Idle games? Who's playing these things? People on disability?
>>562244094millions dollar idea: toyota islamic freedom fighter idle game with a skill tree
>>562244330
Update: Every unit has their own custom sprite(some have portraits). Implemented a new fatigue system. Implemented a new action points system. Implemented variable map + team size. Online play seems to finally be free of de-syncs(as far as i know).
>>562244330People with disabilities AKA gamercunts
>>562244094I was hoping this would've been the OP image
>>562244330>People on disability?There's more existential dread than ever before and while games might have once been escapism offering alternative avenues of mastery for many people it is now primarily a distraction and a time-waster. Hence why the most popular game mechanics are gambling, progression and co-op.
>>562244094So when do you think you will be able to get by without an art guy? Hunyan 3.1 is scary good
Idea guys are the new devchads thanks to vibecoding.Be afraid code monkeys.
>>562245249I'm so afraid.
>>562245249Good morning saar
@wastelandbites 'ow many wishlists do you 'ave? 'ow many months did you spend making the game?Please reply as if I were a girl.
WHAT THE FUCK WHAT IS AN APRIL 1ST UPDATE IN CLAUDE CODE?????? THAT SHIT SCARED THE CRAP OUT OF ME

>>562246963Its so over for art bros.
Just be a sociopath.
>>562245249I have so many ideashere's one, but be warned. It's pretty fucking wild. you are an adventurer and your dragon wife wants something to eat, but the stinky dungeon below is messing with her appetite, so you brave the dungeon below, hacking and slashing all the filthy, disgusting goblins (i hate goblins) and then afterwards you bake her a cake. you snuggle. the after credits is you holding her claw.
>>562244681cris FVARKING WON
>>562249660The idea of baking monsters into food isn't a bad one

The name of my game sounds suspiciously close to Undertale and it makes me want to kill myself
>>562244330demoralized people who are tired between work and house chores and just want to kill time while feeling a sense of progress without any effort. So, most of the population (thanks, jews!).>>562245249name 5 instances of idea guys making games using AI. Hell, I'll settle for one.
>>562252818>The name of my game sounds suspiciously close to Undertale and it makes me want to kill myself
>>562252818Undertail-dev is that you
Fuck I've just been paid. I can survive another month thank god
>>562252847What if you have fair-enough-skills at anything else except programming?
>>562246963What the fuck? I mean its not perfect but that's way better than the shit AI 3d models from a few months ago, what happened?
>>562252931Considerations: distance to target, has target, health, ammo, line of sight.
>>562246963can we see the topology?
>>562253227Tripo 3.1 looks to be even betterhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXXUH0_MFCw>>562253640It's not good. I haven't tried Tripo3d (which seems to be better) but these hunyan meshes could work as a base to start working. You can't ditch artists yet it seems
>>562254125UE5 topology type beat
>AI is actually going to replace vert monkeysHahaha!
>>562254275>>562254275It looks amazing if you don't zoom in.
>>562252818Maybe don't call it Bungerdale
>>562254361It probably will eventually but right now all these 3d ai models look like crap. Due to the sheer size of meshes I imagine it's a lot harder to train a proper model with good topology. There's not a massive library of GOOD meshes out there for some faggot to just scrape data from either. Sketchab might be the closest but there's an extreme amount of utter dog shit on that site too so you really need manual verification.
>>562254125God this is nightmare fuel
>internet gets flooded with shitty AI meshes before AI can scrape enough good mesehes and learn good topology.it's over before it began. AI bros, we have to take the L on this one.
>>562255025>>562254804As an artist I think these are ok, maybe not perfect but they could prove to be useful.
>>562255258>these are okyou must be a shitty artist lol
>>562255461I'm not really that good, but not that bad either.
>>562255609How did you do that hair?
>>562255650Very slowly
"Good" topology is highly overrated.
>>562255232Topology is just a measure of how good it conforms to the texture, normals distortion during animations, which is measurable. I'm sure they're training models already but just shitty doing this or they don't have the compute or some other shit or they're not even doing this yet but it's measurable so trainable.
>>562255609so how would you use the mesh? you're not thinking of retopocucking...
>>562255871that's almost perfect topogy in comparison to what AI gives.
>>562255818What's the method? Good lord I wish I could model like this
>>562255891As a base to sculpt. You can't avoid retolopology Or generating static meshes like couches, chairs and such.
>>562255871The topology on her butt mattered more
>>562255884I was told this 3 years ago. by the time AI can do it, we won't have computers anymore
>>562256019I wasn't used to so many strands either. It was painful but that was the job. placing each fucking clump and moving them around until they start to look good. Building the shape of the hair little by little.
>>562256064>You can't avoid retolopologyI avoid it every waking moment
>>562256249Well if you do low poly then that's easy.
>>562246963>>562244845okay I unironically tried it
>>562256224So do you start from planes or from a cube?
>>562256432Things are getting easier. Use grok to generate a reference, use the reference in hunyan
>>562256340I enjoy sculpting, I enjoy lowpoly. I don't enjoy retopo. quadremesh isn't enough. I'm waiting for AI to take my sculpt and turn it into a gen 7 model.
what do i do if my game plays much better if i zoom the camera way out, but it makes everything look ugly? am i a fraud if i hinder the gameplay just for looks? is 64x137 too big for a player character sprite did i f$#% up? can i just only allow the game to be played on a 4k monitor or is that illegal?
>>562256616I used 4 sided strands and placed them around. The meshes also use a custom normals. Maybe this will help understand that:https://www.youtube.com/shorts/DptPx8sY7Bg>>562256813I enjoy it too but it just takes too long to make
>>562257014Readjust your art?
>>562257197I meant more the actual hair in of itself rather than how it visually looks. Alpha-whatchamacallit they do with hair I can do later.Like, where do I even start? Do I create a separate object? Mold it out of the scalp?I'm confused
>>562257225but i spent so long on it
>>562257014surely there is a cleaner way to zoom out
>>562257353NTA but it's just a quad which you merge the tip then bend it on the edge a bit and then just manually or using modifiers or curves place across the head
finally solved some long standing issues now, model parsing format is almost fully stable, procedural vehicle animations almost stable
>>562257479tough shit should have thought of that before
>>562257353It's hard to explain, it was hard to do for me too. You start by checking what you want to make and planning how the hair flows then you start placing chunks. I don't think there's a shortcut. I made this 4 sided banana meshes and started to place them around the scalp
>>562257615So I extrude and combine?
>>562257767Again NTA you can extrude the entire mesh if you combine and are happy with the shape for extra depth in the end but just any 3D modelling hair tutorial will show you these steps
make hair from lowpoly banana. ez
>>562257982It's not though lol. At least not for me, maybe for you it is.
>>562257767>>562257860Just search for "3d modelling hair card"Picked this one at random https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzWgD3uNS1o

i talk to the ai to bounce ideas off of, but it wont stop telling me how great every idea of mine is.
>>562259182>Lol artists are fucked man. How that make you feel artoids?
>>562258307That's a jew.>>562259010When are you idiots going to discuss gamedev? Your shitty ai garbage is trash and you are worthless trash for not even using the trash!
>>562259202maybe they're good ideas?
>>562259273>maybe they're good ideas?
>>562259273i dont believe it
>>562258573TRVKE
ME IS STRENGTH.ME IS MIGHTME IS POWER.I BROIL CRABS
>>562259202Pitch this idea:>A game where you are overseeing an extermination camp for jews and other non-whites, which has in depth logistic problems that need to be solved cleverly by the player.
>>562259476Great but you can't monetize it
>>562258476so youre saying that women cannot be gamedevs? thats mysoginticis
>>562259250No really how does it make you feel? I want to know.
>>562259983>No really how does it make you feel? I want to know.
>>562258476Didn't help this bad mama jama avoid a failed kickstarter.
>>562259182>>562259250On one hand it will make it easier for me to make models. On the other my payment per hour will go down.I think the solution is to not depend on 3d models alone but to make games. Experiences. I can program somewhat anyway. So I'm not going to be fucked.
>>562259534Yeah you can. Just change the names a little.>Natsi overseer that kylls the chews and nyggars.There you go. These fucking idiot consumers are too stupid to get it.

>>562260171I'd back her but not that kickstarter.
>>562260171She came with feminist girl boss vibes. You need to cater to white knights, not women.
>>562259471sir please kindly stop mogging us
you use ai to make your gamei use ai to make a hot woman to advertise my gamewe are not the same
>>562244673Gamercunts will say this shit to virtue signal then drop a negative review on a game because it doesn't get consistent updates after a decade which means its "dead" and "the devs have abandoned it".
>>562260629She's so hot I wouldn't mind her bossing me around. Like imagine her yelling at me while I'm programming, then she sits on my lap and starts programming cus she thinks she can do it betterthen I get a bonerand I say>Index out of bounds exception: chances with this baddie are outside of the bounds of my rizzthen she LOLs in my face and spits on me and tells me to get back to work. That would be so funny haha.
>>562260698When gamers say they want shorter games, they're saying that they want 3-15 hour long games with minimal grinding for $4.99 instead of 50-90 hour long games that's just 90% grind for $69.99.
>>562260930>Average>15 to 50 hoursThis is demoralizing as shopping for dildos and seeing a 7 incher labeled as a beginner's.
>>562260630I don't think I did
>>562260930I just want a good 30 minutes. don't pad it out. give me all you have in 30 minutes and I give you $5 and promise i wont refund
>>562257479Nobody notices or cares about the effort you put in. What matters is results
>>562260846>then I get a boner
>>562257479I mean, maybe you could reduce?
Why do you enjoy making me lose?
>>562257479Get Spine or DragonBones, trace a character you like to use as base and draw on top the changes so it looks like your character, use AI if you must, learn to use Spine or DragonBones and animate it there. How? Use fucking reference. Or hire some artist for 10 usd/hour to do the design for a couple of hours.
>>562260171I felt bad when I saw that video
>>562262292I felt horny.
I don't like lolis anymore so I'm changing all of my characters to be mature women. Sorry, guys.

I just realized Ericschizo hasn't been here for a good while. I guess he couldn't match the power level of our current schizos and spammers.
>>562266708
>>562258113I hate it. I can't get it lower-poly and it won't do the grid thing.This looks like shit
>>562266708Eric denied his advances
I got my FPS script going well, but I'm trying to fine-tune the movement. So right now, when you sprint, you aren't focused forward, you can effectively sprint in any direction while moving the camera. Since sprint doesn't last very long in this prototype, and most likely never will, should I keep sprint focused forward, or let the camera be operable and move around while sprinting? I think of it like you're simply looking behind you or to the side, without having to introduce more input keys. What do you guys think? Pros, cons? And what about full stop when you let go of movement keys? Should there be slight momentum when let go?
>>562267119Yeah that method works best the more triangles you have. You have to move vertexes around manually if you want to use less triangles. Even then the hairs I made are about 2000 triangles each. The hairs took me about 6 hours each. Maybe I'm just slow. Texturing was rather easy
>>562266605kanna is based
>>562265750seethe
I sense estrogen
Added zombie boys and animations. Still getting the hang of it
Fygoon is based, I miss him
>>562269124Based on what?
>>562267850Well it shows because that hair looks incredible I’m just angry. What was the method you used to create a hair?
>>562269220based on god. we're all gods children, anon.

>>562268798
>>562269124>>562269434Nice try faggot but we hate you and your game is garbage and you are ugly and you are a jeet spreading hate on every other dev because your game is garbage.
>>562268798This game is cris coded
>>562269664>webig communist hive mind energy
>>562269263What kind of hair are you trying to model. You have a reference right? You need it to see how the hair flows, so that you can plan where to place the meshes
>>562269664CHADgoon is a national hero in here, thats non negotiable
>>562257014Gameplay always takes priority over art. Either put in a good linear filter or make the art fit.

>>562269804Reminder that the main villain of The Frydarian Tale is a communist dinosaur.
>>562269867I have a reference I drew, but if I had to choose a more detailed reference I'd say I'm sort of choosing how Ohma's hair was drawn in early Kengan.What was the method that you used to create your hairs? The same one I am?
>>562257014Or maybe a dynamic camera zoom like most modern 2D games implement, then you can have sections where the character looks good and sections where it is really far away.
>>562267119watch this, you cant get it to look low poly using curves that easilyI recommend you to model it by handhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGKYUWI44lQ

>>562270616
>>562269038Love this. I got into gamedev with the goal of meeting Eric someday. Its a silly thing. I like to daydream about releasing my game then going to games con. Im tending to my booth and minding my own business before I see a little shimmer in the corner in my eye>It must be nothing, I think to myself as I push thots away from grabbing my joystickAs the night goes on, those quick shimmers continue before turning to a bright light.A silhouette it looks to be approaching me. Is this it? Is this the end?I begin to sweat. Its not just regular sweat, no. Its a cold sweat. The exact opposite of the warm sweat I felt from the groupie thots body heat just moment before.And then he appearedLevi Jacket, cool expression. Everything I ever dreamed of. Eric Barone in the flesh.>Oh man. Did I get my booth number wrong? Please don't tell me this is where Haunted Chocolatier was supposed to be set up. FuckBefore I can fall into a full-blown panic, Eric reaches his hand out for a fist bump>Hey man! Glad I was able to catch you at your booth! Just wanted to say I really dig your game, it's actually inspired me to restart Chocolatier from the ground up. Not sure I could compete with you as it is.Wow! An actual compliment from my very own hero®Dreams really do come true. I shoo the thots away and we get to talking.Idle chit chat turns into game dev discussion, almost as if we were hosting our own /agdg/ in real life.Next thing I know, Eric is offering me to help on his game! We're officially a team. Years pass, and HC is released. After the release celebration I return home. And what is awaiting me on my porch? A small parcel.I open it up, and its a matching Levi Jacket. Im officially part of the club. But whats this? Something in the pocket?I reach inside to find a note>Thanks anon for helping with HC. You were my side kick at one point, but now I'm glad to call you a friend.Pic rel is me reading the note that Eric left for me
>>562270294uhm... basado.commies are in fact the enemies
>>562270294isnt there a schizo that used that dinosaur to post about that pony cartoon or final fantasy?
>>562270616This screenshots kills everything he believed in. His greatest inspiration sided with the furries.
>>562270319Is there a name for the method? I don't know. The hair you want is rather complex. Break it down first. Place first big clumps to get the shape and they add thinner strands to get the messiness. I would give it a try but I'm trying to finish a client's work.
can your ip get blacklisted by glowies from itch.io? what does it take to get your game indexed on there?
>>562271351im not a furry but star fox and falco are cool charactersalso, I would totally fuck krystal
>>562271316only crossover episode I can think of involving fygoon is the webm where the lizard is getting fucked in the ass by a black man
>>562271373I don't mean this 1-1, but like, just generally messy and unkempt
>>562271485>im not a furry>I would totally fuck krystal
>>562271485Fox was cool until the Wii U. This new one is full Zootopia.
>>562271717I would do it like this, fist the big green, blue and pink, then fill gaps with red thinner strands.
>>562271373how can i cut me 'air like that
How about I take my motherfucking goddamn covenant, chase you down in the middle of the fucking snow, bitch. You're running.
so who's gonna make an ai fygoon model?
>>562267516plz answr me
>>562271903God you're really skilled.I know I can resize the vertices to make the hair look different. How many "Strands" should I aim for each "Layer" of hair?Because this is too many, but I can reorganize if I must.
>>562271492no it wasnt goon it was a guy from /v/ a few years ago cant remember his name but his gimmick was posting that purple dinosaur

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWByIZiggNM/borderline psychopathic promotion strategybro farmed this twice, first clip he did the same thing when his game grossed 30k a day after launchthis is insanitysomething about this feels very wrong to mei'm not sure this is a reliable method for game promotionhe'll need to learn foundational marketing strategies or his next game will failvaguely similar to the boy who cried wolf, this will not work foreverdo not rely on this strategy
>>562276392Its looking better. Try adding another layer on top, I would try to avoid clipping between strands but if you are going to use a custom normal that might not be needed
>>562275052
>>562276837Fuck that amount would fix my whole life.
>>562276985When you say clipping you mean intersection?Yeah, that's a problem albeit a given. You're giving good advice, man.

>>562281327You've fixed some of the clipping but I still see it too bunched. Maybe this can help you visualize what I mean by adding another layer and aligning the segments. If you align them then you can easily avoid clipping

13.3 years left. Yeah, I did a review of my expenses in March and if I keep being in the red as much as I was in March, my savings are going to run out in August 2039. March was a fluke obviously, but the balance lifted my mood, before it dawned on me that in 14 years it'll be 2040. 14 years is from Skyrim to now!Yesterday I started on a big customization system and I don't want to jinx it but it's progressing really well. I have too much experience to get my hopes up so early, but I think it's not unrealistic I could get it in a shippable state in a week or so.

remember to use bump allocation if the objects are frequently allocated.

In the 2010s a lot of artists got super uppity about using references insisting it was cheating even though every notable artist who has ever lived used references. What was up with that?Anyway you should use references, especially for your animations.

Why is it that artists, writers, musicians, filmmakers are willing to speak up about the big companies devaluing their work, and try to fight their respective mediums being turned into disposable sludge, yet gamedevs fully embrace the enshittification of their industry?
If your game isn't a life service game with cattle passes your game is going to FLOP.

>trans day is on april fools dayheh, hehe
>>562308650>yet gamedevs fully embrace the enshittification of their industryonly neverdevs do that with demoralization purposes
Game idea:A cool summer day, you can feel the breeze in your hair. It's got to be like, the middle of July with weather like this. The sun is straight up beaming. Warm day. You can smell someone is grilling down the road, there's that propane smell. Summer is here. Hell yeah. The music is like, kind of an electric rock but it's lofi and pretty chill. The whole vibe is actually pretty calm despite what you might think. I'm thinking summer is here, and this one is gonna be a good one.
>>562308650>yet gamedevs fully embrace the enshittification of their industry?If you're an actual game developer this is a good thing. It increases the value of indie games due to cattle pass fatigue.>Why is it that artists, writers, musicians, filmmakers are willing to speak upBecause they don't have Steam and rely on pedowood jewish money. Their voices are meaningless.
>>562308650Game devs are battered housewives that defend a monopoly taking 30% of their income forever while giving them zero (0!) ZERO exposure. They're mindbroken slaves that think they're just temporarily embarrassed Szymanskis.Gamers are also mental children that don't care about art in any capacity so what we end up with is battered housewives working their fingers to the bone serving garbage to spoiled children while daddy sits his fat ass on the couch and does nothing.

>>562313589Errr, wrong! The only celebs I'll ever acknowledge are accomplished writers such as Plato or Machiavelli.
>>562313568Fuck you that made me laugh.
>>562313624he is specifically talking about it from the developer perspective lol listen to the talk.visibility problems aren't real your game is just shit. He says as much most poeple's issues are just because their game is shit, made using a shitty engine by someone who doesn't actually give a fuck about programming or game design, and looks like garbage (guessing all these apply to you)
>>562302260>>562302360I don't get this meme about bump allocators, at least not for games. Most game entities have individual lifetimes and aren't freed all in batches, but when the character/enemy/entity dies or is removed.You can put all of them into slotmaps/slabs with a free list and have basically free allocation and deallocation anyway.You mean just for temporary data for computations within a frame? Or you actually mean using a bump allocator for a level/room, never reuse any memory until the player changes level, and hope that he doesn't stay in the same room for too long?
>>562313883It's just some guy who had a revelation about memory allocation after being lied to to use malloc in the tutorials he followed. Yes if you're using it for individual objects a free list is better with pre allocated blocks and some sane limit which is O(1) but for SIMD or ECS they're not cache coherent. There's another technique I've read awhile ago which uses some bit flags to indicate where it should allocate near other blocks so it also has better alignment.
>>562313883Clearly you're a chump dev and your game doesn't have 100k dynamic objects at runtime. Go make your silly platformer or something.
>>562313879>projecting againi was going to actually link the talk i was referring to but it seems like you'd just ignore it anyway, so kys

Maybe, but it's industry standard>You get nothing, since they don't push your shitty showelwareLmao no.There is a limit to what they can push like a virtual display case, and products that sell or that become 'hot' get pushed.For 30% u get tons of stuff:- A place on the biggest and best digital vg marketplace on earth. You don't have to build a site, there is no sidestep "who the fuq is this guy selling this shit. can I trust him" - A newsfeed you can use to update players and wishlisters- All the monetary side of things are done by them, you don't need to deal with banks at all- Automatic dlc system- Integrated deal system that updates your price in the steam wishlist, and also sends wishlisted a mail- A forum for your game - A suggestion list that say whom from your friends already has or have wishlisted ur game. So a new player can ask for opinions from their friends, or know who can coop/pvp. - A controller support overlay, remote online and achiviments support- Auto patch upload that's pushed automatically - A gift system where some dudes can buy your game for other ppl- As a dev you can make deals with other devs and create a collection so you have a better discount-card system for those collectors typesAll of this is "nothing" tho.

>>562314775That has nothing to do with visibility. It's just not fun for the modern audience. Like shmups or traditional roguelikes.
>>562314562everyone has heard of this remotely into game and it did fine it's obviously a niche thing it has thousands of reviews on it and it's sequel. did exactly as good as it should havethis isn't a visibility problem>>562314643looks like it would give me a virus and telling me you made a game that is 10k hours doesn't sell it. I would rather have 10 good hours then 10k hours the dev hasn't even bothered to test themselvesthis is a game problem, it's also 120$ for the full game which is insane>>562314775this isn't a visibility problem no one wants to play these >>562314927close people are just bringing up stuff with thousands of reviews and good sales they would have preferred were more succesful it's not even just posting retarded jeet art>>562315185this has a thousand reviews being out less than a year in a niche genre , and it's not even done it's early access.

>>562316120Yeah ebay has 2.4 billion (billion with a B) active listings a year but no one ever has trouble getting visibility on there even for extremely niche products. Valve's recommendation system is just fucking garbage.
>>562316018>mizzypostingwtf
>>562316257zukjeet, steam didn't give it any visibility. read my fucking post you dravidian animal, it blew up OUTSIDE OF STEAM
>>562316351>2700 reviews>1700 reviews>600 reviews with mixed reviewsi barely even follow gaming and I heard about remothered being shit, never heard of the council though the reviews of it are fairly poor and it still sold decently? You guys understand having visibility issues would be barely getting any reviews right? 600 is in that territory but it has awful reviews. Where are these great games with sub 500 or sub 100 reviews or sub 10 even? >>562316620why does it matter where it blew up? the internet isn't just steam most things would blow up on other sites first
Be the change you desire. Don't upload to Steam. Simple as. Stop CRYING it solves and changes NOTHING.

Do people actually use Steam to search for games they might be interested in? My impression was that most people find games outside of Steam via social media or their ecelebs and only use Steam to buy them not browse through tons of shovelware.

>>562317241They used to. Getting your game on steam used to be an all but guaranteed ticket to success before the flood of sewage brought on by valve's lack of care made it impossible to find anything.Valve will NEVER get enough shit for that EVER. They LET their store front get filled with GARBAGE and SCAMS and at the same time they REFUSED to implement refunds and had to be dragged KICKING and SCREAMING to court over it.
>>562314327>>562315359let me indulge you in /agdg/ historyhttps://arch.b4k.dev/vg/search/text/in%20today%27s%20episode%20of%20indie%20games/200+ instances of games with less than 100 reviews
>>562317221People use it as a storefront because it's convenient, you don't need to use it but no one wants to use gog universe or that garbage web browser itchi.io installer thingNo one is making you pay them but people will also probably just not buy your shit if it's not on steam because it's not worth the hassle. You realize marketing budgets companies pay for advertising is not usually at the place people buy it?Valve can charge 30% because they think you will make more money paying them 30% if you can sell on steam, then if you couldn't sell on steam and didn't have to pay them 30%. They are correct the other options all suck.
>>562317241I would say 70% of games I've purchased in the last 4 years have been through searching through the Steam catalog. I think it's more common that you watch ecelebs that are into the game you play and then you might pick up a few titles through osmosis.
>>562317468dude I remember when everyone bitched about their greenlighting thing and how hard it was to get on steam, now you are just complaining it's too easy to get on steam. KWAB just make a good game faggot
>>562317375lmao samefag
>>562317580You don't get it every game but his should be gatekept from Steam because it's not fair, still hasn't come up with a quality low visibility game yet btw
>>562317580Greenlight was a non-existent barrier if you cheated the system and botted, that was the problem. Valve did not care and they let it happen.

>>562317492i looked at 4 and none of them looked good, I don't care about 200+ shit in the range of shitty-mediocre games that are ignored. I don't care a bout mediocre games they shouldn't exist. There are millions because of the whole "make small games" meme of just shovel ware bullshit that shouldn't exist. I asked for a GOOD game that should have caught on but didn't.

>>562317737so lower then cut to 15% then, if all you do is process the money
>>562316120Limited in a practical sense, u moron.When u search for an action roguelike steam will give you 300 pages of them. You will scroll at max three of those pages before fucking off.It's not steam duty to put "your" game to the top of a search, if nobody bought/wishlist it. That's the limitation of the system

>>562317961That's the point. If you are not hollow knight or stardew it makes no monetary sense to make your own site and deal with money handling.And, most importantly, it's a matter of trust. Everyone buys on steam, np. Itch it's well known to all indies but nobody buys there. What are your fucking chances to get the trust of your buyers on your shitty site?
so whats the reason why eldon betz goes into the zukjeet persona when we, yesdevs who have to pay 30% to gabencunt before company taxes, VAT and income taxes, complain about this unfair monopoly gabencunt has over our industry?like is the nodev really believing that we should be happy that gabencunt is buying yachts with our money?

the problem with Steam is not>visibilityor>discoverabilitythe problem is that there are so many amazing games, that merely good games are not good enough. your game is only in the top 10% in quality? double-digit reviews for you. you need to be top 5% to earn minimum wage for your time developing your game? don't like it? quit gamedev. it's a retarded jobby.

>>562315183>It's 30% too much? Maybe, but it's industry standardWell no, among major storefronts of independently published software (apple store, google store) the standard is 15% with only an increase to 30% after the product receives it's millionth dollar within a year.Unless you mean specifically lesser storefronts of non-independently published "AAA" games software (the consoles) in which case also no because Steam doesn't charge those guys 30%... assumedly because they want to entice AAA onto Steam so they undercut the console percentages.
>>562318840But games are getting worse every year not better. The biggest indie games from a decade ago were of significantly higher quality than today.
>>562318232Nice goal post move. you problem was>a monopoly taking 30% of their income forever while giving them zero (0!) ZERO exposureU get exposure if u deserve it. There are metrics to track it. If you search for a tag/genre even the shittiest game will be there. At page 500If u are dumb enough to put "souls" in your title, u deserve to be lost at the bottom of the barrel.

>>562313883For situations where you need to frequently make allocations each of unpredictable sizes, and then free those allocations as a unit.In my example, I am using bump allocation to build my sparse voxel oct tree. Instead of calling calloc each time, I use a revolving door staging buffer to source bump allocations from, and then crystallize the tree into a GPU packed format and then reset the tree bump arena once it is packed.
>>562319002wrong. your standards are rising. you are like a woman on dating apps who thinks only the top 5% of men are attractive.
>>562318232damn, I guess you should sell your game on ebay then, problem solved!

>>562318949>Unless you mean specifically lesser storefronts of non-independently published "AAA" games software (the consolesyou're forgetting that consoles offer a unified platform for developers, effectively neutralising any complaints about crashes and incompatability which pc games have. the 30% on consoles is to subsidize the hardware (a real world thing I might add) and make life easier for yourself as a dev
1/2>>562313883>>562314146I'm not knocking free lists and other allocation strategies but as >>562314146 mentioned I am actually doing things with SIMD and ECS. It serves me anytime I need contiguous memory. I'm not trying to force it everywhere like file i/o and hashmaps, but I do use the arenas pretty damn frequently.My arenas and arrays (just arenas with some differences) reserve contiguous virtual memory and then commit as the need arises. Its a pretty basic setup.https://codeberg.org/FroggyGreen/rooster/src/branch/trunk/src/data-structures/vmem.c>It's just some guy who had a revelation about memory allocation after being lied to to use malloc in the tutorials he followed.Malloc is just how I learned from books I read in high school. I got into a strong habit of using it for a while despite knowing about other things.>There's another technique I've read awhile ago which uses some bit flags to indicate where it should allocate near other blocks so it also has better alignment.That's interesting.>ou mean just for temporary data for computations within a frame? Or you actually mean using a bump allocator for a level/room, never reuse any memory until the player changes level, and hope that he doesn't stay in the same room for too long?I use them the most in my ECS, which is just sparse sets. Most of my arena uses are intended for things that are created at program start and destroyed at program end. I also have a main arena that I use in place of malloc in many places. I also use Vulkan buffers an arenas for my vertex buffer. index buffer and storage buffer.Look at this post https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/561759797/#561762564 . All the vertex data is stored in two offsets in a single vertex buffer despite different vertex strides for the two types of meshes, all the index data is stored at a single offset in an index buffer, and all the transform data is stored in a storage buffer at three offsets.
So this general is just for shitposting, there's no actual discussion about game development?

>>562318949It's a standard because it's been used fore more than 10y.But even all these ppl mad at steam, u probably didn't even publish a game, let alone a game that gets 100 or more reviews (and that's not even successful).U are whining beacuse u can't dev. And in a world where u would reach release it's most probable that a steam release would rack more money than a shitty proprietary site.U cry because ur pillow is too small to hide 10 million dollars, but in your bank account u have less than 200 bucks

>>562318840Being able to push anything at all is a feat in and of itself but that also massively favors slop from all the ambitious projects being cancelled before they're finished due to burnout or financial issues. If you don't think your game adds anything to the market then I'd question why you're making it in the first place, I could never imagine making a game that I myself would not like playing.Maybe you're learning but we don't pay people who are learning either, that model's been long gone so if you put yourself out there you better perform. Just like any competition with an open bracket you're being seeded against the best of the best when you're the worst because it's better for the industry if the spotlight is on them rather than some nobody no one cares about. That also means it's a big deal once you do make it out, people will take notice of you if you're able to make a name for yourself.

>>562319617You want steam to cut their profits margin by hallf? I know you're in a delusion phase but let me get as clear as I can - they won't do it. They are raking in the money and you have no leverage. If there was a competition, a competent competition, then you might actually see them offering better deals. Right now you have retarded timmy , non-existent itch.io market and hosting your own site that won't even show in the google search until you pay 1000$ to index it. You have nothing to offer, you have no real alternatives and you want them to just hand over half of their profit just because it'll make things better... for you. You might as well ask Jeff Bezos to cut his paycheck in half just to increase the income of his workers. We're not living in the fantasy world kid, now first think of the way to find a leverage against steam so they're actually motivated to lower their cut. Wishy washy ain't it.
>>562319469Froggy you're so lame you spend days on a simple arena allocator and you claim you "commit as the need arises" but you're just pagefaulting all over the place which just reduces performance, just be up front about the memory you need instead of doing shitty tricks like Go which when out of stack space copies it and allocates more stack lol, you're fighting yourself on the cache locality front. I don't get why you keep doing it like this either you just have some CLI game which either you're trying to learn because you sure as hell don't need this mental autistic masturbation you're forcing upon yourself to make a game. Sparse sets for ECS are also debunked and inherent bad design, again fighting yourself on two fronts. You have this mental autism which many technical inclined programmers have to make things more complicated for yourself than it has to be either to due peak dunning kruger or inexperience, just like make game.
>>562320114You know its true lil broHide behind your gay maymays, we know Tim is your dad

>>562319503i was using it to post progress a few days ago but i finished my game. i can't say i recommend it. there's very little enthusiasm for progress posts. only bait gets (You)s.
>>562320239there's "no leverage" because of retards like you who are either retarded gamers who have zero comprehension of what gamedev is like, or worse, you're a dev who lets valve walk all over them willingly. curiously you also don't mention GOG which has a lot of the same features as steam and isn't as shit as EGS.musicians are more outspoken against spotify for example, and frequently encourage their fans to support them outside of spotify. and they also start coordinated movements to raise awareness over how spotify is damaging their creative careers where actually big musicians join in to help spread awareness. gamedevs, for the most part, don't do that for some reason and just accept shit the way it is. that's actually what the conversation started with
>>562319617>at least lower the cut down to 15%They already spend 50-75% of their earnings on operating expenses annually
>>562320239>non-existent itch.io market and hosting your own site that won't even show in the google searchno one is searching steam for new games in current year. you literally have a better chance of that happening on itch than steam.but realistically the storefront doesnt matter, you get your game played in a youtube video and the people who want it find the store it's on. that's all there is to it.
>>562320591>GOG which has a lot of the same features as steamI had to put it out of my autostart because it would crash and bug out constantly

>>562308675>>562309887>cattle passTop KEK. I might steal this.
>>562320591you see, now you're talking with a little sense - let's have an union of developers that have their demands in a written form, send to Steam and convince gaben to give them better treatment or they won't publish on his storefront. Of course you need fans of your work that will also support you and that means you need to be an established developer first and work with other established developers too. Still, I think there's a disproportionate difference in damaging costs for spotify artists too, isn't that they earn like 8 bucks for 1 million of their tracks listened? Imagine you sold 1 million copies of your game on steam and you got 8 bucks. Spotify is super shitty, steam is not.
>>562320239This.
>>562320903Okay then, post a fact
Game Development is a Master Profession.
someone tell me to fuck off and get back to work.
>>562321110lol sure thing
2/2>>562319469Another way I use arenas is for things whose lifetime is limited. People say everything in an arena must have the same lifetime but that isn't true. If you allocate and store the offset you can always reset the arena to that offset. So a typical usage would be allocating something that only lives in the scope of a function.Also I haven't found a need to use a free list with my entities (yet). I have an array of components and I only fill out as much of the array as I need. As the array grows more virtual memory is committed. I can probably do some optimizations but I don't want to start profiling until I have actual gameplay lol.>>562320303>Froggy you're so lame you spend days on a simple arena allocatorDays? I remember it being easy to set up. Its not very complicated, and I never intended it to be.>you're just pagefaulting all over the placeIsn't a pagefault on the order of microseconds? I don't see how this will be a bottleneck with the way that I'm using it. A page is about ~4 kb so I can't think of any situations where I'd be adding so many components at once that multiple pagefaults will happen (after the initial startup). >Sparse sets for ECS are also debunked and inherent bad design, again fighting yourself on two fronts.How so? Do you have any articles on this or videos. Since it has been debunked I'd like to learn more.>You have this mental autism which many technical inclined programmers have to make things more complicated for yourself than it has to be either to due peak dunning kruger or inexperience, just like make game.I just like to implement things that I find interesting. Don't see the problem with that. But yeah there are cases where I get a bit lost in the sauce.
>>562321137Unions are cancer in every industry that isn't a cornerstone to a country's economy
>>562320239>You want steam to cut their profits margin by hallf?They make way way WAY more from AAA games than indie games and AAA devsDO |NOT |GET | CHARGED |30% |
>>562321357Fuck off and get back to work
>>562321370I'm not Christian. I just affirmed Master Morality.I don't agree with the Christian virtues of meekness and submission.
>>562321137>Imagine you sold 1 million copies of your game on steam and you got 8 buckssteam really is not that much better, sure it's not this extreme, but they still eat 50% of your income, because the 30% they take from you does not include the 20% that goes into VAT.>Of course you need fans of your work that will also support you and that means you need to be an established developer first and work with other established developers too.a big problem is that a lot of gamers are just rabid steam defenders, and gaben cock suckers. like, a lot of them even deny that literally gabe himself personally wanted to push paid mods on steam with bethesda, something that gamers unanimously hate, for example. this is what i imagine scares away established devs from this, because the reputationa risks for smaller ones are too severe, and obviously nobody cares for AAA. how do you suggest combating that?
I hate the police
>>562321017>They also have around 350 people working on all of their gamesyou can definitely tellyou're also forgetting that steam itself isn't their only revenue source.they also have dota 2, cs2 and tf2 all combined together bringing in billions every year
>>562321486thank you
>>562321429That's the funniest partValvehumpers always say 30% is the industry standard when 30% is not even the standard on steam, it only applies to small developers.
>>562319924Yes it's better. Arrange it better at the top where it's still intersecting or you can also add more layers to cover that part.Something to consider is to use 4 sided strands, it's easier to fill the gaps
>>562321429this as well, it's insane how literally nobody ever brings up how the steam cut DROPS the more you earn, down to 20% if you make 50 millionand that's just what valve admitsyou can bet that they have backroom deals with AAAs to lower their cut to 15 or even 10%
You no devs have no idea how fucked you are
>>562321381The issue derives from that when it's sparse you either need some look up (hash) table to index into it and full fat array will always beat it, it also complicates ECS systems for no reason even though the design might be simpler to implement at first. Popular ECS framework authors like EnTT go into some more details about this but I don't have a link at a moment's notice right now.
>>562321137>Imagine you sold 1 million copies of your game on steam and you got 8 bucks.ridiculously skewed comparison to funhouse mirror steam..... spotify is distributing AD REVENUE of course it's tiny.the apt comparison of the largest player in direct sales for independent releases would be steam to bandcamp.......whose fees are..... oh look it's that number 15% again.
>>562318814Tranny betz this is a thread for gamedevs, we are a right to shit on gabencunt. Nodevs like you shouldn't even be here. DEATH TO GABENCUNTDEATH TO STEAM
>>562321370my parents are atheist but I've been indoctrinated into christian virtues. I think those really are virtues and the opposite are evil.
>>562321819>50 millionfrom what i've read there's some ridiculously large number like that for revenue off of 30% independents that triggers them to lower the rate.with AAA they have a negotiated lower rate to start with, no revenue threshold.
>>562321678Yeah and they're continuously updating the games that are for the most part free to play while having some of the best server infrastructure in the industry and they finance their esports scenes with most of those billions.>>562321819>you can bet that they have backroom deals with AAAs to lower their cut to 15 or even 10%Not really, there's a reason every AAA has tried to make their own storefront but only Blizzard succeeded where the others failed because they realize that people want to use it as a community platform and as company newsletter more than anything else. I also happen to know a retired producer/AAA studio-head so they would know and the backroom deals do not exist.
The irony of no dev seethers posting here instead of doing their dev workLike lock in lil broGet those 2 sales on itch bro I believe in you
>>562321407so call it differently, call it "dev holdings" or "friends with benefits", the thing is you mean jakc shit when alone and you need a crowd of devs to back you up. Again, Jeff Bezos himseslf said he hires people of different racial groups to prevent them from unionizing. When a top dog is stopping you from unionizing you know you should unionize. "Unions are bad" is the biggest psy-op done to the US by capitalists and you're just another zombie just repeating that mantra. >m-muh communism>m-muh mafiaUnionize or lick that shoe dumbass>>562321429Sorry baby, AAA actually can get better deals, like 25% or 20% if they have big sales. You see, it's the other way around, when you're a big publisher you CAN enforce your rules or get better deals, but when you're a lil dude with a wimpy indie game and nobody to back you up you pay 30%. See the pattern yet?>>562321528Steam is good for players, it's a buyers market. What, you wanna do a counter steam psy-op? You kinda have it there with steam saying they have licences that can be revoked. You have to convince gamers it infringes their rights. It's a fat one though.>>562321982what do you want from me, it's the other anon talking about spotify. I don't use it, I have youtube and ytd downloader.>>562321995rent free baby, I'm not betz but keep guessing.
>>562321798I can try
its not just the awful 30% btw, its also about the fact that steam's "algorithm" buries games that do not fit a specific criteria at launch, good games like fear&hunger were buried by gabencunt for over a year until youtubers discovered the game on the rpgmaker forums and posted it on youtubegabencunt literally does nothing for us and yet takes almost half our income, tf
>>562319627No it doesn't kek
>>562244094>>562244330this is a melvor idle clone, which was very big, basically osrs but idle. there's a tons of them already and they are all fairly successful, vibe coded or not. the idle/incremental genre is now full of vibe coded tho
>>562321370It's ironic because christianity was literally built by greek/roman authors, with the help of the jew saul of tarsus ofc
>>562322350>Yeah and they're continuously updating the games that are for the most part free to play while having some of the best server infrastructure in the industry and they finance their esports scenes with most of those billions.okay great. they're welcome to take out the money to finance all that shit out of the revenue from those games and the steam deck revenue, not from my fucking game.
My 30% makes no difference to Valve, but it can decide whether I have a home tomorrow or not, and yet they take it anyway. Therefore Valve is evil.

>>562322407>Unionize or lick that shoe dumbassI'm from Sweden, possibly the most unionized country on earth and compared to 20 years ago, market conditions have rendered unions both toothless and actively harmful in most cases. The Unions are definitely not on the side of the workers and they only exist to employ workers who are too useless and incompetent to do their actual day-to-day job. The only thing you can trust a Union to do is prevent someone from receiving fair compensation in the event of a dispute and to prevent a company from getting interns or part time laborers.

>>562322980again, you can't fight corporation alone. Unionize or find another leverage. Complaining about it on a basketweaving forum won't do jack shit. >>562323191unironicaly yes, that's the goal of capitalism and Steam is based in US. Go to GOG, I heard Poles are pretty big socialists.>>562323073Of course anything that stays too long gets corrupted, and Sweden has the biggest woke cancer in the whole EU, but we're just about to start an union, uncorrupted, fresh and ready to bash the heads. I'm guessing the unions at some point are infiltrated by the very people the union is trying to fight and that's when the shit gets hard. Good thing we're devs and we're fighting for our causes, not Steam!

>>562323549>Good thing we're devsWho do you think are going to represent the devs in these unions? Some commiewriter from Finland? All the big AAA are going to send out their union reps (those too useless to work in HR) whose only concerns are social issues and being in control of the office thermostat. And the rest of them? Crabs, crabs all of them, Timmy flies you out on a conference all expenses paid for ofc to host a little talk, just a little light indoctrination no harm done. They want you to feel like they're on your side, that they're your friend and you know there's just some realities you have to live with. 5 years down the line when someone's a little too cushy you can bet your ass that the only concern of a game developers union is making sure that no one else are able to become one.
>>562323549>Unionize or find another leverage. you can't because of your own mindset>Complaining about it on a basketweaving forum won't do jack shit.in order to deal with a problem you have to actually bring up the fucking problem and talk about it in the first place. and yet for some reason any time someone complains about valve screwing over indie devs on the internet you have actual paid shills drowning out the conversation and people like you who say "bro stop talking about it, it won't change anything"even though just simply drumming up enough noise about it could be enough, as valve is very sensitive about their PR and image (TF2fags managed to give back voice chat to the free players in TF2 simply by approaching valve with a petition and starting up drama on the net about it)
>>562321924I don't understand how it complicates things, I find it rather simple. I don't see how a fat array could be better if the data is sufficiently sparse. It seems like a waste of memory. I don't think that's ALWAYS a big deal, I play a little fast and loose with memory myself, but if I have a bunch of entities and several components each that are associated with ~10% of all entities it seems like you are going to have a real problem with memory ballooning. But more importantly you are going to have to loop over a lot of dead components. That is bad for the cache. If there are few components and a small amount of entities, sure I could see that. I'm not convinced it makes a big difference but I can follow the logic there. And if you have a component that all or most entities have, like a label, sure once again it makes perfect sense to me. I don't believe the claims you are making are outright lies but I'm not going to believe you easily on this. What I do know is that sparse set insertion and deletion is cheap, and that iteration is better than a fat array. So I would need to be convinced that the insertion and deletion creates some kind of bottleneck compared to a normal array.
>>562314297oh we talk about transitioning alright
