sending good vibes to all lolidevs

Reminder that Shodanon and Peripeteia is proud and trans. Chuds step aside.

PSX style is crap and just an excuse to make ugly games and call it "SOVL"

>>534329381

No, this is GameCube style.

anons, this is probably going to be a question that noone here can answer, but
games like Enter the Gungeon or Binding of Isaac - are the enemies that get spawned in every room, how are they selected? what i mean is, let's say we have room of type X, would the enemies spawned be explicitly set in the Room "construct" or "prefab", or would it rather be that the level has a set of enemies spawns, and it would just choose one randomly or using some logic? i don't know if i'm articulating myself properly here

i bought a music and sound effect bundle on humble bundle, that's game dev

I honestly thought making a tornado would be easier than a conventional boss, but it just turned out to be a different kind of pain in the ass.

Also I'm out of ideas for attacks.

>Windows is bad

>>534334236
thanks, i don't mean generating a level, just methods of assigning enemy spawns to a room/level that's already generated

>>534335392
that page explains the enemy spawning.

But the logic basically is to spawn some objects at some specific locations you set up using rules, like being in corners, and then randomly pick one of them.

>>534329993
>>534330868
>>534330685
stop invoking that attention whore lunatic
>>534332473
>static enemies
now you realize how necessary is to make pong?

>>534334957
>Also I'm out of ideas for attacks.
what, the tornado attacks?

throw smaller tornadoes, either moving randomly or in some patterns
as above but with gusts of winds or something
could make the area covered in sandstorm so the players vision is impaired
could spawn debuff zones like i dunno, some oil spills or whatever, i don't really know what kinda setting this is

the problem with this being a tornado is that it mainly throws shit, so what do you want it to do. i feel a lot of the challenge could lie in the pllayer having some agency here, i.e. having to dodge some projectiles, but blocking others or deflecting them, moving the tornado somehow or making it consume things to defeat it, or some other

>>534333774
Legs turno into the flaps/wings in the back, black armor on the side of the chest moves to the front and closes into the nose, arms just stay stretched back. Eventually I´ll give actual animations so it´ll probably be easier to understand, though keep in mind it´s still in prototype phase and the design could very well change, I just did something so I wouldn´t have to stare at squares all this time

>>534332473
What the hell are you doing?? Shouldn't you be working on the core mechanics before adding more and more guns?
I don't think this is the way to go... You might end up replacing the guns later or something. Should write them down as ideas and come back to them when the core gameplay loop or mechanics are done. But don't mind me I'm must saying.

>>534335598
thanks i'll check it out
however what i mean wasn't "how to put enemies in a room" in terms of spatiality(or whatever), but how to choose enemy spawns themselves.
as in, when i enter the room in EtG, the game spawns, say, some two pistol dudes, two chotgun dudes and a grenade dude. why and how did the game choose those enemies specifically? is there a global list? a level list? is it predetermined by a type of the room, or it's layout? were these enemies chosen randomly? were they in some sort of a list from which they were plucked, or were they in an object and that whole object gets assigned to a room? etc etc

>>534335994
it's him "subtly" talking about himself in third person

I devved a bit.

>>534336429
that's 100% up to you.

You could use a dificulty variable, a variable that counts how many enemies the player has killed, the number of levels, use enemies that counter act the player current weapon.

You can have a random number, and then have each option have a secondary choice.

Or do stuff like a random number divided into 2 tiers, and then make one being easy and the another spawn a harder enemy a 1/3 of the time.

Your question has a million ways to be solved, and is when coding becomes more an art than a science.

rare on-point cris post

>>534334957
wasn't this suppose to be a tf2 clone. Do you ever plan on actually selling this or is it just a lifelong hobby project you dick around with

nodevs... ai took our job

Anyone else feeling guilty when not using the 5 hours Claude code limit? Like I'd be outside and think about my game, it unironically made me dev 10x more.

>>534336427
I wanted to add 3 pairs of weapons because weapon changing is a key part of the game, and the enemies rely on the weapon system to work. I got movement working well enough for prototype, now I just need to finish the last weapon I planned and then work on enemies. Since I´m not very experienced in enemy AI I´ll probably stay a while in tutorial hell, so I might as well do things I find fun for a while before doing that. Making the weapons was also great for learning stuff that could be useful later on. Hope everything works out alright

>>534321119
>retrodevs please give me the option of turning all that crap off and playing it at native res with msaa
Any smart retro dev markets their game with high res, AA and texture filtering on. Then you provide the option for that retro garbage for those few who want it. Maybe include a "retro mode" 2-3s clip in the trailer.

>>534329298
kill yourself

>>534339387
Are you using normals and depth to detect outlines? I like the wobbly outline but otherwise the style has a lot of problems with aliasing and flickering pixels.

The video on Casey Muratori talking about OOP someone linked last thread caused this to show up on the recommendation feed:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFFwKouwLsc

Lines up with previous observations on why agdg games suck. Everyone here is red, pretty much no one here is blue.

>>534341151
outlines are inverted hull w/ vertex snapping like what youd see on a ps1 style shader.
its not quite as rigid as the vertex snapping youd see on ps1 shaders cus i use smoothstep + voronoi noise, and then split each vector direction (x, y, z) for their own calculations... Thats also what is causing the in-lines to look so bad.

Basically not optimized or thought out yet. Just coud not sleep last night, then had the idea to try that, and that's what I ended up with.

If I do this for actually in the game, it'll be a post processor with ObjectID tags, jump flood algorithm and then also probably a sine wave function w/ minor noise to more smoothly offset values, instead of voronoi + vertex snapping... But I have a wobbly outlines post process that already applies to every object. Just like the idea of having separate outlines styles for each type of object.

Finally for AA and pixels its cus the window on my monitor is like 480p resolution and I blew it up to 720p for the webm

that shader is cool but needs to be faster, its really jarring being that slow
or maybe make it have a parallax effect with screenspace

>>534339387
disgusting, do you even respect women? I will be filing this game under the "anti trans sexist propaganda" folder.

>>534334041
the enemies in Isaac are predetermined much like how each room is. The roguelike simulation is how the rooms interconnect and how the items are spawned, every room has their own unique layout which always spawns the same enemies and the same environment.

Lifted some weights just now to ensure I maintain the Frydarian Physique. What did I miss, dweebs?

I do believe I could have very well started working on basic enemy behaviour after the first weapon was working, but to tell you the truth I just really wanted to see if I could pull off the weapon system I had in mind and I´m glad I did it this way. See it working as intended gave me a lot more confidence and motivation to keep going with this project.

I can't tell if Heretic and Hexen sprites are pre-rendered or hand drawn. Some of them got that pre-rendered feel but some don't. Like this crossbow clearly is but I'm not sure about the enemies in this screenshot. But then some enemies do look pre-rendered.

Sorry, I misread your post. I'm not sure but I think that other guy is probably right in that ir's both.

>>534346685
ngl, fygoon's persona is starting to make a lot more sense. the dude is clearly a chad and probably has women lined up asking for his seed, just look at the webm. I'm straight and even I want a piece of that fy pie.

He probably acts the way he does because he needs to keep up a cool persona, he can lean into the cringe all he wants cus he's a beast in the sheets and he knows it. I know it, you know it.

He acts the way he does so we don't get jealous, or worse.. hot and bothered. If he was his true self, and posted webms like THAT every day, then none of us would get any work done. I can't focus on this post cus of my blood rushing to my pants resulting in a boner. It is what it is, I guess.

So yeah, he is doing us a favor. He is preventing us from getting distracted from his chad looks, his chad skills, and his chad expression. Put simply, he is wearing the Burka of game dev, so that us hornyboys can focus and finish our game.

Even looking at the replies to this webm, it's clear that all of you are so angry at him because you secretly want to kiss him and be held by him. It makes sense, projection at his finest.

Thank you fygoon.

what should i focus when making the trailer? should i just look at similar games to mine and copy what they do for their trailer?

then on steam, you know how there is a requirement for capsule image, screen shots, and then sometimes people put gifs when you scroll down to the description?
for thos, can I just use still images from the trailer for the screen shots, clips from the trailer for gifs, and so on? Just as an emphasis for those parts? For the capsule image, the one shown above the description, studio, release day, etc I will make a separate image

How does transitioning from Early Access to full release on Steam work? I have an early access game that I finished up and want to fully release, but I don't know if pressing the "release" button would just immediately make the game page fully released or if I get to wait a bit after designating an EA app as ready to release.

Just a personal "pet peeve" or whatever, I really really don't like those shops and my brain closes whenever I play a roguelike or some similar game that has them. It feels... So shallow. I feel like seriously? Only like 3 or 5 items at most? And they're all equally as shit/good. Why? Especially the "reroll" functionality feels insulting and I can't describe why. Not saying you should remove it, its just my opinion on it but I still think its objectively difficult to make these kinds of shops that come in-between stages to be good. I wanna revisit the shop. I want it to be normal. It doesn't even feel like a shop, it feels like a GUI program.

Why do you need a creative genius and why would a creative genius need you?

This thread is only for creative geniuses and cris.

>>534363035
>Why do you need a creative genius
I have technical skills and product experience, but not the creative genius to make an exceptional product people would want to spend money on
>why would a creative genius need you?
I have technical skills that can turn a genius's ideas into a finished product.

>>534363517
If a creative genius is too retarded to learn the technical skills needed to implement his ideas then he is not a creative genius, he is a lowly ideaguy. Maybe you just need to aim lower and get an ideaguy.

Also why are you interested in making games if you have no ideas for what games to make? Why not make real grown-up software? That's where the real money is.

>>534363826
I am willing to settle for an ideaguy if the ideas are good.

I make real grown-up software for a day job already, so now I want to make something creative, but all my ideas have proven to be bad. I need someone to give me good ideas.

arms clip through cus its a mixamo walk animation. I just like to use medium to high polygon count models of women when I work on my shaders.
they're pleasing to look at and boobs are basically spheres, so I can get a good idea how the lighting on the shader is gonna turn out.

gameplay is LSD Dream Emulator walking/exploring clone but with mini games and the worlds are generally more interactive. I'm still working on the shader for the arcade screens, thats why you see the purple-ish coloration scanning from top to bottom but not any scanlines yet.

>>534363517
if you have technical skills but not genius its because you didn't set enough limitations for yourself or for what you would like to make. there's the saying about creativity is formed from limitation, that's one of the true sayings. If your just at the ideas stage or dont have an idea, its not really being creative because ideas are limitless. once you start to chip away that first idea is when the creativity starts.

I'm completely willing to team up with you and slave away to produce even most of the game since I'm not lazy and can do my fair share of the technical minutia, but you wouldn't team up with me now because you're shallow minded and my game hasn't released yet and I'm tired of people like you.

>psx style is crap
kek you know the funny thing is its actually EASIER to do realistic style with meta human and unreal engine and realistic asset store shit. hell its actually easier to do cartoony style if you only buy assets. doing shitty low poly PSX style actually takes some effort to model. Unless you're at some AAA studio I don't think you can just invent and model your entire world in a unique style. That said I'd take PSX over realistic or cartoony any day.

>>534368429
>doing shitty low poly PSX style actually takes some effort to model.
no it doesn't. maybe for (you) because your skill level is low. psx does not equal low poly, btw.

>>534365234
For me it's 4 > 3 1 > 2
who's the babe on the right?

Can you stop calling every single low-poly game PSX? Your zoomer memebrain brainrot is showing

>>534365503
What is the answer? That it's CSG?

Should I develop, publish and release a game through Patreon instead of normal means? Would a Patreon-based release model have a better chance of success, particularly for more sandboxy games?
Unrel pic attached just cause

>>534368429
The problem with using anything super realistic is that everything in your game needs to match that visual style or else it's going to look like a cheap asset flip.
99% of games that use metahumans look like shitty asset flips.
The exceptions (i.e. Clair Obscur, Robocop) are the games that are able to match the high fidelity of the assets in their original assets, animations, voice acting, UI, etc.
Going the realistic asset path is something I would never recommend to anyone.
You're better off running the high fidelity realistic assets through an automated LOD program and using them as PSX style assets.

>>534368880
The problem is that there is a clear quality difference between PC retro and PSX. Like a LOT of PC retro stuff is actually pretty well modeled and textured whereas PSX games actually look like shit most of the time.
Possibly because PC Retro includes games made in the early 2000s.

>>534369192
ya thats kind of my point. realistic stuff is intrinsically pretty asset flippy if you're a solo dev. I don't know how you avoid that problem. I think there's enough anime style shit that maybe you can build and modify enough assets that you have a pretty solid world that looks more uniform and less asset flippy. but I think the skill level to do it with realistic assets is sort of impossible.
>>534368647
look up real studio pipelines. its pretty insane it could take months to do 1 single gun in their unique style. if you're putting that level of effort into any single asset as a solo dev you're not gonna make it.

You really don't need to do something all that unique art wise.
Celeste, Hotline Miami, Look Outside, Undertale, Deltarune, etc aren't doing anything that special in terms of their visuals. They're just solid fucking games.

>>534371576
Thanks! Took a bit of time to polish it up. Doing some stuff now to have one of the characters do a bit of aura farming

>>534372028
NTA but it really depends. There are some hero assets that actually do take months to create. Main characters, first person weapons, cars in racing games, etc.
That's really not the norm though. Most environmental assets are on the scale of days to weeks. I remember the Battlefront presentation saying about 3 weeks for an environment scan to in game.
Gran Tourismo apparently takes about ~9 months per car.

>>534372936
>Gran Tourismo

Grand Autismo

>>534372936
I was wrong.
About two weeks using a traditional workflow and about 1 week using a photogrammetry workflow (not including actually flying out and taking the scan).

If you're sculpting and doing PBR texturing you've probably gone too far in a few places.

I mostly do hard edge, don't need to sculpt and pbr texturing is really easy just use substance. pirated copy works on linux 4 me.

It's not about whether creating an individual asset takes a long time.
You can smart material your way to decent looking realistic looking models with just a bit of effort.
It's actually about setting up a quality bar that is too high for the entire project.

Post your high concept 3d dream game (premise at least)? I'm interested.

Steam isn't giving any impressions at all, I'm not sure what is happening with it for what the impressions are stinky. It's only getting 20-40 impressions per day with the optimized tags. For impressions out of anything else I've released it's less than half of the second worst pre-release steam page I've made. I did a 20 dollar marketing campaign with ads and it does get clicks from it. I wanted to do it to see what was going on in a little more detail. I'm going to guess when the Steam Fest happens eventually it will explode with impressions.

I'm not going to worry more about it until closer to release. I should focus on other things with the game way more.

>>534377239
you've never made a multiplayer game and i bet your game doesn't even run at 120fps, interpolating packets and dealing with desync and tick delay isn't trivial, at all

You're missing the point. This guy has 0 programming or gamedev experience.

>>534383091

>he could do the same by copy pasting code from various sources
in <3 hours? he wouldn't know what to copy paste or where to put it.

>>534383252
No they won't. You're jumping to absurd conclusions. Prompting like that can only get you shallow Kenyan helicopter -esque games at the current power of this technology. On top of that it depends on what the "market"(place) is. Steam might allow super shallow games like this only until a certain point when they realize maybe prompted game #4829573882 isn't really worth it. Again the point is you have jumped to a nonsensical conclusion

Another thing is that it really doesn't matter, I think this is generally what I'm trying to say with my post. You say "it matters" but I say it actually doesn't, no one really cares for such "games" that are essentially prototypes with actual assets. No use in worrying about it.

@grok is this true?

While it's unlikely that AI will completely "take over" game development in the sense of replacing all human creativity, it's already becoming an increasingly integral and transformative tool in the industry. The future of game development seems to be one where AI and human developers work in a symbiotic relationship, with AI handling many of the more repetitive and time-consuming tasks to free up developers to focus on creative and strategic aspects.

Wtf is this problem? Just copy A into B, then B into C, and it will have sorted itself. Since you do it from top to bottom into B, which reverses it, then top to bottom again into C, which reverses it again, causing it to return to normal.

>>534403063
This isn't how towers of hanoi is supposed to work; even if you weren't allowed to copy the array and could only access the top element like a stack, you could just push them in order onto B and then from B to C.

>>534411058
>Why would it be a bad thing? People getting together to play games... that is literally almost every single game out there, video games were the exception in being singleplayer.
Because it causes degeneration and eventual death of the medium. Let me explain it with a similar situation to movies.
In the early 2000s, cinema started shifting from grandiose auteur works, to mass market slop. This culminated in college comedy movies and disney "for the whole family" type shit. These movies started getting bad, but people like you wrote it off as "eh, they're fun to watch with friends". And now, fast forward to 2020s, and where is cinema now? Essentially dead. All the competent filmmakers left, and only the slop-minded, money-oriented retards are left who can't produce a thing. Wokeness and COVID didn't help things either but they obfuscate the real issue with cinema.
Same thing WILL happen to games if this trend continues. Making (good) games is time consuming and expensive. Many devs fall into the trap thinking of "I'll just make some shitty sloppa to get money, and then I'll make my dream game!", but the reality is that this isn't what happens. You condition yourself to only think in the terms of friendslop style design and how to make the most money, your actual creative capabilities get atrophied and by the end, you end up hollowed out and you don't even care for your dream anymore.
AAA has already went through this, and so it's in such a shit state now, and for me it's disheartening to see indie games, the once bastion of expression and creativity, go down the same shitter where cinema and AAA games went.

Trying to reduce the machine gun units DPS without just numerically gutting their scaling, recalled an idea I had a in the early stages, of making those attack spray. Prototype
>random deviation from target position
>more deviation possible if the target is further away
>impacts deviate roughly left/right from the target
>can hit different nearby units if they don’t hit the target
>larger units logically eat more hits
Looks kinda workable, just wish I had a good sprite effect for a bullet missing and hitting the ground.
I was also thinking of making a more real "hitscan" spray, where bullets would fly in trajectories. It could look kinda cool, and for the unit in the webm for example it would make sense if it can only hit enemies in the first row. But some of the other MG units are larger and shoot more from above (MG mounted on a pickup), so this prototype impl would suit them fine.

>>534411572
I guess you're right. I did contradict myself after all with my comment. Video games were the exception, so they should stay that way. I think multiplayer games are still good but you're right in that it might be a "slippery slope" or whatever

>In the early 2000s, cinema started shifting from grandiose auteur works, to mass market slop.

>>534411905
>Video games were the exception, so they should stay that way. I think multiplayer games are still good but you're right in that it might be a "slippery slope" or whatever
The problem is not necessarily in the multiplayer aspect itself, and in the "it's fun with friends" aspect. Any problems and design flaws of the product are waved away with "oh it's fun with friends".
>Game is super buggy and unplayable? Oh whatever, it's fun with friends.
>Game has shit, anti-fun design that only infuriates you? Oh whatever, it's fun with friends.
>Game is so unoptimized it might be a literal miner or a virus? Oh whatever, it's fun with friends.
You see where the problem is now? Anything is fun with friends. But because all the bad parts get obfuscated by it, they get normalized and eventually bleed into normal stuff as well. What will happen when friends will no longer be around, and all you'll be left with is some shitty games that you can't enjoy on your own? Well, nobody in this world ever thinks that far ahead so basically nobody knows.

>>534412363
I don't know. Bukowski said "yes put it up as early as possible" but the biggest boost in visibility and wishlists I ever had was the first 2 weeks of putting my game up. Haven't gotten a spike as big ever since, probably because I only have 20 followers on xitter. I imagine if my game looked better I would have had more wishlists, and if my game looked worse I would have had less (duh) but even if I make my game look better now, I'm not going to get the same people to give my store's page a chance again.

Yeah I think I understand what you're saying. I'm not exposed to the gaming culture so I don't actually know what the market trends are (yeah I make stuff only I want, whatever) but do you think people will start seeing these games as the standard of "good"? Like since they're so fun (with friends) and how well they sell and all that. I think this might be the only problem, because if people wrote it off as rightly being sloppy it wouldn't be an issue.

Yes. Most people do not think critically about the games they play. There's a very good reason as to why gamers are commonly stereotyped as being "low IQ".

You're stupid. Nobody's saying good games sell zero copies. They just sell 1/5th of the copies they could have sold

Why did he start listing off 2D pixel platformer metaphors for depression when we asked for good games?
