My game effortlessly mogs over 99.9% of /agdg/

i love when the number goes up exponentially even though I have no idea why as I was just mashing buttons and succeeding

This coin-pushing game looks like a clusterfuck. Please tell me it's better than it looks.

BLAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

If you have genuine passion for making slot machine type dopamine triggers, go right ahead. But I have no such interest so I will not be making them no matter how much of the "meta" it currently is.

Been developing my game for about 6 months but never posted it anywhere because

...

How do I capture the minds of millions of tards like Northernlion did? Streaming seems easier than gamedev

>>536783153
>you don't need to know how to draw to do 3d

>>536783153
Nice

So the meta now is to make games where the player basically does nothing and the game plays itself?

Post progress pics of other anons you saved.

>>536783724
Be an extrovert. I'm an introvert, so streaming for more than 2 hours a week makes me go literally insane. The successful ones do it as a full-time job.

I'm still trying to figure out the moveset for a basicl 3D hack n slash.
I don't want to copy Dante's basic combos or something, I need to think of something that works given the context of who this character is

What happened to that dragon nigga?

I'm making a defense game with a doll/puppet theme (think Rozen Maiden). What name should it have?

>>536782084
I've gotten to the conclusion that points/tokens goes higher as random reward after almost getting killed is some biological imperative of humans and is basically the core definition of fun.

>>536784721
look up the name of some 17-18 century doll factory or producer.

Those are free to use and would fit your theme better than random made up shit.

Okay what do you call the stat the decreases incoming crit chance?
Crit resistance sounds like reducing the damage of incoming crits not reducing the chance of one happening
Crit evasion sounds like you're increasing the chance of incoming crits to miss

>>536785256
luck.

oh, i guess the PvP system i worked on yesterday wasnt PvP
silly me

>>536783915
You need to, but this is a simplified anime face that I made half-following a tutorial. I also did a bunch of sketches of her hair from different angles because I had a little trouble with it at the beginning. Basically it helps with understanding what should go where, even if the drawing itself is amateur
>>536784191
Thanks. I also have a robot model over here for which I'd like some feedback. I was trying to follow standard human proportions but something feels off about it, what do you think?

>>536785545
Oh shit, is that really PvP? I wasn't sure.

I've been starving for a few days now. I ran out of food and have been eating fucking lettuce and whey (mixed with water not milk) because I have fucking crippling anxiety so I can't get my own groceries.
Why did my family ditch me in this place get me enough food for three weeks and then forget about me?
I might die, cause I refuse to go outside.

>>536782649
Numbers go up and it makes money sounds while you do nothing, sounds like a gamblers wet dream.

They got fired.

Who cares if every one of these games have a "difficulty" jump halfway through where if you didn't happen to roll the "synergies" you lose, the game said I was a good boy so I am.

>>536787801
I will win. The game is rigged for me to win. I am the king in the game.

imagine if agdg actually read literature to get game ideas.

>>536787801
CORRECT
They literally maxx out dopamine produced per minute played

>>536788140

It's fine if you want Minecraft tier graphics. Nothing wrong with that if you keep it consistent. But you are giving up so easily that it's easy to extrapolate you giving up on making a game at all which is way harder - so you're likely to start getting ignored if you keep up the "guy who tries for 20 minutes before crying about not being a pro yet"

I'll patiently wait for the next non-bait nigger cattle drivel that is gonna get posted here for no reason, and see who the fuck is behind this.

>>536791371
If your introductory chapter doesn't involve gameplay then it's objectively bad. You should be able to tell the tale of your game through your gameplay.

Look at just about any Nintendo game and you'll see this.
Seriously, if the game has to change the lighting to high definition, lock the controls and hide the UI and start doing overly dramatic cinematic panning, I think you've forgotten why we're making games.

>>536789595
if you want some noob tier models I'm looking for a small project to test my modelling and texturing skills on
give me a short brief of the game, other games/media with a style you want, and a list of assets you need
Eta 2 months probably I've got a job and all

I added an inventory system and hooked it up with my UI and save/load system, added a pickup system that emulates the one in King's Field with the item hovering in front of the player and all and hooked it up with my inventory system, fixed a shit ton of bugs, polished my UI, menus, and my death animation. I'm gonna take a break now but will continue to make progress later on. I hope you're making progress too anon and not just shitposting all day.

>>536792615

I am happy because everyone loves me

You are a fucking retard and you absolutely don't know better than a fucking MIT professor.
Somewhat based to bring up Haskell, as it is the language of true chads, but if you want to learn programming python is where to start. It's much easier to learn all the extra shit you need to learn with other languages when you already know the basics with python.

Read the documentation if you actually value your time.

I'm doing manual culling (for API reasons) and I'm having trouble with shadowcasters' culling, since their box need to be extended.
Currently I simply take the Sun's direction, multiply by the shadow's max rendering distance, and extend the culling box that much. It work but result in fuckhuge cull boxes and thus not much culling.
Is that just how shadowcasters are, or is my method just fucking inefficient?

>>536793145
The series is on Computation, using programming languages. The syntax difference is trivial.
>>536794412
>Dynamic typing is ass and should not be used for learning.
The series goes over this, it also goes over the fact that python doesn't enforce private methods and variables and compels the student to use getters and setters regardlessly

Do rappers and basketball players who make millions of dollars go back to live in the same shitty hood they grew up in? Of course not, why would anyone do that? This place is the ghetto of game development, literally. You're surrounded by dozens of low intelligence, angry people here, many of whom can barely write or understand basic English.

If I make it (which I don't expect to do because I'm not delusional) I'll come back every now and then to drop a few codes, but I'm never going to publicly shout out /agdg/ or anything like that. For one, doing that is a surefire way to attract attention from the bitter losers in this general who'd be jealous of my success, and seecondly I wouldn't want to expose my normie fans to this shithole. It's like when Chief Keef fans go to O Block in Chicago and inevitably get robbed. I don't want my fans coming here and getting mentally assaulted by subhumans.

>If you make it
Answering this now is pointless, let me make it first and then we will see.

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

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

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

José, I work 40 hours a week for $20 an hour. The same hourly wage a fast food worker makes in my country, only I work full time so I have the benefit of health insurance provided by my employer (since I wouldn’t be able to afford it otherwise).
I realize that in your backwards jungle monkey nation $20 is enough to live on for a month, but here in the developed western world $50k a year (before taxes) is not a lot of money. Things cost more here, it’s not like I’m making $20 an hour and still able to pay $1 for a meal from a street vendor. I don’t go out to eat ever because I can’t afford to spend more than an hour’s wage on a single serving of food.
My rent is $1,600 a month, and that’s considered a good price for the city I live in, the only city where I was able to find a job after almost 2 years of searching. The rent continues to go up because rich yuppies across the country have recently “discovered” this city and declared it to be an “affordable hidden gem” and are moving here in droves, which the local landlords have taken notice of.
I did not choose this job. As I mentioned previously, it was the only place that would hire me. I was desperate and needed money. If I could go back in time I would prevent myself from taking the offer and keep looking, even if it meant 6 more months of unemployment and burning through the last pennies of my savings account. 40 waking hours a week, every week, are spent slaving away doing tedious work I get no satisfaction from surrounded by people I despise.
So excuse me if I hate my life.

>I'm mostly well-off due to my parents. They don't really pay for much else than the rent/bills
This lol
I remember back when the "nepo baby" meltdown was going on for the first time, watching thirdies seethe about a certain game developer's parents owning a "mansion".
My parents own a 200 year old five bedroom house they bought in 1999 for over over half a million, and a 3 bedroom cottage on a remote, mostly undeveloped lake in the mountains. They paid for my entire college tuition and rent while I was living in my grad school apartment. Same for my 3 other siblings, two of whom were in school for over 6 years earning their doctorates.
I wasn't even considered rich where I grew up. There were other kids far richer than my family, or at least they were more visibly wealthy. My parents never splurged on expensive cars or gaudy McMansions, so maybe that's why no one thought we were rich. I'm a 1998 zoomer and they didn't even let me have a phone until I turned 16, and I never owned any game consoles or a computer growing up. I just had a very comfortable life where everything I needed was provided for me. Life is good and I love my parents.

Reading a course on fairy tales, and I'm like wow, this amazing for games because of the symbolism and the story structure.

Sadly, they're 100% stuff like girls who are sexually predated and raped and killed, and stories about being ugly and realizing you're inferior to pretty people and just should accept that.

day 2 of making idle slop focused on hacking

Unfortunetly very little progress. Turned out my ui layout system I did for another game was more buggy than expected and I had to rewrite the core part. It should be fixed now though so hopefully I will be able to do more progress tomoroow.

I don't get it. Coding well has nothing to do with a fun game.

>>536808236
>you would get a job no problem
To be fair, the software dev market is not the best for juniors. >>>/g/twg is full of people who can't get jobs. I started in 2016 when there was tons of money floating around for retarded app ideas and they'd hire anyone with a pulse.

Now there's less money around, silicon valley bank went belly up and so a lot of funding dried up for startups, any potentially disruptive tech startups get bought out and neutered by existing big tech firms. Those same companies have been doing tens of thousands of layoffs every quarter since early 2022. The same visionary corpo execs who overhired because they thought lockdown would last forever are now betting on outsourcing as much work as possible to pajeets and hoping that AI will just suddenly replace devs altogether. And for at least 10 years everyone was told to 'learn to code' and they did, or at least they got CS degrees, so anyone trying to get started in a tech job has a lot of competition

So yeah its fucked.

>>536808236

Bruv I live in ENGLAND. Nobody here is a millionaire software engineer. We get taxed so much it's fucking unreal 5. Nobody even bothers trying to get rich here anymore. I'm making a game because I enjoy the process, it's honestly just a hobby.

Even if I sell 50 million copies kier starmer will personally drive a busload of hostile rapist migrants to my house and force me to give them all the money I earned.

>>536809618

>>536814865
Well, explaining it. It may seem stupid with regard to which template you start out with, but I remember something about Unreal Engine's first person mode going the route of having two separate model and animation sets for first and third person. That old chestnut. So if you wanted naturalistic movement and views or wanted to maintain presence and use readily-available animations, you'd go with third person. But I'm unsure if they changed any of that. I do remember actually getting gun sights to line up and fire straight being a pain in the ass, because, again, first person meant you have a magic first person gun rather than something realistically bound to a human form. And third person basically required absurd bullshit tweaking.

Take it one day at a time.

You don't have social anxiety you have social dependancy.
You're unable to talk to the cashier because it feels distinctly unsafe and incorrect and it's something you're tribe leader is supposed to do (interact with strangers). You're unable to get your order corrected because you're not adept at conflict resolution.
You were put into a submissive position which turned you socially weak. There is no cure. You are naturally not a leader, you need to find someone to lead you and take responsibility for you.

You just need to lock in on a narrow task once you get into it its fine, the problem is when you’re juggling too much possibility or using frustrating software like blender -> godot pipeline which is the worst thing in the entire industry

If you’re stuck with 3d shit my advice is switch to pirated maya plus unity. Maya doesnt change much between releases as autodesk are just milking it so it is more stable platform to learn and build upon than blender and unity has more mature DCC bridges and imports than godot

To the employees of IGROPROM

Dear IGROPROM employees,

I want to express my gratitude to the staff of IGROPROM for their support in receiving lootboxes with attention deficit. Dimasik-Obesik and Nubilebiev (27-cm-long cube) personally came to the exhibition to confirm that this combination works. For the last two years I have been visiting Uchet K (VRChat), and after countless visits it never crossed my mind to make a voice generator of a catgirl meow (gd which recorded entire banks of speech for games and more). That is a hundred times better than honey from eco-games and that tin can cutting through rectangular ovopolitical space!!!

Following the advice of the elders, I handed out amulets in the form of badges at the exhibition and finally stopped seeing nightmares!

Do you mean light fixtures setup? Currently I'm using Godot's baked indirect lighting, but I agree it looks a little flat. I suspect it's because the grass is instanced (can't do a static bake) and doesn't cast shadows. I'll do some vertex painting on it, so that it matches everything else better and for more variety.

this. make a vision board and put metaphysically good images of your dream life onto the board. when you're working on the game, burn incense and keep some gemstones on your computer table.
keep referring to the board as you work, and repeat a mantra that you're gonna make it.
then, ask your dad to front you some money for advertisements, a couple spots on the news, hire a private pixel art tutor, and then you're set. remember, vision boards and believing in yourself will make your game into a success.

Engineers are dime a dozen. For Eric to be a nepobaby his father would have to be an insider in the videogame industry that pulled strings to prop up his son and his game. Being upper middle class(at most) is not what makes someone a nepobaby.

Btw Microsoft also promoted Fez and Braid at that time, now without all the promotion (ofc the market changed too) the Braid remaster flopped, makes you think why Soulja boy who was popular at the time would play a shartformer on camera.

It's because you're not making video games. You waste your life dreaming about making video games, but you only have the ability to make pale imitations if anything at all. If you made any real video games, you could just slap the shit out of them with your fat stacks.

I just can't figure this out. It seems like Unreal Engine's multiplayer, in any circumstance, even when it's told directly to allow something, tries to restrain vertical movement or outright refuses to allow things to occur. It's fucking bizarre.

>>536831496
well why do you look and sound like that?

>>536799071
>will you abandon this site?
No. I genuinely enjoy this site and the only reason I would ever leave is I'm too busy. People go on about how they wouldn't want to be associated with this site is just being a massive pussy ESPECIALLY if you've made it already. And since if you don't like it, then be the change you want to see. That wouldn't happen if everybody just leaves.

Not that my opinion matters ( yet ) since I'm still a nobody but that is my truth.

>>536831450

>>536832803
Most indie devs are programmers (ideafags are not devs so they don't count). Most games require a lot of art so they're "in demand" in the sense that people want one, not that anyone can afford one. Music is also in demand but more affordable.

huh?

Good game designers are on short supply, even in AAA. The SH2 remake, for example, makes such basic mistakes in design that it's baffling. Like, did nobody notice that making item pickup be based on camera position (in a 3rd person game) is a terrible idea?

That doesn't exist. Everything is on PC now.

You don't have to clone a game that isn't on PC yet. You can literally clone Stardew Valley today and still make over $10m guaranteed. Too bad cloning SDV is far beyond your capabilities.

It just loads for me forever and then gets timed out when I'm trying to access mediafile.cc but I can get through it just fine on mobile data. I was wondering if I specifically blocked or something. I really don't want to find another pirate site for courses this is the best one so far.

>the problem is adding content. Cropolution was made in a week code wise.
that's why it's all about programming systems. Eric is technically an engine dev and has a stardew engine which is how he's making haunted chocolatier.
Yeah you could spaghetti the trash code system like in cropolution maybe even in a week of coding to be honest, but making multi-system integration is probably a year worth of coding especially if you're building your own data structures it'll take longer.
Half of stardew valley was probably refactoring dogshit undergrad code monkey systems the other half was probably eric spending over a year on shitty pixel art.

Hard truths people in this thread need to hear. Ask yourself how long you've been here? How long have you thought of making a game? Why haven't you started yet? Why haven't you finished a game? You had all that time and you did nothing with it. Why? Isn't it time to admit to yourself you are not going to make games.

>>536847163
Yet another bocchi exposed for the nodev he is.

You spent 10 years fiddling about with some engines and dreaming of making games. If you were going to do more than that you would have. Are you going to go another 10 years like this? How old will you be by then? In your 40s? Is that the life you really want? Nodeving for 20 years. Nothing to show for all those years.

>>536847410
well i'll probably finish my game eventually
idk what else to do other than keep trying even if i'm maybe not good at it

>today's screen time is 11h 23m

>yt, x, /sci/, and /vg
I'll try to work on my game for 4 hours so I can tell myself I'll get my shit together tomorrow and work 12 hours on my game. I've spent at most 2 hours working on my game daily for the last few months. I may have been wrong everyday for 4 months, but tomorrow will be different.

>>536847682
>well i'll probably finish my game eventually
You really need a reality check. Think deep on why you failed for 10 years. All the habits that prevented you from working on one game and finishing it. All the times you chose to start a new project or played some games or gooned instead of working on your game. You're that same person still. You'll do all those things again and fail to finish a game.

If you were actually trying you would have made a game even if it would have been a shitty one. The anons here who are truly trying release all these shit games. They are able to do so because they actually spend time doing gamedev.

>>536848012
You're lying to yourself. Underspace was done in like 7 years. Monomyth took a similar amount of time. Boku still has a game even if he's retarded and keeps adding shit to it instead of releasing it because he's afraid of it failing like it will. If you had spent 10 years on your one game you would have a game.

There's a lot of really dumb shit in Unreal. Any engine really but I've been using Unreal for years and I still run into shit that throws a wrench in my plans.
I'm still on 4.27 and I spent like a week programming these custom physics based vehicles but I only just found out there's an old bug with the terrain where fast moving objects collide with the edges of terrain segments and that sends my vehicle flying into the air even on flat terrain.

my game is an FPS btw though I do have in the back of my mind to add RPG mechanics later on, but not until I have finished the weapon logic that I am working on now, then I have to start on the enemy logic which I think will be the most complicated thing, how exactly I want to structure that, as I want a kind of Immersive Sim type gameplay where enemies have their own routines, but I've only ever made enemy spawn wave systems like shoot em ups use.... so.... hrmmmmmmm, I really wonder what will happen when I cross that bridge. Then once I got decent enemies I need to double check that I am happy with my scripted (non-physics based) character controller and movement system, then I need to do some game design to figure out what RPG mechanics I want. I'm not even going to get started with that now as I'd just idea guy and not be productive deving instead and also I think it is a bit too early to be able to count on any assumptions at the moment still being valid when I do it.

But I'm thinking I want enemies to have a faction relation and the player has faction status and then option objectives + dialog wheel choices affect faction status which makes NPCs switch to being mobs

I know for sure 100% that the gunplay is pure point and shoot raycast based not this hellgate london / fallout 3 suck ass bullshit where you randomly "miss" or "hit" based on dice rolls regardless of your aim as if this were DnD, that is the worst FPS RPG gimmick I've ever had the displeasure of playing

I'm thinking more like you get a skill upgrade tree to enable different mechanics like air control, double jump, regen health, stuff like that maybe

How much are you actively trying? How much of your day are you wasting it in gooning or doing whatever other thing that isn't devving?
I don't believe that you've been making stuff nonstop without progressing, unless you're a schizodev like Cris, and even he knows what he's talking about in lots of things.
I'll recommend you to do smaller projects instead of focusing in ONE GAME.
Do a venn diagram listing ALL the stuff that you do, you care and you want and start noticing patterns.
I'm a coomerdev and I use my flaws to my advantage, I also dev stuff related to gooning from time to time.

I'm 60% finished with the basemesh. I've been modelling alongside a lowpoly wireframe model to figure out how to do it but im guessing my topology is all fucked even if the vertices and edges are now almost the same.

I have also completed most of the arcade mode stage sections. Hopefully, I manage to slap everything together before next demo day.

Are there actually people here who will shit on your game for being a perceived threat?
Talk about insecurity!

The low framerate animations and high framerate explosions feel kind of off, but also cool in a mixed media sort of way. I guess as long as you consistently do stuff like that, it's fine

The animation will be used with movement and with high framerate. Low framerate was just for demonstration purposes and to find issues with separate module hitboxes.

I don't know who wrote this post but it's literally true that women think like this. Either commit and produce something worth a damn or don't bother. Women hate hobbyists

what value would that add to the game? you'd have her redrawinf every asset, for what?
what did upscaling the resolution on every texture do for Braid Analversary edition?
yall niggas got the wrong priorities from you'd get a top tier team and have them spend 80% of the time rendering individual hairs while the gameplay is not much more engaging than pong

You think too small, chump. Nothing she produces would actually be IN the game.

Don't worry about that kind of thing. The project is doomed to fail if sold units are the benchmark. However, the joy of creating the game is what justifies the effort after all.

I am no threat to any one of you
