I just learned an interesting Warhammer 40K fact:>In 40K there's a spiritual dimension called "The Warp">getting cybernetic modifications to your body increasingly "dims your soul's presence" in The Warp.that's a cool downside for cybernetics in any game that has spiritual/magic stuff going on too

>>567731171If you wanted to rag on the game you could always tell people about this overly long, pace-killing move. The game is full of these.
>>567731509Yeah, I don't care about the actual game itself. Looks whatever. I don't even like metroidvanias.It's about the messy interpersonal drama that crossed too many lines not to mention.It's not like I'm gonna tank their kickstarter or whatever collab they're trying to cook, as beautiful as that would be, I'm just recovering and sick of this shit. I just wanted to make my own fucking videogame about robot yaoi + dualism, that I was writing/concepting before I ever met them. It's entirely fucking different, so the fact they roped me into this shit is insane.
bastard bitch! the gabencunt fuck delistered my basterd game and now i wont be able to participate in the betz sale! basterd bitch! why u do this to me, basterd???

>>567732804I'm a game development student that was concepting a project about robot yaoi + dualism. Arc-Type Androids, Fort Bastiani, two robots, teal dude named Six and a pink dude named ... Pink. I got overexcited and blabbed about it to anybody who'd listen, including 4chan here. Years ago at this point, which is important. This was because I told myself I had two years to make something or i'd off myself, which is a whole story in itself but I digress.It just so happened some local developers were working on an under wraps game called Shade Saga and got extremely interested in my concepts, even offered me a mentorship with BeserkBoy Games! Hooray!During which, a pitch doc and keywords got swapped around!All of a sudden...Shade Protocol pops onto the scene with dualistic themes, swapping between Dawn and Shade, enemies called ARC robots, cities called Bastions, and a main theme so close it raised hairs.The name of the game is legal deniability here, remember!I didn't even give a shit about and put it up to chance. I used to use AI. But then they tried tying me to it on their podcast when I asked to talk about this!Of course, that's fucking insane, right?>It's not like on their podcast transcripts they talk about driving people crazy, joke about stealing ideas while showing off blue and pink robots, or having two years to make the game, right?>It's not like a lawyer started asking if I had copyrights, trademarks, or making vagues about IP law here on /vg/, and this was publically denied on their discord?>It's not like I vagued them so hard here they started spamming bloody Roblox eyes and larping as military intelligence a couple months back?AFAIK, the entire team posts here. They can suck it.If they actually did... It would suck if it was based on conspiracy theories like ritual sexual abuse and monarch programming, and now their game is about killing little childish robot dudes called Snacklets! Talk about satanic pedo shit. Yeeeesh.

>>567736321>You're retarded.
stop normalizing the r-word
why is it when the question of valve's 30% cut (closer to 40% in reality) is brought up, steamjeets always bring up microsoft's, sonys and nintendos 30% cuts? even ignoring the fact that mobile markets have lower cuts and that the steam cut is regressive, this comparison is still misleading.microsoft, nintendo and sony all own manufacturing plants for their hardware, their hardware is necessary to access the storefront, and they also design bespoke hardware for their platforms. this basically means that your game's sales are subsidizing the platform you're developing for, keeping them afloat.valve's steam decks and steam machines, on the other hand, are all entirely outsourced, both the hardware itself and the manufacturer. valve simply acts as the rights holder for them in this case. more importantly, valve's own hardware is NOT necessary to access the steam store. so comparing consoles and steam in such a way is misguided at best and disingenuous and misleading at worst.
>>567740358I don't care about haphazard lore. Dude. Mine started as a D&D campaign of Megaman X.

weapon idea: The Clit Gun. makes people glow clits all over their body
is it illegal to make a game where you kill government officials and CEOs but they're fictional and it doesn't even take place in USA but a place that resembles USA? people would obviously associate it but still, legality?
>>567742862yeah its illegal
>>567741092It's literally happening dude. v3 is gonna be on Steam's front page, as well as on their YouTube channel and social media channels.

>>567742862Targeting a real life person or real life organization can be perceived as a threat against the real person/organization and is therefore illegal. Fictional is usually okay but if it’s too blatant parody or stand-in for a real person/organization it can still be perceived as a threat and have legal consequences.
>>567743778I think games advertising themselves using black magic shilling is fine. Hell, /vg/ games could benefit from being more upfront about it. Make twitter shill rings. It clearly works.Using AI is fine, even. Etc. My problem strictly remains with honor among thieves, if that makes any sense.

Got an architecture question.I'm working on a turn based RPG in Godot and I've been storing all relevant info about a given character (Max HP, current HP, strength, abilities, related artwork, etc) in a Resource called "Stats". I have two classes that extend that, called "CharacterStats" and "NPCStats" for player characters and NPCs, respectively. So here's the question, will it bite me in the ass to keep using 1 stats object for everything about a given character, and just duplicating that object for multiple instances of that character? I'm torn on if my approach works or if I should make some wrappers that track that character's current state and just store a reference to the base stats object.
>>567744609I have no desire to charge for spots in the show. Hear me now. I will not charge for a /v/3 spot ever. If we start getting more submissions I'll simply cap the amount of trailers and then start doing a winter showcase again or something.I'm not doing this showcase for money lol.
>>567745014Why would you have multiple instances of the same character in the first place? But if that's a concern, then have a store that maps the character ID to its stats.
building LOD. I like how chunky the LOD looks.
>>567744894ye, nothing huge, but plenty of smaller successes. Keeps it interesting
>>567745679There could be multiple instances of an enemy in battle, for instance.
>>567746069Well in that case shouldn't each enemy have its own stats because they may be altered by buffs, debuffs, items and other randomization factors?
>>567745014Its not a good solution but if you can handle it its finethe only thing you'd have to worry about is how you handle access, wouldnt want two separate instances of the reference doing different things
>>567746172What would be a better way to handle it?
>>567745014For the Stats Resource of the same character, you should be passing around a reference to the same instance of that Resource rather than duplicating it. Whenever you load a Resource type, Godot is already managing that reference for you. Any stateful property should be tagged @export and any derived stat should be not exported, but instead have the derivation equation in the getter/setter.
>>567746948>>567746593yea thisid have some sort of global stuff that runs all the time and then a wrapper/interface to the stats, and maybe split it into categories or something(i did none of these in my game btw)
>>567743098>>567743469I will screenshot these posts so I can laugh when you nocrabs shit itself when you see the v3 sale on Steam's front page.

I thought players would have their minds blown by the big plot twist in my game but all they cared about is what items they got depending on how they reacted to the plot twistlast time I waste time on narrative
I thought players would have their minds blown by the small details I put on the ground but all they cared about is moving forward to shoot the enemies. Last time I waste any time on decorating or fidelity.
>>567749198Getting people to care about narrative is hard enough in pure story mediums like books or movies, and only gets harder in mediums like games where story is secondary. You need to be a genius writer if you want to make a story game.
>>567749392it's unironically true though. putting soul, "attention to details" (how brown turdies call that stuff), secrets, small personal things - all of that is unecessary.60% of steam is literally barely sapient third worlders and americans, so it's better, for your own sake, to stop treating games as an artistic work and start treating them as adult toys. it will make devving easier and less emotionally damaging for youtl;dr just make slop

>>567749942I thought you were my agent for a sec
>>567749746I'm SO glad I grew out of my "games are art" phase. Vidya is consumer slop, nothing more.
>>567749746It depends on what your personal goals are. If you want to make art, make art. If you want highest Steam sales for lowest effort, go ahead and make slop. If you want to make money, go get a high paying job, because when factoring in time cost of development even some of the biggest Steam slop successes still make less money than just grinding a high pay job.
"Soul" only serves to improve an already good game. Soul by itself cannot turn a bad game into a good game. Players aren't gushing about the tiny little details in your game because your base game is shit.
As a gamedev, how are you going to protect your streamers from such things?
>>567750749we just kill all gamers
>>567750101>All the good adult toys let you do shit like click to jingle some keys and pet the doggo.That's not soul, since it's a deliberately calculated and intentional addition.

It's so hilarious to me how brain dead many lewd games are.So many of them just don't even feel like games.The plot is barely coherent or cohesive.Motives make zero sense, and general gameplay feels like trying to run underwater.Please lewd-bros, I know you're all goonbrains, but please put effort in to your lewd game.It is still art.

>>567754353Every modern game is a stolen idea. What matter is the execution. Idea/use of AI tools/how much effort you put into it does not matter. What matters is the end result.
>>567754353just proves that ideas are worthless, and it's the execution and being able to properly capitalize on them that matters.i don't doubt notchcunt got incredibly lucky with minecraft, but he still knew what he was doing.
>>567753940I guess I should aim for an arcade-like like Annaylnn or Donut Dodo?Are there any similar hyper-small games that a solo noob could feasibly make in <6 mo?

Broskis why THE FUCK is /ourguy/ Jon Blow reposting russhit propaganda? I thought this guy was smart.
>>567757146jon blow is retarded grifter
this but you can unclothe them and also you have a penis attached and that you can stick inside them, POV you just became a billionaire dev
>>567757146Yeah his point was that he was russian. He must be on the side of russians in the war!!!!!! I'm sick of political brainrot.
>>567757789
>>567757146Jon is more of an old school guy. His point was just that you can do amazing things if you believe in yourself. Yeah, I know that is cringe to a lot of people but zoomers really need to hear this kind of stuff because they are neck deep into doomscrolling and negative self esteem which is why they have to pretend not to care about anything.
>>567758139Nice video of your family anon, how many hours a week do you work?
>>567758271Zoomers are C O O K E D, and a blowpost ain't gonna fix 'em.

anyone heard from frufi? she yhs yet or still yaying?

>>567757146Intelligence in one area doesn’t mean intelligence in all areas. Einstein was a master of relativity theory but was terrible at quantum mechanics and refused to believe in it despite all the experimental evidence.
>>567759592Ego is the issue, Blow has the ego the size of the sun
>>567757146he's politically retarded but he's a good programmer. i think its because leftists made fun of him too much his brain broke over the past decade.didn't he help fund some gamedev program for minority women around 2019? kek. maybe something happened then.but also >>567758271jon would be so based if he was a moderate liberal
>>567758271>>567760121No fuck you, we are tired of funding Israel, we will not pull ourselves by our bootstraps.
idea: its like Jujutsu Kaisen but with downs syndrome people and Domain Expansion is called "Chromo Zone"
>>567759428you're making me feel unc
>>567760336alternatively, its like The Warp from Warhammer 40K but everyone inside it is retarded and its called The Chromo Zone. people in the real world (Earth) fear it because The Chromo Zone is currently trying to merge with our reality. replace Warp Gods with actual all powerful retard gods

Is there a way to search for Steam games with a lot of mostly negative reviews? I want to see the worst of the worst.
>>567760606Ai replaced all this pointless crap btw. Math obsession is 100% for tranny incels
>>567749942This is not as bad of an idea as it previously was now that frontier LLM models are so good, you can easily 10x the output.
>>567764601You'd just find games that pissed the Chinese off by including a map with Taiwan on it or something.
>>567764601use steamdb to find them, also this >>567764812
>>567764768im jealous of mathcels. they just view the world differently. they're able to explain the universe. they can literally see thru the matrix, no wonder they love it

>>567742862>is it illegal to make a game where you kill government officials>USAthis is actually the least illegal thing you can possibly do in the United States since it's protected by both the first Amendment AND government officials being absolutely and definitively public figures and government functions being entirely public domain.doing it about/in a country without speech protections or about a class of people that have defamatory protections or private institutions that have copyright/trademark protections are each more susceptible to legal issues.

idea: if you don't put points in dexterity you have a chance to fall down the stairs per second when going up or down stairs
>>567754353Infiniminer was just voxel engine with first person controls. It had bad style and bad gameplay. Notch fixed it by adding slight fantasy rpg elements, survival mechanics and contracted musician that made the game stand out, also creeper was something unique you could connect to the game from outside, it would have not gone nearly as far if kids just talked to eachother about skeletons and zombies.
you have Andoird support? When can you include Android support? You're game needs to have compatibilities with Android. Majority of global gaming audience is on Android.

>>567772231they'd have to be informed enough to notice so not likely.if you want to troll engagement like that with gamer you need to dramatically lower the intelligence standard when coming up with your triggers.
The switch up on v3 today in /agdg/ was wild to see in real time after they announced the expo page.
So everyone here is chasing trends? No mold breakers?
>>567773597Dem bros...
>>567773760My game is so revolutionary the genre doesn't exist yet
>>567773997Multiple threads open, that wasn't relevant to my mold breaking best selling /agdg/ game ever made.
>>567769104Why would anyone want to play android games wtf

>>567774685That's putting it lightly at this point. Literally a shining star in a bleak world.
Why would any sane not poor person would want to play games on android wtf
>>567774527>yeah, poor people.Yeah, those are historically the easiest people to market to and manipulate.
>>567775062Hence why we have candy crush and chink anime gamba
>>567775062yeah with nickle and diming. that market is flooded with chink shit. you think competition on steam is bad that market is beyond fucked.
How do we cope?
>>567775315>py6
>>567747751prompt?
>>567773760I'm working on a game with unique blend of genres, some trending, others very mold breaking.
>>567775315yours to cope not mine.
>>567773760I'm working on a slop game and I plan to use the profits to fund my dream game.
>>567775756that's illegal. you will be taken to the high courts of the agdg palace to face your execution
>>567775756kanna...
>>567773760I'm a trailblazer.
I just learned there's over 100 Warhammer video games. WTF. How can something this huge exist all around me and I never heard of it?I have only ever heard the word "Warhammer" in vague whisperings every few years on the most fringe online communities. Yet apparently its fuckhuge?
>>567776375>warhammer>Yet apparently its fuckhuge?Yeah... what are you a foid or something? Only a foid would say this shit.
>>567776375The Warhammer fandom is populated by rich nerds and post-burnout divorced dads
>>567775297>you think competition on steam is bad that market is beyond fucked.That's how markets work. Are you a fucking communist?
>>567776375Were you born in 2000s? I had barely heard of anything Warhammer before meeting my few years older gf who's friendgroup is full of millenials obsessed with Warhammer.
Its been a while, thread m8s. Here's Wagie Run first trailer:https://youtu.be/x59WB2LMFpYIf you guys have the time, please watch it, thanks
>>567776965Are you retarded? Markets are supposed to be flooded with chink gacha slop? Shut the fuck up retard.
>>567777019it's whose
Haven't been here in a whileDo people still do demo day streams?
>>567777019>>567776375This is what happened when video games went mainstream. We used to get made fun of for playing video games, D&D, and Warhammer.
>>567777207yes>>567777023btw you m8s can use that agdg image however you like
>>567777110Yes, open markets get flooded with cheap shit. Do you not have a job or engage regular commerce?
>>567777207Buddy we're on steam page now
>>567777137Yeah, ESL.
>>567777207Crafting anything around your game to target the audience in this thread is a mistake.
>>567777351Did you just read Ayn Rand or something? Go post your retarded shit somewhere else. All I said is the steam market is significantly better than the mobile market and you're shitting your pants over free market libertarian dumb fuck shit. Moron.
>>567777759No, I've been alive during the creation of Amazon, Google Play, Steam, and the App Store, and have watched them all get flooded with slop.
I hope I'm not the only one jammin in the name of the Lord.
>closed market is created>content and goods curated>market becomes popular>market is opened up>market turns to slop
>>567777927Wow you're real special, boomer. Doesn't change the fact that the steam market is better than the mobile market.
>>567778174>betterHow so? What are the metrics you are using?
>>567778082>market turns into a democracy where people vote with their wallets for slop to spiral into irrelevance while the good goods prevail
Too much is copyrighted these days.You got Star Wars suing people for having energy swords in their game.You got Warhammer suing people because their armor's shoulder pauldrons are too big and roundAnd so on.Since when do they own the concept of energy swords or round shoulder pauldrons? All this shit was done WAY before they existed.
>>567778334None of those marketplaces are democratic, the algorithms control visibility. Gaben is a cunt who steals 30%, remember?
>>567778504The algorithm follows the people.
>>567778082you forgot the most important step>create a physics based algorithm to sort all gold and diamonds deep below tons of dirt
>>567727274A big benefactor paid Gabe the requested funds. Expect Haunted Chocolatier to be showcased.
>>567778241>On average, 30 to 50 new games are released on Steam every day>Approximately 500 to 1,250 new games are released on the Android Play Store daily
>>567778628No, the algorithm follows earnings for the company running the marketplace.
>>567773760I have a somewhat original idea, but I'm saving that for my second game.No point in attempting to make that game, while I'm still learning. Far smarter to chase trends for my first game, try to maximize for money, and if I'm successful, with that knowledge, attempt to make my dream game.
>>567778737Yeah, and the Android Play Store has 10x the user base. That's how scale works.
>>567778737now compare the userbase metrics
>didn't have any money for marketing>didn't advertise anywhere but the /agdg/>wonders why they can't get any sales on steam or google play
I was thinking of going mobile because of the bandwidth metrics but as it turns out, the vast majority of mobile usage is just brainrot: tiktok clips and social media scrollingso I'm sticking with desktop
Literally all you have to do is pay streamers, and buy ads.
>>567774697Parkour game. Burned out on AI movement logic, starting to see why nobody does parkour enemies, so I'm playing around with visuals and IK.
>>567778754and if someone is willing to buy one thing, they're more likely to buy a second thing if the first thing did not satisfy them and if they bought a second thing they're more likely to buy a third thing if the first 2 things did not satisfy them and... >>567778668
>>567778890>>567778907Yeah and the more popular and widely used something is the worse it gets.If steam had that many users it would be significantly worse than it already is.
>>567779097No matter how bad you think steam is, mobile is 1000x worse
>>567779229>starting to see why nobody does parkour enemiesLevel design and flow, have optimal paths for them to follow, like Titanfall.
>>567779296google play store (and it's parent google and it's sister youtube) actually put effort into having an algorithm that surfaces good things because it's the most viable way to profit from their immense userbase (and it's kinda their whole brand history).
>>567779778Googs I know you are down bad but it's no reason to simp for the google play store even you are better than this
>>567779296It must suck to live in a world where you generalize everything and don't have the skills to stand out amongst the rest of the herd.
>>567779937i dont simp for anything you weird freakmerely facts.
>>567780075You are praising youtubes algo in 2026. That's shameful
>>567779229Mirror's Edge (1, idk about the newer one) has some decent enemies that parkour to get to you. They're slow enough that you can see their pathfinding in action.But if you restart a checkpoint too many times the AI breaks and they just jump to their death lol
>>567780324>That's shamefulHow very hebrew of you to guilt other people, for correct statements of basic facts, on a mongolian game dev image board.
should I dev or should i goon
>>567779778>google actually put effort into having an algorithm that surfaces good things because it's the most viable way to profit from their immense userbaseI believe they put the effort but I don't believe all the effort in the world can fix how much garbage is on the front page.>>567779954Weren't you just generalizing markets earlier? I'm doing fine, though thanks for your retard take, boomer.
>>567780542okay, retard.
>>567779778>search for anything>900 ads block all your result>have to end all search terms with Reddit>Gemini biggest google search upgrade>gets more things wrong than Grok 1.0>another day on youtube>suddenly weird AI clips farms with 500 subs get recommended>Indian cropped porn thumbnails>animal abuse channelsI've never actually found any app on the play store, it's always faster to google search + reddit if you need something

Stop making 'art' and start making content. Games are products and will always be products. Learn how to manipulate the algorithm and scam and pillage the Market.

>>56778378Yeah, no shit. I designed and documented the whole engine with integrating LLM and AI gen functionality in mind.

>>567785464you're taking this world way too seriously.
"Hot Chick Heaven" implies there is a Cold Man Hell
>>567785740Yeah, but this is the first time entire generations have been zog bonked in real time with smart phones, tiktok, and youtube. The scale of it has never been seen before.
>>567785740oh are we still pretending this is some sort of golden age
How close is too close an FOV. I know it's something most users have preferences for but am I screwed if I'm locking the FOV down for a specific look, feel, and tone? Third person camera by the way.

>>567785891>you're taking this world way too seriously.
>>567786120No it's quite the opposite, we're so cynical and critical of the past we refuse to romanticize it

vague posting is high iq
>>5677862963rd person games should really have a FOV slider and/or use a dynamic FOV to better imply speed. If you want to restrict the view, it should really be first person.
>>567786806It's already set up dynamic with a slight interpolation between movement states. Sprint being the highest in the mid 70s, the default movement state has an FOV of 66.

EGS is proof that piracy is irrelevant. You can give games away for free and goycattle will still pay because their feeble goybrains are slaves to the Steam interface.

Gabe also gives away free games all the time and all you'll ever do is add it to your library without downloading it because you don't play video games anyways.
>>567738015If you're such hot shit, then crush this rock with your bare hands
>>567787671He was right back then and he's right now.
Steam is to online video game store fronts, what WoW is to MMOs. You could technically do better, but people want to be where others are, and people cling onto their accounts they've been cultivating for decades.
>>567784426I'm gonna sell that, with a twist! Instead of happy childhood they'll get an abusive one
>>567787736and what free games does Gabe give away all the time?
Have anyone made a roguelike with decisions after every chapter that feels like a chess game?>WTF does that meanImagine having a number of blocks, like 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 chapters, (basically a chapter is a combination of 3 dialogs of the pool of possible dialogs).And then each chapter basically being procedurally made from picking random blocks.But after each chapter, there's a VN menue.These VN represents actions you can do to the game, which can effect the characters data.The next chapter is picked from the input conditions that each block needs to be triggered.

Anime Android Girl Parkours and Parries & Destroys Big Robots in a Brutalist Megastructure Bullet Heaven With Shoegaze and Ambient Breakcore soundtrack inspired by Blame!, Angel's Egg, and The King In Yellow
>>567794671No it doesn't.
>>567794705This scene depicts an anime-style android girl expertly navigating a brutalist megastructure filled with massive robots, showcasing her agility through parkour and her combat skills as she parries and destroys her mechanical foes in a chaotic bullet heaven. The environment's stark, imposing architecture contrasts with her sleek, agile movements, while the soundtrack, inspired by shoegaze and ambient breakcore, adds a layered, intense atmosphere reminiscent of the worlds in Blame!, Angel's Egg, and The King In Yellow, heightening the sense of otherworldly tension and relentless action.

Old /agdg/ advice said to just keep knocking out games and you'll build a following of fans who will buy your games but this doesn't actually seem to be working this decade.

>>567809929this game wouldve made it if it wasnt about fucking chopping wood kek
>>567809646End result looks terrible but it's only going to get better with time.Soon there will be a single ai app that gens you a 2d character from a prompt, converts it to a 3d model, retropologizes and rigs the model and then animates it.
>>567810142needed more AI wood
>>567806671Oof. First, or second, time that someone has actually posted a failed gamedev and it actually scared me.Those games are really high quality. Maybe it's just the fact that what they are appealing to is a dead market, but I would expect for there to be people who want gameboy style games.
>>567760467Wtf Im already ancient tier? I only showed up during demo day 4X. Is that when aggy daggy was at its most memorable? What about like the pre demo day 20 days?
>>567811187That's the primordial eraEquivalent to those old games that only had 2 colors other than black and white
Any solution for these weird artifacts at the edges between disconnected meshes in Godot? Force Disable Compression under the mesh import options helped massively but I still get this shit.
>>567809646Definitely an improvement, but the quality is still nowhere near what an actual (competent) 3d artist can do. From a far they give the illusion that it's better than it actually is, in the closeups of the models running you can see all the problems. It is almost there tho, which is scary ngl.The silhouettes and overall form are pretty good (not perfect), but the product as a whole isn't there yet, specially the textures, it seems.
>>567810920>I would expect for there to be people who want gameboy style games.They don't look good fullscreen on a monitor. Hell they don't even look good on a Switch or Steamdeck.I think Gameboy Advance style games might take off for modern handhelds because the original screen was larger than Gameboy color but you need depth and content that justifies a 20$ pricetag
>>567811393I can't even see whatever that's supposed to be
>>567811187that meme usually puts ancient gamers as some shit that came out semi-recentlyits part of the joke
>>567811650The most popular pixelshit games like SDV and Terraria zooms out the map and lets you see way more if you have a bigger screen. The pixel-upscale ratio is fixed.
>>567811393you're always going to get floating point errors if they're just 2 disconnected edges butting up against each othernormally you allow for some overlapping geometry in order to avoid issues like that, or if you're going for some really low poly shit you just weld everything together as a solid mesh
>>567811393are they still there if you turn off antialiasing?
Almost done migrating everything from 2D to 3D. Somebody told me to start off in 3D and I wish I would have listened. I think it'll be fun to learn a bit about blender I guess.

>>567814394Is it even possible to make fishing mechanics fun? My friend told me one day he has idea for me and said I should make game where you can fish and drink beer, but it's actually horror game and there's bigfoot or skinwalker or something stalking you.
>>567816654i went thru a similar thing. i think for writing, you really have to just make bad stories before you can start making good ones. sort of like making a game i guess.good luck
>>567816797guns. fish with guns
>>567816797what broke my brain were people complaining about stardew valley's fishing mechanic.some people straight up want a "press A to get fish" button. sounds like a good vibe, your idea. if it has good vibes i think it would score an audience of some sort

I see godot's vertex lighting is still broken like it has been for yearswhen a triangle is partially clipped by camera frustrum it just doesn't run the vertex lighting on the clipped vertices so you get no interpolation across the rest of the triangle which is in viewresult is massive light flickering as you move the camera

Why is agdg so dead nowadays? These threads used to be full of life

>>567831735Normies are literally braindead worms though. Theres no point caring about them or the games they make
I got some insider news.It's gonna be harder to release game on steam soon.Due to AI gaining popularity and how easy it is to just "vibe code" a game, and also all the slops going on the store, steam is currently figuring out a new method to put game on the store, but it's gonna be better than greenlight.
>>567831853>Theres no point caring about them or the games they makethere is thoughvalve only promotes 400 games a year. every normieslop game on steam is one less chance for you to get to valves promotion algorithms.
>>567828814Wuxia and Xianxia novels are pretty popular in the east (except Japan I think). It's for that audience.It's not like new gamers joining Steam will know what a roguelike is without playing one or looking it up. Or what the difference between a crpg, arpg or jprg is.
>>567831942So? It's outside of my control so there's no point caring about it. I just have to try to make a better game
>>567828814>they wouldn't be adding pointless tags that do not benefit literally anyoneWhat does that have to do with combating or not combating censorship? You're still not making any sense. Obviously all their planned tag changes would get grouped into a single release. They could both combat censorship by removing tags that pps target but also add new tags that they don't like Capybera and Wuxia.
>>567831876sounds like good news :3Are games just toys or are they works of art
>>567828427im not an artchad unfortunately. if i were the first to make this, it wouldn't be anything at all.

I've added some basic enemy movement and animations in blender.

Next I want to add some enemies to the first level and see how well they handle shooting the player. I've created a dodge animation for the player so I need to implement that too.

>>567838990Like what? And could one of these open source AI code a game for me if I have no idea what I'm doing?
>>567838198always had zoom zoom
>>567839826This was one shot on Qwen3.5-9b a 17gb model. Obviously you're not going to get the kind of quality you would from the frontier models but I picked this model because its totally possible to run on normal consumer hardware. GLM 5.1 is actually genuinely great but... lol that's out of reach for the overwhelming majority of people unfortunately. Hopefully ram prices go down in the next couple years. I pray for the downfall of big AI every day so the consumer can be free to run AI at home free from their tyranny.
Half-Life was just Call of Duty for boomers
>>567833582You should show us his bare ass for comparison
>>567840812>GLM 5.1Its about on par with Sonnet 4.5 which is impressive as fuck for an open source model.
>ZOMG GORDON THE BUILDING IS EXPLODING!! YOU ESCAPE THROUGH THAT VENT WHILE I GO ACTIVATE THE EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS BEACON. HURRY GORDON!!!>GORDON? THIS IS THE NPC. DO YOU READ ME? DANG CRITTERS INJURED MY LEG AND I CAN'T ACTIVATE THE EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS BEACON,. YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO DO IT YOURSELF. I'M BEAMING A MAP TO YOUR MAPS DEVICE
I'm so fucking glad I tried to set up AI locally when it was brand new to make porn, the technical hassle it has required taught me a lot and by now I can understand how to set up and run pretty advanced AI locally that can help me with coding my game and shit. Meanwhile people here are crying about usage limits or are luddites coping that AI is a meme. Your next line is going to be: "post your game"
>>567841850spoiler
i have one more major feature to work on for my game before i can begin polishing up the art and spending the last few months preparing a final build and my motivation has reached an all time lowcurious
>>567842994no
>>567842018I wish I bought a new pc before all the prices went crazy. my 10yo one just wont cut it with local AI
>>567842018I never paid a cent for AI but I never hit usage limits and I use it for writing code all the time. I'm just not retarded so I know how to compartmentalize tasks. These "AI chads" here let AI work on their entire codebase or in agent mode and for that you need a bit beefier hardware. What are you running your local AI on?Also post your game
>>567843435
>>567843375I reeeeally regret not upgrading to Am5 when ddr5 was cheap but at least I have 128gb of ddr4 ram.
Here we go
>>567844128Dude what the fuck? Where did you get that picture of me??
progress is going extremely slow. mostly because of the coder.
>>567844823*farts inside your mouth*, now post game
>>567844823Is the coder you?
Anybody sell their game on platforms other than steam?Is it worth selling it on itch io or epic as well?Is it worth porting it to consoles?
>>567845074no its a friend>>567844905we'll have damage numbers integrated by this week ill post a webm then
>>567845134yeah
>AI will hit a brick wall soo-https://blog.google/innovation-and-ai/models-and-research/gemini-models/gemini-omni/Look, I wasn't a big fan of AI when it first came out, but even I, a long-time doubter, can't deny how virtually all industries are shifting towards AI-assisted workflows. You have to be an absolute luddite to not use AI for your game. At least use it to review your code, if nothing else. Trust me, gemini's code reviewing skills are superior to your hobbydev coding skills.
>>567845329AI Chads just keep winning
>>567845329Its so ogre for artoids
>>567845145What do you do?
>>567833791>At least 1/15 chance to get 100 reviews >the chance further rises to 1/3 or greater if you have some experience, polished your game, since you are not competing with 60 slop games, but with 5 games at most on your level on the day you release
>>567845465i give directions, concepts, etc
The richest companies in the world are literally spamming datacenters EVERYWHERE. All this investment doesn't point to a bubble, it points to an arms race that won't ever end.
>>567845465I do the art, animation and marketing
>>567845505Well 10% of those 420ish are always porn games and many are AAA games. Its really more like 300 indie games reaching 1k reviews a year
>>567845645Nuh uh, AI bubble will pop in two weeks, reddit told me
>>567845329I have no idea how to use it.Everyday there's a new workflow.
>>567845657How many peeps do you have on your team, how did you find each other?
>>567845997There are thousands of tutorials. You have no excuse.
Just saw the deleted cris progress post in the last thread. Why is he making minor attracted nsfw anime games? It's fucking weird.
>>567846056Yeah, just like there's thousands of linux.The exact same reason why I'm not using it.I will just go back to using chatGPT at their site.
>>567846061Cris has always been an actual pedophile. That's why you shouldn't engage with him.
>>567846061He's from a time when snowflakes didn't get their panties in a twist whenever a fictional character got sexualized.His kind is diminishing with how current zoomer Internet culture has decided to revive pedophile hysterics.
>>567819960Pretty cool. Looks like you made asset flipping work for you. schizophrenic in a good way.

>>5678460512man team, knew him since my childhood. we used to have 3rd guy who i met on a gamemaker forum specifically to help with the game, but he went on to do his own projectalso we had another coder who i met in an MMMORPG in my teens but he is too busy with his job so we basically let him go
>OMG IS that a drawing of an anime cartoon girl underage in cunny whatever>OMG that's so edgy>>567846061I still remember when 4chan was about real cp posted as a way to troll newfaggots.
I'm just a nigger tbf
