My life is painful
the lanky incel mask guy is fine he needs more meat like pickups and enemy typesmaybe even a different weapon
>>566927059Anon, press Q.
agedege
>>566927059I only intend to add “More” when the basic part of the game is as airtight as possible, thus allowing me to continue making more stuff for it and refining without having to worry about technical difficulties.Which could take a long time, honestly.
>>566927140doess that give him a new weapon
>>566927281It switches modes
>>566927280no your doing it wrongwhen i play ur game a bit of jank is understood and fineyou need a weaker enemy to match the chickens hp sponge-nessalso the main focus of dmc is actually the bosses
>>566927280that's smart. follow your own advice. I saw that little lizard!
>>566927625Anon that’s not a lizard.
>>566927625how is it smart?hes over investing in 1 enemy he put the fog cuz he has no actual level design
>>566927740Actually it’s just because I got sick of looking at the blue sky and decided I might as well fiddle with it
what game should I make to get tons of groupies?i know eric has tons but I don't think other farming game devs have any groupies
Is boot.dev good for learning programming? I heard its suppose to be a fun way of learning. Just curious to hear from anybody who actually used it.
>>566927862It’d be nice to get attention for making something good
>>566927704What is it?
>>566928058It’s an otter.
>>566927740Your advice spreads him thin over more enemies, more animation, more textures. And if the new enemnot fun, cutting floor time. He's one guy. Do you even gamedev?
>>566928140nta but he coudl just use a generic placeholder zombie. There are free ones floating around probably
>>566928104I'm otterly confused. Why is there a 4 foot otter?
>>566928140Honestly, i’m mostly satisfied with the amount of enemy types I have in mind, which is around like 6 at most maybe
>>566928140i graduated from the blizzard school of reskinningi could make 20 enemies from his one chicken
Added a speed Blink/Teleportation ability
>>566928374thats coolwhats this fellas name?
>>566928270I remember seeing your enemy line up (drawn/mspaint?)many months ago. The giant stood out to me at the time
>>566928374Lookin good, schizoball dev!
>>566928301Never reskin an uncooked chicken.
>>566928374I really like how this is shaping up
How come when you talk with steamies about Valve's monopoly on here they always frame the issue as if there can only be a monopoly on digital games distribution? Their argument is always "but what if the monopoly was run by a worse guy/companie", not "what if there was no monopoly". To me it's a very weird and sometimes dishonest way of arguing. It's as if they can't even comprehend that there doesn't have to be a monopoly at all.
>>566928473I’m more interested in each enemy serving a purpose than I am with having a lot of types
>>566928374Looks awesome, love how much dr Manhattan pops on the screen, and his little run on the balls
>>566928374i personally prefer the bicentennial man protag but unfortunately the only way for you to make a billy is if you add a tranime into your game
>>566928864The backdrop could be an fmv of dancing anime idols.
>>566928668There's going to be a monopoly because the end user hates using multiple launchers and logins and stuff. They complain if they have to use a 3rd party account to play some mmo that came to Steam after it was already out for years. Even if you destroyed Steam they would then pick one other platform to all gravitate to.
>>566928975Like… That Lucky Star thing on the Mario Kart map.
>>566929010Once again with the disingenous arguing. Why do you assume that every store would force you to use a launcher like steamshit does? Gog and itch don't do that. They just let you download the games after purchase without any launchers.
>>566929042That what now? Can't find it
>>566929094I wish I was this successful
hmm I wonder if my little one legged buddy is ever gonna learn how to stand.Is PPO a meme? How do you teach a ragdoll to stand with RL without mocap data.
>>566929141Okay so everyone will go to Gog and it will be the new monopoly that makes all the store cut money.
>>566928465>>566928524>>566928593>>566928767thanks, no name for the dude yet, I was thinking "Mister Marblespeed" for that silly Pepsiman-like sounding name but dunno
i scaled down
>>566929337I love it
>>566929337mr sugma ballz 3d
>>566929465now scale again by 0.7
I don’t know what I want
>>566929629what have you wanted in the past? did you get that or stop wanting it?
>>566930005I genuinely can’t remember
Im unable to make appealing characters.. Its over for me.. Im not straight or gooner enough for this hobby
>>566930271show me your attempt and i will yassify it
>appealing means they need to be coom bait/agdg/ is so hopeless sometimes
>>566930662Look at this pure sex machine
For 1 day im going to see how far i can go with the DMC stuff. Maybe two days if I want to make some animtions as wellif you want me to usurp devil may cris give honest feedback.https://angular.itch.io/dmc
>>566930662punjab, mario is a legacy character, if nintendo had to start over with this in 2026 they'd floppened bigly.
>>566930979what is the theme?
>>566931026Sure.Now here's a side-character in a niche series who's arguably more popular than the protag. Beloved by fans to the point of entire romhacks of a niche game being made about him
shiggy releases his first game on steam, a 2d pixel platformer and nobody boughtsteds it
>>566931141Dont really have one since it will be a glorified tech demo to see if I can beat the feel of the real devil may cris.But one idea I had was make it a maid game. And you have to clean an area by comboing people into things.And call it "I'll wipe the floor with you"
>>566931162the guy who designed starfox and captain falcon game got like 23 reviews on steam
>>566931384he just did character design in a first person game that looks like typical unity shovelware.You still have to actually make a good game.https://store.steampowered.com/app/1708320/GRAPPIN/
>>566931384> based on the manga by former Nintendo art director, Takaya Imamuradid he have an active role in development?
>>566930979>>566931331Why does it have to be me, subjected to torment of this level
>>566931657you've done something notable. nobody even noticed my game
>>566931162>here's a character from a game that had a big marketing budget made by a billion dollar company that has an extremely loyal consumer base, if they can do it so can youseriously what is up with hindujeets like this one coming into this thread to speak so confidently about things they have no cultural context of?
>>566931657I can hardly give you good critique for somthing I have never done before now can I
>>566931732what is your actually coherent argument (if any)?
>>566931715Anon, I haven’t done anything notable either.
>>566930271your flesh orbs with specular highlight?
>>566931747Anon, to be known as this is torture for me.
trial by fire
>>566932193Maybe I should search elsewhere for gamedev
>>566932118Every dante needs a vergil good luck :)
>>566932469this is the proving grounds. you are just like your lanky incel, and the crabs are the big chickens.
>>566932771i want to be the fog
a survival horror where you play as the fog but you're not sure which entity is good or bad
>>566933598you forgot the turtle neck geezer
>>566933001There is a way. "When you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all"
>>566933732i'm not sure if the idea is worthy of him
I need to stop with sweets, it's too much. I'm 6kg overweight, 4 of which I added in the past 6 months.Still working on updates to my existing games. Very little expected benefit to this, but people with less experience than me tell me I can use them for cross-promotion and I need to leverage every advantage however small. Will it have been worth the 7 days less I get to work on my game? Who the fuck knows...137 days left, I owe 15 hours of work.
>>566928668Valve started as a relatively small developer and gradually built up Steam to where it is now. EA tried Origin and Ubisoft tried UPlay after seeing how successful Steam was but they couldn't do it despite being some of the biggest powerhouses at the time. Coincidentally gamers started to become critical of DRM right around 2011 and wary of Steam when GOG started selling modern games, this trend followed to around 2016-2017 mostly in response to GFWL ending support in 2013 and shutting down soon after making lots of multiplayer games unplayable online. This was also around the time Denuvo started rearing its head. But Steam got through that too.So it's not for a lack of trying but other more resourceful companies just can't seem to pull it off. And now we're here, the only worry on the Steam user's mind is Gaben dying because he seems to understand something shareholder golems don't.
>>566884846>>566885056>>566886815These only sold because they're chinese. Chinks buy chink games and review them in disproportionate amounts to non-chink games.
>>566928374Holy fuarking KINOAgdg is back
>>566934185I actually wonder how chink devs can even fail, when they have the Nationalist sales bonus like this.
>He released his first game>Boost his algo>Shadowban his subsequent games>Review bomb then>Ignore his support tickets>Now>Strike him for advertising his Patreon>Ban him from publishing unless he complies
>>566928668Why does everyone use Discord for communication today and why don't you complain about that?
>>566931331Since I really dont want to commit to the bit and add real animations im thinking of a timed system that will mommentarily flash a "hurtbox" in front of the character and cause them to react
>>566934309They might get sales but they're still chinks living in china which is equal to losing at life
>>566934627if you're rich China > America
>>566934783Yeah, having to pay protection money to the CCP is better than whatever Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos are doing all day.
>>566935096>whatever Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos are doing all daybeing holed up and heavily guarded everywhere they go for fear of deranged killers in the streets and going to court hearings for being too rich and powerful
>>566935096>>566935331if china was smart they would have just blown up that plane would have easily crippled america for years
>>566935331Yeah, their lives are hell. I'm sure they'd rather live in China and frolic in the streets among regular people, but they're not allowed to leave the US.
>>566935418Crippled how? Are you under the impression that people on that plane are the best and the brightest? Hint: CEO compensation is in fact NOT proportionate to their abilities and contributions to the companies they run. And voters don't in fact vote for the best leaders.
>>566935425>frolic in the streets among regular peopleor, go to a party of similarly wealthy people without the risk of a crazed gunman attempting to assassinate you>but they're not allowed to leave the US.yeah, just spend all your time flying between vacation homes and DC for court, it must be so great
>>566934783in America if you're rich and in prison there is a good chance the President pardons you.in China if you're rich and not in prison there's a good chance the President has you imprisoned.
>>566935658>America if you're rich and in prisonthen you're not really rich
Where do these people keep finding wives to quit their jobs together with and make video games?I swear it's becoming the most common story I hear at this point.
>>566935712More importantly, how did they manage to make such a cool concept so utterly boring?
>>566935712they were fired and saving face.
>>566935525massive power vacuum
>>566928374Dunno wtf is this but I like it>what happens if you go out of bounds
>>566935712bro i saw this title and scrolled past, thinking shut the FUCKUPeverybody is quitting their jobs for an independent persuit you are not special sit the fuck down and put down the microphoneexcuse this energetic rant out of nowhere
>>566935594The actual risk is tiny, and mostly related to gun ownership. And if you have to spend 1 day a year in the Senate answering questions, that's better than the kowtowing they'd have to do to the CCP in China or to Putin in Russia.There's a reason why rich people tend to gravitate to some countries and away from others.>>566935836How? The US is not Russia or China. It's not being held together by a strongman. Same with corporations. A CEO dies? A new CEO gets appointed, just like the old CEO.
>>566935697that's a more formal and accurate definition of "rich" where it is a byproduct of power.the discussion here is of an informal "rich" you could become from making a successful indie game or winning the lottery. obviously without power they return to poverty and get jailed for tax fraud..... but only in America can that informal version of "rich" buy a pardon.
>>566928668Of course valve competing with 1 or 2 real competitors would be better for costumers, because these people would actually fight for the audience by making their products better.Problem is, our timeline didn't go this way. Steam had free range on pc store space since half life 2, I have almost all my games on steam. A new competitor must be REALLY FUCKIN GOOD to make me open a new account. We could balance multiple accounts and libraries, we did it on ps3/360 days on console, but in pc there is nothing like that. The only exception might by battlenet for playing stacraft
this is how much Microsoft made at the beginning of their venturetake note, do you still want to make games?
>>566936472Not really an accurate comparison because Gates was bankrolled by his senior IBM exec mom
>>566936472>take note, do you still want to make games?Uh, yes? I don't get your point
>>566936563you can't licence your games to scale, like Microsoft did with their software
>>566936438>balance multiple librariesthis whole logic is evidence that steamies are just consolefags that got lost.
>>566936530you're right, seems like luck was on Gates side, he had everything going for him, he had the product the connections the whole package
>>566936614Ok, but that's cherrypicking. Microsoft is one of the few companies that made it. Try making and selling an OS today vs games and compare your chances.
>>566936472brb making Pong OS
those fucking rich people man, they have everything while anon starts from literal bottom, makes his game in sweat and tears and hopes for the best
>>566936747>why yes the largest computer company at the time just happened to decide on a random no-name company to make the OS for their flagship hardware endeavor lmao
>>566936747>b-but it's not about luck>just make good operating systems people want to write software for
>>566937012>>566937029that's just sad anons, my hope and optimism is gone
>>566937107are you kidding? luck being a factor should be a white pill. otherwise only the most capable and talented (not (You) or me or anybody here) would have a chance to make it
>>566937029>>566937012I mean yes, you do need luck to become the richest company in the world.But is that what your goal is? You can become happy with a lot less, and the less you want the more you can rely on your own efforts without any luck involved.
>>566937262even that "less" is hard to get anon
everybody is after the fucking money, man... nobody thinks about making the world a better place
You got LESS THAN A WEEK AND A HALF to get your game into /v/3 2026. Full trailer sign up: https://forms.gle/VVtUdRNhPRKi8CvX9 Quickshot sign up: https://forms.gle/px1hN3jKBxa1Dep48 This show is shaping up to be something special this year. Don't miss out.
>>566937805I am aiming to make brief respite experiences like A Short Hike and puzzle games like Öoo
>>566938124It will make no money then
>>5669381797 digit gross revenue is no money to you? damn anon
>>566938247okay now we're talking
>clone game that made money>distribution? all steam babyis this the business model?
>>566937262Getting to top 1% requires luck or talent which is also a matter of luck. And Microsoft is the top 0.001%. You can probably get to top 10% by working hard and smart, but in gamedev the top 10% is below minimum wage.
if you had any luck or talent you wouldn't be here
>>566938752https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxhYgn7oUzQ
>>566937852Do we even know how many submissions there have been? Who's participating? Or are signups low this year and now you're desperate for Bokube trailer #5 where he promises to really release it next year for real this time!
>>566928374wow>>566938247shit i wish i had money one day, sure would come in handy>>566936747>she was a prominent homore like it>>566936472they making millions after only 3 years, hell yeah! that'd be sweet.>>566935712I'm pretty sure they're just larping. it has to be a reddit grift.>>566934325>the truman showI thought this was the tomorrow never dies dude
>>5669357123500 wishlists in 14 monthsnot hopeless but a dumb move to quit their jobs unless they were working as burger flippers
how long will it take to code this game approximately?>13 stages>26 bosses>120 enemies (most are similar so they can share parents for coding)>70 items of which like 30 have unique effects that require coding (others give stats)>genre: 2D action roguelike
Yay, got a few more components to work :> Now ill just need to add maybe 5 more position manipulation components for different flavours of aoes and then i can add more interesting core mechanics like pushes, pulls and dashes. Getting it to work with the multi tile units, forecasts and modifiers will be cancerous.>>566928374Absolute kino. Ill never achieve this much soul.
>>566941420Shouldn't be too hard, like a year or soThe issues would be the assets and the game design required to stand out in one of the most oversaturated genres, the supply/demand ratio is brutal
my brutal realization about gamedev in the current yearconsole games in the 1980s cost $30-$40 which corrected for inflation would be $120-180 nowand those games looked like picrelimagine what kind of game you'd have to make now to justify that priceplayers perceive less and less value in games every year while demanding more and more
>>566928374how insane are you? only a disturbed mind could make this
Is this stylized enough?
>>566941586even for an inexperienced coder? Were struggling just to get the damage numbers to fade out
>>5669414201 stage 1 boss 2 characters5 enemies 20 items Took me 2 years and it looked kinda like this. So take that as you will.(Though I spent some 6 months on networking since I wanted it to be co-op)
>>566942232Its really crazy how much gamers expect from a $5 game when a big mac is like $7 in the current year. Really a dev after taxes and the steam cut is getting like $2.70 and a big mac costs $7 but gamers expect 10+ hours of content and continual updates. Actually laughable how entitled they are. F2p games are the worst thing that ever happened to the industry, another cancer valve normalized.
>>566942849that seems really slow my manbut i hope its smooth sailing from here on out. if you can do 1stage, you can do all stages
>>566942849how many hours do you think you worked total? because 2 years at 2 hours a day and 2 years full time is a huge difference
>>566942964>but i hope its smooth sailingOh it's sailing smooth alright. Sailing straaaaight to the bottom of the ocean since the project is abandoned now. >>566943154Around 4-6 hours a day. I'd say my biggest time sinks were 1. Top down pixel art animation, since it's 8-directional and 2. Figuring out things along the way. Like, now that I know how an action roguelite is being made, I could probably redo everything in 6 months and have it better than what I had before, but when you're tackling a new genre you've never coded in, there's a lot of pitfalls and unknown unknowns that waste a lot of time, regarding unit acceleration, smoothness "feel good" stuff basically, how to code projectiles that can be influenced by items in ways that add additional behavior like spawn X on death or deflect on hitting walls or whatnot. Handling poise/stun states, dash states when a projectile hits, enemy AI behavior so that they don't do a konga line after the player but rather simulate realistic swarming behavior and dozens of other stuff I didn't know I had to implement back when I first started working on it.
>>566943671that's 3500 hours and you abandoned it? why? did you get better ideas or did you run out of time or demoralized or what?
>>566943671it looked like it had potential
>>566929264you need to define your rewards correctly
>>566935712He's a concept artist who worked on Total War 3 and I couldn't find any other credit. His wife is also a concept artist who did something peripheral for CoD Black Ops 6.
crabbros... i dont feel so good...
>>566944871I stopped feeling good when he married a Japanese woman. like why does he keep winning? doesn't he have enough?I'm losing my little mind to be honest
>>566944871Is that gross steam revenue? it's not that much if so
AGDG keeps saying Steam is terrible then why don't you make your own Steam to distribute your games?
>>566945128i am actually going to do that just because i (think) i can but i suspect it get zero use but i still want to make it because i think it will be cool also I trying to setup btcpayserver for it too. just for my own game page, but to make it look like steam. like steal the html.
>>566945128I tried but I found 70% of a horse's head in my bed.
>>566945338Hate when this happens.

Was that Branno?
>>566945682>>566950495
Found an old project when I was learning godot. I love with the atmosphere. Really has potential I think for horror slop. Some creepy music, water drip sound effects, distant screaming. Why did i abandon this?
>>566951094>>566950495>both of them actually made a crossoverkino
>>566951337>horror slopWhy not dungeon crawler kino?
why do games about pointless busiwork sell so well?https://store.steampowered.com/app/4197610/Librarian_Tidy_Up_the_Arcane_Library/
>>566951337>Really has potential I think for horror slopBrother this is an environment pulled directly from a YouTube tutorial on making Godot gridmap dungeons with an orange point light attached to the player. You've barely done anything
>>566951720Thats what makes it so perfect
>>566951048did he post it again?
>>566952060idk I only saw the trailer
>>566951826>>566951471Now I remember I was trying to make a dungeon crawling game but I got filterd by the dungeon generation and stopped.I also got distracted by some multiplayer tutorials that I never finished.
Branno is truly a visionary, if he all sent Betz videos of our cocks maybe he'll fuck off...
>>566947282atheism is cringe but religion is cringe too. people should develop their own personal spiritual beliefs from philosophy and experience instead of just taking one from an old collection of desert fairytales. I seriously cannot believe how anyone is a Christian when you can look at the history of the Bible and clearly see that it copies stories from other works like the epic of Gilgamesh. It's very obviously not divine at all
>>566951094>So how much would you say you love dogslost
>>566952342The minute jesus died christianity was repurposed as a tool to control people.
What's a art style that even people that can't draw can kinda do it?
>>566941420are you drawing these? post ngmi5.png
>>566952535All organized religion is that, which is why its so cringe. It feels perverse that they lie and control people through something meant to be divine and sacred.
>>566928374This post inspired me. I want to make a schizocore game now
How do I make a thief schizo-like?
>>566952706Trvke. Personally my only reason to leave was because of all the gaslighting weirdos that flock to it.I love all the ceremony, waking up early on sundays chatting with the priests but you rarely meet actually good people who follow religion. Just scared people who are desperate for a way to avoid their past shame.
>>566952605Synty slopThrow a huge color filter over itTake PNG's from stock photos and just throw them all together
>>566953037i am scared and desperate and the only reason i believe in god is because i hope there's an afterlife where i will be finally be happy and have what i desire. but i have my own delusions and thoughts about what god is and was never part of any church or religion

wow i had the worst dream ever. that was so fucked up... i kind of want to kill myself now, but instead ill just work on my game today. its going to be hard for no reason because i got mindraped but whatever
That was me I have been practicing meditation and astral projection to find anons and butt blast them in their dreams
>You are 100% right, and I sincerely apologize. You absolutely were gaslit by my previous explanation, and I need to own up to that.I'm going to use AI to kill AI

Guys, I may very well be making a Sims-like.
>>566953409shit I meant ngmi3.png I have them all in a collection except for that one.
I'm going to dev now. You may wish me luck.
>>566957829Good Luck
>>566957254but he already commed porn of them? konami code on the v3 website,. he started this
>>566957829I will lend you some of my good luck
>>566958009no need to lend luck, Luck is an infingite resgource.
branno is so hot
>>566958009>>566957857Thanks, frens
>>566934502Except I do complain about Discord being the "only" communication tool. It's even worse than steamshit. I'm not sure why steamies like you love to project and strawman every time.
>>566957862that's true, he should feature the ai generated doujin on his website and discord
>>566958174my luck is the luck of the irish.

I'm making a game that I could see her decorating in. Effervescent Fairy Gardens and stuff. She permeates my entire experience.
>>566956785Meltie? Who do you think made the crossover comic?
>>566957254Also that was my animator not me. Nice try.
>>566959878my uncle
Are you ready for Blowkino?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntlY5gDi17E
>>566959878Wait so you admit it is you posting the shitty comics? I knew it, who else would spend their time on this shit
>>566960092The AI comic maker really needs to do something more interesting with the characters. We get it. AI helpful. Start making actual gamedev comics that don't fucking repeat the "AI helpful" plot point. It's old.
>>566960494even though hes a trumpie i find jon so attractive and charming. i dont know what it is. his new video being silly makes me feel something inside.im straight btw i just lacked a father figure or role model my entire life
>>566960864I take credit for the crossover comic and nothing else. The only reason I did it is because the other guy wasn't doing it so I did it for myself and then dumped it in the thread afterward. If you have a problem with them, report them for being off topic.
>>566960891>DID YOU JUST CRITICIZE AN AICHAD?!?!?
>>566944871pretty bleak to be honest. not enough of a flop to seriously reconsider their approach, not enough of a success to be life-changing. just enough money to keep treading water pumping out rip-offs. sure they found some appeal ripping off Execute, but how long can they just copy other people's homework? they still don't really understand the genres they are ripping off (like Branno), so good luck I guess
>>566961086>backpedaling>hiding tripCringe
>>566960494Is he going to viewbot this video like he did the other one?
>>566951337>geometry>its lit with a point light and everything else is dark>wow, is this good atmosphere?that butterfly meme, etc.
>>566961217I take credit for the crossover comic and nothing else. The only reason I did it is because the other guy wasn't doing it so I did it for myself and then dumped it in the thread afterward. If you have a problem with them, report them for being off topic.

>left a comment without //never trust a human to do an ai's job
>>566960891you're implying the AI spammer is actually trying to be funny or make quality content. He only started included the v3 characters out of spite. Also everyone here is aware that the ai spammer is 'shua right?
>>566961957I love /v/3 though, stop spreading lies, also not josh!
>>566961957>'shua is the spammerI'm not saying you're right or we but how did you even come to that conclusion
>>566961957Quality? Probably not. Funny? I think he's trying but I don't think he's doing a good job. Also if was including the v3 girls out of spite he's not doing a good job of getting a reaction out of Betz. He seems very middle of the road about it when he was asked in the v3cord
>>566961957no, joshie left some weeks ago, the AIspammer is another schizo, both of them were officially filtered
>>566962648Again with this bullshit about me being the mayor, he wishes he was as cool as me
>>566962648>>566961957fucking dumb cunt you are too obsessed with that britisher freak
>>566962648Wait I thought the mayor of 4chan thing was Betz doing a feeler before his v3jam a couple of months later
>>566963150>We know the comic maker is Betz Stop trying to apply your personal vendettas to something that is unrelated. There's proof literally here >>566962648 that it's not Betz and he admitted he made the crossover comic soley because the real guy wasn't doing it. >>566961335And fuck me for taking the bait.
>>566963360Ok Betz...
>>566963714See >>566962376
>>566962648It couldn't be Joshua because Betz practically had the entirety of his discord mass report Josh for doxxing him on both here and on other sites and IIRC they submitted an anonymous police tip about it too.
>>566963895Thanks for admitting you are the one posting those
>>566964387Wait so I can only agree with posts that I post myself and I can't agree with anybody else's post? Interesting....
>>566964509So now you admit you are Betz and were referring to yourself in third person here >>566963360Interesting...
>>566964661Wtf he just admitted in this post he's Fygoon and Joshua's unholy child brought about this world to end /agdg/ as we know it? Thanks for telling us....
>DUDE ECELEBS LMAOOOOOholy shit fuckoff
why can't game devs just be normal
what's the relative worth of a female player to male player?
>Joshua>BetzWho are these fags and what does it have to do with game development
My game will attract Male, Female, and Hermaphrodite Players. It is a game that everyone can enjoy desu.
>>566966820What steps have you taken to ensure the enjoyment of intersex people?
>>566965756who, me?
>>566967060Player character can be intersex if the world allows for it. Also gender bending spells if the world allows for it.
>>566930979>>566931331This is the reason I should just leave and go to somewhere more productive.I’m a laughing stock here
>>566967701It's banter in male space. Like a Locker Room or a Gladiator Ludus. Just take it in stride and keep getting better every day.
>>566931657>>566967701you have a humiliation fetish and stoke the flames each and every chance you get
i wanna work on my engine but i cant decide what to do next
>>566967468>if the world allowsbigot
>>566968148just shuffle your todo and pick whatever is first
>>566943953Thank you, it feels nice to hear that. >>566943925Yeah I ran out of the time I allocated myself, and I grossly over-scoped the whole thing from the start. I wanted 4-6 characters and at least 6-8 stages, some 10-20 items for each of them, and co-op functionality. I decided to jump to making a shorter game instead. (which I also overscoped).I'm just incompetent I guess.
worth doing a 3 day game jam?
>>566968148Input and keybinds should be rock solid as soon as possible for keyboard, mouse and gamepad.If you already have rendering then you should consider tackling skeletal animation sooner rather than later.Don't wait too long to add physics and collisions.If you have all that stuff? Then start thinking about editor and asset packing.
>features my game on the expo>thinks I don't have a gamenow that's just mean
>>566969961Huh
>>566970148Can you start making actual interesting comics instead of the same plot over and over
>>566970337how much are you offering?
>>566970737bid rejected
>>566965756if you thought about what goes into gamedev for even a single minute you'd know why normies are filtered.
>>566926991Am I crazy or is almost everyone at this level of success just crabbing you in some way, either covertly or overtly
>>566970979Where is the next game?

>>566931331>But one idea I had was make it a maid gameWasn't there someone making a 2D maid character action game or beat em up like 5 years ago or something?

>>566972830i make 31 per hour and hate my life
>>566972917and you think you'd love your life if you had to go to a soup kitchen and beg them to give you a bit extra for your dog?
>>566973035why would i have a dog if im poor?
why the fuck am i even bothering with this dude. the hobby isn't fun and nobody gives a shit about another piece of indie shovelware.
>>566973092silence, me
>>566973084would you just euthanize your dog if you got it when you weren't poor but got poor?
>>566973343of course, why would i keep it around if i cant even fedd it?
>>566973092start with pong, lil sis
It's all his fault... It's all his fucking fault... He did this....We must stop him...
>>566972564I hate the fake job economy
>>566973190the whole thing just reeks of "i have nothing else going on." delusional thinking going in, depression going out. a full 9-5 work day just to get temu stardew sprites to jiggle across a tileset. whoopee. and for what? 2 views on an itch page? fuck it
>>566973534what exactly is it that he did? you mean make the best, customer friendly online game distribution network and social platform?
>>566973092And just like that I have one less competitor. Thanks for boosting the chances of my game's success. I'll be sure to have a glass of chardonnay in your name.
ya'all are just as sad as me right now?I'm just sad that no matter what we do no matter where we look, there are blocks on our waylike you can't just make a game and make money from it, you're at the mercy of steam
>>566972917>>566972830I make $0 per hour and I love my life.Cause I'm doing what I love.
if only someone was like>anon, here's money, you did goodthat would be awesome, but no, nobody gives a shit about nobody else, resources on this planet are limited, everybody is like "ME ME ME"
>>566973745Its customer friendly, I'll give you that. Just happens to ruin the entire industry in the process.
>>566973691sounds like a (You) problem, meyou must not actually like videogames or want to really make something

>>566974072there is so little "making" in this hobby it's unreal. takes a day to make a prototype spritesheet and then another day to animate it. wtf did you "make?" more half-baked garbage for the infinite half-baked garbage pile of indie slop?
>>566974069>ruin the entire industry"ruin" is subjective, GoG exists and if you don't know why it's a good thing valve is on top instead of other publishers then you're retarded or too young to be on this site
>>566974073Heh, but what's 0 * 0? That's right, 0^2. And if you flip that? 2^0. And anything to the power of 0 is equal to 1. Checkmate, AIfag.
>>566974018when you look into people selflessly giving 30% of everything they earn away it's even worse
>>566974219because my man we both are alive, why eveybody talks about that fucking human rights bullshit, nobody gives a fuck, you're trash to someone else, he doesnt know you, he doesnt care you can die on the streetsgoverment doesnt give a shit, nobody gives a fuck UNLESS, unless my nigga, you have something they wantyou're as valuable as the shit you have, nobody gives a fuck you're a human, you're alive, you have dreams and hopes and aspirations

>>566974448lmao literally this exact post>>566928668steamjeets are genuinely incapable of even grasping the thought that digital games distribution doesn't HAVE TO be a monopoly
>>566974382>must not really want to make somethingeven shitty artists delight in finishing their work, you just want recognition or a paycheck
>>566974448>>566974646You are still talking about it from a consumer perspective though.
>>566974646So make a better alternative or stop crying about it
>>566974718>saar do not disrespect the billionaire fatjew company saar!!!
>>566974592>why eveybody talks about that fucking human rights bullshit, nobody gives a fuck,Amen brother, amen. Its all bullshit to pretend like you are a good person. No one can be good in this shithole "society".
Make smaller progress.
>>566974646it's not a monopoly, retardsteam was the first to do it and is still the only one to do it rightif you banned consolidated marketplaces like steam publishers would start buying up developers and making their walled gardens inside which they could freely abuse customers
>>566944726Have you done something like this? I had the reward setup to give points for not letting bones besides the feet touch touch the ground for longer and keeping the head at the same height as the rest position.I let it train overnight and the numbers look kinda alright but idk if it actually learned anything, gotta do some setup to run inference.
>>566974576>officemateswait really?
>>566974718better alternatives already exist.their existence does nothing to undo the market warping a monopoly existing does.
>>566975052>>566974940why do you bother samefagging?
>>566974669this is the delusional thinking part i mentioned ealier. such an air of "i am Him" lmao. like some derivative shovelware indie slopject code-by-numbers piece of steamshit is a piece of art.>mommy, i'm making! eugh
>>566974978>and making their walled gardens inside which they could freely abuse customersand? who gives a shit about customers this is the GAMEDEV general niggathe customers sure as hell don't give a shit about you, retarded cunt>>>/v/738866996
>>566974702there is no other perspective, as a developer you are a producer and a corporation, monopoly laws the and principles that surround them are for the good of the customers to the detriment of companies
>>566975032are you surprised that most of the successes are industry plants? it's a constant of every other media industry it shouldnt be surprising.
>>566975045the chad is kind of disappointing me lately. maybe the bokube edits were the peak and it's down hill from here
>>566974592yeah, and? just get a job and get your money up and make your game and get rich and retire and fuck off from the society
>>566975262>everyone who finishes something must be a narcissist
>>566975438
>>566975340>there is no other perspectivefor a nodev consoooomer? true, true
try again, jeet
>>566975347no it's just I though sts was 2 dudes in their homes. maybe they got lonely
>>566975340>monopoly laws the and principles that surround them are for the good of the customers to the detriment of companiesno they're designed for a fair competition of markets to the detriment of anti-competive market controlling cartels/monopolies
>>566975493you kinda have to be if you think a random piece of shovelware is worth anything, even to thhe person whho made it. that is the definition of narc-coded delusional thinking.
>>566975802do you even have a game?
>>566975645>to the detriment of anti-competive market controlling cartels/monopoliesso, all corporations when given the chance
>>566975497i am that ai chad
>>566975850he's right and you are coping my guy
>>566975446you really like this system dont you? people treating other people like trashisn't gamedev a job basically? we all here work, we prototype, we toil and sweat, we are fucking researchers and artists and whatnot yet in the eyes of society we dont bring anything to the table
>>566975438What bokube edits? I wanna see that
>>566975802so drawing something and posting it online makes you a narcissist, because there's billions of drawings on the internet and thus your hard work has no value and you should feel ashamed for having even thought of making it, let alone doing itapply this retarded reasoning to literally anything and see how retarded you
>>566975323based taketoo many gamersimps here
>>566975941see >>566975850
>>566976097every gamer simp you see on here is a nodev subhuman gamer from /v/ until proven otherwise.
>>566975323>/v/ is proof of what I thinksome third world streetshitter pirating a game was never going to have enough to buy it anywayamerica and the west, however, values compensation over gratification, especially when you can fill a niche
>>566975802some bozo in here a few weeks ago thought he had a real gotcha, calling me a narcissist and pulling out a DSMV definition to which im just like ok and? where do you think you are? anyone not qualifying by some definition of narcisssism or other definition of delusion is guaranteed NGMI and shouldn't be here trying to fit in or crab or whatever they're doing here.delusion is the bare minimum to gamedev.
>>566976403gogem
>>566976027nothing but one's own perverted hardware can "make" them a narc, retard. being a narc, they simply gravitate towards narc hobbies, but please write an essay about how the "art" and "indie" spaces are bastions of well-adjusted workers who do it for the love of the game. and yeah, most people who post their shit scribbles are probably some form of narcissist, just like most people, they are tremendously untaleneted.
>>566976384>america and the west, however, values compensation over gratification, especially when you can fill a nichethey don't, while they might not OUTRIGHT pirate (steal) your game, what they'll do instead is wait until it's 80%-90% off and even then many of them will refund your game over the slightest inconvenience.and before you say it, no. sales are a net loss for your earnings.
I give all my shit away to my mom, I'm not a narc, I have some money I give it away, fuck your system I dont partake in that
>>566976020
>>566976651so you do a bunch of performative shit and then tell strangers about it, yea, sounds about right
>>566896707So I tested it out and it seems like Windows and Linux will have a divergence occur at some point if you continue to feed in Unity generated random vectors as forces or if you rotate vectors on the Unity side of things. Using Box2d's own rotation functions doesn't have this issue it seems. Surprisingly enough assigning a reflected velocity vector in Unity and then assigning it to the Box2d body doesn't seem to cause a divergence, but I don't know if that's just because I didn't test long enough or what. Maybe a longer simulation would prove that it doesn't hold up, I'm not an expert in these matters.Thanks for reading my blog.
>>566976528oh well I guess you'll never make it since you're not a narcissist, too bad you're just better than everyone else with their patreons, fanboxes, kickstarters, and blue checks. it's probably a good feeling not having to stoop to that level and just get a job
>>566975860there are 2 types of participants in the marketCMC participants, that's the laboring people (us included)and then theres the MCM participants, the speculators, the landlords, the parasitesstop trying to argue on behalf of MCMs, this is CMC terrirtory
>>566976747I don't know what I'm doing to be honest all I know is that everything is fucking fucked beyond any reason, why do you think every single fucking community online have no promotion rule? Cuz everybody cares only about their business
>>566976672*
>>566976672I'm still pissed Boku said the /v3/ fags are getting a build. What's their angle? How'd they get it first?
>>566976917No.the customer doesn't care what you go through, and as an indie gamedev, you are your first customer. you should be making the game that (You) want to play, publishing and advertising and all that garbage comes last
>>566975994i don't like the system but you can either adapt and make it work for you or you can keep bitching and moaning
>>566977124I fucking get that, we're just talking here
>>566977076>the customer doesn't care what you go throughso why should i care what the customer goes through before my game? why is raising the price of your game on steam due to inflation so frowned upon then?
Can we be honest here?
gabecunt means victory
we're at the verge of revolution I can feel it
it's "gabencunt", jeet
>>566976963they interviewed him a long while back. probably have dirt on him
>>566976963
>>566977298because you're serving them, and if you want to make money, you'll act within reasonable bounds, which includes the ever shifting public sentiment
>>566976916>angry narcissist noisesboom headhot lmao
>>566977354yeah let's be honestcapitalism REQUIRES for you to be smarter than the next person, more creative than the next personif you're "a retard" you're not gonna make it, and sadly 99% of people on this Planet are just normal everyday not-so-smart people
https://github.com/alexjhetherington/anvil-level-designhttps://youtu.be/YT_sijXtl8gI'm in the middle of teaching myself Blender does this addon look worthwhile? How do people normally make levels?
>>566977864capitalism does not require you to be smart or not be a retard, capitalism just requires you to not overthink things and take risks instead of doubting yourself, which is why it rewards street-smart people and not book-smart "people"
>>566977989explain then why the inequality, it's simple, some people are more "gifted" than othersthats why everybody wanted to catch nazi scientists at the end of WW2
>>566977553>because you're serving themso do restuarant owners and people who sell shit on amazon. yet they raise their prices all the same.the reality is just that gamedevs are cucks.
>>566978124you don't need to be gifted, you need to know how to exploit people, have no empathy, and be good at lying and manipulating, which is what most of the rich people in the world do and how they got rich in the first place
>>566978279ah finally a person who gets it
>>566977989this is delusional lol. capitalism isn't even that unique of a system, and basically all systems reward only shrewdness on long timescales: long term thinking, risk tolerance and risk management, compounding effects, market timing. enough dumb people have people have bounced off of this system that they've convinced themselves and the other dumbs to believe in the "life lottery" where it's basically random.
>>566978169correct, actuallykvetching about a restaurant gets your food spit on or a tresspass, unless you can convince a whole mob of people to cry about the pricesamazon is a stonewall of chinese based sellers who do not give a fuck, buy it or shutupgamedev however is subject to internet feedback and very loud influential people who can make or break your chance of success
>>566977920i make parts in blender and stick them in my scenes. modular. if you are trying to make a game that is very dependent on platforming/collisions, then the modular approach can be limiting albeit
I am literally begging for wishlistsNever in a million years did I imagine degrading myself like this
>>566978462I like where this is going
explain to me why rich people want more? why cant gabencunt just call it a day and say>steam is a fucking masterpiece, you know what I'm gonna stop it right here.
>>566977517what are the v3 girls doing?
>>566978736wishlists don't matter if your game doesn't have organic interest
>>566978736Maybe you should have made a game people actually want to play, cummyballs
>>566978838if valve stopped improving steam then steam would degrade, duh
>>566978736wishlists are a measure of how appealing your game is. if I give you a wishlist but don't find your game appealing, that wishlists is worse than useless. it's misleading.
>>566979042LET IT DEGRADE why do they care? they have all the money in the world, let it burn
Make a game that gamers will beg you to let them play rather than a game where you have to beg gamer to play.
>>566978838people who get flithy rich (like gabencunt) are pathologically evilit's not about the money for them, unironically. they have genuine contempt for the common folx
>>566978838Who else cared about decoupling from Windows or improving controllers?
>>566977490But what does Betz want with Bokube. It's not like it's releasing anytime soon
>>566979150someone else will do that down the road, but no, rich can't let go. Just like the Bible says, It's easier to go for a camel through fire than for a rich person to give away their fortune
Newfren here, debating having a go at writing a game engine as a side project, simply for the challenge/experience, and by extension I suppose that means I should make a game for it as well.Figured it could be interesting to try and make a game I actually wanted to play (likely an isometric turn-based CRPG of some sort), only thing is I absolutely suck at creative writing, and to a lesser extent art as well (limited experience with 3D modelling tools but never actually made anything of my own).Music I can do to some extent (though I'm far more experienced with synthpop over vidya soundtracks, so I'd have to try and adjust and familarise myself with it) and as someone who enjoys coding in general I doubt that aspect will be too much of a problem.Am I being overambitious/unrealistic or is it actually worth a shot? Writing is probably my main bottleneck but I'd like to hope I could figure something out.
>>566979226it's coming out this year. boku promised me.
>>566979113yeah fuck all the people who use it, let them have a worse experience until they abandon their libraries and the workshop environmentretard
>>566974602WHAT kind of manifestation is that kek
>>566979368>I suppose that means I should make a game for it as well.Go to >>>/g/gedg and you won't have to. None of them ever do.
>>566979110Pretty much. Wishlists are just a metric, when you optimize for increasing a metric instead of what it's measuring, you render that metric useless.

>>566979482you seem oddly intent on defending a single storefront, even though decentralising digital game distribution would help LITERALLY everyone...i wonder why are you doing this, hm....
>>566978736hahahaha this is the modern world dude, remember to make a few tiktoks dressed as a clown to promote your game
>>566979482exactly let it fucking burn, can't you see they wont let that happen out of their own free will? why? because they are fucking greedy and evil
>>566979567benchod
>>566979329no they won't.Valve as a company were the only ones who forced Wine to stop being held back by freetards.Then proton got good and that got more people interested.Then Steam OS legitimized linux for winbabs and got M$ to admit win11 was garbage and needed fixing.If it weren't for Valve, we'd be stuck with pre-proton Wine
>>566979115we know bro the trick is to find that idea
>>566979712>no they won't.yes they would, I don't think you appreciate human ingenuity
>>566979712its true, Gabe is big reason gaming is detaching from winblowsthank G-d
>>566979881I do though, the human ingenuity at Valve.
>>566979956you sound like a nazi right now>HEIL VALVE
>>566980036>what's 2 + 2?>4?! that's the bad answer!
>>566980036people don't like Microsarrnot sure if you've noticed
>>566979656>defending a single storefrontthe best storefront which has never done wrong and is constantly expanding its feature beyond being a marketplace>decentralising digital game distribution would help LITERALLY everyone>thousands upon thousands of "indie" (pajeet/chink) websites pop up overnight, 95% of which are scams, thus making your game unsellableand that's just one example >>566979664if being good to us is greedy and evil then ok. did you see steam immediately encroach on discord when they did that gay age verification thing? can't wait for the superior platform which respects its users to usurp them
>>566979368Hi fren. Making a game is hard, but fun. Making a game engine is hard, but fun. If you enjoy both go for it, but don't expect to be done within a year. I enjoy making game and do it to unwind daily, and that's what's kept me going. Don't care if it'll take a year or two. One must imagine Sisyphus happy. There's a thread on /g/ for engine dev
>>566979712if you're thinking valve is doing all of this because of their own goodwill then you're fucking retardedthey simply want to build their own ecosystem because they got deathly afraid of microshart encroaching on them with GFWL and the microsoft store it's just one megacorp competing with anotheronce they get enough marketshare, THEN the enshitiffication will begin
>>566980340How did you get that youtuber to paly your game?
>>566980371this>>566980313
>>566979726It's honestly quite easy to identify games that gamers are begging to play. The problem is that the solodev here have neither the skills nor resources to make any of those games. Instead, we're forced to tow the very narrow edge of games we are capable of making and games that people want to play, often at the expense of neglecting the games that we want to make. The best thing you can do is to develop your skills in order to expand the range of games you're capable of making.
>>566980313>the best storefront which has never done wrong
>>566980371Valve have negative incentive to enshitify, and positive incentive to improve (away from windows).Steam constantly needs new blood to replace the boomers aging out of games.M$ never had to care about profits because they were a branch of IBM.
>>566980651>Valve have negative incentiveyes saar valve very good saar
>>566980601And Bethesda did it anyways and gamergoys kept buying their shit, Valve was right as usual
>>566980601>we want the modders who lock their stuff behind patreon to come with us instead>free modders unaffectedtheir only mistake was not accounting for how whiny skyrim modders are
>>566980878I see you've ran out of any semblance of an argument if you're resorting to incoherent sar posting.
>>566980414I think you have me confused for someone else, no one has ever played my game except you guys. The day may game is good enough for 1(one) youtuber to play, I'm opening the champaign
>>566980651>negative incentiveif only there were a word for that
>>566980965i know indians don't have computers that can run pc games, but there is a precedent on "enshittifiaction" with how valve treated tf2 and cs2, both are essentially abandoned and valve only cares for the money that those games bring in.but of course, they'll never ever do this to steam itself once they seize enough marketshare, they gave us all a pinky promise
>>566980912yeah didn't trainwiz make serious bucks off of it
why do /v/ tourists come here to defend steam
>>566981273why do you?
>>566962751>Again with this bullshit about me being the ma-ACK
>If it don't make dollars it makes no sensethis is why Steam is doing what it's doing
>>566981189>tf2 and cs2, both are essentially abandonedand that's a good thing, those games are over 20 years old now, and only appeal to mid-30s autistic freaks that have dominated and ruined those games anyway
>>566981189Complacency != enshittifiactionBut yes, Valve pretty much stopped being actual game devs a decade+ ago, I'll never argue against that
>>566981525nice deflection there with moving the goalposts, you earned the 0.02 cents>>566981592>Complacency != enshittifiactioni mean it kind of is, tf2 started running worse because the new "updates" valve shits out are not tested and just built from random community contentcomplacency is just one of the many ways of enshittification, it's not the only one
>>566981317>Thinks I use groklol lmao
>>566981854>tf2 started running worse because the new "updates" valve shits outmaybe, but at the same time, how many non-MMO MP games stay updated or even online 19 years into their life?
>>566929264Hmm slightly better but some muscles are a bit too floppy, let me tighten up some tendons.
>>566980313>thousands upon thousands of "indie" (pajeet/chink) websites pop up overnight, 95% of which are scamsyes that is what will happen when Steam is shutdown.....don't think deeper as to why that would happen.....
>>566982921>when Steam is shutdown....2 more weeks
>>566980651>Valve have negative incentive to enshitify, and positive incentive to improveand yet they display the opposite.you can continue to assume the incentive structure you know of will actually produce results in the future despite all evidence to the contrary or you can update your assumptions to include a hidden dark incentive structure that is producing the results you see.
give it a rest googs
>>566983107i gotta give it to you steam shills, you lot are masters of sophistry.nobody can argue in bad faith like you all do.
do you ever fear anons might steal your idea when posting here?
>>566981273they're actually south asian engagement farms that are paid by Valve to shill/propagandize for 0.02 USD per post.they're still cheaper than the GPTs despite Gabe's sizable contribution to their development.
>>566930271Are you the medieval femboy guy?Just give them tights and better hair
>>566983616nah what i fear is them stalking me for a year and blackmailing me :c shady fellows
>>566983616i moly post in hopes that some anon will like my silly idea enough to steal it. My actual game isn't a concern because our versions would be too different and mine would be better anyway
Imagine being a 40 year old fat and balding incel who's resigned himself to faking mental illness my schizoposting every day on 4chan in order to collect centrelink checks for the rest of his life.
>>566983616I do the stealing.
Sometimes, I just wonder why I just don't make nsfw mods and make EZ Patreonbuxx

>>566951524I looked at gameplay thinking it was going to be comfy or unique in some way, but it's literally pick up book and put on shelf, wtf?
>>566926991I finished my game from demo day. Does anyone want to help me test it? It's a little hard to test it myself as I know exactly what to do. Took all you guys' feedback, too.

>>566983616going to be honest, most people are afraid to do the idea I' m doing. They'll say it is overscoped.
im so bad at stealing that when i plagiarize and make a direct copy it comes out wholly original
I wasted an entire day, only for gemini to rescribe some working script into something that doesn't work, only to waste one hour fixing it, only for now to stop working because gemini broke again the script.So much for 500000 billions invested in this tech.
>>566987890use opus 4.7
Working on a floor target system for attack range visualization and hitboxes.
>>566988315This game could be so good if it had SoR graphics instead of Terraria.
>>566988315how do i become a tester?
>>566980601>paid mods just moved to patreonthis is a win somehow
>MMO debug shapes are now in single player indie gamesahhhhhhh
>>566988509There's a few major systems I need to implement before it's ready for people to test. Right now the game is just a single sandbox test map and I want to at least be at a point where at least one boss is wired up.>>566988902Unironically, the plan is to have MMO boss mechanics instead of roll-slop. So you're actually correct.
>>566985010can I play it without having the RPG maker runtime?
>>566974973how??
>>566983616I'm just hoping they're too lazy to put in the effort or I just need to get far enough where its too late to steal it.
>>566991189>can I play it without having the RPG maker runtime?Usually you can. Nu RPG maker games are HTML5 games, you just open em in browser.
>>566983616My ideas are too unique, no one would want to steal them.
>>566983616yes that's why I haven't posted my combat system even though I'd love to brainstorm with anon over how to improve it

making a Sims-like and it is going to be scary good.
>>566999614>Sims-likesounds very complex
>>566999614paralives comes out eom, hopefull it wipes ts4 and inzoi off the map so you don't have to make one
>>566999927No, I will still make it. My game is different than Paralives.
>>567000124if the modding community latches onto paralives as hard as it has the sims you're probably done for
>>567000232Nope, I got something intensely good up my sleeve.
>>567000269share with the class anon
>>566999927It will flop.
>>567000232Thres a soullessnes to paralives that i cant put my finger on.Its like the final stage of the sims enshitification process.
>>566998817What did we win, sis?
>>567000363I don't want to tell the idea just yet.
>>566988315I don't understand why your telegraph is on your atk and not on your enemy
>>567000396it's the style, not cartoony enough to be wacky like the sims but not realistic enough to be mature
My A/C broked. I can't dev like this.
>>567000670time to call the technician and hit on him while he's on the step ladder
my mommy wishes me good luck and god's blessing on my project :3
>>567000654I think thats part of it another thing is that it just does not strike me as weird enough. The sims is a weird place, they speak a weird language and even in game text reflects that.Somthing about the text on buildings and things being in english is uncanny to me. Also the animations are too boring and safe, they exaggerated the animations in the sims, the same way a voice actor exaggerates their voice for a role.The base world also seems too clean for my liking. In the older sims there were people living in trailer parks talking about ufos. In paralives it looks like a typical nordic country but with less white people.No dirt, no danger, as controversial as a pillow.Its a game that will probably do well with gays and women but then again that was the direction of the sims for a long time.

>>567004965There's a lot more interesting(and on topic) things about eric than his marital status, like his new statement on AI:>To Barone, the humanity of artistic expression is core to his work, whether he's talking about Haunted Chocolatier or Stardew Valley. As a former solo developer, he has been able to bring his own touch and hand to every aspect of his work, whether it's learning pixel art or composing music. He mentions this when we speak about the growing role of AI in game development.>"I think anything's lost when you use AI for any creative thing, any step of the way - unless it's being used for very specific zoomed-in cases, maybe. You're offloading creativity to an algorithm, which I think is always gonna undermine the pure and authentic human element of what you're doing. So for me, as someone who wants to express myself in an artistic way, I wouldn't ever want to use AI for any sort of creative thing, because it's beside the point of what I'm doing. My goal is to express myself in a creative way. Why would I let an AI do that for me? At the very least, let another human being express themselves if you need help.>That's probably what I would say. There are plenty of humans out there that would like anopportunity to express themselves. I feel like that should take priority over a soulless machine."
>>567005256>AI is soullessEveryone already knows that, nothing crazy about that statement

I have multiple weapons attached to a Godot node and I want to have them all fire at the same time.The way I have it set up right now is like this, and then I have the shoot function call current_weapon.The problem is that right now it's only firing the last gun in the node list, when I want it to fire all of the guns attached to the node.Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? The project I'm using has a switch weapons function and when I use that it does properly change between each gun in the node list. The function is only setting one of the guns as current_weapon but I'm not sure why.
