>>538135431
oh hey another GB studio dev, a rare sight around these parts
it is very limiting, but half the fun for me is finding various ways around those limitations. it's almost like a logic game in itself.
plus it's my first serious attempt at making a game and the visual programing really helps me wrap my head around the whole thing

not quite ready to show off for demo days yet, but it's looking like I'll be able to show it for next demo days at my current rate

>>538096468 (OP)
I'm making an ARPG-ish game. If I use a camera with ortographic projection, and add a Pitch tilt, that makes the forward axis look "smaller".
Now moving "forward/backward" feels much slower than moving "right/left".
Do games normally compensate for this? I.e. scale movement to be equal in screen space instead of world space.

>>538133372
I can't answer that question and you can't answer that question either, so why are you asking it so insistently?

We don't know how much it would've made otherwise. What I made clear is that hiring a voice actor is extremely cheap compared to the game's income.

Also, just because a game was slop once doesn't mean people can't come back to it in a future update or that it can't have a second chance. The idea of early access is you split your release into two releases, the early and final release. Early access games usually get less players but make up for it once they release fully.

No more messing around. No more procrastination.
Today’s the day I finally start making my game. I will be using Gamemaker.

>>538137109
wouldn't you rather goon for 4 hours and argue on 4chan for 6 hours?

>>538137053
For fucks sake, get a grip and stop replying to this attention seeking retard. He’s posted this exact same voice acting bait in every single thread for months. How on earth you fell for it after having seen it posted hundreds of times is beyond me.

This might be the worst DD of all time.

Just curious. How many people here can program a simple loop like in sonic? And i mean an actual fully functional loop where if you dont have enough momentum youll slide back down or fall straight down from the top. With all the alleged geniuses here that should easily be within your abilities right?

>>538137636
I can’t

>>538137475
Can we kick people from Demo Days who have been uploading the same project for 5+ years with little to no progress?

>want to make an online co-op game

Surely there's a better way

I can't dev today because I'm thinking about Bundev and what a shitty deal life is overall. it's like we're living in a roguelike except you get only one playthrough. what's even the point of doing anything?

>>538138704
>pay for servers
just how many players do you think you'll have and how much will it cost per player?
a few years ago my cousin was making some online game and he paid like $6000 for servers for 3 months and he never got above 20 concurrent players. he was overconfident and he was trying to solve problems that didn't even exist.
if your server costs are high that ideally means you have a lot of players which is a good thing.

Why haven't you teamed up with your cousin?

Your WASD game now has flying with full 3D navigation. Which keys control Z-up and Z-down?
>j-just make it wasd along the plane of the camera—
BZZT wrong! This is why every flying game sucks. No flying animal moves like that.

>>538136837
It's been the most rewarding experience I've had yet because it's so easy to pick up and every little bit of progress you can immediately see

I lost my hair this year and realized that I’d “I’ll start tomorrow”’d my one and only shot at ever knowing what being conventionally attractive/hot is like.

Main menu is simple but works well enough, I like the computer stuff.
Meager options menu, can't config anything.
Going straight for mission 1, fuck tutorials.
Really loud boom on mission start.
I like that almost everything is destructible.
Some SFX are way too loud compared to others (like grabbing knives).
Some slowdowns from time to time.
You should be able to throw objects with a lot of force which would impact on other objects and do a kind of combo of property damage.
Property damage UI should remind the player of much of it they need to clear the level.
Destroying things is fun on its own but it needs more objects, more juice, more variety, maybe some "ka ching" money sound or various other sounds depending on the object being wrecked.
Overall, it's has the makings of something that could be fun but it's still lacking features and content at the moment so it's not that interesting. It needs a bit of overarching story (for background of a robot going rogue), secrets to find, maybe some enemies chasing you or even a boss-type enemy, it needs more explosions and fire, make it total chaos, people screaming.

>>538139110
The issue is that you have to incur SOME costs regardless of how few players you have or how much data is being sent, when I feel like there should be a more straightforward solution by now

>>538139182
>>538139319
Is this the 30% that's taken out of all Steam sales anyway?

>>538139907
I want VR to be as cool as it is in my head. I remember trying some Blizzard demo on Google cardboard in like 2013/14 where you just fly around on a griffin, and thinking it was amazing.
I think some lightweight AR glasses could eventually take off as a way for people to play tabletop remotely. But full VR is just not interesting. Nobody’s done anything interesting with it. Aside from beat saber there’s nothing that isn’t better to just do in real life if you’re going to have the hassle of being upright anyway.

>>538139538
just look up how outer wilds did it, it's probably the most well known indie that did this.

>>538140458
One of the few things i remember about that game is how insufferably unresponsive and jank the 3D controls were.

>>538139447
because I knew his project would flop and so I didn't want to take his money or work for free. and I told him that and he basically told me I was crabbing him so I sat back and watched his game flop hard.

up is good, it signals progress
hence why it's give UP and not give DOWN, giving UP is progress

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.

You win, congrats, these are now the controls

>>538139936
>Dirk The Adventurer

Straight away I like the old school pixelart and feel.
For the options menu I couldn't figure out how to adjust the volumes and once you enter the audio options you cant seem to leave unless you alt+f4, maybe it's not working?
Starting a game there's no indication on how to proceed, no story, you have to press Esc to proceed.
There is a mouse cursor but it doesn't seem to be used for anything.
Unconventional control scheme.
No audio for anything in the slice, no background music while in-game.
The animations seem good enough but it needs something more to catch the player, some intrigue, lead them in, make them care.
I like that the stats have so much influence on what you can or cannot do.
Overall, this is a game not made for this age, it needs more work to make the player care, you need patience to read the dialogues and explore the world and characters.

>>538143110
I rate this review as: good. keep up the good work

>>538141573
You say that like it’s a lot.
It’s the lowest of any creative industry by orders of magnitude.
Gaming is the EASIEST creative field to get into and will remain so even while every single other one is being destroyed by AI. AI can’t even consistently rig a 3D model yet.
There’s a reason there are a ton of ex movie industry people making video games. Because compared to the movie industry, finding some success in gaming is a cakewalk.

what the hell is with you faggots and your bizarre incomprehensible le heckin quirkerino control schemes? it's insulting to the player's time, shows your autism and lack of empathy for the player. why can't you just use WASD, space, and enter as the primary buttons like god intended?

i tried 6 games this demo day and every single one had retarded, idiosyncratic control schemes with no key rebinding, so i quickly dropped them. you should be ashamed of yourselves

nigga I'm boutta FREAK

>>538128558
Thank you for playing my game! I'm considering a mobile port if demand is high enough for the PC version, but I don't want to split my focus this early. I only had time to write one song before demo day, in the final version there will be more music. Fair enough if this isn't your kind of game, thanks anyways for the feedback.

>>538122471
Thanks for the review, useful notes. Let's just wait for godot 4.5 because that will have shader prebaking so the initial load isn't as bad.

Also your “100/day” number is (1) wrong, and (2) includes slop that nobody will ever play.
If you cut out 2D and hentai there are only 10 games released a day. TEN. You can’t beat ten fucking games? Imagine a version of YouTube with the same traffic, but only 10 normal videos and 90 porn/powerpoints were released a day. You think you couldn’t figure out how to become successful on that platform? Have some confidence in yourself.

>>538144226
>includes slop that nobody will ever play
this is your game. and my game.
the brutal truth is high effort is not a guarantee of any level of success.

If I never apply myself and keep doing everything exactly the same as I've been doing for my entire like I will miraculously produce a best selling video game and a woman will suddenly profess her love to me through no effort on my own part

unironically this is how it works with women regardless of effort. it's all about how your face looks and how tall you are. zero effort needed and effort makes zero difference. sorry you had to find out like this, fellow gymcels.

If you’re making a 2D or porn game then just stop doing that and make a real game instead.

The only times in my life a woman has ever flirted with me were (1) when I was wearing boots and lifts for an acting gig that made me 6’3” (I’m 5’10”), and (2) when I was briefly internet famous

>>538134974
Thanks for playing! Glad you like the visuals and music. I'm considering toning down the shop to 3 items and pieces, maybe it will open up to 6 again at round 5 when bombs start to show up. Mixing the hard Scrabble rules with roguelike chaos has been the toughest part of this. I'm still working on finding the sweet spot. Thank you for your feedback.

How do you make your game impossible to mod

who was the poster here who released a game and then made follow up youtube videos on his experience and his revenue?

>>538144226
Not sure if you're new to this website or what, but one thing that all demoralization posts share regardless of their subject matter is that they always try to use the most extreme metrics possible to dissuade others from trying. It doesn't matter if said metrics are actually true, all they care about is posting something that looks so extreme that it makes other people scared to try. You see this with incel shit all the time.
>bro look at this engagement bait twitter post where a woman said she only wants to date men above 6'
>this must mean all women think like this!!
>no no no don't look up the account and realize it's actually a parody account run by an incel
The fact that you're able to see through the bullshit and are willing to provide a counterargument is a good thing. That likely means you have the intelligence to make something worthwhile. Low-intelligence people will fall into these traps and allow them to dictate the decisions they make, which will only result in failure.
Good luck.

>get money
prostitutes will flirt with you if they think you have $500. it's not the same thing.
face is #1 but guys don't want to think about it because they can't do much about it. they can't twist reality around their height (it's easily measurable) but they all tend to think their face is above average and that it isn't the problem. for most guys their face is the main problem even if they're not ugly.

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.

>The Frydarian Tale

Finally we reach the memester's game, straight away this looks like something released in early 98 on PC. It has its charm.
Menus are simple enough, the basic stuff.
Extras has a link to a whole ass website with lots of lore and even a Tomb Raider Manor-type level to explore.
Cool ass rhyming intro and nice music, fairly simple setup.
Toggling into combat mode is unusual.
Let's just say the voices are... peculiar, enemies burn up and just go "wohoo".
Game doesn't tell you to proceed or if you can skip dialogues and cinematics, also no indication of controls.
In-game there's no way to access the options menu.
What's the goal of the game really? Just kill mobs and explore? No indication.
Camera suffers when it's against a wall making you lose track of where you're looking.
Surprisingly lots of cinematics.
Overall, it has an interesting atmosphere and visual, but it's also kinda (man)childish. Everything seems to work well enough, no real bugs but the game would probably benefit from a bit more polish, more work in the levels to add more life, places to explore or interesting things to look at.

True.
The game dev doom poster just makes me laugh because the only other creative pursuit I took seriously ages ago was writing, and despite it being the most oversaturated industry period, it was still possible. Even the “worst” game dev numbers are shooting fish in a barrel.

>>538145787
Nah, in about 2-4 years there will be a game engine designed around AI use and unless steam bans them there will be thousands of games a day.

How do I resist my urge to include erotic content and create something respectable?

>>538149884
I have settled for “make a normal game and put all the porn parts up as anonymous mods”.
I sincerely believe that AAA/AA studios’ employees also do this to a degree that would shock people. Like I think for any given game half of the porn mods are by employees.

>>538149884
Define "erotic"
Older games had tons of character designs in them which by today's standards would be deemed "coomer bait", but they were also good games. If you game sucks and you will it with coomer bait designs it's just going to come off as a coomer game.

>>538149884

>>538146880
Sweet. Thanks for taking a look at my game. If you are wondering why the Bulldogs' voices are so peculiar, it's just a case of me upholding a legacy. My first "game", Joey 3D, was built in a really basic engine called AgentCubes that features that sound in its internal catalog; as a matter of fact, most of the sounds featured in The Frydarian Tale originated from AgentCubes as sort of a homage to my first game, since both feature Joseph Fygoon as the player character. Anyway, when I was little, I got a kick out of that sound for just how absurd it was, and I added it in for when Fygoon kicked the enemy Bulldogs out of the area.
For those curious, I found the source while idly watching some Looney Tunes. Let it be known that the common Bulldogs are all "voiced" by Mel Blanc playing Bugs Bunny:
https://youtu.be/-JGQCsOT72g?si=S-tTH_U-arpr_uKV
The game can be boiled down to this: go from point A to point B and kill everything in sight. How you get from point A to point B is not so simple, as, invariably, your enemies are privy to your adventure and have put up roadblocks to impede your progress, be it extinguished power lamps, deactivated lock crystals, or simply stealing the power source of the magic gondola you need to reach the ultimate goal.
I didn't know I needed to add in a prompt telling people to skip cutscenes - then again I put so much damn time and…more time that I would much rather you all have a watch, especially since they convey important information concerning the story or how to progress in the game. I plan on adding in the ability to talk to Minister Shen (the not-Chinese Dragon because the Frydarians don't know what a "China" is) in the explorable Fortress Fygoon, but I didn't have the time to implement it at the moment; however, it should be simple as he just looks at your current progress and gives vague advice that can best be described as "fortune cookie nonsense".
Thought I'd add that there are secret caves too.

On this topic, would it bother players or cause me any trouble later if I have a male and female characters (i.e. generic guardsman) but the female character sticks her butt out a bit more in her animations (idle, attack, etc.)? It's not a complete coom pose but it's noticeably different than the male animations.

What software have you used that ever censored what you can make with it? Does Microsoft Word not let you type out "nigger"? Name one piece of software intended for creation that censors you. Maybe Roblox or UEFN but that's because it's a closed system for children.

>>538151607
Because never in the history of software before the AI spring has an offline creative software been “censored”.
It’s entirely a byproduct of the schizophrenic anthropomorphization of language models, and only very young zoomers or even alphas would think an offline creative software might have similar restrictions.

Browsing this thread is like watching your geriatric grandmother email her credit card information to a Nigerian prince because he said he'd send her millions in return.

You don't need an account to use Unreal. The difference between tool censorship and platform censorship is that one is real and the other literally does not exist. It's a very important distinction. I would be pretty pissed if blender closed because I modeled a penis or swastika.

This is probably my favorite genre of all time, but I just don't want to play this game
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2941710/Project_Silverfish/

It looks so lazy, I actually did play the demo some time ago so I am not just dismissing it because of muh graphics. But I just do not understand why indie devs keep going with this asset instead of just making bad environments and textures, I am serious, bad ones would be better than whatever this is.
But admittedly I don't have a strong argument here, technically this is bad, so why is it not fine with me? That I don't know. I wonder if there is more to it

I think that trying to make a game that's carried strictly by its gameplay is an indie trap. It can be done, but the vast majority of games like this won't be fun. Take the story pill and spread out your gameplay over a format that at least allows for a little side exploration and a little npc interaction.

>>538146880
>SHRIMP GAME

Well done menus, the important stuff can be configured.
Game has decent music, the drum&bass like while in the levels gives it both a fresh and relaxing feeling.
The lack of timer pressure also adds to that.
The tutorial is well made, explains everything, gives a bit of story and eases the player in.
Sometimes it's annoying to find your way back to where you were if you die, the direction arrow seems like it's 3D but it's actually 2D making it rather confusing in a game with 3 cardinal directions.
I found myself wanting to play and explore a bit more than the 15 mins, did the big shrimp boss to which I died, seems like too much of a damage sponge.
It's a shame it only saves if you complete the level, if you die you have to re-do the objectives again to fight the boss.
Performance seems good, some stuttering while loading levels.
My lil shrimp often got stuck in terrain while navigating.
It's not clear what happens if you die, but I noticed I lost my upgrades.
Overall, a nice little shooting game with boss enemies, relaxing, right amount of challenge, didn't run into any major bugs. It flows well enough.

>>538154172
>inspired Alice from Alice in Wonderland

>her great-grandchildren still get featured in articles in media
imagine making a game so great that one of the people you based your main character on get articles in the news about them in the year 2175.
sadly, games don't have that kind of staying power.

>>538154768
It's because the dev compromised the integrity of the game with assets. Lots of players don't recognize it as an asset flip so it doesn't bother them, but once you see it, it's hard to appreciate the game. I used to love playing those free faux-"psx" style horror games on itch.io until i realized 90% of them used assets for everything. They were using assets for extremely primitive graphics you could learn to make in blender after like 2 hours of learning.

>Maid Cafe Coop

Basic start up menu, options are not available in the start menu.
I saved a game but could not load it again.
No option to quit the game while in-game you have to Alt+F4.
The maid creator is well done and straightforward with enough options for everyone, wish it let you rotate without the slider.
In-game is surprisingly involved and everything that's there works well enough.
After a bit of fumbling it's easy enough to understand what you need to do.
The podium singing and moe moe kyun to please the customers is a really nice touch.
After you've done all that though what happens? What's the goal? Can you earn stuff?
Overall, I found myself playing more than the 15 mins but it's clear this game is made to be enjoyed in coop, possibly even while streaming - it's that type of game. There could be a success hit in here with a bit more fleshing out, this game will definitely do well in the streamer/friendslop category.

People forget that a good atmosphere/story/music is what really creates success nowadays.

No you don't understand, we can't have players host their own servers, it costs too much to develop that. This is why the Stop Killing Games initiative is so stupid. You can't expect the devs to host their servers forever, especially if that would bankrupt them.

>Skipping enemies is good because Dark Souls
I'm getting real tired of these devs copying bad design...

my download:view ratio atm is 1.2

>>538159852
I know you're being facetious but uploading your server software seems a lot cheaper than paying 6 million dollars. Why would a company not want to save money in favor of being able to dictate their servers the way they want? They have to have some monetary reason for doing this or else they're just retarded.

>>538159086
How the fuck do you get into these gamepass schemes? Do they Evan pay you or does it have to be some gacha shit?

>>538160343
What's the point of playing that game if you can just literally run through it like the game doesn't exist? This is really fucking stupid. It's not like this is some speed run glitch it's just straight up built into the game like this. Is this a demo day game? I hate trannies so much.

>Mel, the caramel dog

Barebones start menu, no options.
Still uncooked.
A basic platformer collect-a-thon with hard to reach places that requires precision platforming.
The movement and platforming feel is well done mechanically, it's not readily apparent but after a bit of experimenting you can actually hold onto the edge indefinitely and also dash with mouse1.
Repetitive, not much to do or see at the moment but the basic gameplay is there.
I got stuck in this corner and couldn't get out, that's also when I quit.
At certain angles some platforms blend in with the rest of the environment, making them invisible.
Overall, it's decent but still really barebones, will require more fleshing out of content.

they snubbed me again at the /agdg/ oscars

>>538162124
lol

>>538133273
i liked hypercoven a lot. LIMIT being so low and nontrivial to produce really sucks. And iirc not every start has the limit building. Maybe limit can scale with the number of spawners you make. I end up making enough spawners to fill my cap in one cycle. Witch king is good in combat but has almost no regen so it doesnt really feel like I can use him for anything else beside building outside of emergencies.
i also cried a bit when i realized artifacts only have 100 charges when im making 50 skeletons / minute i really didnt feel like I was getting anywhere for killing like 7 invasion gates.
building the range damage/limit buildings is impossible later when flow of enemies is constant.
I did end up playing this game the most out of all the games I tried yesterday. the clashing sprites made me smile and laugh. even if theyre temp i dont mind it.
It ended up being a fun silly game that I enjoyed a lot. I play a lot of wc3 TD and it reminded me a lot of a few.

>>538160343
letting the player play at their own pace is good, not setting an arbitrary and repetitive win condition the player has to check constantly is good.

what's needed isn't to close all the doors like isaac but to come up with a reason the player doesn't want to rush through everything and enemies that punish the player for charging without looking.

espeically if enemies are dangerous to re-encounter and you might pass by a room multiple times, you should be thinking about clearing it...
it's actually a pretty hard game design challenge.

>ROLLING BALL GAME DX: Director's Cut

Right away my first thought is "why is it called Director's Cut, was there another version previously?" If this is the director's cut then it needs to be top notch otherwise remove that from the title.
Excellent music, repetitive but not annoying.
Stylish menus, options are barebones and they cannot be access while in-game.
Two things I dislike: the grey colored backgrounds and the button hovering sound.
Too many levels and worlds are accessible right away, you should limit them and guide the player.
The dialogue system seems fine, there is however no indication of the controls anywhere I had to spam buttons to find out you can pan the camera with Q and E.
For the gameplay I feel conflicted between wanting to go fast and wanting to collect everything while also being pressured to go slow because otherwise you fall easily.
I don't know how hard it's meant to be or if it's meant to be played slowly (but there is a timer?).
The ball seems a bit too floaty and gets a bit too much acceleration at times, while others it really struggles to up inclinations which makes you backtrack to gain momentum and takes you out of the "flow".
Enemies seem rather hard to kick out of the platforms and follow you too hard, they should drop out more easily if they're at the edge and bump off harder against you.
Overall, a nice little SMB-like with a style reminiscent of old SEGA games but it needs the edges trimmed, it needs to flow better to not be so annoying.

>Galduen of the void

Still not sure what a "galduen" is, a garden, a planet?
I like the hand-made vector designs and menus.
Options have the most important settings.
Ran into a bug into the tutorial where it got stuck in the ship & production tutorial and wouldn't let me save.
There is quite a bit of ESL "englando" and turn of phrases.
It's not readily apparent what must be done once you launch into a game.
Game runs well, the graphics are nice.
If Research and Mission control buttons are so important they shouldn't be up there and so small, give them more visibility.
Since you primarily play with the mouse you should also be able to pan around with the middle mouse button instead of WASD.
I really could not figure out to play this game, clicked all the buttons, nothing does anything, passing the time with SHIFT only adds currency, can't research engine, can't build ship, what are you supposed to do?
Overall, it has a interesting aesthetic and world building, good music but it's got terrible on-boarding and explaining of how you're supposed to play, ain't nobody want to be forced to look at tutorials of their own, they should be forced while the game is being played - just my opinion.

How do I bribe my way into the inner circle?

Programmers have it better than artists.
As a programmer you can figure out if your game is actually fun pretty early on. As an artist you spend 5 years trying to make good art and animations but then your gameplay loop just wasn't that great and you still end up getting only 20 reviews despite all your hard work.

>>538169178
Except getting eyes on your game is much more important than whether it's fun or not.

Farcry meets Half-life?
Some stuttering while loading probably a Godon't issue.
Basic menus but everything is there.
No muzek.
Shooting feels nice with good feedback which is the most important, traversal of the map also isn't too annoying which is good but they're rather empty and large.
Generic aesthetics and assets but not displeasing, could do with more weird stuff.
Difficulty seems fairly balanced but there should be more healing items, fighting hordes of enemies or the boss with just 3 health is too punishing.
I liked the repairing and piloting of the boat mechanic, rather engaging.
Overall I had an enjoyable time, it still needs work of course. I think the dev should really to lean into the weird creatures and textures like those four legged critters with the mouth, that could really make it an awesome little game.

>>538164947
>Right away my first thought is "why is it called Director's Cut, was there another version previously?"
Yes, there is! It was my very first game project, simply titled ROLLING BALL GAME. Well basically it was more of a learning project tech demo kinda thing than an actual polished game. RBGDX was conceptualized as some sort of remaster/improved version. The thought process being, what would I do with it now that I'm better at making games? And also add some things I originally intended but wasn't skilled enough to make before. Well eventually, it turned into its own thing and now it's a completely different game, I just decided to keep the title as an homage.
>Two things I dislike: the grey colored backgrounds and the button hovering sound.
The menu buttons are something I intend to change, just haven't gotten around to it.
>Too many levels and worlds are accessible right away, you should limit them and guide the player.
That's just for demo/testing purposes.
>there is however no indication of the controls anywhere
Right now they're listed on the main itch page, but I do intend to include the controls somewhere in the game, probably the extras menu.
>I don't know how hard it's meant to be or if it's meant to be played slowly
It's supposed to be hard in the later parts but I keep having to make new level 1s to make the beginning easier. Starting slow is fine, going fast through a level is supposed to be for when you're good at the game/know what your doing. The puzzle is the movement itself, the player has to figure out efficient ways to gain speed on their own.
>Enemies seem rather hard to kick out of the platforms
The way it works is that if you hit them at higher speeds, you knock them back further, be sure to use your special moves to help.
>Overall, a nice little SMB-like with a style reminiscent of old SEGA games but it needs the edges trimmed, it needs to flow better to not be so annoying.
Thanks for playing and your feedback is very insightful.

Yeah if you go to the discord it's like that. You need to go to the harmony instead where everyone is nice.

More feedback, I got to round 7 again and ran out of useful letters so then I tried using something that blew up a column of letters, great I thought... it was instant suicide because without those words on the board I was scoring only a few points per turn and there was no way to get the 800 points in the turns left.

>WASTELAND BITES

Nice lofi aesthetic, I enjoy the old-timey radio songs with the desert and weird monsters backdrop.
Surprising how many different songs there are.
Menu background is cool with the flying saucer, options have what's needed.
During the tutorial the whole text should be visible, no scrollbar.
Is there some indication that Killer Korn is coming beforehand? Keep dying to that guy but it's probably because I'm so slow.
Some of the ingredients look a bit too similar like the onions and mushrooms which always make you second guess yourself and lose time, they should probably be on different ends of the shelf.
Leaving the game and starting again makes you go through the tutorial again.
I couldn't get past day 2 without dying so I'm not sure what the payout for all of this hard work will be. Demo limitation?
Overall, great presentation, music and gameplay loop but it might be a too rigid and strict to make it really fun.

I use integer constants rather than enums. if you have a problem with that, meet me in front of the gym and say it to my face, bitch.

>>538178474

Sir, this is the GAME development general. Shall I suggest a book or a movie perhaps?

Good thing you're in the gamedev general and that means you're now going to make a murder mystery game just as you like it, right?

Been experimenting with some background visuals in my game's Wizard Dance mode. In this level, he's learning how to cast the "Laughing Spell", so as your combo increases, you start seeing laughing emojis in the background (they appear each time you successfully hit a note). If it gets high enough, you'll see a large string of text that shows the laughing onomatopoeia in various languages, along with a laughing emoji. If you miss a note and your combo resets, they all disappear.

>>538180782
At their base Ace Attorney games are matching puzzles, but to solve them you have to engage with the story and use human reasoning. The story for fill-in-the-blank games is completely irrelevant.

>>538181205

OBJECTION

Why don’t gamedevs ever do podcast interviews? It seems like there should be a lot of audience overlap, but I never see them on anywhere.

>>538181365
podcasts are for losers

>>538181365
The skillset for being a good podcaster and being a good gamedev have very little overlap. There's a reason why most successful indie devs are antisocial.

>>538181013
Sorry, I should have known better.

>>538181365
going to a podcast isn't going to sell your game so the only "devs" going to those are going to be course seller youtubers that everyone is already tired of seeing

>>538181365
Most game devs are asocial dorks who can’t keep a conversation going for more than a couple minutes, let alone for an hour long podcast episode.
There’s also not that much to talk about unless you’re hugely successful and have interesting experiences to share, like going to awards shows or meeting fans. I doubt the guy who made a game in his bedroom by himself and got 2000 reviews has much to share that people want to hear.

>>538178512
>Silicon Scars (Alpha)

No intro or anything.
The loading screen says "Loading complete…" but doesn’t continue automatically, so you might end up staring at it without realizing you need to press a button.
Options have the needed settings, menu buttons could use some work.
Some kinda DOOM-like?
Tutorial is too basic, I think it could be scrapped and made in game with clues everyone understands DOOM right away.
The pistol reloading steaming is way too loud and annoying.
Lacks sounds for most things, could probably use a bit of music and footstep sound.
The tab map should be visible in full and allow you to pan around, it should also better indicate (or hide in the fog) the places you need to go or discover.
Maybe a Diablo-like map overlay would be nice since there's so many corridors.
Shield enemies are annoying and since shooting at their feet does a blood splat it's not readily understood that you're doing no damage.
Kiting them and shooting them in the back kills them fast.
No feedback when you take damage.
Overall, it's still undercooked and clearly early alpha stages, what's there is solid but repetitive, the assets look fine, the shooting feels decent (except for the pistol). Not much else to say.

>>538178028
Interesting. Were you using the Leviathan book by chance? That's the one that gives points for letters on the board. Also yeah there's kind of a trade off to using bigger explosives, it's risky to remove words you need from the board but that's by design. Thanks for playing it more!

This 15 minute review guy is one of the realest niggas to ever grace our general. Thank you reviewnigga.

Vibe coding a game for my kids. I already know how to program, so it's ez-pz when the AIs are being retarded to fix shit.

Got a basic minecraft-clone with super basic multiplayer done in 5 days. Would have taken a month and I would have given up on certain things (i.e. depth based fog) if not for AI.

Naturally it looks like shit but that's fine. The kids love it.

>>538180058
>How do you measure "great"?
Originality
Good animation
Render depth
Overall competency
Consistency
Memorable characters

Arksync is quite original for a pixel game but there are other highly rendered pixel games out there so it doesn't stand out a lot.
The animations I saw in the trailer were a bit lacking.
The rendering is nice.
It looks pretty competent.
Arksync is a little inconsistent.
There don't appear to be any characters that'd leave a lasting impression on the store page. The robot is pretty much just a robot.

So, it's lacking a distinct original style and animation. Animation style also counts towards originality and it's important for a game. There being no waifus or just characters the player can relate to means it can't pick up a cringe ass fanbase ...
This isn't required for a successful game but it is required for a game to succeed on art alone.

>>538100483

Nice board game style, but the music seems rather sad and dramatic for a game that should be about having fun and making money.
I think the filter effect might be a bit too strong, it actually looks better without it imo.
Didn't see no button to quit the game.
I tried playing this demo before but really could not get into it, I've never played craps and I can't seem to understand what I'm supposed to do here either even with the tutorial.
I had one game where I couldn't place any bets and had to restart for it to work again.
Overall, really not my kind of game especially since I don't understand what I'm doing at all so I can't say much else, maybe better on-boarding for retarded players like me would be better, take it one step at a time.

Straightforward menu, all needed options are present.
Music seems a bit muted.
Despite trying to put on a scary atmosphere, I didn't really feel it.
Maybe some music, or scary sounds to break things up?
First time I died in the second level to a zombie (?) while trying to explore the room and had to start over.
Second time, I failed at golfing in second level again and that's when I quit.
Having to go through the tutorial every time sucks.
The golfing part is the fun part yet it's also tedious/slow because of the shotgun.
Everything seems to work well, no bugs found.
Is there some payout, some secret at the end?
Maybe it should have a free for all/arcade mode.
Overall, I couldn't really find the fun in it - it’s not the type of game I'd choose to play on my own, not much else to say.

>>538182171
I was using books that gave multipliers for horizontal and vertical words and one that gives points for letters on the edge and one that gives points for specific letters, they all got deactivated because I blew up an edge column. Why did I blow up an edge column? Because if I blew up a middle column then there's no way I could fit new words in their place again with the rigid rules of scrabble and the random mess of letters it would leave behind.

The balance of the items seem off to me, like the uncommon or rare items are nearly useless or only work if you do really detrimental things like waste turns discarding while the common ones give big consistent multipliers. And the runes have a tiny tiny effect while costing almost the same as books and more than letters which seem more useful. But I didn't even want to buy letters because then I have to discard from my hand and then how do you know which ones to discard, it becomes a problem of too much choice again. Really the best way to play seems to be to not engage with any of the mechanics because either the effects are too detrimental or you get overloaded trying to analyze all possible outcomes.

If say your hand wasn't limited and every time you bought a letter your hand temporarily grew by +1 then it would make way more sense. Also if runes went into a stack on the side that you could play at anytime instead of trying to plan them out 5 turns in advance which never works out because of the limited pool of letters you have to work with then I would see a case for using them. I think the most important change you could make though is make the board unlimited, it just grows in any direction as you play. Make the hand unlimited, make the board unlimited and focus the items on enhancing the flow and pace of the game so it becomes a real roguelite.

>>538189562
i consider his game high quality. when i said low quality that includes AAA games especially.

>>538189074
Yes, oversaturation is definitely real. I realize the average age of this general these days is around 16, but there used to be a time when a new indie game getting onto Steam was a relatively rare occurrence. The application process was much more difficult back then, nothing was guaranteed. You could spend years on a game and still get denied by Steam and the Xbox store if they thought it wasn’t high quality enough for their platform.
I definitely don’t think Steam should go back to those days, but I do wish they’d have stuck with the Greenlight concept and evolved it over time rather than abandoning it completely. Obviously Greenlight had its issues, mainly botting, but at least it created enough of a filter that it caught some of the slop before it could make its way onto the Steam store. If your game got onto Steam through Greenlight organically then it meant there was genuine interest in it.

Unfortunately Valve realized it was much more profitable to let people pay to put whatever slop they wanted to up on Steam rather than maintaining a standard of quality. They’re really the ones to blame for all of this. I genuinely wouldn’t mind them increasing the downpayment for a Steam page to $1,000 and returning the money after 100 purchases. Add some actual risk back to game dev and stop this free for all third worlder slopfest.

>MARRAS

Menus look sharp, everything needed is there.
Has controller support which is a must have for these games.
The game hasn't changed much compared to last DD.
Kinda repetitive at moment, not sure where the dev is going with it. It needs more variety in environments or shooting mechanics with upgrades/bombs imo.
I think the ship blends a bit too much with the environment.
Decently challenging but I'm no expert at bullet hells, especially with one hit death, without bombs to clear I had to restart one particular level a bunch of times.
Explosions and shootan sound good.
Overall, the basics are there for a good game but it's still barebones to be really fun and engaging.

There's something about that dragon game's art that feels very "homosexual" to me. Not even in a bad way, necessarily, like I'm not using it as a synonym for 'bad'.
I just literally mean, if I knew nothing even of /agdg/ or 4chan and someone showed me this art, and asked if I thought the person who created it was straight or gay, I would say gay with some feeling of certainty.

>>538191769
Perhaps it's because of all the jacked men; this is because everyone lives in a medieval-esque world where fat people simply do not exist. Perhaps it could be because of the lack of female characters, a problem that plagues the original Spyro the Dragon as it does with my own game due to the team assembled.
Don't worry, the sequel will rectify this issue.

>>538191524
This argument is pure demoralization cope and makes no sense if you think about it for more than a few seconds. Virtually every market on earth is competing with previously produced products. How are clothing companies able to sell clothes when stores are already full of perfectly good clothing? How are car manufacturers able to keep producing new cars every year when there are perfectly functional cars in every dealer’s lot? How is Hollywood able to keep producing new movies when there a millions of movies that already exist? How do new bands keep finding success in genres where there are already thousands and thousands of songs? People like trying new things and are willing to pay money for them, that’s the simple reality of it.

where do you market though? you don't have web steam with a godly algorithm that does everything for you

The CEO of gamedev wants to know your location

>>538192993
that'd be me, how can I help you?

Steam direct fee should be 200 or more to be honest would clean the slop and steam would actually sell more.

>>538187353
Time for Grindr, nonny

>I want to be able to sell my game to thirdies.

Why? How many pesos does it take to make a dollar? The only thing that comes out of selling to thirdies is key sites reselling your game if it becomes popular for pennies. You couldn't even recover the steam fee if you added up all third world sales worldwide. If thirdies actually want your game then they'll pirate it.

The only reason you're arguing this is because you are actually a thirdie trying to remove your competition from the sloprush.

>Journey Zero (18-28-38-48)

Not an easy one to review, it would require a lot of reading to understand what's going on and get into.
This game has David Bowie and Kanye West and Ritsu from K-On!?
After reading the PDF manual it seems to be a digital TTRPG to be played by multiple people.
A lot of effort as gone into this, it leaves with me an uneasy and sad feeling in my stomach that I can't appreciate the game.
I just wish you could maximize the window at least, or increase the font size.
Overall, I will refrain from further critique, this looks like a passion project to be enjoyed by friends.

>>538190572
>turn based
Yeah like I said you’re left with COD and fromslop.

>if you ignore X game then steam over saturation isn't real
That isn't how it works retards. Steam promotes 400 games a year period. Not 400 games of X tag, 400 games. You're competing with AAA games, 2d games, and hentai slop whether your game is one of those or not.

There are 86,349,277 games on steam

>>538192132
I’ve halfway talked myself into making a web-first game engine with built in hosting that properly takes advantage of all the new stuff like WebTransport (UDP in the browser) and WebGPU (basically-native-level GPU access) and trying to make it a thing.

wtf does nonny mean
This is the third time today I’ve been called nonny

>>538194058
that number seems a little... off

i'm not interested in playing many demo day games, they seem boring/uninteresting

>>538128910
Always a 2D platformer. When will they learn?

>>538193681
Gothic, KOTOR, Fallout 3, New Vegas, Oblivion, Skyrim, The Witcher, Cyberpunk, Hogwarts, Outer Wilds, Kingdom Come, Mass Effect, Jade Empire.

This is just a few but I understand you're a retarded 16 year old and don't venture out to actually play any games.

>>538193507
Pennies from thirdies is still better than no pennies. Besides, there’s a lot of thirdies out there. It adds up.
The real reason is that I’m extremely vain and want the largest fan base possible for myself and my games. I want new fanart and messages from fans every day regardless of where they’re from. I will be getting a Chinese translation for this same reason.

>>538194298
I’m not a lolifag but this character made me kinda understand where they’re coming from

>>538194298
The only games that looked interesting to me was Kludge and it ran pretty poorly on my 3060 and that Putt Down game but it doesn't even launch for me so I'm not really interested in it.

>>538194387
1) 99.9% of those fit into “COD or fromslop”
2) half of the ones that don’t have tags from your list

i failed everyone...

>>538194058
2 are mine

>>538192993
thats what im doing right now

>>538194754
It's not my list and secondly you're a retard if you think anything on that list is anything like Call of Duty besides maybe Cyberpunk and "fromslop" would imply it's a Dark Souls type game which literally none of those games are. You're incredibly retarded and narrow minded.

>>538193930
Game saturation isn't real because I can look at almost any game genre and see that there's plenty of improvement to be done. For example, look at the current state of racing and tell me it isn't fucked. Companies have been spamming soulslikes for more than a decade now and you can still count on one hand which ones are good

>>538139907
The future was moving toward PCVR with tiny goggles connected wirelessly to your PC. Imagine a headset the size of the bigscreen beyond but with the wireless capability of the wireless vive headsets, they were nice because you have a battery pack strapped to your back or your belt not your fucking eyes.
Facebook killed any chance of that happening and mobile VR is the worst of both worlds. You get a fuckhuge heavy battery strapped to your face and shitty phone hardware.

>>538194650
I pray a mentally ill girl pushes you into oncoming traffic.

I think one of the major negative things impacting my game development right now is I keep thinking about things I think would improve a certain piece of content, and so I do it.
It doesn't feel like scope creep because it usually is a one-off thing that doesn't take long, but it increases the standard of content and makes me go back and retroactively add stuff to old content and forces me to add even more to new content.
Damnit! DAMNIT!

Could not find the demo for Leap Galaxy, skipping to Winds of Valor.

>>538193627
>Winds of Valor

Cool looking menu, options are lacking and only have volume setting.
First impressions, woah this early, early Ultima-like.
I do like the idea.
Was expecting at least a bit of background music.
Combat is basic, it's hard to read the dialogue text wish you could resize the window.
It wants me to use the mouse to drag and drop items while the rest of the game only uses the keyboard.
Overall, it needs a bit more intro and story but could be rather engaging if properly fleshed out. Right now it's too basic and barebones that's all I can say really.

>>538195437
that’s not nice
What game is that character from? She’s cute

>>538195084

Ok retard

You're doing gods work anon

>>538195690
I accept your concession. GG

>>538195318
Yeah it really really sucks that fb has made everyone think vr has to be standalone.
But then again game consoles are still massively popular.

>>538195519
Leap Galaxy dev here, I removed the exe for a few minutes to fix some of the game being in Spanish. It should be playable now

>>538195785
>t. Retard

>>538192201
>This argument is pure demoralization cope and makes no sense if you think about
it for more than a few seconds.
It makes perfect sense when you think about it for more than a few seconds, games last forever, have no reproduction cost and usually are culturally isolated enough to make them viable for enjoyment no matter which time period they're in
>Virtually every market on earth is competing with previously produced products
No they're not because by definition products and services are consumed.
>How are clothing companies able to sell clothes when stores are already full of perfectly good clothing?
They remove the old clothing from the stores and shred them when new designs come out. There isn't a 2000 year backlog of clothes to buy like with videogames because clothes wear out.
>How are car manufacturers able to keep producing new cars every year when there are perfectly functional cars in every dealer’s lot?
The dealers lot has a month of inventory at most, there isn't a 120 year backlog of cars for you to buy because cars wear out after 10 years.
>How is Hollywood able to keep producing new movies when there a millions of movies that already exist?
Movies are strongly tied to cultural relevance and are in theaters for a limited time. The experience you get watching them at a theater is completely different from watching them at home and that's where the jews make their money. I haven't watched a new movie in a decade btw, I just go back to what I know because I'm no longer culturally relevant. They spend a lot of money on brainwashing the next generation of customers because fresh customers is how they keep the backlog from dragging them down.

there's so many of you what the heck

>he thinks Jade Empire is just like Call of Duty
>calls others retard
Hmmm, projection much?

>>538196410
>How do new bands keep finding success in genres where there are already thousands and thousands of songs? People like trying new things and are willing to pay money for them, that’s the simple reality of it
Cultural relevance + new customers. You can't really compare short, passive repetitive experiences like music to long format deep engagement media like video games.

You CAN chase the new customer in games, but that means you're going to be making slop, not the game you want to make.

it's another Godot's multiplayer nodes are so completely useless even for a barebones basic-ass side-project that I have to roll my own netcode solution episode

This is why I made my game's protagonist a reptile: they are awesome and deserve to be seen as heroes, unlike stupid fucking rabbits and goats that do fuck all but ruin the environment.

Gaben allowed me into real Steam. Now I get access to the special analytics tools

dont fucking reply to me, worm

Okay but monkeys are superior.

ironically, javascript browser game netcode was the easiest ive ever implemented. unity's shit is confusing as fuck, though i did eventually learn it (fishnet mostly)

>>538194387
KOTOR is turn-based, so it should've been filtered
