I am malding. Bought this pack a few months ago: https://bkx1.itch.io/combat-rpg-characters-animations-backgrounds-and-more-pack-74>Assets are partially AI-assisted and then manually corrected, modified, and polished to ensure quality and commercial viability.FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!! Put the disclaimer as the first thing, not the last. I bought something that I could have done it myself. The point of buying was not having AI assets and avoid free bad reputation for the game.

Aika, Cosmic Break, the Aeria forum shit. 150 people in the guild but somehow I got to answer for whatever he'd been posting that day. I wanted people to play with. that was it. instead it's pubs coming to /jp/ to argue, his mates doing the u mad routine, everybody else leaving. and then he leaves too because there's another game to do it in. WE WERE STILL PLAYING THE OLD ONE YOU CUNT.And Shock Cocoon. same picture. same thread. same "what do you guys think of this project" from somebody who apparently just discovered his own fucking website. Chief Editor and Project Manager. couldn't just make a game, had to make sure everybody knew who was IN CHARGE of making the game. I remember trying to filter him and losing the game threads because he put his name on those too. can't even get rid of the prick without getting rid of the thing you came there for.>>>/jp/7504482>>>/jp/7504494deleted named thread, anonymous repost. there. before somebody says nobody ever had proof. i'm not digging this up for fun, i'm digging it up because you people keep fucking LYING about why everyone hated him.>it's been fifteen yearsyes and? does the date make it not happen? am I supposed to like him now? he gets to show up with another demo and we're all supposed to go oh nice work anon. FUCK your demo. I don't care if it's good.And don't reply "who" you know who. or you're him. and if you're not him why are you doing this for him. why is there ALWAYS somebody here doing this for him. I was there before the name change, I was there before the studio shit, you don't get to tell me it was harmless because you only saw the funny screenshots. it wasn't fucking funny on our end.

the problem with western video games is the art. the artists suck. look up a random korean artist drawing game art on youtube and it's worlds ahead of western slop.it seems like especially america is obsessed with abstract comic slop.

Not sure if windows 98 style menue games can be sucesfull in todays market.But then I remember that rules the waves 3, vampire survivor, civilization, freeciv, the entire genre of VN, honnie hop, tycon genre, sims city, were extremelly popular with gamers.
>>580866835absolute shit idea. i hate nostalgia slop. it's absolutely shit and trash. and it shows absolute lack of creativity.i get having nostalgia for a victorian mansion, but not for a gray box.
>>580867167least grumpy soilennial
Hop in
>>580865896If you wanted to turn people's opinions around you should play their demos. The v3 community has too many self-serving devs who never talk about games besides their own.
Friendly reminder to not give people who post "censored" doxx any attention since it enables bad actors to easily find them in the archives. Just report and ignore.

>>580867761So it's interesting we're discussing doing off season interviews with devs showing off new releases and stuff in a podcast style format. I had to get a new VA first (which we did now) before we moved forward with it.So you're not far off.

>>580867167I think people use it because it's cute as UI.
>ywn be a maid
i love simplicity.maybe gaming had those phases:1) fantasy, lets go into the magical world, who cares about mundane real life activities?2) "what if you could do x in y?" (fishing, mining, crafting, building)future: "i can fish, mine, craft and build in other games, give me a game that is focused on something specific"
why is it that the more you play a game the more you hate it? is it the same effect as marriage?it must have to do something about your illusions being torn apart.
>>580869830Video games are shit.
>>580868225>All content creatorsWhich implies game developers too
the only times i'm not depressed is when iam at work. they give me something to do, it doesnt burn me out, it gives me a social life, it gives me a bit of physical exercise.
>>580869830maybe you just don't like video games and that's ok there are other forms of entertainment out there
>>580870285i can't afford video games
everytime i try to quit social media i feel like i implode. then i shitpost on 4chan and watch filth on youtube again and suddenly i feel a release.
>>580870403you sound like a giant faggot have you tried grindr? its free
>>580866217While the rendering on the right looks more proficient, the silhouettes and shapes are so non expressive and the same repeated common design tropes that they are nothing more than an asset factory. Ai will most likely replace those on the right way earlier, because they are more a collective mental channel of carnality from 2 billion people into an art form, than any individual expression. Not to say the left isnt below average, it definitely is, but at least theres a chance that theyd produce something interesting with their variety in the future. The third one is especially atrocious. Generic "hot" women take with random gibberish that clutters the design.Even if you want to simply goon, the right is most likely better.

As long as you can hand craft art assets that you think is good enough. I can't craft what I want, and it adds an exponential amount of time in making progress.

why do the industry and gaming youtubers care so much about heavily shilled AAA games, but when you see what zoomers play is not AAA best goy games, but shit like roblox, minecraft and emultor games and the shit the older milenials play are retro emulation shit, fightcade, neogeo games or shit like job traditional wife simulators or Nintendo games
>>580886702Because (1) they’re paid to cover them, and (2) people that don’t play games watch summaries of AAA ones to feel like they’re keeping up with whatever artistic output there is in gaming

>>580885360Never EVER take a woman back. The only acceptable scenario is if you get into an argument and need a few days to cool down and then go back to it. If a girl ever breaks up with you and then much later wants to get back that means she first rode the cock carousel when she was finally "free", then tried dating, then couldn't find a better replacement and is trying to make you take her used up ass back. DO NOT FUCKING ENGAGE. HAVE SELF-RESPECT.

Cross-post from /v/ because I'm a validation whore.Progress, but nothing terribly exciting.Modeled a new treasure chest for one of the zones.Finally got around to adding the ability to choose items within dialogues, went a little easier than I though it would once I got my head around it. Dialogue system was one of the first systems I wrote, so it's got a few bad / confusing code flows in it. Also wrote up the relevant behavior tree tasks to go along with it, mostly to check if player has items of type and remove selected items once used.Also added a new system that automatically sets up traps on chests using a generic chest actor, so I don't have to make 6x of them for each zone. Added a new item that lets the player auto-succeed at disarming traps.Additionally added some extra code to the weather management system that sends some flavor update text when the weather changes, both to set the mood and give players a warning of what the new weather is without having to check manually.Next up is a few rounds of playtesting to catch bugs in all the new stuff I added, and get the wrinkles ironed out.

>>580905056AI is good for what it does, point out issues and produce slop art than can be prettied up with spit and polish.It can't model for shit tho.
>>580902084depending on your genre it might be worth considering to draw it physically and then scan it for easy instant sovl.>>580903736>inkscapeis this better than doing it on photoshop? my approach to mousecel art has been to paint with the pencil tool and then carve out shapes with the eraser across many layers but that takes forever so i've been considering the alternatives
>>580906453>It can't model for shit tho.it's not that bad. ideally you should have the budget for artists but i don't have that, lol>>580902084Meshy makes this very easy. Just put on clothes that you want to scan and take a selfie. Upload your selfy to Meshy. Congrats you are now in the game.I tried the tech out on my housemates and the results are just fine. If you just want the clothes, tell the Meshy agent that when you upload the selfy.
>>580902084i just draw everything on paper and then trace it digitally, i use a cheap ass signature tablet bc all i need is the pressure for tapering lines
>>580906453>AI is good for what it doesthis.
>>580906915If you want unoptimized garbage that is at minimum 100k vertices.
>>580906915I mean, anyone can make art but making a good model and modeling actually takes talent. The problem is it takes a long time and nobody wants to pay for something that actually takes that long to make. Artists can draw up shit in 4 hours compared but just TAKE 4 weeks doing it.

>>580855878Made a big step, moved part of my suspension code to the chaos physics thread, meaning the building blocks to completely framerate independent physics are in place, awesome! Proof of this is that right after I took this screencap, the right vehicle (that runs on the game thread) promptly launched itself into orbit thanks to the brief moment where the game thread paused and forces accumulated while the left one (running on the physics thread) stayed perfectly stable, hell yeah brother.Will be moving the rest of it to this new architecture over the next couple of days. I ended up fixing a couple of small things on the suspension side, but I want to avoid that kind of detour as much as possible.Quite frankly this is the first time that I wished I was using Unity. Unreal needs a LOT more code to do what Unity does with a simple FixedUpdate. But it was a fun challenge.Today's song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fm4fAGahcsE

the issue is that the games agdg can realistically make are games that can be cloned in 48 hours with AI.Realistically, your only chance is to make a design that can't easily be cloned.Like an RPG, but as a menue game and VN.

>>580928517No, it’s to make a world/lore so distinct that if someone clones that people will immediately recognize it and bitch at them, and if they clone everything else they have nothing.If an LLM renames the elements of and clones DAO’s lore, anyone with a passing familiarity with it will recognize it instantly. If they clone DAO’s gameplay it’s just every RTWP CRPG made since 2005.

I've been thinking of "vertical slices" and keep getting stumped by them.Like, staged/arcade games have easy slices. Just do 1-2 stages and end with a boss, bam.How would you do a vertical slice of say, Stardew Valley? Or SMT2? Hell even pokemon?
>>580942486forget the vertical slice meme completely and just make your game
>>580942486Depending on the game, a vertical slice could be most or even all of the game. https://gameworldobserver.com/2023/11/22/game-production-stages-prototype-alpha-beta-ship-tim-cain
Deleted everything gamedev related from my computer. I'm done with this hobby. It was just a phase.
>>580943501You will be back.
>>580942486>play video game in head>stop>this is the start point>keep playing game for a while>this is the end point>develop
>>580942486Assuming I know what “vertical slices” means just by context clues>How would you do a vertical slice of say, Stardew Valley?The farming part is its own system. The relationship management is its own system. The dungeon caverns are their own system. They have a common navigation/inventory system so that has to be finished first or you have to implement them without the UI with those stubbed out.>Hell even pokemon?Combat is a slice. ETC ETC.I think you either need to develop movement first and/or concurrently with all slices, or develop them without a UI first if it’s something like a combat system where that can be done.
>>580943725No, that's not what vertical slice means, retard.
>>580943501Me with thinking about other guys romantically
>>580942486>>580943725After looking it up: developing in that way is retarded and shouldn’t be done unless you’re preparing something to show an investor.
>>580943805I mistakenly assumed it would be something that wasn’t stupid.Though technically the dungeon crawler part of stardew is still a slice.
>>580943501and you're telling us this because...?
>>580943930It's for real studios who are making real games with long production schedules.
>>580944145No, it’s for preparing throwaway demos for investors. Nobody develops in “draw the rest of the fucking owl”. That’s retarded.
>>580944231Investors will invest in just a GDD. It takes at least several months for real studios with actual skilled staff to make a vertical slice for any AA/AAA game, and you'd already be bankrupt in that time period if you didn't have money already.
>>580943820this but sexually

ngl scrolling through the new releases page i see a few games that would have been successful if they had any effective promotion whatsoever
my game has a major glaring flaw that i am simply too lazy to deal with and i am deploying every reasonable compensation method at my disposal to hopefully remedy it
I want to make a game that looks like this
>>580954518https://discord.gg/hXMqEsWVBZBe warned you have to post your game to be let in. They also do Jackbox every Sunday around 5pm EST but I haven't had time to join yet.
>>580955673Well what is stopping you?
>>580955724be careful not to get doxed by the big guy betz himself
>>580955761buying assets is easier
>>580955947not doing anything is even easier
what if lonely asceticism is the absolute freedom?if i just have a part-time job that's enough to pay my ascetic apartment, i can do whatever i want.and if i don't want to make money or share stuff, then copyright also isn't a problem anymore.this means i can make a game for myself with whatever assets i'm able to rip from other games and i can use whatever tool i'm able to crack.i can put whatever music or sound effect i want into my game. i basically have absolute full freedom. cause it's only for myself and copyright doesn't matter. also if anybody likes it doesn't matter, cause i don't need their money.
>>580955980no game
I wish I was a fastdev so I could push out games quickly.
46 days left until I run out of money. I now owe only 40 hours of work because I paid off 200 minutes in the last 3 days. Desperate times...I said yesterday whatever I do on explosions by the end of that day would be it. Can you guess what I'm gonna be working on today... and probably tomorrow? Fuck.
>>580956974are you female and will you suck my dick
>>580956862it's overrated, i took drugs to work faster and all you do is sacrifice your health to make worse games
>>580956223Just be sure you don't start wanting more out of life. And that no emergency ever happens to you or anyone you care about. If you live on the bottom for too long, you can get stuck there no matter what you do.>>580957105Double negative. And the sequential kind, not the recursive kind.
>>580954751If you post a lot you get enough social credit and it's reduced to 2 or 1 steps. The minute wait is supposed to only be for the very first time you post. Are you posting from incognito mode or with some other hacker stuff?
Suppose you make a river or a lake , is it really bad to have a custom mesh for a collider instead of primitives(take much longer to assemble accurately)
>>580957292>Double negative. And the sequential kind, not the recursive kind.
>>580890896It'd be more exciting to see how that looks like in-game, you know.
Man, AI is great.Made in like 4 hours by telling it what to do, my tetris japanese vocab idea.:DIt's pretty good.
>>580957702>I got a great idea!>tetris againreally anon?your slop will sell maybe 5 copies at most in a span of 20 years
>>580957791t. ranny with no game
>>580957791It's a game to drill japanese vocab.
>>580957853Im working on a game, but Id rather have no game than a fucking tetris clone
Using AI is like sitting in the cuck chair, you just watch it create for you
>>580957702when AI shills tell you ideaguys are winning because AI will make every other gamedev role obsoleteI don't know if this is a good idea, it looks like tetris to me but you also need to pick the correct translation? I'm dumb and AI has already surpassed me
>>580872325trvke of the century, wild animals will never betray you like hoes do on agdg
>>580958043yeah, is less about tetris and more like anki + tetris.
>>580958009can AI also put my hands in tiny hand-sized cages so I can't type even if I wanted to? and have my game jeer at me how AI is a much better developer?
>>580957910you have no game
>>580855712norbutel stop harrassing your family
>>580958091I don't know what anki is. what I'm seeing is ordinary tetris but you also translate on the side? are the two activities connected?
>>580958043ideaguy isn't supposed to be synonymous with game designer or game directorit's a derogatory label for people who have no skills, including generating good ideas
>>580958220anki is a flashcard app.So this is the 6k japanese core deck but as a fun basic tetris game, so It's not fucking a chore like drilling the 6k deck.
>tripfag thinks his opinion mattersyawnwish they'd kill themselves already
>>580958336you explained nothing. in >>580957702specifically what's the connection between playing tetris and choosing one of the offered translations? what if you only play tetris and ignore the Japanese stuff?
>>580958336>anki is a flashcard app.technically it's an SRS app, which is a form of flashcards, but anki doesn't work like flashcards on-demand out of the box, so don't be surprised if you're forced into SRS
>>580958348this
>>580958469you'll only get the best score if you play correctly the good answers.bad answers give you a lower rank.
>>580958639so it's 90% tetris and 10% flashcards?
so claude hates boobies but will give me piracy links to those rapidshare sites when i ask for free assets
>>580958757nobody asked you retard
>>580958757kinda.the point is to make fun the repetition of the flashcards.
>>580958802claude is jewish
>>580958802claudia is a jealous bitch>>580958949can you feed it your own flashcards or is it supposed to always draw from a predefined lists?also, does it use spaced repetition or is it just level-based?
>580959105
>>580959105No, It's just 6k japanese deck.It's level based, not spaced repetition.
>>580869830When you fall in love with something you spend a lot of time with it but as you spend more time with it you start to notice the flaws. As time goes on the flaws start nagging at you and you start taking the good parts for granted. Eventually you forget that there was any good at all. You can only see the flaws and they make you furious. That's how love turns into hate.
>>580958469>specifically what's the connection between playing tetris and choosing one of the offered translations?There isn't. The two are completely disconnected, they happen in parallel and you get scored at the end. It's the equivalent of those videos that play subway surfers in the corner to keep zoomers entertained during longer sections. He failed to combine the two in a meaningful way, this is why being a GOOD idea guy is not a job that ends with two sentences and a molyneux picture, you need to think about the implementation as well.
>>580959264the biggest criticism i can give so far is this menui have no idea which vocabs im learning in any given stage just from the corny description and cringe titles
Have anyone ever made money on crazygames over steam?

>>580962090
>>580962360I looked this up yesterday and it made me happy that the "original" guy is getting beat in release and someone will have this game out by the end of the month.
>>580962237those are just the most popular videos. there are literally hundreds of "why don't we eat hippos" videos and most have triple digit or fewer views
>>580962325one of them has over 100k>>580962360does copyright just not exist anymore?
>>580962325>anon's game trailer - 14 views, no engagement>cloned slop #467 - 5k views, lots of engagement
>>580962470Copyright never applied to game ideas unless you're one of the few that manages to file a patent. Even then, patents usually don't protect the whole idea. Only things like assets are protected (assuming you created them yourself or bought exclusivity.)
>>580962486>>580962469yes even getting 1k is an achievement compared to the 30-40 views shit i see from aggydaggy
>>580962090turdworlders should be banned from the internet
>>580962605B-but I was told that v3 getting 7k views was NOTHING????
>>580962605These videos are watched by foreigners and Indians so 1k views is going to net you like 20 cents assuming you are monetized.I don't think it's worth the effort to slop it unless you're the guy getting 100k views consistently.
>>580962470titles are protected by trademark, not copyright.also, common idioms are almost impossible to trademark.

>>580962772Anon you are showing your naivety. You think the sloppers only copy one video? You copy thousands, even if you only get 5k views per video, that's still at least minimum wage as a completely passive income. Also Youtube's algorithm has a pretty neat thing where it will suddenly show even old videos to people for a while, and they're chosen randomly so it could choose your clone over the original, and you basically win the algorithm lottery and get some million views. The more videos you have, the higher the chance.

"competition is for losers"- peter thiel
I don't understand social media :(
>>580963752You're assuming these videos are monetized when they probably are not. YouTube just changed their monetization guidelines to prevent repeated slop content from making money.Even if the channel gets monetized, YouTube can use their new policy to demonetize every slop video you post now or in the past. If it keeps happening, they'll demonetize the whole channel. This can also cause every channel you own to be demonetized all at once.
ideaguys when they're given all the tools they need >>580963901
>>580963976Can you tone down the hate speech please? Thanks.
>>580964185social media is a platform where everybody advertises themselves, basically like a huge marketplace. since there are so many people now, your chances are eithera) ragebait, controversy, attention whoring, clickbaitb) buying adsc) consistency for 10+ years at least and slowly gaining a followingjust look at what youtube has become, every video feels like an advertisement disguised as content now.

Any suggestions for DRPGs that do something different for research?Like, they existed for a while until SMT came along with press-turn (and also Wiz4). Since then it's kinda been frozen, EO had map-drawing but even that's gone now. It's hard to think of a really innovative game in this space>>580964185ig youI'm making the best art I've ever done and no one gives a fuck meanwhile my old crap used to get way more engagement and views
>>580964646I don't think it will stop turd-worlders from trying because they don't read monetization rules to begin with. You'll still see this content constantly, they just won't make money on it.
>>580964646this is hilarious dude what the hell manit's almost like as soon as one idea does well your only two viable options are to copy it and sell it to people who haven't seen it yet (think thronefall being the original good idea for steam users and then kingshot being the mobile game copy for facebook moms and tiktok preteens), or to identify the theoretical basis of what made that idea so successful and then attempt to propose a new idea that might resonate with the same audiencethe digital market is so brutally competitive it's ridiculous

>>580965227what the fuck? 1 hour? nigga your game better be a hundred million lines of code

Question: What is Valve's current stance in the whole AI shenanigans? I was under the impression that Valve at least had some based moments compared to other platforms. Especially regarding AI clones. I can't fathom how it is good for them to enable this type of behavior. Are they just cool with it all?
>>580967632>more wishlists in an afternoon than my other game I worked on and polished for a year+how many would that be
>>580966943When someone is "skeptical" what they mean is that their opinions tend to align more closely with an alternative, less popular thought stream.Critical thinking necessitates personal analysis and evaluation. It doesn't have to be good analysis to be considered critical, but most people don't have an ounce of interest to do any of that because it's a very dry discipline devoid of emotion. It's much easier to hear two different opinions and sub-consciously drift to align with one opinion over another depending on how much I vibe with the arguments, conditions and results of either opinion.

how important was lady D to resident evils recent revival
>>580968171it would have sold 90% of what it did without her but for long-term success of the game memes and content about her lead to longer tail end sales and cultural relevancepretty important
>>580967698They're cool with it for now. They use AI themselves.They might change their mind if slop becomes so insane that they lose customers or developers though.
>>580967845There need to be separate words for “number go up” “progression” and actual new abilities and ways of combat progression.
>>580967710I like that the idea is terrible.
>>580968384>they lose customerscurrent promotion algorithm prevents this, the only games the average steam user sees are already successful titlesthey made it way harder for devs to earn promotion in order to prevent slop from demoralizing users>we'll only help your game if you manage to sell $10,000 worth of copies in a 14 day period
>>580967710This is the kind of raid shadow legends mobileslop that can be dark patterned into billions though. FarmVille etc
>>580968652>dark patternedbuzzword
>>580967698Valve was only cautious about AI in the first place because it was impossible to know if it was actually legal to use it in commercial products or if there was going to be copyright lawsuits out the ass. Now that its clear there's not going to be a copyright crackdown on AI its basically never enforced except for games with 'live' LLM content.
>>580968637I get recommended a lot of slop and the games get bombed review wise a lot of the time. Could result in customers getting more and more annoyed if it keeps happening, or just being more cautious about purchases/higher refunds. Even Google had to make changes to YT because they can't run ads on slop without pissing off people who buy ads.
>>580968806this has been happening for as long as i remember, the promotion algorithm's main trigger is and always has been revenue, the negative reviews are basically the game being pushed to a larger audience of people with more critical taste, this is normal for steam, most users don't even bother checking the popular new releases tab where most of these games are shown
>>580968806getting review bombed is better than getting ignored there's games out there with 3 downloads that are handcrafted
>>580967698Valve stance is "if the customer doesn't want it, the customer won't buy it. If the dev misleads customers they will refund the game and the dev review bombed into oblivion. Gaben is in his boat, all is right on land."

>>580964830My suggestion is that you do your market research and realize that DRPGs don't make any money. It is one of the worst genres you could choose to make in terms of financial viability. There's a lot of them because they are easy to make but that makes the average quality kinda high. You have to put in more effort for less return.
>>580970682I'm unable to view any porn game on steam with zero way to get around it other than requesting a credit cardeven if I move to another country they still won't let mewhat a shit platform
>>580971084why dont u have a credit card they are pretty handy to get tons of points
>>580968384>>580968637NextFest already got ruined by slop. Valve is going to feel the effects of it soon enough and something will change as a result.
>>580971242Monday morning Cope
>>580967632what gaem?
online theological discussions are dogshit bro go talk to the real heavy hitters they'll clear shit up real fast
on japanese youtube, creators are legally required to get permission from copyright holders before being allowed to upload or stream gameplayi feel like they are an untapped market since they're boxed in like thatalso, they tend to link the store page which is very nice but you may have to ask them to do that idk
>>580971438It is true though that the abundance of slop could lose customers and higher quality developers. Going to turn into Android's playstore but Valve doesn't run ads on games so there is less incentive for developers to stay.You have to convince someone to buy your slop which isn't really a thing on the playstore, it's an f2p market.
>>580971706>Going to turn into Android's playstoreThat ship has sailed
>>580971615a core reason why touhou got massive in fan works was because ZUN didn't give too much shit about copyright BS to the average comiket artist.
>>580971706nintendo is on a fucking lifetime run with the switch 2 its as good as the gamecube anyone with a brain will jump to sw2
>>580972270>switch 2 its as good as the gamecubezoomers are so grim
>>580972270>switch 2 its as good as the gamecubeNot the compliment you think it is. Gamecube completely flopped even if the library was decent for a flop console.
The average agdg dev here is a milenial or late zoomer who haven't keep up with the current monetization meta.They still think the average gamer buy a game and not just expect a fremium ads powered game with microtransactions.
>>580972484Nah it is as good as the gamecube but the gamecube was shit kek
Valve never allowed ads because they couldn't figure out how to get their 30% cut from them. F2P with ads IS a better model for games in the AI age, it just makes more sense.
Also, the current meta is to use Chat gpt to write the SEO and AI SEO so Gemini and Chat gpt can advice customers into your itch.io page.
>>5809726081st worlders don't like ads in games, there's a reason why even mega freemium games are still relatively niche in 1st world countries
>>580972985so your strategy is 45 year old gamers?Because there are no kids on the first world.
>>580972985>1st worlders don't like ads in gamesno one likes ads anywhere but who cares?
>>580972484>>580972589>>580972610its crazy you guys are trying to rewrite history like the gamecube wasnt completely fucking greati got ps3 on release and i was playing ps1 and gamecube and other shit because after kameo and resistance the next gen had nothing else for half a year+ until halo 3 and mgs4 and lost planet every single title on gamecube is good you have to really fish for licensed movie slop
>>580973207I had a Gamecube at release. It was a flop console, sold 10 million less than the N64. Sold less than both competitors at the time too (PS2/Xbox.) Many gamers complained it looked too much like a toy for kids. Not a problem in today's market but was an issue back then.I remember watching Nintendo announce Wind Waker and fans literally booed it at E3 because it wasn't edgy. Response was to make Twilight Princess.
>>580973207Multiplats were almost all worse, the exclusives weren't great, it lacked online except in like Phantasy Star, and the controller was doodoo brown.There's a reason they were selling that turdbox for $50 at the end of its life
>>580972270>nintendo is on a fucking lifetime run with the switch 2hahaha>its as good as the gamecubeHAHAHAHAHAAHA
>>580970948no steam allows full blown graphical penis in vagina porn
>>580973087Yes, those are the only hardcore gamers left. The rest are obsessed with mobileslop. We live in a dying world and I will act accordingly.
>>580973447>>580973534>>580973547this is just like the 4th grade again when wind waker's trailer gets teased and im the only one who likes it

>>580974073send them a steam game key along with express permission that they're allowed to stream itif they work for a company, send the permission to that company, too.>>580973929https://store.steampowered.com/app/3129780/Angry_Chef_World_Tour/
>>580974159Good idea, I will put explicit notices on the download page allowing content creation and ask for them to mention the name of the game and link to my page.
>>580974212>No GTA>No online shooters>Gimped retard C stick on the controller
>>580974212No one is saying the Gamecube is a bad console with a bad library or something, we're saying it flopped in the market.

OkayGodot or Redot? Is there even a difference?I know there was a big drama but idrc I just want to use what's more functional and feature-rich
>>580975217redot = woke reddit fork
>>580975217Are you a chud? RedotAre you normalish? Godot
>>580974536THREE SIX NINEGET LOW GET LOOOOW TO THE WINNNNDOOWWWW
>>580975217Godot always going to be more feature rich because it has dedicated troon devs behind it who have no life. Redot a fork with closed troon devs so they have less pride in going programmer mode.
>>580975217Just tell the AI what game you want engine are for 80yo homos
>>580974536six = 700

Sometimes it feels I'm the only one here actually making a game.
>>580981672are you brown?
>>580981672I make a lot of things myself, just waiting for a friend to help make a game.>New captcha is retarded
>>580981672DD had 66 entries. Most people won't submit a demo too even if they're working on a game.
has AI generated art made visual novels tainted as an entire genre? do people see VNs and just automatically assume its fully AI slop now?
i mean if somebody else made the exact same game i'm making i'd 100% enjoy it but i have doubts in the appeal factor of my personal preferencesgonna finish it anyways, release it, and see how it goes
>>580982361They assume if they can spot AI mistakes or it has an "AI-look."
>>580981946how many were just freeloaders though?
Indians are the jews of the 21st century
>>580982839no that would be the jews, indians are below jews just barely
>>580981792Is that the new chud buzz insult?
>>580983079>Is that the new chud buzz insult?
>>580982361visual novels are for porn, so no.coomers prefer AI hentai.
>>580982568Steam only bans your game if it's too lewd, doesn't care about AI. The problem is lewd games are harder to make because a lot of them can't use AI nearly as much.>Thanks Visa/MC for being a good mommy and banning those games, but giving 3 mill to a child killer is fine 8)
>>580983336Yeah I wasn't worried about Steam banning it, just people buying it.

>>580962090Ooof the acceleration of nearly every field getting monetized was increasing fast (I already knew this) but somehow I overlooked that AI could be used outside gamedev and thus accelerate saturation even further.>>580962314The problem here is that AI needs an idea. The majority who desperately think AI will help them succeed are the ones who have 0 ideas. I could make an AI video and it'd unironically be unique. Idea Chads we wonned.>within a few days several clones appearsAieeeeeeee!!!At least with a video you can't be cloned until it comes out. Just hope it does well before it gets cloned and youtube recommends theirs over yours. Hmm way too risky to reveal a video game early in development now. I wonder if any anons with obvious GMI ideas that have been revealed are afraid of getting cloned?
