erm... hello?
modern gamedev is mainly doing mental gymnastics how to make something with no resources, while also gamers having higher and higher expectations. i think in the future you need to have a 300 IQ to make anything happen, because you'll own nothing and try to compete with everything.
>>575899989Hello there.

>idea make a shmup but with different enemy types to make every round feel different>reality all my enemy factions feel the samemight have to reevaluate how i'm doing things.
devving makes me feel dumb :(
would it be cool and mysterious if i made a game, put it on a bunch of usbs, and then left those usbs at random spots at conventions or something? only problem is that i make games in godot so the game might be really easy to decompile and stuff. thoughts?
>>575902154No thoughtsMake game
>>575893640Are (You) a better dev than dingdong and joolian?
>>575899989sorry, too busy making proggy
Done with exploration
>>575900074I am not sure if you mean it in terms of performance, but if you truly do mean it in terms of performance then you are dead wrong, indie devs have not improved graphically since 2020 but also not immproved in perforence, and AAA still look the same as in 2016 but with significantly worse performance.

>>575906695people never stopped wanting more nazi zombies.
>>575906695From the looks of it it has good game juice and the gameplay look like it has more then just the main level. Key to making a good small game is to make it feel really good and to spend extra amount of content on pointless details like the shop or menu. Certainly better then 90% of AGDG.
>>575906695marketing broyou have jon blow brain, too rigidbad games make millions all the time because they have psychological marketing wizards figuring out how to make it appealingfigure it out
i didn't enjoy stardew valley
just think about how far away you could walk in one week, if you specifically know where you want to go.and then think about how far you go if you have no idea where to go.and then think about how far you can travel nowadays in one week with modern technology.the amount of power that is unlocked just by having a clear goal is insane. someone with a clear goal can achieve more in a week than someone who doesn't know where to go achieves in 10 years.
>how it feels to use Unity in 2026

i love godot
These donuts were very stale, probably made yesterday and then sprinkled today. It pretty much ruined my day. I have so little to look forward to and then even that little turns to shit. Ok, it was 3 for 1€ but they're usually tasty and fresh.Reminder to fellow rentoids: tomorrow is August 1st.76 days left until I run out of money. I owe 1900 minutes of work. Today I'll be doing some long overdue adjustments to a couple of 3D models. I'll be able to watch/listen to something at the same time. If anyone knows a gamedev documentary where the devs are in desperate circumstances but in the end their game makes it, send me a link.
bro just get a fucking part time job its not that hard and it increases productivity more than anything else you could ever ask for

you aren't running out of time. actually in 10 years your chances of making it will be much higher.
I almost feel embarrassed even asking this, but how do I make this portrait not look like total dogshit?

>>575915762>actually in 10 years your chances of making it will be much higher.that's what they said 10 years ago..
>>575908389truth
>>575917021... and they were right? The amount of indie developers who make it in 2026 is magnitudes higher than in 2016.
I was watching professional wrestling clips from the 80s. Promotion has always been the moat.
>>575916478shadows and detailsalso, when making curves, try to make the pixel lengths of each step descend evenly like 3 in a row, 2 in a row, 1. do you get that concept?
>>575917207no I mean me. I'm older and dumber with less energy, and my unc tastes are not producing marketable games
>>575917652>I'm older and dumber with less energy,I am in my 30s now and I feel much more intelligent, focused and energized than when I was in my 20s.

>>575917853Slaanesh?
>>575917021>>575917207It's the 10 years of experience that make the difference, not which year it is. the tools help, sure. but I'm sure 100x people make it in their 10th+ year vs in their first year.
If I'd started in 2021, I could've made a Stardew Valley by now.
>>575917560>do you get that concept?Yeah it makes sense. Your picrel is actually really cool if you made this just to demonstrate that lol.
>>575917207>The amount of indie developers who make it in 2026 is magnitudes higher than in 2016I'm not a doomer but I'm also not deluded.2016 - 4648 games released872 out of 4648 (18.7%) reached 500 reviews2025 - 21371 games released1465 out of 21371 (6.8%) reached 500 reviewsThis year will probably see a similar but slightly worse ratioSteam only actually promotes around 500 games per year, so the number of games that reach 1000 reviews remains mostly constant across all years.I do believe that any skilled dev can rise above the tidal wave of asset-flip and AI slop being pumped out by inbred 80iq thirdworlders, but it will take 10 years of practice and skills grinding, and the vast majority of people in this thread are making absolute garbage if they're making anything at all.
>>575918956I made stardew in 1999 but it was just digging plots and planting. also I stole all the buildings from link to the past
I have surpassed Dreams
you should all really be using godot.using proprietary software is really stupid.
>>575919731now make sornic 3d better than sega
Got Clod to optimize the system that draws the ground hexes, went from 19ms a screen to 3. Shuddering to think what it could do to the backend. I have been demoted to project manager.
>>575919525>reached 500 reviewsYou don't need 500 reviews in a year to make it.>This year will probably see a similar but slightly worse ratioThe ratio is skewed. Modern game engines and Steam's permission structure allows for games to be shipped that shouldn't be on Steam to begin with.They don't even register as games eligible for comparison in my mind.
opus 5 makes a lot of mistakes fable never did. but it's so cheap...
>>575919771>>575920771>You don't need 500 reviews in a year to make it.In Bangladesh you can be set for life with your $3 game doing 200 reviews. But in the west any threshold for 'making it' financially has to be at least above the median salary for the amount of time it took you to make the game, or you might as well have worked at McDonalds for all that time.But I think anyone who gets into gamedev for money is fundamentally retarded, you're better off just going on welfare and jacking off all day. Personally as a 'hobbydev' I do this for the love of the game, and any money I make I see as a bonus.>The ratio is skewed.Yes however your claim that an order of magnitude more people 'make it' than 10 years ago is not true. The number of games that get promoted by Steam remains constant, the buying power of our money since 2016 has dropped off massively, and the price of games has either stayed the same or dropped too.
>>575921630you're moving the goalposts buddy
>>575918956research what the next stardew valley should be desu.
>>575921630True, I guess I exaggerated.
>>575921630>>575922607
New cope just dropped.
>>575921630>above the median salary for the amount of time it took you to make the game, or you might as well have worked at McDonalds for all that time.mcdonalds doesn't pay the median wage, it pays well below. Nobody here needs to make it instantly, getting enough money to comfortably make a few more small games is fine.>>575920771He's correct in the way that at least 75% of the games on steam are not competition, they're noise, tutorial projects, aislop stuff.

I fucking pay money for this...
deadlines bully me. I miss going down rabbit holes and losing months on shit nobody cares about. what random shit are you making?
>>575911903nta but you can't work part time here you gotta get paid more than welfare or you're shooting yourself in the foot for trying to do any work at all even better if I'm gonna release a game I will be considered an entrepreneur and lose all my welfare no matter how much the game makes so I gotta succeed or go homeless
>>575919525You can tell the post you're responding to was made by a third worlder because they don't understand per capita
>>575926915Fiddling around with making a music production add on for Godot. Haven't made a ton of progress but I really just want to be able to embed callable cues and loop points in music that can be accessed via code. Is this more efficient or better than using regular sound files made somewhere else and referencing them by timestamp? Probably not. But it is fun to work on. Thinking of calling it GoDAW.
>>575926915I wasted years going down rabbit holes and now the reality of being a useless sack of shit is staring me in the face. I'm trying to force myself to work but I keep falling back into my escapist behavior patterns. I wish I was in a position to not give a fuck. I'm not suited for a life where I gotta schedule and worry about how I spend my day to day, week to week or month to month.

>>575931872https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmXU6SEH3KsDamn, looks like AI gamedev is for people who don't actually have any vision or specific outcome in mind, they just want to generate a game, any game, and they don't care about the specifics of the game.No wonder corporations are leaning so heavily into AI, they're also creatively bankrupt.
>>575929943Cool!Architecture pictures always good for inspiration
>>575933636demo porn/twxtter bait has been a problem in indie game dev since before LLMemes as well.
>>575933636I'm not sure what this has to do with me?
>>575934031Yes but it's never been accompanied by doomer retards telling you that your entire skillset is worthless while they spend their entire monthly salary on tokens while somehow still managing to create nothing of value.
>>575934441You pay for gemini.
>>575934517you just need to ignore pajeets and grindset retards trying to gaslight you into their pyramid scheme.Once you learn just a little bit about LLMemes, you realize how fundamentally retarded the entire paradigm is, that's entirely propped up by fake FAGMANN money.
>>575934517>spend between 100k to 900k worth of tokens>why aren't you successful?turns out nepobabies don't need to try they either fail upwards or stay where they are. They have nothing to risk.>>575934637You pay for netflix and amazonOk now we both look retarded now what?
>>575934887I don't pay for netflix or amazon though, if I did I wouldn't expect netflix or amazon to make games for me.
>>575934887wasn't tesla like insanely poor because he was too autistic to get rich. that's not how it works. you can be smart and poor.

>>575936463yea its underwhelming for me.
Games are going wel, $550/day after taxes. However, just working on them, implementing new functionalities everyday is kinda soul crushing. Anyone else feeling the same? Probably i need a 2 weeks vacation but on mobile you have to constantly release updates to keep people engaged and im starting to feel the burnout

>>575935664why would I expect gemini to make games for me?I really doubt all the reddit posts it's trained on are suited for making games.I mostly just use it for image editing, write jokes for me, plan conversations, emails, texts, explain github repos, talk about the bible and history, that kind of shit.The amount of time I save form this is non-trivial so it pays itself back plus I get a lot of various things just for free.>>575936316tesla was also mentally ill though and he wasn't a nepobaby.He gambled away his tuition money, he came the america penniless, he tore up a royalty contract that would have made him millions, he had a deluded god complex, and he fucked birds.He was just some autistic guy who lucked into being a genius, and still ruined his life somehow despite endless opertunities, basically an extreme case of idiot savant syndrome.

we told you to care about code quality bromaybe you'll listen next time
>>575940415>we told you to care about code quality brobut /ournodev/ Casey Muratori told us that clean code has no real benefits.
>>575940728entirely different things."clean code" is wagie nonsense from a manager who sold himself as a programmer so he could sell consulting and his shitty books
>>575939956Not really. Most of the architecture is very clean, right now i'm working on a totally separate mechanic so technical debt is non existant. I think the part i dread is the context switch into hyperfocus mode
>>575940728yeah Im not reading your commits then
>>575940949whats your game btw?
would be funny if someone sent marnix his game for review and he thrashed it but upon release with minimal changes the game does better than all of his gamescombined

>>575940949he wasn't criticizing just the book but virtually every single oop pattern
>>575942214yeah, i briefly watched it before.But having actually looked through casey's HMH code, he's also not someone i'd take too seriously about programming advice.Which is probably why he does more "teaching' these days than actual projects.
>>575909845Well I love Redot
>>575938338Nobody's gonna play your AI slopped CoD clone.>>575937369That's very good daily. Is it from ads or mtx? I'd suggest you save up for a few months of living expenses and a rainy day fund and then start putting all you can into investments so that money can start making more money. Position yourself so that you don't gotta keep up with that daily work forever.
>>575942394he's best buddies with jblow who almost hates oop just as much as casey

>>575947642Switchcars came out in 2016, smartass.
>>575947716So on an unrelated matter, when they're making those demoralizing bar charts to show how many games are being released on Steam and how much reviews they're getting, where do they put a game like Switchcars?
>>575948064probably the exact day it came out + 365 days
>>575944250Oh sorry they came out as trans and are now Rex engine

>>575950335>they're noise, tutorial projects, aislop stuffSo do you have a game that did better than 75% of Steam games? I'm not even asking you to post it, just tell me if it's on Steam available to buy.

>>575962361Mhmm. Zoomer devs are getting big on roblox which has an algorithm capable of dealing with an endless stream of slop. They'll make it big there, build an audience, then release on shithole steam. Millennial devs are steam SLAVES and steam only promotes 400ish games a year - a truly pathetic and unjustifiable number. Ebay gets 2.2 billion listings a year yet I never have trouble selling obscure and niche products. Millennial devs constantly excuse valve's LAZINESS. There algorithm is not 4d chess its a holdover from a bygone era when 2000 games would release on their platform. Its like how they still in 2026 need to take their servers down once a week during peak western hours because they refuse to lift a pinky and upgrade their ancient hardware.

What was the name of that game where you help a goblin village fend off adventurers? I don't think it released yet but it had a demo.
why did goblins get so popular in the last 2 years?
>>575972574Pokemon + Rape is not a game idea. It's just mixing two different themes.A good game idea should say something about its scope in content and core gameplay loop, e.g. "amass a small army by collecting up to 30 different monsters and fight with or against them in JRPG style combat and Slay the Spire style level progression."

You would never make that though, because then you'd have to actually come up with a proper RPG battle system, character sheets, movesets, items, maps, dialogue, etc.

>>575966602>>575966706I was following updates of a game a few months before it was released. On an AMA for the game they said they spent $15,000 on a trailer.The studio had 130 developers and whatever else for the game. I guess it's still indie studio and probably had the money.I guess you could download and learn Adobe Premiere to make a trailer on your own.
>>575967448This is why you go solo. There is no need to crunch and stress yourself out for a corporation.
Anons, in precision platfrmers Should opposite input stop movement or start moving the opposite direction WHEN still pressing the other movement input key?
>>575969538No, because leftoids are natural born losers so they refuse to use AI as it might accidently turn them into winners. As more games become almost entirely AI, they will label them as "right wing" games thus making themselves into even bigger losers than they already are. The divide will be massive and unprecedented.

Been reverse engineering parts of Doom 3 lately. It's actually been pretty fun.One question though: how the hell are the GUI panels implemented? I'm completely lost on that part.I'm rebuilding everything in UE5 using Blueprints. I'm not a programmer, so I'm trying to recreate Doom 3's interactive GUIs without writing a bunch of C++. I know Doom 3's GUIs are vector-based, and I know UE5 has ways to do vector UI, but I'm not sure if I should be using that or implementing the whole system separately.Getting the GUI system working is pretty critical for the project, so if anyone knows how id did it, or how you'd approach it in Blueprints, I'd appreciate the help.Any assistance on the topic would be welcome, I am stumped.
>>575979282You can't talk like that to Cris unless you want to labeled a bigot.
>>575980161>labeledyou're literally brown and retarded lol >>575979454just stop posting

>>575980051You want to make this and have the mouse cursor on it; That's well outside of my field of experience.
>>575980606>>575980051Yeah, I do. Right now I've just got a func_dummy placeholder that's basically an image with a button hooked up to a boolean. There's no actual GUI functionality behind it yet, it's just there to fake the interaction for now.It's the "how" that's got me stumped. Specifically, how to build Doom 3-style GUIs in UE5 using Blueprints.A Romanian friend told me he'd make the Blueprints for $1,200. I'm still not sure if he was joking or completely serious.
>>575980345immediately lol'd because I'm doing the exact same thing as we speak. sticking in cinematic risers and wooshes

>>575981650i thought so too but i was wrong my iq is only 125 and i can't even write a physics engine
has a single video game dev youtuber made a good game?
>>575981503I want to render dynamic game states directly onto interactive and non-interactive in-world GUI panels just like in Doom 3, capable of handling real-time data binding, variables, booleans, and standard video playback.
>>575981813That's a shame. If you had a few more IQ points you'd realize you can ask AI to make a physics engine exactly to your needs.
>>575981813Why not help a fellow 4channer make a doom 3 GUI system in UE5 blueprints.

Answer me these, /agdg/I have general notions of programming, but no formal training whatsoever. I have edited mods in Quake 1 (QuakeC) and 3 (C) and written bot scripts for Runescape (Java) and browser scripts (JS). So I can pick up and go from a starting point, however I wouldn't be able to write a simple Hello World from scratch. Where do I get started learning to properly code? I don't even know what language I should go with."Depends on what you want to make". Well that's the second issue: there's no game in me wanting to come out. If you present me a game, I can judge its strengths and weaknesses and what should be changed and improved (it's how I acted on the mods and scripts I made, after all), but I have no vision as to what to create from scratch. I guess the closest I can conceptualize to it is "isometric Dwarf Fortress with sane interface" but that's a tall order. I think I could get my start contributing to DF if it were an open source project but alas. What do I do then? Just get started on a shmup or side-scrolling just to get it over with?

>>575990180First of all, ignore the AI answer. 99% of posts that pertain to AI in this thread come from a singular troll with way too much time in his hands spamming this thread with a bizarre obsession with AI.The boring answer is that you pick an engine and make 10-15 tiny games to get accustomed to coding and using a game engine in general. It may take you up to 6 months to get there, it sucks to not immediately work on your dream game, but you'll actually save a lot of time doing this.I'd recommend you start with Godot and make prototypes of popular arcade games just for the sake of learning. The worst mistake you can do is to start with your dream game. If you're having trouble, just ask gemini for advice on how to do something. You should learn to rely on the official documentation with time, though.

>>575933636>>575934031>>575934517>>575967583I use a lot of Claude for work and the "it was made with a single prompt" is not really a benchmark. The first good prompt always yields the best result, the longer project is going, the worse and more lazy AI gets. Also you still need to understand what it gives you because if something goes wrong and AI did not understand you correctly or just hallucinated then you will spend a lot of time and a lot of token fixing it (unless you understand how to fix it yourself). Also, the more you take the AI pill and ACTUALLY try to make it work, the more skeptical you become.There's a reason why to this day there isn't a single successful app, game, movie, or anything, really, made by AI.

Blog post, ignore, filter "days left" and never see this again.Happy worst of the month. I made what is technically pizza. For breakfast and lunch and dinner, 100% pizza day. It's... edible, I've had worse food but probably not worse pizza. Yesterday I didn't do my 5 hours so now I owe 2000 minutes of work, never to be repaid but kept track of to remind me how lazy I am. This past month I tried to cut my expenses. I closed my backup bank account because it as 5€ a month maintenance fee, but now I only have 1 card to make payments with. I canceled Youtube Premium because it was 9€ a month so now I can't listen to Youtube on my phone while I'm out and about. I had to stop supporting someone on Patreon because it was another 5€ a month. I couldn't give up on sweets and save 50€ a month though, because I'm a gluttonous piece of shit I guess. Anyway I did my finances and instead of 76 days left, I now have 90 days left before I run out of money. It's not much but it's more time to finish my game and more importantly more time until I have to look for a job.Today I'll be working on adjusting some 3D models because some parts need to detach and do things and it's complicated.
>>576038369you dont need youtube premium to use newpipe
>>576038443youtube premium has a ton of benefits either way, everyone should get it
>>576038443Or you could just download .mp3 from KaZaA like a normal person
>>576038540
>>576036884nvm it's 'custom'
>>576038369Your slopza made me hungry. What game are you working on?
>>576038540I like the benefit of no ads and of creators getting more money for your watch time but I don't like the artificial barrier of no background play that they added and feel like I would be supporting them for paying for YouTube premium
>>576038369> I had to stop supporting someone on Patreon because it was another 5€ a monthyou have no money and you were still giving someone Patreon bucks?
>>576038443>>576038592I don't know what newpipe is and I don't listen to music on Youtube, But I guess I can download audio of any video and copy it to my phone. Youtube Premium was convenient but it's like 3% of my funds after rent and taxes.
>>576038738I don't post my game but I'd give you what's left of that pizza.>>576038979Yeah someone who's doing a thankless job supporting something that's near and dear to my heart and who really needs it. I'll make it up if my game makes it.
>>576039034where else would you be listening to music anon...

Now I feel I can vibe code any 2D game idea I wanna make.chuds now utterly BTFO finally.
>>576041731You need an AI project manager to keep you on target.
>>576041731there's a 10 min youtube tutorial that teaches how to make this
about to hit 100 wishlists. so this is what success feels like...
>>576040921you just dig a hole straight down and there's nothing down there, but you must keep digging because something is after you at the top of the hole. sometimes it vomits junk at you you can use to enhance your digging. also you're a goblin and the artstyle is mongol-core
>>576040559I think he was german or something like that
>>576042798You gotta multiply that by about 200-500 times to find success
>>576043905I was kidding... but yeah, I don't have a demo or a good trailer yet. social media marketing doesn't convert unless your game is in a top 3 genre or whatever
Yay, I made 1 million dollars in my first yea->5% refunds>15% regional pricing>19% VAT>30% Steam cut>40% Income taxoh, i actually just made 270,000 dollars...
>>576044618now put that 270k into ETFs, get a job and then retire in 5 years
I can't stop staying up until 7am vibe coding my stunning visions, I need a luddite to teach me the ways of yore, of the hearty rest after a full day of bailing hay, the artisanal grace of cheese making, the going down with the sun and rising with the cuckookery hoo of the rooster, please dite trash I need your analogue wisdom
>>576045097making games makes you. if AI does it for you, you become nothing.
>>576044618that's fine, as a turd worlder, i could live for 14 years off $270k
>>576037332Protecting lolis is fine but if I can't level them up into a killing machine I'm not interested.
>>576044618With that much money I could move to Japan and start a gamedev company there...
>>576044618ngmi mindset
have you noticed AI for some reason mostly attracts mentally ill schizos
>>576044618obviously you don't have a game on Steam.regional pricing is something you set if you want to, it doesn't get deducted from your gross.you also forgot witholding taxes
god i love japan but like the osamu dazai side of it not the kawaii shit and weebs fuck it up.
>>576045568it attracts desperate people who think they finally have their panacea genie
>>575964134the camera position is atrocious, assuming you'll ever have moving enemies
>>576045568No. They are attracted sure, but it's not mostly.
>>576045568AI is useful, but it attracts a special kind of bottom-of-the-barrel type personality that only cares about making profit.
>>576045916>type personality that only cares about making profitthe best type of personality and the reason you weren't carving that post in a wall of a cave somewhere

What if people who play a lot of games are better idea guys, not because they know what works, but because they know what is missing in the market? When you don't play a lot you might reinvent a lot of games that exist already, without you being aware of it.
i dont care about money i just want attention
>>576037332nobody knows what masculinity is anymore
>>576046654can't think of a single revolutionary inventor who only got into something for the money
>>576047160ok I'll give you my attention for money
>>575900514what game?
>>576047142for generic slop that sells well because it's slop, yes.
>>576047389>taking advantage of the mentally ill
>>576047016>forward thinking peoplestill motivated by profit
>>576045412how expensive is your turd world I thought the whole point of living amongst the turds was it being cheapI could reach closer to 20 years with that amount of money on my current spending in a first world country
>>576047142>who play a lot of gamesdepends on the games
>>576047586often, money was the hindrance, not the motivator, and is actually the bane of a lot of futurists because they aren't naturally inclined towards it (i wonder why!)Tesla was a prime example.
>>575905884what the context here?
>>576047743Tesla had a grudge for 50 years over Thomas Edison screwing him out of $50kalso he was a mentally ill pigeon diddlernow Edison was a true profit-motivated chad
>>576045568because its the machines that think for you
>>576047969Edison sabotaged him, it wasn't about the money.Conversely though, you can take Bell Labs.Funded without issue by ATT monopoly money, you give a bunch of nerds the freedom to research and tinker without having to worry about money. And they produce hit after hit to push the modern world forward.The future happens when money is the least relevant to the people doing the work.

>>576050824yesterday i said my iq was 125 but all i did was ask ai to read my gitub repos and say what it thinks it is and it said 125-130 so i could be 130 still. that would mean i'm moderately gifted which would mean that i am kind of a actual genius
be careful with chinks, once you step over that line and officially support them, you now have billions of little princes who will feel entitled to everything, while also feeling slighted by more.There's a lot deranged ones that think they *made* Slay The Spire popular, so in turn StS is beholden to them.

Mark your calendars! The second batch of our world famous game jam is on the way!>Link:https://itch.io/jam/v3expos-world-famous-game-jam-2>When: October 4th-10thTheme and modifiers will be announced October 3rd!For those uninitiated, our jam puts you into a frenzy making a game with our given prompt/theme in the span of one week. The twist? The week before there's a community vote on required game mechanics to be implemented. It was a lot of fun and you can check it out here: https://itch.io/jam/v3jamAnyways, leave some suggestions for game mechanics we can vote on and we'll see you then!
>>576055546how much money have you made from all of the v3 shows
I don't want to make an autobattler but I want my game to have pvp and asynchronous autobattle is by far the easiest way of doing that. Fuck you.
>>576055852they make money?
>>576055852We make money? Sheeeeet can I get some of that? So far all I've done is burned money making this show kek.
>>576050824brainlet 'dite seethe kekIQ is obviously a dogshit metric but anyone who is actually smart is still going to score 120+
>>576056103if you can clone Hi Rez's auto-battler and improve it, you'll get atleast 1 salehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZGo0TZ-_jQ
>>576055546>Enter the jam>"Claude, here are the parameters, make the best game, surprise me, make no mistakes">"OK, here is Betty Boop Bonanza idle"
>>576056292what do you mean they make money? of course they do with the hidden ads. pm him directly to buy adspace for the upcoming shows
>>576056442I was thinking more like the bazaar, autochess has been done to death and isn't actually asynchronous
>>576056402how much money are you in the hole for all of the shows so far and be honest
>>576056832I'm not saying that in this fucking thread get real. Any number I say is going to be constantly brought up whenever I post. I know how this works dude.
>>576056993so what a couple thousand or?
>>576053417That is the one. A good lesson on the subhuman being of the Chinese. Should be a mandatory read for anyone considering learning the language.
>>576057065Somewhere in that range. Probably above the "couple" and into the "few" range. Next year will be more because I'm shilling out the money to have an OST made for the show.
>>576057536that's not too bad. interesting, thanks for letting me know that insider info. i'd say try to keep things tight, sounds like you're slowly increasing which makes sense but only if the views and what not increase with it. your money either way but i love the shows though either way so thank you for investing into the show, have you thought of putting up a gofundme or whatever to see if people from here would be willing to chip in some towards the costs
>>576053417>一分钱,一分货Save this Chinese saying in case you have to deal with Chinese gamers complaining. After all they bought some cheap indie shit why the fuck are they expecting you as the dev to care?
she's going to stop being so smug once she realizes where im taking her >:)
>>576057847>have you thought of putting up a gofundme or whatever to see if people from here would be willing to chip in some towards the costsThis has been pitched to me so many times by people both on the production team and outside and I've shot it down every time for a few reasons. 1) I would want some sort of insane transparency as to what's going on with the funds and unfortunately just posting some screenshots with "trust me bro" pacifies no one. 2) unless there's going to be a serious dent in what I spend from donations then there's no reason to yet. 3) when you donate to stuff like patreon there's usually some sort of "give back" to the patreon that we just don't have. What? Do you want to see some behind the scenes stuff? It's not that interesting. Here's pic related.Overall, this all stems from a lack of off season stuff to keep something like that worthwhile for people who donate. Stuff like the jams are fun but I really don't know what to do when it's not show season and I don't feel comfortable asking for donations or money unless there's something to give back. Same reason that I don't look for sponsorship. Same reason I haven't courted publishers to partner with the show.
>>576059302what am i looking here?
Does the Patreon meta still work? I mean like, having your game on Steam, but also a Patreon for further financial support?

>>575919731that playstation 5 game that no longer exists?
when you have no skills or creativity so you have to devolve every conversation into a low quality insult match aishart moment lul
>>576072531wrong again but keep coping
when you have a 130iq you don't really pay attention to it.
>generic anime girl with animal ears>creativity
i thought you said you werent a genius but i guess 130 iq is midwit tier when we raise the bar for what we consider human slightly
I will handle music/sounds, the project vision, and art direction. AI will handle everything else. Sound good?
>>576073183what about a cat with human ears?
it should be okay to be midit should not be considered an insult
>>576073383a cat is fine too.
>>576073189Cris has higher than 130IQ. 130IQ is definitely still midwit-tier, and is around the bare minimum required to make video games.
>Cris has higher than 130IQ.
>>576073562iq is not a real thing tho
>>576073404relax jessica
>>576073752to you it isn't because you don't want to face the fact that yours is 24
my bench press beats your iq
I'm adding jessica to my Smash clone to help it stand out.
>>576073739It's true, and it just goes to show how even 130 isn't sufficient for serious solo commercial game development.
/agdg/ smash when?
>>576073383that goes in the horrors that should not exist category
I can fold an origami unicorn in my mind
>>576073923being proud about a <200 lift is mind bending stuff retard. i have lifts on youtube that still haven't been beaten by even world level strongmen and powerlifters and shit which i don't identify with. don't ever mention your lifting shit again
>>576074025cris's mind is like a perfectly tuned grand piano but someone broke off half the keys
Working on lifts in the meantime as Bing "Diegetic UI UE5" was helpful but, I don't know if it's wise to use inbuilt system or make my own.Started working out logic for infinite loop warning on GUI, Right now it's just a light but eventally when GUI work they will be updates on GUIs
>>576074486it's above 200. I have to announce my workouts in advance so they can bring plates from other gyms

>>576078851take up cave diving
>>576078851small steps anon.do small things to be less of a degenerate, and start learning to build less degenerate habits.Once you get over the initial hurdles, the progress becomes exponential and so will the change.(don't bother responding with cope or whining because i won't respond)
