>>581489609>maybe too colorful?The colours are for me to identify distinct elements. The buttons will look more uniform when implemented.

>>581490298>can a human escape the system?>can you?
Making another immersive sym RPG... I just cant help myself. All my ideas eventually end up as an RPG. I'll try to atleast keep this one small.

>>581491874I read feature as furniture and didn't think it was weird at all at least by the standards of this place
your games are failing because they suck and they have no soul. no taste. yeah your streamerslop might le go viral for a month and you can make a quick buck but in 10 years nobody will remember it and nobody will remember you. real videogames have an identity. mario will keep selling forever because their identity is solid and they make good and memorable games. and mario will never bend the knee to please no talent activist retards or no talent streamers/essayists. make a real game. make memorable characters. you can do it.

>>581499221Struggling with the same. When I look up timeframes for old jap rpgs and shit they would write the entire story in a matter of 2 or 3 months. Sometimes less. How in the fuck? Did they just pull shit out a hat?
>>581499221>>581499467if you have the systems in place let the game write itself its speaking
>>581499221I'm in the same boat. I feel like I had a story I wanted to tell years ago, but now I wonder if I should just forgo a story all together.
>>581493087All I see in this post is a mix of meme words and basic opinions.This isn't a "truth nuke" or "hot take" or "here's the T" or "truth bomb", it's just you admitting to be a victim of meme cancer and be just as uncreative as the devs you describe.

How do you explore 3d environment aesthetics without actually creating detailed models for everything? the equivalent of 2d concept art sketches you'd do.Do you go with like 10 kitbash pieces you mess around with? Stay in 2d and try to sketch/gather references(fully replicating it in 3d once you're ready)

>>581508270I invested like 3 minutes reading about this and it's not even for coding or gamedev. In that screenshot they're using it to decide NPC actions within the game. Slopfags don't even know what they're shilling anymore
>>581509463But what if you train a model on that for coding.
>>581509463using neural nets inside game is a really cool concept, too bad its all too fucking slow right now to run locally

>>581508705Gemini's Nano Banana 2 is the only model that is able to pull it off. I think google's approach is to surgically edit the original instead of creating a new image from scratch, which helps for pixel art and expressions specifically.Sometimes I tell it "keeping the appearance as close to the original as possible, adjust her expression to X".I'll sometimes need to surgically transplant the face/expression it gives me on to the gold master character reference, with a little photoshop sprinkled in. But Nano Banana 2 is your solution. Good luck!

I will be honest... I do not understand 99% of the lore of this general. It seems to have waaaay too many schizos and known figures. At times, it feels you guys are more interested in these general shenanigans than actual game development.

>>581517392no thanks, i try not to join random discords.pic related just reinforces my point though. fed the thread link to the cheap slopper and that's the answer i gotnot to be a wannabe janny but this place is a fucking time capsule. every time i come back here it's still people shitposting and talking about cris instead of making gamesi was gonna say i miss forums but fuck those were just as bad>>581518894now every time you talk with her keep saying integer as a goof just to annoy heryou are fineso this post has something game dev related what do people think about 3D models as UI elements? ie: compasses, health bars as physical objects, etc

Filled with bullshit jobs.When you go to a shit tier min wage job with a PhD on paper, they will 100% know it's a temporary job you're using as a filler until you find something better.

>>581521276It's cause he fucked up my stove when getting the ramen sauce and made it sit at an angle which I didn't notice until I had just finished stirring in the eggs and sausage into the ramen and saw the pan sliding off the stove to its demise.

I've got a pressing issue with gameplay-story segregation in my game.In the world I'm creating, phoenixes exist, but they are endangered and very rare. There is a sidequest where you find a reborn phoenix and bring it to adulthood. It is a pivotal sidequest for the best/true ending. As it currently stands, the phoenix cave is located in plain sight 200 feet from the outskirts of the starting town.If I make the cave obvious, 100% of players will go to it, but it really begs the question as to how nobody else but the main character found it. If I make it where you have to rotate the character counterclockwise 3 times in a circle while your system registers it's a Tuesday, that makes it more believable but the number of people who see the Phoenix quest plummet.Any ideas on a good compromise? Maybe my character is "lucky" and the Phoenix lets her see it?

>>581531337sir, your video game?
>>581521351ah yeah that's a different storyi don't make 2D games so i'm not super sure of the process, but if you have 2D art experience then you already have the kind of eye for aesthetics that helps in making 3D maps so you're off to a better start than i wasi don't know if there is a sketch equivalent to 3D mapping outside of greyboxing/blockout desu. it's very much up to the individual.normally in the AAA/AA space, even in some indie projects, level design and environment art are completely different disciplines. the level designer creates the blockout of the level thinking of enemy placement, leading lines, flow, etc, then the environment artist arts over it later.since you have 2D experience, quick concept art sketch -> try to reconstruct with a blockout might be the way for you.for me with 0 art experience i mostly reconstruct reference material or get in-engine and throw around shapes with probuilder or trenchbroom until i find something that i like.but i also do things low/med poly and approach stuff mostly as a level designer first so for me being able to playtest as i put blocks down is giga importanti guess the TL;DR of it is>blockouts are closest thing to 3d sketches. they should be quick and cheap. do blockout first to find the 'skeleton' of the scene. refine blockout and make it more detailed over time until you are happy. start creating detailed models and substituting them in the blockoutpic related is one of mine. you can see the changes from blockout -> first pass -> finalmy blockout is actually not as detailed as i'd have liked it to be both interior and exterior but i was under time pressureas for actually doing blockouts blender is kind of shit for this. if you have $20, throw it down and get s&box. use its mapping tool and follow:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdSDojRatHw&list=PLHSLq5FjjRw0mC-roui0E04GOl9Dnf-Yd
Still plenty of work to go but it's coming together
I think I'll have to make my character more chibi-esque for the sake of expressivity...
>>581531417Backing up source code is important friend. Well if you want to know what else I'm doing, I'm trying to setup a nice cross-compile. Easy to do with a pure C program but it becomes annoying when you want to cross-compile with CHICKENSo I'm thinking of either setting up a Windows VM or ssh from windows

I made the mistake of trying out Aion 2's playtest. How in the fuck do you spend millions and make a game this shit? Why would anyone play this? The gameplay is outright disgusting. You autopath to the next quest objective and maybe press F a couple times and then autopath again. When you have to fight something it's over in a couple skill uses. Nothing poses a threat to you. Your consumables are used automatically. All your skills are overly flashy sperg out animations that do a gazillion damage. Sure the game is pretty but it expects you to run past it all. Is this what AA gaming is in current year?
>>581534735fuck now I have Aion nostalgia again
>>581535213Nostalgia over how bad the game was? If it was anything like 2 then it must have been a huge turd.

multiplayer 3D modeling program, idk what sort of "game" I can make out of it really. I also want to totally integrate it with my lizard engine properly.
>>581521635I think I'm dropping ai coding too. It no doubts makes devving much faster, but it's so easy to get out of control and sometimes you're implementing stuff so fast you don't get to really understand how stuff works in your own game. Not to mention the fact that recently I'm getting to the point where when I want to implement something my first instinct is to go to claude and ask him to do it for me, I don't even try to do it by myself anyore. I don't like this. I don't want to be a slave to AI companies. I don't need a machine to do the thinking for me. This is not how my programmer ancestors did it. From now on Claude is just a consultant to help me whenever something truly stumps me.>pic related a hero keeping ai in check

>>581550460ai coding is mostly a sham unless you can quantify what you want it's why they try to shill the hurr hill climbing it's good at, yes if you can measure the performance and have a callstack ready or some bug with a error log but those are easy for humans to go down as well just tedious, for real issues it doesn't solve shit and it mostly just hallucinates too or rather now it tunnel visions because it can't read the entire context and at any moments notice it tries to actively avoid reading source because it'll eat up your usage drastically so it tries to cheapskate out and read snippets but it tunnel visions too hard, we're really not that advanced yet past context and usage limits yet it's just as bad as last year they just found more hacks to sort of get past it and train bigger models with sort of better intuition but unless you keep mentioning what you want done it will just skip past things, and not in a good sense you literally have to tell it exactly what every time it's so draining
Guys I know it's hard. I know massive effort isn't always massively rewarded, but you have to TRY. Do something beyond moping, beyond hoping, build something that moves you forward, even without immediate material gain. Or you'll stay forever wondering why you're stuck.

bokube has been fygoon this god damn whole time the floating pigs on his latest progress gave it away its too strikingly similar to the pig bosses in bokube and so concludes the 3 year ruse it makes too much sense didn't he build bokube exactly the same way as fygoon's game? with all 3d primitives? its the same damn concept but with spheres instead of cubes wow we got played like a damn fiddle
>>581557593>The floating pigs in question
apparently gamedevs are more likely to believe in ghosts and the supernatural than other jobs

>>581557743>>581557843what are the chances two people build their game in the same unorthodox way and also some how post on the same message board and then some how also never post at the same time
I wish I was 10x drunkerPicked up old project I haven't touched in about 2.5 months, maybe 3, I'm still a retard so all I remember is that I was switching over to a finite state machine for the player, and I don't remember anything else, no story line, no game play mechanics, no nothing.How fucked am I or is this a "world is my oyster" situation?
>>581557593makes perfect sense, the dox of fygoon was probably just some kid with the same name, from a special needs center or something.
>>581558821did he ever complain about getting random pizza orders though
My game started as light hearted frenslop and it has now turned into grimdark frensoulslike
>>581557593Bokube has been around before Fygoon.

>>581562332kino but a direct sequel? isn't that passé? wouldn't your first customers feel as if you should have just made this a patch for the original game?
>>581562726first game is done, i think adding more would just clutter it up, theres enough content a lot of systems are overhauled here and new stuff will be addedsome things are placeholder ripped from the first oneits like fnaf 1 to fnaf 2, kinda
>>581563112>i think adding more would just clutter it upgood reason
hey buddy I think you got the wrong doorvagueposting bar's 2 blocks down
>>581562726>hey baby wake up, new rule landed>you can't make direct sequels now>you must keep updating your original gamegamercattle genocide needs to happen YESTERDAY
>>581565075yeah you cant make the same game right after the original its a rule like double dipping
cold-drop your game with no advertising after the 2 week minimum waiting period
>>581565243only the retarded do thisso anyways my brilliant release plan is to cold-drop my game with no advertising after the 2 week minimum waiting period
>>581565128double dipping is a rule when you're eating with other people so they don't have your saliva on their food. this rule you made up is for gamercattle to get more while the gamedevs get less. it doesn't make sense at all
>>581565243>>581565243it's called shadow drop, esl frens
>>581565342it does make sense because isnt he cannibalising sales of part 1?why would a goy cattle start at part 1 like a non retard?people still think GTA 3 is the first one
>>581565408I like to call it chilly-drop
>>581540702Looks transbianhonbeastcoded
>>581565456by the time he releases the sequel, the original will have sold 90% of whatever it was ever going to sell. btw Vice City came out a bit less than a year after GTA 3 and San Andreas came out a bit less than 2 years later. maybe he should title it wasteland snacks?

Hoping to start work earlier today. Yesterday I started work at 3pm and finished after 1am. 10+ hours time to do 5 hours of work. The stopwatch doesn't lie.41 days left. Yesterday I did first pass on damage texture decals. They look like shit for now and they'll be barely noticeable. But? There's no but, it's just a bad idea to spend time on it and I'll be doing precisely that the next couple of days.

>>581574517>It never generates text — it returns type-safe values with calibrated probabilities.This also describes LLMs, so I assume this is some kind of scam and that they got access to the test set somehow.
>>581572715i don't know what the developers are doing outside of this but i've seen multiple clips of this game go viral on social media, that could explain the support
>>581531829>>581510107Thank you for the writedown, I started getting into the online book. The way you work almost makes it seem like that's your job. In the 'casual' space of solo gamedev you probably have to cut corners. finding out where to cut corners while still getting good results is a struggle.
>>581574807>>581574853>>581574912https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSdSFLffv8AMaybe it's the retarded looking square characters, I thought they were cute but eh.

>>581575662it is a tough pill to swallow, this + clip farming on tiktok is the indie meta right now

>>581576090how many views does your most popular video have?
>>581576390https://www.youtube.com/@zackdfilms/shortsthis guy figured out a virality formula, different platform but the same techniques are used, i'd suggest you start investigating this skillset while you continue to work on your games, good luck friend i wish you the bestthe good things for indie devs is we already have the assets required to make short films, you can either use blender or your game engine's cutscene animator tools
>>581575662Just gotta make a deep game with passion. You can't force it. You gotta make something that really speaks to you and in turn it will speak to the players.
>>581576761this is true but even the best games benefit greatly from the slightest promotion efforts, the better your game is the more reason you have to at least post about online, literally zero downsides
https://steamdb.info/app/2231460/>50 reviews on launch what the FUCK is happening?? every critical reflex artslop game gets 1k minimum while a similar quality game from a well established publisher gets nothing is it actually just luck?
people mistakenly think "incrementals" are what's hot and cool right nowin actuality, it's newgrounds-tier flash gamespick any forgotten flash game and "upgrade" it to commercial release, that's your golden ticket right there.if i tried to find a game like scritchy scratchy released in 2010 on Newgrounds, I would probably find one
>>581576924Of course you have to promote. It's easier to promote a game that you are proud of. If you try to make viral slop and it kills you inside you won't do very well promoting it. Only the grifter hustler scammer can make that sort of game and not feel a thing about it. They are rotten people.
>>581576761Yeah thats what I did here. The game is brimming with Brazil in the 2000's feeling and heart. I put all my love for that time into this, and I dont even live in Brazil anymore, so it's just a nostalgic and close to the heart thing for me. ..so thats obviously not the case>>581576924This. Im now improving its looks and systems, and will continue to promote it.. Release October 30th and I guess let go and move on.>>581576650Thanks fren, Ill take a look
>>581577036>is it actually just luck?always was, unless you're literally 0.1% in skills which no one here is
Somewhere out there is an incredible game with 12 reviews because the developer is better at making games than marketing them.
>>581577254>Somewhere out there is an incredible game with 12 reviews This has been debunked countless times.
>>581577254Thanks valve
people would have classified among us as a bad game before it blew up, some games seem bad in theory but will still be enjoyed if presented effectively to the correct crowds>>581577254aggy denies this>>581577296>>581577036?
>>581577105nta but I'm viscerally disgusted by self promotion. I've been going to the gym for over 10 years and there isn't a shirtless photo of me in existence never mind on my social media.
>>581577320why does that game deserve more reviews?
>>581577320They did, Among Us was literally a 20-30 player game for 3 years before blowing up through a random lucky advertising by some streamer/youtuber.
>>581577320>50 reviews at launchSounds like a success for any solo- or duo-dev>b-but it needs more!!80% review score means it's not as "incredible" as you imply.Thanks for the concession.
>>581577428because it's good
>>581577296never debunked, 100% trueany game with >95% positive reviews is a great game, 100% verified, works in 2026
>>581577408Then you haven't made something you are truly proud of. Once you do you will want to share it with people and it won't come off as shilling it will feel genuine.
>>581577467
>>581577494>any game with >95% positive reviews is a great game,... or it's just 5 pity reviews saying shit like "it's a flawed game buuuuut".Someone literally made a list of games released per day. We LITERALLY have evidence that this phenomenon does not occur and games that flop always have an immediately obvious reason to flop.
>>58157746992%, 2 of the 3 negative reviews are low qualitydoes this not prove the game is good?
>>581577663going viral doesn't equal good gameaaa sells shit tier games all the time with marketing
>>581577756so as i understand it your interpretation is:- bad games can succeed with lucky viralityand- good games will always succeed?
>>581577748Review score can be essential but is not sufficient.
>>581577669We can come up with reasons why this game or that game flopped all day but can you tell me why PIH or Escape From Boykisser succeeded?
>>581577895memes
>>581577860any review is worth more than your meritcoping opinion
>>581577860how else would you measure the "good" metric of a game if not by the feedback of its players?>>581577895>>581577850bad games with lucky virality it seemsis there a stable definition of what makes a game good?
>>581577976gamers are cattle
=\
>>581577976>is there a stable definition of what makes a game good?yes, a good game is a game that sells well.and btw good games always sell well.no, that's not a worthless tautology because it came to me in a dream and esoteric something and hyperborea something christ is king and I'm chad
>>581577895Dunno, not relevant to the claim that games can market themselves.>>581577946Clearly not, considering it "flopped"? >>581577976>how else would you measure the "good" metric of a game if not by the feedback of its players?Store page is another big factor for push and pull, but more importantly review percentage is not a good indicator for game quality.A game can have 95% positive reviews and still be utterly mediocre, just because the expectation matched the experience, and the expectation was not very high.
>>581578143what nonsense
>>581578143He is completely right.
>>581578140but they're also your consumers, do you want to make a game you or other game developers consider "good" based on deeply biased personal assumptions not rooted in market performance and user feedback, or a game the players consider "good" based on the enjoyment they received from playing it?
>>581577254Not one. Hundreds.
>>581577895They're good games
>>581578209what you're really saying is "a good game = a game with competent marketing"
My game does not contain combat, and therefore does not require art.
/smag/ - social media algorithm general
>>581578720I was mocking that reasoning. I don't use terms good and bad for games or any entertainment. it's completely subjective and meaningless.
>>581578903i agree, all that matters to me is people enjoying the games i make, and in order to do that i need to present it to them, whether it's good or bad will be for them to decide, not mehence the focus on using social media to provide my game to these people, steam's organic visibility methods are too low and specialized for a particular audience, it is constricted to people who are already using steam and actively searching for new games with the available methods, this fails to capture the audience of everybody else who could enjoy my game but doesn't go through this effort
Ai fucking sucks at making images of anything it hasn’t seen a thousand+ examples of.
>>581580034thats uhhh how it works yeah
>>581580034not if you carefully weight each term in a local model and then roll the dice 1,000 times, you can get very awesome surprising combinations of imagery, scattered through a sea of trash
>>581574517>>581575017It's just an model trained on decisions rather than text.It's not a scam, It's not a LLM.It's basically a smarter if, switch and range command.

>>581488594What do you guys think of this >>>/v/748022372 ?Do you think an art game is feasible? Are you interested in developing one?
>>581588536https://store.steampowered.com/app/582550/
In my game gays are prosecuted. That includes (You) the player
>>581588536play this.http://passage.toolness.org/
>>581588536All video games are already art. The art you're thinking of is fake and gay propaganda for the purposes of tax advantaged money laundering by god's chosen people.
>>581588536Tons of people are interested but it takes a lot of skill that most developers lack. It will sell if you can do it though. I'm not even speaking on the art side of things, but also trying to "convey emotion." Most games suck at that these days and attempting to convey emotion is often done with cheesy dialogue that doesn't really cut it.
>>581588846The mechanics stay the same throught the game and they don't convey emotions. The closest example of an art game that I can think of would be Journey, but it still doesn't offer change in mechanics as far as I remember
the emotions that games can convey are basically the same as sports can convey.
>>581590060cris. fuck off
It's almost as if sports are a form of... games!
>>581590060Incorrect. Name one sport that spooks like a spooky horror game? You can't.

>>581590710Not spooky.

>>581590528Do you even read history and shit like the roman colliseum killing slaves and burning christians and feeding them to predators?Mexicans used to have a sport where they killed the loser team.
>>581578143is this one of those jap retards that pretends to know what he's talking about? dumb fucks
>>581591330>roman colliseum […] burning christians and feeding them to predators?Literally made up by christschizos to boot up the persecution fetish/delusion that fuels their schizophrenia.
The residents have lost their way.
>>581591654Irrelevant.My point was that sports would be spooky if they tortured and killed the players.
sports were cool when they were merely training for soldiers.When it became about entertainment and spectacle, it was over
>>581591330That's an adrenaline rush like thriller horror, which you can also find in any current day sport with falling from heights but it's different from atmospheric spooky horror games that provides a cold kind of uneasiness. No sports provide this feeling.

>>581589268Holy uncslopMillennials were a mistake
>>581592016just like video games
>>581592030so what are spooky rollercoasters then?My point is that you need to have a wider range of IRL activites similar to games, like board games, roller coasters, interactive theater, pop up books, improv comedy, sports, VN, litrpg.Games have their range of emotions they excell.And claiming that they can't do XYZ is a gotcha, is like claiming that music sucks because It can't express lust or a painting.
>>581591786Can’t wait until people give me my own schizo name

>>581597001strong potential, art styles like this work surprisingly well on these platforms, my only suggestion would be to use more vocal narrations with on-screen captions and put the most interesting parts of the video at the beginningkeep working on this, study viral videos, analyze their channels to see what videos did well and which ones didn't, and keep experimentingit might be beneficial to make your videos shorter and focus more on immediately capturing attention, retention rates are higher this wayif you can afford to keep making these videos, i suggest you docheck out this guys channel to see a successful creator who makes similar contenthttps://www.youtube.com/@LowPolyShorts/shortsgood luck friend
>>581597001Hard to say whether it's worth continuing without knowing whether it helps with the game promotion. Maybe try for a bit and see if it works then decide whether to stop

>>581598997If this is another pedo game you should just stick to 16x16
>>581599065first try living as a homeless person for 48 hours and see how you like it

>>581599315Good suggestion. 48 hours at least gives you the experience of feeling dirty and unshowered for a while, what a pain in the ass it is to eat with no cooking supplies, etc.It doesn't fully capture the unending hunger and boredom feeling though.

>>581606491>>581606770Imagine a rugged old bar, where the lowest morons of the society hang around. They engage in shit flinging, blame everybody else but themselves, enjoy the company within their own echo chambers. Even though they are both mentally poor, and physically poor in terms of wealth. They blame the elites, race, gender, or the current generation.Would you willingly engage or try to understand any of them in real life? Obviously not, why engage with them on the internet? The guy is obviously a low life and will probably never create anything because he relies on his race to do it for him.
>the god texture has baked shading that makes it not seamlessfuaark
>>581600150Make a game in a popular genre. I targeted an underserved niche and built a game that is considered one of the best in it, but despite all the praise, it flops because niche be niching. Word of mouth may eventually make it a success here, but I won't count on it.
>>581604061Exactly.I’ve flopped things you people wouldn’t believe…hmm.Kickstarters flopping off the shoulders of Orion.I’ve watched YC companies flop near the Tannhauser Gate.All these flops will be lost in time…like platformers on Steam.
>>581608550Time to dev
GYATT ZAYUMNI really wonder how fucking brain fried troon retards who ruined melee are going to react to a game where you're forced to have a fair fight and you're not just attacking someone endlessly trying to get back up or get on the ledge or land or get out of stun/tumble and have to rely on constant flow rather than interrupting.
>>581608680you play as link don't you
>>581608680Smash Bros is a party game. I love the tripping mechanic in brawl
>>581608842Lonk, Yong Lonk, Marth, Roy, Falcon, Ganondorf and SheikNo chain grabbing spam or hiding while wave dash for me and even then I still think Sheik a little too OP like Fox and Falco whom I skip every time as well as Puff.
>>581609108its ALWAYS the link players complaining about tourney tacticsyour character is not viable bro, blame Samurai
>>581609021Nah it's based off Dragon King: The Fighting Game SAKVRAI immediately banned tournaments when he saw what they were doing to Melee which discourages all but the most sweaty of autists to play his game. He also threw out the tripping mechanic in desperation real quick due to his very busy schedule and didn't have time to come up with better methods like I did.
>>581608680I don't play smash but you sound like a retard that would get featured on @ScrubQuotesX
>>581609226Link is actually the best character in the game so long as you don't dash dance. His smash does epic levels of damage and I own foxlets regularly when I've had enough to drink to stand their bullshit. You can't hide and dash dance cause you'll get a projectile to the face. Link has fast attacks like spin attack, he mogs little foxslop shit like spamming nair and "shine". Fucking califaggot ruined melee right then and there. Lost Nintendo at least 6 million
>>581609336Will you have items?
The more you faggots engage with the mentally ill nodev, the more he keeps coming back. Please learn some self control.
>>581609512nah Link sucked in Soul Calibur 2 as well he's just no good for these types of games he's slow and plodding and relies on weapon gimmicks instead of proper swordplay like a real man (Marth)
>>581609362So you don't know wtf you're talking about then speak anyway? Shut up scrub.>>581609532Meh, who knows. Not really my concern at the moment, I never use them in smash, not as fun
>>581607892Own that shit my broski. Unpolished? Amateur? Nah, your game is deliberate schizokino.
>>581609689Link's swordplay mogs Marth's spammy little bullshit fairs and tilts at least. Link is only a "zoner" to fags who made up all this bullshit tournyslang slop. None of it is real, it's all entroonification if Chadkvrai's vision of Dragon King: The Fighting Game which I intend to uphold
>>581609642vaguepost harder
>>581609642He can be a yesdev now with AI. He'll be in the next demo day
>>581577296this.good games get found very quickly. there's no such thing as a "hidden gem" or whatever.
The only thing I like in smash is charging up the big punches with Captain falcon and littlemac.
Done.
>>581610106Is there more than one homeless druggie loser I can be talking about?>>581610263He's had AI for as long as anyone else has had, and yet he still has nothing but his delusions and his medication.
>>581610414Yeah that's the funnest part which is what I'm bringing back. The launch mechanics and air is completely ruined by spammy little jabcucks dash dancing/waves ashing and keeping it on the ground trying to get a zero to death instead of fight or counter or wind up better attacks. I'm so sick of fucking melee and can't wait to fight some real opponents for once
>>581610551>Is there more than one homeless druggie loser I can be talking about?fucking kek, that really made me laugh for some reason
Ew a soijack poster

You need 10k hours in something to become a master of it, how many hours of game dev do you have? If it is more than 10k hours you should have some actually good games to show.
>>581617913I wish I was retarded...
>>581618343I think I need 10k hours for each skill, 10k for art, 10k for programming, 10k for music, 10k for writing...

Marketing is fake and made up. Your game manifests the audience it deserves.
>>581623043I don't plan to ever put my game on sale so this doesn't matter for me.

I hope whoever decided that the button layout between Microsoft and Nintendo should be opposite day dies
All of the fake, uncreative, greedy, lazy "artists" are pissed off about AI because it can let people make their own art, so no one needs them to draw Sonic Fanart #18363292 or a character idea that they came up with. These "artists" have no ideas, no creativity, they just expect you to pay them because they learned how to moved a stylus by tracing pics of Sonic or whatever.
>>581627201Thankfully I made it all up

>>581628764Show me one good troon artist.
>>581627778Can you honestly call AI art your "own art" though?
>>581629039I don't really care that it's not my own art though? It's not like if I buy art for someone else it's suddenly mine either, like I get the rights to use it but I didn't create it either, so what's the difference?
>>581629039I'll just open it up in photoshop and add whatever scribbles necessary for it to pass your arbitrary boundaries of what counts as "my art".Movie production companies are already running scripts to change pixels on ai gens to legally count as a transformative work. This shit will always be gamed because its pointless and stupid.
>>581629039I can.
Quit my job some days ago and my back already hurts again from staying sat all day.

>>581630706good composer i do wish xhe would tone down the corny ahh anime voices tho'
>>581621084>tl:dr AI vibememed games are worse and more expensive than asset flips***for nowThis shit is pretty much inevitable. Everyone in this thread has a 2-3 year timer in order to "make it" before:-Game dev becomes exponentially cheaper, faster and easier, which will increase competition exponentially and lower the price of games.-Companies start to make an actually semi functional, bare bones, "prompt your own indie game of the day to play with friends" kind of service which will consume a considerably large amount of the indie and casual market.All jobs will eventually be consumed by this Lovecraftian technology. Music, art and coding have been "solved" to an extent by it, so it seems inevitable that the mix of them (games) is the next step. It might appear too complicated, currently, for it to actually happen, but it will. This technology is genuinely apocalyptic, and any society with individuals with who are right in their mind would have already destroyed it, along with its creators.
>>581631382I don't get how that works. Don't they just pay a yearly salary to some artist and they finish the assets pretty rapidly because they need to move onto many other assets?The last studio I worked at paid the artist like $75 an hour but they could finish multiple important character assets in less than a week.

>>581630784Nice game, I want to play multiplayer with someoneroom agdg by niggerdev
>>581632112No way. Those aren't "hero assets". Hero assets go through months of revisions. A top-tier salaried artist at a very efficient studio might be able to output a few each year, but the average art team at a AAA studio needs 4-8 different specialty artists (concept, design, modeling, painting, materials, rigging, animating, in-engine porting and testing, etc.) and a hundred different meetings to get a single model done.
