Kasha recap post.

I have this catgirl character named Kasha who I want to use in a number of game projects. I've been building a universe with her since I was in junior high - I think I've had this character for about 24 or 25 years by now. She is a small catgirl with a magic shapeshifting tail who likes playing ball games and lives with a giant tiger woman named Milchi.

I have a bunch of Kasha projects being made.. Don't know which to focus on. Wish I could just focus on my fighting game. But I know that if I don't focus on making and releasing a game as complete as I can make it then my fighting game has no hope of being good.

I have three projects with my catgirl in various states of development.

Kasha vs Kritters - arcade style game about defeating enemies, actively in development, several levels and enemies are made already.

Hole-in-Nyan - 3D PS1-style minigolf game, prototype made godot. Trying to figure out how to proceed, want to learn 3D gamedev pipeline.

Untitled Kasha "Big Platformer" - this one's a larger game. It is an action platformer in the style of Super Mario World where Kasha treks around the country in search of her mama and meets several adoptive mamas. It's a big classic adventure where she turns her tail into stuff.

https://psychojosh.itch.io/kasha-catcha - Tiny gamejam game I made with Kasha/Milchi.

https://psychojosh.itch.io/kasha-vs-kritters-alpha-demo - Demo of KVK.

Now that I have scared away all of the nodevs, you'd better post some serious progress in the latest organized Demo Day.
>>538094861
Neat.

>>538094441 (OP)
kino, if only the dev wasnt a skitzo

Total tranny death

>>538095182
I exude Denis Dyack-esque energy most would find disturbing.

XHE won, we all have to kneel

Bart silkson
Thats it. Thats the meme

https://itch.io/jam/agdg-demo-day-64/rate/3078532

Updated the demo to increase difficulty. My suspicions were right, the game is too easy and skill ceiling too low. I'll have to work on the latter after DD is done.

>>538095639
you exude autist virgin mutt energy

>>538095758
so this is what you did instead of setting up a collab huh
fygoon predicted this btw

>>538095758
skill ceiling is more about giving the player tools to work with than making the game harder, you just need a lot of room for improvement and for that improvement to feel satisfying

>>538095991
You exude loser living in his mama's basement energy that everyone finds disturbing.

>>538096062
so huh the jenny dev was a shartdew modder huh? >>538082552
i knew he was more histrionic than the usual whodev

>want to make eroge
>terrible at illustrating
what if I make a text based simulator like DoL?

>>538096248
you will call me loser but you will never call me wrong

>>538096348
You are wrong.

>>538095639
wow this looks bad
>>538096348
you're wrong

overworld with a number of dungeons, like zelda

or

dungeon, after dungeon, after dungeon, like gauntlet?

>>538096471
nah

>>538096307
that mod is fanart

>>538096564
depends on the feel you're aiming for, overworld is a lot more adventure-y but a series of dungeons can work depending on what's going around thematically

Reminder that Fygoon threads usually get deleted by jannies and you should all know better than to post in one

It's me or demo day is dying? Less and less new games and comments...

>>538096734
Reminder that the only reason why these threads get deleted is because of losers like you who can't stand to see me make a thread.

bnnuy

bro i did 3 prompts, wtf
like seriously im worried about getting too used to claude code and then they turn it off, i dont want to go back to writing boilerplate and tests myself

>>538097304
why would anyone want to watch a cinematic instead of playing the game

>>538097304
kino and GMI energy if im being honest

>>538097304
Man it's crazy that people still use poonity after what they did, no wonder politicians get away with murder.

no comment

>>538097797
I've never met a lizard fag that wasn't an annoying autist on the internet

>>538097991
What's with all the dirt specks?

>>538097216
/agdg/ is reclining...

>>538098623
reclining in my chair

>>538098623
i look like this

I only started work on my game only 3 weeks ago and don't have enough of a prototype for this demo day.
Really wanted to have a working prototype but as it stands there's basically no game to my game.

>>538099498
Post it anyways. You should have seen what I was hocking during my first go.

Gun to your head:
If you dont make 3 games before december i will find you and kill you

>>538096314
At that point just write a book.

Alice game versus Blackwell game, who is the better roguelike?

>>538096314
Just learn to draw, retard.

>>538101010
Narnia game.

>>538101162
that's traced from a real pic btw

>>538096314
what's DoL

>>538101382
True, I'm the guy in the picture btw.

For those who've downloaded shrimp game in the last 5 or so hours, disregard that build. It was a debug build that only had one dungeon
Carry on anons

>>538100768
books aren't INTERACTIBLE
>>538101162
don't have the time to seriously practice as of now at least, the hope would be for volunteer artists to take interest like what happened with DoL modding
>>538101494
mostly text-based rape victim / orphan sim, I'd probably go for the inverse since there's a billion eroge where you play as a girl and get fucked

>>538097241
I honestly couldn't care less but you are in a constant state of ban evasion so I fully expect the threads you make vanish at some point

>the hope would be for volunteer artists to take interest
do codemonkeys really?

>>538102610
subhuman """""""artists""""""" be like:
>I WANT RECOGNITION AND POPULARITY AND ALSO BEING PAID BILLIONS WITHOUT ACTUALLY HAVING A HISTORY/RESUME THAT WILL BACK ME UP AS RELIABLE AND NOT LAZY WORKER!!!

>>538102610
my real game has soulful coder art but that doesn't fly with eroge, anyways crab show your game blah blah blah

uh oh , codeschizo melty

>>538103549
You want to get raped, bitch? Wanna be fucked in ass and cummed inside?

>>538103006
Peripeteia?

Why does the pixel game have the Mother 3 font? Does it look weird to you as well?

>>538094441 (OP)

how's the demoday 64 fanart compilation going?

Alot of these demo days game pages need to have a video or atleast picture showing gameplay. Im looking at the page for Dark Grace and all I can see 3 pictures of hallways and one of the picture has a knight to the side.
The info shows there's combat, inventory, items, weapons and a mysterious plague but i dont see it. No video at all just a download button. I know devs here know what a good game page looks like, why ignore that important part of marketing?

Dog ai was too buggy for multiplayer so i opted to just making it a glorified sprint.

>>538108523
why would anyone play this over onirism

>>538108523
Nice, the dog spawning animation looks clean.

>>538104245
yes. I hate that shit. make font tiles nigga. find a font you like. type the alphabet out on notepad or whatever, sceenshot that shit and open it up in your art program, cut them letters up and scale to your tile size and trace/tweak. then write a system to take text and display your tiles.

>>538108713
Where's my fanart tho? You still haven't drawn me fanart

How many AI voice actings am I allowed to use before the Agdg discort bans me?
It can't be 0

>find artist on bsky that's way better than me
>also 8 years younger than me so I can't cope with "I'm still learning"

>>538109634
You do know you can just kill him, right?

>>538109634
I used to be one of those young artists better than artists 10 years older, but then I got 10 years older too and the level of skill of young artists got even higher. maybe they are all cheating nowadays, damned kids!

>>538109634
It's tough but you probably can draw well enough to make a game while AI will make artists obsolete now/soonish depending how one looks at it both 2d and 3d while jack of all trades types those who know enough but don't have enough practice are the meek who inherit the earth we'll just grow stronger as they rope.

>>538108523
why would anyone play this over square hooligans?

I miss making games with you lads, now I just waste my days doing nothing at all.

>>538109634
Tolkien didn't write The Hobbit until he was in his late thirties. The story was shit, sure, but it did irreversible damage to fantasy writing as a whole.

I put the blame on Alexandre Dumas. Tolkien was pretty based even if his most popular stories are hollywood tire on the surface.

>>538115147
LOWER THE SENSITIVITY BITCH. IT'S YOUR GAME

>>538115271
>pc inputs but the camera is so slow?

It was a bad idea to not reschedule DD64 after Silksong's release announcement

>>538115491
Didn't you hear? Everyone here hates Silksong anyway, so it never mattered

>>538115552
I like it. my next game will be a silksong-like but with harder platforming so exploration is a pain, and bosses will kill you in only 3 hits.

>>538115095
Based bunny dev grinding cold baths.

is ultima an immersive sim

>>538094441 (OP)
I'll stream some games later when people woke up.

>>538119964
WOKE?!?!

What game should i play

>>538120112
wokeslop

>>538120112
something that's not mobilecoded or consolecoded

Bros, I don't see a world where the dev bends over and gives us a bigger font...

>>538120576
transcore...

unity takes fucking ages to load a project and constantly crashes but it has good assets so I guess it's better than godot

What do you call this type of water in games? A "Water Material" or "Water Shader"? I keep getting confused on which term is more appropriate to say or are they interchangeable?

>>538094441 (OP)
guy making the godhand-like here. Haven't posted in ages but I've been working the entire time, just not on "fun to look at" things.

>made my own pathfinding system that's super light. No nav meshes or nav agents.
>switched enemy rigs to AutoRig Pro (protagonist still on Rigify, I'll get back to that)
>systemized movelist creation so now I just drag and drop saved moves onto an enemy and it'll automatically load up the animations and have all the relevant data
>adding/removing moves is dynamic, as it automatically updates the enemy's movelist
>moves have a weight: the higher the weight, the more likely the move will be used

Can't show much because I changed the design of the enemies and I feel it's kino now. Don't want someone faster to copy their design y'know.

Anyway I will now, completely unprompted, shill autorig pro:
>the exporting phase isn't complete fucking torture
That would have been enough, but it's actually really good. Just one click and the super complex rig is game-ready and in Godot immediately.
>IK and FK switch doesn't make me want to contemplate murder
Again just that would have been a huge improvement over Rigify, but it goes beyond and has an amazing IK-FK switch.
>has a control for closing and opening the fist
I kneel.

Yes yes it's paid, but damn it's worth it. Goes on sale a couple times a year, watch out for it, I recommend it.
If I had to nitpick, I preferred Rigify's feet controls.

>>538120865
Assets like what?
If you mean 3D assets then those are only good for prototyping

How do people normally add a body to pathfinding in godot? So the thing like doesnt choose the shortest path possible because it doesn't have any width or height so like half of it's body is behind navigation map?

>>538120937
Interchangeable, but shader is the technically correct term.

>>538094861
>Muscle girl x loli pair
This is good and I hope the best comes for you.

>shitsong is only 83% positive
>the devs still made 20 million each yesterday

capitalism truly is clown shit

>>538123481
Theres a point where too much media coverage will draw people who won't like your game. There's nothing you can do about it and at the end of the day if its good enough and the game sells then its a win.

>>538122570
What the hell are you talking about?

>>538121316
I've bought one of these blender addons before, the problem with them is the same as with godot addons; blender updates so fucking often that it's out of date immediately.

Coincidentally it was a script that ripped out the DEF bones and put them in their own skeleton to make exporting to godot easier and I can't even remember what version of blender it was for anymore.

>>538094441 (OP)
Why is there 2 thre-
>one is filled with toxic whodev pajeets talking to they/themselves
>the other filled with real discussion and comfy anons doing mild jokes
Ah i see now

>>538108523
Looks very polished already

>538124318
This retarded subhuman tranny seriously thinks a faggoon thread is good.

>>538124138
This one's popular enough that it'll get updated, plus you're not forced to update Blender.
In any case you do you

>>538120937
Not interchangeable. If it moves or deforms the vertices then it has to be a shader. Materials can't deform vertices.

>>538121357
For me, it's unreal. I don't need unity assets but I need game logic plugins.

>>538124819
Interesting, what kind of logic plugins does UE offer?

>>538121316
I have no real interest in the gameplay but the title is so legendary that I am glad someone is attempting to continue it's legacy

>>538124940
Thanks anon. The biggest hurdle so far is making a shitton of animations but I'm getting there

Made some progress, the portal now actually leads somewhere. Testing out some ideas for the area on the other side of the portal

>>538094861
Not a fan of your style but I am a fan of the autism
>>538124876
Turn based stuff. Particularly tactical likes that offer free roam. Also I use quite a few of its animation tools. I guess the biggest issue is that unreal plugin parallel compatibility is a mess since you have blueprints and c++. Ime a codelet though so.

>>538125391
I learned to code in a year. Can't picture myself ever getting into blueprint, that whole logic gate shit filters me hard.
Code is so fucking easy. Just learn it dude

Looking at silksong reviews it really feels like they didn't test balance, difficulty or progression systems at all. Its good to know even people that made it screw up these things.

HAVE YOU EVER GAMEDEVIN WITH YOUR LIFE ON THE LINE!!!???

>>538125319
ludo

>>538125319
reminds me of woodpecker

>>538126213
>my wife
oh nice

>>538125847
feels like they tested it with hollowknight nohit speedrunners and spent the whole dev cycle looking for ways to screw them.
>you thought that level was too easy? try it now...
>JAJHAHAHH GOTTEM!!! YOU NEVER SAW THAT TRAP COMING LLALAAALALA

>>538125847
>>538129049
that's based. Hollow Knight gets piss easy by the end when you've basically mastered the movement and combat. I'm glad they kept building up the formula instead of leaving it to stagnate

>>538125319
Very nice

Am I correct in understanding that I can use SubscribeStar for a 2D loli erotic visual novel using AI generated art as long as I dont actually post any loli content to SS and link everything offsite?

>>538129229
being difficult isn't necessarily good game design or a new formula. it's a bit cringe sensing the developers hand so much instead of being immersed in the world.

>>538129743
The game is more complex and demanding, which is fine after Hollow Knight. It would have been worse if they didn't advance in any way since Hollow Knight was already too basic

>>538129743
I think the game should just have a difficulty setting

>>538126565
>>538129494
thanks!

>>538128789
you can see it if you search hard enough

>>538129880
I was against a difficulty setting in sekiro, but I'd accept one in silksong.

>>538129049
>>538129743
>Game is hailed to high heaven for never bending to anyone, not fans wanting an early release, not Netflix asking for a show, not concernfags asking for a $25 price

real in your head?

>>538129049
nigga its day 2

>>538129865
it didn't advance it, it just changed focus to action instead of rewarding exploration. you can play silksong for 15 hours and find nothing of note in terms of upgrades or anything.

>>538131636
Anons clapped at the sight of this, at least 30 threads that day. The difficulty is just the dark side of the unbudging developer.

PLAY MY GAME BLOODY BASTARD

>>538131836
oh that, I thought you meant hoards of people begged for an easy mode in hollowknight or something.

you just hate hollow knight cause its a little white guy like me and not a nepobaby made dark skin DEI protagonist tough

>you didnt submit your game hour 1 of day 1? good luck getting any play and comments as people burn out from playing the same games
Can we address this problem?

>>538133239
if your game was cooler then people would want to play it

>>538133292
Fuck you crab.

>>538125847
Considering how mainstream the game is at least 80% of the players have an IQ in the double digits. Hard to take feedback from the average gamer seriously when it comes to things like challenge and progression.

Update about the rpg with genshin aesthetics I'm making. Shits hard. Scope's too big. But I slog

>>538131530
I simply cannot imagine waking up in the morning in order to work on an inferior copy of an existing game for years on end. And why is it always a platformer or metroidvania? It's part of the gamer midlife crisis starter kit at this point.

>>538134145
>I simply cannot imagine waking up in the morning in order to work on an inferior copy of an existing game for years on end.
99% of devs do this tough

>>538134145

>turd strike's slow molasse gameplay being compared to CHUDsong
come the fuck on

>>538135694
I'll come when I'm ready

a game about *crickets*

we'all playing silksong
i wont dev until i finish it

Why are there 2 aggy threads?

>>538140430
one is made by a tranny.
one is made by a resident schizo fuck

>>538142072
How big is the tranny's dick and how racist/antisemitic is the schizo? That'll decide which thread we should use.

>>538125319
Nice.
>>538121316
Oh shit! It's good to see you again and I am glad that you are still making progress.

YOOOOOOOOOOO SILKSONG IS A FVARKING MASTERPIECE

>>538106293
you have a point anon. i have no idea what im doing desu. truth is i never started making this game with the goal of selling it. it's also very early in development and so many things are subject to change that i dont even know what to put there yet. even the itch.io plot is a very loose idea of what i want.

>>538145156
I use talking animals as a commentary on racism without offending either side of the political spectrum. How I lean personally is not your concern.

>>538103951

>>538158671
Also, looking at that and some other games, allow me to throw up some thoughts that you can all readily shoot down if they sound wrong. So is it a thing where the way that people bullshit colossal maps with regard to space travel is generally via instancing out of the atmosphere into a separate map via a locked in "jumping to hyperspace" loading screen and having a slanted scale where movement is actually very stilted, but it's made to seem fast via things like speed lines? So you can have a relatively small map instead of something with coordinates in the billions? Am I missing something?

>try the UE5 Lyra demo game
>PC is too much of a toaster to even run it at low
If the intent is that I should abandon UE5 for something that actually understands where priorities should lie, I'm starting to get that message.

you are offered two choices and one optional luck-based strat in this life
a) late stage "capitalism/socialism/corporatism whatever that system is" induced depression
b) risking becoming homeless only doing what you feel like at any given moment (homelessnes might be avoidable with neetmaxing, although that could be cut off at any moment if some government worker decides so)
c) being a nepobaby

>>538165870
I mean you can just start from a blank project adn turn off a bunch of the stuff that makes UE5 require more processing/gpu resources.

It's more or less what I did.

I went to video game design school, son.

>>538184327
I don't recommend this unless it's a good university

There's still time left so far nobody's gone for it, though there was some mix-ups with the threads. If you added it to your game, let me know again.

Demo Day 64 is here, and you'd like to get something back from all your hard effort.
I will make a generous donation to your demo if you add a screen at the beginning that says "I'm a farty fart man with a big smelly butt that smells like farts". It must be unskippable and stay present and visible for at least 5 seconds.
Note that for any qualifying games I'll be waiting a week to make sure you don't just immediately replace it.
I don't want to list an exact amount, because a game where it really doesn't fit in, or going "the extra mile" (fart noises in your soundtrack, especially in a serious game, things like that) will be rewarded more heavily.
Life handed me some bounty with Bitcoin and GME, so I'm more than happy to "give a little back" ;)

Humiliate yourself for money.

>How do I sign up?
Just add what I said to your game, and post in the thread at some point: "I'm a farty fart man with a big smelly butt that smells like farts" with a link to your game. I have something that will be looking for exactly that phrase.
Add additional notes if you have any such as "I added a fart sound to my music" and how it can be heard for verification.

>>538225705
What does 70 loc mean?

>>538225786
loc means lines of code

>>538225916
your game will be done in 10 yod (years of development)

>>538226034
My single-room single-player offline MUD is already finished in under 70 loc.

the code is easily manageable, I just don't feel like coding this game myself

>>538225705
brings me back memories of making a text adventure in xna as a kid lol

I'm trying to think of ways to make it easier to tell which character is speaking, besides just the name at the top of the textbox. I'm thinking either (1) a small picture of the speaking character's head near the textbox or (2), a small triangle at the top of the namebox that points to the speaking character, almost like a speech bubble. Any suggestions?
I guess another option would be to brighten the speaking character and darken all the others, but I'm worried it might get jarring, switching all the time.

>>538225178
why are you making a popeyes game cris

>>538227017
I like the original.

>>538226716

Lines of Color

>>538227220
I've looked at a few different games. Tales of Symphonia does something kind of similar to picrel (which is basically (2) in my other post). The only problem is, in Tales of Symphonia, the speech bubble is always above the character, so they can move the triangle around freely. In my game, the textbox is always going to be in the same spot. I could maybe combine the two: put the triangle on top of the namebox, and then slide the namebox around the top of the textbox so it always points to whoever is speaking. But I'm sure there are other options.

>>538189581
I used to make people stick their dicks in jars of mustard or pour ketchup in their hair for steam games, but you've taken it to the next level. I am in awe anon

Good idea, good enough for now since it's something that won't be seen too close, hopefully someday I can get a real artist to do a better job.

>>538227840
A real artist like cris would never produce slop like mine. Also, I don't think his computer can handle sculpting details

whos streaming?

>>538231094
no one streams or does fanart anymore. it's literally over. there will be no DD65.

>>538229567
thats a lot of work to keep it sync'd with whatever is going on, small portraits ist the easiest way its quite a simple implementation too

>>538230781
looks pretty good but idk about the arms being the same palette, having it be a different standout color would help imo, you should try it

>>538230781
boring colors on boring design, add another palette

>>538231669
So something like this?

I spent years working on my roblox game and made thousands of dollars from it, but nobody wants to hire me :(

>>538226716
Did you try color-coding the text for each character?

>>538231559
Glad I said "fuck it" and submitted to the last one.

>>538231771
I think the arms will be shiny black, if I can figure out a shader to get them dripping/trailing tar that'll be cool.

>>538225705
>I don't think this thread is breaking any rules so I'll post in it
That fag will find a way to make this thread break the rules (he'll probably post illegal material)

>>538119586
That's more Ulillillia.

>>538233663
That probably wouldn't work. The game has a LOT of characters, and I'm using a 16-color palette.

Nigga that's Wizards. An absolute Fygoon classic.

Is it possible to make games with godot without ever touching gdscript? It looks kinda like python so i assume its gonna slow everything down and make and game run at 2 fps.

Good morning friends. I'm new, going for a Dungeon Keeper / idle game kinda thingie. I'm a week into the project. C++/OpenGL, my own graphics code.

>>538234951
Oh, word? In that case maybe you could have the important characters have colored dialog and everyone else just use white.
Just spitballing.
>>538235030
Technical debt? What do you mean?

>>538235115
This is very impressive when you consider this is your own engine. Great work.

>>538136091
Ok

>>538239505
In VNs they will usually make the speaking character lit up and the others dimmer

>>538241470
That's a bit harder for me to do, since I'm only using 16 colors (although technically there are a few places in the game where I'm using transparency, so I'm kind of cheating). But I like the icons. I'll make a few more and post them here to see what everyone thinks.

Very basic room system is working.

>>538235115
Very nice. I always wonder why the Dungeon Keeper-likes never took off. Those first two games were special.
I know there were a few revival games recently. Never played them because they looked like pale imitations without that Bullfrog magic.

Currently implementing the job system for the "characters" (currently just the blue dot) and tying it to the pathfinding. I really liked Tower Wizard and these kind of clicker/incremental-like games. Maybe going in that direction

War for the Overworld is the big "spiritual successor" game.
Adding the incremental stuff sounds like a good twist though. Would help give the game its own identity

>>538247139
Why? it's the biggest game platform in the world and saw more players than fortnite. My game has seen more activity than games by actual indie studios. I also have more daily active players than some AAA slop

By using a prefab engine I would have taken a month reading, and the result would have a tenth of the performance and 100fold the necessary size. I know what I'm doing

procrastinating all day just to crank out a super productive 3-5 hour work session before i go to sleep feels like goku charging up a spirit bomb right before the bad guy's about to destroy an innocent village or some shit
why does this feel so intuitive?
i won't change, because i'm still meeting my productivity goals
it just feels correct to reserve my energy for the final possible moment
this even worked when i was studying in college, although due to the increased workload, i just had to end my procrastination a bit earlier
something about enjoying life while you can, and leaving the work for when it's undeniably critical, just feels right
the only time i can't do this is when i'm creating assets, since the artistic process takes long as fuck if you actually care about the quality of your work
but for everything else, so far, this just works

>>538253445

good luck with development, i hope you have fun and are proud of your game when it finishes
post progress when you can, your game seems interesting

>>538253601
I will, thanks. Ideas on name or gameplay ideas welcome btw

>>538254368
all of my games have horrible names, sadly i can't help you there
but for game ideas, one thing i've recently noticed, which is embarrassing to admit - but my cope is that i mainly stuck to pvp games - is that people really love the process of earning resources through action, and spending it on progressive upgrades to increase their ability to earn said resources
whatever earn -> spend cycle you can come up with, would likely make the game very enjoyable to play
as for the game theme, core identity, name, story, etc, i'll leave that up to you

AI voice acting is the future of indie games. You either accept it, or get left behind and get assraped. That's all the options you have.

Dark Grace:
Combat too slow, animations too slow, too little freedom, feels bad
way too much bloom

sound effects too loud

>>538257640
Good point. I'm currently at a phase in development where my work is highly technical, and less creative. It's easy for me to get distracted with other activities, or to simply be lazy, and let a day go by. If I'm not careful, I can let multiple days go by, and when I return to working on my game, the process doesn't feel as good.
To remedy this, I try to ensure I do at least one small task per day. Even if it's as simple as making a minor tweak to a UI element, or an asset, or modifying an audio file, or even just reviewing and making changes to my notes relating to the game, it adds up in the long run. Sometimes I'll have weeks where each day, I only do minor tweaks. After this period, my energy is built up, and I have enough time to devote myself to a couple large work sessions. Without the daily minor tasks, the large sessions wouldn't have been as productive.
I think your point is valid, but me prioritizing at least one task per day definitely helps me stay on track when I get distracted or have low periods.

>>538256714
it's taken me three days to knock off one thing
and that was just changing the normals on grass, which I couldn't figure how to do without either the "point at" which wasn't 100% accurate, and I didn't like, or some add-on, which I don't like
(I just copy and pasted the vectors from an upwards-facing plane in the end)
and every time I got frustrated (within 2 minutes) I'd instinctively grab the vape or start up some game or go downstairs for a snack
I've been doing this for years
haha!

>>538258317
Do you have deadlines? If not, relax. Enjoy the process. At least you're doing something.
If you do, then that's big trouble. You might need to lock in.

no deadlines, but I don't think I'm exactly at "just enjoying it" pace either. one thing a day is the goal, I'm maybe getting one thing a week/every other week

This game's kino btw, well done to the dev. It's obviously in a very early build, but it seems to have promise. I enjoyed playing it.

Winds of Valor
- no control scheme shown, took me a while to guess F (nice meme btw)
- graphics are really terrible in fullscreen, keep these 80s boomer games in windowed mode
- even ultima had animated water
- changing mode in combat is jarring
- soulful, but fix the faces of the human sprites, dont have black gap pixels in them

Project King
- very bare bones so hard to review
- soulful ancient boomer rpg
- differences in texture resolutions is really really jarring
-no sound
- no control scheme, but guessing E is much better than F >>538262370
- skill points reset when you spend more than the last point

I have no depression or weird shit like troonism or whatever, except maybe porn addiction but even that is probably a meme since I can quit cold turkey as I am right now.
I am still as productive as I was when I had a reverse sleep schedule and gooning 3-4 times a day on average.
I honestly don't know what else I can to do improve my workflow and be more productive, the last weeks I literally did nothing but refactors and sure I fixed bugs but added 0 features since 14th of August.

>>538276851
Unlike most of these developers, I like to make content just for threads instead of cucking myself by posting another man's game.
The other, inferior thread's OP has fuck all to do with game development community on this site.

What to do when my current prototype feels too close to the gameplay loop of the game it's cloning?
I want to do something different but the original mechanics feel the best.

>>538277053
what steps have you taken to, you know, produce things?

>>538277180
Just make the story completely different, like how Rare basically makes better versions of Nintendo games (see Banjo-Kazooie, Dinosaur Planet, Kameo). If you can't do that, embrace the fact it's a clone: Gameloft did that with Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance and it was pretty good.

Hmmmmm...

Am I missing something or is Godot's tile operation logic extremely slow on top of having to deal with local coordinates vs map coordinates for quadrant? It's like this system was made by someone who never used tiles or am I missing something? I already checked the forums, reddit and stackoverflow and they all go unanswered

Alright. I need some help.
I'm trying to do status effects but I can't think of anything that feels fitting.
I have
>Bleeding (Lose HP)
>Concussed (Camera goes all fucky and makes it hard to see)
>Poisoned (Max HP goes down)
>Limb loss (Removes many moves)
I can't think of anything else that works. Any ideas?

>>538280605
there will never be a good prebuilt tile "package" because the concept of a tile is so vague and needed for like 12 different game genres.

Tired makes things "lag" or randomly speed up, for example an enemy can start its attack animation, but the first half will be slower and second half will be faster, catching you off guard. Same with movement.

>>538281982
>>538286448
You could try making them show humanity, like after going off on you, they can say "I don't recognize you" or "you've changed since something happened", sowing seeds of doubt that maybe the player character is in the wrong.

But yeah if you want to make an asshole then it's gonna be hard. It's in your best benefit to make the switch sooner than later. Famous "bad to good" characters tend to do the swap within 1-2 episodes.

>>538244786
I went into that night beaten down, depressed, and feeling absolutely defeated due to a lack of progress. By being persistent and using the AI to aid me in scripting, I basically managed to get an entire system implemented.
Ah hell. I did the Codex Gigas thing, didn't I?

>>538284982
I hate how many posters in here this represents it actually hurts

>>538286448
Douchebag characters transforming into heroes only really works for male characters. Kratos (the original one, not the crappy one that completely butchers his character), Kain, Fygoon, every single one of them begins as an arrogant fool until a great failure causes them to seek redemption. In general, that's just how men operate: our greatest opportunity to see success comes only after a catastrophic failure.
Women, on the other hand, are supposed to be the supporters to the journey of Man: they should seek to help us to improve and become better. When a woman is a cunt, that just sours her character because she is no longer a supporter, but an enemy that must be destroyed. Now, there is a fine line between making a woman character stern yet still supportive and just making her unlikeable, so be mindful of that line.

>>538287662
Thought I'd also add that, with most of the douchebag turned heroic characters, it would be beneficial to show that there is a glimmer of good embedded deep within them, protected by a shell of arrogant cynicism. With that, you should explore what caused one to turn from the light: perhaps it is his legacy that shackles him into appearing as a hardened, uncaring lord, or maybe someone in their life hurt him and corrupted them into who he is now.
Simply put, make the character complex, don't give him the simple personality of a cardboard cutout of a character. Explore what makes your character tick, and if you need inspiration, take a look at some of the people in your life - anybody can be a muse if looked at with the right lens.

I hate to say it, but it's true. Women simply have an unlikable cunt mode in the pocket, usually reserved for people they don't like, and can act bitchy with without serious repercussions. It's always there, they developed as part of socializing with one another.

They don't become fully bitter assholes like males can be, and as a result cannot change their ways out of it either. People will just know she is a bitch and by the end of the story she feels less bitchy, but that's just because of her mood, not because of who she is inside.

The hugboxed 'cord classic

Anyone looking for an artist? I'm finishing up some projects and will have time for something, would like to get more into gamedev. Most of my experience is with 2D (trad and digital) but I've done some 3D modeling.
Still putting together a portfolio and anyhow there's a lot of trolls in these threads.

If you're interested, let me know a little about your game (genre, style, engine, scope: like 6months vs 5 years, commercial/hobby, etc) and we can see if it would be a good fit and we can connect off-site.

>>538294515
lol

>>538296681
Sorry I'm not interested in using [inserted engine here]. I hope you understand.

>be me
>work on game for nearly 2 years
>slowly fight my way to 5k organic wishlists from absolutely nothing
>choose september 30th as launch date
>steam decides to have an "autumn sale" on september 29th, one day before my release
>I am now competing against every AAA game ever made being sold for 90% off
It's been real friends but I fear it is officially over for me. Maybe I will have better luck with my next game.

>>538297728
Work a little harder and release it on September 28th

>>538297873
I think one day before would actually be worse than one day after. Either way, I'm not going to be moving the date as I like the way 9/30/25 looks

>>538297728
that damn autumn happening just after summer, if only you had some way to predict that

I think the idea of a game only having success at launch is cope. You can make multiple marketing runs and if they aren't giving you anything more than at launch then most of the people that actually wanted to play your game already bought it and you're coping that something else stole your players

>>538298230
Yeah Steam has the same sales every year around the same date

>>538297728
Double down and also release on -90% sale

>>538298230
>>538298424
If you exclude sales, next fests, seasonal fests, maintenance outages, genre fests, there are about 3 or 4 days where an "optimal" launch could occur. It's pointless to plan around Steam's weird schedule. If people like a game they will buy and play it. Simple as.

>>538298624
Triple down and make it such that people must pay a premium outside of sales periods.

>>538298624
I am doing a 20% launch discount, I'm also not pricing my game at 14.99 because I think that's a bit pretentious for an amateur solo dev such as myself

>>538298745
the steamworks dashboard has a calendar showing you exactly all the events that are going to happen one year in advance, it's the first thing you see

>>538298947
It seems that you had a hard time reading my post, I don't fault you for that but I do wish you success in your ongoing quest to learn how to read.

>>538289898
Go to Hell.

>>538289898
pedo freak, leave

>>538298923
20% on launch is good decision for Steam.

>>538286309
already got brutally mogged by arctic eggs

>>538299471
We will see, my demo only has 6 minutes of content yet has an average playtime of nearly an hour among nearly 2000 unique players. I'm hoping that trends continues and I can see an average playtime of 10-20 hours for the full game on release. Steam really likes seeing high average playtime so the algorithm may throw me a bone if I can reach that.

>>538289898
diana....

guess no one is interested in working with an artist, just trying to troll me, I suppose I'll try again later

Here's another example. The character of Esther is supposed to be really strange and mysterious, so I made her icon change randomly.

>Roblox is creative and intellectual void slop for retards who don't like beauty
not at all. There are plenty of creative, niche games that you won't find anywhere else. It's certainly worse now because Roblox promotes garbage, but they still exist.

Do you really think someone would unironically respond with "But I had breakfast" to that question? You fell for the bait, you're the real retard.

My advice is to optimize.
Start by asking chatgpt how to optimize drawing many meshes of the same thing (a plant)

*instances of the same mesh

>>538315741
>>538316084
Okay I merged all the cylinders and now it takes twice as long :(

I guess I'll just have to spawn a bunch in and take a picture of it and then use a different scene when the player goes into the corn. I was hoping for fewer loading screens

>>538317104
tell chatgpt it made things worse

i realized why /agdg/ has fallen so low
back in the day we were forced to come here for coding advice and debugging. so one way or another we would post progress, even indirectly, in the attempt to fix our shitty functions, shaders, etc
now you just got AIs which can help you find bugs with decent prompts at 1% of the previous effort/waiting and with a highest success rate

>>538319335
I only use AI when google AI pops up in my face and I try to go to documentation or forum posts first. I ask advice on here every couple weeks

some men have unfortunate voices, ever watch mafia movies? loads of them have squeaky voices but they tuff sons of bitches

>>538324919
Those were actors, buddy. DeNiro is like 5' tall and a little bitch in real life.

>>538325020
they used real hoodlums as extras and sometimes actors tough
deniro is a bitch true

>>538325192
Somewhat fair but I think a better example is Mike Tyson. He sounds like a little bitch but he's anything but.

I predicted that tok would get single digit number players by the end of summer, appologize to me.

>>538326737
I always knew you were right.

pretty happy with this one.

>>538327872
that's probably your best model cris

>>538327872
is that awoken?

>>538326638
it's some sort of tranny? ftm or mtf? i never played the game but i remember the purple hair character with red jacket

i want to make a game but all game engines suck

>>538328382
Then make your own.

>>538307352
playing a game doesn't require a manual, so using a game engine shouldn't require reading documentation, you should be able to do things and they should work, why they don't is a mystery to me

>>538328539
i don't know how to code, that's the point of using an engine, everyone likes to pretend it's easy but it's super jank

>he still isnt using unreal engine

>>538327986
his best model is that frog he made last week.

>>538328379
modeled/based off a real life mtf tranny.

>>538328761
Manuals are there to help stupid people like yourself.

pretty happy with this.

its been over 1 year since my game released and i have nothing new

mitten hands would be better than 3 finger hands

>>538331349

If God turns out to be real would you plow His ass?

>>538333308
I ask myself that every morning, but I'm yet to come up with a definitive answer

>>538330690
who wants to read an entire manual just to do a specific thing, when the manual probably doesn't even cover that use case sense the engine is so modular and open ended

>>538231559
there's been fanart for every DD for a while now.

I just want to make a game like CoD1, but larger battles and less linear maps.

>>538335469
what have you made already?

>>538335639
mostly RTS and tower defense stuff. my complete inability to make models and make good animations can be covered up a little that way.

Just make the game according to your own vision. If you don't have a vision then why are you making a game at all?

>>538096314
Are you good at writing?
A text-only game like Corruption of Champions can definitely work and even become popular, but it seems most people who go that path vastly underestimate the amount of writing required to keep the player engaged long enough.
DoL uses a dirty trick to avoid that. instead of writing all the sex scenes, the sex scenes are dynamically generated. This makes every sex scene technically unique with very little writing required, but they all start to feel the same.
