If anyone has just showed up after not being here for like a week or so and you're wondering what the fuck is happening, this general on /vg/ is now dead. Every new thread is being made by a psychotic troll (most likely but not necessarily the failed game developer "faggoon") who obsessively spams AI related memes in a vane attempt to demotivate yesdevs.
All non-schizo yesdevs have move to our new general on /bant/. Over there we have IDs so retards can be filtered. That's where actual progress and game dev related discussion is taking place now.

I want to build a Python and Raylib app that acts as a keyboard remapper to output MIDI notes for my music production software. The app should allow me to select a scale and a key, and then remap the output to that scale. In other words, I want the 'white keys' (the main mapping) of a C major scale to trigger the notes of the specific scale selected in the GUI.

SNK games are masterpieces but commercial flops.

They literally went bankrupt twice, and the last time was because their game that used rotoscopy of 3D models, made by hand, flopped.

What Godot game is this?
>>
>>571979459
I was thinking of making a Godot Add-On which is basically a simple DAW where you can import soundfonts and other MIDI files to make tracks with. The benefit of using this over a real DAW would be that you could embed music/sound triggers that can be accessed via code. That way you could more easily make adaptive music or sound effects that sync to music/play in a coherent key to the music.

it's a literal mental illness. not "haha what a schizo!", it's legit a "this person should be in an institution" kind of situation. there's no arguing with him because to argue with someone you have agree to some axioms or truths, and for joshua the only truth is his "righteous crusade", there is no truth other than his delusions. it's like a literal schizo that'll argue with you that the goverment planted a chip in his brain to steal his ideas or some shit. you know it's bullshit, i know it''s bullshit, the nurses know it's bullshit, but to the schizo it's undeniable reality and there is nothing that will convince him otherwise.

It is agony for him to see the /bant/ thread full of progress posts and to be spotted for what he is there every time.
I don't believe it's Joshua because he's under a French flag.
The spam has nothing to do with AI because his position on it is nonsensical: >AI will replace everyone in a few years, therefore I win
He seems to believe that being an early customer for AI is equal to having a stake in the matter. The first customer at McDonalds isn't making a fortune on burgers, he's just older and worse for wear from eating hamburgers.
His entire luddite/chad dichotomy is also retarded and doesn't align with the real progress being posted, there is no idealogical battle taking place most of us use AI where it's useful and don't use it where it isn't.
Hope he stays this way forever or takes a melty irl, til then I post in /bant/ and the cord.

world procedural generation progress. when im done with this i think it will be really great. so far im loving it but remember i ONLY play games with dogshit graphics, i LIKE dogshit graphics. its part of my autism "overstimulation" thing, i cant even play AAA 3D graphics it rapes my visual cortex

Huh. I was playing my game to figure out what I need to do. Just for the foundation I've got some done but need another big part made which for some reason didn't really hit me till then.

Hey /agdg/. This is my first time here in over a decade- in fact, I'm a little nervous about it. It's been awhile.

The last time I was here, I was still basically a kid and I was showing off my first game. I know all the guys from then are probably gone, but what I learned here was invaluable. I really do look on those times here fondly since they helped me refine it into something I'm still proud of to this day.

Anyway, I've come here to see if anyone in here would be interested in joining my project as a pure level designer? The game engine is completely custom from the ground up so building a level is essentially a combination of Forge from Halo and Minecraft. In-game event and enemy programming is done via Lua so it's also insanely easy. In-game dialogue is done with my open source branching game dialogue tool as well that's meant to basically be free Arcweave without the fluff. And creating/adding assets we make is literally just putting files in a folder. It's going to double as modding tools we're going to include with the game so it's designed to be intuitive for the most part.

Basically I'm needing some people to help design levels and fill the game with its content while I focus on actually programming. We have a budget of pocket lint, vodka, and beliving in urself. That said, I've been doing this since I was ten and I'm coming up on thirty now, so if you need advice or help on your projects I'm happy to mentor you.

Here's a little clip. We're working on the first demo, it's just been slow going since I have IRL stuff going on too and this is a hobby for me.

Its not that no one cares its just that most people can't even see the stuff you post because of modern social media algorithms.
'Social' media but you can't just post something to show it to people you've got to act like a clown to get picked up by AI powered algorithms.
Today you can't just be a game developer you've go to also be an eceleb who builds parasocial relationships with your customers. The quality of the game is secondary to your ability to entertain tiktok users. This change in dynamic has been fucking disastrous for sperg devs.

93 days left. Yesterday I wasted 4 hours on an art asset that I finally decided is too ambitious, so I decided to start over with something simpler. I can't compete on graphics anyway so it's not worth 3-4 days of work. I'll try to finish it today.

I'm so sorry you had to see the thread in this state

but I'll never let the nodevs take over. The gamedev I started through /agdg/ fixed so many of my problems -- my laziness, my uncertainty of what I wanted to do, financially, etc etc. I don't owe /agdg/ at all because it was all through my own effort but /agdg/ was a part of it and so I'd like to give something back. Obviously I'm posting elsewhere but I can't help but look at this thread like one looks at what has become of South Africa or Zimbabwe.

I bought a 8 € can instead of 12 € so I was worried it was going to be even worse than coffee usually is but it's alright.
I don't think it's worth any investment. In 3 months either I'll have some kind of job and won't have to worry about that level of expenses or I'll have bigger problems than how disgusting my coffee is.

it's easier for potential players to understand what the game is about
more complexity = steeper learning curve = longer delay before satisfied, casual gamers do not want this
"a game about digging a hole" = spend $5 dig hole win satisfied
game with 50 genres 20 hour learning curve 10/10 difficulty = crawl through glass before you can have fun
why would people do that if they can just reject the game and go scroll instead

just went through a bunch of <30 review new-ish games and noticed that, if a game only has like 6 negative reviews, at least 2 will be something along the lines of:

it doesn't matter, apparently, if the game is baby-proof; it'll still have some review(s) like that.
it almost seems like it's just other devs trying to bury competition with some vaguely on-topic reasoning.

Oh yeah I'm not making it. Stuck in a hardspot that is halting development entirely. Can't choose what style to make the game in, pixel art, hand drawn, or 3D top down view. I get the feeling the style choice has some impact on how I handle coding certain things and it's just causing me to freeze up and do nothing despite knowing what else there is to do.

You can make it for the next demo days anon.

If you need some brainstorming, may be ask your self; what kind of game do I want, vibe wise?

Spooky stuff, action stuff, etc.

And then ask yourself, what are my current skillsets and tools

for example, pixel art has a lower ceiling of entry, but hard to master, however, using references or tracing other tile/sprite sets may help (as long as you have rights on those, like free stuff)

Surely more than 70% of the games released this year already make extensive use of AI in their programming.

What I don't understand is the need to pressure everyone to use AI, especially in assets where it's noticeable and can give the impression that the content is of low quality.

Customers want to feel that they're spending money on something that cost a lot to produce.

rapid iteration in Unity and Unreal is not possible. it is so slow to make one change then test it. that's why i stopped using it and am making my game in pure JeetScript (JavaScript, well TypeScript specifically). i get instant iteration. change code, alt+tab to browser and it is already there for me to see. yes its a browser game. works perfectly for a 2d topdown game. but it can be packaged to an exe and put on steam too.

its just so much easier and faster. i love it. i hate game engines now. i have a procedurally generated multiplayer game relatively easily.
>>
I posted the idea for kaiject(game about digging a hole but you burrow into a kaiju) here and now a dev has made it. Coincidence!??
>>
>>572157274
I'm doing that too. For a while it was amazing. As I get deeper into the details I wish I had an engine with nice layout tools. I have built some but it adds to the development time making them work well too.
>>
>>572157274
in fact it has gotten to the point that although many of you will disagree with me i recommend if you are going to make any 2d game at all just make it in TypeScript. the iteration is insanely fast, the npm library (node package library) is the BIGGEST ON EARTH and AI knows more about JS/TS than any other language and you never have to open and engine. if your maps are human made (as opposed to procedurally generated like mine) just download LDTK (Level Designer Toolkit) and make your maps in there and export them and then import them into your game. For code just use VSCode, but actually you don't have to anymore, AI is so good just get it to do everything.

I'm finished with intro cutscenes finally, I thought they'd take a day to do but ended up taking 2-3 days for each part (2 parts), adding in a bit of platforming then focusing on combat until demo day, unless I get distracted and add other stuff.
I also have other working finished stuff I need to add to the demo area since I'm not planning on letting the players into the first town this demo. (I need to redo it)
so instead I'll put things like a bed, TV, piano, etc. stuff that's set up and interactable throughout the first area for the demo.

If you see the bad reviews you can understand how a game can fail this hard. Also posting about 50k wishlists means nothing now because there's indian scammers selling wishlists from lvl 0 accounts. Which MEAN NOTHING because they aren't buying your game, I've been spammed like 20 times already by them and I bet every hopeful indie dev is getting hopescammed of 500 bucks and crashing like this.

its subjective. for one example it depends if you like using visual editors with sliders and checkboxes and stuff like that to configure your game or view your models, as opposed to tweaking them in a data file (json etc) somewhere, which any engine just saves your tweaks to anyway somewhere.
