Vn are not games
Starting to think all the faggots that spend 7 years making an indie game did shit like make all the assets from scratch like 10 times, or remade the game 5 times from scratch, or made their own engine, or worked 1 hour per week on the project.
>>564967157Yes, research and development is always the most time consuming and expensive part
I was thinking about working on a narrative-focused game for once, but IDK what I'd write about. The only things that come to mind are either my fetishes or political views, neither of which would be allowed on any major western storefront.
>>564967157you spent 15 years doing nothing

i awoke from my nap. yaaawn god i slept hard. already committed to github today. now i have mental health group to go to with my friends
dead thread dead general. I guess everybody figured out there's no point being a gamedev when even free AI is superior to best human effort.

>watch a podcast with an old guy who spent his whole life with neuroscience/psychiatry/psychology>they talk about an example where a guy was doing a trip to raw nature and being really overwhelmed with the situation>first thing he learned was to make fire, which he failed at several times and was very frustrated about (the flint even burned his hands)>being able to make fire did something in his brain, making him feel like "if i can make fire, i also can do everything else">basically one win completely affected his attitude to everything else he approached, knowing that it's possible to do iti wonder if that's why "starting small" works well when you have completely given up. you need a "win". there's a similar scene in "Lost" where hugo finds this old van in the forest and nobody cares, but he convinces others to help him because "we had so many losses recently, we really need a win now". basically he noticed that the morale is very low and that fixing the van was the best way to bring morale back.it probably also explains why having success at your job makes you more attractive for women. you emit a certain confidence because of success. you basically didn't improve your skill with women at all, yet you improved something else and the confidence affects every other aspect of your life.maybe that's the reason why nobody can build the discipline to keep working on something they fail at. because the brain can't handle too much failure. you gotta design a process where you have small wins all the time.i guess people flee into playing video games again, because in games you have a lot of wins, a lot of competency-improving situations etc. - and this heavily relaxes the brain.

>>564976374Yes, I've trained and coached people that are sometimes confused when I say that you need to succeed in order to learn something. And it's literally that simple, by continuous wins and eventually excelling (top 1% at something) you build up the confidence to face your doubts learning other skills. It's part of the reason it's often said to walk one path is to walk many because the obstacles on the way to mastery are always the same.

i feel bad for rhadamant. he's a chill youtuber, he is honest and sticks to his favorite games (hard survival games on high difficulty), yet he just doesn't have any new games to cover. his channel is slowly dying because there just aren't any new worthwhile games in the genre.it really shows how much youtubers depend on gamedevs.recently he's playing a lot of vintage story, but to be honest it doesn't really hit the same spot as e.g. hardmode rimworld or hardmode zomboid.

sarcasm and meme'ing is the escape of the loser who.being serious makes you vulnerable to being ashamed of failure, while being a clown is a nice protection from being ashamed. if someone tells you that you are shit you just say "yeah iam a clown, i'm supposed to be dumb". the thing is though, a clown will never becoming a multi-millionaire. (unless maybe it's a really serious clown)in music i always noticed something similar. where people make dumb covers of popular songs or intentionally sing them poorly. because they think it's funny and being funny is their only way to get attention.in germany i'd call it drachenlord-complex.

>>564966804None of those character's expressions match their dialogue boxes and it bothers me.

There really is nothing harder than just sitting down and actually making yourself work. A few months ago I felt like I was getting something done almost every day, but recently I've felt relieved if I manage to even get something meaningful done a week. I wish I had a better work ethic.

>>564977187The topic was what to do with our twitter accounts, someone made a sensible reply which sounds too much like marketing knowledge which reminds the neverdev of zukowski which sends him into a rage about jeets. His belief is that everyone who knows how to actually succeed at things like marketing or using the internet for something besides shitposting must be a hustle maxxing pajeet from India.
i always fantasize how good kenshi and zomboid would be if they had used unity.zomboid b42 crashes so much, also the performance of java can't hold up with burst-compiled code in unity or linking a C dll to call it from C#. also the UI sucks in those games, because their ui frameworks are horrible.the problem is you can't just easily rebuild those games without years of work. so they are stuck in a shitty engine. and the devs don't seem to have very high energy anymore, it almost feels like they retired.kinda sad desu...

What I thought was actually ADHD.Turns out it's actually a gigantic spiritual issue. After years of hoping and working, the fire is finally dwindling. I must turn to God now. After all, he is the one who brought me this far.

>>564978954The neverdev is not a conscious person. If you made eye contact with them in the grocery store it would probably ruin your morning. In the Bible this is referred to as the Wheat and the Tares. They might seem like people, but they're not. They're innately bad and nasty in a way that you probably can't imagine, because you're a gamedev and game devs who make games have souls.
>>564971296How do you code for so long? Is it actually productive and not just running back and forth fiddling with values? How fast is your games development with such high hours, I can't even get 4 hours a day.

>>564979231i just beat mario sunshine after being hardstuck on some levels as a kid today mario sunshine is an ungodly level of difficulty i dont understand how they thought they were making a kids gamei guess to crank up the difficulty is the best way because the game "felt" bigger even though i think it's a 10/10 its completely rife with really bad game design like the bowser boss battle is the only fucking place in the whole game where u use the rocket jump ground pound basically
how do you know someone is an enginedev?don't worry, they'll tell you how they rendered a vulkan triangle and how they stopped enginedev afterwards.
>>564966804added "correcting" slices that would result in pieces too small by instead cutting perfectly in the center.I tried doing a bunch of math with transforms to find the center of the object and slice it but that was too difficult so I just created a another "slicer" node that looks at the current enemy and when the normal slicer fails I use the "fixed" slicer nodeunfortunately Im detecting if the two pieces are too small by their bounding box volume which as you can see by the regular collisions aren't exactly perfect, so it only really kinda works on large objects and makes slicing small objects a painnnnnnnnn

>>564979739That's tragic
i don't want to make new games. i want to improve games i like. but i don't want to mod them, i want to improve the whole engine code those games are running on. i want to rework their performance, their ui and add new features here and there.what i hate about having my own ideas is how it always leads to the same problem as in art, where it just becomes ridiculous nonsense trying to be original. i don't even feel a need for new ideas. i just need existing games to improve.
>>564979465>How do you code for so long?I have no other real hobbies. >Is it actually productive and not just running back and forth fiddling with values? Most of the time I am either expanding or refactoring the architecture of my code. I like rigid structures and communication pipelines, so there is quite a lot of overhead that I have to implement. Once it comes together though, it feels very satisfying.>How fast is your games development with such high hoursI don't like that question because the effort you put in very rarely translates into proportionally demonstrable output that you can show to a normal person.A normal person doesn't care that you've spent 2 hours chasing for a bug that was fixed in 2 minutes.

>>564980818You probably have the talent and legitimate skill required to build the games AA want to build but publishers and money people hate people like you. It's unfortunate
is there a youtube channel that analyzes games from a gamedev perspective?like just opening games, playing it and then talking about "how does climbing this ladder work?", "how does jumping over this fence works?", "how does the combat calculations work here?", "how was that animation made?", "why does this sound play at this moment?" - and on top of that even suggesting improvements.i don't mean gamers making analysis videos where they basically write an essay and pretend to know how to make games, where everybody agrees and everybody in the comments thinks they are smart.

>>564981091Kevin Jordan used to make videos kind of like that for game design, Day9 has gone off the deep end but sometimes he talks about how mechanically things work at a base level and the math behind it but it's hidden in 100h of slop.For what you're after it's channels like these but they obviously aren't proven and this type of content takes a long time to produce so it's not very good for growing channelshttps://www.youtube.com/@mixandjamhttps://www.youtube.com/@Madalaski
>>564980939you can kill fomo from your life by realizing that you can't do everything and that everything you do excludes everything else. wanting things that conflict with each other is a common problem why people give up on life.e.g. you can't be the lone wanderer exploring the world and at the same time be cozy in the middle of the sheep herd where it's warm and everybody stays close to each other.to get more freedom you have to be more lonely, to be less lonely you have to have less freedom.it's usually when you want both things when you really have a hard time, because you will never have both. you need to understand who you are and what are the consequences of what you want, and that it's normal for those consequences to happen. e.g. understand this it is normal to be lonely if you don't like walking with the herd. or that it's harder to find a partner when you want someone you can actually talk to and not just fuck. e.g. being superficial makes it easier to socialize, yet it makes it harder to have deep connection.you don't drive a racing car on farmland. you optimize your vehicle for the farmland by sacrificing speed and agility.that's why i keep saying that identity is more important than skill. cause identity means consistency.

>>564980732Start making ports of old games and then improve them. Like DevilutionX. >>564981091Not really that I'm aware of. There's only those poser channels like game makers toolkit that say a lot but nothing that's really useful. It's funny that he stopped making videos after he started making games. It's like he realized how full of shit he was and now can't make them out of embarrassment.
>>564979739O_O this hits a lot of the marks in what I've wanted to make. The only ideas even close to this are extremely length developmemt times and I get the feeling this game is too. I suspect the dev abandoned this game due to the amount of content it would need. Every single game that is even similar to what I have in mind has been in development for many years. I can't justify working on such a game without already being rich enough to not worry about money.

i feel like people are right that gamedev isn't always fun and therefore fun is a bad motivator. but i also think that fun is the only reason to actually keep doing something, even when it's hard. cause if something was never fun at all, then what's even the point?so i'd say it's fun AND discipline and not only discipline.that's like saying you don't need to enjoy time with your loved one, you only gotta push through it and stay loyal no matter what, which is a weird approach to relationships. you should enjoy the person, but also not immediately run away when there's some struggle.actually something (or someone) being fun to be around is the whole reason that discipline/loyalty has any value, otherwise it becomes ideologically. where you just do it because your ideology requires it and not because it has value.

Games should be priced by file size. For example, a game that is 20 gigabytes shouldn't cost more than $20.
i mean, you could literally make a game about cuddling with 20 year old version of ariana grande (enough video material exists for reference). nobody is gonna stop you. yet nobody does.basically just imagine what you want. imagine a wish you'd tell your genie. that's what you want. and that's what games should do, giving you a fantasy version of what you want. if games don't do that, what is even the point?i mean this very seriously. it's literally why i play none of the 30k games released per year.i mean, 30k games, yet in none of them i can cuddle with 20 year old ariana grande. why?

>>564984749Their art has always been dogshit, the retro windows style is something they should have been using since the start. Maybe they would have made a fun game by now.
I hope Marnix and Co ignore updating the game beyond bug fixes and move onto that new game they were mentioning. That new game looks like it has better potential than MMO98. I doubt turning MMO98 around now is too late I doubt thisbis the kinda game that has an audience sticking around like No Man's Sky.
is it just me or are the devs at biteme games treating the entire thing like a get rich quick scheme? it seems that they have 0 passion in the projects they work on
Marnix should increase the price of the game $1 for every week the game is not at a positive rating, the most desperate to play it, surely they will buy it when it's at $200 a copy

>>564985478You either make it or you get back in that wagecage. You think most people have the time to deal with devving after work in their 30s? Maybe if you're single. Not much point in doing it for fun if your game is going to get ignored.

i wonder if people seriously think too much competition is a problem or if they really just think they aren't good enough to compete with others. cause i personally can't even make what i envision, therefore why would i complain about competition? it's not like i have this extreme confidence those people seem to have, where they believe that it's not about the quality of their product, but about there being too much competition.actually even when i made money (with something else creative) i always felt like a fraud and thought all my stuff is shit. i never thought it's a competition problem, i always was just frustrated that i can't improve further, that i don't know why my stuff isn't as good as others. or if i was hardstuck with motivation/discipline i was frustrated about not being better at psychology.the only way i'd ever complain about competition would be when i see absolutely no problem with my work and would love it to death. but that never happened to me in my entire life.i mean how would less competition help me producing better results?

>>564986453>The "Asset Flip" Philosophy>BiteMe's Goal: They seem content with "Micro-Hits". If they can make 5 games in the time it takes McMillen to make one, and each of those 5 games makes enough to fund the next 6 months of life in Osaka, they consider that a win.
Need opinions of my idea.I want to make an autobattler RTS where is like DF adventure mode, but the npcs have their own weekly and daily routines.Basically you don't control directly the MC, but can give him orders like DF.I want an island map, and have the npcs doing stuff with a mixture of Aoe 2 peasant mechanics and SIMS and gnomoria.But my core idea is basically pokemon, but you're the only male on the world, but you can capture all the females npcs and villain and monsters into your own ball girl harem.But beyond that, dunno what else to add to my core idea.Maybe add a basic top down pokemon arceus combat
odds: play gaem for inspirationeven: continuing working on my uninspired gaem
the process you are going through is expectation adjustment. you thought this would be a fun thing to do and on top of that also a golden cow. with high expectations like this it was inevitable that the expectation adjustment phase would come very soon.you never really know if something is for you until you approach it with realistic expectations (which often only happens once you spend some time doing it).
what's up with the bot posts?
the best art is created by naive, happy people. disillusioned people create nothing but slop optimized for money (cynicism) or depressive content to complain about the world (self-loathing).

>>564979231These people operate on a bastardized version of Confucius's teachings(Japan, South Korea) and Protestant rhetoric(USA).They don't believe in the spiritual, fortune, miracles, or that creativity is a gift from God.

>>564986949"To me, continual improvement through facing challenges is what it means to be alive. Abandoning growth for momentum isn't my idea of a stimulating life, much less an enjoyable one. Always challenge yourself and make mistakes. Sure, you'll experience lows at times, but you can always recover, especially when you're young. Your energy, strength and youth ensures that you'll get back on your feet.Not that getting older means you can't make mistakes. The point is to not only make mistakes while you're young, but rather to start making them.I want to keep on challenging myself and making mistakes. I hope to keep identifying my faults far into the future. I never look to repeat my mistakes and don't enjoy the lapses themselves, but I never want to fear making them.Starting your missteps from an early age is good for that. Our responsabilities increase with age, and with more responsability comes concerns that we are one bad mistake away from losing it all. Fear of failure grows from such concerns. Get in the habit of making adjustments early on however, and that process of trial and error becomes second nature, it ceases to bother you so much.There's no need to set yourself up for failure, and you don't need to fail every time out, the important thing is to know that we learn from our mistakes and that we can only learn certain things by doing them and making those mistakes.Those who have hit rock bottom and recovered have a different look, you can see the power in their eyes and you can feel their conviction." - Daigo 'The Beast' Umehara, The Will to Keep Winning
>>564988206okay, but it's not a sin to care about money.if all you want to do is to make games, then...make sure the game is able to sell. What do you want them to say?

Added some stuff, then I realized I was a retard months ago by accidentally having the wrong ID in a certain space for defintions, so I fixed it.
>>564991595Megascans and ultra high fidelity content packs just end up hurting up and coming developers who aren't ready to make those types of games. The higher fidelity game you have the higher the expectations are, if they wanted more devs the sensible thing would be to release ready made low poly slop art with LOD meshes and what not. But it doesn't support their AI fueled empire and collusion with AMD/NVIDIA so they will never do it, it would also take more effort than just scanning real world environments as terrain pieces.
>>564991595Unreal is holding them back because it is a shit tier engine. You have to hate yourself to use Unreal.

I might if Gabe offers me a deal where they only get a 10% royalty in perpetuity bypassing the 30% rate. You might be wondering why 10%, well that's cause 10% is probably the same as having my own website and having to pay a payment provider to handle the transactions. If enough fanboys cry for Steam inclusion I could publicly announce said 10% offer, if Gabe rejects it, then the majority of hold outs might actually come and buy the game off my own website.

>>564993374I'm not as familiar with China's philosophical landscape and am not sure that it carries the same problem as S. Korea and Japan, that is, the idea that hard labor is a principle virtue in and of itself. I suspect that communism created a different blend of the belief, where by they have to lie about how their recent economic success is due to socialism and not their free-economic zones, but that's a different discussion. SK and Japan are obvious examples because you only have to look at how grindy their Gacha games and MMOs are(WORK HARD) or their 'live to work' mentality that's survived despite rapid shifts in spiritual beliefs and economic models.Anyway, the point is that trying to compel yourself to 'work hard' is backwards and incomplete. In fact, I think that by working less or removing your thoughts/beliefs about being ashamed you're not working harder would help you find success faster.Everyone always wants to ADD things. More process(workflows), more hours, more marketing, more supplements, more tools, more research, etc. But really, a bad behavior or thought causes 4x the loss then a positive behavior/thought gains. Sometimes it's clear cut: like with synthetic foods or drugs(universally bad), but other times you have to think about it, like playing vidya might hurt your creativity or numb your drive, but maybe trying out a new game will reveal something to you that will be invaluable, I mean, why would you develop games if you didn't believe they were worthwhile on some level?

The money could provide a nice house, infinite shopping and fancy vacations but all of those are paired with an unattractive sperg of a man. Not a lot of women would go for that.This doesn't even begin to cover the possibility of women approaching him maliciously trying to cry rape or whatever and take him to court for a payday. He's a prime target for one of those.

i thought about why to do something, i came up with 3 reasonsa) you are naturally good at something and it's worth improving on itb) you actually really enjoy doing somethingc) you want to make something that doesn't exist and nobody else is doing iti think someone who isn't naturally good at gamedev, isn't enjoying it and also doesn't have an idea what they even want to make, basically where all 3 reasons are absent, why do those devs even do gamedev? it's beyond me.i think the only reasonable answer is that they think of it as a get rich quick scheme. or get rich easy scheme.

>>565007007>no such thinglol, you probably never met people who have complete meltdowns when using computers. ofc there's no genetic disposition for gamedev, but for logic, creativity, frustration tolerance, understanding complex systems etc.well, this is 101 imposter syndrome. thinking that just because you are able to do something, everybody else is.i mean there is even high tier mathematicians who completely suck at programming and couldn't really become good at it.you didn't slip into programming by accident. something about it resonated with your brain.

people make fun of people who work all their life so they can retire at 65 when its too late to enjoy life and basically they wasted their whole life.and then they start working on something that probably takes 30-40 years to see any success. basically meaning they'll work hard until they become a millionaire at 65 and can retire.the irony lmao. if you wanna dab on wagies then pls make giga iq moves to get rich before age 30, otherwise stop dabbing on wagies lol.

there should be a website where devs can post their abandoned projects and people can write comments on it, just to see if the project would have had a fanbase.
>>565008491it's called itch.io

i basically just try to survive/not suicide until UBI becomes a thing or some other global crisis happens where normies have to start fixing the system instead of trying to join the upper levels of the sinking titanic.it's actually a good think if ai replaces jobs, because people with a job have 0 empathy for jobless people.best example was the "they took our jobs" meme in southpark. where everybody was shitting on normal workers calling them inbred white trash.and now the same people complain about ai replacing their jobs.the only way to cure peoples arrogance is by making them suffer the same things you suffer from.expecting me to make a video game is actually ridicolous, not even pros can do that without a big budget and 100 co-workers lmao.
what's the advantage of a game engine versus using raylib + Nim?

>>565009334>until UBI becomes a thingwhen will you guys understand that this will never happenthis is a stupid myth like perpetual energy or dyson spheres
>>565009763i dont care what you retard think, you probably also thought that ai will never happen.
everything i've devved so far has been extremely easy. the physics stuff i was studying before when everyone made fun of me makes this all seem pathetic.

>>565010081>>565010368>ai will never happen>ai would be so powerfulIf AI is so good, why haven't you made a game yet?
>>565010679If the human brain is so good, why haven't you made a game yet?

I had another Eric dream.I was invited to one of his mansions, the PAWG from Just Josh (tech channel on yt) was giving me a tour.I was able to convince her to let me visit him in his office/workspace.I asked him what laptop he uses.He said he doesn't use one, and then pulled out what looked like a Razer smartphone (Razer doesn't make these anymore).He then said he uses his smartphone with a VR headset (that he also showed me) to work while away from his PC/desktop.Obviously not true IRL.>>564980939>eric barone doesn't have kidsHis wife, Amber, is barren.In one of my dreams, they adopted two Africans (feels bad man).

>>564988482I should have done that at the start several times. It's too late, I'd rather finish this game first before considering this.
>>565007793That doesn't have anything to do with Steam but with tools becoming more accessible which began with Torque engine in the late 2000s and predates Unity and Unreal being free.
>>565007816I don't care about retiring. I want to work on gaems forever like my hero Kojimbo

>>565012539what the fuck, you guys actually dont make games? and you guys are BRAGGING ABOUT IT? >>565009334i honestly thought this was going to be a gay speech about how making a game was you rebelling against society's expectations, and i would s*y clap over our delusions, but it was even somehow worse.i thought it was just a meme to call each other nodevs kek
>>565013196your hero is a hollywitz cocksuckerlike literally has sucked jewish cock
I wanna play my game natively on my Retroid Pocket but I hate mobile games and want mobile gamers to die. Is there a market for PC games that have sideloaded android ports?

>>565013285It's just a moment of clarity that neverdevs go through where they finally admit sometimes out loud that they will never make a game, they know they can't or don't have the determination and they admit it. This is temporary though and they soon go back to pipedreaming about making games or basically pretending that they are a gamedev because they plan to try again someday, usually with some other excuse like they're waiting for AI models to improve or their idea is going to be stolen if they work on it too soon or something else. They are insane, like anyone else who would insist on staying around a hobby that they literally can't do. It drives them insane and they end up taking it out on everyone around them, i.e. 4chan and agdg.
>>565015379every platform had slop, idk why people are pretending otherwise.
>>565016001>posting anything AI related is ruining /agdg/?Nobody cares about that, why don't you post something gamedev related? You can't even do that. You just spam some cringe AI generated slop that is arguably about gamedev but has zero information, nothing of value. Pure slop. That's all you will ever do is make slop posts that are worth nothing to gamedevs. You will never make a videogame.

>>565016742Doom was an indie gameThere was an entire shareware thing going on for years
>>565016001Friendly reminder that many bocchisis are actual AI chads who use AI as a tool to assist in making video games instead of AI cultists who worship AI as an unfathomable external force which will one day descend from the heavens to fix your miserable, pathetic, loser life.

>>565017202BLOODY BASTARD BITCH
>>565016975>>565017193tactical trvke honestly. AI should be cordoned off to backend systems, prototyping and conceptualization. shipping a game with sloppa art is like making a burger and not melting the cheese onto the patty. sure it's a burger but it sucks.

>>565013869I'm about to reach my breaking point with my own delusions about the intrinsic value of making a video game. I'm just a bum trying to make a game so I don't have to work again. This is nothing about "doing my own thing, f society", it's just that I dont want a real career job. I'll fail and in a couple years i'll throw in the towel and grow up, or I'll make it in the 0.000001% i do. Also, I do find gamedev meaningful to me as an art form, so that helps.>>565016051kek. this could be me, just that I haven't reached that breaking point. For now, I'm just going to keep devving and making progress on my game every day.
AI chad raped me because i wanted to post bochi erp in the amateur gamedev general instead of amateur gamedev....

>>565027504Programming is the game's gameplay. Its literally the most critical aspect of the game.Take Doom. Now replace the art - its still doom. Change the programming and keep the art and it could be anything. Is Doom RPG still Doom?
>>565027706I mean really though who you are to say that?
>>565027504
>>565027726Programming is how you put the game design into reality.It's like saying "This pencil is what makes the art, not my mind and vision"
>>565027937>The vision is what matters not the act of bringing it into reality That is a pro AI art argument though?
>>565027726>Now replace the art - its still doom.super noahs ark or that sonic kart racer
>>565028091First was Wolf3d second replaced the game's code and art.
>>565028065AI art is not the case because the reason WHY it's "Art" is because it was made by a person.Programming is no such thing and never will be such a thing.

heavily complementing paying for some fan service content.
>>565029306People will cope and say voice acting is a skill you can train but that's just not true. In reality most big actors from the silent era didn't make it into the sound era because they didn't have the voices for it. Either they had voices that were too high pitched or they had unflattering accents.

>>565030465Practicing is important like practicing to play an instrument is important but if you don't have the instrument and can never have the instrument training doesn't matter. Many people physically are unable to do that and teachers will tell you early on if it isn't for you.

when you see someone from /agdg/ in another part of 4chan, it is a level of brotherhood and camraderie that is unmatched on the internet nowadays.
>I would make a game but I'm an AI CHAD who would use AI and that's not allowed so really society is the one keeping me from making gamesBut a Chad would actually just make the game and use AI. Because it is allowed. It's literally allowed and actual chads have already released successful games with AI. The AI "chad" is in fact a scared little conformist beta bitch who also couldn't make a game even if the world loved AI slop and begged him to serve up some slop.
What can I even do now?

You know I used to think that "pedos are ruining the thread" was just a troll narrative but now considering that the same type of poster who complains about things only complains about AI and not the pedophiles and other anime adjacent shitposters it makes me think...
>>565031143me when I see mongol on ic
is it normal if i let my friend play my game and it inspires him to make a similar game in the same genre with the mechanics from my game that impressed him?it feels weird cause now it feels like im competing against someone who was supposed to support my journey feelsbadman..my game mechanic was very unique and probably the selling point of my game...i know ideas are cheap and hooks are overrated but it feels like a betrayal in some way...i wish he just took my girl rather than my game...i can always get another girl....
>>565016001>>565031331The pedos used to be the most annoying. Now you are. And you have remained the most annoying for 3 years. Congratulations. I mean think about it, many of the loli posters have actually made games. You have never made a videogame and never will. You will always be worse.

>>565031449>he can't get another gameNGMI
>>565031610It's pretty obvioust that you only complain about googum or whoever you think is fygoon/joshua and that you are a pedophile since you never complain about them shitting up the thread, it's very obvious btw. I don't like AI either but I post it just to piss you off.
>>565031721im not gonna get another game just cause someone took it. im going to finish this one. just sucks, because this was my favorite concept/most fun to make. i cant help but feel married to it in some way even if it doesnt work out.i'll find more ideas in the future, but i'm very picky about games i decide to create. i only like making medium sized games, these take me 1-2 years to finish.
>>565032005Yeah so like I was saying, you have never made a videogame and you never will. You're literally only here to spite everyone who tells you to either make a game or leave. You will never move on. You are the neverdev forever.

>>565040852that's the idea. i have a dev board to do it with.the big issue is that the display resolution is 128x128 pixels (the full display cycle is 256x256 pixelclock ticks), and i don't know of any displays that have that particular resolution, so i'm probably going to have to adapt the design to something like actual VGA (and not my made up VGA).anyway, i'd actually like to realize this with, say, TTL logic so people can build it without an FPGA and understand how tile-based graphic hardware works. the design i have is somewhere in power between an NES and SNES, closer to the latter with some added and missing features. i'm considering putting together a kickstarter campaign.the real ultimate goal is to also design an audio circuit, gamepad circuit, dma/hdma circuit, and pair it with a cpu to have a full blown new console to mess around with.

>>565042613yeah, i programmed it as an in-browser application so i could show it off online.it has a lot of features that allow one to examine the state of the digital logic as it runs. you can set break points to stop the emulator at particular xy coordinates, step through one clock tick at a time, or just run it as fast as possible. one can edit the graphics registers and memory. it has scripts that can be triggered to run at particular times in the display cycle, which can poke at the gpu like a cpu is attached to it. it even grabs gamepad input that can be used in the scripts. you can pretty much prototype a (slow) game demo with it at this stage.it's helped me debug the design and i now know it's a good one.i need to take some time to draw up a nice image to load to when first opened in a browser.
This nigga can post pedo porn but God forbid I post about how much I love my gamedev tool (AI), the hypocrisy!
im spending 20-40 dollars a day on tokens. But it is still far cheaper and far more capable then hiring a developer at leasthad to start cooking at home to be able to budget this shit. Gamedev sure is expensive.
>>565035483I'm 26
Treating your game like your child really can be a rabbit hole. It raises so many questions. E.g. do you want your child to be a sexy whore that you can pimp out for money? Or do you want your child to have depth, be funny, flourish etc.? Or do you want your child to be a shallow, depressed chain-smoker nihilistic about life? Do you want your child to be your work slave when you need a pension or do you want to really help your child grow and treat it well so it will help you out when you are old, because of how much you helped your child and it honestly appreciates you?Also do you love your child so much that you'll give your best effort or do you hate your child and hate that you have to take care of it? (Do you hate to work on your game?)I guess someone who just wants to get his game done and retire early is the same type of person who can't wait that their child becomes 18 years old so they can kick it out. Or they'd love to just have a nanny raising the child for them.

>>565027726>Take Doom. Now replace the art - its still doom.More than the exact art, the aesthetic is what matters. Had Doom used some retarded visual style it might have not done so well. Like what it if had bright and colorful clowns as enemies and the player had waterguns and shit. It probably wouldn't be called Doom either. I'd like to bring up a famous example of Diablo. Change the aesthetic and it becomes an entirely different game. At the same time what actually happened during Diablo's development was that they made it real-time instead of turn-based. That massively changed the game and was probably one of the things that made it the hit it was. It literally spawned a new genre.What I'm trying to say is that both sides matter. What doesn't matter is how the code or the art is produced as long as the end result looks appealing and plays well. If gamers can't tell you are using AI for something they don't give a shit.

>>565044845child porn do not open
it doesn't make sense to make a video game unless you figure out some real value of a game. and that can't just be "fun" or "hehe it makes you addicted like cocaine".i think there might be 2 valid values, at least in my personal world view.a) it's cool for children, makes them laugh and have a good time and helps their developmentb) it's good for adults to regulate their mood, to be inspired and to be relaxed after playing. to help them get through tough times. or to help them feeling energized and motivated to keep going.why? because entertainment can only influence one thing: the brain. it can either ruin the brain, or shape it in a positive way. just like music can be lil negro shitting into your brain with degenerate lyrics, or it can be beethoven enlightening your mind with a symphony. it's like the knife analogy, that can be used to cut food or it can be used to cause harm. it's just a tool.i think the reason nobody has the goal to make a game that makes your improve your mind, is because people got so used to slop now. they can't comprehend the idea that a game could improve your mind/mood drastically. it's like being so used to shit food and feeling like shit after eating it, that you can't comprehend the idea that healthy food might exist and that healthy food could drastically change your life by giving you way more energy and way more mental clarity.it's exactly why cuffbust failed. he basically needs to grow up. he feels really cool for saying "gamedev is just a way to make money" and trying to find formulas to make addictive slop. and now his game failed and he lost all motivation to keep working on games. it's because his whole mindset is a downward spiral.it's basically why religion still exists, yet all the slop culture products are forgotten after just 1-2 years.

>>565043065I've built a dvi-d based (hmdi compatible) character mode display attached to a basic risc-v core before, synthesized onto a zynq 7000 FPGA. Extremely satisfying when it works for the first time. Actually building (and testing) a larger digital circuit like that outside an FPGA sounds hellish, how do you plan to do it? Also, are you using logisim to design it?
soul is when a world you build has a combination of mystery, comedy, philosophical themes, action, primal human needs and beauty. it basically has to touch all aspects of human life. from "i need food", to "what's out there in space" to "does god exist?" to "what's the meaning of life" to "how do i make friends" etc. etc.

>>565045603based, glad there are some like minded anons>how do you plan to do it?well, first i actually would implement it on fpga, i have a pic related fpga dev boardthat being said, i know enough about microelectronics that i think i could pull it off. i have electronics equipment at home, and am comfortable with datasheets. i also have a microelectronics friend to ask questions if i get stuck.anyway, when designing the circuit, i was trying to make choices that would simplfy certain implementation details (e.g. using powers of 2 whenever i could) and keep everything at 8 or few bits (save for the vram address space).moreover, my original goal was to make a teletype terminal, but then i kept adding features until i had something approaching a 4th gen console. so i can dial back the design to the bare minimum, or keep adding features until i get the full design. building the complete design purely from TTL chips would probably take 200-300 of them.>Also, are you using logisim to design it?i did, but at this point i've gone as far as i can with it.now i know the logic is sound, i can start moving on to things like kicad to layout a pcb.

>>565007793Replace left with Big Rigs, Tekwars, Crazy Bus and Stargazers, I dare you.
>>565046778If you are not doing so already, you will thank yourself in future for using a hardware description language. There are open tools to synthesize logic gate netlists from it (though I have only developed on FPGAs and thus have no experience with these tools). Iterating on designs is easier and automated testbenches will massively reduce the amount of time spent on tedious processes better handled by a computer at larger scales. I use systemverilog for synthesis with basic dont shoot yourself in the foot constructs e.g. always_comb and convienience features e.g. structs. I think logisim can read from it but not sure.
I've added these "umbilical plugs" that come out of the ground when the walking enemies spawn. It serves as both aesthetic sugar and also shows the player where they will spawn (they kind of poke out a bit before they fully extend).

>>565047115The busty lady looks familiar sauce?
>>565048280yeah, i am well aware that developing using HDL and designing logic by hand are very different experiences.i wanted the option to build the design without an fpga, so i chose to design the logic with gates rather than "program" it.actually, the way i wrote the emulator is very close to how it would be structured in a hardware description language. i think it would only take a few days to port the design because of this.

It's fine to be bald if you want to, but don't make this decision lightly.The boner thing is mostly from fat boomers who wouldn't have got boners anyway and want something to blame for it.I also thought that it wasn't worth it to take meds for 10 years just to have hair at 30 and am now bald. I would probably be alone either way. Those are valid considerations, but don't decide based on the boner issues that most people don't have at all.

Blog post, skip, ignore, disregard, left swipe, tell it it's like a brother to you.I forgot to make veggies yesterday so this morning I ate bread with my chicken. I forgot how tasty bread is. With melted cheese and mayo, it makes even chicken breast tolerable. Then I had 3 bananas and a Red Bull so now I'm feeling ALL FIRED UP! Donuts would've been better but can't have everything.128 days left. I owe 1000 minutes to my game. Yesterday I picked a mix of things from my to-do list, a mix that that I earlier estimated will take me 3 days in total to finish, so now I'm benchmarking how accurate my estimates are. Estimates that say that it'll take me 75 days to clear the entire to-do list and have the game ready for bare bones EA. I'm beginning to suspect that it's not my estimates that are off but that my to-do list is very incomplete. Yesterday I added "make game icon" to it. Then "make screenshots" and "make trailer".

>>565056189>how do you got into gpu design?i learned how to program the snes from the dev manual years and years ago, and have made lots of little games for it.i also know computer architecture from having a cs background.and i've always wondered what the digital logic of tile-based vidya consoles looked like.i wanted to build a teletype terminal, and realized there isn't a lot of info on how to go about designing a tile-based gpu.so i worked out the most simple design (something that draws characters to a grid that covers a screen).however, it really doesn't take much to do that, so i started adding on features (e.g. scrolling).using the snes as inspiration, i just kinda worked out how most of the functionality must be implemented.i'm only missing a handful of snes capabilities at this point (per-character scroll offset and mode 7).the only real hint i needed was a vague notion of how the nes's scanline timing worked (see pic related).i want to document the design and then try building it.in addition, i want to design an audio circuit and a couple of other support circuits to make a full on new console people can build.
