What happened to this game?
>>564873754release in 2036
>>564873754boku spent too long trying to salvage trash instead of just shoving it out and moving on.honestly he gives credence to the idea that some people just shouldn't do certain things
reminder that it's mostly about luck
>>564873754swindling people on kickstarter and never releasing his game
>>564873932did you mean september 1st 1939?
>>564873980>complete accident>seals himself away from society the majority of the time he developed this gameWhat is this? Is he trying to change the story of how his game came about and the reasoning?
>>564873946yeah it's pretty clear he's too afraid to release it because it will flophe's coping by keeping it as a forever in progress project so it can't flop on him
so who else thinks Bokube will never release? feels like he just keeps kicking the can down the road with excuses on what he needs to work on. if he does end up releasing, what year do you all think he will?
ive mixed two gameplay styles together and have made the most unique game in the world. when it releases people will go "why didnt i think of that!!" like they did with vampire survivors
>>564874632>what is Magic Survival?

>>564876526ok pdf
>>564876526you keep coming up with excuses but the truth is that you shouldn't exist
these complaints about pedophiles are tiresome. I don't understand what they're trying to achieve. you can't provoke moral outrage on 4chan because 4chan culture is lacking a moral compass. just report inappropriate pics and hide the posts.

playing horizon forbidden west for uh... research for my own game. nevermind i was wrong this game actually has some people working on it with soul. underwater section in las vegas was kino with the holograms, and they put in the whole effort of making the entire place go back to it's neon light show after you complete it even though 99% of players will probably just leave at that point. underwater swimming also felt ten times better than the retarded climbing system and kinda made me want to make a game about swimming.

>>564882256Literal bot behavior. These morons will be easily replaced.
>>564882407gabencunt
>>564882310>xhe doesn't get inspired by big fucking awesome robotsLow t honestly
Wanting to make an indie MMO is a doomed idea, ya? Like on a technical level making some runscape or real of the mad god like game seems fine, but deal with hackers seems annoying and if the game needs people playing to be fun to play it seems to run into a chicken and the egg problem where you wont get the initial playerbase needed to make it fun which is need to retain and grow a player base
>>564882829It's also not sustainable. There are too many other games they can pick from and putting a game on Steam and making a quick buck is better because there's no upkeep.
robot crap is so overdone
My game is MUCH more successful than some games that get 10-100x more likes on Twitter. I'm beginning to think getting likes on Twitter doesn't count for much.
>>564882990So is fantasy. What genre isn't overdone?
>>564882984>because there's no upkeepexcept you're gonna get negative reviews from steamies for not perpetually updating your $3 slop game
>>564883158contemporary urban that isn't a horror game/slop simulator of some kindbesides samson and gta 6 i can't really think of a "proper" game in that setting

>>564883398>contemporary urbanvomit
>>564882984I'd be a game I would regularly play myself so I dont care about profitting off it as much as making sure it can have a player base large enough for a comfy community and for the in game economy to function properly>>564883158The Biz genre

>>564882407Rational people don't make games, they get real jobs instead.
>>564886964Why is that rational?sounds like you're defining rational as confirmity.
>>564885503I honestly have the idea of uploading a free game on steam, then sell like a pro version with an art book and a CD-music and a card deck by a higher price than selling the game at what indies usually sell them.

>>564877906You can. Should you? If you have no intention to ever make it professional or learn anything, sure.Watch these threads and see how many devs both post progress and use AI. It's almost always one or the other, not both.
you all keep melting down because you are stupid and cowards unlike me.

>>564883431>imagine if 90s gen X guitarists had this lousy attitudeThe world would be so much better, words cannot begin to describe how much I detest grunge and numetal and their cultural impact. The Jesusification of Kurt Cobain has killed any amount of joy you can experience from an artistic medium. We can't just say what we mean and lay out chests bear we have to wrap it in sarcasm and self-deprecation to appease the unknown critic who might dare suggest unc is cringe.
>>564880374Kek. How many of these dev's claim they're doing it for fun and that this game, yes this game is their dream game? Yeah bro you went from childhood to adulthood and your dream game is.....Vampire Survivors clone.....>>564884403I hope so cause I've been watching these two goth girls on tiktok with big tits.

>>564882829Seems to be. I want to make an MMO too but there are just too many issues to deal with especially with expectations in 2026 compared to 2006. One of the best times for making MMO's without getting players coming in with high expectations and immediately abandoning the game has long since passed. An MMO I played a while back was good, exactly what I would love to make myself. But it had some shortcomings and thus struggled to maintain a player base. If this was 2006's MMO landscape, I doubt it'd have struggled maintaining a player base. Now I need to come in with lots of content, great graphics, and frequent quality updates. Oh and of course somehow have a large player base on day 1 otherwise the crowd may just leave the game asap. But games like Runescape? They've been grandfathered in, they can stay as is and succeed. Man I wish I was a gamedev back then. The mid 2000's to mid 2010's were some of the best times to get grandfathered in. Where the crowd would just accept your game and even if 10 years pass they won't hold you to the bar the hold new games to. Imagine that, being there during the easy days of gamedev and completely missing out. ;_;

>>564890938>tfw just found out HROT was in development since 2017>released in 2023 (6 years time)>tfw the dev had the idea since 1997How is it that his idea evades getting cloned or incidentally created, is it the art the makes it difficult for others to make something similar? Or is it cause the clone games didn't really ramp up until the last few years?
>>564891950Because with idea he means vision, everything planned out in his head, his masterpiece, the attention to detail everything just lining up, he just needed to go execute it, this is what separates ideaguys from the lot of you.
>Weebs on here can get together and make an imsim>Furfags on here can get together and make a NV clone>Normal anons can't get together and make an The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind cloneWhy?
>>564892123But I go make a game and there's like 9 others who pop up with similar looking art or better. The idea then loses meaning since it becomes a 1 vs 9 but the winner will be whichever has the best art. The idea loses weight when the main difference is simply art. How is that despite his idea falling under a popular genre he wonnered? The gameplay looks like others of the genre yet he won. The art?
i finally figured out the mental illness a lot of people seem to have here. it's called guilt-tripping/guilt-complex.it's when unreasonable high expectations were placed on you and you feel guilty for not meeting them. it can e.g. happen when you are not mentally ill enough. e.g. if others want to start a war and you don't want to, you could be considered guilty for being to lazy to fight. yet the other ones are the mentally ill ones for wanting to kill.or if someone is obsessed with helping others and you don't want to help, and then you are gaslit into believing you are bad and selfish (big in europe right now).or when someone is very tidy and always needs everything extremely clean. and you don't care that much, you aren't a messy, but you also don't need everything very clean, which is normal. therefore you aren't mentally ill, but the actually mentally ill person constantly shames you for not being tidy enough.with that type of mental illness you constantly feel judged, like you have to redeem yourself. you will always feel like you have to do something that goes against your own will. you constantly feel like others think something is wrong with you, yet you don't feel it yourself about you. you feel ok with what you are doing, but you feel judged for doing so. so your problem isn't "not being tidy enough", your problem is the judgement from others for not being tidy enough.what this will do is create a whole life where you constantly feel guilty and judged. you are scared that others will attack you, punish you etc. - you don't do things anymore because you see value in them, but only to avoid punishment. therefore you have a really hard time knowing what you want. you don't have this strong energy to create your own life, cause your whole life becomes pleasing the mentally ill people putting high standards on you.this might accelerate when you are a people-pleaser or very lonely and therefore "needy" for validation and human contact.
>>564892535anon, hrot went popular when the boomer shooter craze was at its peak, >>564891215 already pointed this outit became popular in 2017 and released in early access in 2021 on the steme before the dev finished it in 2023

>>564894617how do you know it's me. and i'm kinda sad because republicans are mean to me and i feel like everytime i go outside there are people that wanna kill me
>>564894591No, the dev was masterminding the entire thing from the start. It was obvious his game was going to make it and now he's gaslighting everybody about how it was all an accident. It's impossible to make a good game by accident.
so he really was one of you people after all
>>564892292Anyone want to team up to make a Morrowind like?
playing the sims 3 reminds me of what it feels like when developers respect you. i almost forgot that my mind can be treated with respect. i guess something similar would be early disney.i gain self-worth again by playing it. like "yeah, i'm worth of someone treating me nicely and not just slopping into my brain".this is what is must feel like to be a slut. you are so used to guys treating you like shit that you think it's normal, and when there's a guy who treats you nicely you begin to realize how perverted your life was before, which you thought was just "normal".actually when i went to bed the soundtracks played in my head and it was like a breath of fresh clean air going through my neurons.i guess gamedevs can either be like crack dealers or like gourmet restaurants. they can make you a braindead consumer of hard drugs or they can make you a healthy enjoyer of fine taste.sadly the whole maxis team probably was absorbed by the braindrain in the dev industry and now works in other fields.

>>564899237I'm only planning on adding fantasy skins.
somehow the real challenge about games is to break them. getting a reward for following all the orders and doing exactly as you are told is not really a challenge, it's just following orders.you truly beat a game when you break it. just like in real life.you shouldn't ask "what's the correct way to get rich", you should ask "how do i find money glitches and break the game that artificially keeps me poor to waste my time?"

Here's my honest review of horizon so far.Its a very weird mix of competent and trash. Theres all these very competent parts made by clearly skilled people right next to complete dogshit. Most puzzles and world design seem pretty well thought out by the designers but fail due to the awful floaty and unresponsive movement and climbing system. Machines are all very in-depth enemies and each have tons of parts which can detach if damaged or react when attacked with different status effects and change their moveset or cause effects to occur which is really impressive but are held back by the stupid buggy AI. Combat is decently fun and there is a lot of build variety but is held back by the awful cluttered controls that are designed for controllers and not keyboards. Story has some interesting concepts but it's held back by the game treating me like a braindead retard and overstating the obvious. Some characters are interesting and well voice acted while others are complete DEI slop and sound like fiverr VAs. There's also a lot of accessibility shit that just gets in the way. definitely feels like there's a handful of geniuses surrounded by an army of retarded DEI hires pushed onto them who made this game. I think salvaging the unique and good parts and transferring them to a game where you fix all the retarded awful shit would make for a very good game, but unfortunately the good parts seem extremely complex to create, at least for my coding and art skills.
>>564903619back when rotate still pretended to dev
>>564903883Understandable.
>>564903883why aren't you asking AI to do it while you shitpost?
the first priority in life should be to become invincible. everything else is basically like buying time on the sinking titanic.the real reason life is meaningless is because of death.
>>564902365NTA but I'm utterly infuriated because while my moveset is functioning and generally feels nice to use, I feel my inputs are too samey and the resulting attacks, while they serve functions, are too easy to perform. For example, pause attacks are more focused on multi-hit and hold attacks are more heavy one-hits. But even though those serve a purpose, it's TOO functional.-Attack - Attack - Attack>Attack - Pause - Attack-attack-attack>Attack - Attack - Pause - Attack-attack-attack>Attack - Hold - Release>Attack - Attack - Hold - ReleaseThese all result in entirely different moves depending on where it diverges, but IMO this isn't good enough for a system that's meant to be more difficult to use under pressure. I need to mix it up more but IDK what the hell I should even do.My OCD literally bleeds through my combo tree and it deeply pisses me off.>Okay I added pause inputs here>But I gotta add them here to even it outI ALSO have "Switch" as an input, where switching to a different weapon mid-combo can result in an entirely different attack for said weapon, but once again, my OCD is a problem because then I start trying to fill every fucking possible player input with an attack even though it serves no purpose.

they will tell you that having a girlfriend is a high expectation and that you aren't entitled to sex, yet they don't tell you that having a job and any income is a high expectation. when in fact having a job and finding a girlfriend should be about equally as hard and both just a normal human thing.i'm starting to believe that making money at all is a high expectation. you are competing with powerful people with all the resources, you are competing with literal robots, you are competing with think tanks, you are competing with networks, yet you are told that you are supposed to make money and that everybody "has to work". i think earning money is a luxury.

>>564905947nothing is hard unless you make it hard. it's all about how you design the process.the difficulty mostly comes from needing money asap, therefore the time schedule is so small that ofc it becomes very hard. it's like being expected to build a house in 2 hours.is beating pokemon hard? is beating pokemon in 1 hour hard? is beating pokemon in 4 weeks hard?all of our difficulty comes from economic pressures. otherwise we'd just chill our way to the finish line.

I was thinking about buying a steam game, which of these 2 do you guys think I should buy? They seem roughly comparable in terms of reviews, not sure if the developers did something to piss people off or simply made a bad game? :/

Shit I think I've made more progress in the past month than I did all last year. I'm finally able to just sit down and work on my game for 8+ hours a day. I'm in zen mode right now.
>>564908229LOL yes. I also had this experience. I've made more progress than I have in the past 2 years. It's intense. I attribute it to me being spiritually enlightened and also knowing what I want to make for sure. I see it in my mind clearly.

I honestly want to make a game like a pokemon world with waifus where I simulate diferent nations of waifus, and basically have something like 256 waifus in an island and they live an npc life, where they work, pee, shit, sleep, eat, get drunk, socialize.But then I realized, why not use an LLM to generate the content, like I can code a randomizer of anime tropes and generic waifu archetypes, mix that shit with insecurity, hypergamy and other shit like hobbies and histrionism for the realistic female experience.And then use comfyui to generate the art of them naked and sucking the MC brown shota huge shota dick.So why not aim for something big like 10k npcs?Why not go big and just have an rpg with waifus you can talk to and fuck where they live their own SIMS life, but you can basically do GTA shit to them.I could basically generate every possible IRL race and anime combination.

>>564906251back in the 2010s a black lady i worked with told me her son and his friends were making video games. to put it bluntly this will probably go the same way gig work is going.....a race to the bottom on prices>sometime ago: could get $250 for driving your car around delivering for amazon between 3 to 4 hours>today: $65........for 4 hours of drivingkek and there are people taking it and not doing the maththe majority of people push themselves into any financial venture and drive it straight into the ground. and with so many people coming online this seems to be accelerating. i was already noticing this for gamedev and honestly i think the outcome of a bunch of people refusing to give up on gamedev and just continue even with lowering odds of success is very likely. doesn't help that some use it as a parasocial thing/fame seeking. i could see it getting so bad and them still not quiting even if it ends up becoming that a 100 review game makes your game a top 1% earner. i wonder how the /agdg/ anons who were devving in the early 2010s feel if they havent made it by now
with this new idea i may have won(accord to chatgpt)
is a masters really needed to be a gamedev?
progress:: Refactored the leg animator to be 100% procedural, no animation clips/animator needed anymore. Figured I can't be arsed to manually keyframe walk/run cycles per unique mech leg so I just made it all procedural. Just need to tweak a few numbers and it animate any mech leg.

>>564914963I hate being a doomer but I completely understand your sentiment, and I share it. Who knows if it's jjust a feeling or a true inevitability.I can be competent. i can make a good game. It's over when that is no longer enough. It's already happening with competent games. The sentiment is going to shift from "AAA vs indies" to "AAAs, AAs, Indie studios vs randomly good games". Indie studios will get the same hate as AAAs for being low risk and their blatant shared goal of making revenue.I'd like to keep working on games for years to come. But it's only going to get harder, isn't it? Each year that passes, this is just going to get worse.
>>564919778That's actually Marnix himself. The Belgian guy is just an AI vtuber persona.
>>564920130samefagging but it doesn't help that our only market is gabe's steam where 50% steam sales are the norm. bros
>>564920228Big if true. Another massive win for AI jeets.
>>564920229Steam is the biggest problem not just because of the sales but because steam only promotes 400ish games a year. That is what pushes the race to the bottom into overdrive because it makes it so you can't even cling to a niche.Like if you're making something like a VR horror game why would the success of a roguelike deck builder matter, right? It shouldn't but it does because every game that succeeds lowers your own odds of success. Its a cruel and retarded system that puts every dev in direct competition with each other.
my game > your game
>>564920130>I'd like to keep working on games for years to come. But it's only going to get harder, isn't it? Each year that passes, this is just going to get worse.It basically boils down to the thing I need happening, massive success of one game. With gamedev it just feels like you either make enough to quit waging (or at least be able to neet for several years) or you're still stuck waging. The middle ground feels impossible. You need a lot of things going your way to even get the middle ground, full return on investment + a multiplier to make up for not knowing how much you would make + an additive amount to cover the expenses of at least 3 medium sized games. Enough money needs to be made so that this gamble can even be worth it and for it to cover the development of future games. As for the necessity of it earning enough to cover the expense of 3 medium sized games, that is just in case you release one and it flops, then you are still in the clear for 2 games.
Yep.I think i'll accept failure when i hit a certain age, and then just get into some stable blue collar job with a union or something. Get myself a wife and family.

>>564877906You would probably use conventional image-gen, meshify to make it a 3D model and then mixamo for animations, throw it in blender with a pre-rendering script. It's still some work but it will yield the highest quality result while still sticking to AI.The alternative is using something like Nano Banana but quality is shaky and it's not that good at animating.

>>564934787Yes. For some reason he thought it was a good idea to tell entitled gamers who expect live service from one and done games>we will not be updating the game anymoreSome of the reviews that gave a negative review seem to have done so because of that. He shouldve simply said nothing, not updated the game, and left those entitled gamers in the dark and they'd probably have simply not given a negative review or alternatively given a positive review.
>>564880374It wasn't a terrible VS clone but it didn't exactly do anything new. Like yeah there's an equip system but that's been done before. Yeah the level up stats work maybe a bit different but it isn't enough to sell a game. It's "just" good but in a way that's been done at least a dozen times before. >>56488227651 reviews in 2 weeks isn't good. The game is much higher quality than that but because it is a generic VS clone it didn't do any better. Had the devs spent this effort on a different game they probably would have sold way more. Maybe they have a shot at turning it around for 1.0 but I got a hunch that it's not a solodev and those numbers aren't gonna keep the studio running. I have a few ideas what they could have done to stand out but I'm keeping those for my own VS clone.

>>564882829>>564889892If we set aside the problem of scope and maintaining a service, I think it makes far more sense to make a co-op game that has offline singleplayer. Co-op RPGs are getting very few games per year if we're talking about games that aren't open world craft survival flavor of friendslop. What's stopping you from making a Runescape inspired game that's sp&co-op? Black Grimoire was touted by many as a singleplayer Runescape and it did alright.

>>564935085That's some intel to jot down.Beside the lmao I doubt mmo was bug free in just 10 or so days from release
>>564935085did he say that on steam forums or youtube?
>>564936513Maybe but the complaints i saw seem centered on>game is too short>devs announced no future updatesThe latter being very easy to avoid. Just keep your mouth shut and let them believe whatever they want to believe. They'd probably have reviewed the game as follows:>really fun game, can't wait to see future updates!And simply never update the game, those reviewers will likely move after a week or two to some other game and just like that you secured a positive review. Could probably have gotten a 70% rating had this obvious mistake was not made.You know Im not a marketer but the fact I can avoid such obvious blunders I may as well say Im good at gamedev marketing.
>>564890938>Ctesiphon>doesn't even show up in google results>HROT>first result and every result is about the gameLooking through the Steam pages Ctesiphon doesn't have appeal. The text snippet sounds generic and fails to sell the game. The visuals look just fine but they're weirdly saturated at times. The gameplay looks fun but I doubt most people even bothered to watch the trailer. Overall it's a failure to understand what appeals to the boomie shootie crowd.HROT is the opposite. It has immediate appeal to the boomie shootie starting from the screenshots and the description and continuing into the trailer.>>564891950It just happened that nobody made a soviet bloc boomie shootie. When you think about it it's a great setting for one. It could be that he made it in early enough. Someone probably would have made one quite similar to his eventually. Maybe they decided against it because HROT had already come out.>>564912865Ctesiphon trailer genuinely makes the gameplay look more fun but like I brought up above I think most people tuned out before they even watched the trailer.I think Ctesiphon dev would do well if he took the tech in his game and reskinned it into something with more appeal. Don't throw all that work away because it didn't work out the first time.

>>564914963>the majority of people push themselves into any financial venture and drive it straight into the groundI learned this truth while playing WoW. With every material the prices will get stomped by retards who can't math. The example that comes to mind is I was transmuting meta gems, the materials cost me about 120g and I could sell the product for about 200g. For those who don't know, transmuting has a 20 hour cooldown. I sold those at a nice profit for a couple days and then some retards caught on and in 2 days the profit was down to 30g, I looked at the prices and people had randomly undercut each other anywhere from 1g to 10g. And it only got worse from there as more retards thought they could profit and the amount of raw meta gems on the market exceeded the demand you couldn't even be sure you could sell the gem if you transmuted one. TLDR most people don't understand money or the value of anything, not even their own work. That's why you got people who think a $10 game is too much but a $5 coffee every day is fine.
>>564936860I remember puppy games have a similar blunder when they wrote a post "your value 1$", or something.The real lmao move would be to be even more sincere with players and simply say: well shit, now that it's has mixed reviews I won't update it even if I had something planned. Your whining killed momentum".I even dunno how much a player could understand the marketing reason behind it, and if being upfront with "I'll do some bugfixes, but if the game dosen't blow up I'll work on something new after two weeks"

Blog post, ignore.So the other day I did a quick estimate of how long finishing my game would take. I went over the to-do list and added days in my head and tried to overestimate how long everything would take to compensate for the planning fallacy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planning_fallacy). I got 77 days. Then this morning I did it again, not remembering how long my first estimates were but just counting up again. And I got 75 days. Like okay, two estimates come up identical (because 2 days had passed) so maybe it's in the vicinity of accurate? Or maybe I should just 2x it anyway, in which case I'll be finishing my game while trying to cope with whatever menial humiliating minimum wage job I'll be able to get when my money runs out. Which will be in 129 days by my last estimate.I shouldn't be thinking about any of this. Just concentrate on the to-do list instead.

>>564942596At least it's not 2x. But the article on the planning fallacy says it's been shown the fallacy can be significantly counteracted by breaking the tasks into segments and then doing an estimate on each segment and adding them up, which is what I did.What I'm going to do now is pick a mix of tasks that I estimated will take me 2 days in total, and then see how long they'll actually take.

Is there a way to make C# methods treat single value inputs as IEnumerables?I have constructors take a variety of lists but most of the time it's just single values that are passed.Encapsulating a value to be IEnumerable is quick and easy but gets annoying when I need to do it all the time.Overloading the constructor is easy as well but the amount of constructors needed increases exponentially with lists added - and it gets even worse if I want to pass the value on to a base or chained constructor.

Starting this Thursday we will be opening up submissions for our rapid fire section. If you do not have enough content for a trailer, have submitted in years past, or have a previously released game you would like to include on the expo page then this is the section for you. We will be opening up 28 spots split into four rapid fire sections. It is first come first serve. The template for the sections can be found here. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FnSXcSuFWqpPQpYgZng1Vi2fDSYarscZ/view?usp=sharing

It's not even a walkable city but a walkable building. I'd never leave. Just step out of my apartment, go into an elevator, and be inside a shopping mall. Imagine never again having to deal with a bee or an icy sidewalk.

>>564924335Brinkaedea isn't really "schizo", moreso just a mix of themes and gimmicks you'd see in some cartoons and games.>Music>Toys>Food>Drawing/art>Circus elementsAnd lots of colorful, "wacky" stuff so it's the least serious setting (Specially since the setting is that way and there's no bullshit "there's something dark all along" since the idea is to have these colorful settings clash with the more serious or darker ones anyway).(Also no "it's all a dream" bullshit either).A lot of other settings tend to feel more "grounded" in comparison and usually the less "loose" level design but some can still feel loose like Hirdrih (Focused on tech/computer stuff but still meant to feel cute) or Untotern (Darker, elements of horror and different religions/cultures).I think the ideal closest to a "schizo" world is the dreamlands of Nortubel given they're meant to be weird in a dream-like way, which I even thought before hearding the Liminal Spaces meme.
>>564948939Look up the "params" keyword.You can use it as suchFunction(params int[] list){}It allows for any number of parameters from 0 to infinite. So you can pass either Function(4) or Function(4, 5).

>>564951673I'm not sure if it's a case of it can't be taught or simply that nobody who could is willing to teach it. All these "game design" channels might think they are doing it but I don't think their video content teaches much of anything. They certainly don't go into the practical, it's all very vague idea level stuff.It is very much a case of make shit until you figure it out or fail and give up. Most dev wannabes give up. Some of them do so aftey release a shit game and it flops but most don't even get that far.

>>564954328Lol I finally got into game dev after saying I would for so many years. I finally come back to this website for the first time this decade and it is just misery in here. Was hoping to maybe hop in a vc or something and just shoot the shit while working or just do some light-hearted shitposting but good lord its over. Guess I will have to keep talking to the dumbass teenaged and young 20s kids I know making roblox games. Also these captchas are annoying as fuck now LOL guess thats one way to turn this site into a money maker

>>564955087Hey, if you want real life gamedev connections, there are coworking places all over the globe, mainly in cities.That usually requires you to live nearby, though. The only coworking+coliving place I know of is Spelkollektivet.Otherwise you're gonna be trapped on discords and w/e. They're unfortunately a lot less genuine than a 4chan thread but the threads have been a bit stale lately. I still come to post progress sometimes though.
>>564954328

>>564955263I actually went to one of those but it was not so great, however there was one absolute fucking hero there who made it worth it. He was some 36 year old pakistani second generation immigrant guy who quit his blue collar job to make games.He brought his laptop so I playtested his game and had a great time. He didn't even know about version control. Was just rawdogging it for 5 months in unity. Everyone else there was really weird though lmao. I'd be fine with being trapped in discords but I can't even really find any.
idk how zoomers can put up with videos.It's way faster to just check a few references on github.
>>564955460i aint installing no spyware of yours nigga
>>564955635
it's wild looking at the dev time for some indie games. i think it's the lack of work ethic. you're telling me zeroranger is a 10 years in development game?
>>564955460>simulate ad clicks to give your enemies moneyno thanks
>>564955546>I actually went to one of those but it was not so greatWhere was this at?I found out my hometown has a co-devving space for gamedevs at the university but it doesn't feel worth it to me to bike all the way there every day and back again. If it doesn't have living space it's just a hassle.
>>564956316I'd rather not say exact location or country etc. but it was university-related. A lot of people there just didn't seem very passionate and also kind of larping. I honestly would like to just find an online space or discord server where I could just hang out and chat. I'm kind of going crazy grinding away on this game (my wife works) listening to the same podcasts and other background noise I have a 100 times before. How do people even make friends online anymore?
there seems to be a type of knowledge that you cannot teach through words. e.g. how do you explain someone how to move your eyes? you cannot teach someone to use their eye muscles. it's intuitive knowledge that is defined by dna or experience.the same with teaching someone how to draw. you can communicate some techniques, but you cannot communicate how to exactly move your arms and hands. actually i did some woodwork once and the teacher basically grabbed my hand and forced it to make a specific movement. and that moment completely changed how i worked afterwards. suddenly i was faster, less scared, more accurate and much more confident. because he couldn't teach me that with words, but i could feel like how he'd do it and it changed everything.i guess that's exactly the problem with online education. you don't really have role models online, you don't really have first-hand experience being around someone who's good at it. you only have all those abstract thoughts and ideas and tips. that's why "overthinking" is so big nowadays, because people try to learn that woodworking movement through thoughts, when in reality it'd only take like 10 seconds to teach it, when a pro is just standing next to you and "forcing your body to do the right movement".
>>564955087A revival of the thread is in progress.In short some touchy people got very butthurt and migrated to a discord. Years later that discord is an hugbox where you can't say anything negative anymore, and the thread is left to schizos on the outside.Recently though, this hugbox seems to have become even more restrictive, so people are coming back to post here.My genuine advice if you are just starting, is to join multiple communities and make friends with like minded people. Create your own little circle where to share feedback. Don't be chained to just one discord, this or any other thread.
Convince me to not use AI in my workflow
>>564956716Besides my old friend groups I kinda find friends in art groups. If you're drawing for a game you kinda already qualify.And, yes, I saw that at a convention, 50% of the people there are just university kids looking for jobs without much to say for themselves.The thing about a coliving-coworking place however is that, it's usually situated in the middle of nowhere instead of somewhere like a university town, so the only people who have an incentive to stay are those who are genuinely working on something online. Because it's in the middle of nowhere.They tried to set up one in Portugal but the local government decided to veto it. They've tried to set it up in other countries as well but it's really damn hard to run a gamedev hotel when gamedevs are fucking broke ass bitches.
>>564955730I wasn't familiar with that game, but seeing just how deep it is, yeah, I can see a solo dev with a real job making that over 10 years.
>>564956832Look at AI posts in these threads and ask yourself if you want to be the same as those posters. Look how often they post progress or release games and ask yourself if you want that to be you, too.
>>564956832AI makes you dumb and reliant on AI forevermore.
>>564955730If you could have made the same game in less time why didn't you do it?
>>564940374how can steamjeets cope about this? gabencunt can block sales to your game and nuke your discussion forum for any reason at any time.
>>564956946It's funny, when I was young I felt so insecure with my place in the world and where I was going. Now that I'm 27 and have my life decently together, uprooting everything and moving to a place like that sounds amazing.My old friend groups just want to be miserable doomers all day (slightly understandable with the state of the world, but still) or play marvel rivals and league of legends every waking moment they spend not at a job.I guess I'll just have to go forward and actively try to make some friends lmao.

>>564957817I kinda agree.What's really lacking is new people in need of help, that come to ask code/implementation questions. When I started, this place was very newbe friendly
really thinking of getting s&box and just testing out experimental prototypes with it
>>564957384>Now that I'm 27 and have my life decently togetherI did too at that age. Then it all started going downhill
/v/soys be saying that garycunt's sampersand box is dead on arrival, but maybe garycunt made the right call in pivoting to gamedevs? judging by >>564958079considering that gamedev numbers are gonna increase as more retards try gamedev as a way to escape poverty, imagine how many billions garycunt could earn on them.
>>564958065why would anyone help pedophile agdg?
>>564958063make games inspired by your environmentyou know it better than anyone>>564957384I think the other thing about coliving spaces is because you have to pay rent, it weeds out people who aren't serious about itIt's still not 100% guaranteed everyone's gonna be yesdev. Government education schemes like Erasmus can lead to clueless young'uns just like how at university I didn't really put effort in. It's only once I started gamedev I actually started doing something for myself and working hard.But, yeah, I recommend Spelkollektivet, I've been there before, even met an old /agdg/er there. I won't specify who.There's also plans to open up something similar in Latvia, but that's still applying for funding. I'm hoping there'll be more places in the future because this kind of place is rare and it'd be nice to have somewhere closer to my family.

>>564921203yep, we only need one, and then another one in a few years, another one again...Spellmasions dev did a marketing campaign 3 years after launch, selling 40k more copies, though. If you got a good game that isn't selling, i really think it is a marketing problem. spellmasons dev is so based, i hope his autobattler slop makes him more money so he can go all in on tactics games.>>564958984>baseding out for twitter engagement. kek the replies all agreeingi think a solodev with an art team can still call themselves a solo dev. art team can mean anything, from commissioned assetts to people equally as invested as the solo dev. if its the latter, then yea they got a point.the only people worse than gamers are gamedevs
I should call myself a game AUTEURIt's my game, I took all the risks and financed everything. I'm going to credit everyone, but my name is going to be 70x bigger then that of the next highest contributor (a w*man)
>>564958984I'm a "solodev with an artist team"and by artist team, I mean there's been like 12 different artists I've had to wrangle, they take a year to produce something and they've usually contributed 1 or 2 things each.I work on this full time, every day. They work on it when a major astrological event occurs.The reason I don't make everything myself is because I want to speed along development and if I just take the income then I'm gonna be taxed on it anyway, might as well re-invest it.The game includes everyone who has contributed in the credits.
The last game I played for real was TOTK on launch

>>564959802>hire mentally unstable artists from tumblr instead of industry pros
>>564959802It's because the people who get into art get into it not to treat it like a job, but more as a hobby.I'm hiring people who are commission artists / hobbyists. They're not professional, I'm not hiring them full time. I don't expect them to be professional. And they're not.But they give much better results than a corporate slave.

>>564960497>I can't even imagine how much of a hassle it would be running a place like that. You'd have to hire someone to keep the place clean or people would eventually start fighting over it.Upkeep is an issue considering the funding thing. If you let people stay for free in return for cleaning, it can help, but that has other issues (it doesn't count as work for certain government schemes like pension and such)As for fighting over it ... It can happen, but once you've set roots down and have a community, they'll be able to work it out. It's most fragile early on but the further along you go, the more people are willing to go out of their way to ensure the place's survival.Especially if people move into town just to be there. At that point, they're invested and can't let it all just disappear.The biggest issue ends up being marketing and funding. How do you find such a specific audience? Just word of mouth? How do you get funding?Actually, the Portuguese place got EU funding if I recall right, I don't know why the local government fucked it over though.

I even had some small kids try to sell me flowers once and I asked if they spoke English and they did. It's rarely an issuethere's a weekly event for playtesting and a weekly event for what's effectively real life progress posting. Sometimes there are game jams.uhhI dunno, that's pretty much it.
