>>578687241Are you pidor?
>>578686902how does crazy games compare to itch.io?
>>578687383I was just wondering because the weekly reset set my reset time to X and your time is roughly X + Y and that puts you in the russian timezone.
>>578674971mine just got approved after 7 days of waiting not bad
>>578687639>the weekly reseterr, I mean the free reset.
>>578676164It's like people who make these games are competing in whoever can make the least appealing and the least cool game possible. Some threads ago someone was posting a video of a guy who spent years of his life making a videogame about some retarded birds jumping on blocks or some shit. This is pretty much "coworker indie game dev" projects.
How would you theme an invoker type character where you have different spells you can cast based on the component abilities you cast before hand?I want to include one but Nine and Invoker already exist so I think having another wizard in the archetype would be overdone.I think the hunting horn is a neat implementation of the idea and I've also considered theming it around cooking with the components being ingredients.
sigh... time to code some state machines
>>578688632you can just steal invoker's mechanics for your game exactly as it is, it's not a crime and valve won't sue you for that
what song did i accidentally rip off here? it just came to me but I have no idea where it is fromhttps://vocaroo.com/1cEfmAn5okWo
I'm not going to make it in time. It's over.
>>578688958I'm going to I just want them to have a different theme because I think it would be boring to make another Wizard with that gimmick.
>>578689234It sounds extremely familiar...
>>578689542your game is not set in the same universe as those games
>>578689542a bard is the most obvious answer. you can also steal guitar from warframe and how it works. I think keys locked to a minor pentatonic scale so even if you just mash keys it sounds alright
>>578689747>>578689234it's every single 80s-90s game
Would making and posting fanart of lolis under my Twitter dev account be a good way to gain attention from a certain audience and thereby help my game get more exposure?
>>578689234sounds like a scuffed version of FF8 - The Landing
>>578690109Yeah probably

>>578673429i ate this sauce and it turned me gay
>>578691232It might pass if you make it more accurate to the real character. I looked her up and her midriff doesn't hang out, she's also flat as a board with no visible boobs outlines. I think twitter chicks will detect you're a weirdo and get offended, especially if all your art focuses on underage girls with tweaks to make them more sexual looking.
Games for this feel?
>>578691754nice touch that everyone at church is brown and that jeet has shit in his hair
>>578691665Okay...

Can someone recommend an audio plugin for using .sf2 files in a DAW? I use Logic Pro on Mac.
>>578691989Bocchiposter was a pedophile all along
Progress on the main character. His hair doesn't seem to be shading very well. This is on Unity 6.5 URP 17.5. My todo list is currently>improve the hair shading>finish the texture for his arms/hands>finish the textures and models for his gunsI've already rigged him so once that list is done I'll start animating him. I'll post 1 or 2 more pictures of him.
>>578692993His brow bone is nuts.
>>578693162such is life of zoomer chad
>>578690109>from a certain audience
>>578692993Here are his different armor levels.

>>578694426is he CIA?
>>578692993>>578694426Last picture for now. Here is his current rig, based on the tutorial series by CG Dive. The different armor levels have a few unique bones for their own straps, buckles, etc.
>>578690109maybe you should use that effort to finish your game instead
>>578694320
>>578694775He has no training, his gear is scavenged. His clothing/armor design is mainly inspired by COD Modern Warfare operators and Louis from L4D.
>>578694517I was an adult(11 years old) when kingdom hearts came out. it looked like it was for little kids.

adding a pomni hat to my game
when i was little i really liked this gamehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chantelise_%E2%80%93_A_Tale_of_Two_Sistersbecause i wanted to be a weeb but i was a normie. so kannas game reminds me of it and it's kinda cool. i hope kanna plays it or looks at it.
>>578698245a jester hat? what is your game about?
>>578698247I played Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons. I'm a weeb but only into manly weeb stuff like giant robots and dragonball
>>578698398it's a club penguin like game but I want to add a bunch of questing and stuff to make it like an rpg

is a metroidvania better than a classic 2d platformer?
>>578701528For marketing, yes. for making? good fucking luck. competent solo metroidvanias longer than steams refund window take 5+ years to make solo.

>>578701528>>578702605it's kinda sad that *vanias killed 2d platformer innovation desu.
2d platformer was a genre born strictly from the limitations of old technologies. You simply couldn't make anything more complex and calculation-heavy. Jumping from one platform to another is just too boring. All popular "platformer" games today are only 10% platformers and 90% something else
>>578705149>Jumping from one platform to another is just too boring.
All Elves should be small and flat chested and barefoot
platforming is not a genre its an activity
>>578705660Whatever you say Black Silvia.
stealth is not a genre it's an activity
>>578706801yes stealth is not a genre, it's a mechanic. what would you do in a "stealth" game? just sit behind something and nothing else?
>>578706801
The BLACKING will continue
>>578705660wrong!!!!

200 dollars down the drain and claude can't even add a hat in 2 hours you guys should've just told me not to use ai last thread because wtf do you mean I only get 2 hours before being session limited for the day and claude can't fix a simple sprite issue after I bought the subscription

This nigger really spent $200 on an AI
I won.
>>578708998I've seen people in /agdg/ spend more on worse.
>>578708949The AIspammer did more damage than I thought.
>>578708809>he fell for the claude meme Everyone is using chatgpt/codex on the $100/month subscription. If you fuck up, just wait a week and try again.
>>578709160I recall one particularly infamous example.
>>578708809I can't imagine being this much of a fucking brainlet, perhaps there's hope afterall if this is the competition
This is pretty fun seeing your stuff work. Long way to go.
>>578709414Was it a particular 4chan ad?
>>578708809I use AI for multiple projects including my actual job. First of all, AI is unironically retarded. Claude Opus, specifically, has negative IQ. But you seem to be retarded as well.1. Don't talk to it like it's a human, talk to it like what it is - a machine. You have to be as precise as possible. Abstractions or "between-the-lines" logic confuses it. You need to specify every step for it: what sprite, where it is, how to search for a problem, what is the framework for solving the problem. AI is basically an idiot savant - it can calculate inverse kinematics on the fly but cannot understand basic human logic. 2. AI still pretty bad at comprehending images. Do not rely on it.3. Claude is super jew and they like to milk money. Claude specifically really likes to talk and generate fucking books of text. You can limit it in your settings there are general instructions. You can find some templates online.4. For anything to get done you actually have to understand what you are doing. If you don't then use it first as enhanced google and ask to research for common solutions then explain it to you.5. If you only need help with code I would use ChatGPT Sol because it doesn't use tokens the same way Claude does. You'll have more things done, but again, only if you actually know what you are doing.
>>578709991Yes, lol.
>>578688590I am somewhat amazed of these sorts of dudes who pick a project with zero thought and just make it and ship it no matter how long it takes. It's like they never stopped to consider what is it that they are making or why would anyone want to play it.
>>578673429Whats a good dialog system to use?
>>578710361Other fascinating thing is that the guy spent 4 years on flavor of the month game. Reminds me of when Valve released a card game years after Hearthstone already died. Unless the chicken grappling hook "getting over it" clone is his dream passion project
>>578692651no surprises there
>what retarded black gorilla nigger made this gamewhy would he say that?
>>578711245>>what retarded black gorilla nigger made this game>why would he say that?
>>578708998I ended up refunding it, so it's not a major loss to me. I can't code for shit though so I'm abandoning my game
>>578710891>Unless the chicken grappling hook "getting over it" clone is his dream passion projectAin't no way. He probably saw it as something easy to make but then got sunk-costed into finishing it like a retard.
>>578711406
>>578698245>>578698686>>578711406from a new hat to a full project cancellation in roughly 3 hours, what a journey

>>578711594stop being mean or I will punish

or you could just take a day to learn basic skills and not be reliant on a $100 sub you then have to waste even more time reasoning with lmao

>>578703850Thank you for this image I needed this... Brother I forgot... It has been so long since I last witnessed the bain post the flame faded my eyes sealed... The memories we made lost.... It returns to me the fire I once saw... Thank you brother for being a big guy...
>>578708809Woah, does it really cost $200 for just "1 days" worth of usage!? >>578711406Talk about avoiding sunk cost fallacy fast. I mean is this really a bad outcome if the alternative timeline is anon working on this game for 5 years, releasing it, getting 0 sales and 0 plays?
>>578712225AAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAH
Added the implementation of the first boss - thank you to the anon who recommended lowering the damage and upping the attack speed, it feels a lot better
>>578713454At the peak of my addiction I was spending upwards of 700 per day.
>>578712282Took a little bit to make sure I didn't miss anything, but now I just need to make sure I attach the script to it properly
I just treat Claude with respect and she gives me what I want.
>>578714273Man the fuck up. Grab Claude by the pussy.
Game design is the hardest part of game development.
>>578714515No its the easiest by far
>>578713956the attack speed and damage both should come from upgrades if you're doing incremental
>>578714891Nice.
>>578714515Literally the easiest. If I had a petite asian code slave boy then I could make a $10 million game.
>>578711621
>>578714515Art is harder.
>>578714870>>578715065You wouldn't know because you do not need to engage with game design to make [existing game, but worse].
>>578714891how do you make textures for your tiles? I just can't picture random textures in my head and my tiles suck ass
>>578698686>Making a MMO>can't code btw
>>578706801Which is why you add the ability to kill and hide enemies with other enemies realizing one or more are gone.
>>578715719Many such cases in /agdg/
>>578705149just add a grappling hook and your platformer is modern. mega turrican had one but it was way too slow.
>>578711406Why not use that $200 and take two semesters of CS courses at a community college or buy some programming books?
You should learn to code friend. Look, this only took me like 3 hours of on and off learning, and that was only because my stupid ass turned my built clock into a blank screen. You got this in the bag. Now if you'll excuse me, it's time to work on my dream game in 10 or so years
>>578708809"claude, build me a tool that lets me manipulate layered sprites, so I can align a hat sprite for example, rotate/flip, all that jazz"you need to take the tool pill.
>>578714515Have you make a game design document?
>>578708809you will appreciate thishttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/qAKpYujaFC0
>>578716083I have many GDDs in my expansive project graveyard.
Claude make me a perfect game that will net me millions. Make no mistakes.
>>578716281Sure, here is your puzzle platformer with a spear you can throw and then stand on.
>>578714891is paloo a boy or girl?
>>578716281Think John Wick meets Lethal Company as a 4-player extraction co-op. You don’t play the hitman—you play the cleanup crew. A high-profile mob hit goes down in a five-star hotel, and your squad gets dropped in with mops, body bags, and industrial bleach. You have four minutes to dissolve the evidence, stage the corpses, and scrub the marble before the SWAT team breaches.
I'm here building a game with fuckin deepseek v4 flash and bro cannot get claude to work what the fuck
i'm makign a dungeon crawler
There's potential for skipping ahead in my pre-development progress but I will choose to keep the schedule as planned and use the extra time for refining the tools so that the work experience on the game will be extra-pristine.
>>578716715With catgirls?

>>578716514It ate Chris Zukowskis blog before spitting this answer I'm sure of it
replace "drawing" with "game dev"
Ugh I have no idea when my game will be done. I work on one thing and then it ends up requiring more and more things just to make the first thing work right. I want this game to be done asap and not get stuck in development hell. Anyone else feel like they are stuck in development hell? Feels like this game will just never be done.

Also, if you're getting stuck in dev hell now you've not properly designed the game's software and you'll be fighting it for the rest of the project unless your scope is very tight.
>>578719872I don't think it is that. The systems it needs seem simple but then as I implement I need more and more for them to work as desired.>>578720329>>prototype/proof of concept stage feeling like development hell <--- You are hereUgh. I'm not a fast dev so it still looks like it is in the prototype stage despite months of development. The overall idea is already set, it's just slow implementation.

But also, the complete anti-AI brigade are genuinely missing the point that art has now transitioned over to composition rather than technical skill.

I owe 40 hours of work, never to be repaid. Today I'll still be working on the procedural skybox thing. I've never had less faith in this game than now.
>>578724892>I dont see the dev disclosing anywhereIts in the news posts and the steam reviews explicitly say the store page/dev disclosed it. I didn't check more than that because its a shit game>most reviewers dont hate that AI was usedExcept they do because the steam reviews literally say that.Your final point is meaningless if you didnt actually read the steam reviews with the people actively hating it because it uses AI.
>>578723001I know how to make models, environment, animations controls and code but I can't decide what game to make because there's just so many games I can make now. It was so much easier to decide when I could only make one game.

>Show coder friend my game.>He says my main file with just a little over 7000 lines of code is too long and I need to split it up.>Says files should only have 400 lines of code each.What the fuck? I am genuinely baffled, sure there is stuff in the main file I could spread out, but I don't see the point when you can just search things fine in visual studio.Am I just retarded?
>>578735494it's just script unc cope don't worry about it
>>578735494We are all retarded in our own special way.
>>578735494Just do whatever works for you. Personally largest file has 800 lines and my main has like 50
>>578735494You enter 2 libraries. The first library contains a single book with all the information in, you can only ever find this book in the library and therefore have immediate access to all the data but its terse to read. The second library has many books split by topic, you can find the relevant information by going down the aisle with the correct topic. Which would you prefer to go into if you were looking for information?Also, 7k lines of code in a single file isn't bad if that is the entirety of your game, its bad practice but the project is small enough it doesnt matter. If you think you're going to double or triple that amount of code then you definitely should be refactoring that.

>>578735494As a general rule of thumb, I'd say if you have 4 or more variables and very heavy logic attached to a single domain, it's safe to refactor it.If you have>Actor.csthat moves, you can refactor everything related to movement inside>ActorMovement.cswhich Actor.cs has a reference to.Now, if you have an AI script that tries to tell your actor to move somewhere, you can call it from inside Actor.cs, and Actor.cs daisy-chains another function call inside ActorMovement.cs.

Started rigging my character.I have a couple of questions:For lowpoly characters the deforming shows a lot of bad choices by blender when it comes to quads. Do you triangulate everything beforehand or maybe just certain areas, like thighs and ass?Are 2 chain hands, having Index finger, thumb, but the rest are fused like a glove, retarded? What games actually use that?Do I need a root bone?What control bones are a must have? All I have so far are heels, following the tutorial, but I think I need some way for the character's upperbody to track where you aim
Modeling is fucking stupid, why can't AI just give me 3d models? I don't want to pay $3 for a fucking car.

>>578740289look at these faggots>>578736730>>578737159
Putting all your code in one file makes it faster actually.
>>578740018I just make more cuts in areas that deform, you don't need that many more, just enough to make things bend nicely. Gamers aren't going to notice something like a knee being a little smoother looking and it's not going to make your model look less low poly.Do hands however you want.Typically yes, is there some reason you're avoiding it?My rigs are really simple but I only have control bones on the wrists and ankles for bipedal models that are human-like, you can do more or less if you want though.

In the past, most two-player modes required taking turns due to console limitations. Super Mario Bros. is one example of this: the player controlling Luigi had to wait for the first player to finish their turn. Do you think this type of multiplayer mode could be revived in an interesting way? For example, one player could activate mechanisms that would make the next player's level easier or harder.
the inevitable reality of having to parse stats from a spreadsheetfuck me. I DON'T want to make a data game. but separate weapons neet weapon stats and upgrades and enemies need loot tables. gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay
>>578735494If you break that script into smaller parts those objects can be re-used elsewhere much more cheaply than making a bunch of instances of your monolith that does everything. Probably not super relevant for an indie game but for stuff like concurrency (multiplayer or multi-threading) or if you have to do a ton of operations per second that adds up.Also I find it easier to debug and add new features if I don't have to scroll through a 3K line long script to find one function. It's pretty easy to end up repeating yourself multiple times or forget to delete deprecated code if the file sizes are huge too.
>>578743184Stats are fun :)
>added direct damage to opponent by dice collision in an earlier build to encourage players to be aggressive>see some 2D jiggle physics meme on twitter and think how funny it would be to allow players to bounce dice off the opponent to see their tits bounce>"wait, why don't I change the damage source from player/opponent dice colliding together to dice colliding with the 2D enemy portrait?"Now throwing your dice at the opponent's face is part of the game.
>>578742817That's an interesting idea for a friendslop game actually.Everyone's goal is to complete the level, but you only get points if you individually are the one to complete it. So you have this game theory calculus going on in your head about whether you should make progress or not because the level might get harder and you'll lose and someone else will capitalize on your progress after, or if you're confident you could beat the level you go for it.In a way it combines friendslop and gambling which are the two biggest genres right now.
>>578735494Everything's allowed in a solo project.
>>578744167I took that approach with my first two games but you have to remember that you in the future might as well be a different person than you now, and you need to be able to read and understand your code 6 months or a year from now when it's not fresh in your head.I didn't do any testing or logging and didn't adhere to any kind of standards or systems when writing code because that felt like "corporate bloat" and that bit me in the ass several times when I launched the game with some bugs and had to revisit code I wrote almost a year ago to fix them.
>>578711621>>578711951>>578715434>>578711406>>578711594>Recognizes idea is flawed early on>Exits early to avoid sunken cost fallacy and wasting 3 years of his life on horse shit that would have flopped hardAnon is unironically smarter than the majority of devs here.

>AI make me 3d modular environment pieces>OH RIGHT YOU CAN'T
>Be programmer for a living and an artist as a hobby>Make mods and ROM hacks for years>Getting into actual proper game dev>Have autism for genres that flop (linear platformers and shmups)>Don't care for genres that sell (metroidvanias, incrementals, bullet heavens, roguelikes)How do I keep morale up? I'm not in it for the money, but I can't really justify the time and effort it takes to, for example, make movement in a platform game feel good and design good levels, when I could just vibe code some number go up game that would get 100x more attention.
>Game needs me to build a tank model that is modular so I can equip different turrets to it or attach drone launchers to it.>Dogshit at modeling.It truly is the worst part of game dev.
>>578748163just make software, drop video games
>>578748120>(linear platformers and shmups)Both are trivial to vibe code.
>>578748310vibe coding is one thing, but what about vibe environment modelling?
>>578748120just bee urself
>>578748484Yeah it's all just math extrapolated out into playable space.
>just vibe my game up famalam
>>578748120The popular genres are so oversaturated that it might even be harder to make a successful game in those genres due to the sheer amount of noise.Linear platformer and shmup fans have been playing the same games for years and would probably love something new to play (if it's actually good). Think of how popular Pizza Tower was since nobody was really making platformers like that.

Great thing about Norway is that you can see exactly how much everyone makes. Here's the public records for Keep on Mining dev. He made 900k USD last year, and then took out a salary of 200k USD.
I want to implement some games. What are some turn-based 2-4 player games? There's some classic options, of course, like: various Playing Card games, Chess, Checkers, Go, Nine/Twelve men's morris, Nard, etc.Fun ones are: Battleships, Uno, Monopoly, "Sorry!", Candy Land, some variant of Connect Four.Any more?
Situation is grimOutlook is bleakMorale is lowEnergy is depletedAllies have left meBut I must press on
>>578753441Ludo?
>>578753308What kind of company type has he registered that he keeps 700k as company's assets? Why would you not file for sole proprietorship instead when being a solo indie dev? Less taxes, less paperwork, less accounting etc.
>>578753441The first game I ever programmed was an implementation of Backgammon in Python for a school project, and that's what got me hooked on game dev as opposed to regular software dev. Backgammon is surprisingly interesting due to the randomness and making an AI that plays effectively was a fun challenge as well.After the final project we had all of our Backgammon AIs play against each other in a tournament and mine came in second to someone who trained his with ML (which the professor had explicitly banned, he was just a jeet who really wanted to win).
>>578753441You already have a list that should keep you occupied for weeks, just get to it.
>>578753441If you're not doing a project that requires all of those, doing all of them is a waste. you stop learning new skills(MP, turn based, logic) after 2 of those. learning should be guided. genius guitarists don't keep practicing the same 1 song after mastering it.
>>578753742Registered as a Norwegian LLC. With that amount, he would automatically pay 50% tax with a sole proprietorship. With an LLC, he only pays a lower corporate tax and taxes on wages taken out
>>578754137But that money is still stuck in a vacuum until he pays out his wage, and when he does, he will then still be taxed unless he figured out some shenenigans where he can spend the LLC's money on private expenses and write it off as a business expense instead.
>>578753441>>578754074What might be more fun and teach you more is taking one of those games and seeing what mechanics you could add on to it. That's already a whole genre of game like Balatro or the Scrabble game that used to get posted here.

>>578673429godot uses jolt now albeit
>>578754239I'm not sure but a few things I could think of. He can afford to pay the same salary next few years even without a new game. It is possible that he gets taxed less like that. It is also possible that he is planning to use that money to develop more games.

>>578758878>>forced to make 3 shovelware games instead of my dream game
>>578758878I would love to slop it up with some shovelware but I'm currently married to my dreamgame. The grass is always greener on the other side.Either way you gotta admit, making videogames is a good life. There are much worse things.

>>578760237No,i'd tell him to fix the breasts and pelvis. But sloppers don't care about details, so i don't bother critiquing

>if I start an independent game studio as a solo developer>with 0 budget>and make no money>I could still be considered self-employed and lose my unemployment benefits>they decide it based on "work hours" instead of income from the activityThere's a 4 month grace period where they estimate if it counts as a full-time business or not but legally that 4 months starts from the time I start to design or plan a game for commercial release. It doesn't matter that the game doesn't exist and there are no profits. Fuck this retarded country. To release my game without getting fucked in the ass by the government I have to claim that I spend little enough time on the game that it won't be considered a full-time thing. And then I have to hope that the social workers believe it. If they don't believe it then I have to stop developing my game so that I can go back to being unemployed and not die for having no money. If they don't believe it they will actually start looking into my activities to make sure that I am not doing anything. This is so fucking retarded I can't even. It's like this country did everything possible to prevent people from making anything of themselves. They would rather I remain a leech than try to succeed. It was a serious mistake to bring this shit up to my social worker. Now he knows. He has the power to destroy my life.
>>578760360He forgets.
v3 should be focusing on growing their channel, not making more jams and events and leaning on 4chan for it. It's almost like they are trying to squeeze blood from a stone and force the gamedevs on 4chan to give more and more hoping that will grow the channel. That's not how it works. You would think after years of paying for ads and running expos and seeing almost no growth you would realize you've hit your ceiling. They just keep squeezing though.
>>578760986>my social worker
>>578760986we are well overdue for UBI at this point, its getting downright stupid
>>578760921he reminds me the delusional retards in this thread
>>578761197>v3 should be focusing on growing their channelhe's trying to do that by crying on twitter for sympathy lol, but v3 already has had three actual stickies on /v/, that should be enough but no, shits dead still
>>578761197>v3 should be focusing on growing their channel, not making more jams and events and leaning on 4chan for it.It's almost like they do this for fun or something and not to try to grow a YouTube channel. Might just be me though.
>>578761394taking the gambling site contracts for money was just a hobby!
>>578760986Did you start an actual company, registered, like an LLC?
>>578761394lmao cry harder that's such bs xD
>>578761460You do realize it was Betz that peddled around that rumor for a laugh right?
>>578761559>rumor it was literally in the show you samefagging, gaslighting, retarded jew
>>578761203I don't know what else to call the guy. He's the guy who calls me once or twice a year to ask about my job search and sometimes tells me to apply for a bunch of jobs. >>578761329UBI would be so much better than this retardese. I want to make a living from my games but with how things are I basically need to get enough runway for 1-2 years from a release or I'm fucked. >>578761490I haven't started it yet. I don't even need to officially register anything and this could still happen because I went and asked about the damn thing from the guy. What they decide at the unemployment office isn't necessarily tied to what the legal status of the operation is. It's basically>if they think I'm spending my time doing something that counts as self-employment>instead of searching for a job 24/7 >then I'm self-employed in their eyes and do not qualify for unemployment benefits
I guess having 2 red-shaded factions on the battlefield is a bad idea. I may recolor them to generic red/blue colors for the sake of clarity, while keeping a huge variety of faction colors available for the campaign map.
>>578761394premium cope
>>578761197>v3 should be focusing on growing their channel, not making more jams and events From hearing him talk in discord, he has 0 idea of what to do in the off season and wanted something to fill the void between last show and next because he won't be doing the show. Which, to be fair, other expos ride on name recognition to keep momentum in-between their yearly shows. Like you never saw E3 outside of E3 season but you knew it was coming. Maybe jams aren't the way to go, but realistically, there's not much else to do that's not just recycling old content for years on end. Source: v3cord and if you we're in there you'd corroborate what I'm saying.
>>578761460qrd on this?
>>578761394>It's almost like they do this for fun or somethingThe last game jam got 4 games. That's not fun, that's sad.
>>578759928Any defects in the physical structure of my work and designs are intentional wonkiness aimed at celebrating the original artwork of the 1993 game.That is my cope philosophy.

It happened again...
>>578762293I think you underestimate how much of a massive shitposter Betz is.
>>578761893>I don't even need to officially register anything and this could still happenTheoretically. In reality people bend rules all the time. Nobody is going to take your unemployment away, you're just very analytical minded and see how it could possibly happen.
>>578760986>telling anyone you're doing anything before you make money on itNigger what are you doing? You plan the business and get all the websites, then register the company at the point you release. That way you aren't working and there's no paper trail. >time starts from the minute you start to design or plan a game for commercial releaseIt really doesn't but even if it did, if you're on universal credit then all you have to say is you have no income "working" and they'll supplement it. You can always pull the "this is a skill building exercise to make me employable at a later date" line. But if you really want to fuck your social worker over if he attempts to get you off benefits say you had a relapse and can no longer work due to very poor mood and then you're on bennies again.>>578761893Say its skill building or portfolio building to make you more employable. You should seriously just go and get disabled bennies for depression or something.
>>578762212I doodle the posses, manually color balance, and perform matting and background removal. I can at least claim 1% of the production pipeline as my own. You'll be in big trouble when AI can do all of that that for me reliably, I'll really slop up the place.
>>578762293That first incident was not a joke. Betz bullied Osh. Turning it into a kind of inside joke was just a way for them to deal with the awkwardness. There is no joke about someone changing their main character after years because someone got into their head about it. That's just life.
>>578762259when did this happen?
>>578762958the osh stuff is pathetic crybaby shit, there's better stuff to attack betz with
>>578762958trannies will call any interactions bullying these days
>>578762853nta but by all means, clop up all the coom slop you want anon. Nobody is stopping you, your coom sloppa will never be in the same arena as my SOVL games.
>>578762512>a shitposter made osh change his character after being constantly bullied for the same reasonI'm pretty much aware how much of a manipulator he ishe's also a huge faggot that defends himself all the time
>>578761917yeah
>>578763091>>578763138Betz mindbroke Osh into mutilating his main character Sorry if there's some politically incorrect chuddy term you want to use for that. It's bullying. Osh got dominated by some guy who runs a discord full of gamedevs. Betz is an influence seeker and was wielding his power to affect someone's game. A huge achievement for him.
Would you rather1. publish your game for free and have a million people play it?or2. sell your game for $10 and have 5000 people play it? This way you'll get around $30k in pocket for you before income taxes.Let's pretend these are the only two options.
>>578763487The only one mindbroken by betz here is you
faggoon plz go
>>578763564Cool, what does that have to do with any of the points I just made?See it's all just about seeking status, Wanting to have power. Wanting to be acknowledged as affecting people. Bro doesn't even care about videogames.
>>578763489Million people. That translates into guaranteed employment later on if solo-deving fails and potential for monetisation with skins, dlc etc etc. Its genuinely a no brainer.
>>578762193They have to do UBI or something similar if they're planning to replace all the jobs with AI. Else, riots. >>578762514The more I talked to the guy the more it sounded like he's gonna pull the rug from under me if I pursue this path. >>578762810I was intentionally vague and asked about a bunch of what if situations in an attempt to better understand the system. My fault for thinking this system was supposed to be for my benefit. >It really doesn't but even if it did, if you're on universal credit then all you have to say is you have no income "working" and they'll supplement it.We don't have universal credit. What we have necessitates being unemployed and actively searching for a job. Unless you're disabled or whatever. The thing about becoming more employable would only be valid if I release my games for free as that is not a profit seeking activity. I'll quote the official mail he sent me after>If you are planning to start developing a game for profit, it is important to note that business activities can be considered to have started even before the activity has been registered with the Tax Administration. It is not only the registration that is decisive, but also whether the productive or economic activity has actually started. If you start designing, programming or other development work with the aim of publishing and selling the game on, for example, Steam or another commercial service, the activity can be assessed as productive and economic activity. In this case, the unemployment office can assess that business activities have started even if you have not yet registered as an entrepreneur or in the Tax Administration's registers.Running out of space.

>>578763961>building for profitI think what he's trying to tell you is make it "not for profit" and then decide later to switch it over for profit. I'd never talk about this again with him and if it comes up say you lost interest.

We will see how it goes.>You should seriously just go and get disabled bennies for depression or something.Getting the "unable to work" status is a lot harder. It might legit take years of doctor's appointments to get to that point. I could claim depression to get a form of sick leave but then I'd be forever stuck with that on my record and every time I'd go see the doc for something they'd prescribe more anti-depressants. I have seen the medical system destroy someone close to me doing exactly that when anti-depressants weren't the thing they needed.>>578764306>I think what he's trying to tell you is make it "not for profit" and then decide later to switch it over for profit. They might demand I pay back some of the money I received if I do that. I'm not sure on the exact legals of that but student benefits are something they can demand back. Like say you're not actually studying and not getting credits they will make you repay it. If you consider that it would make sense to think that if they decide I was "self-employed" while I was supposed to be "unemployed" then they'd want the money back.
what if gamedev is bad for you and ruins your life? and hobbydev is the only thing that's beneficial, cause it's meant to make you happier not more miserable?
>>578764892That model is already very crude and in bad taste. It does look like something a deranged trailer trash cretin would make. So yeah, retarded.

>>578765457can you stop posting please
>>5787634892, because if you can do that once you can probably do it again and that's a livable income. This is an extremely pointless thing to think about though. Your goal should be to make one game and have a person play it. If you haven't accomplished that yet, you're a filthy nodev.
>>578765457If you try to use Fable for that purpose it will shut you down.

>>578765748ofc it does but what if you work all day and earn almost nothing?
>>578765885>>578765909 I made some money making videogames and it directly improved my life. Sometimes I need to stretch my legs, get out of the house for a minute. I go to the store and buy whatever I want and enjoy it and I pay for it with money I made making videogames. Nobody can ever take this from me, it's my biggest accomplishment in life. It's not a hobby.
>>578764032Holy based. Whip those devvies Jew Pope.
>>578766507Then you failed, which is part of the essential steps towards success. I suppose you can just cope and say it was just for fun, but that's why it's worth putting a game onto the market, because you cross that line and it's not longer just for fun, someone's actual money is going to end up in your bank account because you made a game. You can't return to hobby cope after that.
>>578766570is modding gamedev?
>>578765908You guys are so fucking stupid its incredible
what happened to bro?
IT'S ABUSINESS
>>578766874It's similar and a lot of modding involves doing some aspect of game dev or sometimes all aspects of game dev if the mod is huge.A typical mod usually involves adding new or changed assets or code to the game, not that different from game dev. Just less involved because you aren't making an entire game, you're just changing a small part of it.

>>578767870Just don't be in the chat, don't even be logged in. If anything goes wrong, you will fix it, you don't have to explain it to anybody, everyone expects indie games to be buggy. If it's just a plain bad game, you should hope they say so and be grateful to get that feedback. Nobody knows who you are, you won't be stalked and murdered.

how much does music cost, if i want something like nier or witcher or something like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qo8VOF3hmqE ? basically songs with vocals with folk elements in foreign or fake language? can i get something like 12 songs with 10k?
I'm using Cursor, Bezi and Claude Code. My AI bills are over 200 dollars per month
>>578769871The biggest problem with AI users is you are low key proud of yourselves for saying you're spending money on it. In the vibecoder general in /g/ it's just guys all day talking about how much tokens they are spending and how much money they are blowing. They consider this to be the same thing as being a productive developer.

>>578767993No, just an objective thing really, someone will always be king of the world. Like the sultans who have untold trillions from oil. Nobody is even allowed to know their actual net worth. At least with someone like Elon Musk you know who he is, you know how and what he thinks and his net worth is public.

>>578740520One more question:How does one go about animating a character using weapons? Like cocking a gun, or reloading removing the magazine?
Gamedev is not for everyone.

>>578773623I would watch tutorials on holding objects or guns in Blender. It's similar to how you would attach clothes to a character, you're just attaching it to a bone (hand in this scenario.) The gun would have it's own rig for cocking it, removing the magazine, etc.You would animate the gun and the character together by doing pose mode with both rigs. You can separate the assets later if you want for organization purposes though since Blender files can get too huge if you're trying to build out every single clothing asset, etc. in one file.

>>578775283Yes... If only I had made an account before they closed the gates...
I think the first rule of 1MA gamedev is to make a game that you have the skill set to do it, I don't have dreams of making the next GTA
>>578776248It's a good thing that my target audience is people who buy and enjoy video games and not terminally online mentally ill manchildren who should have but failed to outgrow their childhood hobby.
>>578768806It's over for us, framework snail pacers
>>578776475the chance of success as a 1MA is so low that if you're trying to be realistic, you probably shouldn't be doing it in the first place.as for GTA, you could make GTA 1
>>578776475>make a game that you have the skill set to doAim a little higher than that. Otherwise you will end up making the same kind of games over and over. This causes some devs to burn out and they never recover.
>>578768806How does God contribute to my workflow and do I have to credit him?
>>578714008O_o@grok is this true?
Chicuelas.
the reason a creative drives thinkers and logical people nuts is cause a creative needs no "why".logical'lets always need approval from their brain daddy.
i just had the best idea for an incremental game againi will have to refine it by meditating on the idea
my money issues are solved. let's see if this actually changes how i dev or if it was never an issue in the first place.
>>578780541while you're meditating your rivals are making their moves
>we didn't use AIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFggndxGZk0
for 999999 out of 1000000 games i don't seem to be the target audience. maybe that's the con of niche-deving, you get no more games that have a bit of everything for everyone, so if your niche doesn't get anything you have 0 games to play.
>>578780449it goes much further, like with science and magik
>>578772498Damn this is how I found out, a real one.

>>578780745jeet behavior, which is funny because they meme themselves as to be so spiritual
the devs here are so incompetent, and it's not from lack of experienceif someone doesn't want to play the game without art, the game is not good
the gamedev symbol of aggy daggy
>>578785207
Mmm...bed
>>578784203Wrong.
>>578786240>Wrong.
>>578784203Art is what gets people in the door, you can have good gameplay but if no one tries it, it doesnt matter
How come there's so few UE games that actually have a nice looking UI instead of UE Console slop interface?
I'm the best developer here.
>>578786751You can literally do anything with the UE user interface designer so it's just a case of the people making the AI being gay
>>578787495I'm mostly wondering if it's problematic or something, a lot of AAA games have shit looking interfaces when they could just have their artists make something good looking that would make the game more climatic.
>>578787675I don't think so honestly, I would go more for the artists on staff don't really give a fuck and just want to meet project deadlines with a functional UI so they block out the elements and just add decoration to the elements. If you wanted to make something look good you have to make it a tiny bit less practical, add an animation or graphic, some kind of style, that has to go up the chain to get approved and that requires meetings. So it never really happens and if you try to push it everyone just thinks you are a pain in the ass.
Should I post here if I don't even know what engine to use? I know like 2 lines of python. Should I use Godot? Did Unity fix its evil problem? And HOW should I learn, should I just watch youtube tutorials or figure out what I want to do and learn to do one specific thing at a time?

>>578788520tell gemini to help you learn godot by making pong in an afternoon
>>578788520Your options are Godot or Unreal, unity if you are feeling risky.Ultimately it does not matter, just pick an engine and make a game, you can always switch when you make a new game later.
just like make a game

I just realized that my exact game already exists in a better form. I'm making [existing game, but worse].

>>578790626Yup, I stand by what by what I said

what happened to this game?
do steamies seethe at the idea of idea stealing? can I just remake a popular game with my direction and ship it without causing too much seethe?

>>578791947Robox has a whole industry around this.
>>578792521Indeed. A good artist turns a bad game into a good game worth playing with art alone.
>>578793016that post inadvertently concedes everything

>>578793206Wrong.
maybe if you have no ideas/creativity it's because you have nothing to work with. e.g. what if you just learn more engine features or other new algorithms, implement them, see them working with some placeholder boxes and your brain gets more and more things it can combine?also the brain might react much different to see something on screen that you made work, than just thinking about it. e.g. if you see your plane you coded flying around, your brain has much more feelings about it than just thinking about a theoretical plane you could program if you wanted to.
Anyone work in AA or AAA? Got any funny work drama stories?
I'm trying to focus on gamedev but I hopped back on cycle and I keep having painful boners throughout the day and I don't have a gf at the moment to release the pent up sexual frustration and I keep having sex dreams. I need a GF ASAP or I will become nodev.
nice He Who Watches finally got a release date for september 2nd
>>578794932is this inspired by looker & witness?
i yesdev'ed to day because i stopped needing a why.although that "why" is less philosophical, but more a "what does this get me?" why.it's a state where you don't need meaning and don't need money. you just do it.maybe as soon as you want something, you freeze because you overanalyze how to get there, but when all you want is to start, then no perfect plan is needed.
>>578795078wtf is witness?

>>578792619I'm making a sequel/homage to an obscure 1993 PC-98 fantasy game and looking for someone interested in trying a track, either in an authentic PC-98/FM style or as a heavier fantasy-metal arrangement in the vein of Rainbow/Dio.The original game was pretty sparse on music - several bosses, areas, and situations had no unique tracks, likely because of time/budget constraints - so I'm trying to create new music that could slide naturally alongside the original soundtrack without feeling out of place. I have a playable build, character/scene references, the original OST, and some heavier cover/mockup tracks if you're interested.Original 1993 music:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqBPFonRK74&list=PLiyMJTk9cb_lAGpaDJM9DPctboqAGBnHiHeavier covers/mockups:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2nhAFsohzdU&list=PLJDrF2WKyaDw&index=4

>>578794443are you 14 years old
>>578792619make a track for a game about a clown girl in her circus
>>578790640shoot your shot, maybe she likes ugly dudes
>>578795090If I go without a strong plan I end up devving in circles
>>578796070yeah making a plan could be considered yes'deving. i guess my point was more about needing a reason to even start anything.e.g. if you believe your chance to earn money is very low and money is your goal, then you end up with "why even doing this?"but if you need no why, you can start anyways.this almost sounds like real freedom.
i stopped using chatgpt like an oracle for everything and started to niche it down to being a unity professional and overall game dev expert who helps me with all my dev questions, and i use it for nothing else anymore.
>>578795895It's just 9 Kings. I'm working on an async pvp autobattler themed around town/army building, but I just realized today that 9 Kings had an update adding async pvp a few months ago.

Why are AIniggers so proud of being cucked by their AI? Like imagine announcing to the whole world that your game and its progress rests entirely in the hands of a fucking robot that can stop working when it says so.

>>578735494He's probably one of those coders who screams if you don't use le "good coding practices" just drop toby fox on him with his codebase. Let him seethe that code can spagetti as long as the game is liked by enough people (or a few who are willing to buy a ton of copies) then it doesn't matter if you don't code it to perfection.

It could make designing platformer levels way more fun and quicker. Or any genre really, gives you a quick feel for moving around in the space and scale. I'll be dicking around with it when I get to level design
>>578797558Session limited.
>>578797235If it stops working entirely then I will just pick up from where it stopped working. I actually made a proper design and architecture document and my prompts are just basically my internal thoughts for how I'd write the code myself so the project is entirely readable and manageable by a human reader.

>>578797637During a session you still will make 10x more progress than if you'd work manually so the limits are whatever. It's also going to work when you would normally not feel like because you're tired, depressed or whatever. It's also budget-limited, not session-limited.
Codex is playing my game and making adjustments to player and camera movement. No point building on top of shitty controls.
