI obsessed faggots in agdg who post constantly about AI (again, 100 arguments a day, 3000 a month) and there's your historical likelihood of "having a good thread."Blackpills, 2 weeks, Grok is the closest thing they've had to a gf, AND to top it all off: None of the people who claim that AI is going to take over ever seem to have used it to make a game. If you successfully win this "mediocrity lottery" by baiting the thread into arguing about AI you'll have to so it all over again the next thread>He thinks that we can just have a thread about gamedev in 2026HahahahahaF A G G O TAGGOT
>>561161959didn't read, this post uses AI
>>561162065You're absolutely right!
>>561161903No you guys are a bunch of faggots, i still remember the shit marmo and trainwiz got for finally releasing their games and they got shit on. No wonder trainwiz only posts on /v/ now.Now PokeDev finally releases his with great success and AGDG is hating on him too.
>>561162351>Now PokeDev finally releases his with great success and AGDG is hating on him too.It's called spiteful jealousy. Not sure why this surprises you. If you want praise this place is not for you. That's why I don't post my game here lmao. It's just nodevs crashing out 24/7 which I find amusing so that's why I am here.
>>561162594I have a term for them.There's nodevs, who want to dev but don't.Then there's NEGAdevs, who want nobody to dev at all
I wonder if you faggots are gonna shit on my boy too in 2 weeks
>>561161104those books are knuthsba-dum-tssss
>>561163039I can plague every /v/ thread he'll ever have by gathering up all the Twitter copypastas he's done. Anons don't get a pass for all the Twitterspeak.
>>561163039>Guns and Nunsonly one nun>play as Angelica Amadeuslowercase letter at the beginning of the sentence>at your heart's contentit should be to your heart's contentGuns and Nuns dev rightfully doesn't give a fuck because the less effort he puts in the more successful his game will be.
>>561163039I genuinely don't like that guy and his game looks like a shitty mobile game. I will 100% be laughing at his brown ass. If by chance he is successful I will take it as a great sign for my obviously superior game.
>>561162351>>561162594The great floppening of Marmoreal was the final blackpill for me.
I have no idea what the hell this attack should end with
>>561163748with a facial? they don't call it the money shot for nothing
>>561163039>the logo is just the title of the game with default windows font>hud is the first thing he game up with during development (with default fonts too)>only one nun>said nun only has like 2 gif reactions for the entire game>that poorly written description>spammed xitter daily with the same 3 clipsi think hes gmi
>>561142323Scaling properly requires some comprehension of the engineering. Almost everyone trying to do an MMO just does a socket connection and broadcast events to clients with no regard for scaling or real context other than a basic distance check at best.>>561142785This is the most retarded thing I have ever heard, guessing its bait
>>561162351I'm still impressed trainwiz actually pulled off multiplayer
>>561133360If you're using something like an ECS you might be able to serialize all of your entities into a binary or text format and save it as a file along side level props and stuff. I save the game by just dumping the world and reloading it. It can all end up looking like this if you wanted.
>>561160935You can get some good advice and positive reinforcement here so long as you don't let anybody know about your game and if you intend to publish. If you give any of that information away the crabs in the bucket will turn on you.
So what's the schizo's latest meltie about?
I use this thread as a venting device during my long day of learning and devving.
What's the /agdg/+ discord?I'm gathering friends for something ;3
>>561164986See >>561161242
>>561163039He has the audacity to try to leave the bucket, of course I will.
>>561165131That's /v3/, not agdg+, isn't it? Am I rarted?
>>561165136>but the crabs are cute
>>561163918>>hud is the first thing he game up with:DDDDDDD
There are good devs in here but they get overshadowed by the nodev retards.That's unfortunately the nature of 4chan and specifically /vg/. It only takes a handful of schizos to permanently fuck up a general.
>>561164425He hasn't yet
>continue my tower builder/simtower clone I abandoned years ago>actually feel motivated and inspired to work on it this time>check reddit's simtower sub>at least 3 similar projects going on, all looking better than mine
>>561164867Another successful dev so he has to change the definition of what he considers successful to be entirely arbitrary.
indies: "aaa is soulless"also indies: "how can i make the most marketable gamble slop game to land a hit to maximize profit?"
>>561165468There's a multiplayer version out, though?
>>561165569Everyone is shitting on AAA right now (deservedly) but Indie is going to be worse. The money funding those AAA studios have realized that Indie means a small team and a small budget. Spreading out risk across lots of little Indie studios is a better gamble overall. We're going to see a ton of "Indie" now smeared all over the walls.
>>561165215I don't know why don't you join and find out
>>561165682That's in beta according to his devblog
adjusted proportions, started unwrapping, blocking in texture, trying to get used to my 1-handed keyboard but it's really difficult
>>561165778So there's multiplayer
>>561165682Is multiplayer easier than I thought this whole time? Am I just being stupid?
>>561165842OKAY NOW WHAT
>>561165842>trying to get used to my 1-handed keyboardexplain this part further
>>561163039I was the anon who helped him figure out his gravity vector math, so I have some emotional stake in the game, but I don't think it'll be some massive breakout success like some anons think it's going to be. It'll be a respectable middling ~$100k lifetime revenue success though.t. King Krab
>>561162351They deserve it. -My- game releases and it flops and everyone shits on me when I suggest the market is changing. No of course it isn't changing -I- just made a BAD game. Sure. Sure. The market is fine, I just made a bad game. Then those guys release flops after years of being hug boxxed and they fuck off forever. Oho yeah. Yeah that's how it is. >>561165569Blame steam for that.
>>561166416>Then those guys release flopsDid they release flops or are you creating arbitrary definitions of words because nobody wants to be your friend?
>>561166012Multiplayer is quite easy if you build your game from the ground up around multiplayer, but retroactively adding multiplayer to a codebase that wasn't originally architected to be multiplayer is hell.

>>561169907where are all the agdg games with cute girls?
>>561170258you have to be likeable and I mean reddit likeable.
I think I'm just not smart enough for this shit. I can barely code, so the options for games I can realistically make on my own are extremely limited. I was thinking about making a point and click game, something that's basically just a glorified slideshow, but I have no idea how to add a gimmick that would make modern players actually interested in playing such a simple game. It's not like I don't have any ideas, I have plenty. The problem is finding an idea that's actually within my extremely limited skill level.Also the simpler my ideas get, the less interested in then I get. I don't really want to make a point and click game, but anything more complex isn't an achievable goal. I once tried to make a Vampire Survivors clone (which I also wasn't really interested in) and even that was too complicated for me. This fucking sucks.

Progress: the game now has a plot, theme, characters and multiple endings.Todo: improve aesthetics.
>>561170345What do you mean when you say you can barely code? I always wonder what people mean exactly when they say that. I can't imagine it meaning anything but coming up with proper code architecture. For loops and conditionals and you're basically set. Art is the biggest handicap in gamedev.

>>561173508I wouldn't put an AI disclaimer on Steam. Steam will shadow ban your game if you do.

You seriously think your game is important enough for people to want to decompile it?
>>561175774They've already practiced their game of the year acceptance speech dozens of times before ever downloading a game engine.

>>561176380You should make a codex first--I think this is the best approach for non-technical people. Table top games explain all of their rules, lore, characters, etc in a single book. That book becomes the bible for how that game works. People were able to make games based on D&D because D&D specifies in great detail how all game systems work.Spend some time making yourself a book that you find enjoyable to look at, and define your systems in there. If somebody non-technical brought me a codex like this and said "can you help me make this a game?" this signals to me a few things. 1.) you've put in a ton of effort and you actually care and have skin in the game 2.) my life is much easier because I can just take your system equations written in plain language and write them into code. That doesn't take much thinking if it's already declared.
>>561176620Yeah I know, I don’t use AI to help me with code for that exact reason. I just follow guides and hope I learn through osmosis along the way. It’s hasn’t worked yet.

>>561181135rumor has it that the developer is still on the run after what he did to that poor girl.

>>561181336Interesting but this seems like a silly reason to withdraw. Loads of indie developers have made games in AAA studios before making the switch to being independent and in this game (megabonk) he didn't even make a AAA game but made just some basic indie game under a different name.

>>561197847short sharp recoiling back from a hit. lots of games just use a material swap/flash(enemy turns white for the frame of the hit) though if you don't want to interrupt enemy animations, though you can blend them.
>>561198164JUAIN
hopefully this didn't get crushed when turning it into a 4mb webm.basically I have yugioh quick-effect type abilities in this game that allow you to do a bunch of stuff with your units if they're in the radius of your "commander" unit even during the enemy turn, but it costs a resource called "leadership stars" which is shown next to the commander.I implemented a couple movement related ones today and the webm is just showing off that you can chain them together to set up hit and run strategies with some setup. The language for the descriptions is kinda bad right now I need to make the syntax more consistent.
>>561198717Is this doable in Blender or would I have to use some Unity magic??
>>561181852Fixed an annoying bug that turned out to be from the shader. It's really minor but I'm elated that my shader is literally perfect now.
>>561202012I would use unity magic. I'd grab x bones in the rig in a script and rotate them fast a few degrees for a frame or 2.
>>561197847>>561202012The most common way to do it is to blend in just the relevant joints as part of a blend tree. Look at the "Hit" animations here https://quaternius.com/animviewer.html or here https://www.mixamo.com/#/?page=1&query=hit&type=Motion%2CMotionPack

>>561209582I would never mark my game as using AI. I mostly use it to upscale images for textures and to fix my fucked up math. I repeat I will NEVER disclose I use AI in my game because the tools I use should not matter. If I used Adobe Photoshit it should not HAVE to be disclosed.

It's uncomfortable, even with an anon account because all the posts are tied to an account.
>>561215746I found the root problem. The crowd validator only looked at the final frame, while the visible collisions happen transiently during regroup. The behavior also still had a post-move shove correction. I’ve removed that shove path, tightened the steering, and added peak-overlap telemetry so transient collisions fail the validator.

I was looking forward to a relaxing day working on UI, but I found a major refund-worthy physics bug and now I have to fix that first somehow.164 days left. I'm dreading having to apply for jobs. So what have you been doing in the past 5 years? Made video games? Didn't work out, huh? No, I'm afraid you're not qualified for the shelf stocking job. We just wanted to meet you in person, have a little laugh. Best of luck in your job search, though.

>>561224793That's why I'm dreading having to look for a job. It's more likely I'll be cleaning floors in a slaughterhouse than get any office work no matter how low level.I guess my game will just have to make it.

Anybody good at level design here?How do I learn to level design? I mean if there's a way to practice level design?For example, maybe download minecraft and play creative mode & build a nice looking environment?Or play Sims and build a nice house and fill it with nice furnitures?Anybody that's good with level design have any good ideas regarding this?
>>561225765"Level design" is a meaningless buzzword if you don't have a GAME with actual PLAY to design the levels around.
>>561225765level design is very specific to the rest of the game. good aesthetics and architecture is only part, but also having an intrinsic sense of how fast players can traverse through a space, how far they can jump, sight lines, the paths people take through each level, and combining it have a level that both looks good and plays great.>greyboxingrefers to blocking out a simple "grey box" version of the level to get the gameplay right, and doing the art after, but it can often lead to spaces that feel like abstract video game levels since they were designed without art in mind. it can still be a good technique if you are developing a sense for the gameplaystart taking a critical look at the levels in games you play, or try making some levels for old games with editor toolkits. see how small changes can really change both how a space feels and how it is to traverse
>need to use log10>log is natural logarithm though>no function for log10>look up why they chose to do it like this>"that's how they do it in python"I hate baby ducked developers!!!!
>>561226419I guess I'm more looking into the how to make a level look nice part.Let's say I have a blocked out levels, I often have no idea how to fill it with things to make it look nice.>try making some levels for old games with editor toolkitsAny good suggestion?
>>561225765If you're playing a platformer, you want platforms to be a distance that's almost as high as the player can jump - a bit lower than that.you're welcome. no need to thank me for my mastery of totally relevant level design information.
>>561226576>Any good suggestion?quake because trenchbroom is easy to use, or unreal if you like it. old fps games are great because they come with all the assets and gameplay and were built around creating and adding levels.
>>561226478what? just do log(x) / log(10)
>>561225010>I guess my game will just have to make it.You can always downscope and rely on short term gains to make sequel after sequel until one of those makes it
>mfw im looking up game dev tutorials and the boring faggot youtuber starts talkin about "you should start by making small games in pico-8"
>>561225765>How do I learn to level design? I mean if there's a way to practice level design?You make maps for popular games and try to improve it each time
I don't understand why someone would have a problem with making small games first. It doesn't mean make small games for 10 years, it means make small games for 6-12 months. It's like when you go to the gym. Obviously you don't start with 2 plates, but you also don't do wrist curls or close grip bench or Bulgarian split squats in your first month in. First master the basics, get a good sense of what everything's like and then go all in on whatever you want to do.
>>561228356likely they don't play small games.
>>561227242That's what I did, but it feels wrong since that's just mathematically incorrect, isn't it?
>>561228579oh wait a minute/log(10) is /ln(10) or /loge(10) not /log10(10)fuck I still hate this
>>561228579>that's just mathematically incorrect
>>561197875I am! I had a curator list for cunny games until recently too. Since it's dead and gone, I'll just go back to shilling games I like whenever I get the chance again.
Day 2 of trying to make my own basic ui system
>>561228579>>561228614at some point you're just better off asking the AI and have it explain your retardation to you
>>561228579>>561228614It's just highschool math, it was in the small reference notes they gave you during tests
Run into problem with windowsHow do you request window sprites the way, that it would make it easy to resize them and shit, without ruining borders aspect ratio(Like borders becoming thinner them you reduce width and shit)Pretty sure any dev should have run into shit like that
>>561215746The old guard left and nobody new came to replace them. There are no big games in development here currently, when we used to have 5-10...
Anybody started using AI to work yet?I'm trying to use Claude to vibe code my game.I will either have a game to sell 1 month later, or I will be stuck trying to debug the shit AI has shit out.
>>561229824I'm using claude to code my game. albeit I have 15 years of programming experience. I have a game that I could sell(for 5 bucks) after 1 month. I'll spend a bit longer on it though.
>>561229824>I will either have a game to sell 1 month laterSure thing. We can see all those cool games made by vibecoders.
>>561230030I've switched to solely using AI to make my game but for whom it may concern I don't use AI at all ;)
>>561132632I have surgery in my neck in 7 hours, if I don't make it (3% chance) my last word to /agdg/: Joey Fygoon.
>>561229472>window sprites??? make a table of active sprite HWNDs maybe?
>>561230030If anything, it's a improvement.I can't code systems for shit.Those game managers, inventory system, etc is always my kryptonite.I got bored developing those, and when it became too messy for even myself to understand, I drop the game project.Using AI maybe the only way to help me finish a game for real this time.
>>561228965>>561228963It's mathematically incorrect according to highschool math, where log always represents logx by default (and is 10 when unspecified) with ln being logeand it shows just how obtuse this is, when your solution to>why are we calling it logis to say>just divide it by 1, except because we fucked up the notation it's actually ln(x)/ln(10) = log10(x)
>>561229824vibe coding is dumb as shitusing an AI convo to generate code, that i understandbut letting AI literally do everything and not having any direct control on the code is a quick way to make a giant lump of what the fuck that feels like shit to play and doesn't make sense because it makes all sort of weird leaps and doesn't understand what you want because you weren't there to directly guide it
>>561230251you'll be fine
>>561230251I can't wait 7 hours, can you just try home surgery? thanks.
>>561229824AI is shown to increase the time it takes to complete a developer task, despite the developer believing the AI is making it faster.AI is a yesman. The purpose of a yesman is to stay hired by saying "yes" to everything and giving the appearance of competence while being completely incompetent.
>>561230676>AI is shown to increase the time it takes to complete a developer taskthis doesn't seem to be true anymore. when was this shown?
>>561230676The usefulness of AI is that it doesn't stop or get tired, even if it may take longer you can just instruct it do something and it may eventually fix something laborious, altough obviously a human with forethought will have better precision to do the task and may take less time but has to concentrate and spend that time on dull repetitive grind
Newfag here, I wanted to start doing effects and shaders in my game. I need to create like light rings that rise with an animation when the pg gets buffed or make items glowy and include a lighting shine effect behind them, where do I start? also wanted to make my bullets more laser /transparent like with a light around them.. are there free assets that I can use as a base? I don't know shit. I'm using Unity and I tried using the emission parameter but it doensn't really achieve what I want.
>>561230676Workshopping with AI is easily 100x faster than going through the natural rumination process which normally takes weeks. If you have no idea what you're doing the AI will mislead you and you end up with soup inside a bread basket but outside of youtube nothing has made learning more accessible. Of course you could just become slave to the algorithm and watch incel content and cats all day.
>>561230962>UnityJust google "how to make shader that does thing in shader graph". You'll get an idea where to start from there.
>>561230962>make items glowy and include a lighting shine effect behind themYou mean something like this?You don't even need shaders for this.Copy paste the object, scale it a little bigger, turn it into all white, then some of the art program allow you to blur the image. And then you have your glowy effect.For the lightning shine, just draw a ray of shine, put a few behind the object, rotate them during the game, and you got the lighting shine effects.
>>561230820In this day and age we don't even hire an infinitely smarter thing for free. That's right, we don't even want interns, because they'll fuck things up more than they help.So no fucking way am I letting a machine with the intelligence of a toddler touch my shit.>>561231026But my natural rumination process resulted in a game that people play and buy. The only anons I've seen put out games with AI are, like, that card battler dev that only used it for placeholder art.
>>561231871I'm not sharing my AI game because I don't want want it on record that it's AI kek. rest assured it's very good though.
>>561232061>I'm not sharing my AI game because I don't want want it on record that it's AI kek. rest assured it's very good though.

>>561238327If you don't mind using a simple round shine sprite as background instead of a outline, then you don't need to use a shader.It will look something like this.
I've been cracking really obvious satirical jokes but I'm starting to think most people here are too autistic to distinguish reality from parody
>>561238467You should. I'm considering delaying my game so I can join nextfest. but my game is a short arcade game(metal slug but worse). a demo might satiate... or be a quarter of my game and the full release feel like 'that's all?'

>>561242084>>561243303I agree that it's a bit soulless rn, but as I said the background is something I've still yet to decide on how to do, will probably need to blur it and tint it or something.
>>561243817Dude, the left looks like some amateur made it, and I would pay lesser money for the same game just because of that.The right looks more like a professional work.

It's 2026 is there a good comprehensive tutorial on how to dev an MMORPG from scratch yet?
>>561242747Emphasis on the latter. Everyone's takeaway after shipping their first game is how much time it takes to complete the project after standing up the prototype. i.e. the 90-90 rule:>The first 90% of the project accounts for the first 90% of the development time. The remaining 10% of the project accounts for the other 90% of the development time.
>>561244976an MMO is 5% game, 45% web services, 50% databases
>>561241639I forgot to mention, I'm porting RmlUi to Godot for the new UI as well, I decided to do it because for gamepad input it's more mature than Godot's UI + some advanced effects the UI needs such as animated styling.
>>561244976your best bet is to make something like minecraft where people can run it on their own servers and the content is randomly generated instead of made by hand

how can you know what's fun if you never have fun? i swear, 99% of desperate indie devs who try to make steam slop never played the slop games they try to copy.
>>561249425You need to play something a lot to understand it which runs counter to setting aside time for dev or other life obligations
>>561249425How did 80s-90s devs figure out what's fun if there were no video games before that time?
>>561249425you've just hit on the reason that most games fucking suck
>>561241639At first I thought "wow, great" and then I read the post and realized that it was a rework, not all just different UI menusFilling the screen from top-to-bottom with buttons like in the top-right case isn't always a good idea. You'd ideally want some breathing space, maybe between logo and buttons. I guess it's not easy to change that without a scroller though ...Eh, it's probably fine.I think the way it displays stats is overall clearer (having it be semi-transparent behind the stats feels like it diminishes the focus on the reward screen) ... Same for the difficulty icons, I like the black text over the white text and the clear difference between song name and creator on the right, as well as the position of options.The more I'm thinking about it, the more I'd say, right is better. It really did lose some soul but it's clear and professional and competent and has some neat extra graphical effects.Unless there are animations on the left side that outweigh the right side, in which case it's harder to say.If the right side had some way that it plays the image/video in the background only after hovering over it long enough that could bring back some of that lost soul.

>>561246967why are normalfags using 'slop' like its a good thing
>>561251660same reason you use the world "normalfags" when in reality it's usually trannies and commies who call others normies.
>>561252141>normieshello newffag
>>561251337also it's not my fault my PC is from 2016
>>561231871sit the fuck down AI is better than you we just don't use it because most people dislike it when AI is involved in a piece of work.
>>561251660Slop is a good thing.

9gag makes me realize that social media can still be funny if you don't have sjw moderators and no monetization options for users.
I am so, so sick of this nonsense
>>561252726what nonsense
what implications does this have on us gamedevs?https://x.com/PopBase/status/2036060477323641271
i'm going to have a good day today after all. and a good week, month, year, etc. if you are working on your game, i wish the same to you.
>>561252335My sloppa lunch.>>561227425I keep cutting day by day, but I already have little hope my game will make it so if I scope down too much I might as well save myself the effort and abandon it.
>>561252335but chili isnt unhealthy, how is it sloppa?sloppa is messy slop meals
i just imagined her sloppy ass
>>561253252Chill is originally just "leftover ingredients thrown into a pot" with enough seasoning to cover up any off flavors. It's only healthy if you drain the fat, which most people won't.
>>561240050>#1870 in top sellers (previous #347)>double digit players already>peaked on release (this is bad)proof that /v/ doesnt play games
>can finally yarrr poke all toads>game starts as a cute poke the toads>quickly turns into sacrificing your fairy friends as foodew
It's done. It nearly only took a whole weekend but, it's done. Just gotta fine-tune some parameters so it looks nicer and add AI, how long can that possibly take ahaha
>>561254047now make it so dark you can't see the animations and you have a perfect indie horror gameif the player can ever see too much, just add more fog
i think the main reason i don't want to draw is because drawing on a tablet fucking sucks and drawing on paper is fucking useless.programming feels more natural, because you just type in words and the keyboard is perfectly built for that. but interfacing drawing (and sculpting) with a computer just fucking sucks.
>>561254047what about the middle legs?
>>561254163Good horror never fully shows it monsters after all hahah>>561254261Oh yeah they're next. They're gonna be a lot simpler since they don't determine the orientation or anything
>>561254207There's basically no difference with a quality tablet
What games did you buy for research? I bought The Farmer was Replaced.
>>561254207I actually prefer drawing on a tabletnot having your hand getting in the way is nice
>>561254565Gnrop and FTL
>>561254565Gehenna
>>561254565>buying games?
I know this is a meme here but I really have an idea for the best MMORPG ever. I wrote it all across 4 books. I even cameu p with some quests and stuff.But due to its nature Ill never be able to develop it, its simply too big for a small team and MMOs need massive cash support and marketing that I simply dont have access too
>>561254565i stopped buyering games on the steam after gabencunt fucked me over
>>561255124my project failed when i tried to make a texture 3D model of a shovel. but i have many ideas.
>>561255124ok thanks for letting us know
>>561255149Same, but in my case the fucked regional pricings spilled over to other stores too.
>>561255626use your powers to make my dream a reality.
>>561255663focusing all my energy on giving nodevs testicular torsions
i've noticed the only thing i can control is having more skills to do something than yesterday. i can't control the ever-moving goalposts of what is enough and pays, i can't control if people like what i do. i can just control acquiring new abilities that expand what i'm able to produce.it's just hard to stay motivated when there's no promise of any other reward. you basically have to accept that you need a real job as long as it takes and that expanding your abilities is your only reward. if you can live with that gamedev is probably ok, if not then you'll constantly feel like quitting.so many things in life are a catch-up game. you can clearly see this with so many people saying you need 10 years experience before even getting an entry level job. and in 10 years you gonna need 20 years experience, because that is what you compete against and things become even more complicated.seriously, if you don't have this strong drive to acquire more creative skills to make stuff, then you are probably better off just doing store clerk work and playing vidya or other fun simple activities. you'll just live a life of complete desperation if you do it to chase success.

[GOOD NEWS] famous /agdg/ game panic floor has released and reached 5 reviews! it turns out demo day success does convert into steam success after all
why is it that especially noobs in art are so resistant to using references? and the more experienced an artist becomes, they start to use tons of references? what makes noobs hate using references?
>>561255904Poke All Toads really broke you, huh.
>>561256529I'm going to be completely honest with you anon, I genuinely don't even know what that game is or how it relates to panic floor
>>561246967This has more likes than all the social media posts about my game combined....
>>561256489It's pride and arrogance caused by ignorance. An "artist" is an identity, and new artfags really like the idea of embracing that identity that they have in their mind. New artists vastly overrate originality, far over technical quality. They think that artists need to be able to create something out of nothing, and that any references used will pollute their originality.
Added flinch animations via a blend layer.How would you make this feel better?
>>561256489Using references is really boring
>>561255806I've been saying this since forever. Every issue aggydaggies face can be roughly boiled down to a skill issue.
>>561256529It feels like every game release makes this thread go insane.
>>561255806>you are probably better off just doing store clerk workI agree but who'd hire me to be a store clerk? gamedev is the only way I was able to make money.
>>561256529>>561257860>decided to look up poke all toads>multiple years of development to only earn 21k>and people think this is mindbreaking anyone??? mcdonalds employees earn significantly more than this, how embarrassing

Senpai, how do you do layered sprites? I need some shit to be on top of some other shit but it shouldn't cover some in-between shit Now I'm starting from the torso, giving it a random z-index and working my way from there but I feel my cells growing new chromosomes at an alarming rate while doing it, also if I ever need a sprite to change its z-index I'm fucked
>>561257975Do you just do this every time? Why? Are you stupid?
>>561259850He's trying to justify his job at McDonalds.
Why did Poke All Toads dev make an art piece he wanted to make instead of spending time flipping burgers for my restaurant?
>>561259498Just slap a bunch of images on squares in 3d

>>561260380your game will earn you less than five cents an hour, but of course you won't come here to tell me I was right. you'll just slink away to your next "hobby"
>>561260891keep justifying your job at mcdonalds, bud nobody cares that you work there and are understaffed
>>561260891Actual hobbyless behavior
>>561197443its called going beast mode
Added fast travel to my game, but the engine itself is getting more bugs. It's a backup day at least.
>>561260891I'm going to broil you alive, crab
Neverdevs seething because PATdev released his game
I'm starting to realize that money, or rather, the pursuit of it, is all this poor motherfucker has.
>>561261348I have a different term for them. I call them Negadevs, in that they want nobody to make progress or release anything and instead spin their wheels.
if you dev to become a better dev you can only lose if you don't dev.
>>561259498>also if I ever need a sprite to change its z-index I'm fuckedwhy can't you just change Z-index programmatically on the fly?
>>561260457very zukjeetian post
>>561262118get back to work at your mcdonalds job, josh
>>561261473Notice how every time a game releases he's like>Oh you could have made 5% more money if you worked in this miserable shitty job that's so notoriously terrible it's become a meme about how bad it isIt's like he only thinks exclusively in terms of how much money he made, and ONLY how much money could be made, like he's the fucking dad from Cat's in the Cradle. Which makes me think this guy is either an actual shill for retail companies who wants human beings to not pursuit any sort of creative endeavor, or just actually retarded.
>>561262452I sing that song with my dad whenever we're reflecting on how busy we both are
you VILL flop and you VILL be happy
>>561262709You obsess over high scores and winning at life when you're not even on the list.
>>561262709you have made 0$ on your "game", josh.
>>561262709did better than my flop
Feels good to finally fix my drawing issues and then reach a new level in my 2d art.Chuds btfo.
>>561262452The biggest and most cancerous part of these threads now is just how utterly divorced they are not from real life but from actual game development and other game devs.PATDev is probably living up and happy as hell. Schizo's favorite gay crush trainwiz is usually busy posting about the various vacations he takes and his cats. I'm sure Marmo's probably watching a loli anime and having the time of his life.Meanwhile xhe seethes and pisses because these devs weren't mixing their starbucks drink.

My time and energy are limited, and to maintain a decent quality of life I need to make smart choices about how I use my time and energy. It's not a smart choice to be working for years for a 10% chance of earning burger flipper money.So why do I do this?
i love these threads, it's like an interesting voyage into the human psyche
gabencunt caused all of this btw
>i didn't fail because my food sucks, but because my restaurant didn't get enough exposure>the food>i don't need better skills, just more luck
>>561263321>It's not a smart choice to be working for years for a 10% chance of earning burger flipper money.I'd rather be happy doing what I love for less money than working in the food industry. You cannot be happy with anything because you only view life through the lens of monetary acquisition, so you cannot understand this.
>makes 1 million USD in your pathwhere is your 3D ART GOD now?
I won.
>>561263184>Has AI changed your workflow in any way?yes, I now despair about AI making any creative labor obsolete
>>561263537>I'd rather be happy doing what I love for less money than working in the food industry.You say less money which is technically true, but you don't realize how much less money. Would you rather work in the food industry or be a game developer while homeless under an overpass with no laptop or a phone? Because that's how much "less money" an average solo gamedev will earn compared to the average retail worker.

>>561254565SiniSistar
>>561263576i tried making a game like that and got a really hard depression because i never play or like games like that. it felt extremely forced and it was the worst thing i ever worked on in my life.
>>561263958Then why not just work part time my crab-dudr
>>561263958But none of these devs are homeless, that's very strange.Could it be that you're just fearmongering to try and get people to work dead-end jobs?
>agdg releases a game>nodev spend his weeks shitting on the gameand then you wonder why everyone leaves this shithole
>>561264023too bad, I love games like that
unless poke all toad is a turdie(i think xhe is latinx no?) he wont make enough to justify a 5years dev cycle his game has already failed to reach the top 400 games valve promotes every year celing so it will be buried in the algo, but sure keep worshipping gabencunt
everyday I wake up I'm thankful i'm not a loser moron with no friends like josh. his only reason for existence is to project his failures onto everyone else. it's sad really
>>561264198I haven't left
>>561264231see >>561262452
>>561264040>>561264123They're not homeless because they work part time or someone else is working a shitty job so they can get neetbuxx or an allowance from their parents.
>>561264209yeah i get it. but some people also like getting their dick sucked by young men, but i don't want to do it just cause someone likes it.
>>561264231He has a full time job and released the game while working said job. Gamedev is not his primary income.
>>561264231140+ reviews in a few days from launching is really good, the game will keep selling with more promotion and I can see it easily reaching up to 500+ reviews, you are just jealous
>>561264373but explain why this game made 1 million or more?
ai is short for artistic integrity, something you don't have if you need funding to hire real devs and artists.
>>561264458I think by the "400 games valve promotes" he means 1000+ reviews.
>>561264567>>561264567>>561264567
It is chilling how thoroughly I won.
>>561264407NOOOO HE CAN'T MAKE MONEY FROM HIS HOBBY. ACK! THIS IS UNFAIR!
