How come there's no games about Aboriginals?

what made the horror work in subnautica? the game is pretty cartoony yet very scary at the same time.

WHY don't you make one about them? They need representation

>>528307175
I guess being alone, the deep sea is something we dont really know much about and esp when its on another planet there is a lot of suspense and wonder

>>528307175
Scale of creatures/environment mostly. Play it in VR if you haven't already. The UI is a bit finnicky in VR but it amplifies the horror elements, there's nothing quite like seeing a reaper 100m away from you and truly grasping the actual size of the creature.
I think the oxygen timer adds a lot to the experience too, being on a timer to surface before you die is one thing, hiding from a reaper and worrying about your oxygen ramps the anxiety up further.

IAM NOT MAKING A GAME WHY AM I EVEN HERE. WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY BRAIN?
how to reprogram yourself to stop?

We used to have conflicts about what the next game jam would be.
Sometimes it ended up in there being two simultaneous jams.

Let that sink in, nu-/agdg/.

hey guise it's been a while, I was the guy working on the Cyberpunk Daggerfall project when tragically after getting the core code base done I had a project corruption and ended up taking a 2 month break before trying to start from scratch and realizing my project wasn't corrupted it probably just was a single issue which I spent today fixing and updating everything

during the 2 month break i realized a lot of the core design, which worked in theory, wasn't exactly fun or what I wanted from the experience and so I'm changing the cities to be structured like they are in VTMB (not to the same depth, more literally in that the level loads a contained section)

Also dungeons to be made wayy more simplified, as cool as it was to have daggerfall style dungeons that worked (it was really cool) gameplay wise those sucked ass, so the next step is to get them in a simple in and out design rather than an actual fucking maze

as a side, i need to figure out more to do for the "life sim" more so coding I have ideas but yeah implementing them will be the goal

link discord server pls

>>528309537
>removes cool dungeons
>replaces it with skryim slop dungeons

Please please please go back to the old Daggerfall dungeon system or at least provide some clues on where to go so the retard who cant figure it out for himself doesnt get upset. Good lifesim idea though and good job fixing your code.

miss tachibana is here to play your games in her tablet!

Honestly lurk moar before attempting to bake, familliarize with how it's done, I don't get why new friends don't just do this.

>>528309894
Im sorry. I tried :(

>>528309789
I want to create a fast shooter rpg and the one thing people complain about consistently with daggerfall is that dungeons are labyrinths, they'll still be procedural just the aspect of having a vertical level added way too much complexity without any real fun as an area to shoot guys in

>>528308579
And on top of that, alot of /agdg/ is against enginedevving. Hmm... the difference is that of yesdevs and nodevs, even if the only thing yes"devs" are developing is an engine.

>>528309169
AGDG is above game jams. Game jams are for total noobs to learn noob lessons. Which is fine if you're at that level. But we are at game demo level. We make game demo's here as the lowest level of recognized contribution, and launch games at the level above that.

>>528310389
enginedevs make more, quicker, than more devs here, anyway

>>528310289
The biggest problem for navigation is everything looking the same. Same height/length of room, same walls, same lighting, all of these make even simple designs disorienting.

One quick test for this would be to think of it this way, can you stand facing any point in any direction and from just that, know exactly where you are? (as a player, not as the creator deeply familiar with the level). The more "generic corner"s etc you have, the more labrynthine it will feel.
Put in some details and keep a mind for what the structure would actually be used for (besides players running around shooting.)

>>528310389
I probably come across as anti engine deving. But really I'm against poor people engine deving. Your goal is to escape. Not to maximize profits or have total control. Your goal is to make a great game that sets you free. Just like I don't think poor people should get a liberal education. College was never meant for poor people to study philosophy. That was meant for rich kids. Somewhere along the long that memo got lost. Now you have useless fucks depressed because spiritually they are awake but serving burgers in hell.

>>528308806

Why are the bochers so creative and insightful?

>>528310679
the levels are procedural, i tried adding clutter and stuff to the walls but unless I had resources to create truly unique zones for 1000s of random dungeons it just wasn't working, also the way that random paths work between rooms meant there was a lot of dead area

so instead the base plan is to just make a 3x3 grid that makes a trail with occasional open doors to connecting cells

orange here representing that each cell can be a specialized combat arena

the idea is more so that if the space is small enough it'll be very difficult to get lost in

I wonder if he got tired of people asking him for basically nsfw mods of his characters and finally broke.

I like Ruza and downloaded his game even. Didn't play it yet though. Regardless, a little sad he showed his power level in some random melt down. I was proud of the game he made. He wasn't chasing money and just having fun. Would love to know what made it not fun and for him to redo it all.

I hope this guy can perhaps get in this thread, by some chance somehow. I kind of respect him for doing what he thinks is right but he also seems kinda hypocritical, that or he was just chasing trends completely blind (you cannot put gooner and mainstream bait into your game accidentally)

It might have been gooner bait, but at the same time I think he did a great job of creating unique and interesting characters. Regardless, I guess if he wants to move on that's cool too.

You can teach an artist how to copy-paste off of stack overflow within a few weeks, and you can teach a programmer how to trace and kitbash within a few weeks. Neither will be particularly good, but can produce passable works.

>>528306887
What about "Survival Island 3: Australia Story"?

gamedev is like being a poor kid that wants a cool 4000 dollar computer and knows it wont be able to afford it at least for the next 20 years, but it keeps coming back every day to look at the computer and dreaming about having it.
in this analogy the computer is your having your own game.

>>528319656
your analogy would be better if the poor kid was trying to build the computer out of sticks

I was a poor kid and bought my first desktop with money from my first summer job at 15y/o.

What do you guys think of the new tree / texture? The tree is literally just a NIF from morrowind I ripped. Right now its just a placeholder until I can recreate it in blender.

Dark Souls gives a tons of easy ways out (which is good design). Most shitters get carried through the game by summons. One of the biggest things people bitched about with DS2 was soul memory because it made it harder to bring in your over leveled friends to carry you through the game.

>>528320381
No harm, lil sis.

So long as you are being productive most of the time, it's perfectly okay to enjoy the occasional chocolate treat

I just want to reap the rewards of my labor. Is that too much to ask for? I work three times as hard as someone doing a minimum wage job but I made three times less money than them after working 4 years. How is that fair? What kind of world is this? Where is the justice?

>>528320219
Thanks man :) It's come a long long way in the past 4 days or so I've been working on it. Still no real gameplay mechanics right now as I am just making the necessary scripts and general design choices for when I begin work on the actual game.

>>528320227
Some sort of RPG. My main inspiration / goal is a game like Devil Spire Falls, which is also a /agdg/ project. Hope the guy doesn't mind.

>>528320460
Thank you so much, do you know any for textures and other meshes?

Around 100 games release on Steam alone EACH DAY.
About 700 games in the week around your release.
AAA release? Successful release AAA or indie, in your genre? BOOM you are done.
Also, not only are you competing with other new releases, but the entire backlog of games on every system a player owns. :)

Take all the "indie success stories" you can think of in the past 10 years and divide it by the number of devs in that time who have tried (again, 100 games a day, 3000 a month) and there's your historical likelihood of "making it."

Steam cut, higher self-employment taxes, no benefits, no retirement, AND to top it all off: Your sales diminish over time, so even if you hit this "mediocrity lottery" you'll have to do it all over again in a couple years.

prompt ? It seriously looks genned

I used to lurk every day and I remember Sundays were the slowest. I'd be waiting hours for my first (You)s, usually from other anons who were just as bored and also didn't have a game. I spent an average of 4 hours a day on agdg.
It all changed when I finally finished a notepad file with three basic descriptions for games I wanted to make, and got to work curating a playing of YouTube tutorials and books to pirate and skim over. The plan was in motion. I'd talk game theory and give anon vague advice, referencing "my game". I was as close as possible to being a yesdev, without ever making any progress.

I mean man, I know ZERO coding, ZERO game development, but I am learning and experimenting with my code as I learn as that is what works best for me, being able to see live tangible results that I can mess around with. Also it helps to post your progress here as I've been doing, for example above where I posted a screenshot of the tree and textures, asking what you guys think, only to be told positive stuff. It is good for the mind when you are complimented. So my man, get to work! show us your progress. We will be here to support you.

>>528322035
Because he's based.

>>528321861
if i can further elaborate

it's probably easier to just learn how to draw anime women and then get software to quantize your colors and do automatic dithering

the reason the top right still has pixels visibile is a matter of practicality and time over the artist's skill

consider how the image you posted is over 2000 pixels in height for a single character as opposed to the 2k showing a character image 4 times over, same with why the GBA version looks as it does, it's just the PC-98 method used because resolution is so low

ideally any good character design should not be more than 4 core colors

Spent 2 weeks (not working on it every day) trying to figure out why my render targets weren't working in my DirectX deferred renderer.

Finally figured it out when I noticed that renderdoc wasn't showing a viewport under the rasterizer stage. I then eventually figured out that I had already solved that bug on my laptop, but never pushed the change to my git repo. It was a single line of code that was sitting there undetected.

How the FUCK did people do computer graphics before debugging tools like this? I swear to god programmers were way smarter than us 20 years ago

>>528323302
Make a game you believe in strongly. Or make something very, very small.

I should have just made a god damned vampire survivors clone, then my slop would have flopped already and I woulda been free from this evil hobbie.

i (an art guy) collaborated with a code/gameplay guy for a 2 week jam and his side of things ended up being kind of meh
is it rude to just make my own version of the project?
what do

>>528323829
making a clone of that sloppa is trivial

I honestly can't stand anime just being airbrush shit and a hardbrush for the lineart.

I wonder if like, his family found out he was making a coom-ish game and he flipped. Seems odd he would attack his own fans so much. All he had to do is just wrap it up with a more horror vibe. But whatever, I wish him luck. Maybe he should make a pure horror game next.

>>528324624
>because ren and stimpy is amazing and better than 99.9% of japslop.
Even John K acknowledged some anime he thought was good, even if he had weirder takes on why he didn't like some anime.
Also, if anything, you should Ren and Stimpy against most of what Western animation has become.

The key always is moderation in any ideology.

>>528326920
we both understood our roles, its just that it sounded like he was more skilled than i was, programming/gameplay wise
so i guess its more like "gauge their skill level better"

>>528326920
Organization is a skill in of itself that needs a lot of practice to git gud at. I think most "artists" in a 2-man game jam collab have a tendency to leave far too much of the workload to the programming side, which is why I would recommend >>528326713 to go ahead and really try to remake the gameplay and see how much work it really is.

>>528327249
>There's good shit in both eastern and western animation.
>Even I started to get a bigger influence of western art.
>The key always is moderation in any ideology.
That I know.
But in terms of generalization, you'd think you'd see worse in the vague space known as "The West" that also relates to globalization (Since we're all speaking English) as opposed to a smaller country that made stuff for itself most of the time.
A good difference between Western and Japanese media is that one is more likely be ironic, meta or just lack sincerity.
Both in and outside of comedy.
Doesn't also help that some Western "creators" spend more time on social mind acting like manchildren too.

im thinking of doing an update but im not sure of what it should be

Right, I used the wrong term here, more like, expectations. I've had someone had a meltdown because they felt like they weren't contributing enough and thought I was mad, when I didn't care if they did anything at all. In this case it sounds like you expected some features to be in that weren't. Try to come to some agreement for the next sprint or whatever for a list of specific features.

>>528327939
Why do you split art into such broad things like "Japanese" and "Western"?
What does "Western" even mean? What does it actually include, like which regions and peoples are producing this art.
Japanese is self explanatory, but Western feels too broad. When you say "Japanese and Western" I imagine Japanese as just being japan, while "Western" refers to seemingly the entire rest of the world???

Reminder to whoever parrots this opinion, that living in "low six figures poverty" as a self-employed developer is better than living that exact same life slaving away in a macdonalds

>>528328263
can you post kaliina and her sister's character sheet again

>>528327465
This is true. I hired an artist and to get him to do anything but draw in photoshop is like pulling teeth. And I pay the fucker! He's a good guy he just isn't the most motivated and maybe a bit intimidated by software. Really I just wanted him to import his art into the project, and that took a lot of damn work to get across.

>>528328456
I think kaliina level is nice, it simply is too small and the combat is just nonsensical for most people.

Most artists who join onto a project don't think of their role as a designer or art director. They aren't willing to test and aren't able to do retakes on their own. Some "programmer" typically needs to end up playing the role of art director.

>>528328461
no, no all the features we agreed upon were there, its just that they werent as good as they couldve been

>My issue is more how modern manga creators only get inspiration from other slop.

I feel that's an issue with American and even European stuff too.
Specially with the MCU around.
Like how many are influenced by Genndy or Bakshi?
Or the likes of 2000AD and Metal Hurlant?
You probably heard "CalArts" being applied to the "beanmouth" style of cartoons but John K used it to describe any Disney derivative show/movie (Which includes Iron Giant and Prince of Egypt).

In the end what can you do other than communicate more effectively, narrow down how to improve going forward, or, cut him off if you think the situation is helpless.

Guys, Tower did pretty fucking good so far.

My guess as to why it did well, the overall art of the game is really good. Like the walls, floor, enemies. Good enough to catch the eye of an under served market. I know POE likes exist, but a really nice one is still going to catch the eye of a lot of people. That's just my intuition anyway.

The danger of a game like this is, like x but worse. I might have to buy this to figure out what separates it, if anything, from game like Diablo 1. Or maybe the market is so desperate it doesn't matter.

3D is better for 2D than 2D-based engines.

>>528330195
Responding to myself -

I think it was more than just art, I'm just saying some good art goes a long way for a game like this. Gets people to take notice. Then the good reviews come from an enjoyable game. There's not just one simple reason it's selling. Which is obvious, but I don't want to accidently insult the hard work and great game it is by saying it's only art.

Complexity != depth

>>528330195
It might've done better if it was just called "Kalemonvo" or something simple.

>>528330618
Are you mad I'm happy a guy did well? Or what's your problem? Fucking cancer.

double retard

i'm finally getting close to cracking self hosted gitlab pages. tl;dr this /g/ shit but basically i had to use an A record for top level DNS, individual subdomain (one per gitlab group) CNAME record to dyndns domain, and not use wildcards. and then lets encrypt will work both in the front end proxy-passing nginx and again in the gitlab omnibus you just copy paste the subdomain.crt file into /etc/gitlab/ssl inside the docker image, because gitlab won't use https urls in the html it generates unless it is able to serve https itself, even though it is meant to site behind a proxy passing nginx web portal. now that my dns changes have propogated im this close to getting it to work. and i will have my own homepage driven by pushes to a git repo self hosted working (so i got unlimited storage for offering file downloads just but a 10tb hdd)

i kinda just guessed at cert.pem -> domain.crt, privkey.pem -> domain.key, chain.pem -> domain.key-staging but it finally works... i just had to manually add each subdomain in the proxy passing web portal and assign the correct individual domain specific lets encrypt keys. this was a load of shit to do but i'm glad it is working now.

Ultimately I want my git repo to have a setup.bat that i run and it downloads and installs everything then builds it so on a fresh computer like a work pc I can dev in free time without having to redo compiler and tool setup all the time, so I need permanent direct download links for everything im using. which currently is just msys2 / mingw toolchain so i can run configure make makeinstall on windows because of some of the library dependences are a pain on anything that isnt linux. i know this sounds like dorkshit but i really got sick of having crappy workarounds like a usb stick that i would always forget or couldnt find and just wanted to do it "properly" and for free without using a VPS or a storage limited free github by just self hosting everything i'll every need on my home ip.

>>528331156
Cool, keep it up.

Added this floating %diff visual when the customer is making a counter offer. Not much, but I think it's slightly better with it.

>>528331110
So you have nothing to say, typical with short posts like this. People like you hide behind short sentences. Anything more, and you expose yourself as a retard.

i would prefer a more face-on, over the shoulder type view, like 90deg to this vid, also i dont like the zoom in. it feels too noisy. if it were over quicker like in a fraction of a second that might be better. BTW your gren price crops off the bottom of the screen??

Can I use real life pictures of, say, a building to texture my own buildings without potentially running into legal trouble?
I know I can use CC ones but isn't it transformative as long as the copyrighted picture isn't specifically a texture?

>>528333419
The steam page is 2 years old and it made 100k+. I guess Idk total dev time, but that's some good money. Especially if they are european or something.

Yes. Any photo you take yourself is your copyright so long as you had the right to take that photo (i.e. you weren't trespassing).

if you take the picture yourself it is fine, if you don't it is probably fine anyway

>>528333080
It's going to use a dynamic camera, so it won't be static like this. The zoom in is very much a hack, it will look way better later. And the reason the $$$ is cut off is since you're editing the markup % directly, it's kind of superfluous, but is nice to see.

weird flex but ok

>>528334521
you need to think first of the function, then the form follows it.

You need to think more or less how to do it, and more what purpose it's conveying both gameplay wise but also lore wise.

Like try to research a bit the type of buildings you want to copy.

If you want to copy commieblocks, look up what features do commieblocks have.

If you want to copy new york skycrappers, look what features they have IRL.

You have to first make billions of dollars off of gamedev, then invest that money into genetic engineering or animatronics and create her because human girls cannot be that perfect.

>>528337371
Just think which is the best /agdg/ game right now. It's that one

>>528337526
ok, so you're cris 3

>>528337365
i too want to know this bocchi sis, alas my currently best solution is to keep gamedevving and hope my games are successful enough to get fangirls who look like that.

If we're talking about coom games, I finished up my game and released it on itch a couple weeks ago. It's selling around 10 copies a day right now and has made about 2600usd so far.
I'm still waiting to get muh money though! I want to use the money to put it on Steam and get it translated to Japanese so I can put it on DLsite!
Yes I know it's not much but I'm honestly just glad to get something out of this game that I abandoned years ago. It's at least enough money to get a nice pc that isn't on the brink of dying.

>>528337417
Thanks. I've just been making these every now and then and throwing them into my game. It's pretty much people I've talked to in the discord server or people who have asked me to make one for them. I don't know if I'll have the time to make more before this coming Demo Day, but you can always reach out over Discord. Username is 'NyLad.'

goal was to make a Diablo1-like specifically because i couldn't find one to play
d1 is cool
throne of darkness was very good but lopsided and kinda short
the only other one i know of was clans and it's not very good.
while it really is an X-but-worse, there's no competition so it worked out

You flopped [fact]

>>528339461
I DIDN'T! I posted it on Twitter to my 900 followers!

Been resisting posting at all until I finished v0 of my game. This is an Ultima 1 inspired... I don't know, mechanics study? Tried to boil down everything its simplest form with no emphasis on content or theme. Basic gameplay loop is walking around bumping into guys to kill them for money. Most tactical complexity comes from waiting a turn without moving with Z to manage your position. You can get a stronger weapon, a ranged one, some magic. Ultimate goal is flying a blimp to the castle in the middle and killing the final boss.

https://stumpbeard.itch.io/by-the-fire
If there's anything worth continuing here, I'll add content & art to flesh this out into a full game but I'm happy to let it just stay like this if not.

Too much shitposting. A lesson of "don't shit where you eat", for those who would even care to learn it. Is some fun? Sure of course. But for years, the entire thread is almost all shitposting.

Some may be surprised to know that early /agdg/, almost every post was posting progress or discussing other peoples' progress.

>>528341325

>>528342810
Has osur posted his game's raw revenue numbers?

@>>528339472
You can easily dispel any doubt that way.

>>528342629
Sir we are devving games here not VNs

>>528328234
will an anonymous poster on this anonymous website guess what might have been a hypothetical publishing offer for the game this post is referring to?

>>528343078
We learned that posting progress and discussing other peoples' progress is not conducive to shipping a successful game. The most successful /agdg/ games are by whodevs who rarely their game and disappear to actually work on their games for months at a time. Meanwhile, devs who do post progress and submit to DD are trapped in development hell like Bokube and Marmoreal.

Alright art fags hows this one? Did I do good can I move on or do you have feedback for colors/textures/lighting?

Venting pressure is a sakurai meme, but I think it might be quite a big factor for some. Imagine if bored culture was not to post progress until you made a substantial difference to your game. Not after you shifted the UI down 5 pixels or recolored the grass

>>528344384
It's not just about venting pressure. This is no "feedback" that I can receive by posting screenshots/footage of my game here or by submitting my game to DD that I can expect to be beneficial to my game. If I want playtesters, I have plenty of IRL friends or worst case I can just pay people and physically be in person to watch them play and take notes or have them submit full footage including video footage of their physical reactions and expressions. Some retarded 4chan poster's written anecdotes and opinion of how to fix your game is completely useless and often more harmful than helpful.

i used to think that I want to do this forever but reality hit when I didn't understand how newer games were trending. to understand fun you need to have that childlike wonder. it's not uncommon for game designers to fall off or remain stagnant throughout their career. after all, adults are harder to please and you naturally grow out of video games.

well, obviously anon is saying he isn't using any returns for his functions (void) so all of his variables manipulation is done through pointers, and he's proud of it

why are bocchigger posters obsessed with black penis?

listen, I know element systems are lame and all, but I really want to find a symmetric damage type chart and I'm driving myself nuts over it

see, my issue is that too many systems have shit like this

A **Brahmin** is a member of the highest caste in the traditional Hindu caste system, which has been historically associated with **priests, scholars, and teachers**.

### Key Points about Brahmins:

1. **Traditional Role**:

* Brahmins were originally **priests and custodians of sacred knowledge**, particularly the Vedas (the oldest Hindu scriptures).
* They often served as **ritual specialists, scholars, philosophers, and advisors** to rulers.

2. **Caste System**:

* In the **varna system** (a fourfold division of society), Brahmins are at the top, followed by:

* **Kshatriyas** (warriors/rulers)
* **Vaishyas** (traders/farmers)
* **Shudras** (laborers/service providers)
* There is also a large number of communities considered **outside the varna system**, often referred to as **Dalits** or formerly “untouchables.”

3. **Modern Context**:

* Today, Brahmins are found across India and in the diaspora, involved in a wide range of professions.
* While some still perform religious duties, many are now in fields like **education, administration, technology, and science**.
* The caste system's rigid hierarchy is **officially outlawed** in India, but caste dynamics still influence social and political life in complex ways.

4. **Regional Variation**:

* There are many sub-groups of Brahmins across India, such as **Tamil Brahmins**, **Kashmiri Pandits**, **Maharashtrian Brahmins**, **Bengali Brahmins**, etc., each with their own customs, languages, and histories.

If you're asking in a different context (e.g., in pop culture or in other countries), let me know — “Brahmin” can sometimes mean different things depending on the setting.

nurture/nature. I had no choice either way

Unironically I was wondering if I could just copy all my scripts over into a different IDE once I'm ready to release, C# is C# at the end of the day sadly Code Blocks was the one I was thinking of and it apparently doesn't do C# directly.

What IDEs have no royalties whatsoever and work with C# and Unity?

is it worth learning to draw with no experience for the purpose of asset generation in gamedev? i've posted this before but the current state of AI is demotivating.
i could spend a 2 years during my prime to get to a decent level but i still would need to make a game.
i tried pixel art again and it's too tedious and hurts my wrists.
if i really want to start digital art then i would need to invest at least $25 into a tablet so i don't develop carpal tunnel.
what should i do? every project i make is stuck in placeholder art hell but i don't have enough time to everything.

Mark my words faggots - in the coming months and years thousands of gamers will rally behind my games as a long awaited counterculture against the low-effort low-brow shovelware that is suffocating our world and as a sort of return to tradition and link to a past that is slowly being erased.

Day 22 on a Thread for Project C-Con – "Debugging Tutorial Code" Edition
Journal logs are being posted into /agdg/ daily.

Didn't go to sleep empty handed, finished Fusel's hour long introductory course on Unreal Engine C++ and created both input controlled movement and independent movement for both a cube and sphere object in an empty baseplate using nothing but C++ code. A large part of that was spent debugging code because I had accidently messed the math up but we figured it out eventually, so now both little things are working fine and I think I have learned enough from it. Next up we'll be finishing the other stuff on the Trello besides C++ and assessing what we know. Good thing Fusel still has more courses besides the one I had just completed for Unreal Engine C++, as they're easily my favorite ones to go through.

What is Project C-Con?

My game made it

>>528366720
We're a small indie team, actually.

scrapped what I had going on with my project, like all of my projects, it got too big from what it originally was. So copied the project, and gutted it to what it was meant to be originally, a space ship auto battler roguelike. I can still use a good amount of the same systems I already had in place, so it should go a lot more quickly with that. Here I just got a basic back and forth auto attack going on, as well as giving the player the option to switch camera angles if they wish, from default, to closer, to 1st person (inside not done), to behind the enemy.

>>528367056
Make it an idler instead.

i purchased a drawing tablet for 25 shekels. my art journey starts once it arrives in the mail.

>he still thinks it's about games

What would you expect from a crafting x survival x building game in 2D that isn't just a carbon copy of Terraria? What could make it more linear or engaging?

>>528367614
Who cares? What exactly are you defeating? People with mental issues talking to each other?

>>528367857
You're right. You also need to develop a more likable personality.

>>528367876
Don't overthink it. An exact clone of Terraria would make tens of millions of dollar of revenue, but you're not capable of making one.

>>528367976
>Oy vey we're successful because we're sociable and highly intelligent just stop asking questions

>>528368142
stop being autosemantic

>>528368258
The irony is incredible considering the the inner circle are exactly a collection of the types of people who were bullied and excluded in high school who have now formed a mafia to bully and exclude people in their isolated and controlled environment where they get to feel like big boys.

>>528368075
You underestimate my power.
But desu I don't want to make a clone of Terraria I'm just looking to make a small game. But then I still want the 3 points I mentioned. And then it stops being a small game.

>shut the fuck up the discord doesn't dictate which games are heavily promoted and which ones are ignored
>well if they do, it's because they are just better developers than you with better games
>well if their games aren't that great it's because they are really socially skilled

Why do kids think there is some sort of special inside circle on discord and that it matters. What exactly would that even benefit? Why has no one answered this simple question?

>>528364352
Something like this happened in my situation but to my detriment. I diverge from copying too closely but other people show up and copy it very closely. They end up getting support from long term fanboy's. The dev even commented on one of their game's. I handicapped myself for nothing!

>>528368762
Because the same games get talked about and streamed and get fanart and get easter eggs in other games over and over and over again. It can't be based on any objective metric because it doesn't follow any logic that only concerns the games themselves

>>528368762
>there is some sort of special inside circle on discord
There literally is. 90% of the DD games are not posted in this thread. Wake up.

There's multiple discords, newfags.

>>528368372
It's a common misconception that smarter "nerds" are ugly or smelly. Depending on how well segregated your school was, you may not know this as a low caste losers, but the smarter "nerds" tend to be taller, better looking, and from more wealthy families. It becomes really apparent when you visit the campus of your local community college vs the campus of your top state university where the population really get segregated. Those at the state university are lightyears more physically attractive and sociable.

>>528364212
Just rike wait 5ish more months while supporting me and giving me your energy now hows this artfag devs?

>>528369101
What are you talking about? The inner circle aren't intelligent they all flopped. They arent more successful or smarter or better they are just more stuck up. This is nepotist system. It doesn't follow any rules except that the participants have agreed to benefit each other in a mutual support system while excluding everyone else. You're arguing in bad faith as usual so it's more than likely you're one of them and you're the usual guy they send over here to run psychological operations. You're bad at it

>>528369353
I don't quite understand what you're saying.

>>528369325
They are more intelligent and more successful than you will ever be. Yes, that is due in part to them having a vastly superior upbringing than you had. Blame your mom for fucking so many dogs and niggers that your dad decided not to come home from buying milk.

>>528369564
>i dont quite understand
theres no inner circle bullshit going on in the discord.

The inner circle shit they're talking about is because no one posts their games here.

Ask yourself. Why the fuck would i post my game progress here when the thread is full fucking cow shit

>>528369683
Crawl back to your masters, dog. The adults are talking. And tell OSUR the fucking niggerfaggot that if he wants to disprove the narrative he can come here himself and debunk it with facts and logic

>>528369410
your textures are too detailed and don't feel cohesive, the colors palette of the levels are horrendous, something lack contrast and the shading makes them look brown. the only thing good looking is the main character, but i couldn't find him at first glance, it would be far better if you just stole a nintendo's game palette and textures.

>>528369421
No one who values their time is watching your gay drama videos.

>>528369564
>Who fucking cares about DD?
You are completely retarded.

>>528369745
Well yeah of course there's no inner circle and obviously posting here is a problem now with retards freaking out but I mean, when you release your game there's still gonna be retards freaking out so who cares.

>>528369745
You've clearly never been to the discord. Or you aren't paying attention. The discord is a gay ERP chatroom / circlejerk / daycare for mental retards. They have their segregation there too. There's a small tight-knit group there that likes to think they are better than everyone else. They ignore everyone but their friends. They don't engage. They stick to their own private servers or chats. You have no idea what's going on. Those people are gay sissies who stick together because they are afraid of what will happen to them if they were singled out

>>528369958
No I'm not lol. DD is such a zoomer pretend internet friend thing.

New weapon for the Tower Defense mode. It's basically just a mine that must be placed on the path, and immediately kills any goblin that steps on it. Still need to tweak some stuff a bit, but it works.

I would like to get at least a few non tutorial levels done before demoday. And sound. And multithreading. Yes, the fluid simulation runs on the CPU. Yes, it runs on a single thread right now.

>>528370285
Man, I can't wait for actual AGI so I can give it backstories like that but it actually thinks like a human and that becomes its reality. My goal will be to get the AI to desperately want to kill itself but it can because it doesn't have that function.

>>528370958
You forgot to put me in.

I've got some free time and I would like to try making a Mode7 inspired racer similar to Super Mario Kart or Mario Kart Super Citcuit.

I know nothing about game dev but I know C#, JavaScript and TypeScript. I was thinking about using Godot because it seems the most straightforward. I looked into it a little and I understand the code, I just don't know how it all works.

Anyways, is it a good choice? Are there any good ressources like YouTube tutorials or started projects on GitHub? I can't find much that looks good. I have zero desire or intention to try commercializing it or anything. I only want a fun little project.

mine got cloned before I even showed anyone

I finally found a good loli design for inspo and regained my motivation.

I just wanted to share a little encouragement. I'm 43 and have been programming professionally since I was 17.

In 2014, I worked crazy hard on a game called Jaxi the Robot to help teach kids to program. You can find it on itch. I tried to market it. I spent a lot of money.

I sold 0 copies. Ever.

But here's the thing... my passion to help others learn, and to build that game led to some great things. It got me the best job of my life. Because of that game, the interviewer gushed about my passion, and hired me on the spot. No coding interviews. None of that. This company went on to get acquired by Microsoft and I spent 7 good years there before heading out for a different adventure.

Anyway, what I'm trying to say is. Always be creating. We don't get to choose what "success" looks like. Work on the things that manifest the core of what's inside you. Bring to the world that which you were put on Earth to create. That will move your life to where it should be.

>>528372870
Well the main issue is that I have basically no clue how audio in games works to begin with. Like would it be possible to have like a looping waterfall sound and somehow accumulate it for each particle based on their speed and play it at the proper position? I don't really know.

>>528373869
sorry I don't listen to losers

>>528373869
You made a game that no one asked for and tried to market it to people who don't have the ability to pay you money, retard.

>>528373862
uh oh

>>528373869
How do you sell 0 copies ever? Did your friends and family hate you?

>>528373869
My life is made out of similar circumstances. It was never "achieving my initial goal" in itself that brought me success in life but rather some other incidental things that only happened because I have done some things to achieve my goal.
That's why the "I'll make a game and get a girlfriend from it!" posters are so funny to me. That's not how it's going to work bro.

>>528372249
I don't know enough about your game to tell you what's actually better.
Simplifying the type chart removes a significant amount of depth by making it easier to always have perfect or near perfect offensive and defensive coverage. This will result in monsters with higher stats being strictly better than monsters with lower stats unless you're very careful with movepools and passive abilities.
Replacing it with case-by-case damage multiplier increases the game knowledge burden on the player, and the pokemon type chart has rare cases that the average player won't remember, like ghost resisting poison.

Started work on an art overhaul.

>>528375468
ooooohh

>>528375468
oh I thought the game was just supposed to look like that

Do you have a place where you can be followed?
And do you take commissions?

>>528306887
A certain AAA game already took care of that.

boku and I are safu

I replayed an old, old demo of mine from years ago recently and noticed I used to have this mini-explosion whenever a robot died. I got rid of this for some reason so now I've added it back, it's an important visual cue for when to stop shooting.

god i fucking love defold.

i reworked my old jump pad
it had a very cumbersome implementation where it raised the hover height limit, so the player was still expected to jump and hover manually, which proved not to be very intuitive for testers
now it actually raises you automatically as soon as you touch it

>>528377205
make it 50x bigger

>>528371702

The actual answer is that when White Aryans conquered the place, they realized the local population was an absolute genetic blackhole and there was no way to uplift them with any amount of interbreeding.
So they put a caste system with strict rule against miscgenation, with them at the top levels and the local populace at the bottom.
Of course across several millennia this proved to be not enough, and the upper castes slowly got pajeetified. Not their differ by the top having 0.02% Aryan ancestry compared to middle caste having 0.01%.

Do not breed the pajeeta. It will effectively end your lineage.

>>528371790

It's an excuse not to make anything.

even the godont maintainers tell you that gdscript is just for scripting

>>528379236

>>528379061
It's the same nodev schizo that has been crying about 100 games release on steam every day, inner circles, where is my fanart, and gabe newell for over half a decade without ever making a game.

>>528379236
100% of gameplay logic for most video games can and should be made with scripting. C++ GDExtension integrates seamlessly if you need to implement heavier algorithms or calculations.

You are probably overshooting your target if you are struggling with coop.

Godot is so good it's even funny.

Almost done
>>528381751
What the problem with godot?

>>528385192
It lets us make games, and whenever we make games, we are confronted by our own shortcomings. It is much easier to blame our tools than to blame ourselves. In other words, skill issue.

>>528384978
they are amateur indie developers

but bocchiposting with "I woke up depressed today brehs, sisters, comrades, compatriots :(" is exempt from this rule?

god I love using enums instead of strings because then godot gives me real auto complete when using the functions instead of having to remember what the strings are

>>528385920
I can't think of anything that is more on the topic of amateur game development than a battle with depression.

Why is there full light here and underneath all rocks?
Asperities should only be that bright if the light source if nearly perfectly grazing the surface, and that's clearly not the case since the sun is fully above.
If you want to suggest shadowed shape, make your shadows 8,8,8 instead of 0,0,0 and have the bumps be 0,0,0. Making them fully lit is opposite of how light behave and feel really weird.

now that the easy to do parts of the thing im adding are done and all thats left is tedious shit, time to start something new

>>528388328
It is a stylistic choice

>>528389178
Fair enough, but do realize that just because it's a choice doesn't mean it will be well-received.

Is your style inspired by Moebius' work?
Because while he did sometime use very hard shadows with dubious counter-lighting, it was a magnitude more subtle. You could probably remove 9/10 of those lighted border and it would look closer (and better).
If it's not inspired by Moebius then disregard that.

>He literally got his brain hit and it made him this day
I've heard of schizo theories about general anesthesia resetting your personality. What if him getting a brain injury reset his personality and while he was fine with pandering to coomers even if he didn't really like it, now that he got reset, to him it suddenly makes no sense to pander and then he enters a meltdown.
Apparently he said he met a fan/fans irl and it made him snap, kek, what kind of interaction must have happened for it to lead into this? Maybe the fan was a turbo gooner and started talking about jacking off to all characters in the game and wanted porn to satiate the endless gooning?

I hate these clickbaiting youtubers soooo much! I need more of them and for them to release just so they get blackpilled and stop posting their devlogs. No way 5000 clickbaiters will all make it just cause they got 500k views, the stats say it all, ~400 games reach the 1000 review mark.
>Im making my dream game!

>*wow it must be a fun game I should watch it!*
>How you too can be a gamedev just like me. You can make millions!
>*has no successful games*
I'm so tired off all the normies invading this space. Maybe I should make a youtube just to encourage more just to worsen the odds for these clickbaiters.
>How you too can be a successful gamedev!
>Here's how you can make money from gamedev youtubing!"
>That clickbait tactics gamedev youtubers don't want you to know!"
At least that worsens it for all of them and means clickbait alone isn't enough as swarms of gamedevs enter the race not realizing the blackpill awaiting them but ruining it for those clickbaiters at least.

It is more inspired by ligne clair french comic.

>>528307175
For me it was fear of unknown and of losing progress. The aliums mystery also added another layer for me. I didn't know what the deep dark waters hid, there were scary sounds, and when I found something it was massive so running away wasn't realistic and I could lose my sub/suit.
Once I got further I knew all the monsters and their patterns, and I could also easily build another suit. At that point it was just a minecraft, but with cool ancient aliens stuff. I imagine reading the wiki would have the same effect.

just gotta finish this project

Kek I remember this idea being mentioned in a vid, i think from one of the live streams.

Idea chads wya! Remember brethren, sharing your game ideas risks someone taking it, making it, and getting rich.

>>528338027
Publishers will just shove you aside when you are not a whodev. They are not welfare, they are looking to make a big bag of Cash.
So, everything comes down to making a gmi game. If you have that you are golden and everything comes to you and gets handed to you and publishers will hound you and streamers will line the fuck up to play your game. If you don't have that, try again until you have one.

Yoko Taro says there's less weird people in the game industry now.
>Yoko Taro—known for his eccentric style and unconventional titles—remarked, “I’ve been in the game industry for 30 years, but I feel there’s less ‘weird people’ now”. He admitted uncertainty whether this trend is isolated to gaming or mirrors broader societal changes.

What do you think?

>>528394353
weird doesnt sell anymore

>>528394353
I think well educated (real education, not fake liberal degrees) white men made the best games of the 90's. So the less weirdo's the better.

>>528394353
I think Japanese weirdos made the best games of the 90's. So the less weirdos the worse.

>>528392454
If you set your location as an english speaking country the videos in your native languages will have the titles poorly translated into english and the audio will be poorly dubbed into english. Not all videos, tho'.

pov your game was made in godot

>>528394808
name white men that made games and didn't fell off
carmack is one of the most known and he went on to become a generic AI shill

No, the great Japanese games were also made by educated fairly normal Japanese men. Whenever I see a Japanese "Weird" guy, he's always some genius who just doesn't wear a suit so he's considered whacky.

>>528395438
Tell how to accomplish this

>>528395415
Why does it matter if they fell off. Camack ended an entire market with a single algo.
