What should be biggest/smallest?
What's stopping you from being successful?
>>564230260boooba
Anchor Post
>>564230260watch a tutorial instead of bashing your head nonstopget better at modelling first then start doing abstraction (low poly) if thats what you're doing.
>>564230359Because I'm a failure. Always have been, always will be.
I'm an idiot
>>564230104alright fellow gamedevs and eric schizo/zukjeet, how do we solve the gabencunt problem once and for all? 30% is too much
Done with Steam. My game will be GoG exclusive.
>>564230497its embarrassing how fucking shit Deadlock is. fuck valve
>>564230608They have infinite money they can keep it going forever and change up the gameplay direction to whatever they like.
>>564230260Stop being retarded
>>564230104>Take a look at AGDG after abandoning it for 10 years>It's still just rotate and gogem being autistic and not making games
where are da loligaems???
>>564230934that's not how multiplayer games work but I could see nu-valve being that retarded yeah
>>564231108What I'm making zim have you tried the latest build it's becoming amazing
>>564230412What's wrong with it this time
I even devved several hours even on the Holliday today
>>564231341Just hit ctrl+p and move on. You are not going to learn anything unless you actually try working with it.
>>564231429pic or it didn't happen
>>564231452Just this morning I had no idea how to even mirror UVs.I think I'm learning.
>>564231341look at professional 3D models and look how different they are to yours.That mesh is not clean at all.Even if you suck at unwrapping those vertices shouldnt look like that.pic rel is for my basemodel. Its not the best but see how almost clean the vertices are.
>>564230934They have the money and the time but they're lazy as fuck and they'll get bored of Deadlock and abandon it like all their other games. Shit they can't even release the MVM update for TF2 that was supposed to come out in August of last year. Fuck man when an indie dev promises a major update then goes radio silent after missing the deadline they get flayed but when valve does it its okay lol.
>>564231940hope you get doxxed pedo
>>564231940You are trying way too hard to flex and you are roughly the same skill level he is.
>>564231565
>>564231940How did you unwrap the fingers?
>>564232126did you miss the part where he said its not the best
>>564232198>translation: its shit
>>564232240why did you say that hes flexing when he said its shit in the first place? this place really is full of retards
>look at professional 3D models and look how different they are to yours
>>564231940This looks almost the exact same
>>564232182i just traced it underneaththen did the front like how you would unwrap a cube.>>564232465looking at other people's works and how they UV unwrap and make models is how you get good tho??????????
Can I make a game if I can omly schedule an hour per day for dev?
>>564232668>yours is shit>hey look at mine its also shit, heh do better
>>564232668Odd. I tried something similar at first and ended up with this fucking abomination. It got more readable when I separated the fingers up
>>564232878I think there should be a rule that you cannot in good faith insult someone's work here unless you can do better
do you realize AI can generate 3D models, and if they can't do it well they will sooner or later anyway.Technical skills dont matter anymore. It's all about ideas.
>>564233047Luddies ain't gonna like this
...MAYBE I should think of a better color scheme than "Brown and green."
>>564232668So what part should be largest?
>>564232126>>564232240lets see your work then
>>564233047>do you realize AI can generate 3D models, and if they can't do it well they will sooner or later anyway.>Technical skills dont matter anymore. It's all about ideas.
so what are you guys doing while AI is coding or making assets?
i spent like 2 days figuring out how to make my own lorasoon i will have a game soon...soon... soon...
>>564233429Your UV space is a ressource.Give the most space, to the biggest, most visible and important things like:>face>torso>etc.The more space you assign, the more details you can put on those parts.Now go forth and build your überhumans.
>>564233972im playing pragmata so i can be with my ai daughter so i can use ai to kill bad ai.
>>564233972Start writing my next set of prompts
>>564233047This is true but copers haven't accepted it yet. Idea guys were mocked but they won in the end.You HAVE been practicing your ideas right?
went ten days with no internet connection and no ai and still managed to make great proggy. aitards owned
>>564234348>This is true but copers haven't accepted it yet. >Idea guys were mocked but they won in the end.>You HAVE been practicing your ideas right?
>>564234034The whole character is that it's a character who's inherently "Chunni" trying to pretend he's "Dark and realistic."Not in a comedic way, but in a "Severe self-hatred" way.>I couldn't be a good enough warrior of a great bloodline>Maybe I'll be better as a nobody who gets into barfights while holding back
>>564232937No need to overcomplicate it.The arms and legs are just cylinders.The fingers are just cubes but more defined.Then the UV cuts just the ones separating them so that they actually still look like a "cylinder" and a "cube" even when they're joint together.>>564233429i dont get this question. Are you trying to make PS1 models?
>>564233047>>564233186>>564234348still no AI progressstill no AI game
>>564234596More PS2 to be honest.
>>564234348We still use AI to improve our ideas but every idea must first come from heart mind and spirit.
>>564234768ps2 looked like dogshit honestly the "ps2" style devs are chasing is actually nintendo wii
>>564234821wii games looked much worse than ps2 thoughever
>>564234821PS2 looked fucking amazing
>>564234895persona 4 doesnt count
>>564234631bing rocky idle
>>564235021>lists completely average looking ps2 gameOH but it takes place in Japan I see
>>564235106its by far the best looking ps2 game thats not a car sim
>>564234884>thoughever
>>564235021What is SOTCWhat is ICOWhat is DMCWhat is MGS2What is RE4What is SH2 and 3 and 4What is OkamiThe list goes on and on
>>564234768Requires a multiple skillsets texture painting, knowing where to place vertices for good deformation, and UV mapping/Texel DensityThe only people that comes into mind is kannadev when making those kinds of models here. Maybe osur too but he barely posts here now.Try learning the basics first anon. You'll get better overtime that you would be making low poly in just under an hour or two.
>>564235159bro you are smoking toilet crack
agreed with above, personer was where its atanyway so gamedev
>>564235274Kannadev is still PS1.To be perfectly honest my "Minimum" goal is Labyrinth of the Demon King. Just something really messy and dirty looking
>>564235251What is SOTC>runs like dogshit 25 fps ahh What is ICO>runs like dogshitWhat is DMC>nobody has ever said i play dmc for the graphicsWhat is MGS2>xbox has better versionWhat is RE4>gamecube/wii better versionWhat is SH2 and 3 and 4>nobody has ever said i play silent hill for the graphicsWhat is Okami>wii version is better
>>564235592top notch idea pun intended. Have you backtested your ideas in claude yet?
>>564235643>Outright lyingC'mon now
wow feels weird that I have absolutely no competition whatsoever
>>564235705What the fuck are you talking about
>>564235809confirmed for an emulator baby i played that shit on real hardware and the xbox and gamecube would regularly make the ps2 it's bitch
>>564236030you don't backtest?
I'm starting to think the real difference between the NGMIgger flopdev and the GMI TRVEdev is whether you owned a PS2 and played homosexual Japanese moviegames, or if you owned a PC and played heterosexual flash games and MMOs.
>>564236057>consolefagPC niggas always been on TOP
>>564236057Never used an emulator before.
>>564235643>nobody has ever said i play silent hill for the graphicsSilent Hill 3 had bleeding edge graphics in 2003. That's like the number one thing I remember it being praised for. The character models are still impressive.
>>564235096>talks about someone else's game>2.5 years in development>ghosted by the artist after 4 months>has an actual workflow of AI usage, unlike the AItard cultist that I'm replying>committed to NOT create AI-slopNONONONO HAHAHAHA
>>564236425nobody was talking about silent hill in 2003 this is youtuber revisionism why do you think the game cost so much now? it was low print because it wasnt popular
>>564236643so its using AI art
>>564236741>so its using AI art
>>564236643the machine made art looks fine but the game is bad inherently because it's an idle game. he spent 2.5 years making an idle game and honestly I think if I actually tried I could make the same idle game in 2 weeks maybe a month with AI.
>>564236738>It doesn't count because it didn't sell well :|
Eh, not bad for a first pass given my limited experience, but not good either. Oh well. Just gotta keep at it. Look at some refs, maybe add some IRL photo textures if I can.
>>564237372Niiice
>>564236353TRVKE but also boshart the troondit
>>564236353americans owned both paco
>>564236847he literally lied about it being 3 years, what happened is that he made the game in 1 month then received a cease and desist from jagex because he was copying runescape 1:1 using their assets so he took 3 years to rename stuff and make AI art
>>564236353I did both
I keep having cool dreams where I'm playing a really innovative games that I could use for inspiration for my own games but then I can never remember any of the details when I wake up.
>>564237372mask looks good. phototextures are good(make sure no hard shadows on them)

Don't wanna flop?Just make slop.
>>564238942>Don't wanna flop?>Just make slop.
>>564237965At some point I had a choice between a PS2 and a Gamecube, and I chose the Gamecube. I remember Tales of Symphonia and the two Fire Emblems with Ike rather fondly. Did any other tactics curse devs suffer from this same upbringing?
>>564238658>reviewsnigga is stuck in 2021, tell me about peak CCU and # in top selling daily (if below top 200 its a flop)
> store page says it's a roguelike but it's a lie, as it's not turn-basedhe's coming for your game
>>564238189>>564237760My sister is the one who helps me do this because she's an actual professional artist-animator with a bachelors degree who's actually won awards at festivals for her animation work.I wouldn't be able to do this without her guidance.
>>564238942Based and true>>564239302cring
>>564239467Also my father is an artist who has a similar style to Bill Plympton I have a habit of just sitting down with them and asking what I can do better
>>564239467oh she must have done your demo day capsule. it's very animator looking
>Bill Plympton mentionedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVfKyWmrQZQ
How come gabecunt isn't disclosing AI use in coding Deadlock? We know they are using it.
More research done and it feels like 3 of the negative reviews are all by the same person. Wew someone must really hate BiteMe, probably a ledditor. I desire to see MMO98 reach 1000 reviews just to see the salt. I would not be surprised if it is the same guy who is cloning their game and calling it ScaMMO (get it, scam). If this happens to your game is that a good sign for it's financial future?
>>564240417She did in like 10 minutes.She's actually won awards for her work and tables at big conventions.I'm very happy to be her lil bro
>>564240976Check out the topology on some of the deadlock characters
>>564241154I don't speak blender, tell me what am looking at
>>564241154>triangulate
>>564240976at this point everything you interact with on the internet uses AI to an extent. It's time to embrace the future or be left in the dust.
>>564241056Damn. Are reddit schizos worse than 4chan?
>>564241567Tell that to gabecunt, he goes around saying AI is a must while forcing us small indies to humiliate ourselves with the AI disclosure
>>564241216Anon seems to be implying the model was AI generated because the topology is horrible but its more likely they just lazily decimated a sculpt and called it a day.
Why aren't you proudly bragging about all of your AI usage on your Steam page? What are you some kind of luddite?
>>564241672and that has to do with ai coding ... how exactly?
>>564241154What is this game even about
>>564241786I found a real regression in the helper script itself: my last patch mangled the function boundaries, so the script stopped being trustworthy. I’m fixing that structure now before any further verification.
>>564241862>What is this game even about
>>564241858They may be using AI in a lot more ways and not disclosing. They've only been public about using AI code but at least one artist who worked with valve admitted to using AI to design characters. Imagine what else they're not disclosing.
Wow, just wow. Some years ago I posted about a gamedev who pivoted from making unique games to just cloning FOTM and finally succeeding, prior to that success it was about 10 years of game after game released. Just found out that one of the dev teams I used to watch the game of, ended up making a new game. A FOTM clone. Previous game was in development for about 5 years on Steam starting from when it entered early access. An unknown amount prior to reaching this state since a game didn't just pop into existence at an early access state, let's assume 2 years. Not even 1000 reviews. Then they went and made FOTM clone, the gap between those 2 games is almost a full 2 years and it has almost 2000 reviews. Sister's....I-I should make clone's shouldn't I? Why toil hard when I can make a clone, succeed, and then work on my more desired idea's without fear of failure sending me back to the wagecage?
>>564239378Peak CCU was 953 and it is currently number 183 in top sellers. What does that mean?
>>564242260Just the reality of the world. Gamerpigs do not want original games, they don't even actually want good games. They want derivative easily digestible slop.
>>564242260go ahead. You have my blessing. just don't spend more than 6 months of your life on it
Oh god
https://x.com/leoshimo/status/2045254020428869827AI chads we can already playtest and try to find bugs with AI, computing prices are dropping too which means that this level of AI will be local AI territory in a few months, pedo nodevs wont like this
>>564241154yeah?
>>564241056>I desire to see MMO98 reach 1000 reviews just to see the salt.that guy is a cunt but dont you realize how mentally ill you are for even typing this? you did this shit too with the nun game that flopped, youre queer
>>564242456>it is currently number 183 in top sellersIt means that it's in new and trending and will be in the premium rotation for games that have similar tag weight, if it's in top 50 Valve can contact you for a frontpage deal.
>>564243308https://www.promptingguide.ai/
Why does this happen to me?
>>564243256>it didn't even hit 1k reviews and we're already seeing the saltlol. lmao
>>564243395my husband used the number 183 today as well, what does this mean. I'm freaking out.
>>564243131>Using AI to play an incremental gameWe are reaching levels of slop previously thought to be impossible
>>564243308>fat midget>knight helmet>wizard staff>skin suit with heels for no reasonUnironically the worst character design I've ever seen
You gotta make something fundamentally hard to make if you want minimal competition
>>564243581That's just synchronicity, don't look into it because it can make you paranoid. Also I didn't know we had gays in here.
>>564230104Incredible lineup of talent and Kodaka.

>>564243308Too fat.
>>564245993Years of /agdg/ has prepared me for this.
>>564243131if only you had a game to do all of that
>>564242528:(>>564242649>6 monthsThere is no way I can clone some of these game's fast enough, especially not multiplayer one's. I wish I had a team.
>>564243395>if it's in top 50 Valve can contact you for a frontpage deal.Is that true?
You know
>>564246439He just made that up. The cut-off isn't some rank. It's some subjective money amount of revenue (whatever that valve employee feels like that week). The front page carousal is manually curated.
>>564243705True. The idea of my game is slowly being reached which terrifies me. There is currently 1 person developing a similar game but it's overall design is different enough that impact should be minimal.
>>564246349>no way I canget a claude ultimate enterprise XD 9000:World warriors sub
>>564246349Skill issue.
>>564246349don't clone multiplayer. and just clone 2d games
>>564230497Other platforms should probably compete with them first and offer a better experience for gamers, one of the more novel things I've seen recently is Discord's ability to rent dedicated servers with boosts. While a little nonsensical for most people, if you instead had other ways to drive money and engagement like with a storefront that hyperfocuses on being community first that makes you want to play games inside their ecosystem that'd be a first step.
hopoo works on deadlock therefore deadlock is an /agdg/ game
>>564247520>don't clone [popular games]. and just clone [unpopular games]Your average NGMIgger, ladies and gentlemen.
>>564248285works for GMI devs like biteme
>>564248513The vast majority of their games are 3D and they've released mutliplayer games before. Any art in MMO98 that isn't AI is 3D out of an asset store. They didn't make a primarily 2D game this time because they're too retarded for anything else and have no other choice like you.
>>564248705>The vast majority of their flop games are 3Dstopped reading there
>>564248880cope
>Manage to code something without AII'm getting there
mmo98 is a 2d game. don't make a 3d game means not doing all the 3d game hurdles. you can use 3d assets in your 2d game

If you make games fast and cheap enough you can never flop. You are, in fact, immune from flopping.

you release your nostalgia clicker game and made 3000 dollars in the first month. you have to pay 3 employees a wage of 2000 dollars per month. you have now 3 years time to make a new game. what do you do?

life feels oddly similar to gambling.you always lose, but you have a chance of winning. and that chance makes you keep playing. and while you play someone else gets rich from it. be it government collecting your taxes, your landlord collecting your rent or your grocery store selling overpriced slop.

90% of this thread is basically just bullying and people being proud about successfully bullying others.
>>564253317I will bully you into making a good game
>>564252894I have been using Gemini for my project and it's been very helpful. I just wanted to make sure it was the best one. But yeah AI made me love making games again
>>564253495Based, mcdonalds made me love cooking again
But it's there at least
>>564253495it's still SOTA more or less. Claude was the best before it was dumbed down in feb
I'm going to make an mmo98 clone. It will be better, and it will sell better.
https://llm-stats.com/
>>564254086do you have a built-in fan-base though?
>>564253317Most of the bullying though was somethin akin to: "your game is shit here and there for this reasons. Fix it" That's exactly the reason this was the best dev community. If I wanted an hugbox there are 300 devs communities on discord and reddit where everybody suck each other off
>>564254202I'll call in and syphon his fanbase.

>>564256118i wonder if someone like this, who anthropomorphizes math operations, would make a good game developer or not.......does such a person anthropomorphize their own code too?

>>564257297Bet you love to watch Claude dev your game.
>Bet you love putting Claude's Big Blocks of Code into your game.
>>564256118thats exactly how I see it. I spend up to $500 USD on tokens a month and its doing way more then hiring a developer could do at a much lower rate it's basically a steal, like having a genius developer from the 3rd world willing to work for a fraction of minimum wage.

>>564233047>Technical skills dont matter anymore. It's all about ideas.Technical skills matter because execution matters. AI might write code for you and is capable of some art but it won't make your game good, that is up to you.>>564237372That turned out surprisingly decent. The shoulder silhouette is awkward and the head shape seems a bit weird. It's clearly amateur work but I was expecting it to turn out a lot worse.You can slide down the smoothness value on the material to get rid of that gloss.
>>564256038>cooked your dinner in an electric oven instead of gathering driftwood, kindling and clay and started a fire under it with a bow>lol civvies be like: power went out, can't heat my frozen dinner>yes it took me 4 hours to cook this piece of salmon and has all kinds of carcinogens in it, I don't have the resources to build something better on my own but at least I didn't use electricity
>>564254556So you're saying the quicker churn rate of going through games benefits him and he is fully aware and happy for this?I'd rather have games where I could sink 500 hours into (happily, not addiction or sunk cost) than many small games where I got my enjoyment for only 2 hours and after it just feels like a slog. Obviously the latter is more profitable. 250 games at 4.99 draws in more money than 1 very good game with 500 hours of enjoyable time at 19.99
I'm going to create an mmo98 clone. It will be better than smammo. I don't need any silly old windows theme.
>>564259692Main problem is getting 30h of enjoyment out of a game happens once every 5 years or so because we're completely reliant on those without the means to make them since those with the means are more interested in monetization than gameplay
The negative reviews are pretty funny, doubters still btfo
>>564247520:^( i wanted to clone multiplayer games though. Hmm I wonder what games are good for cloning. Real shame I didnt clone vampire survivors when the opportunity was there
Looks like it will break 500 before the month is over, with summer and winter sale I'd estimate 700-800 reviews eoy
... How much is mmo98 carried by its windows 98 theme? I'm thinking a lot.....FUCKI don't want to use a meme theme.
Are we getting enough new devs to replace the devs finishing their games or is agdg gonna get more and more empty of game picture posts as time goes on?>>564259984Heh I was just looking at the page a few minutes ago

135 days left. I had some unexpected expenses that will probably reduce the amount of days left by 10-15%, maybe more. I'll do the numbers at the end of the month, but it's not looking good.Today I'll be continuing on that big enemy spawning system I started on yesterday. I don't want to jinx it but it's going faster than expected, even in my sleep deprived state.I owe my game 1100 minutes of work because I paid 100 minutes of the debt yesterday.
>>564261014Same but with it priced at $14.99.>>564261370What's the drink? Looks kinda yummy. Iirc you don't live with your parents, why not move back in to extend how long you can dev?

The list just keeps growing.>why not move back in to extend how long you can dev?I'll probably have to move back with my parents if I can't find any kind of job, but I'd like to avoid it. And the chances of my game being successful are so low that it's not worth making any sacrifices for. I'm probably better off giving up on it than seeing it through, but I stubbornly want it to be at least like a monument to my gamedev career.

Just go into an heated argument with my mom, telling her that I don't need university because my remake of "Defense Of The Ancients" is going to launch my game dev career and that the richest and best game development studios would have come to kiss my feet to hire me.I guess the delusion wore off now? It's not the first time I make statements like this, anyway, gotta start working on my DOTA remake now, I can't to appear like a delusional clown.

>>564266002Asian girls are quiet rats that only "love" you if you are a gigachad, looks are everything for them. Of course they don't tell you that, but they only care about what kids (genetic mutants) she will get from you, after she had her kids, you're worthless, only alive to take care of the family with money and presence.I never want an Asian woman ever again.Almost married one of the monsters. You know how asians learn at school and store everything in their brains by force like robots and the moment it's not useful anymore, they forget it almost instantly? That's how Asians are in relationships.In comparison, White women are truly above all, I can really tell the difference, asuming, that she's not an indoctrinated feminist idiot whore.(Asian ones are even worse)Good luck marnix

>>564267134I'm the opposite, when I make enough money I start looking for ways to work less for the same bag. When I have a good circle of friends I politely turn others invitations down. When I'm offered promotions I look at the benefits before the money.

>>564269239i doubt your game would be easy to market, before i even begin making a game my main priority is my promotion strategymy actual games are barebones, barely a step above tech demos, mixed reviews at best are what i expectbut i'll be damned if i don't sell enough copies to keep operatingin my current position i can not help others
Sasquatch B is irrelevant.
the reason i can't collaborate with others is because whatever ideas they'd have i'd just constantly say how shit those ideas are. i'm just not physically capable to work on shit ideas.

>>564269197Incremental games fill the same niche as restaurants, spas, host bars or maid/butler cafés, for a price you get an unearned experience and for a brief moment get to experience being important and influential.

if you wanna get rich, have childhood trauma that fuels your people pleaser energy to impress others to get loved for what you can provide. but don't get mad when your wife also has a real lover behind your back (often a poor selfish guy), while you are the provider.
>>564269659i hate to doubt you but "could be massive" != "designed to collect organic sales through promotional content even without the assistance of large content creators"you need your game to be compatible with a story that will incentivize people to play your game from pure intrinsic interest, not just because their internet friend simulations tell them it's funshit's hard, low success rate

if i'd sum up 2026 it's: "the 1% of devs who have a nice paying job complaining about ai replacing their job, talking to the 99% of devs who couldn't get a job even before ai"slowly but surely the middle class gets to feel what it means to be outcompeted by higher educated "people" with better family backgrounds.

>>564246439Yes, any game that stays in that threshold can get a frontpage deal.

Making a game is something i do just to pass the time while i wait for death. This life is pointless and i know I'll never get what i want here. I can only wait for the afterlife and the hope that i can become a perfect man there and live with the anime girl I'm obsessed with as my loving wife. But until then i have nothing better to do so i might as well make a game.

what's up with pedonigs always projecting, gaslighting and lying about everything? why are they so judaic and evil?
real shit why doesnt anyone port their games to mac anymore?also why the fuck did duke nukem forever have a mac portmac is easily the best OS no this isnt up for debate
>>564274728he's not a gigachad either. I think anon was employing savage irony
>>564275368he is a gigachad i tried to make youtube videos and i get like 2 views and dont tell me i need to make more videos because i hit like 200 videos speaking into the abyss
>>564275280You need to buy a Mac to port to Mac.Having that in my home will seriously disturb my feng shui.
does the world need more co-op shooters?
>>564275246thats why furryfags are based they know they are total freaks and don't care if you insult them
>>564275664co-op shooters can fall under friendslop so yeah, you can try your luck with those
I want to post my game but you all hate it
>>564270183>i don't know if anons consider buckshot roullete here "slop" (i do but that doesn't matter anyway)it's not slop, it's a very original experience. it's also 15 minutes long so it doesn't deserve a penny let alone the millions it acually made, but it's definitely not slop the way lethal company and peak are.
>>564275781>you alldon't group me in with those anti-loli faggots
i beat pragmata and there was way too much feet girl shotswhy did they do shots like that so much it had to be intentional because i recorded my whole run and there's like a solid 2 mins of pure feetis this the future of gamedev?
>>564276042noticing says more about you me thinks
The Frydarian Tale update: I will be changing the design of Basileus Joseph Fygoon to be more like this concept art I generated. This is because I believe there are enough games with strong heroic protagonists and I want to break the mold by making a more feminine male the hero.There are also lots of strong males already in the game, so this change will make Basileus stand out even more.As you can see I also added horns because while it technically goes against the lore, I think it makes his appearance look even more heroic and striking.I am not yet sure if I will change the story in any way to reflect his changed design but be on the lookout for future updates on this.Fygoon out!
>>564276193how does it say more about me? im genuinely interested in feet recharging tech
>>564254223That's some stockholm syndrome shit my dude
>boshart the troondit avatarnot reading that
>>564275858originality doesn't necessarily define whether a game is slop or not. rv there yet is also an "original experience", for example.either way that doesn't matter anyway. even if you make it with a non-slop game on steam today you're unlikely to be able to continue making non-slop games unless you make stardew valley or terraria tier money.
>>564266695I sure as hell have a lot more fun now that I have to work to survive and literally not die in the streets in poverty if I don't have enough fun. Being an adult is easy.Fucking retard.
slop is just any game that isn't immersive or has a story according to you people. if tetris or pacman was made today it would be called slop because it's just an arcade-y minigame
>>564277090tetris is slop pacman is only slop because it only has like 2 boards.
>>564276931i have no idea what rv there yet is but it seems to be co-op so it's slop regardless of subject matter
>>564270906you can't do a big reveal when you have no audience
>>564275770it seems like there are quite a few co-op shooters already so I wouldn't be able to compete with these massive corporations. my other direction is a korean war fps. none of those exist, but competing with all the ww2/vietnam/cold war games would fail as well.the success of that single player mmo erenshor has me thinking thogh that i could make make a fps with massive bot battles and co-op so all the people that dont want to put up with the pvp have a game they can play. like old school battlefield with bots.
>>564272558I can't make it a vidya but I can make it a social game where you stream with a filter and must not be caught
>>564277350I could skydive from the cn tower into the dome
>>564277334i think you have problems with logical discussion, considering the way you talk
>>564274058you can have the anime girl of your dreams already see here >>564230216
>>564275246because they understand that they're hated and evil but they don't want to deal with the consequences because they are eviljews act in a similar manner for similar reasons>>564275734>furfags>basedno
>>564277861i want it to be real though not that scary weird shit
>>564277861he cant own a tranime girl because gabencunt is buying yachts with the money he would use to acquire such tranime girl even if xhe wanted to
>>564275664Before asking that questing you should be asking yourself if you can make a coop shooter good enough that there's a place for it in the market. >>564277523You could look at the old stuff like Delta Force, other games from that studio, Operation Flashpoint, ARMA. You don't have to go full military autism simulator but there's probably some overlap with the audience. In ARMA all the mission creation tools were pretty big part of the experience so you could lean into that.
>>564278582>scary weird shityou sure have normie takes for someone who is supposedly waiting for death
>>564278650i actually player operation flashpoint a bit a bit after it came out. milsims aren't really my speed. something right in the middle of milsim/arcade is what i want to make. you dont have to move super slowly and precisely, but you also arent full sprinting all the time. a map that progresses like battlefield BC 2's rush or 1's operations mode.
>>564278818that's just a reasonable take. anime girls are hot but if a real girl had those facial proportions she would look like a weird monster. just look at alita battle angel. anime girls irl would just be real girls
i wish i could do as much mental damage as the dragon to the creature's mind
>>564279032>something right in the middle of milsim/arcade is what i want to makeI really liked the Red Orchestra 2, Rising Storm, Rising Storm 2 line of games for that middle area. The elements of realism included in those games made them more fun in their own way instead of making them jank to play like ARMA or Flashpoint. Highly recommend playing those if you haven't already.
>>564279419never played rising storm 1. i liked 2, but it felt a bit jank but enjoyable. i really liked RO2, but didnt play it anywhere near enough as i feel i should have.

>>564279797RS1 is basically RO2 but with US vs Japan as factions. They have their own rough edges but I think that's true for popular arcade FPS like BF4 and CoDs as well. Though to be fair I have not played CoD in like 15 years.

the reason i don't dev anymore is cause everything i naively thought i could make, i tried, and wasn't able to make. now i have no naive ideas left anymore. just a bunch of knowledge what i can't do.
I can make literally everything but it'll take too long and I have no idea what will be appealing to gamercattle and what won't

>>564284662to figure out realistic ideas instead of naive ones.>>564284724if you need 200 years to make a video game it literally means you "can not". it literally means you are not able to. do you understand basic logic?that's like saying "i can afford house, i just don't have enough money to buy it".

why does gamedev drive people crazy
>>564284967Did marnix do this? I only want to market like winners
>listening to my music on loop. pc freezes up while loading something and creates the coolest glitch/stutter effect I've ever heard. um what vst can do this effect?
>>564284876false equivalence retardmoney is a thing you have, as is abilitiesif you have abilities you can make a game.if you don't have enough money to buy a house you can't buy a house even if it takes 1 year to save enough, one year being a reasonable amount of time for an indie game.by your logic you can only afford a house if you have enough money today, and you can only make games if you can make it TODAY. >but!any other line to draw would be would arbitrary. dumbass.
i think playing video games can make you more productive. it forces you to stop thinking and to start doing. the zombies don't care about your existential crisis. the soldiers don't care if you have depression. the aliens don't care about you giving up on your goals. fight or die is the language of the video game world. if you play enough vidya you will be prepared for the real world.
>>564285201It's the other way around. Only crazy people would come to agdg, and gamedev as an hobbiest in general
>>564285201>>564285462Happy, realized, and successful people wouldn't come here in the first place
>>564285407sounds like something I was telling my mom when she locked my computer because my grades were shit
>>564285598ironically school is the #1 reason i developed a serious depression. even 15 years later i still dream of school and being mogged by teachers for not being the perfect student who knows everything and spends all afternoon doing extra homework. i can trace all my perfectionism and overthinking back to school and my teachers weird obsession with perfect grades.
>>564285201Solo indie gamedev is one of the absolute hardest career paths you could've chosen for yourself.
>>564284876>to figure out realistic ideas instead of naive ones.scale down to something so simple that it feels silly and make thatyes something that feels stupid to even think of making because it is so simplemake it and discover all the parts where you'll struggle despite thinking it would be easyincrementally increase the complexity bit by bit as you gain confidence
>>564260547Maybe scars. I need to really improve my placement of things
>getting familiar with godot>want to make a game that uses quite a lot of sprites and collisions>drawing overhead scales too much, have to use the low level api>collision overhead scales too much, have to roll my own with the low level apiI'm starting to question the benefits of using Godot at this point instead of just going for a low-level 2D engine or framework. I'm not too sure which one though.
>>564286016that's not a realistic idea, that's a hobby idea. realistic means it's a good idea and still makes money.
>>564284967the blackpill is that these all look like competent games...holy....and visually better than mine.i'm gameplay maxxing
>>564285201failing at gamedev, or worse failing to try gamedev, drives people crazy
>>564286476>the blackpill is that these all look like competent games...holy....and visually better than mineyup, the blackpill is that you can't make a merely good game, it needs to be top 5%. and that will earn you just enough to make another one that's top 5% and so on until you can retire.just keep beating the odds, bro
>>564284967look what gabencunt has reduced the once proud indie gamedev race to...
when a nodev speaks i sit down and listen
>>564286382Godot IS low-level. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXUScrtPaV4Also, skill issue. You can do about ~1k rigid bodies at 60FPS physics frames with the built-in physics. If you need more than that, download rapier, which goes up to ~3k without node syncing. That's pretty much the state of the art, and if you need to go higher, you need to redesign your game with more realistic requirements.
>>564284491yeah that was his advice minutes laterI've been thinking about it for a while
>>564284967Why
i do not play games if there are less than 1000 rigid bodies on the screen. i measure game quality by number of rigid bodies.
>>564286474you don't have the skills to make a good game that makes money
>>564284967Give up. Nobody loves playing your game. They're just updooting screenshots of it.

If you looked at that screencap and thought that you saw good games, then you don't have the vision, and you're not going to make a good game.

Friendly reminder that MMO98 count as "yet another success game released on friday" because today is a holyday in my country so yesterday was basically the same as a friday.
>>564290353there is too much variance to use reviews to infer sales, memes games get way more reviews than say idle games or roguelikes, so it's hard to take you seriously

>>564291084me
>>564291204What even is a favela
I am in a deep, overwhelming depression
It took Marnix 6 tries and 3 years to make a game with over 150 reviews. Even if the game gets 1000 reviews, that will be around $100k after taxes, and he's not a solodev.
>>564291452some sort of turd world slum

Well shit
altered beast but you collect estrogen
>>564292965Nah. I'd say any artfag 2d pixel platformer that makes it is just a lottery winner. It's not something anyone should be trying to replicate. The bottom left one appears to be a MM-battle-network-like and would be the only one I'm willing to bet on.
>>564292994Honestly if you made Altered Beast but you turn into a werewolf that rapes women you might be onto something
>>564293518no you beat up chuds and take their estrogen and use it to turn yourself into a real woman
>>564291905He's got a winning formula now. Mmo99. And then Indiehit26
>>564293668I don't get it, just because you take a bunch of Estrogen doesn't mean you turn into a woman

>>564270278luckily i realized this about waging. i just need to get wealthy so that i dont feel so out of time on making a successful game. like i want to be better at art but the clock is running out on how long i can gamedev>>564300513kek
>>564301360You are a pedophile.
The AA studio I work at likes to hire from employee reference, it's a pretty chill and fun place to work. Anyhow I'm told we're about to start putting ads up looking for some positions, specifically Lead Game Design. Main office on the west coast but a number of guys work remotely. I'm assuming US only but I could check into that.Also don't be put off by the title, it's essentially "idea guy" lol. Thought I'd mention here as a way of giving back to the community that's helped me get where I am today. Competitive wage, pretty good benefits and some employer matching thing I don't use, etc. Hit me with a couple of your best ideas and I'll let you know if it seems like it would be worth your time to pursue.
thoughts on gabencunt? personally i believe he ruined gamedev
>>564269975he's definitely better looking than most youtubers in the gamedev space but a giga chad? nah. now code monkey, that guy looks like giga chad lel. he lives in a poor enough country, Portugal, that he has never ever worked a normal job in his life due to how much he makes.>earningsuhh anon i think you're overestimating how much he's made
>>564282515Reads as a chibi
>>564266002that lifetime steam revenue (net) is deceptive. apparently this doesn't even apply steams cut meaning they will lose an additional 30% before the true net revenue. so that true net revenue is $23,947
lets talk about ecelebs in the amateur gamedev general, said the true Aryan man calmly
>>564302520>thoughts on gabencunt?pure evil, he's like the churchill of gamedev.it will take years after his death for gamedevs to realize what problems he has caused
>>564302402>going through all this effort just to steal ideas from anons
>>564302402A game where you have to pick the best platform for your game, you have to compare audience size and revenue cuts between all of them.Hint: If you pick something other than Steam it's not the correct answer
>>564302951So true Betz so true.
>>564302520That doesn't make any fucking sense. It sounds like they're going to price based on the hour of day? What the fuck.

>>564303795It's a fake image, of course it doesn't make sense. Why are you guys so gullible?
>>564303814i mean she's got a pretty face and a great body. a game like this just markets itself.
>>564303814all that effort to make a trailer about clicking a button for gooners. this will become extremely popular and sell well just because people want to fuck the character. i guess theres a lesson to be learned here

>>564304183in reality games with nsfw content underperform on steam compared to games with the same tags without nsfw content, you can make a patreon thoughteverbeit :)

>>564304183>all that effort to make a trailer about clicking a button for gooners.Lmao yeah I was thinkign the same thing.That's pretty much the only specialization path you can take as a SFM/Blender porn artist to make gamedev bucks.
>>564303814I see why this will be popular but this is barely even a video game. You literally just skip a rope? Surely I'm missing something here, like she has cool rope attacks or something right? This is just a mini game event in an actual Mario game.
>>564295610wtf is so pedo about that? you cant like females now?
Gonna make a Devil Spires like
>>564305229
>>564305231Yes and in some games you just click on a cookie. Whats your point?
>>564305236the poster is a pedo not the content
>>564304991that's because porn games are shitty games
>>564305446Idle games are for actual mind bucked retards. People who play them should be ashamed but they're not because ignorance is bliss.
if the monster only eats black men, is it really a monster?
>>564305446and PC gamercattle have the nerve to look down on console gamers and mobile gamers
>>564305663
>>564286943it's terrible advice. apparently he's never heard of "cutting off your nose to spite your face"i mean it's perfectly fine motivational fuel if that gets you off but it should never be used as a basis for your actions.
>>564305827Stop showing me how many retards exist. It's not proving anything other than that "gamers" are simply retards.
>>564305410Verho, Lunacid, and Dread Delusion have proved to be lucrative and not too big in scope
>>564304991some talented porn artist should team up with some devs and make a CoC+xianxia mod/TiTs-like porn rpg with the character changes and a wide variety of npcs that can cater to all fetishes in existence like those games do but make it in 3d and with an actual world and not the boring text based shit. would make billions of dollars. would probably cost millions to make though
post apocalyptic music for after all of this is said and done and this disgusting little world is put to its well deserved rest archival slumber.https://youtu.be/T5fU7m-jR_s
i wonder if trying to make addictive slop is bad cause there are so many options. i can literally play league of legends for free all day.the only value i could see is unique experiences. e.g. i played "House Party" and it's really a unqiue experience, even if the dialogue paths are so frustrating and require tons of save scumming. but being in a house with other npcs and sex stuff is unique.
>it doesnt work
gamercattle owe me success
>>564306313fuck off pedo
>>564306286league is fun though. i'm playing it right now (loading into a game)
>>564305663>>564305949im fairly certain the boom in idle games (on steam) has nothing to do with gamer interests and everything to do with (on steam)like do these games even exist off steam? if they exist off steam do they have even minimal success off steam? if no to these questions then they probably shouldnt be considered even an independent product so much as they are steam bonus content for steamies to get steaming.
Anyone here was around the last big recession? Is making games worse during global financial crises or better? I know that covid was good to a lot of devs but it was not really the same, I wonder if I should make a 6 months games or a 2 years game so I can release when it's over/better
>>564306581idle and incremental shit is booming on roblox and on mobile and they share a lot of elements with gacha trash
game 1>well thought out cooperative experience with hundreds of hours of gameplay>3,000 reviews>player count after 1 year: 1,000game 2>wacky multiplayer game with 1 hour of gameplay>300,000 reviews>player count after 1 year: 50,000the gamers demand game 1, but when their wallets show favor for game 2, then you better believe there is a preference to develop in the latter style than the former. the games i like are dying off and i believe this is one major reason. who would want to spend time making game 1 for 5 years when game 2 in 1 year will produce 100x the revenue for 1/5 the time?
>>564305975Those games have so much fucking art in them. You underestimate their scope. Devil Spire was some shitty tiny procgen dungeon floors. Sprites would have been work but a lot less than those three.
My MMORPG now has 6 million concurrent players. I made it.
>>564307428
>>564306313kill yourself
I'm outta juice
>>564306698Feel like I've seen this exact post before
>>564307346Now company 1 and 2 are both making another game, which one will people buy? Do you think Game 2 gamers can tell the difference between Game 2.2 and Game 2 clones? My guess is Company 1 can make Game 1 sequels for another 10 years before even exploring another IP or idea
>>564306698make the game you know you can make good
>>564306698studies on gaming's financials have long already said it's an industry propped up by whales. so essentially the baseline isn't expected to drop even through crisis.so basically the positive byproducts of an economic downturn (more freetime) will be additive while the negatives (less spending by those same people) are not detractive since they didn't have the freetime before to even know such and such game existed to even consider buying it.
>>564307701bot
>>564307376>Those games have so much fucking art in them. You underestimate their scope.This. I would love to make a 3D exploration adventure game but the amount of art needed and the skill required, it just isn't going to happen. Art seems to be something very underestimated when it comes to development. Just look at a single town in Skyrim (Whiterun, inside the walls) or Stardew Valley (just the town area and the contents inside the buildings). That's is a lot of art to have it filled. One single area requires that much, now go make the rest of the game.
>>564308170no but do kill yourself
>>564308170he's right kys
>>564307346Proof? Post their actual average playtimes.
>>564308268>>564308304bot posts
my current game is so fucking serious and dark and depressing. i have an urge to make a really happy and hopeful game too but I have already invested a ton of time into this dark game and it i like it a lot. it would just be nice to take a break and do something different
I'm currently running 8 studios and they're all pumping out games.
>>564308456kill yourself
>>564307134kids on roblox and mobile getting sucked into a free cookie-clicker-like makes sense since it's probably their first exposure to a dopamine hole.adults are already dopamine holed by the most hardcore social media and gambling dopamine schedules, they're not gonna flop over for some low-grade vidya dopamine.which is where the steam audience that shits money into this makes no sense......until you consider the wider context of the steam dopamine hole.
>>564308673I can't imagine how much work having 1 is but 8 is incredible. Are you hiring by any chance?
>>564308709bot
>>564308558ok? maybe a screenshot for some context?
>>564308946Yes but only indians.
>>564308001depends i guess. since my example used multiplayer, company 1 will certainly sell well for years to come with sequels, company 2 will need to find a new idea and hope it sells well. the added bonus of company 2 is that their first game made 100x what company 1's game made so they could just shut down the company and still be winning.
>>564308673Okay but how many bots are you running to shitpost on AGDG? That's the real important success metric.
>British aggydaggy devs have tea breaks
Just finished my 3rd game engine. This one supports mesh shaders and pathtracing.

>give Gemini my damage calculation system and ask it to improve it>click on "Show thinking", read>"I see that the current centerline damage calculation logic is quite sophisticated and well-thought-out.">it gives me a useful refinement and makes the code more readable but doesn't change the logicI wrote that code 6 years ago when I barely knew anything.

>>564309849github link?
DAMMIT
FUCK
>>564310794All of my work is proprietary.
I am happy my 2d skills keep improving without becoming rusty.
>>564306581aren't these games just used by steamjeets to farm trading cards and community marketplace items which they turn into steam dollars than they later cash out one way or another?idk how it functioned before 2022 but after gabencunt published the steam deck, you can now basically turn all your steam trading cards and community marketplace items into real money by buying a steamdeck with steam dollars and then reselling it on ebay or something.

>>564311161Draw where you think her spine and pelvis are and how you think those connect to her legs.
its called directx because when you play a game made with it you will directly click on the x and close the program
non trans thoughts on 2d bone animations? is it corny or kino?
I'm going to work on my game in a bit. You may wish me luck.
proprietary devs dont go to heaven when they die
>>564312205Good Luck
>>564312108hideoustranscodedgaben would probably feel too sorry for you to even accept your $100 dollars
>>564312435Yes they do. Eric Barone and Notch are on the list. Those are by definition 'proprietary devs'.
>>564311168and there you have it. not a single dopamine holer in sight like an actual clicker game should have.just a pile of scams in the great scam pyramid.
>>564312708if they go to heaven with people like me i'll ask to leave
>>564312108It works if you've got style like Ska
>>564312759You'll be able to choose not to see them if you want. Heaven is not servitude to some God, it is freedom. It is being a God.
if gamedev is hard and games are easy. then why am i so stressed after playing league of legends, yet after deving iam chill?maybe the problem isn't gamedev being hard but gamedev being boring?
>>564312895You're getting stressed because you're hypervigilant about uncontrollable variables
>there are people itt that use windows
>>564312708>Eric Barone>heavenHe's aligned with (((them)))
