It would be cool to have another streamer play demoday stuff.
Progress Anchor. Feel free to reply to this post with DD links if you've submitted too.
>>565526387You don't seem to understand.I could get zero players, and you know what ? I probably will. But if I'm satisfied with what I've put out, then that's all that matters at the end of the day. If I can say "I gave it my all and produced something that actually matters to me on a personal level" then it'll be okay.
I really want to submit this demo day holy shit its been like over a year since my last submission.
>>565527650Nice work
just opened a beer after literally working the entire day in a single feature
>>565527579You can only say this now because you haven't yet wasted the best years of your life achieving absolutely nothing.
Congrats you have a demo. Now turn it into 6 figures. That's what I do, everytime. https://youtu.be/-oSL4IspnUQ&t=1476
>>565527650What's the lore behind LizardEngine?
>>565527878I consider it an achievement if I make it
>>565527176I'm struggling to accept this theory because that guy clearly is capable of writing full sentences. The slopper is a subhuman who has never actually said anything besides "you lost"
>>565528214The AI slopper is a false flagging artist that wants the thread to hate AI.
>>565527861>spend two days on UI>still doesn't look right
>>565528335You would think so. Everyone kind of projects their own competence and high IQ onto the slopper though, I have noticed that. I really think it's just a soulless husk of a person who has been swept up by the kind of religious fervor that sloppers have. If you check out their hangouts on reddit and X you will see, they are all a hivemind of extremely shallow beings with infinite time on their hand and a grudge against humanity for not worshipping their ability to use their paid LLM services. It's almost frightening.
Well now I feel depressed
>>565528207We're all gonna make it.
>>565528214There are multiple AI cultists. The one that acts like a raging homosexual and can't form a proper sentence is Joshua Drew aka arma3 tranny axewound. Even with the help of AI, he got filtered, gave up, and spends all day spamming each thread with the same 10 images.
As of this post this thread officially has more posts than the fake hateful AI terrorist thread making this the real thread. Praise Be Unto Allah
>>565527650I played your previous one. it was the subway with the gun and the gameboy irrc, if that was demoday idk.
>>565528757Some of us will make it. Most of you will not.
>>565528757I do actually hope I can get actual attention for the game, but even just making it the way I wanted to make it is the baseline for what I consider a successful project.I don't consider this a hobby or a job, I consider this a passion. I feel an insatiable hunger to just make this one thing because I've been dreaming about making a game since I was a boy
Fuck the slopper incel cunt.
>>565528579They all make the worst "memes" crying about luddites too it's like a character trait they all have from being soulless mega autists. The slopper here posts these kinds of things often, under the impression that it's some kind of zinger and will dunk on the luddites here.
>>565528579Is the color of their incel hands Pantone 448C by any chance?
>>565529140this one of those images that looks like something when zoomed out and then it is a different scene when the image is expanded?
>>565528003Lizard is my pubg player name
>>565528385dude i spent the entire day working on ui as well and im not even finished yet lol ui is truly the worst
>>565529075Oh fug. Soulful overloadDon't do this to me. Not in front of the boys
>>565529140you can tell this is AI. lines woven under and over, interlinked instead of just overlapping
>>565529795It's okay. I just want to make the thingamajig.I have no name for it. All I want to do is make something that I feel is an authentic expression of what I want to do, and that's it.I intend to release it chapter by chapter, come hell or high water.
>>565529262>>luddites Everytime i read this word it reminds me of the slopper and a part of my soul chips off each time... Please no more.
>>565529075>I've been dreaming about making a game since I was a boy>didn't start until his mid-20sMany such cases.
>>565529140ai art insists upon itself
>>565529946I'm a Steamie. I make slop.I don't care if my games flop.
will your game have races which wear facepaint?Like the Zabrak from Star Wars?
>>565529872Untrue, I hadn't even read the shit.
>>565529946Mein gott. What have I become. It truly is an evil thing they have done battering us with the word for 3+ years now. It makes no sense either because anyone who has used a search engine has used already used... Artificial Intelligence... I leave it here. You have set me free. Thank you.
>>565529918Game fun = people playIf you put your soul into it and you know whats fun your already better off than most.
>>565530230i don't show faces because I can't be assed animating them
>>565530327you're replying to the slopper, the last posts are all him samefagging bumping his thread
>>565530118Gaben CHAD has EARNED his pay.
>>565530532AND FROM THE ROPES ZUKOWSKI AND THOMAS BRUSH!!!!
>>565530481If I had to be honest, my "Ideal" level of popularity is something like ENA or Fear and Hunger. Not so popular that everyone knows about it, but has an enduring fanbase anyways.Whatever. If I get no players, too many players, or just the right amount of players, it's all the same in the end.
>>565530527Good, better the thread doesn't die so he stays in his little cage.
Something something... steamie wayFUUUU I forgot how it ends
>>565530527I know, but I'm replying to the slopper incel in this thread, so it's fine.

I feel really, really upset right now.I tried everything
>>565530640This is the most liberating concept. If my game flops, I'll just make another. Can't stop, won't stop.
>>565531198Nigger what was your question?
>>565531636I have a personal deadline of "Nextfest 2027."
what would you do if this girl asked about your game?

>>565531673He's psyopping us to scan the thread looking for it. A little variety alongside his "I feel terrible" and "I give up" psyop posts. Sick shit.

>>565531871Don't blame this shit on me, I'm just venting when I say shit like that
>>565530861Sometimes I can smell the 90s through pictures. It's hard to describe. The air was electric.
>>565528214>I'm struggling to accept this theoryif you want more evidence look at the thread by yourselfhttps://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/564647041/#564682068and more importantly, look at both threads now, he stopped spamming, just like in that thread when we discovered his previous dead projects>>565528882we used to think that joshua was the AItard before, but his melties are differenthttps://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/564647041/#564680035this isn't about AI, is about shitting the thread as a coping mechanism because he got filtered and because he's desperate for attention:>if I can't make it, you won't make it either
>>565531636>>565531951I already have a second steam license fee paid for my next game. I'm not even sure what it will be yet, but whenever I'm ready I can go ahead and do it. Feels good.Winners win.

I'm ready for Internet 2.0 where only people who aren't obsessed with transexuals are allowed.
>>565532215that's awesome. I have 2 games in production(one stalled), but only one on steam. never thought to just buy a license before I am ready to set up the page(hate doing that)
Reminder that personality and character is actually important.Look at games like OFF. Great art but the characters are memorable as hell
>>565533614Not everyone makes a RPG troonchud. Some people make games without characters, or something.
>>565532378Makes it moddable.
>>565533614well, sure, that's a given for a story game.
Can I have a hug
Why is valve so lazy?
>>565534872Meanwhile they approve of slop like that of that other nigga who tried to kill Drumpf in no time.
instead of submitting to demoday i just messaged my build to my fans and they gave me more helpful advice than all of this thread combined would havei guess this is why all the yesdevs leave this general. the one saving grace is actually utterly useless
>>565527357https://scrungusboyo.itch.io/a-demonstrationWelp
>>565535114post the fan art the fans made you
>>565535194>chicken too tough it slips off the place when you go to cut it
>>565535273i would but i have my reputation to consider. i guess 4chan still has one saving grace in its anonymity!
>>565535654it's fun to pretend
>>565535194Sometimes I wonder if agdg isn’t the best place to post my work
>>565535114why are you still here then?
>>565535993cuz i like some of you guys i just enjoy doomposting
Do you guys review the submissions of those who reviewed yours or just review at random?>>565530532
>>565535194
>>565535194Nigga’s skinny af.
>>565536451Is this a glitch
>>565536530Yeah because he’s an underfed lunatic with severe PTSD who lives out of a run down Toyota
it was oddly compelling. could do with some control explanation. the stompy guy has great heft. camera is pretty random(zoomed out here for some reason?). and the WASD directional control doesn't seem grounded right? like it should be camera/screen relative, but here i had to guess which way WASD would send me at times.
>>565536648yeah I couldn't move.
>>565536825It is camera-screen relative. It’s just designed that way so you can run all the way through.
>>565536240>I left agdg because nobody is giving me good feedback but I enjoy shitting the threadjust as all the 'cord faggots seething about the actual state of agdg
>>565536938Huh. I thought I removed that.Did it happen specifically with the chicken? Because that shouldn’t be happening. I’ll investigate that.
>>565536825So adding “Make movement feel more natural” to my current checklist of shit I gotta get done. Probably need to rework the fucking run animations and perhaps add IK.
>>565536945I think the camera relativity is lost if you are holding down keys. if I let go and press a direction it does seem right. but if I am running with W, and then press a direction, it's weird.
blog, u can ignore. i lost direction of my game the past three days, led to almost no meaningful work.i think i found it again, but it's weird when i get stuck like this. it's like i just refuse to move. anyone know what im talking about?its because my game wasn't fun, and i thought the systems i built for it would be enough, but it just isn't. i have an idea on how to fix it, but im paralyzed. it finally went away today, but man, did it cost a week of despair and depression. hopefully this new direction makes it fun and kino.
>>565537312Oh, that.Actually that was intentional. It’s meant to keep you “Sailing” through camera changes without suddenly turning around if that makes a lick of sense
>>565537039I couldn't tell who hit me. both were up in my face when it happened
>>565537415Alright, that’s really weird.Here’s how that worksThe chicken specifically has a “Grab” for its charge attack in the form of a box collider that “Catches” the player.This is triggered via animation events. What I find odd that I designed it to DISABLE after either a set period OR if the enemy was damaged. Perhaps it being near another entity caused the bug? Or maybe the player being damaged fucked itI’ll have to look into that.
>>565537708So, my to-do list>Add textures to the environment and make it atmospheric >Fix combat bugs and movement bugs>Make the animations for both players and enemies flow into each other better>Add trees and buildings with props/interiors>Add proper interaction n’ shit
>>565490803From what I remember changing the canvas mode after you've made an UI in it can fuck things up. So yeah you probably need to make a new canvas, set the settings correctly and then build it again. You might be able to copy things over or at least you have the old one for reference.
>>565538105I already fixed the resolution issue
>>565538101And SFX.
>>565537036I post progress and spoonfeed semi-regularly though
Imagine "The Warp" from Warhammer 40K, in other words a void where the craziest stuff imaginable is occurring, but unlike in 40K it's not all nightmarish beyond comprehension, it equally has areas beautiful/utopian beyond comprehension. It's a void, so everything in flying around or floating in it, which includes players, but also castles, islands, airships, crazy creatures, demonic "god" entities, etc, once again like Warhammer 40K's The Warp. And that's the entire game, a 100+ player multiplayer sandbox in The Warp. You can't leave The Warp because you're already dead.
I’ve got a lotta work to do in any case
I'm modeling a fence/border, and I'm wondering if I should do a square fence or a round fenceIt's such a small detail, but god I'm autistic
>>565539442And just like Warhammer 40K's "The Warp", the void is depth-based, metaphorically like an ocean, the deeper (down) you go the more nightmarish and incomprehensible it becomes, relative safety would exist higher up
>>565539442One of the planes in my lore is similar to this.
>>565539442>>565539571My top name picks since I can't call it The Warp are>Otherspace>The Astral SeaBut in truth I'm never going to make a game, I never cared about anything except lore turns out

>>565534872every contact point you interact with at Steam is to a non-Valve outsourcer acting on a set of instructions laid out for them by Valve that apply to most cases. this is an unusual request outside of the set instructions requiring contact with ACTUAL Valve staff of which literally none of them want to interact with customers/indiedevs.
>>565541301blame the pdfs chasing away legit devs
I think the only thing that truly irks me with gamedevving is just how massive your list of assets becomes, between meshes, animations, sounds, code, if you don't start organized, it's very easy for your files to become a goddamned disaster

>>565543761>phoneposteras you should
149 days left according to my slightly revised schedule. I owe 15 hours of work to my game. Yesterday was my third day of working on the pointless tutorial, although I did spend 2 hours fixing a nasty physics bug. I'm hoping to finish the tutorial today and move onto something else. I need some bug fix updates for my existing games.>>565542680I'm considering switching to caffeine pills because I don't like coffee at all. The ones I have are 200mg so it's more like a jolt than a steady dose.
>>565543973i love coffee so much my doctor told me to stop drinking it years ago when i got my GERD diagnosis but I just ignored them before it became just too painful.however, unlike the act of just having a cup in the morning, which was mostly ritualistic desu, didnt do much energy wise, taking the pills has been great for all day energy. doesnt fuck with my stomach at all.i have 100s i cut in half, so u can just take a pill cutter and cut yours into fourths if you wanna try the same thing. the coffee jolt+crash kinda sucks but if you take it slow and consistent its like a very smooth cruise instead of a roller coaster and honestly its been helping a lot with actually getting stuff done
>Another update frensCrate destroy physics. If things in the world are breakable, then breaking them should be a visceral experience.
>>565544617Unfortunately I only have film capsules so I can't cut them. I suppose I could empty them and divide the powder but it's better to try to find pills that can be cut or with lower doses.

>>565548278if you're devving this what do you think of zim? do you think it's cool
>>565548489yeah actually I wanted to build zim into my game i was working on as the in game script editor (part of the level editor) but I just use godot textedit control instead>>565548403would this kind of laptop also show the problem do you think?
>>565548662cool i didnt know anybody liked it i have a thinkpad t14 gen 1 so probably it was $180 on ebayzim crashes, it's not ready for that yet. but i'm still kinda giggly about hearing that. its all i use to code though
guess I did it.Now what?I need new ideas...

Randomly thought of that, but 15-20 years ago, anonymous developers were much more common for some reasons, for all type of games. do these guy still make games? With how the world is moving it's looking to be almost impossible for this type of developers to survives (and they already were much less common, there's not much benefit from this today)

>>565541869This becomes less daunting with experience, and as your aptitude for organizing things increases eventually even the sloppy stuff is no problem and your brain is able to keep tabs on thousands of items. Brains are extremely powerful, not even just human brains. Animals are able to cache food and remember hundreds or thousands of locations. Some are funny though, like smaller animals like squirrels will stash food in countless places and even forget where most of it is. But we are not squirrels. Our brains are huge.>The Clark’s nutcracker is widely recognized for remembering the most food caches, storing up to 30,000 seeds annually and successfully retrieving them months later, even under deep snow. This bird possesses a nearly eidetic memory and a disproportionately large hippocampus, allowing it to recall thousands of specific spatial locations

>>565558327Can you make the art? Can you scope it into something you can realistically make in a reasonable time frame while making a good appealing game out of it? I didn't expect Nungun to sell any but it did so maybe there's more room for small fps games than I thought.

>>565559005where are all the extraction fantasy games the classic go to a dungeon and return to town to sell your loot trope is basically an extraction game loop but there's really not many games that lean into that
i think it's pretty simple what people want in games. they want real life without humans. at best, they want the human npcs to be slaves that do what they want.why? because people actually love nature and reality, they just hate that they got cucked by more powerful humans (they own no land, no resources, no animals etc. anymore)we actually live in a world with MASSIVELY overpowered players that own everything.people just "flee" into the virtual world. that doesn't mean they hate nature etc. - it means they have being outpowered.i mean, literally 99% of social media content nowadays is about people talking about how they have no power, no resources, nothing. not even friends and sex.well, maybe they don't even wants npcs to be "slaves", but at least they should be friendly and fair to you. "sharing the world with you", rather than forcing you to live on a 16x16 cuckplot on an overpopulated minecraft server.
>>565560361Yeah, it’s not like every RPG has pretty much exactly that loop.
>>565560651How does that apply to abstract games like Tetris?
>>565559607I want to make larger games with soul but I do not have the attention span to dedicate years to a project.
>>565561147are we talking about pc gaming or games you play on your phone/handheld while sitting on the toilet?
>>565561510Do people not play abstract games like tetris on PC?
>>565560758it might be part of many rpgs but it comes as a natural part of the rest of the gameplay experience not the main thingwhat if you made a fantasy game where the goal is to dive into a dungeon, find good loot and extract with said loot and you could do all the usual meta prog stuff improving your crafting options character upgrades and whatever else
to me, failure is when you weren't able to make your dream game. at least if that was your first goal when you went into gamedev.it's like someone playing a dungeon crawler and not being able to progress anymore, and they tell everybody "but i spend all day farming gold and i'm really rich". you didn't be the game you started playing, you just coped by redefining the goal. you basically failed.
Recoil Rush. The movement is excellent, it's fun to gain momentum and jump on walls. The fact that the pistol's projectile reflects on slopes should've been pointed out. I also typically just use one gun through the game, don't need to use the rest mostly. I got filtered by stage 4. I think the airborne kick should be instant, the animation is too slow and it's frustrating when you keep missing the target because of it.I also really have to say that the aesthetic reminds me of old flash games, I really like it. Maybe it's the music.
this thread is so chill, when he isn't online. kinda sad that one guy has so much posting power...
>>565562508To be honest, making something you genuinely like and believe is good is better than sex. I still should get a job though.
are there gamedev podcasts that aren't about 2 hour long talks about how much money they made and how many wishlists they had and how many people played their game? i do not gain anything by someone having a 2 hour session of telling me how happy they are with their numbers. that's not informational at all. it's like watching the oscars or so where they are just celebrating their wins.
>>565549071another streamer bait slop
>>565563040https://www.idlethumbs.net/designernotes/episodeshttps://www.idlethumbs.net/tonecontrol
>>565562508Nah, when you grow up you look back at some of your dream games and they are just like, 3 of your favorite childhood games combined with a AAAA scope.
yeahsowhere's my fucking fanart?
when will you update the made by aggydevs list?
>>565563295so what?
Unknown Conquest. I like the audio work in this game in particular. Unfortunately, I can't progress past this part, can't hit the enemies fast enough and I always die. I usually don't like using the mouse for action, so maybe it's a me problem.
>>565563636So I think your framework for failure is flawed and should be revised.

I know how to make this general up to 250% better
This is gonna sound odd but I'm somewhat certain that bad/unfamiliar controls have a weird mesmerized effect, especially on people who are "used" to games.pic could've very easily been a tank-controls or third-person with first person while aiming but I doubt I would've found it as engrossing if the controls were better.It was a similar strange experience as when I first played Drakengard 1 which had jarringly bad controlsAny other examples of this worth studying? It's such a strange phenomenon
>>565565862I'd rather kill myself
>>565566049
>>565565895Have you played games like Surgeon Simulator or Octodad? They have intentionally bad controls as part of the fun.
>>565565895UFO50 has mooncat.
>>565565845it's because people have a 30 day return window
>>565565609You can do it bruv. Your thugs do great.Worst comes to worse, you'll do some sauce poster and redeem yourself for DD 69
>>565566049why tho? this mindset will not exist in the near future, why not be a future man?if the problem is programming related I mean, I get not using it for anything art/design related
>>565566427thank you homie g. Right now I'm taking the levels of the old demo + one of the levels made for da full game and updating them with new lights, new fights, some of the new weapons etc.... pray 4 me dunnbut I mostly want to be here to get feedback on all the gameplay changes I made, there's no punches pulled in the stream and they helped the previous demo a shitton>>565566604as you said AI art is soulless, LLM code tends to become unmaintainable slop really fast so I'm stayingaway from it right now
>>565566705>as you said AI art is soulless, >LLM code tends to become unmaintainable slop really fast so I'm stayingaway from it right nowand AI can't do fingerinos am I right fellow luddie?
Is this a good capsule for itch?
>>565563579What is missing?
>>565566956my game
>>>/v/738067767
>>565565895You are describing Mooncat on UFO 50, which is widely considered one of the best 50 games on the package.I am once again telling all /agdg/ devs to play UFO 50. You will learn more playing it then watching all those shitty gamedev youtubers.
I know already know the replies I’m going to get BUTI want to implement a first person melee attack, a side swing with a blunt object e.g. steel pipe, on to an enemy I’m unsure how to approach or what are the assets I need:should the swing go through the enemy or bounce back?one enemy animation of getting hit enough?
>>565566705>LLM code tends to become unmaintainable slopAI is just like me fr.
Dance of Elements. This game is in a much better shape than the first time I played it. Most of the issues have been fixed. It's really fun to see many elemental moves acting at the same time, many of which change the environment and stay for a while. I also think it's neat that there are 4 stamina bars for each element so you can't just use one forever. The gauntlet is also fun, it's just what this game needed.Some small suggestions: I really think you should add a button for switching from one element to the next, that would make it a lot smoother to me. There should be an option to toggle the white outline for the player character, I think he looks better all black. Lastly, sometimes the player character changes colors (when he is burned I think) and it's hard to see which stickman you are in gauntlet mode, I think he should stay always black.
>>565567254looks like slop
Is solphor Lamp here?
>>565567387yeah

>>565567254i saw you on twitter half an hour ago...
>>565567584thanks king
I vibe made my whole game, posted it and didn't say a peep about AI, already see a lot of players, and I'm getting good feedback. See AI slopper that's how you do it.
>>565565895you just reminded me, this is weird and uncharasteristic but im actually excited for progress on a snes game lolOR AT LEAST I WAS, i think i just now figured out why i liked it lol. THIS MFs BLUE? WTH? I think my emulator must be getting the RGB mixed up for BGR coz when I played it it was all in red not in blue, and it looked kino. but this blue trash looks like shit damn. weird how actually a COLOR can make such a difference. i guess that is how racism works too. wow color is important. literally good game to bad game on a color choice.
>>565567320It looks fine, don't be so pessimistic.
>>565568230

>>56556589510hit is a dogshit game that's one control fix away from being a 10/10Everyone I asked to play the game stopped before finishing the tutorial. Bad controls are not secretly great, put the cope on the floor and nobody gets hurt
>>565568517sure, got discord?
>>565568461>Implying Game & Watch can't be funBruh...
>>565568534
>>565568667boomer
>>565568632but the factor he spoke about could be true, if you were locked in a cage and forced to play, because it hinges on the primordial concept of neuro plasticity and the perceptual divergence that can occur as your mind is forced to subliminally consume the entire games aura while being forced to re-adapt to the poor input scheme
>>565565895Old Armored Core games come to mind. Before they switched to the twin stick scheme the controls were kinda weird but also pretty fucking good once you got used to them. Tenchu 1(and 2?) also has some truly bizarre controls for modern sensibilities. There is a certain charm to games that control differently but I think it's quite the risk to make your game like that if it's in a genre with strong control standards.
>>565568635Yep.We talked on there before.I sent you a friend request.Looking at it now it seems like you accepted.Sorry, i didn't notice that until now, haha.I'll give ya message there.>>565568716Well actually i'm 27. I simply appreciate and understand the value of retro gaming as well as what's modern.A balance between the two does exist and it's a shame that too many people let their own personal biases get in the way of both industry and community reaching that balance.
>>565568632>one control fix away from being a 10/10What is that control fix?
>>565569051A and D not making you rotate but making you go into their respective directions.
>>565566925Is this an AI alteration of my art? Looks cool actually. I think my coloring could have been better. I should have used darker shades since it was night. But I don't know shit about color theory so it looks kind of awful.

>>565570149>true art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable
>>565570401how can you afford it?
>>565569307I had to play it out of curiosity. I think it's the sort of game where the controls grow on you over time. It was kinda starting to click for me after failing the second mission a few times. They will always be a bit jank but if they weren't the game would be way too easy. Imagine if it had regular fps controls. You wouldn't be able to fail the demo missions. It wouldn't be the same game. The entire game is figuring out the controls puzzle and mastering it to be able to complete the missions. Interesting note the demo has almost 1000 reviews 96% positive.

>>565575519any they didn't all boughted and revieweded it... very strange.
in most cases no one knows why games make it or flop. you can take any example and find similar games that had a completely different fate.>it's not true, I know why. pattern recognition. high iq.if you could be right about any stock or commodity (any!) 60% of the time, you could become a multi-millionaire in 2 years and a billionaire in 10 years. turns out it's really hard to be right about something that volatile 60% of the time so when you think you know shit, you're probably wrong about that too.
>>565565895This is a thing with automobiles where various manufacturers, usually italian, do things like make the steering wheel a weird size or put the pedals on the opposite side of the car and this causes the owners to become incredibly possessive of their vehicles and fanatical about their creators.
>>565575875but what if?
>>565575875I play steam guesser and do pretty well at guessing if a game flopped or not.
>>565576126most games flop. if you guess that an unremarkable game you haven't heard of before flopped, you'll do "pretty well" as far as guessing goes.

>>565575231>50k wishlistsAny proof? While I can believe that number (whoring 24/7 on X, decent graphics, decent publisher), a lot of indies lie on the wishlist count because it's easy to hype that kind fo posts, makes your game looks better than what it actually is, and retarded "Did you know about this indie game? It looks amazing!" xitters like "best indie games" account will only promote your game if it has high wishlists count.
playing steam guesser and claiming to be an "expert" on what makes a game floppa is the same as taking an online IQ test and branding yourself a genius.

>>565578137retard loser
one thing i try to be careful about is not copying a game and changing something that was a conscious decision.e.g. zomboid has isometric perspective and the 3D models for zombies etc are extremely low poly. this is actually important from technical aspects when you have a huge horde of zombies roaming and they all have their own equipment (helmets, jeans, backpack, shoes etc.)you could falsely assume "man i'm gonna make zomboid but first-person". but then you suddenly need higher res models and suddenly you can't render that many zombies anymore. also now you look into the distance instead of top-down and suddenly you also have to render zombies far away and also all the houses/terrain far away.basically you now ruined what makes the game great, by trying to "improve it". you made it fancier and first-person, but now there are less zombies roaming etc.or you try to make it prettier with good looking modular building etc. - yet you can't really tear down the world anymore like in a grid-based game where you can destroy each single cell etc.and ofc modular-building again makes performance worse than meshing a chunk into one mesh. and also it makes building a navmesh etc. way harder. or now you can't do flood fill lighting anymore and use the light value to determine gameplay stuff like plant-growth, visibility, moods based on darkness etc. etc.
>>565574986If it makes you feel any better i am willing to play, review and maybe even make videos of your game once i am able to afford it.
>>565569739Sorry, anon. It loads a window and then crashes. Can you upload a version with a terminal window or something so I can report error messages. Maybe you forgot to include some .dll on the main folder? I was really curious about this game, hope you can fix it.
>>565578298liar liar pants on fire
>>565575231>People are still talking about it and saying that they’re playing it on Twitter…I’m 99% sure this shit is a lie
>>565576604you're not wrong
>>565577385Happy to see one of these Twitterfags get their comeuppance, they're all the same person with the same game.

>>565578638No, Jesus Himself never stood there and take anything bad anyone said about Him, especially the Jewish leaders, and His disciples were savage when rebuking others, Paul even once made a man go blind for speaking against him. Jesus never said "let others walk over you." or anything like that. Christian pacifism is a fraud, a lie made to make Christians accept sin instead of fighting against it like what God wants, what the disciples did even after Jesus died.Not to mention you're not one to talk with you bully behavior, you're acting exactly like the Jews who got Jesus crucified in the first place.
>>565578694yeah country! you heard him!! (help me make cunt=country catch on, esls can help cunt the place up)
that terrible moment when you realize you're not the main character and that you were too optimistic and you never had a chancewhen you realize you're just another corpse in the pile
>>565578797The real question is why did it flop despite so much attention?
low poly howa almost done, the texture needs to be cleaned up to be more square and clean and obscure the fact its an image scraped off google
>>565579037I don't understand, but this looks very interesting. What's the tracker doing?

>>565578920Respect women.Misogyny should be a bannable offense.Not to mention that gooner posting is low quality, off topic and NSFW.If only the mods aren't so complacent with rule breaking.
>>565578797do twitterfags actually eat this up? im always cringing when i see a marketing chain train like this. i feel like its almost antimarketing, associating yourself with endless slop before and after you.
>>565579432This happens every week. None of these talk like a normal post that's worth joining.
the most dangerous mindset is believe that there is nothing meaningful left that you personally could explore. that everything has been discovered already, and that you don't have the means to discover anything beyond that. it's a mindset that gives up on exploration.i guess that's the job of artists. they had to paint visions, they had to paint fantasies. just in order for the explorers to search for the means to make those fantasies a reality.
>>565579432You’d think something else
>>565579323I didn't call you a Jew i said you're acting like the Jews who got Jesus killed yet if that offends you so much, if you're unable to handle that despite hypocritically throwing a fit and hurling suts everywhere then i suggest you leave the internet, have a break, because clearly this place is doing harm to your mental state for you to act like a Jew who killed Jesus.Begone with your hatred, your insults are lies and should not be tolerated.
>>565578797I don't get it.
>>565579645kek i appreciate you being enough of a hater to make a twitter collage kekkkkkkk
Why do I have trouble getting out of bed in the morning
>>565579235That one meme word, "performative" and bots or bot like mentality. People will click the like button, reblog post, or add to wishlist without any care. It's the simplest way to show support. They never cared to play or buy said game at the end.
>>565579286I'm using it as a test app at the moment, I'm running the tracker as a separate app secretly in the background and stealing its screen and showing that in my app as a texture that I can move around, then I just need to pipe input clicks on that texture to offset and scale the coordinates and then inject those into the SDL message queue on the remote app, and it should all work. and I had the tracker because I was going to use it with a silent instrument that the game watches to trigger event timing at the same time as audio things
>>565579645top right might? make it, bottom right will make it.middle bottom might? idktop left will make it if a streamer plays it kek
>>565579964You’s think they’d buy it considering how utterly hyped for it they seemed.Guess that’s the power of streamers
>>565578295>but then you suddenly need higher res models and suddenly you can't render that many zombies anymorea non issue for modern hardwarethe real issue is producing that high fidelity art or art that looks good in first person and just how fucking much of it you need to fill a game
is it fair the successful games pay more steam taxes than small games profiting from the same platform?
>>565579235Modern YouTubers have a no-lose policy so they'll avoid any game that could make them lose, and SoulQuest is one of those.
>>565580426Huh
>>565580225i get what you mean, but i think rendering a lot of zombies with different outfits and complex animation states (high res also requires more detailed rigs), still has a massive scaling cost. the zombies have to fall over fences, they have to crawl on the floor, bite you, smash windows etc. etc. - it's not like in bullet hells where they just walk and die.
>>565579963trick your brain into doing something like this"i will get up and turn on my pc solely so i can play games and NOTHING ELSE"but once you get up, you close the game and continue devvingyou can replace playing gaymes with something else that you love doing of course
if the goal is learning, then failing is winning.
>>565578481This looks like shit to play. Aiming a ranged weapon with your movement? Is this fucking 1985? The levels look boring too. Flat planes with some props scattered about. Enemy layouts don't seem to have much thought behind them either. I am a bit surprised it only has 1 review. It doesn't look THAT bad. On that part it could be a failure to market it.>>565578673What the fuck is that price. This looks like a $2 game. If it was $2 it could see it having some reviews.
>>565580149Was gonna write a long post, but I'll keep it short. People see the hype (twitter post chains) and join in, but don't buy until they see others enjoying it (streamer let's play). Then they buy. They don't show interest in something unless other's do first.
>>565581057can you prove that?
>>565580887it's hard to learn from failure, in an industry like this. not trying to crab, but its something i genuinely struggle with. Although, I feel like failure would help know the market more than a successful game. I feel like if i got a successful game, id still dont know what my next game would be that would also make money.
>>565581057That’s kinda stupid.
>>565580515Pick a trendy game and you'll see that they all have ass boss fights so that streamers will never take a loss.
>>565566604I love social media brainrot I love hypercorp brainrot I love eating bugs I love the disintegration of all frontiers and wild west environments and the transition to pure gay pridefuck horses, fuck farms, fuck nature, fuck painting, fuck dairythe future is here, and the future is gAI, I will own nothing and I WILL be happy
>>565580578it has a higher scaling cost but it really doesn't matter that much if the code is built to handle a lot of characters and that applies to a top-down game as wellmaybe you couldn't do 100 zombies on screen but how many first person games needs that many? realistically you're looking at like 5-20 zombies at a time l4d hordes were about 30 zombies and they don't even show up at once
>>565580426source? i believe it, but i'd like to read more about it.
i dont wanna just copy every moba i wanna make it different how do i make my own genre
>>565579645I wouldn't make a post like this because I know everyone who sees my post wasn't granted by the algorithm, they came there from my game
>>565581465What if your target is video essayists
>>565579998Nifty
>>565581115Those games in the twitter posts prove it. Cult classics prove it. Among Us proved it.>>565581181That's how the modern world works.
>>565581512uh oh
>>565581601you cant even make pong

>>565581601>mobadoa
>>565581808looks bad and you should feel bad
>>565581761But seriously that is pretty moronic
>>565581148making money is not your responsibility. your only responsibility are things you can grasp with your brain. responsibility requires knowledge and power, otherwise it's only an illusion of responsibility. that's why people play dumb to avoid responsibility. but also why people who feel intelligent think they are responsible for things they can't control (out of their need for control).my rule of thumb: if you can identify a complex system, then it is a system with shared responsibility and therefore not being controlled by a single entity. the economy is definitely a complex system. trying to predict what makes money is like trying to predict what's the weather in 4 weeks. it's impossible.i think because of the internet and social media we live in a time where people can't accurately determine their responsibilities anymore, because it's all too connected.and then people go into extremes of absolute victim mentality or absolute control illusion. fact is: you are both, you are a victim of luck and circumstances, but also responsible for things you definitely know and have power over. e.g. you definitely know that if you don't close your water tap it'll create a massive water bill. and if you don't do it, you are definitely liable for the bill. or you know that if you don't pay your rent, your contract will be canceled, therefore you a responsible to pay the bill. if you don't have the money for the bill and you have no power/knowledge to make money, you are not responsible for the circumstances/situation, you are a victim. if you know that the grocery store will pay you money and you refuse to do so, even if you know they offer a job and you have the power to do the job, then you are liable and you have to live with the fact that you get kicked out.but even that isn't fully under your control. i try to limit responsibility to small doses where it's "common sense".
Does brimstone save VODs. I just joined and would like to see the first hour I missed
>>565582141People are pretty moronic.
>>565581591Source: They used my Steam Key but didn't make a video.If you want something more tangible, this video has a single death and it's only at the end of the 40 minute mark.
>>565582305I mean c’mon.
I would like it if at least 1 more person left a comment frens
>>565581526hm. also keep in mind that zombies keep laying on the ground after death for immersion.
>>565582427
>>565582545i made that game
>>565582305A part of me wonders if it’s laziness.>Nahhhh I don’t wanna play a game that’s on Steam.
>>565582427how many of these do you even have at this point
>>565582565
>>565582589me too.
>>565582681
>>565582453Most people are utter fucking morons. They buy what they are told to buy. That might come from the media they read or watch, or from their friends if they have them. It is rare to have someone go looking in steam or elsewhere for games to buy. I'd claim it's less than 20% of steam users and it might be much worse than that.>>565582649It could be but I think it's mostly to do with people being NPC tier sheep who can't think for themselves. The thought process necessary to look at games and decide to buy one that looks good to them is too much to ask from them. It is not a decision they can make alone. They need an outside impulse to buy a game and to play it.
zukowski: here is my formula and my market analysisschedule 1 dev: lol that roblox game is fun, let's make my own version in unity
>>565582545the power of Java btw
>>565579235twitter users do not actually play games. they just collect psp and ds lites for vibesgames always shown on start screen
>>565582956>lol that roblox game is fun, let's make my own version in unityqrd?
>>565582360One of Wander's VC videos had him repeatedly dying at the same stage because he was too retarded to invest in meta progression.
>>565582937So a streamer could play it and they’d buy it
>>565582956the dev was a nepo whose relative worked for gabecunt, the game got featured on the fucking store page banner for a whole day
Why does Demo Day bring in unfunny kids to AGDG?
>>565582545what sort of gameplay were you thinking of for first person with that many zombies? I think you are putting the cart before the horse
>>565583439you go around and shoot them, then collect loot
>>565583289What do you mean
>>565583520This guy here >>565581808
i just fuckin woke up why does time go by so fast fucking cern glow niggers
>>565583498and why do you need 200 zombies on screen for that?
AHHHHH
>ai>chad>wonwake me up when ai can reliably do this
>>565583608
>>565583702well then you better get started on writing a system that can handle that many zombies
>>565582242wow this was kino. i feel this to be a genuine insight into my attempts at understanding and controlling the chaos that is the world. thanks for the genuine response, anon. im gonna save this in my notes
>>565583694why does she transformed ino robet
>>565583785>ask for help>hmm you better do it yourselfhow about you help me a bit instead??
>>565583294notice how each of the images you post is basically worthless. it's not impressive to anyone. soon no game will be impressive to anyone since AI will be shitting them out at 10 an hour. which is good if you're a gamer but makes being gamedev kinda pointless
>>565583921
>>565584009lgbt people iq mog the straights, so it doesn't help ur point if this is a battle of intelligence
>>565584146ok tranny
>>565583906anyone got a high iq analysis on why this game succeeded? is it actually fun? i should play it for umm research, definitely not to nodev
>>565579964>People
>>565584310>friendslop>nepo>featured on the front page banner for a whole day>cheap>runs on a potatonuff said
If you know how to netcode a bit and some 3d, just look at the popular minecraft/roblox mods and minigames, copy those and launch on steam. It's been proven to work, look at Far Far West (minecraft mod) lately
would appreciate another play and comment. trying to gauge the difficulty of the puzzles.
>>565584310yeah. caseoh played it. thats it. i was hanging with my zoomie cousin and thats how he discovered it
>>565584310there is nothing better than sandbox games where you just hop in and start progressing. that's why i loved old mmorpgs without stories. if you then have enough content to at least keep people busy for 30 hours+, then everything's well.if you wouldn't use a wiki you'd literally spend 500 hours in that game just to discover all the unique recipes. well, you played it right? you know all the features it has!?
it turns out whatever 4chan calls slop is actually well made when you actually play it. (i exclude dei-slop from this statement)they always try to reduce the quality of a game to the idea instead of the execution. "hurr durr drug dealer game? that's so unoriginal", yeah, but it's well made.
I need
>>565584919me too
>>565585098i give
>>565580059top left has 200k wishlists
>>565580059>>565585157sorry, 260k
>>565585318i made dis game
>>565584009I was genuinely curious about what you think the benefit is to gamedevs. if making games becomes easier, there will be even more games (both good and bad) competing for the mostly constant time/attention/money from an audience
>>565585485An AI Chad isn't scared of tools.
i keep noticing how i refuse to dev anymore, because i'm like 100% sure i'll burn myself out. i actually heard of someone having autism that he keeps setting alarm clocks, because he loses sense of time and suddenly 6 hours of work feel like 30 minutes. i think a brain that is good at forgetting the human needs is good at doing great things, but is also extremely self-destructive.it's not even just about physical health, i also forget to have fun, or i'm too burnt out to enjoy fun things or even talk to anybody. also when i'm too focused on work i have absolutely no topics anymore i can talk to with non-devs. it's like my life is falling apart as soon as i start my dev autism. and i know for sure that i can't balance it, my brain just isn't able to handle it. it's like avoiding even tiny amounts of drugs because you know once you start it goes wrong.
>>565585551ok but what when anyone can make a game as easily as they can make an image? would that benefit you or harm you as a gamedev?
>>565585441i believe you
>>565585750my brother u are already burnt out thats why its hard for you take a long break. play some good gams just do something different you cant force it
>>565585860Are pro fighters scared that the guy over there can throw punches? Are pro racers scared of commuters? Are athletes scared of someone running across the street? The answer is no; the same applies here.
>>565585914and then? i'll just come back and burn out again. i need to find better ways that are more sustainable. or need to fix my subconscious mind that probably causes this behavior.
>>565586141puto
>>565585860>make a game as easily as they can make an image? we are already at this point its just that everyone is gatekeeping their flow
>>565585860most people don't have the drive to do it for real. we saw this with AI art and comics. where are all the AI comics? the handful that exist maybe got a oneshot? did AI harm comic makers all that much?
>>565586218>its just that everyone is gatekeeping their flow
>>565583921stop replying to itit is not human
>>565585860well, considering that anyone here can instantly generate porn and sell it just like people have been doing for the last 100 years ...is anyone here rich off of generated porn? I know a few people are still rich off of drawn porn.
>>565586294why would any sensible person spread the word instead of harvesting the golden eggs
>>565586468You can literally go into the porn section of steam and 99% of the top selling use AI art.
>>565584892>"hurr durr drug dealer game? that's so unoriginal"but it actually is original thoughhow many drug dealer games are out there?
>>565586543You're in the 99% of top selling? Congratulations!
>>565586720Thanks
>>565562832glad you liked it bro. i'll have to tweak the speed and size of the axe kick, you're supposed to have to time it but it's too unforgiving right now, especially trying to kick away a homing missile
>>565579645>>565580059>>565585318iron nest is hitting off because pvkk is taking forever to come out brilliant play on the devs part if they make it to market before pvkk
is there any reason i shouldn't use godot 4.7 beta1 other than "it's godot"
