Original asset pack used
Why is everyone such a dick here
>>566002540we're all friends here, cris included
Day 8 of working on the tutorial. I think I'll finish it today and then find someone who doesn't play games to try to play through it and see where I fucked up. Where do you find people who don't play games in this day and age?145 days left. I owe 15 hours to my game. I passed 1200 hours of work on it yesterday and it needs another 600 at the least. If it ends up earning me ten cents an hour, it'll be disappointing but not surprising.
>>565989585It's from doubleL's rpg animation pack. I'm using it while I prototype.
>>566002451same as among us being dead for eons before it took off, just get a big streamer to get addicted to your game and play it for a week then you're set>>566002540crab bucket mentality
>>566002451Why dont devs who buy asset packs attacked the same way AI devs are
>>566002540it's just one namefag going by 'Anonymous'. hate that guy
>>566003358bro he was attacked so hard
>>566003358Because asset packs were still made by someone I guess
>>566003358>Why dont devs who buy asset packs attacked the same way AI devs are
Late Night Game Dev After Hours Musichttps://youtu.be/YJiU70FqiaII got into an optimization valley. I'll be out soon and posting progress again brothers.
>>566003358retard
I finished up my out of bounds area and also started adding trees.IDK if this is the correct way to do trees but hey.I also fully intend to add a black all-surrounding background past a certain distance with said trees so I don't have to put trees literally everywhere.Magic tricks, as they always say.I've also been trying to refine my combat momentum. For the most part. It's KINDA worked, but IDK what else I can do.
My studio name is so stupid... Nobody likes it or thinks its cool...I hate it....
sometimes Game Dev feels like you're in the Underdark and Joji Music is Playing.https://youtu.be/z9gVoelEjws
>>566004359>studio>nameyou do have a game almost ready to go, right?
>>566004229I would select the verts on the tips of the branches and merge them. I like the atmosphere that is suggested here though. big thick trees, gives it this ancient vibe
>>566003358Asset packs have been heavily stigmatized for the past decade mainly because of Jim Sterling (god rest his soul). If you used any art assets from the store people would accuse you of making an asset flip.Only now are they not so stigmatized because AI is so much worse. At least store bought assets were made by a real person who was paid for their work. AI is more like ripping assets from other games. Its theft.
Some Underdark Music:https://youtu.be/p1LUmy_tWrkthere will be a biome in my game where Gnomes commune eat jam in belly-like homes.
>>566004359I just made up a dev name and that's my 'studio'. 'RM120' didn't hinder RM120 at all. you don't need a name.

>>566004229God what am I going to do?I feel like something is fundamentally missing from enemy attack reactions and I’m not quite sure what it is.That’s my problem, every time. It’s me not being sure as to what the fuck I actually need to do. There are so many things I could do, but I’m not sure which one is correct.

>>566011059I wish I had 10% of your confidence so I could shill my game despite it being shit no one cares aboutteach me, sensei
>>566011059sadly not my artist is way too fucking slow
>>566011489Many such cases. There's always next year maybe.
here we go again, another day of being a failure...>nearly 40 years old>kissless virgin>living with mom>a collection of shitty prototype projects in unity and godot that went absolutely no where.
>>566012484At this point you'd have more dignity being a hobo
>>566012484just keep lifting and stacking money, bro. men peak in their (late) 60s
maybe I should get back on goypills SSRII'm mad at so many things, and sad, and depressed. I can't dev anymore, I just escape to gaming. And I NEED to dev in order to earn money to fix stuff. there is no external help and no one but call centers will hire me.
>>566012484>nearly 40 years oldWealth of personal life experience and maturity built over many years.>kissless virginNo distractions or being forced to share half your personal time with someone else.>living with momNot having to worry about rent or food, 100% locked in. >a collection of shitty prototype projects in unity and godot that went absolutely no where.A diverse portfolio of different genre projects from which you have learnt. You should now be able to easily figure out what you're good at and what you're not good at, and in what direction to go with your next game. 100% GMI material. You just need to actually go there and make life give you what's yours by claim.
>>566013460anon handing out white pills like candy
I think I'm getting close
>>566013758Uh oh meltie
>>566013206>engagement farming
>>566003358because somehow it's okay to pay the artist 25 dollars for the art for a game that made a billion but it's not okay to use AI to generate art that looks like no specific artist's art for a game that made 1000 dollars
>>566002295progress, still giga wip but yeah multi colored hairs
>>566012484sounds like you're not cut out to be a gamedevtime to find a wageslave job so you can suffer in poverty your entire life and take care of your mom once she retires you better do it because she took care of your loser ass for 40 years
>>566014284See >>566014052
>>566003358They do, sometimes.The big difference is, if you use asset packs or steal art off of google images, you're still using actual art and at worst you're just commiting an IP offence or making a meme game cobbled together from mismatching assets.If you use AI art then instead of taking that art off google images you're throwing it through a slop filter and using the eye-straining, half-melted gunk that comes out the other side, and it'll still be cobbled together and mismatching.Basically. Just steal art or you have no balls.
>attention whores>ecelebrities>AIthis thread is the holy trinity of dogshit at only 50 posts
>>566014338
gossiping about ecelebs is bad enough but now you're gossiping about literal who nodevs
now that branno released a flop with 2 reviews, will he grow humbler and stop giving worthless advice?
>>566015661lol no it's pathologic same as betz
How do we fix v3 and get Betz out of it because I like the concept I just hate who's behind it.
>>566015990what exactly do you like about the concept, looks like troonshit and is dead
>>566016019I like the themed showcases, the skits in-between the trailers is nice because it breaks up just a back to back dump of trailers but overall, it's nice to see an /agdg/ showcase get more than 50 views. You do support the idea of more devs getting attention right?
>>566013758>here's the deal
>>566016269>You do support the idea of more devs getting attention right?attention from whom?
>>566012484just finish one of your damn prototypes, like just do it
progressleft is size 1 (if the player is nearly flat)now that I'm doing size 5, there's no reasonable way I can stretch it to fit without it being just a torn strip so I'm going to reason that two of them get used to make the top, and even then it's a stretch. Thought about adding in a second layer underneath, too.
New to this thread. Here's my work.No engine, all in C/GLFW3/OpenGL, all my code including shaders and physics.I have a full time job as a software engineer in a S&P500 company, wife and kids so not much time, doing this mostly for fun.Project goals:>Space RPG, asteroid mining, ship scrapping>Character must eat, drink, sleep, survival mechanics similar to Project Zomboid>Need to make money to buy food, water etc>Need to mine, sell at market price, scavenge ship wrecks>Infinite randomly generated map>Can pilot ships top down as in screenshot, can also walk around ship deck in 3PV>NPCs with hopefully complex personalities (I have some cool ideas, doing some experiments on the side)Status:>Map generates randomly using a Perlin noise for asteroid density>Ship is controllable, has fuel and battery, can dock to stations with a basic docking request system>Can exit cockpit and walk aroundWIP:>Map editor for stations and ship interior>Ore mining mechanic>Damage on collisions
>>566017067>I have a full time job as a software engineer in a S&P500 company, wife and kids so not much time, doing this mostly for fun.I hate you already but okay, go on...>Project goals:>cool stuff that appeals to meI will buy your game
>>566017067>proc gen, survival mechanicsThat's a pretty big scope. Doable if you keep the graphics on that level, most likely
I caved and decided that I definetly do want the player to be able to choose between first and third person
Now I think about it, proc gen is works out a lot better if you have a lot of coding experience. You can do it regardless of experience, it's just that the more complicated it becomes, the more important your architecture is for resolving it.
AI still can't make animated videogame sprites, lmao.

>>/v/738268037according to steamies, a "hidden gem" is a game with 1000+ reviews that made a million dollars...
>>566018818fuck off already gogem you retarded nigger
>>566018818And that's basically the truth. Only here sub 1000 reviews are a success. Everyone wants their game to sell over a million copies, have four digits reviews and be capable to chill and dev for the next decade.'it's fine ;^)' devs are lyars
>>566019032this poster is low IQ

>>566019459hi gogem!
>just make sure your game is polished and bug-freedo 30k review games really?
why have bugs in the year of our lord gaben 2026? just use AI to fix them
Fucking hell I thought I had seen all the manmade horrors already with gore and diaper fetishists and more nasty shit but then today I encountered some vile japanese fetish I hadn't even heard of before. I wasn't even searching for anything sexual, just trying to find assets to use for my game. It's like when i saw my first gore shock video as a kid i just have this awful image in my head i cant forget now.
>>566020396Which one was it? Presumably not the sensory deprivation pit. maybe dickneck? Nah, probably the personality excretion, right?
>>566020897That green black parasite worm that infests slugs irl
Did Gabe Newell invest money into LLM and AI companies, such that Valve or Valve-approved companies could automatically write better and more authentic-seeming fake positive reviews in multiple languages for high-profile games that had unofficial agreements with Steam? For games that were trash, but where it was judged that a lot of fake positive reviews would work to ensure sales and keep up appearances?Is Olden Era such a game? The high positive review rate there is strange, considering how many people encounter lots of issues with bugs, gameplay, multiplayer crashes, graphics, story, campaigns, music, basically everything.
>>566021159>Did Gabe Newell invest money into LLM and AI companies"Gaben never did that! He would never do that! He is my friend." - exclaimed the steamie.

DUDE ECELEBS LMAOOOOholy fuck can you faggots go to a discord and jerk each other off there instead? this thread is supposed to be about videogames

somehow the older i got the more i notice when someone is trying to make me think a certain way or about a certain topic, that i personally wouldn't think about just living my normal life.i keep wondering how someone would think about those topics if media/forums wouldn't suggest them to think about it.and if you spend too much time there, your head is filled with topics that aren't yours.
The discord was a mistake
>>566021368>pings me for literally no reasonyou shills really are the worst

>>566022276that applies much more to you,c though? nice self-own lul
>>566021076Oh, that one, yeah that's weirdly popularI don't really like how they replace the eyes in that fetish quite often. I don't like the face being messed up.In general it doesn't appeal to me even though it should, I'm not sure why. I think I specifically don't like making characters stupid (intelligence loss)
>>566022410what are you even yapping about you boring poser?
>>566002451>Make millions>still use stolen Lonami asset single image sprites>make a whole IP and a sequel with it with same assetsgame dev is not fair

this you?
i think that what really ruins your mind is arguing and fighting. because it trains your brain to function in a way that doesn't work with creating a game. arguing and fighting is a state of mind where your iq usually drops and it becomes more about fight or flight responses.this might also be why so often it's said that "boredom makes you more productive". i think it's also because boredom is relaxing. if you aren't involved in any fights or arguments you become more relaxed, because there's no trouble around you.so maybe the problem isn't social media, movies and games in general. the problem is when they contain violence and arguing. it conditions your brain to fight and not to create.
>>566014052betz or the poster?
>>566023756Nope, I'm replying to the post I mean to reply and I'm also not gogem.
>>566024391>I'm also not gogem
>>566023158If you want to talk religious about it, it's those that cast their gaze away from the devil who won't know true evil when they see it.We have a big problem where governments have started to regulate fictional depictions of vile acts but not the actual real life equivalent. Drawings of people get more legal protection than the people themselves. Rape gangs are allowed to reign whilst implying that rape exists in a game would get you banned.It's true that violent people tend towards playing violent games instead of non-violent games, for example, but it's not proof that violent games turn people violent, plus it keeps violent people distracted from commiting actual violence.Extreme shit in art is a necessary evil to keep the real evil contained.
>>566021708Nope, kill yourself and your kindred before that.
AI is a waste of time.It tricks you is faster, but it just deliver worse results than doing it by hand and it just take less time and less complications to just do it manually.t. has tried to use AI art and AI code in my workflow process instead of posting AI chud comics.
>>566025697Every company is letting go of programmers and it's impossible to get any jobs unless you're a senior or worked at Google/Amazon/Netflix etc. The actual job market disagrees with you.
why can't tim just hire the sims devs who made the character creator and implement that into unreal?
>>566025839all the companies that use AI are now rehiring workers because AI delivers worse results than a human.chud.
>>566025905What's the use case for that?
>>566025697I half agree. I find AI to be detrimental when I use it to start a project, because like you said, hand crafted code is typically easier to understand and remember.But once you have all the systems in place, AI becomes a content machine. And it will mostly conform and use the stuff you created by hand, so it all will make logical sense to you.
>>566025989AI content is just slop.
>>566025982If that's the case then how come nobody I know in the field can get a job? All applications get straight up ghosted.
>>566025982It's very funny how people read a few headlines and think they know how the entire industry is going.
>>566026114>>566026145an MIT study found that 98% of AI projects only lose money.
>>566026106Well obviously you don't let the AI decide what the content should be.
>>566026305
>>566025985Where does the Linux use case meme come from? 4chan or somewhere else?
>>566026573
>>566026850There's a Gnome/GTK developer who is very opinionated about how things should be so he keeps removing features from the Gnome apps/DE (like removing solid color wallpaper option or removing playlist feature from the music player because that doesn't belong in a music player, just click on the song file you want to play after each song :^)), and every time people bring shit up he just replies with "what's the use case for this feature?" etc. This is just /g/ meme mocking the guy.Most of his takes are completely unreasonable like this shit: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/work_items/3787#note_1104303
>>566026114You are lying.

>>566018389Which does not exist yet
>>566028797a-at least it's not ai...
>>56602879799% of artists use reference. Being able to completely draw, at high levels, without using any reference is an extremely rare skill very few artists actually have.You need to draw and paint to a degree that's unimaginable to the average person/non-artist mind.Copying a pose is extremely harmless. Copying character design, character ideas, character models, that's a whole other topic.
>>566023850Name 3 AI games in /AGDG/ submissions.
>>566028881>yet
>>566029357it's true, poses are not copyrightable. but in 2020s there are so many ways to create reference(with or without AI), there was no need for this. the artists is flat-out retarded

>>566029617If you use Windows you used AI in your game, period.
>>566028797>OH MY GOD vampire survivors used a ton of references?? NO WAY! I thought it was 100% pure from-the-mind pixels! I'm so betrayed the pinnacle of 2D art, Vampire Survivors, would do this to us!
aren't all major engines full of AI code now?
>>566031684cognitive-dissonance-intolerant anons will argue how it actually is the pinnacle of 2D art because how else could it have been so successful

>>566035019It's really cute.
>>566036761Localhost is a loopback address that tells a computer to connect to itself, using that IP I cannot connect to your game unless I was running an instance of your game on my own computer. To allow others to connect to the instance you have on your computer you need to expose the relevant port to outside connections (which in this case appears to be port 6000) and provide to players your public global IP address.

Unsure if it's worth pursuing this prototype anymore. I've got the basics done, but there needs to be a good amount of balancing, and I don't know if there is enough juice to squeeze out of it gameplay wise.
>>566038268It is not a skill issue, the assignment of localhost to the loopback address is defined by Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standards, primarily codified in RFC 1122 and RFC 5735
>>566038268try hard mode
>>566002295So did he have no vision for the game as a whole or just no vision for balancing? Because that's two completely different things. I can't be bothered to read the actual clickbait article considering that the article's standfirst already contradicts the headline.
