when did AGDG become so toxic? I have not been here since i released my game.Suddenly i dont feel like participating on demo day
>>578055076You've made me check the /bant/ thread and it's still alive and kicking. Try posting in that thread if you want encouragement or constructive criticism.>>>/bant/24818784props to the mexican anon who single-handedly kept the general alive
Trying to make a RimWorld clone was the most humbling experience I've ever had in my life.The code base requires a level of planning that is atypical in indie games.
What's the name of that guy who always looks tired and gives out awful advice while making awful anomaly games?

>>578055903
>>578052648>>578053156This makes for great twitter bait but isn't necessarily a good approach to making an actual game.
>>578056757This is some nodev take. Why the fuck would using Unity make your game feel like other Unity games? If it does then you're using assets in which case the problem is (You) not the engine.
I’ve been pulling one strand of hair each day for a couple of months now waiting until bokube is released and my scalp hurts

isnt this the guy selling very expensive game marketing counseling
>>578052921was nortubel the guy who shipped kat and spike from the /v/ drawthreads?
>>578060726No. It's some other guy with the same name. There are apparently lots of Chris Zukowskis out there.https://www.mobygames.com/search/?q=chris+zukowski&page=0&type=person
>>578058029It's just a gamer take, I can always tell if I'm playing a unity game without seeing the engine logo. They all feel the same, they all use the same character controllers and shit because Unity devs don't write their own code or make their own assets a lot on the time.This happens less so with Godot slop so it's less obvious.
>>578058923You can do what bigger games do sometimes and just give them fixed emotes and words like "hello!" or "thanks!" Nothing to moderate then but the player can still kinda interact enough to play.
>>578062027If anything it's Unreal where the template abuse is a real argument. Absolutely no such case with Unity unless you're talking about some asset flip tier shit that nobody should play in the first place. Make better games. Oh right you don't make any.
Has the sortslop genre peaked?
>>578062504Well, that's why I said "slop" and not literally every unity game. I've made a couple games, but I also play games. Normal thing to do. Devs who don't play video games suck at making games most of the time.
>>578062501>You can [just let them win]Correct.
Will JBlow's game beat the best 3D sokoban-like of all time?

I need to see a collab video between Chris Zukowski and Casey Muratori. It will be a battle of nodev influencers whose only accomplishment is making YouTube videos about how to make a game.
Can someone give me some hopefuel inspiration to keep going? Solodev’n…
>>578066863Make porn.
are unity's wheel colliders fundamentally bugged?i thought i'd try them out and no matter what i do, if i want to make a more grippy car, the wheels jitter and spaz out. like constant micro bouncing at 60 herz. honestly tried for an entire day, and the only thing that "helps", i.e. makes it tolerable, is setting the physics step to be like 0.001 instead of the default 0.02.i feel like they're just fundamentally broken in some way. i read dozens of threads with the exact same problem and people write "do this" or "set this" and nothing helps.
>>578068032If you're making a vehicle, it needs to be a kinematic controller, not rigid body physics. A real physics simulation isn't going to be nearly accurate enough, no matter the engine. IRL tires inherently come with a lot of tolerance because they're very soft and on a suspension (not rigid) and a computer can't simulate that easily.
>>578063430My solutions:Painfully animate itOnly mirror things that need to be symmetrical like hips, feet, spine, etc. but leave the arms aloneDo turning in code rather than in animationChange the staff position to be held in both hands rather than one while the character movesORMake the character put the staff in some kind of neutral position before they move, such as on their back or maybe they make it float and follow them or some shit (if you're going for some magical character)
>>578063897>Gaben givesEven if this were true (its not) he doesn't give you anything.You pay money to be on steam.
>>578063897Back in the day, every game got a free spot on the front page for the entire day
>>578068414That's reasonable thing is its 7 characters total Ive done 3 down I guess Im getting slightly better. First walking animation took me hours. This one half an hour. But theyre not optimal. Ill have to make the camera distant in game so its kind of hidden how shit my animations are
>>578054134Damn, I remember this game being revealed, looked kind of unique at the time.
Will I have to manage a subreddit/discord for my game if i want to be a success? kinda dont want to
>>578055514Why do those threads keep getting deleted though?
>>578068032It's been a long time since I tried any vehicle stuff but make sure your car's collider isn't clipping the wheel colliders. I think you can put them on different layers so you can have the wheels only interacting with the environment. It might be worth grabbing one of the vehicle packages on asset store and use that as a basis. From what I remember setting it all up yourself and getting good results was too much effort.
>>578070016People are gonna get mad for suggesting it but yeah, also AI mods make it a lot easier these days.
>>578070056/bant/ doesn't have archives, so all threads that get pushed off the catalog after reaching page 10 get deleted.
>>578070016Just let fans manage a discord or subreddit if your game is popular. It's unprofessional to interact with your customers on a personal level, all you need to worry about is getting information out there via whatever platform you prefer - I personally like when devs only distill info on Steam or their website or whatever. Do not waste time entertaining kids on Discord or whatever, it's unprofessional.
>>578068405>it needs to be a kinematic controller,what do you mean, with wheel colliders? that won't work iirc, the vehicle just stops moving>>578070256yeah i'll double check it again but it's looking grim
>be me>make a game
>>578057835That looks very ambitious, especially for a solo dev.
>>578071174I just mean that everything needs to happen in a script without relying much on the physics engine. i.e. Align the wheels to the ground using raycasts instead of gravity. Animate the wheel rotation through values in the script instead of friction against the ground. Calculate the ideal performance of an ackermann steer and animate the vehicle's velocities relative to that, with any additional states like drifting if that's a part of your game.If this all sounds too much, you're way better off listening to the other anon and buying a vehicle controller out of the asset store. They do pretty much everything I described.
>>578071427>>be mebut Im me
>>578071836That's for sure. The one copying MGS is also a bit weird since he's going for a super cartoony style. I just don't see that working together with a sneaky spy game or any TPS with that much effort in its animations. It works in twitter but would MGS fans buy a game like that? I'm not so sure.
I wish I had a hundred million dollars and I was working on a derivative game of my first incredibly successful game and I could take 10 years to do it or never release it at all and it wouldn't matter.instead I'm trying to decide between joining the military and making a homeless gamedev youtube channel
>>578072945do both, join the military, most of it is idling doing nothing you could be making your game in the meantime while having financial support from bullshit job
>>578072089okay, i get it. yeah i can do all that, but i wanted to try out the wheel collider and it seems like it's just unusable

>>578076641>I don't know who "he" isit's better that way
>>578064213I'd agree but it could be because of key reselling. sell your game at 20 on steam, sell keys at 10 on your site. people get the benefits of steam without paying them anything, with unfair pricing tilting the field.
>>578077087that's against steams's ToS
>>578077341READ WHAT I REPLIED TO IDIOT
>>578077539ok
If I include a story element that is an allegory for the ramifications of unchecked immigration and the great replacement will my game flop or will it get free marketing like Knight's Path?
>>578043098>they don't really like making games they like the idea of making games*ahem* right here. The process is not fun at all. I wouldn't be surprised if some successful people are like this as well. In fact there was one who even admitted it. I think I'd like it more if I didn't have to handle the whole thing, ie just make some of the art or some of the code that goes into the overall game. >>578048253Had I actually maintained the dream, then I could have become a flash dev first and then moved onto other stuff and then the golden age. Reeeeee all I had to do was not give up on the dream of being a gamedev. I still remember those drawings I made. Even if I failed at making a successful game it'd have likely led me down the path of becoming a gamedev at Nintendo. At least I'd have a job.
What about those third party websites selling keys… sure it’s not the dev selling their game cheaper but it still breaks the TOS? Thought I haven’t heard steam delisting those games.
>>578079024It was never about the process. It was always about the result.The most delicious food you can think of eating will get old if you're eating it for several hours almost daily for a year or so.People who "enjoy the process" of writing code or whatever are coping larpers.
>>578078931I had a similar idea at one point; an Indian ceo takes over a small American town and starts tormenting its habitants because he’s rootless in USA yet he can’t swallow his pride and move back to India and lose the status and money.What is your idea?
>>578080115Pretty much exactly what's happening with Muslims in Europe but with fantasy races like Orcs and Goblins. Haven't thought it out too much yet.

>>578079113You can, but Steam doesn't count any key games towards your algorithm score, so you'd be missing out on Steam visibility and possibly even more money than you'd be making otherwise.
>>578080491enjoy it while it lasts
>>578080491That's right. Welcome to the flow zone.
At day I find bugs in my game, at night I find bugs in the shitty flat I'm renting while trying to sleep. I love being an indie game developer.Indie Game The Movie made the lifestyle seem a bit more appealing though, kinda like a rock star's but for nerds.
>>578077341Something being against Steam terms of service doesn't mean it's not anticompetitive or anti consumer or whatever. You can still dislike the policy if you want even if it's a "rule."I think valve is currently getting sued for the rule anyway so might not be a thing forever.

>>578091818only people who had the poorfag subscription are ditching claude cuz antrhopic did a month long +50% weekly credit bonus and it's now ended today so they are going to competition but it was just the pro subs, the max x5 and max x20 were not affected either wayfable is still great

do you think it would hurt your sales to make a full version of the game available on itch and then the paid version on steam?I just saw an open source game with free download on their website that made $60k+ so I've been wondering if it's something that's not even a big deal

a hard pill to swallow is that, if gabencunt banned you from ever releasing your game on steam, your game dev journey is fucking done forever. time to search for a wageslave job steam is the only serious gamedev platform that exists rn
do it like jon blow. write your own engine. make your own game. alone. all by yourself. and ofc also have a million dollars and hire a bunch of people and freelancers to help making that game. but don't forget, you made it alone, from scratch.
>>578098009you have to actively try to be a retard, to get banned on stream.

maybe yesdev is all vibe. you gotta listen to fantasy music playlists. watch nice fantasy movies and old shows and old animes. and eventually you'll get in the vibe again. the modern slop can't create that vibe, therefore you wont get in the yesdev mood.don't consume what's new and popular, consume what's good quality.

last time i yesdev'ed was after i spent an honest effort analyzing the market, analyzing myself, my budget, my skills, my possibilities and then i eventually came up with a realistic game idea. and it worked out.then i have some irl trouble and months of nodev and i totally lose track.then i come back to gamedev and wait until i "feel it" or "have an idea", but it never happens.it seems like you really have to "work" on an idea, you have to figure out whats viable. it's not just something that magically appears through inspiration.the thing is, the more you theorycraft it, the more you can actually explain why you make that game. you can explain why you don't make something else, how constraints guide your decisions, what is already on the market, what do people play.also while analyzing steam you realize there's so much trash that it's technically not competition and that actually a very very very tiny amount of people actually make "real" games.you just have to stop listening to "just do it" and "follow your passion" bros. you gotta think through it and come to conclusions. it really helps when you can explain to yourself why you chose a project beyond just "i feel like". also it gives you more security, cause "i feel like" can result in dumb ass scope that is impossible, whereas "i thought that through" means you actually know it's possible.
modern devs can't help themselves turning everything into a funny quirky cute art style, no matter what genre/theme
stop doomscrolling, start steamscrolling.you are a gamedev, so spend time looking at games, not at social media.

I was thinking the twist at the end of my game would be that it was all a game, like nothing was real. thoughts?
>>578121221When I was a little kid, I read an otherwise fantastic children's fantasy book that ended with the revelation that all the fantastical elements were a product of the children's imagination. Even as a drooling semi-baby who still pissed his bed, I could still realize that made no sense if you thought about the actual events that took place for more than 2 seconds, since you'd realize they had concrete consequences towards subsequent plot developments. The fact I'm still pissed about that to this day should tell you all you need to know about these sorts of meta-fictional twists. You only do that if you are one of those types that thinks there is virtue in antagonizing a (hopefully nonexistent) audience.

Where did you get your game models from?
Your art doesn't have to be great. It just needs to clearly communicate the gameplay and the fantasy. Less can be more. Work smarter.

>>578077087>sell your game at 20 on steam, sell keys at 10 on your siteNo one would actually do that for the same reason digital games don't have a lower MSRP than physical games, you simply pocket the margin difference and don't pass the savings to the consumer the developer is happy with a bigger margin and the store (steam/app store/walmart/etc) doesn't have to compete with a lower price, the only reason epic pulled off their stunt on ios is to break apple's monopoly on ios and eventually get their own store on there.

>>578144421Are you really going to consider Metal Gear 2 the equivalent of Witcher 3? My point from the start is that Cris hasn't played any modern RPGs not because he doesn't want to, but because he physically can't.
>>578095926I know it's early access but how the fuck did they ship with that mess of a combat? Melee is awful and mage enemies can backpedal at full speed while casting their magics. This sort of shit should have been worked out in the first couple months of dev.
I haven't checked on this general ever since that big wave of doxing that started with YtC. How's the thread lore? Is Fygoon still around? Who has joined/left the inner circle lately? Any new progress from Tomo? Nortubel still postin'? I see Bokube is still not out.

>>578111368When you get those>I have an ideamoments you should write that idea up. Just put anything that comes to mind relating to it into words. It doesn't have to be detailed. It's an idea to be stored in your idea book. Sometimes you'll find yourself coming back to the same idea over time, I think that's when you should start to consider it as a real possible project. If you keep returning to it that suggest there might be something to it. It might be worth pursuing. When deciding what to actually work on I agree that you gotta do more work. There needs to be a reason, a purpose. As you put it you have to know why you're working on *this* instead of *that*. If you ever come to doubt yourself you can go back to that reasoning. Sometimes you will find that what you thought didn't hold up or maybe the demo isn't turning out as good as you hoped and you will have to reconsider but it is still important to have that baseline so that you can reflect on it.When you have an idea and go straight to working on it there's no long term plan you're just doing it because it excites you in that moment. That is fine if it's just to prototype the idea. Quick and dirty just to see how it feels. But to go beyond a prototype it needs more.

>>578148484It's just basic skinner boxers, anon.Animals have a tendency to enjoy and release dopamine over finding random objects like food in the middle of nowhere, because it taps into a primal instict.Look how spiders and other insects, which primitive may get excitement over waiting until a random prey enters their field of action.Squirrels love to find food to store it for winter.Crows love to find shit like coins to exhange it for food.Videogame motivation boils down to I found this shit, I collected all the gold, I killed this monster, I hunted for food, I discovered this new far away land with honey and milk, I captured this enemy waifu and made her my wife, I had sex with a teenager, I went to war and got glory, I won a competition, I ate food, I survived a danger, I solved a puzzle, I got told an amazing story.
>>578148484indie game development meta has progressed to just approximating the stimuli for games because failed hacks are desperate for "success"

>>578151935Nowhere. I'll tell you the secret, be thankful for it: you make a shitty mspaint drawing of some rocks with very basic highlights and shadows @ 128X128, go into photoshop and apply a noise filter to it. Then in unity, force downscale it to 64X64 which blurs the shit out of it and makes it look like an N64 texture. Pic related, I just made this in under a minute for you. Couldn't be bothered to make it repeatable but you get the idea anyway.
It's way too hot today, hence the iced green tea instead of coffee.71 days left. I worked for 5 hours yesterday but I didn't achieve anything. The entire 5 hours I was only thinking about how to implement some system. Years ago I'd have just tried something, did it sloppily and then decided it's good enough or, if not, tried something else. Now I want to have a solid plan before I touch anything. Which is fine if you're building something for a nuclear power plant but the entirely wrong approach when running out of time making a last ditch game. I'll be more action oriented today and just do the fucking thing no matter if it's shitty.

Newfren here, how do I solve the "art" problem?I can code, I can produce music, I can even imagine a story/narrative and write it out to some (amateurish) degree, but I can't for the life of me draw or model/sculpt/paint.I do have some basic familiarity with 3D software thanks to an interest I had many years ago, but I never produced anything myself with it, mostly just importing and posing existing models.Feels like the inability to produce art is going to be the one thing that gatekeeps me from producing anything.
>>578159524art is important thats all I can say to thisyou either find someone to collab with or hire an artfag if you dont want to learn it yourself
>>578159524technical skill of art isn't as important as consistency and coherencyif you want to be serious about art, start here,https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f312sDwg770&list=PLqR-aNpyEIVd91GCwsyOS3oRn6eoRhyio&index=1
>>578159524You learn or you pay. Pixel art still exists in gaming purely because it can be learned to a serviceable level in a day or two.
>>578159524What kind of games do you want to make? You could just buy an asset pack.

Might have to look into it though.
>>578160141>2D or 3Di went 2d with my top-down roguelite, go 3D, it saves a lot of time in the end. with 2d you have to hand animate everything save for spine, with 3d you just model everything once
>>578160141>Isometric turn-based CRPG, likely with a fixed camera angle. Still debating whether to use 2D or 3D, I personally want to do 3D but that could end up being too much work so I might be forced to scale back, not too sure yet.Honestly It'll probably be easier to do it in 3D but with 2d sprites. Faking 3D for isometric games is a pain in the ass and not worth it.

"Humans seem to derive satisfaction from agency, not necessarily from difficulty.If I grow a tomato, I may enjoy it because I participated in its creation.If I spend six hours every day hauling water, I don't necessarily gain six hours of additional meaning."
Fuck I would get so much deving done if I consistently got 8 hours a day. I'm trying to increase my effective work hours but it's a real struggle. Right now it's a good day if I get 4 hours done. Every day it's a challenge to get started.
>>578162436We know this already. It's why job simulators are popular. Remember, all of your game dev ideas should be leveraging the terrible economy and it's psychological effects on consumers in order to maximise purchases.

>>578165664Depends what kind and to what extent.I use "Managers" with specific domains, but i don't do any of the OOP stuff. Sometimes, you just want to pass a giant context around
>>578166320The reason I made that post is because AI keeps gaslighting me into code purity, when the simplest solution, least overengineered solution is usually the best one for a procedural code base.
>>578165664no the final redpill is that classes are bad and you put everything in one big data driven struct that is loaded from disk
>>578166462>AIYeah, you're basically fighting a redditor who will insist on all the Good Practices™.
>>578166556where do the functions live? inside the struct?
>no the final redpill is that classes are bad and you put everything in one big data driven struct that is loaded from disk
>>578166698functions live in read only memory for the most part
>>578167051i mean in your code
>>578166698you define structs in relevant modules with relevant functions that take the structs.Coupling member functions is a meme
>>578166320>Sometimes, you just want to pass a giant context aroundIn my current game I have some context objects/structs that I can fill up as needed for whatever context they're being used in. It's quite nice when you want to pass around a bunch of stuff but don't wanna pass everything and don't necessarily need everything.
>>578167091no functions aren't loaded from diskmost languages don't support that anyway

i think the school system ruined us. it trained us that we have to eternally learn before even starting. i don't think it's easy to undo this conditioning.but i understand why. teacher leeches need customers so its profitable to convince everybody to need education forever.even now that ai can teach you anything they insist that they are needed and that they need high salary and high pensions.that's why governments are so evil, they can create their own jobs and force them onto people.

with the GTA leeks, i wonder if open-world games are gonna take a fatigue hit in general
>>578170609It must be a lot. Everything was shit.But then again, a lot of shit does sell on steam.
>>578170776the people who will buygta 6 dont play indie games
>>578170948yeah, but i just wonder if an industry-wide ripple effect will happen, probably not though.
>>578170776open world games have been a dying breed for years they are just too expensive to make and the studios that made them are either on fire or release 2 games a decade if you are lucky, anyone mad enough to try and make it into the market as a new studio is doomed to fail before they even release the game.
>>578171405it *was* too expensive, with AI you can generate plethora of terrain & quest & dialogue slop, open world games will make a big comeback at a previously unseen scale

What's the point of having hit games, if you end up broke for your next project?
>>578175443His team is 3 people, so I imagine he contributed quite a bit. And if you watch his Thomas Brush interview, he shows off the code of Thronefall and actually understands it so it's not like he's just an art guy or whatever. 4th game was Superflight. Sold like half a million copies. He and his team have their finger on the pulse.
>>578176223the journey :)
>>578175940I remember it being 500k, but I don't follow him too closely so your number might be right.Either way, he needs to make millions for it to have been all worthwhile.

What if videogames aren't just mere basic entertainment, but are the manifestation of the path to mastery, where an avatar of a young heroe, has to overcome manifestations of demons, which are physical manifestations in a fantasy world of human sin and vices, and the goal is to survive acquiring the means of production of your own destiny, towards the end of the world, where the heroe meets his final archetypical nemesis, after falling in his role of protector to his own family/tribe under the belly of the biblical whale, only to become a gnosis carrier, which allows him to meet the moon goddess queen, which will eventually carry his offspring, to ensure his legacy of saving his nation, throught spiritual war begins?Every action of a videogame boils down to acquiring resources, land, money, which unlock job skills, to eventually marry a young fertle nubile princess to marry and create a family.
where did i go wrong?
>monitoring the thread patiently until that one guy posts more of his game so I can get more of his ideasnothing personnel...

>>578178997This is fine. Slap a texture on him and go make history . Wait! knees. He needs knees.
>>578173463>is there actually a single "guru" that actually knows what makes a good game?noit is all a grift

>>578174485Set goals that you can achieve. When you set goals that are out of reach you just make yourself feel bad for not reaching them.
>>578179892you're making incremental slop, don't speak of the divine
>>578179480I don't think there's one that explores a jungian christian framework like I explain.But games like yume nikki, explore freudian ideas.Also FFVI explores christian themes.

>>578181897Yeah. If people don't like it you can change it later. One mini game isn't gonna sink the game.
>>578177125those animations are surprisingly decentthe style is very sloppy thoughfirst person sword looks like shit as tends to be the case with AI genned first person sprites
>>578182429just nitpicking at this point
>>578182494it's the sort of sloppy style that is recognizable as slop so normies will complain about itanimations look good for AI but not good compared to real artfirst person sword does not look passable whatsoeverthat's like an afternoon of vibecoding and who knows how many hours of rerolling the art to get those resultscall me when he has a full game
>>578183124not the right attitude if you truly desire to make it
>>578183317I don't think that has what is required to make it in current yearit's "cool" like "look at how far AI has come" but it's not cool like that's a cool game I'd want to play

>>578183527it really be humorous reading your posts a year from now

>>578185362yes, but the core idea is shared between them.Stephen king would still make a movie or a game better than most artist, because he understands the point of storytelling.
>>578183645I'm looking forward to it
>>578185028what do you like then?
>>578186448That's my point, it's unfair to compare gamedevs making stuff from scratch to movie makers starting from the solid basis of a book from a renowned author.It's like making a mod of a AAA game
>>578178997it's not that far from everquest models but remember eq models were hard carried by the textures
>>578187096but stephen king is closer to agdg than a movie director in a big studio.
>>578187198trvke, his books are glorified slop
>>578187264AAA is slop too so the point stands
>>578183990Normcattle also hate AI when they can tell it's AI.
>>578186448>Stephen king would still make a movie or a game better than most artist,King directed one of his books into a movie and it was a disaster, even he admitted it was shit. (Granted he was on coke the whole time)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_Overdrive
>>578187198He is not an independent self-published author. He publishes his books through major traditional publishing houses, primarily Scribner and Hodder & Stoughton
>>578178997>>578187153I mean look at this can you texture on this level? if not you should make a higher poly model
>Im the animator/marketer/ideasguy>coder does the rest>Im ahead of schedulewat do I do now?
>>578187998>modelhow many wishlists per day and so far?
>>578187615>>578187571>>578187264my initial point was that imitation of movies, is a failed path to videogames.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yezmNCQk_S4Videogames will never trully become a real medium if they're limited to being just a second rate medium for failed writers and directors.When will a videogame trully capture the feeling of hope and despair of something like Hotel Rwanda.
>>578187982god that looks good i'd have sex with you for models like that
>>578188368>When will a videogame trully capture the feeling of hope and despair of something like Hotel Rwanda.it already has but you barely play video games, let alone finish them.
>>578188368that's why failed devs like memeamoto are making mario galaxy movies now
>>578188323were not at that stage yet. we need 3 playable levels first, then we can promote it
>>578188468sure, maybe pathologic.I do think pathologic capture what is despair better than a lot of movies.
>>578188368I would argue player interaction can elevate the emotional impact of a story. Mother 3 for example would be tragic as a movie but it hits that much harder because you, the player, are doing the final battle against your brother
>>578188790WOAHHAA?!? final boss.... against a FAMILEE MEMEBERR? my emotionnns!!!
>>578188392it's from everquest and I wouldn't have sex with you unless you paid me serious money
>>578188880But when The Shining did it, people want to pretend Kubrick is an otherworldly genius because he did basic blocking
>>578188917so you can't even model then? hahahaah and you're trying to insult me as a coward? fucking freak look i was joking around but look man you gotta calm it down with you're bullying of me because you're just a nodev fucking coward scum fucking idiot? so kill yourslelf
>>578188368Trying to make games tell stories like movies and books do is a very limited view of what video games are. It is a part of it but only a part.
>>578188880You've probably never played the game, it's not quite as generic as that.
>>578189336its fucking funny you say that because I did way back when it came out and it was extremely underwhelmingyou guys just have bad taste like most indie devs
>>578186995For first person, fully 3D graphics. For third person I'm okay with mixing 2D and 3D to some extent, though I still prefer pure 2D or pure 3D.
>>578189202I can model I was simply sharing what I had learned in the hopes that anon could maybe avoid some of the mistakes I made I can't texture as well as everquest artists did so I leaned on somewhat higher polygons to use the shapes of the model instead of fully relying on textures to define the shape
>>578175054already back to 6.0, fucking hell
>>578189248yes, but why games can't tell stories using the symbolism of their mechanics.
>>578189516What is your favorite game? What game are you making?
>>578189747>poonity
You can't make video games if you live a boring life of isolation. This is just a fact. In order to make games, you need to have friends and hobbies that inspire your creativity. Nobody has ever made a good game while being a NEET.
>>578189971Saint Zukowski says you just need to read the market and do what other people have done.
>>578190058This. Burn away any sense of individuality and just do what everyone else is doing (but worse).
>>578189971Someone has to be the first person to do it, and that person will be me.
>>578189971TRVKE>>578190058You can't just make the exact same game. It should be similar to what's popular, but better in some way. Gamers don't want "again". They want "more".

>>578191498I'd buy this if it was for sale at a cheap price.
The real redpill is to make games that give answers to the eternal questions and struggles of humans.why are we here.why do we suffer.does god even listen our prayers.what is evil.what is the path to virtue.
>>578191374Anything to help you cope with your inevitable failure.
i prefer most indie devs not share their super special existentialist drivel because they're rarely well read or thoughtful
>>578191940Editor's note: This only works if you're not retarded and your answers to these questions are legitimate and relatable
>>578187982i|ll just use ai to make the textures
>>578054134I'm surprised it's so cheap, I figured Brush would be charging at least $25USD for it.I'm actually not sure if he's going to make his money back. We'll have to wait till the end of sunday to see if sales pick up for the weekend. But if he only manages to pick up an additional 200 reviews between now and then, his game statistically won't make back the 700k he put into it.
>he doesn't have a chinese release
>>578052921nortubel stop retweeting porn and finish your game
>>578193004>I'm actually not sure if he's going to make his money back.how much did it cost to make
>>578193004>>578193127how do you guys spend all this time tracking this shit holy fuck, are you getting paid for this?
>>578193004>>578193127nevermind I just read the rest of your post
>>578193191it's masculine behavior. men compare themselves to other men because they understand they're in competition with them
>>578193362what does that have to do with some youtuber that struggles to pay his bills
well I did my best and it wasn't good enoughmy first game did much better but it's not enough to save me. back to the wage cage I go
>>578193127Apparently Brush said he put 700k into it a few months ago in an interview>>578193191It's just simple steam math. 1 review = aprox 30 sales. He needs to break 1,200 reviews his first week in order to be in profit after the first years of sales (which will be an estimated 110,000 sales after the first year, or 1.65 million dollars gross. After Steam cut and taxes, he'll be left with around $700k). Also that's NOT even factoring in discounts and returns. It'll likely be another entire year after the first year, that he'll finally end up in profit.

Look guys! It is a tamarillo!
>>578193874doesn't he have a publisher as well? don't they take a cut?
>>578194016what kind of game will you make about this plant?
>>578192913post results
>>578194016Never heard of that. It's crazy how many edible fruit have near 0 global media presence.
>>578193191they don't make games so they got all the time in the world
>>578194162if you cared that much you'd have already tried it for yourself - alas
>>578193004He couldn't justify pricing it much higher because it's too short. Bioshock Infinite is on sale right now for $7.49, and it's 3-4x longer. No way the sales are going to pick up in any real way at the current price. The game's not even on front page Popular New Releases anymore (#18 right now).>It seems that a large portion of this game's owners come from an unconfirmed source. This can be the result of giveaways, bundles or legitimate purchases.Most of people who played thus far came from keys, which probably hurt his standings with the Steam algorithm.

>>578194409I don't have any AI texturing stuff set up so it would be too much effort on my part when I'm not convinced that it can do a good enough job if AI is so good then you can convince me by posting your results
>>578193004does it even matter if he makes his money back? he already spent the money so whatever he earns he'll have it on top of his courses grift and Youtube
>>578059323>Making pokemon but not shitdigimon?
>>578189971almost every iconic game series comes from devs copying movies they liked
>>578195236NTA, but AFAIK, this is still the best tool for complex "hero asset" texturing. https://stableprojectorz.com/
>>578063003this is some undertale color palette i almost thought this was undertale in 3d
how do I just start placing shit down in unreal engine and skip watching any basedboy scrimblo tutorials

>>578152284clown girls in vidya?
>>578195693I haven't tried them myself because I wasn't convinced by the videos I saw but I knew about that one and it didn't seem very goodthere's also modddif which has a shitty free tier where they use the stuff you upload to train their AI and also the result is posted publicly on their website so you can't use it on anything real unless you pay then there's stablegen which I have not tried but looks like it could be alright I might have to give it a goand I think there's some comfyui based stuff but honestly I don't know much about thoseand of course most of these 3d generation websites also provide texture generation

My game is about psychological profiles from social media content, any tips!.
>>578092890do i need autism to make games for autists?
>>578199525what is the game of the game?
>>578199634No, you just need to make a gameplay system or story so convoluted that only someone with autism would bother trying to understand it.
>>578199634No.>t. autist
>>578199886>you just need to make a gameplay system or story so convoluted that only someone with autism would bother trying to understand it.i still take this as a yes
>>578199775I don't think I've decided yet
>>578094376whats the plan here?
time to prompt the chicuelas naked waifus sprites.
>>578094606the main theme should be the last thing you compose you need music experience and do a bunch of other songs first
>>578131082>Why is it set in Americaits based on lovecraft
>>578191701yanderedev tier
>>578200561Almost no game composer plays the game before they make the music. They usually don't even see the game but instead get key art and concept art.

>>578171519nortubel...
>>578170776only because every fucking open world game has the same map type except gravity rush
>>578175683this looks like a worse bioshock infinite
New friendly drone model, base concept art done by agdg fren. The flapping is completely fucked due to framerate but it looks okay in game, trust.
>>578202603RIP my nigga

>>578203692I can't listen to cris music for more than 12 seconds without laughing
>>578207313It is good.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8bKJFqpqMY>mfw cris music is actually good
>>578207630ok that's actually not bad at all
>>578207630>>578207779if you can't whistle the melody after hearing it 2 times, it's not good
>>578208368it is good how cris is using the locrian here because it contrasts with the stable bright chords
>>578207630how long has cris practiced music?
>>578207313yeah it holds up pretty well i would say, even today, thanks to the simple turn-based gameplay, heavily stylized graphics and good sound design and music
what are the odds that I can get my Steamworks application and store page approved before the end of the month so that I can apply for next fest before the deadline?
>>578063430is the character design assymetric?
>>578210145since before there were stars

Do you guys make a new steam account to publish your game under? I've had my account for like 20 years now, so its got a lot of baggage that might come back to haunt me
>>578216325I didn't need to because I have self control and never played any multiplayer competitive games through Steam.
>>578216325Yeah, I made a new email account and a new Steam account with that email account.
>>578093930this is more like an underground theme
>>578214782uh oh kisha wont like this
>>578159524use programmer artit worked for minecraft
i think before you make a game you should make a personality test. if you don't have any singleplayer game you played for over 3000 hours, you don't have the commitment it takes to make a game.some people can play the same game for years, they just pick on game and they can play it over and over. they naturally enjoy coming back to the same thing.if that's not you, find another hobby.
>>578216325yes you should make an account exclusively to publish
>>578159524Use AI, as long as its not obnoxiously generic slop people will accept it
>>578104080>>578113165>Bio-Curse XereonListened to the music for the last 30 minutes, still not tired of it.
