Do your research.
Be mindful of how you depict trains in your game.
I step away for 5 minutes and all hell broke loose? what did I miss?

Should I make a game that will take probably 1 year and has a decent chance of making it. Or spend 3-4 years on a game with, in my mind, near 100% chance of making it. But would require me quitting my job.
One game being similar in ways to Hearts of Iron. The other being in some ways like a 2d AARPG. Aspects of Oblivion, some aspects of other genres. NPC AI will be a big part of it.
>>529657796You have some idea how the market will be in 2026.
You have basically no idea how the market will be in 2029.
For that reason I always recommend a smaller project.

>>529657796the markets change so quick your 4 years game(admit it, it would balloon to 7 years) might land in a world where nobody wants it.

>>529657507do you ever secretly hope that autists are going to comb over your game looking for details like this to ask you extremely niche questions and nerd out about your game? Is all this not just some elaborate search for validation? The hope that somebody somewhere will care about your thoughts and ideas?
Brochachos i need a small game idea? i've worked on and cancelled multiple 3-5 year projects but i've never finished a game other than pong. I should probably make a small game, not even a commercial one because I'm not a slopdev. But I should learn how to finish A project
>>529658008It would be more like Democracy actually. That's a closer example. I wouldn't be making a war game directly. But good to know.

so very busy
i want to make a pvp game badly since it's the only thing i really play with up to 6 players in a single match.
i'm concerned about server hosting and cheaters though. should i pivot into something else?
>bochi the janitor abusing xir powers again
sad!
>>529658101I don't know about Blender specifically but I know Maya has a solid built in human rig that you can animate on and either rig or retarget to your character. Covers most game use cases unless you're doing something with quadrupeds or weird monsters.
>>529658137Well I already have like 30% of the art done, some inventory features added. But ya, there's a LOT of programming left. But if I worked 10 hours a day I could probably do it in a year. I already inflated my estimates. But whatever, thanks for the input everyone.
>>529658181my game isn't set on earth so sadly I don't think I'll get autists complaining that the plants are in the wrong biome
>>529658351>Maya has a solid built in human rig that you can animate on and either rig or retarget to your characterThat is not the hard part anon.
>>529658310yes. unless you can do something like yomih.
>>529658310Dealing with hackers/cheaters is a full time job in itself.
If you're indie and doing multiplayer you should do co-op where cheating really doesn't matter. PVP is a nightmare rabbithole to fall into.
>>529658221the best advice I can give you based on your situation is to finish one of your 5 year games badly. just cut large swathes out of it and release it. take the core mechanic, strip away the rest, release it. know it will suck but you finished it.
improved my combat by simply making it real turn turn based instead of 100% real time multitasking.
:D
>>529658449Well you were complaining about rigging so I was giving you some easy outs.
>>529658557i see, the idea is something akin to a party game where there aren't any rankings. now that i think about it, gathering 6 people you know to be on at the same time is not an easy task.
does async multiplayer work around this problem? sorry i'm not tech savvy but what i do know is backpack battles was made by only 2 people and they just ban people who modify the game files.
>>529658310if you actually played games youd know how retarded your question is
AAA games need malware tier DRM with kernel access to still lose to cheaters made by amateur programmers from kazakstan
>>529658701why is a cowboy learning japanese?
Is it so hard for you retards to NOT go on a shitposting spree if you made the thread? Jesus.
the last time i dev'ed hard for 2 months in a row was when i had the mindset "i don't care about having an idea, i just copy old school normal games and try to make it as good as possible".
this way you can just grind and make it a competition, rather than a "creative task"
>>529658894The other anon (While quite rude) is right in his sentiment.
AAA games have a hard time with cheaters. If there was an easy solution they would be doing it.
>>529659261my game isn't meant to be competitive but more like a party game. no rankings or anything for that matter so there's less incentive for cheating and doing so would make you look like a loser.
>>529659465makes me wonder, does amogus have cheaters?

>>529659465That's probably fine then. I would forgo matchmaking and just let players pick their server so if you're playing with cheaters you just won't play with them again.
in order to complete a project, i named my newest one Beer Money Game to keep expectations low. i just want to get to the finish line with this one without thinking about how it needs to make at least a few thousand.
i know it will be worth it because i'm proud of the shitty demos of my previous projects but i really want to know what it's like to have a full game.

>>529660591That's a valid point, but chances are I'd end up having to do it anyway because as I am not a dedicated train enthusiast and trains are intricate machines with a long history, it's unlikely I'd get all the details right even if I tried.

>yayly visit their offices and project your game into them with a powerful projector.>ask to join a playtester then after some years climb the ladder.>honestly, knowing you here from these years, your best shot is to start at the lowest entry level junior positions, then gain experience and build a resume.Thanks for your replies and continued support.
I guess those options are hard for me really, cause I am in Russia now and getting hired as a junior and get a visa is berry hard. Even though I have been living in Japan legally for more than 7 years on student visa I still could not get a permanent residency or citezenship because they require at least 2 years on work or mariiage visa and so on even though I am culturally Japanese and full-time sigme idol those options are way too fragile for me cause I worked so hard and smart on my resume and portfolio on many years and still working yayly I did not even pass to the interview stage in a fwe Japanese companies probably fue to my unique cute and kind, funny subculturarial UNIQUE personality.

/agdg/'s fear of getting their game decompiled proves that most people here will never make a game
>>529672543>>529672770it was 15 years ago, I've given up dating since.
but I will not give up on gamedev no matter how hard my games flop!
if you make anything in anything it can be decompiled and everyone will see your if else statements
>>529674037People can decompile my game. But be warned. The labyrinth of code is not meant for mortal minds, and staring directly into it has been known to drive mortal minds insane, just as staring at a Lovecraftian monster does. Neither meant to be observed by mortal eyes.

All my code is pure gibberish, if you decompile it you'll go insane. Be warned.
>>529674372I didn't even need to decompile your game I could just tell from the aura, it was leaking out of the UI, I could sense some redundancy in the code a mile off

>>529674565I was shitposting but it's something I learned as a hobbycoder and was surprised that some compsci grads graduated without really understanding it, which is why I used it as an example
What I truly will never understand is how people just code with a string of letters and symbols, no real attempt at legibility. Can you even understand it when going back to it? I see it in FOSS games too, like how are you meant to contribute to this?

can you make multiplayer games with godot when people can just decompile and change values?
>>529674797>make good game>get a lot of money>hire people>next games are flopsthis hobby is grim
I decompile Godot games and use the information inside to dox devs & harass them IRL.
All of the assets inside have metadata that makes locating their homes easy and then it's just a matter of flying out or driving to their domicile to start figuring out their daily routine. You'd think yesdevs spend a lot of time at home but you're wrong, they leave their homes completely empty so often and I like to go in and move stuff around.
Nodevs don't really get it though, they don't understand passion like I do.
>>529674952People are going to pirate your game.
I for one think you should just upload it yourself to piratebay.
Like the darkwood guys did.
>>529675014You could have the game create a hash of the executable and send that hash to the server to be authed.
Which is also what local anti-cheat would do.
Obviously only matters for what's not determined by the server.
>>529675014yes, and any other engine. remember cheat engine? yeah well it's not just for one-shotting the bosses in adventure quest anymore... no sir...
>>529674710Is recursion even good for performance?
It makes the call stack longer and it's going to have the overhead of making new function calls.
It's probably worse for performance.

it can work as long as it all ties together nicely, like the example I gave any decently good bait-and-switch doesn't give up its original genre and I guess you would be playing the same character you were from your survivors-like, but honestly, starting the game with a survivorslike sounds like you'll never stand out unless you intend to make it very meta and counter-culture to survivorlikes

The BG font is hand drawn and crude like everything else, yet suddenly your UI uses a different font and it looks blurry probably from the harsh white/black difference. Maybe your eyes don't notice it as much.
>Bracket are for keyboard shortcutI know what they are for, they look extremely ugly and like you had a [t]ypo, maybe it's the font but you're better off making the letter look more bold/unique.

to warn you however, game dev is a challenging endeavour, don't jump into this hobby thinking it will be easy, you will need to spend years learning coding and then art, and then other stuff too, it will literally take you years unless you are a savant NEET
but most importantly, have fun

>>529689331i do not fear western xbox devs
with flaticon.com you can literally do anything. name a thing and there's a colored icon for it. there's no game you can't make with that, you'll never have to make a single art asset yourself.

>just give in and let them skip it
>people now just get bored before i let them skip it (literally probably 8 seconds in)

Web dev here, I use C++ and Javascript and specialize in sockets and auth. I did some multiplayer game stuff with Babylon.js and three.js but am ultimately looking for a more fleshed out ecosystem. Should I roll with Godot or Unreal? Are there any Godot forks that aren't ran by commies?
I've written a few multiplayer physics servers in pure Javascript and seek to expand my horizons to C++, I don't intend on focusing on graphics and shaders too much and am looking for an engine that does a lot of the visual stuff for me so I can have fun with physics and gameplay stuff. I used Havok.wasm as my physics engine but am open to whatever's good and won't cost me an arm and a leg.

He could hack the seeds up with a cough that shoots black tar and makes the player slower or unable to jump.
Then he spits out his old cigarette and lights up a new cigarette. The old cigarette lands on and ignites the tar.

For example my best friend is the programmer on our game. Siblings don't do that type of shit unless you're really cool and lucky.
>>529693415Sounds like you're trying to ask someone here to be your friend.
bruh i cannot find a single person on this planet to talk gamedesign. they are all either programmers or artists.
>>529693969yeah it's a pretty good engine
>>529693963i noticed the same thing, your best bet is watching game design videos on youtube, it's hard to find people who want to talk about this because it's much less interesting than art or programming
>>529693963Are you a game designer? I'm a programmer and want someone to give me suggestions for my game idea.
>>529693969by far the best engine. it's for people who just want to dev and don't care about muh graphics marketing or about muh open source.
They are gonna have so much fun when they play my game...

>>529694295That's what my understanding was too. But if I'm making millions of dollars off an indiegame like I'm Palworld or something by that point I don't even care.
make a game where you are a hero fighting monsters
>>529694416How do 2d Javascript engines like Phaser fit into the mix? Performance doesn't really matter in 2d so I was curious how it fits in with all the other aspects like ease of use and features.
I wanna do right with this dude I collaborated with but I am so fucking lazy... I don't even have a job but I am so at rock bottom productivity wise
>>529694851That's just crazy enough to work.
>>529694646...so do the default in godot 4?
If someone dares to say to me that my game is a copy of MGS or even barely inspired by MGS i'm going insane.
>>529695275i'll keep using unity just for the UI toolkit. fuck zoomer trannies who are too dumb to use it. not my problem.
>>529694878No idea never messed with anything java as I'm not an indian.
>>529693220and failure like me breeds laughstocks
>>529695331post your game and i definitely won't call it MGS
>>529695021>no jobTake testosterone and lift. Not meme-ing. I'm most productive when I'm roided up and lifting regularly. I'm stagnant and don't feel like doing anything when I'm not on my TRT and exercising despite having high test levels even off the needle. Lifting regulates your mind, body, dopamine, hormones, and gives you something to be proud of and look forward to while building the discipline and energy you need to do your daily tasks. With no job you have no excuse not to become the Chad.

>>529695421I'm not a zoomer or a tranny, unity just sucked in comparison for our usage.
>>529695331Did you make a splinter cell clone
>>529693969If people continue to use Unity after everything that's happened in the past few years alone then they deserve what happens to them, that's all I'm going to say.
>>529695517it's too under-developed to post it now, but in some weeks it's going to be a working game.

I am working hard on slop UI with store assets.
>>529695968I tried soulful AI, it's terrible for scaling, rescaling and interactivity, don't bother
>>529693969Yeah, Unity is fine as an engine but the company behind Unity is questionable at best.
For a general purpose engine, I think Unity 6 is the best one I've used, but if you're doing 2D you might as well use Godot or something like Game Maker or RPG Maker, or MonoGame.
I'm hoping that Unity honors their "you'll stay on whatever terms of the latest editor version you're using" but I have my reservations.
I'd say that if you do decide to use Unity, that you should at least familiarize yourself with Godot and UE in case they do another rug pull.
I want to make a Sims-like game but think I may have an aversion to some parts of the crowd that plays the games, particularly those that enjoy the slop that is Sims 4.
They might end up being my target audience and might end up hating me.
Should I NOT make a Sims-like?

How light on specs can you make Unreal 5 go? I want to make a little interactive visualization for a tool but if it ends up being useful I might want to share it to boomers with integrated graphics laptops.

What kind of thread am I gonna read today?
>>529695821>A game where like Palworld where you capture and breed monsters and fight alongside of them.>But instead of a Japanese Pokemon clone the monsters are more like Western RPGs such as Magic the Gathering/LOTR/Dungeons and Dragons.>Instead of science based it's magic and fantasy based>Instead of capturing the monsters in Balls, you capture them in cards and can throw the cards like weapons for extra damage before summoning>you fight along side your monster with magic and have a magic skill tree and can do combo magic with your monster>spells and monster cards are kept in a Grimmoire >you can raise and breed monsters of course to make ultimate cards>the twist is you can use the cards for card games as well to play something like Magic the Gathering with the monsters you bred to unlock items and spellsThere's no good Western RPG monster tamer games. I was hoping to change that. I plan on calling it Magic and Monsters, a reference to Dungeons and Dragons and Magic the Gathering.

All it took was 3 minutes of the slay the spire GDC talk to confirm my hypothesis is gamedev gold is created by a team of one autist, and someone to reel that autist in.
See: Minecraft, except Jeb reeled himself in.
>>529714058I know you hate the guy, but let's not pretend his stuff looks bad it's tiers above most of the people here including you
>>529714382The real conclusion is that being an innovator in indie gamedev sucks, both infiniminer and the game slay the spire literally cloned are left to rot. Same with harvest moon to a lesser extent or wizard survivors that inspired vampire survivors, etc
Don't be first, don't be original.
>>529714573Slam Dingo looks better by virtue of being original and not some copy-paste model downloaded from TurboSquid.
i think a sad part about game development is that it attracts artists who spend years working on a cool passion project with subtle hopes that it'll blow up and make them rich
this almost never happens
if you're not deliberately trying to maximize the algorithmic exposure your game receives, do not expect money
enjoy the process, but remove all hopes in your mind that your game will randomly explode and make you rich
at best, you'll make a couple thousand dollars from a few small-medium sized youtubers giving you exposure, which is still good, but please temper your expectations
again, if you're not trying to maximize your exposure through deliberate optimization for social media algorithms, do not expect substantial revenue
this will save you months of agony when your game doesn't do as well as you secretly hoped it would
>>529713832Nah, the feet are too human
Goddamn agdg I wanted to make an isometric 2d game but it seems that I will need about 33 animations for the player before factoring in specific-case movement

Took me 2 days to go from 0 to having a functional gameloop.
Tomorrow I will create the saving loading system using a json file, and then finishing the title screen and the key bindings.
That should be more or less enough for a prototype.
What's lacking would be the enemies and have a diferent enemy per level, so 60 sprites of monsters and then 60 skins of them when you get to 80% of the level perfected.
After that would be to make 10 sections of music to randomly play and then sound effects.
Finally FX and shaders and juice.
Then It will be basically finished.

i think this is done because the average consumer is a super casual
they don't really "look" for things, they simply interact with whatever's at the top of their feeds
i'd argue most youtube videos are watched based on suggestions, rather than searches, for example
to game the system, many successful entities rely on bots to artificially boost their placement on platforms, placing them at the "top" of the suggestion feeds, drawing users to their products
the biggest twitch streamers, for example, do this shamelessly
the general audience interacts with whatever's in front of them, and in order for your product to be placed in front of them, you need to maximize algorithmic promotion, and ensure you're at the top of the suggestion/feed devices
bots are an easy way to do this

>>529734980I don't know, as far as hobbies go it's pretty cool to make something that people are excited about. Not many hobbies are like that, but then again making a game that gets any kind of reaction isn't necessarily part of the hobby and is exactly what makes it daunting as a job.
>>529734356You sure about that?
>be midwit cs student
>uni now offers a "ludology" minor
>decide to switch into it because I like making games and it's probably much easier than doing something like stats or math
>going into the next year I will have to take a "gender, sexuality and race in video games culture" course because it's the only one that fits into my schedule
I wonder what type of students I should expect to see in a course like that
>>529735062pornhub and xvideos, obviously
>>529734980>grim hobbyhow so? I'm not making a game to live off the profits
>>529735624You're not making a game anyone wants to play.
>>529663838I made a fully playable game that is a combination of chess with balatro's scoring and card mechanics. The "blinds" are now cute anime girls that verbally harass you if you make poor moves. Both black and white chess pieces can be customized (painted, made out of different materials, and given funny hats). I'm kinda in a slump right now because the big to-do are to improve the graphics and visual feedback, but I am no artist. I spent two weeks just designing placeholder art for one category of cards.
AI is a wonderful tool, but you can get sucked into a rabbit hole and end up wasting a lot of time for little in terms of results.
I'd rather buy random cards and customization materials, play a game of chess, and see if I can generate a new error in my debug.log to fix instead of make meaningful progress.
few more hours left in the dev day.
Did some good infrastructure progress today.
Had a huge win on Monday solving a month long problem.
After these few hours I'll be practicing music on my midi keyboard.

>>529738587it's the sisyphus mindset that sees completion as a return to square one rather than a worthwhile accomplishment so they walk slower each day.
>>529738587He's right tho. He understands perfectly well that if he released any time over the last 5 years, it would've flopped, so releasing would've been the same as giving up. However, I assume he actually still clings onto hope that he can somehow magically turn things around if he burns a few more years on it, and his pride and ego refuses to accept that it's hopeless at a fundamental level.

>TFW time to make a new 'Meo OP thread
>>529666419Honestly, serious advice, you probably shouldn't be in Japan anyway, it's a foreign land + expensive as fuuuuuuuuuugg from what I heard. Why do you even live there? Wouldn't you be better off in Russia? Just don't get drafted lol
>>529739118Nine hours of rolling a square bunny is too much. He didn't need to do that to himself. He would have been right to "give up" and release the game 7 years ago when it would have at least been appreciated as an indie title. Now it's just going to be absolutely buried. Nobody has 9 hours to roll this bunny around and get to the level where the devil tells bokube to give up. He quite literally made that "lore" for himself unfortunately.
>>529739705Great idea il cut some content and make it shorter.
BokuDev asking for feedback while the thread chatters about fygoon as per usual is... lol
BokuCHAD ignore everybody, you will win someday and become an Indie Hero among the ranks of Jonathan Blow, and... I don't know.
>>529740331How dare you speak to me when I am talking about you in front of you? NGMI
>>529740406>become an Indie Hero>become an HeroI see what you did there.
>>529740406>mentioning yourself for no reasonYou need medication.
Alright artdevfags get a load of this
>>529734854>blaming the victimsClassic. He gets ignored all the time, nobody is encouraging fygoon. And when he isn't being actively discussed he makes remarks like this
>>529740406He will always convince himself he's important, no need to blame others.
>>529740664>>529740936I'm not him, I just came to the thread and was scrolling through it and noticed some stuff.
>>529740904Yeah I mean great but it's the same game you had 7 years ago. Until you post your game published on Steam I just can't encourage you anymore sorry.
>>529740904It looks weird, like the structures are floating above the lava. Doesn't look like they're mixing with it. Reference other media and see how they make it look real.
>>529741303>Reference other games and see how they get released.Fixed.
>>529740904You're an artfag now
>>529740904how didn't you get sued for scamming your backers yet
>>529741812Read the comments; they rove it.

>>529741812Lawsuits are expensive. Class actions cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to organize, and I don't believe Bokube even had that much backing in the first place. Even if you win, he has no way to pay back the money, and so the people suing can only lose money, regardless of the outcome. The only cost-effective way to do it would be if the backer lived in his city and filed it as a small-claims, and even then the most you'd get is however much you back him for times three, which isn't worth your time.
>>529742069Dude I just watched your 2017 teaser; how does your game look better there??

Day 33 on a Thread for Project C-Con – "Closer Look" Edition
Journal logs are being posted into /agdg/ daily.
Just went back over the first fifteen minutes of the course to better follow along, left off this time at 20 minutes to satisfy the Trello requirements, the teacher seems to be mostly talking for now in the introductory piece, but he's just about to get into actual code now.
What is Project C-Con?

>>529742685He has been overdosing on feedback since forever. Can't get enough of it.
>>529742732You're still here doing this? How often do you post?
>>529743059He's posted here every day for the last 33 days. I kind of expected him to give up sooner, but some summerfags are able to summerfag all summer.
>>529742685Thought you were joking, just watched it.
2017 trailer looks like a game Nintendo would have for a small new IP they are trying out.
New trailer gives a lot of hateful, and spiteful, energy. It gives off the feeling that if the game doesn't succeed he will go out in a shooting spree.
Still, hope BokuDev succeeds, because I don't want innocent people to die.
>30 days to write 3 pages
Sorry C-Con Anon but I would be lying if I said this isn't disappointing. You came here a month ago writing pages about how you were definitely not just ideaguying into the breeze. If you think those docs prove otherwise strongly reconsider. You're on track to be like some kind of nightmare middle management guy in retail but this... this ain't gamedev. It's not even marginally game DESIGN.

This one? The changes made in the art were given to me over the years from agdg anons here and their feedback. But idk why you're judging the art in the last gameplay trailer; even that looks a lot different from current bokube I just havent made a new trailer for the latest version yet. Espically with this art update iv been doing to all levels lately it looks a lot better now than ever imo.
>>529721707sovl
>look like from the frontIt's nothing special, anon. Just some assets I'm using for the prototype. I'll probably replace them once the basic game loop is done.
