modding the shit out of this game and turning it into my own kind of roblox that also beats gmod and minecraft and blockland and and and and and please fucking none of these fucking games will run on this exotic operating system i have here so my solution is to make my own, i'm going to have to remake an ancient version of minecraft thrice in order to play minecraft.pure C > the most optimized java
Are you guys cozy gamedevving?
So this is why trooner groomers don't like vibe chads in aggy daggy, fascinating!
>>577224175looks like an old bullfrog game. what is this?
>>577224690do people get cozy in summer
>>577224826based dad. >kid thinks he made a friend>5 years into playing notblox he finds out it was an AI
>>577224826This was made up by an indian for ad revenue
>>577224826Still throwing a tantrum because you can't make a game huh
saars my game needs to make 100k so i can do the needful and buy cybertruck
They might have increased his dose which helped him to stop spamming but that doesn't address his primary issue which is existential angst from being unable to make a game in the videogame making club even when using all the super cheat codes and shortcuts that he was sold on. Vibe code?More like vibe CHODE
>>577224690Making slow and steady progress while shitposting on the side watching movies and tv and tube slop. Some hot coffee. Doesn't get any cozier.Really need to take it up a notch though and hit that GRIND mode where no fun is allowed and you just work like a machine.
the time and date on my machine is set to jan and it seems like uploading a video to steam works without the correct date throws an error i wonder why
>>577226023why join game making club if not making games?
>>577225303That's kind of irrelevant considering sloppers all shill their slop lifestyle for free, but yeah it's more likely it's fake considering everything about vibecoders has proven to be fake. The intended result whether a bot, shill or slopper preaching their new religion is the same, which is to cause plebs to think >wow that guy can one shot a roblox clone just for some little personal project? I bet I can make a real game and make $10,000,000 with it.
>>577226626This is an elaborate troll to get people to post their AI workflows
>>577226474The second vibe sloppers install LLM coding tools they are already convinced they are on their way to making games and millions of dollars. By the time reality sets in they already spent months in here baiting arguments about AI and insisting they are making something. The reality is too much for them to face. So they just stay and never make games. This isn't new of course, agdg has filtered and trapped countless nodev schizos over the years. The speed at which AI produced these schizos though is somewhat shocking. It speed runs them into being a crashout faildev.
>>577225829Don't worry there's still plenty of kids for you to scoop up, luddie!
>>577226885Cope and project, peasant. We know you can't afford tokens. That birthday gift card is only months away though :3
I just need AI to be able to make and animate 3d models and then we're good to go. Until then it's just a waiting room
>>577227015meshy, and just mocap the animation, dance around in your room in front of a $20 kinect, easy
>>577227146Noooo don't give me a real solution. I'm just looking for excuses to procrastinate.
>>5772273533D still has several pain points even with AI so you can wait for it to be more streamlined
>>577227012^ has no game^ is a bot
>>577224826>seething that hard because muh robloxlol what a clownhttps://www.youtube.com/@RealSchlep/videos
to the ai-tards: hope you know you are feeding your time (money) to the antichrist (ai)
>>577229003you do it every time you stare at the screen
>>577224690Not until winter, because only then do temperatures remain below 20c consistently in this shithole. I hate summer.
Calm down. We can all feed the anti-christ and make a little money, anons.
I'm glad slotbound dev isn't here.
>>577226885so even when a robot can make your whole game people will never do it...?
>>577223689i need mechanic ideas real bad, for a roguelite
>>577233769You go to the right and sometimes jump.
>>577232284lol i have looked into all this shit about writing stories and its like, damn, i really have to forgo my dignity to appeal to the plebbit agp crowd with (((character driven storytelling)))
>>577233883something more unique.It's like everything is telling me to make an shmup but i have never even played one for real and i dont like the idea (bars)
>>577233438I would say it's honestly just as difficult with the AI, just faster, quicker answers to solutions. Games are so complex, they need to be designed with care outside of LLM, and the AI needs to be guided by someone who at least has a rudimentary understanding of the codebase.
>>577233769an item that transforms your legs randomly. kangaroo legs(jump higher). horse(run faster). squid(water doesn't slow you, but you lose the ability to wear pants/leg armor).
>>577233926>character driven storytellingYou can just imply a lot of it without having to write it. That way you can say the audience is imagining things if the narrative becomes problematic.
>>577234138don't google how many wishlists slotbound(fully vibecoded no experience dev) has.
>>577234076How about a paddle on the left, a paddle on the right, and a ball that bounces in between?
>>577234275>fully vibecodedIt's a simple game. Even if it's "vibe coded" it's more built on the libraries and infrastructure than the AI. People slopping out poorly written games has existed since floppies.
>>577234323>visualizing a slot machine paddle pair. >upgrading your paddles individually with roguelike upgrades>and your ball toodamn. I'm gonna be rich. this has already been done though I am sure
Back when I was a kid, you were lucky to see an add for a game in the back of a magazine. You send $15 dollars in the mail, and some 13 year old kid would mail you back a copy of something he wrote in BASIC.
>>577234484oh ok. no worries then!
>>577234680when I was a kid, the back of the magazine had the code to the game and you'd spend hours copying it onto the speccy
>>577233438>a robot can make your whole gameIt can't.>people will never do itGamedevs can make a game with AI. It's trivial, but there's a reason we don't. And sloppers will never make a game, that's correct. I suppose we can give them another 2 years here, we just need to keep waiting for them to catch up so they can "replace" us like they said they would for the past 3 years.
>>577234957Whatever you say great grandpa. Make any cool new pixels?
>>577233926>the plebbit agp crowdI still have no idea what AGP stands for. And I'm actually thankful for that. Whatever hyper political echo chamber that comes from, I'm apparently not part of it.
>>577234680My school library had PS1s you could borrow. I knew how to pirate and emulate by 1st grade, and by the 3rd grade, my friends and I were burning and exchanging copies of big games collections on CD-R.
>>577235349You know how there's this trend of making FPS games where you can look down to see the FMC's tits?
I made my first million as a gamedev when I was in kindergarten.
>>577235130>>577234138what do you mean it cant or its difficult? do you not have years of tendy experience? the hard part is telling it shit like this jump doesnt feel right add more force instead of writing code
>>577235689So it's more tranny obsession huh. Kind of figured.
>>577235349oh my godi realize now that i must make a troon coded game so i can have insane people post my game 24/7its genius i call this strat.. the toby fox method
>>577235939>the hard part about making a game is telling the chatbot to make it betterThat's not gamedev. Making a game is the hard part about gamedev. See at a certain point, the delusions become too much for anyone to break through. Sloppers will be here years from now continuing to babble things like this. You're like schizo junkies in Seattle stumbling around, we would prefer to avoid you but you're just here now and you're not going anywhere.
>>577236151but i have a game...
>>577236254If you say so. If you slopped your game - I am still talking about you. If not, pardon me.
>>577236639its just code slop i dont like ai assets lord gaben said this is ok and still counts as real art
alright who nuked the /bant/ thread?
>>577234957I had a Micrsoft "Running Qbasic" book that I learned from. If I went for a few awhile without programming, I'd pick it up and read through all my bookmarks.
you niggas tricked me into buying that stupid ass blue book c# with that stupid ass bioshock water puzzle as the exampleyou know the one.
There are just slop people.
>>577236963nice. I didn't even know I was learning programming. just "free games!?" in my dads magazines
>>577237062Bet you listened to the Make Pong crab too huh
>>577237828That advice is right though
gentlemengather round i bring a gem
>>577237983Making pong or any game no matter how simple when you could be doing the official beginner tutorials for a good game engine is the worst way to learn gamedev.
>>577237828yeah i made pong in unity and the ball had square rigidbodys and the paddle would phase through the ball alot
>be making pong>okay now how do I make the score up>how do I trigger the game over>how do I... >end up constantly searching for each answer or digging through documentationDo the beginner tutorial for Unity, Godot or other engines and it shows you all of these things in 1 hour. "make pong" is crabbing. It's also used as an insult to attack anyone who wants to discuss game mechanics or ideas, because the crab is implying they don't know how to make a game yet and aren't allowed to discuss game design here until they can theoretically make pong.
>>577238467What Pong tutorial are you looking at where all of that isn't in the same doc? When Godot teaches you how to make Dodge the Creeps or whatever that's called, everything you need to know is in the same page.
>>577236881lol didn't realize, I'll make another one
NEW /bant/ THREAD>>>/bant/24818784>>>/bant/24818784>>>/bant/24818784
>>577238596>Godot teaches you how to make Dodge the Creeps or whatever that's called, everything you need to know is in the same page.Exactly, so just do that tutorial if you want to learn to make a game in Godot. And use the Unity beginner tutorials for Unity.>What Pong tutorial are you looking at None, and I never will, neither will anyone else, because the only person who says "make pong" in 2026 is a basket case loser who wants to gatekeep and crab strangers on the internet form making something cooler than his autismware.
>>577224826/pol/ is talking about you and your epic memes, you're famous!>>>/pol/540621492
>>577238467>>be making pong>>okay now how do I make the score up>>how do I trigger the game over>>how do I...Learn the basics of your tools first. Understand variables and conditionals outside of a specific tool, then learn how to tools apply variables and conditionals.
The pong autist is more than willing to keep arguing for the sake of his forced meme forever. He can't let it go. >>577240480>Learn the basics of your tools first.By doing the official tutorials for game engines, yes. Not by making a bad ramshackle version of pong.
>>577240869>The pong autist is more than willing to keep arguing for the sake of his forced meme forever. He can't let it go.
finally making progress on my gamefeeling goodin ayygeedeegee, do you think characters should have build freedom in an rpg? do you think that the allies you gain should be tied to their role, complete freedom in all progression, or hinted but not forced towards their role with increased stat growth in certain statsas much as i would love creative freedom, i feel a knight with a sniper rifle might be a touch off
I want to try to make a game with someone irl some day but that will literally never happen...
>>577230039I hate summer too>too hot in day to dev without AC usage>too hot to sleep without AC usage>apparently perfect temperature for many people to party and keep me up at night (temperature too hot to sleep, but just low enough for outside parties)I prefer it when temperatures are lower since these types do not party as much, it is easier to sleep, and if I want to dev I just need to put on a sweater. Oh and to make it worse, if the AC is on in Summer, my PC is in a spot where I get blasted with cold air. It makes it hard to dev when the cold is distracting me.>just put on a sweaterSomeone (I believe some random in public touching door handles or food product) infected me with warts so I'm trying to be minimal with what I touch until this fucking wart clears up. Got cryotherapy on it, now it looks nasty and diseased. Ugh wish I was rich and could just live somewhere secluded.
>>577240913^ the pong autist does things like this and wonders why nobody listens to him. He also starts gay memejams and creates characters for himself like "Ronny Redpill" and "The Mayor of 4chan". This is how he copes with being irrelevant in the gamedev scene.

>>577224826Idk man but I get the feeling that tweet is a lie by some AI obssesed nodev or advertiser.
>>577240913>>577241902All true.
>>577238980I can happily say I never have nor ever will make pong. Makes me feel so smug.>interviewer: today we have super successful agdg anon here, a question for you from audience member #102>audience member #102: i hear so many say to make pong as a way to learn game programming, is that good advice?>me: *chuckles* thats dumb advice, it is usually used by people trying to gatekeep others from making what they want to make. I never made pong and look at me now *chucks some more while wearing my iconic jacket*
>>577242443Thank you Ronny Redpill. Very nice.Didn't read btw
>>577242527>Thank you Ronny Redpill. Very nice.>Didn't read btw
>attempts to "win" arguments by simply spamming the threadHmm seems familiar. Probably just a coincidence. A burnout who can't gamedev and wants to force pong on everyone surely couldn't be the same burnout who resorted to trying to use AI and failed to make a game for the 8th time in his life. The same burnout who started a "make pong" jam from v3, where they shill AI in their discord.I wonder.
Obsessed
Today, I'm choosing Content Creation over Comfort Creation.
>>577208804>target locking
>>577242885That jam was vibecode slop btw, only 3 entries and 2 were vibecode slop. The spammer started getting real active after that. Then came the v3 jam whose rules state>AI usage: vibe coding is coolhttps://itch.io/jam/v3jam
Taxonomy is a game to me now.
>>577235518>My school library had PS1s you could borrow.That's fucking cool. I vaguely remember they experimented with borrowable games in libraries at some point over here but it didn't last long.
Hey you guys want to start an internet club? You give me 30% of your games revenue to pay for my yachts, then you can afford your own yachts. Has anyone ever thought of this before?

>>577243928Okay, keep sucking Gabens cock.
>>577243951>Okay, keep sucking Gabens cock.
He's going to keep quote spamming everyone now to seem impartial. Just remember, he started this meltie when getting called out for crabbing people about pong >>577240913which is what he also did as "Mayor of 4chan" when making the "make pong" vibecode slop "jam" with 3 entries.

A game where you progressively unlock cheats to win an impossibly difficult game.

>>577244396about what? his prototype is looking pretty good but target locking is a retarded mechanic for console mouth breathers who play games using a controller which is an inferior input device for 99% of games if his game is designed for keyboard and mouse as it should there's no point in having target locking
The cheats are just slight increments to your character stats.
>>577244968that's just games, scaled a little higher
>>577242046>I'm getting the feeling it's all a conspiracy!
>>577245124>target locking is a retarded mechanic for console mouth breathers who play games using a controllerYou should look up the stats on how many players use controllers on PC.
Is this the new meta for gamedevs? Girlfriend-maxxing so you don't have to wageslave and have time for devving?
>>577245828>Is this the new meta for gamedevs? Girlfriend-maxxing so you don't have to wageslave and have time for devving?
>>577245869Your answer?
>>577245828Yeah unironically. My buddy and I are making a game and his Mexican wife works and pays for everything, his living expenses and our claude sub.
>>577245828Women have more fun at their jobs than men do playing videogames. It's like highschool for them and they are paid to go. A dream come true.Offtopic polbait btw
>>577245283gamers are retardedyou as the dev are in control of how they play if you let them play retarded they will play retarded
>>577246093No one but you is talking about politics, based retard.
>>577246145Weird seethe reply but okay.
>>577246309where's the seethe? AAA games are shit because they thought that the gamer being retarded was a good thing and they kept encouraging that

>>577246370Just implement it yourself. 99% of features people are begging for are really not difficult and the only reason no one is adding them is to minimize bloat.>>577245828Eric Barone is finally vindicated.
>>577246370what feature?
haven't been here for a month or two, what happened to the ai schizo? i'm behind on aggydaggy lore
>>577246756Still around, just heavily medicated finally.
>>577246723Reparent function. >>577246628>Just implement it yourself.I mean I "sorta did" because it's not even a feature that would've been hard to implement or affect any engine logic, it's just syntactic sugar to not have to use RemoveChild and then AddChild over and over again, which happened often enough in my code to warrant it in my opinion. And seeing as they ended up adding it I assume I wasn't the only one. But yeah I'm just sorta rustled at the interaction and how confident the moderator was that this is an edge case that nobody else is ever going to need.
>>577246367AAA games are good. Modern games are good.Western games are good.That's why they sell.
>>577247068Have you ever seen Juan interact with the public? It's highly expected.People don't accidentally become haters of FOSS. They interact with the gatekeepers and devs a few times and that's all it takes.
>Getting people to try your game on Steam is now impossible and cost 100 usd>Getting people to try your game on itch.io is now impossible because you will be buried by the algoShould I make my own videogame portal with my own games and add a basic banner to earn money?Github pages is free, so why not?

>>577247275should note however that all software is like that, but the enterprise companies have a lot of experts hired to interact smoothly with the public and FOSS rarely does.
>>577247284You're starving under the fig tree.
>>577247284If you think simply putting your game on a site or service will get you players you should educate yourself on marketing. Hoping the algorithms show your game to people is not a strategy. Market your game by showing it to people.If you don't do this, your game will flop. If you make your own website, you will still need to market it in order to get people to look at your games. Might as well just market your games.
>>577247783so what's the advantage of itch and steam over me making my own portal using cloudfare pages?At least with cloudfare pages I can put some ads and make money by making super mario mmo, or cloning NES shit as webassembly.I have no traffic on itch.io and no money to put random projects on steam.

>>577247998It means you can sell your loli rape pokemon game without Steam or Itch breathing down your neck for problematic content.
Lulz be
>>577247452Figs taste terrible, I'd rather starve.
>>577247998>so what's the advantage of itch and steam over me making my own portal using cloudfare pages?People trust those services. They won't trust your website. You think enough people will visit your website to make money on ads, that would require millions of visitors. How are you going to acquire them without marketing your website?Might as well just market your games. >I have no traffic on itch.io and no money to put random projects on steam.Show your games to people who want them, then maybe they will go to your itch. Make a game people want enough and they will pay you for the game. Save $100 on itch sales then go on steam.This probably sounds like a lot to you, too much, so you will continue to fantasize about some other solution that doesn't require you to make a good game and market it. >making super mario mmo, or cloning NES shit as webassemblyLike that.I know I just wasted keystrokes replying to you, but maybe this advice will help someone else.
>>577247173lol
Fat fuck punishment breakfast. Yesterday I didn't eat anything I wasn't supposed to, so I'm hoping to get a streak of that going.79 days left. Today I'm going to fix a new bugs and then do 1st pass on the procedural skybox system. I was going to defer it for after the game sinks or swims but it's just one of those things that won't leave me alone.
>>577246370The problem with so many open sores projectsLike just stop being stubborn autists and listen to your users in the first place and stop wasting years just to come to the arrive at the same conclusion ffs
>>577247284I had 100 people try my steam demo and I didn't even have any social media etc. I'm getting too much feedback to even respond now. just have a good capsule and upload the demo during the appropriate festival(luck involved, could have nothing eligible...)
It's time you apologized to him.
>>577250638I didn't know he was sick
>>577250638lol he pushed a vibecode slop jam and it flopped. Sloppers were really brazen back then because they still thought 2026 was going to be their year or something. I still think it's highly likely he was the AI spammer, all those slop images and cartoons that he was seemingly proud of. That's got "Mayor of 4chan" written all over it.
>>577250243Your breakfast looks like my dinner... Except I don't even get a salad for that.
>>577251316that bus game was bussin' tho
>>577251521My condolences. My every meal is ideally like that. Bland, cheap, nutritionally optimized, just what a soulless husk like me needs.
>>577251572Nah not that one, his jam was the "make pong" jam. It just had his vibecoded pong slop and maybe one poor soul who thought it was worth submitting a genuine pong build to.
>>577251572You're thinking of this one in the v3 jamhttps://itch.io/jam/v3jam/rate/4267329
>>577250243If you really dislike being fat, you should fast. Look up snake juice fasting protocol, do it for a few days, a few weeks. You will see the light at the end of the tunnel. There is no other way. Fasting is basically illegal in the mainstream because if everyone did it we wouldn't have an obesity crisis to boon the medical industry and people would spend less money on food, affecting the economy. It's a spiritual booster and makes people consoom less.You will also lose your craving for sweets.
>>577251817my memory is FUCKSERSD
>>577252065Fasting works but so does eating meat. The reason they demonize eating meat is because it's the thing humans should eat to stay healthy.
>>577163367Fake and gayNo valve isn't checking if the art in games is AIValve doesn't even check if games contain malware these days
>>577252065I can't into fasting, my brain needs to keep working and I can't be distracted thinking about how hungry I am. With meals like >>577250243 I'll lose 8-9kg of fat in 4 months with very little muscle loss which would put me at my ideal weight.
>>577253092Understandable, I've done it the slow and proper way before as well but it didn't spiritually change me, I was still a fat person inside. Fasting seems to have changed that. Food no longer has any kind of hold on me, and if I do eat what feels like a lot, it's really nothing when I count the calories. It just feels like a lot. Anyway if you do fast you won't have anything on your plate to take pictures of. Just keep going.
I hope the next v3jam has kino games like the bus game or the submarine game. I really hope they don't try to make the prompt a dick joke again, they should take it seriously.
Where do I find like 2d hit effects? Like that sort of stuff that has like a couple frames of animation but it's not a full on 3d particle effect but just a flat thing or even just the raw images.

I'm going to disclose I use AI code on my steam page, even though I don't have to. This must be what the gays felt in the 2000s.
Someone on /v/ posted this analysis on games.Is this true?
>>577256975>70% of 2027 Japan GDP is meccha sales.

>>577258929meccha chameleon
>>577258929It's too subjective to the player to be analyzed like this. Nubbys Number Factory doesn't have a story. RDR2 does but makes you wade through a slow intro chapter before getting to gameplay. Both games succeeded.

>>577228841You know, I would say something right now, but I wouldn't want my antisemitism to be met with a cease and desist and then a ban from life.So all I'll say is at least my game is not for actual goy cattle so I don't even need to think about rabbilox.
>>577258871I just can't get over the hypocrisy and virtue signaling from some people about it. Like the same people who will go>Oh wow valve /cares/ about the customer because they make developers disclose their AI use>Gamers /deserve/ to know how a game is made they are owed that>If you're against the AI disclosure you're just a scammer who hates gamers!but they have no problems with the fact that a game's gameplay, like the actual GAME part of the GAME, could be entirely AI made and they don't have to declare their AI usage -Like oh awesome the entire interactive part of the game was made by AI and that's cool but you need to eat shit and die if you used AI to generate a single grass texture, you're killing the environment and forcing artists to starve!
>>577260328No. He's just another slopper schizo. But unlike the others he has created multiple different gay personalities for himself like "Ronny Redpill" and "Mayor of 4chan". He likes to sexually harrass Fygoon in the /v/ threads and imply that he's the AI spammer when most likely, it's just been this vibe slopping tard the entire time.Loves telling people to "Make pong".
>>577256286Every airline would have hundreds of pilots who know the truth.
>>577260632Hey, I'm the main pongposter in this general and I'm sincere about it. Why is it so hard to spend 2 weeks making a complete shippable Pong?
>>577260548>virtue signalingNobody wants your slop. It's not a virtue to dislike soulless garbage.
>>577258929Its actually a buffet of various main dishes and players will be happy just eating their prefered food unless one of the dishes stinks so much it ruins their appetite.
>>577260752If you didn't want soulless garbage you wouldn't be praising the AI disclosure in the current state that doesn't require entirely vibe coded games to be disclosed.
>>577260843Yeah I don't care about all your mental gymnastics. You think throwing out buzzwords like "virtue signaling" strengthens your argument against people having certain tastes for their media.

>>577259585>Nubbys Number Factory doesn't have a storyAnd houses have different sorts of rooms but a game must have gameplay the same as a house must have a foundation. I'd say it's quite suitable as an analogy. Code is the framing, piping and electrical work that makes the house function as a house.
>>577262209sorry, we don't do house analogies here. can you explain it in terms of food?
>>577262209>but a game must have gameplayuhhhh then explain AAA games or VNs, dumb fuck. Gaymores don't care about gameplay, they just want gayplay.
>>577260548>hypocrisy There's no hypocrisy. Nobody cares about code you monkey, whether it's AI or human-made. Programmers made the AI so why would anyone care about programmers getting the boot? Art GODS are the pharaoh class and you're the plebs pulling the chariot.
>>577262627How about a soup analogy? Soup must have some sort of liquid to make it a soup but the ingredients can vary wildly.
>>577260548gameplay is just the foundation. what we want, the experience, is all the human crafted stuff that sits on top of it.
>Did you use AI to code your game? DID YOU?>I-I-I I can't remember! m-m-m-m-mommy!!!!!

>>577264571some players are good! like one finished in 8 minutes. my best is 12. rhythm/reaction sort of game
>>577258929Depends on the game.Rocket League is the one on the left but it's only gameplay and visuals. There's no lore whatsoever as to why you're playing car soccer, and if there was that'd be retarded.Most AAA games are the one on the right but the foundation is paper thin and hasn't been innovated on or improved in 20 years, meanwhile the visuals consists of ugly women but enough spectacle to keep the cattle engaged, and the story is probably some girlboss berating the main character for being male.Gameplay is actually a decent thing to focus on due to the lack of innovation in AAA, measurable improvements to existing systems might draw attentionhttps://www.reddit.com/r/SoloDevelopment/comments/1vl1o82/how_my_trailer_generated_100000_views_1000/
can anons explain something to me>try out planet crafter cause someone recommended it to me>it's pretty fun and i get the appeal but it's extreme jank in some places>bots just move in a straight line and clip through everything - 20 walls in the way? no problem>everything physics related is default unity physics engine, the car feels like default wheel collider>meteors create rubble but it's unmovable and you have to rely on luck to get anything out of them>progression is literally "IF stat X > Y, then unlock Z", everything looks like very simple stuff to code>the world isn't even procedural, it's all static mini biomes, a few squared kms tops, shit looks manually placed to the smallest rock>unoptimized>very basic animations in a lot of places>basically no collision/culling in a lot of places, like insects or trees clipping into buildingsi could go on but you get the idea. it's a nice game and i had fun, but is that it? it's jank city, is that all it takes?
>>577264436>>577264615Observe, the same tactic /g/ must employ to silence sloppers. Just ask them to post something. Or even name something. Provide an ounce of substance. They are like a vapor, dissipating instantly.
>>577265336>https://www.reddit.com/r/SoloDevelopment/comments/1vl1o82/how_my_trailer_generated_100000_views_1000/That's a neat trailer but the dev is trying way too hard to formulate some kind of guide here. They had a great concept and demonstrated it. 80% of what they wrote in that OP seems off the mark though. It's a shame to see someone strike gold like this and immediately think the best thing to do is try to farm it harder in various ways, wanting to establish themself as a marketing guru.
>>577265836they're smart trying to pivot to shovel salesman as soon as possible
>Sold my house to stay indie. Worked 7 days a week for three years. My first solo game GROUND ZERO HERO launches in 9 days.Reddit should just delete posts like this.
>>577265469here is an ounce. slotbound. near 100k wishlists thanks to the fun demo.
>>577266487Yeah, already mentioned in this thread. Looks neat. I know of maybe one other vibecoded game that did well but that's about it. 2 games in 2 years. The public is simply not warming up to AI the way it has been promised they would, nor are actual AI gamedevs releasing enough games. At least nothing that you actually hear about.
>>577265836I think they're just sharing an observation on a forum. There's plenty of 'gurus' here too.Also getting a few views doesn't mean you're making a successful game, there's plenty of games which do numbers in videos and then flop or have middling success. Games like Paper Sky for example, someone might watch a video of the paper plane flying through a level, but they won't buy the game... also damn that's not out yet? I just thought it was an interesting observation.
>>577266936>Step 1 - Choose a popular, classic genre for your game - FPS, RTS, or RPG.>Step 2 - Find and play the best games in the popular genre, if you haven't already.>Step 3 - Study the game's mechanics - and brainstorm ways to improve them.>CAUTION:>Do not think "How can I stand out by adding a quirky/unique twist to the formula".This is not an observation. This is a guide.
>>577264282The fig tree is mindbreaking gamedevs again...
>>577266179its either that or "here's a game I vibecoded and genned all the assets for and even used chatgpt to write this reddit post" literally every day. Every gamedev subreddit that doesn't actively persecute AI niggers like /r/godot is just flooded with slop, zero upvotes, one comment saying 'ai slop'.
>>577265468Are you talking about this? The game with 36,000 reviews?https://store.steampowered.com/app/1284190/The_Planet_Crafter/>is that all it takes?lol
>>577265468proving >>577263850 correct while outing yourself as a nodev.
Yeah, gaming is insane. An indie game earns 100 trillion dollars and is still disrespected by some as if it's an average jank title. Very dystopian.
>LOOKS LIKE SHIT!!not an argument lmfao still in early access btw

>>577262867>No one cares about the gameplay in a video gameGo make a comic or something you pretentious hack
>>577267670>>577267856yes, that's the game. i'm not claiming it's easy to make, i'm just surprised at the amount of things that i hoenstly consider to be of shitty quality. like hover labels on buildings for example, which don't really scale well and are hard to read in some circumstances, just jank stuff like that. seems like majority of people playing this game just don't care about things like that at all.
>>577269816>quotes my post but adds his own words instead and then attacks this imaginary person and claims victory Why do some "people" do this?
>>577269816He said nobody cares about code, and he's correct as long as the game remains performant. As for the implication that gameplay is itself being designed by AI, nobody believes that and it's a disingenuous argument implying that games are being made by AI in a way that can't be disclosed. The irony is that these are two sloppers arguing with eachother using hamfisted sarcasm and strawmans.
Shitposting is fun, but some of the "discussions" that take place here are just not healthy to even be exposed to, let alone get involved in. My last voluntary break was for a number of months and I think I'll need to do that again, maybe 40 days and 40 nights, just go back to lurking. My dopaminergic schizo tendencies demand this if I'm to remain productive on my game. >>577252065Intermittent fasting is good too. Only eating during an 8 hour window, calories are naturally restricted, the hormonal/insulin management is great for healthy weight loss, and muscle loss is avoided easily especially with weight lifting.Have a great month everyone.
I'm creating a cozy deckbuilding roguelite farming sim. It's like stardew meets animal crossing meets untitled goose game meets halo meets bible black. I'm calling it "manus coitum" which is latin for "farm story"
>>577270603holy gmi bat man
>>577270676See you tomorrow.
>>577265468>>577269983Indeed the standards for this sort of game are pretty low. Open world crafty survival genre is evergreen and for the no-combat comfy types there's not a lot of options so all the half-decent ones are popular. With the right skill set and a year or two of dev time it wouldn't be that hard to compete in this space. Having no combat makes it way easier since getting combat timed and animated right is about the hardest part for making such a game aside from netcode. It has combat but Icarus is one of the more popular of the space themed ones and it is a genuine shovelware kusoge that doesn't deserve a single one of the sales it has, its quality is that low. And yet the Icarus devs keep milking retards with overpriced DLC that adds fuck all content.
Enemies can counter attack now, player also can counter with a timed block to stagger enemies and the block needs to be aimed, it's based on whether the attack is aiming for the head and body, might change this to be a difficulty setting though since my old man brain was struggling to keep up with it at times.with sound - https://i.4cdn.org/wsg/1786543523952474.webm

>>577273056cool, now take over https://made-by-agdg.vercel.app/ for me, I can't be bothered with it anymore.
>>577270342The code IS the gameplay. The two things are inseparable. >No one cares about the meat and bread but they do care about the sandwich
>>577273504Its more like>I don't want a lab grown sandwich but I don't care if the meat was grown in a lablike ????
>>577265336>>577265836That's a neat game. As a trailer it isn't so good. I get that it's focused on the mechanics but I think he should have had a short real gameplay oriented clip at the start to get people engaged. >Instead, think - "How can I improve on the core mechanics I see in this established formula, even if only by 10%"?>Now this might sound daunting, but your game doesn't have to be better across all areas (art, music etc). However, if making, say - a First Person Shooter, be sure to ask yourself: "How will my game be better than Call of Duty and Battlefield - even if its better at only one specific aspect. You're better off making a generic game with one clear improvement over the current kings of the genre than a unique derivative that stands out but doesn't try to be better in any particular dimension.Here's the good point of his "guide". He's making a first person melee game and went all in on how to make that melee interesting. His examples of BF and CoD are a bit off imo since his own approach isn't really comparable but the point stands. Making a hyper focused game like that is a very valid strategy and if you can make that thing something people get excited about you're well on your way to success as long as you can deliver.
>>577273641Yeah lol>Durr we don't want AI slop video games! >I don't care if everything that actually makes it a video game was made by AI tho :3Just slopper cope, its retarded on its face.

Around 100 games release on Steam alone EACH DAY.About 700 games in the week around your release.AAA release? Successful release AAA or indie, in your genre? BOOM you are done.Also, not only are you competing with other new releases, but the entire backlog of games on every system a player owns. :)Take all the "indie success stories" you can think of in the past 10 years and divide it by the number of devs in that time who have tried (again, 100 games a day, 3000 a month) and there's your historical likelihood of "making it."Steam cut, higher self-employment taxes, no benefits, no retirement, AND to top it all off: Your sales diminish over time, so even if you hit this "mediocrity lottery" you'll have to do it all over again in a couple years.>He thinks that indie gamedev can provide a sustainable primary income in 2026HahahahahaH O B B YOBBY

>>577266892AI gamedevs (and general software devs) are releasing a ton of stuff with AI assistance. However disclosing AI use is voluntary and will only hurt your product's branding so most people just lie about it since it's so hard to prove.
>>577273504>The code IS the gameplay.Let me make this easy for your monkey brain.You have graphics code (triangle rendering and colors) -> and graphics (actual imagery/models you want displayed) on a higher level. And you have gameplay code -> and actual gameplay concepts on the higher level. Nobody cares about the code part as long as the higher level isn't affected too much. Whether the character controller is made by you, bought from a store or made by an AI it doesn't matter if it behaves the same way the GAME DESIGNER intended. Usually the game designer or project lead is in charge of the deciding and making the gameplay, the code monkey just puts what he says in machine code for the PC to understand. You are expendable. We're past the point where programmers matter on an individual level (i.e. Doom era.)
>>577291062>is it that hard to not do so much drugs, he said to the addict
>>577291434>as long as the higher level isn't affected too much.people who say this end up ironically bragging about their dogshit code
>>577224826>meet pure vibe coder>they try to push their work on me immediately>I stay chill and hear them out>"coding is too hard for me" etc>eventually I see one of their prompts>"make a mmo lol" with zero creativity or directionThere are responsible ways to use AI. Ideally you understand every piece of code your AI is producing. Ideally you understand how AI thinks so you aren't offloading impossible tasks to it and getting shit results. Otherwise AI should be used as a tool to help you or save you time. I can imagine vibe coding entire games being possible in the future, but it will still require ridiculous amounts of time put into prompting and tweaking things to get something decent unless it's a really simple game.

>>577297390A lot of retards will claim gameplay is the only thing that matters, and not understand the gameplay relies on non-gameplay elements to complete it.Original Doom is probably the most solid example of this.

>>577299531I read his reply to that and the replies to his reply and now I hate everybody involved and wish the worst on them all
I need a week off working on my game. I'm going to burn out and crash. Why did I have to try jobby dev
>>577302826Social media makes clowns of us all.
>>577302826I also hate people who use twitter... but you know what I hate even more? people who use twitter and talk about how they use it on 4chan.So fuck (You) and fuck >>577299531
>>577303365Social media is socializing me to be a know it all and argue with/correct everyone because that's all people do on the internet. It has lead me to think that way in IRL conversations and that has lead to serious arguments with people in my life. I need a break from it all so I can re-learn to talk like a normal person.
>>577303408I don't use twitter, I looked at the replies on nitter dot net
>>577303967>I need a break from it all so I can re-learn to talk like a normal person.You won't be able to do that if you don't have "normal people" who don't use social media to talk with.
>>577299531So like does Jon even have an office in some building where all his gamedev wagies go to or is it all WFH? You think Jon would ever show up to an /agdg/ meetup?

>>577305432All indian contractors in new delhi perblee

>>577306480HOLY KEKAROOI WOULDN'T PLAY THAT SHIT FOR FREE AND I'VE PAID HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS FOR GAMES I'VE NEVER EVEN INSTALLED LET ALONE TOUCHED.
>>577306620I bet you wouldn't say that to his face at the gym
>>577306480>how the algorithm works against you, and why most indie games never find an audience.it's always people making the absolute worst dogshit who try to doom things.This out of touch boomer with self-admitted 0 experience can't just gamedev for a hobby and have fun, he has to put his abomination on steam and whine because it's not getting gobbled up by the piggies
>10% of games make about as much money as the median earner in a developed country or up to several millions of dollars.To be better than 90% of the slop you see on Steam is hardly an achievement.
>>577307249We need to go back to the era of flash games where if an inexperienced dev made a low quality game as a learning project they would release it for free instead of expecting money just because they put effort into something. Many people will look past bugs, bad graphics, most issues really if the game is free and it's a great way to get your name out there for when you're a good enough dev that your games are actually worth something.
>>577307763>Many people will look past bugs, bad graphics, most issues really if the game is free6 year olds are not people.>get your name out thereNo one will ever give a fuck about your name.

In Godot, is there any difference to running battle logic through a generic node with a script attached, with several sub-nodes that also have scripts attached and possible further sub-nodes with scripts - compared to using classes and no nodes? Nodes seem so much simpler for my tard brain.
>>577153068They're based on a recurring symbol related to Herrko, as a way to tie all the civilizations into a certain connection.Part of the worldbuilding I'm setting up for them.It's also something I'm kinda proud of because at some point, you end up with certain design traits and symbols around your characters, that it becomes a bit easier to add stuff because of the established design elements, so things feel like they're part of their respective worlds.Even though "throwing stuff around and seeing what clicks" is part of how some ideas at first came to be.>>577156952I mean, I was always mixing up references, both real life and stuff I like.Nortubel itself being based on Portuguese culture and have it coexist with settings based on cultures and works that I enjoy.I do make sure what I make is unique or at least references some underrated and good.This is part of why I have that MEGA gallery and even YT playlist of stuff I find neat.>>577139315 He's one of the people that told me about the spammer, so not at all.I do hope he's fine, even if he won't return to gamedev.
>>57730844950k is not far off from median income and well above minimum wageMakes for a good wagie life, especially if you release one game per year.
>>577306480very nice code. clean tidy descriptive comments.
>>577308642Using Resources (or better yet RefCounted if it never needs to be duplicated or saved) is better for performance if you don't need the features a Node provides.
>>577308642If your scripts are attached to organized Nodes, you can very easily turn on and off specific scripts by enabling/disabling the Node on the fly during a live run.
>>577299057They are for sure stealing peoples code through VS.
>>577308741Well my beef with it is more so the fact of how wide they made that distribution 50k - 1m. Lol it gives the impression there is a lot of easy success going on. I would not be surprised the values come out to something like>$50k - $100k = 80%>$100k - $1m = 20%Also I doubt the games making serious money are averaging 1 year development times with only 1 dev making said game.
>>577224175what os
>>577306706I mean yeah, I'm not eldon betz so I don't feel like doxxing a random indie dev to soothe my own inadequacy and micro penis syndrome.I'm just speaking my heart it looks like shit, even cris has a better chance of gmi.They both look the same age, except maybe cris is older and more of a pathetic tragic failure.
>>577308642Stick to nodes if you find them easier to work with. You can do anything logic related in a script/ refcounted/ resource, too, but there is no real advantage (other than not having to deal with the scene tree, but you don't seem bothered by it)
>>577308863>>577308915>>577310476Thanks. I'm still practicing the basics making a simple RPGmaker style battle scene that itself only holds battle logic and generic placeholders for the scene, while actual content will be loaded from resources / globals / elsewhere. Only stuff in the scene will be static images, UI and small Sprite2D animations, while a bunch of scripts will handle the battle logic, so this shouldn't be too resource intensive. I'll try to wrap my head around nodeless scripting as well later.

I can't believe that fucking piece of shit banned me from his groomcord just because I was being very extremely antisemitic and transphobic.

>>577317260Am I the only one who does not understand project zomboid?Maybe it's just not playable on steam deck and the compatibility checkmark fucking lied to me but I just don't get it.It's genuinely boring and I can't even open the fridges.

It too now has a steam version which is also milking fanboys that just don't know when to stop. Milking fanboys at a more reasonable $6.99. total reviews 252if you can make a good enough fork it seems you can milk losers who can't help themselves but give money to everyone.

if i really said how tough i am it'd look like i need to be recognized and i really don't just not give a fuck. but there's more too it than that and my intellect is far greater than this script kiddie and i'm seriously beautiful
