>>580981672
I'm making a game but I refuse to show it. I am not getting cloned. The idea is simply too good. That and unfortunately it seems when I do reveal my game, I need to release it soon thereafter. Can't take the risk of showing it in some festival 1 year before release and finding out 6 months later that someone saw and cloned it and is releasingba month before me. Sure revealing my game would do wonders for marketing. But it's a game that shows a lot of promise, so why show it early? From what I understand a game that meets a minimum set of bars usually does well even when released out of nowhere. Feels like shadow dropping a game is the only route that's safe besides participating in a Next Fest that is within 3-4 months of release, less if the game is easier to clone.

Complaining about AI is a foid thing.

Preferences.

Needing ai to code chess.

Females like attractive characters they just say they don't. Now that it's not main stream they can safely self insert because there is no longer consensus to hate the game, so it's now 'safe' to like.

Woman don't seem to like or dislike chess, but many consider it an intelligent game. So when it comes to that it's not a like or dislike.

I get everyone thinks it's an intelligent game. I just don't think your average foid is going to sit down and make a game about it, they don't care enough.

Right now friends and some other players keep asking "make tutorial like in that gacha phone game" or complaining "too many words" instead of reading my game rules.

Is it so hard to sit down and read some game rules for about 5 minutes? Did gacha-brain kill every neuron of every player? 99% of players that tried my game can't read or lose interest if they have to read more than 3 lines of text... so I tried to show my game to a friend which is a PHD researcher and he could sit down read quiet fast and understood the game without having me to open my mouth once.

Is it over? Do people really hate reading that much? if I want my game to be played I need to treat my playerbase as if they are toddlers with lot of flashy and funny sound cues pointing with arrows at everything so their 5 seconds attention spam don't drop and lose interest?

What is the point of even making niche games if nobody is willing to spend 3 minutes to learn a new game concept they haven't seen before in some youtube channel or other friends playing...

Yes, in one of the private MMO servers we have banking interface where you can deposit/withdraw currency, one day I was on screenshare with one of our players because he wanted to show me a bug reproducer, and I saw him struggle trying to deposit every currency he had one by one, I promptly told him that htere's a shortcut where you can right-click the banking interface to deposit all currency as a quick action. He then said that nobody ever heard of that feature. Meanwhile hovering the icon literally says "right click to deposit all currency"

>>581007509

Right now I am designing a single player version with simple steps with repetition with least text as possible like "Win 5 rounds!" "Do this 5 times!!" with very colorful pulsating arrows and it adds new elements of the game as the player progress... Will that be enough? I don't think so because I feel nobody wants to play games unless other people are doing it or they have seen their favorite youtuber play it first.

I believe it's better to put a hold on gamedev and learn mind manipulation from j*ws.

>easy to make
>easy to sell
>that's how a genre becomes shovelware
This happened to blobbers back in the early days of PC gaming. Then it happened to "doomlikes". It's a repeating pattern that will always follow the industry. The window to make small games closed just like that. The opportunity to make easy money is practically gone. Sure there will be the occasional successful small game but the competition got so fierce so quickly and the amount of slopware is insane.

From now on if you want to make it you have to make a game with substance and depth. Something that AI cannot slop up in an afternoon or dozen. Something that slopdevs can't make because they are overly reliant on AI.

Your PHD friend wouldn't bother reading your shit either if he wasn't your friend and you weren't standing over him while he did it. How much fun are you promising to reward the player with for reading the rules? The answer is: not nearly enough to justify reading 5 minutes of tutorials.

Not much progress today, loads of refactoring behind the scenes to uncouple my code from the game engine's own components. Unless I need something from the engine, it is easier to manage all state myself. But I found out that the engine supports a `find()`, so I might try to write a few helpers to fetch global nodes/components. However, the less I use engine APIs, the easier it is to manage game state.

You need explain the game's rules as part of the tutorial/story. That was a primary area of focus for my DD 70 submission based on player feedback to DD 69. I went so far as to write entire scenes specifically to give me opportunities to teach the rules of the Marotte. And I have MORE work to do.

I had an idea this weekend to allow the player to use downtime to play ponjan from the original 1993 The Legend of Pong Long Fighter Sunny'Na.

Your opponent will be Mame and it won't involve combat/attacks; just a friendly game between the two women.

I have it functional. I just need to move away from buttons to clicking the tiles and other play area elements to interact with the game. I also need to zoom in the camera more and revisit the lighting effects for the tiles. But it is fun playing the classic game inside Marotte.

what would be a big gamedev dream? i feel like "talking to realistic npcs" isn't even a big dream anymore, cause you just need to hook up an ai api. also "gta but you can walk into every house" is a stupid dream too, cause it could already be done but in practice it'd probably just bore you.
having sex with every npc? you'd just fap to it a few times and then it becomes like normal porn, you'd probably just end up watching videos anyways.

Why would they want to use a timer that can drop frames and has less features than actual speedrun timers?

If you're an amateur artist you should stick to either the foreground or background being noisy and the opposite being minimal.
in this case, i'd simplify the background and get rid of the "dithering".

I've got and idea for a game and no skills to make it happen except 400k $ of savings. In scale, it would be like MiSide, which was made by (allegedly) 2 Russians with budget of crate of vodka. How viable is it to hire indie studio to create it?

If you want perfect scaling you need to be using fractions. The majority of people are using 1920x1080. That means your options are
>960x540
>640x360
>480x270
unless you want to fuck up your pixel scaling or add black bars for the majority. In your example resolution of 512x288 one pixel would be scaled 3.75 which cannot be displayed in crisp detail.

How did this shit sell so well? Do normoids really not care about ugly ass synty assets? The game is pretty basic too. A shopkeeper dungeon crawler but nothing new. The dungeons are lame box rooms and straight corridors. Combat isn't terrible but it's nothing special either.
>>
>>581075862
it was a good idea
>>
>>581076098
I've been saying for years normals are attracted to synty slop like flies to shit. Synty assets were designed to be as appealing as possible while being generic enough to fit with almost any setting. There's literally no reason not to use them.
>>
>>581076098

>>581076236
it's just tower defense but there's green orbs called "orcs"
>>
>>581076510
I mean sure there's a bunch of games that sold well using them but usually they back it up with gameplay. I would have understood if this game sold because it had good art but it uses synty assets and isn't anything special when it comes to gameplay. I don't see how it's a 1.4k reviews in 3 weeks type of game. Honestly I would have been surprised if it did more than 200 reviews in the first month but it's way outperforming that.

>>581076754
But Fell Sell isn't even particularly dopamine-sloppy. It's kinda slow. You're waiting a bunch for the customers or you gotta run around asking them to come in.

Do you view yourself as an artist?

After adopting AI workflow into my coding processes, I no longer view my game as a work of art but a product. It's a sacrifice im willing to make in order to develop faster. It was all an ego thing anyway. I just couldn't masturbate to my fantasy of being this sophisticated artist if i was using AI for the codebase.

Useless whining blog post follows, filter with "days until I run out of money" and work on your game.
I had to go to a mall to cancel some service and it struck me how fucking poor I am. The mall was full of people just chilling in cafes and restaurants, sipping coffees and cocktails, eating fancy pizzas and fancy muffins and buying clothes from stores that could afford to be fully staffed and empty almost all the time. And there I was trudging by calculating in my head how much extra time canceling that 10€ a month service will buy me. The answer is very little.
45 days until I run out of money and look back on this level of poverty as the golden age. I'm done with explosions. They still don't look good but they don't look worse than the rest of the game so they're fine. Today I need to start fixing bugs. My bug list is again longer than my features list and I need to fit everything on one screen's height for my mental health.

I can send you more of my art in discord, i dont have a dedicated gallery because i usually just get jobs from reddit posts or discord. Main benefit of asking me is that i do stuff for cheap, as there are a lot of better artists out there.
I only have experience with characters and animations. Environment knowledge is lacking, items even more so. My only experience is from my own project, which im not far enough yet to accumulate experience in other fields with, and doing animations for others.
I dont have anything i dont want to draw except sexualized women (just not interested in them).
If you want to see more art of mine, discord is craspedium.
Always willing to do one or two things for free in the beginning to see if wed work well together. Payment later is only after i complete batches of work.

Ah, I'm sorry to hear. Suno is not great. It's a funny novelty and every so often you'll get something like music, but after you've listened to it enough you'll notice that every song has an identical structure. It also can't do reliable loops, so it's useless for game dev, imo.

this is why i recommend security
most security sites (especially at hospitals) are hurting severely for unarmed security
if you land yourself a warm body site (like a hospital, hotel, warehouse, etc) most of your time will be spent sitting at a desk
bring your laptop and get paid to dev
that's what i do

a lot of security places will say "need at least 1 year experience" just ask the security guards at the site who their site operations manager is and ask if you can give em a call, softer sites will have friendlier guards who can help you get a job cuz usually they're hurting for help and are desperate

you can legitimately get paid to dev

recommend this too if you don't care about having a serious job, back in the day I used to work night shifts security for a private parking in a big city
my job would basically require me to get there at 22, then every 2 hours until 6 am do a random check up around the perimeter and note down all the coming and going cars (which, at night, were almost none)
90% of my job involved just sitting in my cuck container looking at cameras, watching tv shows and fucking around on my laptop

>>581100042
I would estimate the nodev to dev ratio to be somewhere around 5 to 1. There's an insane amount of posters here who have never made a game. Maybe they tried and gave up. A bunch of them never even tried. I have no fucking idea why they are here but a bunch of them have been here for years despite no game.

I've worked security at a warehouse, you just have hours and hours of dead air. The hospital bit was definitely a bit of a stretch, those are way more active sites than warehouses, but there's a lot of warm body sites out there.

With jp people are gonna tell you it's readable, but no, it's total dogshit. Quality is like a severely jagged line with the peaks being considered passable.
It just misses too many basic concepts, has no idea of tone, forgets who's who and it's instantly recognizably slop.

>>581108000
How about just UI translations? Strings like "Start Game", "Critical: xx" and so on?
>>
>>581108098
If it's text that simple you might get better results with a regular translator so you can proofread. LLM's will have no idea of UI lingo like "new game" instead of "modern game" for other languages unless they get it from a blogpost of some autist.
>>
>>581106885
>>581108098
LLM MTL is more than good enough. For anything more complicated, do it the same way you would do code: feed it the entire context, tell it to do stuff like generate a task-specific dictionary to maintain word choice consistency. Tell it to go back, reread, and reason about if all the context makes sense.

I have a Mac laptop and it's the gayest thing to do gamedev on, whenever i use it I just wish I could go home and use windows

>>581106885
if you think your writing can be accurately translated by an llm it isn't good writing
>>
>>581108683
That's actually a good idea. I have a central file with all English strings, I could tell Claude to analyse the code context surrounding each string and add inline comments explaining the context, then I could tell LLMs to use that as a basis for translation. I'll give it a go later.

>>581108795
This is mostly for user interface, player stats, enemy stats and buff effects. There's no dialogues actually.
>>
>>581108098
there's a google doc covering almost all strings like that.

Imagine being so wrong about object-oriented programming and then discovering Lua. Its simplicity and data-oriented programming! No more worrying about whether 'red' is a colour and whether it has to inherit from 'Colors' or 'Entity', or whether a 'Container' must be an 'Entity' or an 'Actor', and so on. We're back, anons

Translation is a completely solved problem. What the fuck are you guys even talking about? Especially if the direction is "english > other languages". You don't ask AI to just translate, you ask AI to rewrite it natively. China/Japan/Etc literally use LLMs in their native language, it is not just passable, it is fully functional and proficient. I mean, that is the core point of an LLM, to be trained on fucking human language.
