What skills do you bring to the table?

tanks are cool

My first wishlist...
Also what the fuck is lifetime wishlist?

>>531358865
That's where you're wrong, Ray.
I don't bring skills to the table.
I bring the table to me and the skills come along with it.

Ahhhh, nothing quite like that relaxing feeling of having a little drink while you make progress.
Suddenly you realize how tense you've been, and everything goes so much smoother and easier. Effortless, even.

Cheers, /agdg/.

>>531359028
So you're saying that your skill is table bringing, i.e. leadership and management? That is indeed valuable, but what kind of leadership experience do you have?

>>531359062
Just now poured myself a little whiskey and already figured out how to fix a graphics bug I've been dealing with haha.

Cheers mate

nobody cares about my game...

>>531359452
Have you tried making a game worth caring about?

you guys ever heard of that game nuclear throne

>>531358951
Lifetime wishlist actions are randomly generated, daily wishlists are the ones that count

I'm making a Majoras Mask-like now.

>>531359703
If it's even halfway decent I'll buy it anon.

The clock is ticking.

>>531358814
please respond i want to get gud

If they can do it, we can do it. AI gen localization and VA is the way forward.

>>531359764
thank you anon.

wishlists are back.....

Why the fuck are godot resolutions so messed up. why the fuck do I have to figure out what will make it not run in a retarded way.

I won't make it again...

I don't care about wishlists and sales, please post about game development.
THANK FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

did u, dare i say it in this general...market ur game?

i could make the game at any second
if i wasn't a 4 on the apple scale it'd be so easy, but instead i'm not capable because i don't have the vision

so how do you make your game not seem like a clone/slop of your inspired game?

Nobody on /agdg/ have good ideas for good games that will print money.

A Ps2 style GTA game set in Seattle in the early 2000s

what do you think works most intuitively for controls when climbing a rope in a 3d game?

when you press interact on a rope you are attached to it and WASD makes you swing around. to move up and down the rope i thought about using either the crouch button and jump button to ascend/descend, and then left click would make you jump off. or do you think it would be better to make it so the left and right click makes you ascend/descend and the jump key makes you jump off?

Watch and learn, rookie. Watch and learn.

Did we get any fanart or collage for DD63?
Post em if you have em please

>>531357493
I don't know how you don't know this already but the actual game is zoomed in by default but I take screenshots most of the time zoomed out to judge the art. ITs not like the game runs at a super zoomed out camera all the time. Look at this screenshot the scale should look fine during normal gameplay.

>>531365723

>>531365235
>5-10% of older zoomers
>10-20% of younger millenials
Optimistic, but these people don't make up the majority of the people here, which is the demographic I'm talking about.

>>531366384
There's something about this where I have a physical reaction to avoid looking at it

The entire game just got an art update based on agdg feedback you might just be subjectively different and a minority outlier who doesn't like the art. Lots of people here in the thread and discord have said they love the new brighter, less normal-mapped more color contrast style.

>>531366419
You think hyperventilation is funny? News flash: it's not, it fucking sucks.

>estimation of an estimation
how much money did you earn so far, hmmmm?

Yes I am still working
No my game will never release
I'm really enjoying animating so it's whatever!

>>531362293
I can release my game right now in early access because you can play it right away.

>>531364334
yes

does your caseworker approve of you using language like that?

nice animation, traced? I guess those leg movements would be hard to implement from imagination.

just saw heroes for hire came out (in EA), good stuff dude

>>531366873
Yeah, there's an immediate reaction to look away. Like a primal "there's something wrong/abhorrent here" that I can't explain.
Are you doing a bit of a horror angle?

>>531368003
Yes actually

>>531366046
he did some drone sim thing i think too. maybe that's included

>>531367503
I'm like this because I burnt out from working 8 years at a dev job. You know nothing.

>>531367374
looking good
got any more work to show off?

still no game. maybe I'm aiming too high. I'm gonna make 15 yo me proud and jlmg using clickteam fusion
this UI has not changed since ~2000

>>531367201
I think you hyperventilating is funny. Of course it wouldn't be funny if it happened to me.

>>531368129
are bokucube levels just the innerworkings of your mind

>>531366046
Every Ubermosh is exactly the same as the last one plus a minor improvement. The guy is selling patches for $1.
My personal inspiration is the Swords and Sandals guy.
He's been making games since the Flash era and only recently became fully independent.
Also, outside of gaming, I think Sam Hyde is a good example. I think he's said before that it took him nearly a decade to make his first $1000 from stand-up.

>"upgraded" GPU
>SD still takes 10 seconds per image

I lost my game.
I can't find it anywhere

>>531367803
>traced?
No -- I don't know how to explain very well, but the constraits of the bones take care of a lot of the details like that. Once you get the prime movers right (mostly the hip drive in this case), the small stuff falls largely into place.

>>531368230
Yeah I'll probably be posting a bit more here and there. Nothing immediately though.

thanks bros, work hard and do your best

Well I'm glad if anon gets fun out of me.

>check Thor code analysis
>shitflinging all around him for magic numbers, bad optimalization, amateurish dialog handling
>mfw I'm on a similiar level

>>531360174

What kinds of characters or objects would it be for? You'd want to to start by deciding your level of realism and then decide which method you want to use for how the limbs actually move. Active ragdoll, target rotation with joints, torque based, force based, some kind of hybrid of these, etc.

Most of the time I use a hybrid approach but if its for something that doesn't require a lot of realism a simpler approach can be better

>>531370867
this is literally a hobby, who cares if it's not completely optimal

>>531370867
Nobody cared until he became big because his game works
I wouldn't mind getting shit flung at with 500k in the bank

>>531370867

The problem with that guy is that he claims to have 20+ years of experience.

>he has been working on heartbound for 8 years now with no end in sight

>>531371131
>he has been working on heartbound for 8 years now with no end in sight
That's true. If he had released then no one would care that the code is shit as long as it's functional enough for people to finish the game.

>>531370867
>>531371131
Literally who?

>>531370867
The only people who obsess over optimization are people who don’t enjoy creating.

>>531371892
i enjoy creating thats why i think writing code that makes it easy to create is so important
yandev's progress slowed and eventually stopped BECAUSE his architecture was so shit it was painful to do anything
if you have an actually solid codebase to build off of like binding of isaac content pumping is just a matter of drawing a picture and writing a couple lines of code

>the game's name couldn't possibly be closer to earthbound
it sounds like a fucking parody, holy shit
the joke writes itself
sounds like a fake game someone would come up with as an undertale easter egg in something else
that's like that one arab uncharted rip off called unearthed

fucking hell why does every hard surface Blender modeler look like a gigachad with an attitude, what is this

>>531366046
Meh, what keeps me going is the knowledge that it took Romero and Carmack 90+ game launches each before they found success with Wolfenstein.

>>531373063
Some funny forgotten lore/drama from back in the day is that Game Theory once played Heartbound on stream and Thor freaked out because they tagged #undertale in the stream to give it more of an audience.
Everyone was on Thor's side at that time and now everyone thinks he's a fucktard. (I always did)

It's crazy how gacha games are taking over and sipping into everything.
/vg/ is already 80% gacha, /v/ is well on its way to becoming another gacha board.
You want to gen an image? You have to add negative tags to avoid gacha features sipping into your gen.
You go on Steam? Gacha is the first thing you see.
You open your phone's app store? More gacha shit.
Gacha tops the charts everywhere.
The companies making them are some of the most profitable companies in the world.

This is called a hierarchical state machine.

why do so many beginners want to make RPGs? is it to compensate for a lack of creativity or a desire to create worlds?

>>531379508
Because in general most "gamers" don't play video games, they watch movie games (often times literally, on YouTube).

holy shit i hate programming.

>>531379508
Simple: Their favourite game is an RPG

>>531379508
Because JRPGs are a solved genre and they want to be the next Austin Jorgensen, i.e. make it big entirely based on art/story/characters while the gameplay is the basic formula everyone knows

>>531379225
i'll just go on IRC when my next 4chan ad campaign is ready, probably by next steamfes if he's still acting retarded when i'm back from my actual vacation :)

>>531379508
The only people I know who want to make RPGs are talentless hacks who can't code or draw but think they can write (they can't).

Most beginners I know try making either a shitty horror game or a shooter.

>>531376896

Random game design question
How would the core gimmick of the classic Monster Rancher games (i.e generating abominations from CDs/DVDs) work in the modern era where digital media reigns supreme?
Take in files from your PC's filesystem? Look at games on your steam library (if a steam game that recaptures the essence of monster rancher can even do that)?

>>531381542
I saw that thumbnail from tthe Vinny video that came out today.

I don't feel like doing anything lately. Just want to lay in my bed all day and doom scroll or watch some movies.

Maybe its because I stayed indoors the last 2 months or so. My sleep schedule is all over the place and I feel tired all the time.

how can you know if you are gay or not if you don't try it? what if you like it way more than any normal stuff and you've been denying yourself of your true role in life? i did try it. I kissed a dude once, and another time I tried putting a dildo in my ass, and even more fruity shit, but I came to the conclusion that I didn't like it as much as just being a normal guy and being with women and having sex with them. so after trying it I can safely say that I am not gay

I asked Grok to help me with my game and he started talking about MechaHitler and jews and now I'm too depressed about the future of western civilization to work on my game.

Trying out Heroes for Hire from the steam keys given out here.
So far so good. Only real flaw I've had in the first 15 minutes is that the tutorial hits you with a bunch of things at once. I'd add crafting and potions later in the game than minute 1.

Art posting mockup because I posted earlier about this.
Lost my files for the big boob cave game, but found a gif in the archive so I restarted the idea yesterday.
The idea is a small game focused on bouncing boobs, a booblike.
The premise is Nami captured by a FUB pirate, but he doesn't want the bounty, he wants ribs, pits and tits. Lot of placeholders in picrel since I don't want to animate the enemy until I have the focus point done.
For gameplay, Nami can squirm to avoid attacks to the ribs (low) tits (mid) and pits (high).
I'm trying to be efficient and split animation into core loops, example picrel hopping up and down while being tickled is one of the loops that can play when he has latched on in an attack, another I have is her shaking side to side, and I'll do at least one more of curling down a bit.
Her "health" is worn on her face and shown in three tiers. At max health, she appears defiant and cross. At mid health, she's blushing as in picrel and laughter appears. At low health, she's laughing hysterically with tears down her face. This was easy to do with the head as a separate layer, the bikini is separate as well since that comes off to allow some more lewd behaviours.
I still need to add alot more bouncing to things like the hair, backgrounds etc.
Always appreciate feedback from art anons

Like if I had to pick between Tiny Combat Arena and Thunder Helix I'd pick TCA every time unless I REALLY wanted a chopper game instead. TCA just did it way better.

Trailer also fails to make the game look exciting.

I think big part of its failure is definitely in failure to market the damn thing. Looking at youtube performance and comparing it to TCA there's a massive difference. TCA had attention a few years before it went into EA because it had the itch demo up for a long time. A quick look into google trends it's almost like nobody had heard of Thunder Helix before it went into EA. There seems to be a whole total of two reddit threads talking about the game.

>>531390008
Why do we ignore that TCA has a publisher?

>TCA is still in EA
it's like somethings never change around here

>another aggydaggy release on steam with fuckall wishlists and a poorly performing demo

How long hours should a $5 game on Steam be?

Grok has become slow since companion because the degenerates are hogging up all the compute. Go touch grass and talk to an actual girl. I need to generate code.

Whoever that channel belongs to he's brilliant. Millions of views from latching onto the meta.

I was told to use a Resource rather than a Node to for input processing and movement calcuilations and logic. Would anyone with any 3D experience in Godot let me know if they've worked with it

>>531391846
your first mistake was assuming there's any logical sense to pedot's framework

I ate the wendigo and I'm still hungry.

>>531391846
resources are usually data containers designed to be stored to disk, i'm not really sure why you would be processing input in one.

>>531392235

>>531389586
fuck yeah

>>531390127
>>531390585
Microprose's trailer for TCA did 200k views making it one of the best performing videos of it. I don't know what their cut is but I would assume they did bring in some sales. It would have been interesting if Thunder Helix was also published by them. Would make it more comparable.

At the end of the day TCA built its audience even before it got picked up by a publisher.

>>531390378
No hurry to release since he already made all the money.

>>531391846
A custom resource is a bit like a Scriptable Object in Unity. You use them to hold data for specific versions of your game's objects, for example making a Food resource that can have a mesh for the graphic, a string for its name, etc and then you can make a strawberry Food, a Pizza food, etc.

I don't know why you would use this for input processing.

>>531392419
a successful publisher is primarily someone with the skills to convince someone to handover revenue and secondarily someone who can identify when something is going to do well.
you only need to look at a publisher's failures to find the floor is still zero, meaning there is no purpose behind their existence.

>>531392471
that's what I thought too, I wanted to pass in momentum from different States in a State Machine and they suggested a resource. Then added I could use it for input processing, whichg gave me pause. I'm glad that my questioning is not without merit.Here is the EntityData and the PlayerData that I'm using for my Statemachine.

N64-style is already rearing its ugly head, just getting started.

how do i get good at character design

calling it now the next big thing is retro nurbs aesthetic

There's a script that controls the bools of several other scripts in the form of status effects. Do I even need to do that or can I just trigger the bools on their own?

>>531394306
Unironically, by becoming a pervert. Doesn't matter what kind.

I chuckled, it's an understandable response.

>>531393092
Looks like you could put all this player attribute data in a basic PlayerManager.gd script and put anything that needs to be globally referenced in a GameManager.gd singleton autoload script. Looks like you're going down the right path now.

>>531398853
I just won't play your game if character creation is clunkier than selecting from one of a dozen predefined appearances and maybe adjusting some stats. Uggh, I know, sorry! But I'm just not going to buy it if I have to spend 3 hours fidgeting with sliders creating a face I don't care about before I can even play!

There's literally nothing wrong with this, and if some whiny little bitch can't handle it then they are not my audience and I would hope they can still get a refund.

>>531399818
While I hope you understand, I was half joking. Can you explain to what degree you will take away control from your player in your game. So I know if I should make fun of you or not.

>>531399531
You know, if they were just trying (and failing) to be funny, that'd be one thing, but they were probably being dead serious when they designed that and multiple devs likely masturbated to it in the process.

Hello again! Newbie coder here, once more with some requested help. I am trying to pass a referenced AnimationPlayer from my Player.gd class to a StateMachine, but whenever I do, it says that the animation_player is null! I figure it has something to do with the loading order, but I also do like talking to you folks more than google searching stack overflow so I figured I'd ask.

I've attached an image with what I believe to be all the relevant information, if we need the Node hierarchy, I can attach that as well.

Vroid studio models with mixamo animations.

This is how people will react to my game on release.

you play as the invisible man

>>531364420
Fuck you. I didn't say you could draw me.

>>531401327
Mixamo is the obvious answer.

I've also used stuff from quaternius a few times, but their models didn't play nice with animations other than their own.

>>531400931
I dunno looking at it like that but do read the error it's giving you: in state.gd at line 16 you're trying to play something that doesn't exist.
That @export var animation_name = "" is equal null when func enter() is triggered. So if you're exporting it probably means you didn't assign anything to it in the inspector properties.

Am I the only retard here who constantly struggles with space in my PC?
Often, at least once a month, I have to do file management and start deleting stuff. Reason is the large amount of courses, and references, I have saved. But, there's really nothing that beats having a course, always available, organized to which I can go back to whenever I forget/need to refresh my memory.
Also, there's the fact that half of it isn't even directly related to gamedev, so I constantly have to balance when deleting, between my actual hobbies, and this jobby.

Nobody talks about art anymore since AI was invented.

does a state calling parent.animations.play(animation_name) do anything?

i don't think the "is" keyword at line 18 in statemachine.gd does what you think it does. normally you would use something like Object.is_class(obj) but that only works for built in classes. i think you should get rid of that if statement and just assume from now on that all children of a state machine will be states.

I genuinely can't delete anything else. I deleted all porn months ago, everything is either art related, references, music related, coding related, UE5 related (including all of the programs associated with it, like Niagara, Houdini, Maya).
All of them I'm currently using for the game.
>>531402801
tried to, but the retard scammed me and it was defective, and any time it goes beyond 1.7 TB the files started to get corrupted (which I only realized weeks after), so I had to go back to my old one (the 1.81 TB).
Then I thought, I'll use the 1.8 one as my main one, and simply partially use the 4 TB (defective) one as a backup, for files here and there, but it turns out that all ports of my motherboard are defective, except the one that is already being used for the 1.81 TB one.

Unless I upgrade all of my PC, I'm stuck with what I currently have.
To be honest, currently, my biggest fear is that the harddrive gets corrupted. It's genuinely filled of things I have specifically selected because they help me specifically and my workflow, and its old, and has a bunch of courses that aren't even available in IC or CGpersia.
It's the result of half a decade of culling, and although I would be able to replicate/redownload large amounts of it, definitely a lot of useful stuff would be lost.
Currently I guess that my plan is going through some of the heaviest courses, which are easy to redownload, and deleting them. If I do that I should have at least 100 GB of free space in a couple months. The problem is that all the courses are like 50 hours long each, and they aren't really only 50 hours long, as you need to constantly pause to replicate what the guy is doing and paying attention to the inputs on screen, etc.

I've been making my way through picrelated for like 10 week, and although it has helped me A LOT into understanding ZBrush, and better workflow, just look at it, I'm still only in the second video. And I can't really 2x it, as the guy has a very heavy accent.

>>531404652

>>531404652
Hate to say it, but it seems you're working with software that is a little above your means.

UE5, Houdini, Maya and Zbrush are all incredibly bloated compared to other options on the market.

If you can't afford to by the necessary hardware to run them, then you might want to consider software with lower storage requirements.

>>531402327
WinDirStat can help you find big chunks of data to delete. I have about 8TB of disk space and it's always running out.

>>531402397

>If you can't afford to by the necessary hardware to run them, then you might want to consider software with lower storage requirements.
It's definitely not the program themselves that are causing the problems, they are heavy, and the files they create are too, but I've been actively deleting recovery/temporary files.
The biggest problem by far are the courses, and references themselves.
It's a 90/10 in terms of how much of the problem are the courses, and references that I'm using vs the actual files for the programs. All the programs are in my Local Disk (C:).
"D:" is exclusively courses and references.
Zbrush files/documents are actually quite light once you delete the temp files.

If I have to say the main problem, it's probably the Unreal 5 courses, as they are the heaviest, and they are absolutely necessary. Godot and Unity have way more easily, free, available resources in Youtube, however, Unreal 5 courses, that are actually good, aren't that common, and they definitely aren't in Youtube.
But everything else is the same (that being Houdini, Maya, Speedtree, etc.), since I'm completely new to a lot of the programs I can't really delete the courses.
What I'm considering doing is deleting a bunch of my art related courses that I can find in IC, but it's annoying to have to redownload everything again later, and I'm definitely at the point in which I can't really delete some of the stuff easily, it's either choosing between a topic that I haven't studied yet, but probably will in a few months vs deleting ones that I use very often, but I'm also very familiar with and remember well and hoping that if I delete them I won't need them again for a while.

I'd rather bite the bullet and just learn Unreal and scale back all the features to my needs than deal with Unity or Godot/Redot

>>531407580
that could work if your parent's retirement funds are enough to cover the both of you

I also moved out at 18 or maybe it was 19 and I really couldn't imagine going back

>>531407627
Oh i’m racist, sorry!

>>531407787
Good idea. Unreal is future proof.

>>531407787
unity is way better for indie 3d
the only time unreal benefits you is if you have millions of dollars for an art budget and even then you end up with a blurry mess of a game because of the renderer

>>531407345

Why not upload the videos to YouTube yourself?

You can keep them private so only you can access them, and then delete them off your hard drive.

>>531408037
lol no

You! Yeah, you! You could be working on your game right now! Why are you posting slop on a website for losers?!

blender is so easy, i should've been doing this years ago

learn and only use hotkeys first, keep a text file with all the useful ones (have chatgpt make the initial one for you), and add more as you go, your brain will quickly meld with it

I need a punny name for a french fry piranha. Any suggestions?

>>531408125
Actually good idea. I'll do that for some courses until I get enough space again in a couple months.

>>531407787
Unreal is not suitable for small teams or solo dev.

So unless you've got a big company behind you, there's no reason to pick it over the other options.

I'm not ready for that kind of commitment yet anon... but trust me, it's going well and will be revealed eventually. I hope to have it ready for a demo days by the end of the year.

>>531407842
I didn't have much of a choice, I burnt out hard from a decade and a half of soul-sucking low paying jobs.
My mom started paying my rent and bills, and after a while it just made more sense if I moved back in with her. I ended up finding various ways to save her money on bills after moving in due to years spent living on the edge of destitution. So far, it's been a huge win-win.

>>531412167
All engines are a constant chain of PR and management fuckups. But you're making your game, don't get sucked up into worrying about some random corporate bullshit.

The big reason that I tell people to avoid using Unreal is that it caters more to specialisation. For example, it has way better animation tools than Unity, but you best be a professional animator, because it's not gonna hold your hand with any of that shit. Meanwhile, in Unity or Godot. You can just toss some shit you found online into a timeline, and click shit until it works.

It's also way easier to get help for Unity or Godot. A hundred people have already had the same issues you're about to have in the course of their own project, and shat up every tech forum about how they troubleshot/fixed the issue. For Unreal, those things most likely happened in a big studio and were solved in house.

It's kinda too late at this point but I think I would have preferred being a sound designer instead. I keep buying sound packs on sales and imagining how cool it would be if I combined them and used them for certain things in games.
Of course I'm not going to change careers after spending 6 years programming and 2-3 years practicing 3D modeling. But you know, just some random thinking about how you can miss out on your true calling in life or real talents just for the simple reason that you never got exposed to them. (Well, even if I found it early and told mom I want to be a sound designer she would have waterboarded me until I changed my mind, but food for thought.)

>sdl IS the handholding
not really, it isn't much higher level than coding against win32api or directX directly

unless you mean assembly or MS-DOS or vulkan or something

when you first start, you think you could make anything you want. then you quickly realize how big of a task making a game is.

>>531421587

Sounds like you're still below the requirements to be an industry sound designer in 2025.

>>531422286
>>531422040
i always thought even if the game's 3d layer doesn't go at pure native refresh rate, the software cursor and other 2d UI stuff should. it is probably possible if you render the 3d to an offscreen buffer and then display that on a full screen quad, and render to it asynchronously somehow...

>>531422392
I just had the opposite of this just now.
I had a doubt, then I realized 'wait a minute, I CAN HECKIN DO THAT~!!!!!"

it ain't even got no point to the game you just walkin around and jumping and shit. the whole game you just be goin back in time. watch this shit, watch this shit right here.
and there ain't no point to the game. this shit stupid as hell man

>dumdum who knows nothing about graphics programming
>follows SDL Tutorial Chapter 1
>"this is basically the same as DirectX in my mind"

>>531422590
Nice. Is this using rapier?

>>531417453
>>531418103
okay well this tutorial that I'm working on comes with some synty-ass placeholder assets to follow along with and use to learn how assets work in the 3d world, programming wise, so that's fine.

but when I'm past that (so, post-dd64 I'd say) I'd be (fingers crossed) ready to start having custom assets so if you're still around during dd64 submission times I'll remember to ask in the thread for any interested 3d artists, assuming I have a successful time from now till then

>>531422601
It is if you are doing a 2d game, you use win32api + directx api to create a window, or you use SDL api to create a window. okay so SDL handles the message pump big deal, win32 message pump is ez and there are a million examples. then you create video memory bitmaps to load your sprites into, sdl or dx its much the same. then you use them to create a 2d tilemap system, place objects, have animated character sprites, code object interactions, SDL vs DX is basically the same at that point. Esp. seeing as how the only useable procedural audio API in SDL is basically a copy of the waveout streaming callback thing, your code structure is much the same. I mean SDL was made by windows->linux game porters as a linux-cross-compatability layer for games that were originally written in directX so if it differed too much architecturally then they would had to have done a full engine rewrite each time. You can probably build a clone of the directX API ontop of sdl+opengl, you'd just need some kind of shader transpiler.

>>531422590
>3D Braid
Holy kino.

>>531423132
can you even make a game with win32 api

>>531422392
More than the amount of work I was surprised with how deliberate the entire process is.

>>531423234
yeah there were some crappy games made with that. there was this turn based 2d top down space game that I used to play when I was in grade school that used win32 api, and I think yoda stories was as well: https://www.abandonwaredos.com/abandonware-game.php?abandonware=Star+Wars%3A+Yoda+Stories&gid=2556

and there is always minesweeper and solitaire

>>531422590
damn. I get it. It's a jonathan "braid" blow reference... that's touching
What are you planning on doing with this mechanic? Are you just messing around with this game or do you actually have a direction?

unbelievable. csharp is easier to embed than python.

>>531423732
yeah I've looked into embedding python before but they always try to sales-speak you into turning all of your non-python parts into python plugins or modules or whatever and having your main loop be a python script

and then there is lua which is the nicest to embed one that I've ever used.

Even PHP is easier to embed into another program as a scripting language than python is... but who would want to?

>>531417535
The cameltoe feels excessive even for Japshit

Saving system is taking way longer than I expected, but I'm almost done.

>>531422590
dude that looks like such a cool gimick though

but, i think it would look better gameplay if you didnt rewind along with everything else, like you could keep walking forwards while using your power to rewind shit back away from you like some gandalf ass shit, that might be dope

think how powerful you'd feel

>>531423892
idk what tutorials you're reading but python is fairly straightforward to get the interpreter embedded but then it wants to drag in a bunch of shitty little std lib dependencies.

No it's a custom fluid simulation. I haven't tried Godot's Rapier extension, but it doesn't look like it has enough features exposed for me. A very important one that seems to be missing, at least in my brief glance at the source (there's no actual documentation), is querying for fluid particles. I would probably be able to modify the extension if I knew Rust, but I currently don't.

>>531423132
Holy shit this guy is so fucking retarded. How about you stop writing gamedev fanfiction and work on your fucking game? This shit would make ChatGPT cringe.

I've been aimless and depressed so I wanted to pick up a large project. Is this base decent enough to get started with gamedev? My biggest weakness would be writing. I'm terrible at it and I've only read around 200 books, and only some of them were really rewarding ones like the typical trendy stuff on /lit/ -- your Bolano, Pynchon, Krasznahorkai, Braudel, etc.

>>531425082
keep your gui message pump in a separate thread from the rest of the game systems.
if i can window your game and it freezes when i drag it then you fucked up your design.

>>531424834
Sunk costs. Imagine spending 10 years making 3D games and 3D models with 3D animations, is it a good idea to jump over to 2D tween animated games if you want success in life?
Of course if I become a millionaire I could easily do it, but I still have to put food on the table at the moment, I'm not going to ditch my skillset and start over from scratch at this point.

>>531425290
This place is the best place to start game dev because people will actually play your game and give you feedback on demoday.

>>531425372
if your trying to keep food on the table you dont go into gamedev.

>>531425005
the statement is still half true, win32api for the window, directx NOT for the window but for graphics.

>>531425290
If you're being honest about those skills, then you're already way ahead of 90% of posters here. Just like make game, but I would recommend a small game project. Even the smallest game projects are incredibly huge.

Is this still wrong somehow? What if I want to make a class that extends Vec2? Do I just call Vec2.new in its constructor and then set __index to the extending class? This is lua.

you should be able to get linux as the prime booter and then chain from grub to windows, might need to install windows on MBT not sure

also, if you don't need good 3d perf you can get VMWare Workstation Pro for free from broadcom now you just have to register an email login and navigate their cancer site. and you can use steam streaming to run windows only steam games from linux without having to forward your bluetooth controllers into the VM it works great, so long as the game doesn't need 3d beyond what VMWare workstation can provide (opengl 3) with zero setup, just install steam on arch and inside windows VM, have both running and logged in, and it auto detects it and gives you a stream option where install/play usually is.

are you doing AI? it's not just for gaming is it? seems like massive overkill just for gaming. A 7900 XTX should be enough for that, and AMD gfx drivers are going linux+opensource as the primary. I wouldn't pay nvidia tax unless it was to run cuda / AI stuff

brother you have severe OOP brain damage. why do you want to turn vector2s into a class? why not just ... use a vector2 table.

>>531430374
for such a serious investment it doesn't make sense not to max the benefit on the software side. if the windows drivers provide even 1% better FPS or support then you should boot a pirated copy of windows and run Linux in a VM if you want Linux so much. When you have an expensive item like that then even small percent differences are large actual amounts.

>>531430161

I'm just using Vec2 as a simple OOP test class to make sure I get OOP right in my lua code.

OOP is the devil's paradigm

I am making a self-insert Majora's Mask-like Conker-like.

>>531430765
Oh well then I don't know how to help you, I tried oop in lua before but I completely forgot how it worked, it's kinda hacky to be honest.

>>531430254
They already have a fake twitter app where you exclusively interact with AI. It's the kind of echo chamber that is going to increase autism and political radicalization by another order of magnitude.

Why does OOP filter so many retards?

>>531430918
It IS hacky indeed. Lua table has a metatable and an __index field which it internally uses to find... methods. So I figured if I set metatable to the actual class and then __index to the parent class (or actual class), inheritance should work which it seems to do but I'm still unsure.

This is the perfect opportunity for the threadly reminder that even gamedev success can be a trap.
Imagine your game earns you 10 years of income. Would you quit your job and start making games full time? If so, you'd have fallen into the same trap I did.
The crux of the trap is the time you spend as a gamedev will count against you if ever need to get a job again. And the ironic thing is the more successful you are, the more dangerous the trap will be unless you earn enough money to never need a job again.
The only way full-time gamedev would be sustainable is if your games keep earning you at least a year of expenses for every year worked... until you're literally 75. And I do mean literally. When you're 72, you'll need to sit down and make a game that earns you 3 years of expenses. Anything short of that and you'll eventually run out of money. And when you do, you'd have been 10-15-20 years out of the job market and good luck getting a job with an employment gap that big.
When you run out of money, it can take as little as a couple of months for your life to be ruined. That's what happened to me. I found myself broke at 45 and no job for the past 15 years except making games. And I'm looking at 30 more years of having to survive. I can't get job interviews, I can't afford to keep working on games, and I'm too old to get into trades. My life is probably fucked because my first project earned me 10 years of income and I quit my job like a dumb ass.
Anyway, the point of this is to warn you: DO NOT QUIT YOUR JOBS UNLESS YOU EARNED ENOUGH MONEY TO NEVER NEED A JOB AGAIN. If my warning saves even a couple of you, it's worth it.
And remember that I'm not trying to discourage you from making your game, just from going full-time before you get fuck-you-money.

but yes, the main character actually does resemble a Mario in a way. He's basically an Italian Elf. So, actually could be said to be a visual mix between Link and Mario.

>>531433859
>anon expecting the gov't to side with the common people against the banks

people to you when they got a job: "get a job"
people after they got laid off: "people treat me so bad"

people when they got a job: "they took aa jeeeebs, hehe dumb hillbillys"
people when ai replaces them: " they took aaaaa jeeeebs"

all humans need to be made poor or they become assholes. having wealth always results into lack of empathy and big ego.
