How are you supposed to build a team in 2025 if everyone wants cash upfront?

Hang out in creative circles and make genuine friends.

KEK! But seriously the only way you're going to have an easy time forming a team in 2025 is like Sokpop or BiteMe, by knowing them irl. There's also /agdg/ but that depends on whether you all mesh together and aren't too far in skill level. I wish I was on a 4 man team of aggy daggers.

What's the minimum you'd accept to be a publisher's bitch?

>>545047137
impossible, all creative circles are 80% retards and 20% real people. Your other option is to make life long friends at a young age who happen to develop a complimentary skill to yours, which is what I did

>only way you're going to have an easy time forming a team in 2025 is like Sokpop or BiteMe, by knowing them irl.
It's fuarking over...

>>545047364
They can have 50% but they need to be able to fund my current lifestyle + current salary for the next 3 years and I want an additional $3000 a month to pay for contractors. Also all my software licenses.

>>545047364
$300k USD upfront with no rights to any past or future games me or my company made/makes. Max of 25% cut for 5 years max. I've seen how they can be, I don't wanna get stuck for life with one publisher. This is a parasitic relationship btw which is why I need a huge upfront pile of cash. They seek to parasite off me but I do of them as well so am I really their bitch? $300k means that once I'm done with the game I have a large runway for a few more games over a period of no less than 7.5 years. Although I'd just invest the cash and accelerate my escape into permanent neetdom.

>>545046692
Your average discord "artist" is somewhere in the ballpark of 15-30 IQ points lower than your average discord "programmer". "Programmers" are much more open to doing revshare because they intuitively understand the concept of front-loaded work for long-term returns.

That said, "programmers" and "artists" don't make games. That's why all revshare projects fall apart. You need game designers, art directors, and product managers.

>>545046692
If you want to rev share, you have to have the project at a promising point already.
Make a good demo without art to prove that you're worth working with.
Also be upfront about the rev share.

>>545047082
>he doesn't know Nortubel lore

>>545048054
Artists understand that their value is in their art and programmers understand their value is in their code. I could give you the Mona Lisa on a revshare basis, but if you choose to display it in your basement for $10000 per ticket and exclusively for nudists, then you're going to fuck my art out of its actual worth. But a programmer understands that they are personally responsible for how good the game will be, so feel more comfortable betting on themselves.

oh you motherfuckers, listen: steam revenue calculator says trainwiz made 43 fucking grand net from 366 reviews at $19.99. HE is fucking saying that he has fucking netted 300 fucking grand. now use your retarded brain and wonder for yourself for a moment, how in the FUCK, could he possibly net 300 fucking grand off of a review estimation of 43 fucking grand? riddle me that one, retards. we're talking 7 fucking times difference

>>545048080
>If you want to rev share, you have to have the project at a promising point already.
Why would I rev share with you if I can get to that point myself, retard? Do you not understand what revshare is?

>>545048054
So basically you need a Marnix....

>>545048495
You're not talking about a programmer. You're talking about a game designer and director. In the gamedev world, too many retards equate the role of "programmer" to "literally everything that's not visual art asset creation". The vast majority of "artists" are honestly shit and worthless on a team because they don't want to be a teammate. They want to be an employee.

>>545048606

>>545048606

So you demand that a programmist gives you an almost complete game so you can decide if it's worth to revshare, but if a programmist asks you to prove that you can actually work in team, then it's heckin oppression and insolence and fuck programmists I'll use AI instead? Fuck you.

Gamemaker games on itch consistenly mog in terms of visual presentation and 'vibe'. It truly is the artist's game engine.

That's what I'm asking/wondering. I've seen so many games get released where I notice things looking out of place or I would've done differently or "fixed" then there's anons saying here don't focus on the details and just make it. So if both are true why would it matter?

>>545050587
You're sort of right but the overton window is shifting I think.

>>545050662
I don't lack the skills I already learned how to do most of it before AI was a thing. My main issue with it before was either you make it yourself, use public assets or buy assets if really needed in domains you're not that great at. But I think my main concern now is just the legal aspect before fully making use of the AI tools, some site claims you can just use Grok generated input and outputs commercially with no issue though.

>>545050974
Nobody said you can't have demands for the artist who wants to work for you, this does go both ways.
But understand that when you show up asking for someone to work with you, unless you have something to show, you're going to look like a waste of time.

She was telling me that gambling 70k on semiconductors was irrational and how she wasn't going to bail me out and how I'm going to ruin my life. Crypto all over again. Crypto is better than long term T-bills. My 6 month returns are insane right now.

A demo that shows off the main gameplay mechanics. It is a lot of work, but the difference between a good demo and a full game is content.
I'm saying you should make a demo that has 80% of the base mechanics and 2-5% of the content.

Answer my question.

>>545057141
how do you even make money on music other than shows and merch?

no one buys music in 2025 do they? They just stream it. Especially if you're not making metal or some other white people music

you're going into a black staffed carehome when you die

>>545058389
ZUN is a musician that is rich from making a basic tutorial game with anime girls to put his music into.

>>545058396
Why would someone go into a carehome when they die? When you die you go into a coffin. You go to a carehome while you're alive, retard.

>>545059631

>>545059631
>learning to code.

what a meme, you should only be focusing on creative tasks and strategy for making AI do all the work

>>545059631
Remember how everyone kept saying that in depth knowledge is lost because of engines. We're way past that, it's gotten even worse.

>>545059806
class AABB:
def __init__(self, x, y, width, height):
self.x, self.y = x, y
self.width, self.height = width, height

def intersects(self, other):
return not (self.x + self.width/2 < other.x - other.width/2 or
self.x - self.width/2 > other.x + other.width/2 or
self.y + self.height/2 < other.y - other.height/2 or
self.y - self.height/2 > other.y + other.height/2)

class QuadTree:
MAX_OBJECTS = 4
MAX_LEVELS = 5

def __init__(self, level, bounds):
self.level = level
self.bounds = bounds
self.objects = []
self.children = [None, None, None, None]

I don't want to code. I can manage a visual style of picrel (maybe with slightly less polygons especially when relating to human models) and do level design but I can't find a coder to work with.
I don't understand why should I learn complicated code stuff instead of collabing with someone when I want to focus on the visual and design aspects of gamedev.

Music sells largely based on who you are rather than the actual quality of your work. I've noticed a lot of successful bands will have really nerdy looking people in the background and then a noteworthy front man or front women to carry the appeal of the band.
This is probably the best thing about the video game industry, nobody cares about the person behind the game. You actually have to succeed based on your work.

It's not really lost, there's books. See "Michael abrash's graphics programming black book" it's absolute kino. You can also study libre engines like doom and quake engines.

What game should I make if I want to sex this

There's a scam happening on the v3expo Discord server. A moderator is privately messaging users, promising a free year of Claude code and Comet Browser for game development. They get you to sign up for Comet Browser (earning them $3) and then ask you to log in with your Gmail account, claiming it's to sync your mobile data. This connects your Google account across devices, allowing them to steal your data. The Discord owner has blocked me when I tried to warn them.

how do I make an appealing game?

I think is funny I am now thinking of writing a tool to parse mugen characters data into godot own data structures, and automatically import the mugne sprites and sort of like automate most of the porting of a mugen char into godot.

I need a second opinion on this ear model. I feel something is wrong but IDK which direction to go in

i have noticed a pattern in gamedevs to hold onto false beliefs and ideas just in order to avoid desperation. it seems like people are more comfortable believing in something that doesn't work and running down the cliff, rather than tackling the reality that they don't know how to avoid the cliff and that it's fucking hard to figure out how to avoid it.
you could argue that if you fall down the cliff anyways, then at least you get to "chill" for the rest of your life until you fall down, because you feel hopeful.
but if you really want a solution, you gotta let go of your false beliefs, even if it crushes all your hopes.

>>545074996
nein

>>545069908
wait, you didn't even have a game before making that model? what the fuck is wrong with artfags

>>545075069

>>545075081
Give me an actual answer m8

>>545074996
If you're going that low poly anyway then I wouldn't bother modeling details that can be filled in with textures
Protip with low/mid poly 3d: If it doesn't add to the silhouette and you don't need it to deform for animation, detail it with your texture map instead

>>545074996
just make it a texture

>>545074996
Show the rest of the model, if it's low poly stylized it's probably good, especially after texturing the inside, if it doesn't match then we can see how it needs to be changed.
Off the top I would say to just indent in inner section a bit to make it less pronounced.

>>545074429
sometimes for customer support they will have an ESL worker use prerecorded messages to respond instead of talking directly. It's how we got this weird video https://youtu.be/22ZaKbxmEMA which happened before the AI boom pretty sure

>>545075175
actually almost everybody who is confident about their game idea. they tend to ignore the scale of their project, the budget it'd require, the team size it'd require, the skills it requires. you could argue that believing you can make a game alone at all is a false belief and a complete denial of how real games are made. but all of those realities crush hopes and therefore people avoid those realities.

i mean, ofc you can go to the end of the spectrum and believe nothing is possible. but i feel like tackling reality is very important. if your project depends on hope it's most likely gonna fail.

e.g. if you can't make art and then lay out a plan how to make your game and it involves making hundreds of art assets. how do you justify working on that? hoping that an artist unicorn will fall out of the sky? hoping that you win the lottery and you suddenly can hire an artist?

i feel like most devs wouldn't even make a plan and just ignore the reality that you need art at some point. like just not thinking about obvious pitfalls.

>>545075492
I'm generally aiming for early PS2 level like Wander from SOTC

There's always more to learn.

i wonder. if i make a colony sim type of game. and have buildings per job. could i get away with having just one colonist model and walking/idle animation? they could just walk between buildings and the rest is abstracted away. so they don't even need to carry tools or weapons. ofc it'd be prettier with all of that, but at least you see colonists walking around at all.
if i only animate mining, then i also gotta animate everything else like hunting, chopping, smithing, farming etc. and it becomes a massive scope again...

>>545075672
It's important to handle the scope of your game I agree, but I don't understand why you think it's impossible for a solodev to make a game, even as a hobby, if they consistently work on it for a few years.
The hope is obviously for a commercial success, but even if it isn't it's a good learning experience and motivator (personal cope).

>>545075672
So in simpler words "estimation, especially when done by amateurs, is difficult". Yes, this is a well known phenomenon in software in general.

>>545075982
looks like bs, show 1 example of this actually helping something in gamedev

How it feels to be working on a game knowing that three Double-A games in the same genre are about to be released:

>>545073247
there are various solutions to this
use the polish for a demo, early access, or crowd funding.
Good games do NGMI if the game had zero visibility prelaunch. Steam does not market your game. Many good games probably are lost, but also I doubt it too, most of them probably develop small cult followings becoming at worst minor successes.
The only way a good game could NGMI is if you put zero effort into the marketing but then also told no one about it, your friends and family didn't even know it existed. It just sits there and no one on earth ever heard of it

>>545076240
I don't really understand the inputs, but I can see the appeal of the outputs.

>>545076115
it depends on their plan. if they can show me their skills, their budget, their scope etc., then we can argue about that plan.
but "i don't know how to make 3d models, but i want to make a dungeon crawler like diablo" is just dumb to me.
but i feel like those type of people are very motivated. they'll build prototypes and all that stuff. and then suddenly just go silent and cancel their project. cause they ran into a problem they could have seen from the start: they can't do fucking 3d modeling.

it's ok to say "i can't do it", when you can look at your plan and actually see that you really can't do it. but this can lead to desperation. cause it could mean you can't make any game, cause they all require more than you can make.
or you have to make games you don't want to make, because they are the only viable ones inside your boundaries. but that can also cause desperation.

i feel like real gamedevs are the ones who can handle this desperation and adjust to it. the others will forever release fancy screenshots and tech demos for likes and quitting project after project.

Gonna drop a big update soon...

sunken cost fallacy, us humans have been suffering from it for thousands of years.

>>545076712
I think is funny because after complaining so much that godot was just frustrating because is so low level, I am coding a framework to make my games using godot, just to have an optimal workflow by next year.

It's like the joke is the shortest path is actually the one that goes againts the shortcuts.

I just finished setting up my window tiling environment and tuning it to my specific keybinds. This is going to be pure kino development.

>>545076775
yes. but i think life is not just about developing skills, but utilizing skills. so gamedev might be viable if you can stop it with the delusions. you might be able to make an ascii dungeon crawler or a ui-based manager game, or a node-based game or whatever. or something like openfront.io
yet your unwillingness to think realistically keeps you stuck working on doomed projects.

>>545076614
I see what you're saying,
you're right but that's just very common nudev trap most people fall into.
Nearly everyone's first game or second game (after a practice game) is an ambitious project they never finish because they never had a handle on the scope to begin with.
It's a pretty natural process.
For most people it should be a learning experience.

No shit. Basically what this anon was saying >>545076614

Anyone who really wants to do gamedev will figure out a solution to those problems.
Whether that is learning to model, make 2d games instead, hiring a modeler, etc.
The people who run into a roadblock and decide to cancel their game are never going to make it in the first place.

>>545070527
Mine is too but probably because we aren't all that close, I'm unemployed, and have no wife. We simply have very little in common and the few times I was nice and shared stuff about my game, he forgot most of it. It's not very enticing to talk about my game knowing that.

>>545078330
Protip #2:
Starting from scratch is for suckers. There are lots of free base meshes out there to start from. There are lots of free meshes in general. Remodel, reuse, retexture.

>>545054402
Now the player can stand on them and hit them to start a fight. They can't deal damage to the player yet.

I admire your ability to make consistent progress and I'm jealous of your talent.

It looks like the pumpkins go straight for a bit and then are affected by gravity and start to arc down? It's a little weird because it seems like they'll just go straight like a projectile at first but unless I'm going crazy sometimes they arc down at the end. It seems like it would feel better if there was a constant arcing (like throwing them slightly upward to start) or if they just went straight the whole time.

The enemies starting with a neutral face and then getting angry red eyes when attacking is is nice detail!

To be honest I'm more worried about Capcom announcing a dino crisis remake while I'm working on something similar.
I keep hearing rumors about it.
The only thing that keeps me sane is that RE9 is coming out next year and it seems unlikely to me that they'll release it the same year.

Was just thinking about his game today. Even if the gameplay wasn't good it had heart. It's a shame what happened to that guy, he had potential.

>>545080060
Atm I'm motivated to keep going, but it could all stop in the next couple of months. Trying to keep positive about it. For talent I wish you the best. Mine came from drawing my whole life and I still got a lot to learn.

I had it before that the pumpkin would arc up a bit before going back down, but it would hit some of my lower solid platforms and break. So I had changed it to just go straight before going down. I can try to have the downward arc start earlier and ease out slower.

The walking box is meant to be helpful so it's not too happy when the player attacks it.

how good are 4chan ads?

Wasteland bites as a concept has tons of potential and the demo is solid, but looking at the dev's blogposts I'm not entirely sure he's mentally stable enough to succeed at making the final game good. Or maybe I'm completely wrong and his mental instability is exactly why he will make the final game good.

>>545085503
4chan has ads? (this is a answer to your question)

>>545085503
The typical 4chan user is more tech savvy than the average rando and thus probably has an ad blocker.

It's been a dead industry for a while, long before I got into game dev and music creation. I make more from steam soundtracks than from music streaming by far. If you want to make money with music, you have to sell physical albums and do physical shows with merch.

With music streaming, Youtube and Amazon unlimited pays the most per stream. Places like Spotify unironically pay shit like $0.0004 for a full play. Youtube ads pays a penny per fully play if it's a song that's around 10 minutes.

Is the Buster Sword supposed to look like it's covered in fricken baby oil? I don't believe I connected the textures wrong.

>>545086891
Show your material set up
I'm guessing you're using a packed texture for roughness/metalness and forgot to turn off SRGB

my discord members keep pressing me for devlogs or make jokes about my progress being slow and it stresses me out!

>>545086891
change the roughness

>>545086845
>>545078960
>>545077239
I feel like that's not the fidelity I'm looking for though. A bit too realistic. I'm looking more for OG DMC

>>545087041
No it's not packed, there's no alpha in any of the textures.
They're not named the greatest. I'm assuming the black/white Body_Mr is the metallic and the lighter grey Body_Mg is the roughness. Also assuming the O is the ambient (O)cclusion
>>545087107
The roughness is plugged directly in. I think it's this shiny in-game, that's how it is I guess

>>545087989
Funny you should mention that, that's literally what I'm looking at for reference

>>545087720
Yeah your issue is your metalness, AO and roughness textures are reading as SRGB color instead of linear color. Disable SRGB in the texture settings for those textures. (roughness, metalness, AO - and anything you'd use as a mask in the future)

I'm using unity 6.0.43 and I'm going to install 6.0.61. Should I also install the android sdk etc? Or can I just copy those from previous install?

I understand what you're saying, and that's definitely the case for Blender. In Blender textures are fugged up if they're not set as the correct color format, but in Unreal you plug it in and it "just works", I don't think that's the issue. I get where you're coming from but unless you mean something different than what I'm attempting here that's not it, in fact UE won't even allow me to change the color space without errors, it's expecting a standard color texture, and I've never heard of color spaces being too relevant to the unreal material workflow.
I'm now convinced it's this shiny in the actual game, that's how the devs textured this asset. Thanks for the help though, anons who genuinely help are the reason these threads are worthwhile

When the fuck is AI UV unwrapping coming I hate this tedious bullshit

>>545089586
It already did, are you retarded?

>>545089930
Link?

>>545089586
I've learned to love UV unwrapping, using "u" as a keyboard shortcut helps a lot, as does using "l" for linked sections. Once it became second nature it became a lot more enjoyable. It shouldn't take that long either...

I like the idea of the protagonist of my game kicking the hints in the loading screen if you're doing really well before saying
>As if I need to hear this

>>545089586
Sorry AI is only going to automate the fun stuff (sculpting) while leaving the tedious bullshit like retopologizing, unwrapping, and rigging

>>545089561
Anon I've been using Unreal for 12 years now. I know what I'm talking about.
You're getting errors because you need to change it to linear color in the material as well.

>>545090484
>I've been using Unreal for 12 years now
that's not the flex you think it is lil bro

>>545089586

>I've been Unreal for 12 years now

Not that anon but out of curiosity, if someone wanted to hire you for gamedev how much would you expect to be paid?

after 2 years..I finally understand 2D TileSets, TileMaps, isometry. I'm surprised there isn't more software out there for building TileSets. Anyone know how I could upscale these ruins? Or apply some soft of filtering to sharpen them? Maybe I should trace over them and just make new tiles entirely..

>>545090637
It's not a flex. It's a "I'm trying to stop you from making the same mistakes I made when I started out". I didn't know about the SRGB issue for like a year and always wondered why there was a discrepancy in my models in Substance v Unreal 4.

>>545064998

>>545090751
Which one works best when unwrapping something like an industrial robot arm? Just want to avoid manually marking hundreds of seams

>>545091025
is this real? what's the model?

>>545091104
For an industrial robot arm, RizomUV Virtual Spaces is the most recommended tool. It offers a powerful blend of automatic unwrapping features specifically suited for hard-surface models, combined with the ability to make quick manual adjustments if necessary. If you are looking for a purely "one-click" solution and are willing to rely entirely on the software's AI, Ministry of Flat is an excellent alternative.

>>545090773
I don't think anyone would hire me for anything because being a 1MA you become okay at everything but not great at anything. There are better programmers, designers and artists out there that you could hire instead.

Yes.

In my current project I've been making 3d models and rendering them from multiple angles in blender so I can have things like rotatable buildings... Though with the amount of effort and the results I got I'd have probably been better off hand drawing them. Though I could just use my renders as a base and touch them up in aseprite

>>545091273

>>545092030
For pixelart renders I just use the blender compositor scale nodes to scale the render up and then down using nearest neighbour. And there's some other setting hidden in a menu somewhere which turns antialiasing off. There are better compositor setups but that one is simple and works well enough.

I do a separate render for the snow with the rest of the house sent to black, then in the compositor channel the black into the alpha output so I can have a separate snow sprite to layer on top of the house, the house is rgb split with each channel being recolored via a shader in engine so the snow needs to be separate anyway. I touched up the snow with the jiggle brush in aseprite to break up the lines.

>>545092490
Thanks.

The cars, fences and floor textures are hand drawn in aseprite, it's just the house and player which are 3d rendered. I might do a car too because I need them from many angles and I've already got a workflow set up for the houses so it'll be less work in theory (it won't be)

proof it's made up? I looked at the AI recommendations, it was a 400 dollar manual unwrapping tool.

I made all the graphics myself so I was hoping it would all look like it belongs together simply because I made it in my own style.
>>545095272
The muzzleflash is a placeholder btw, its just a 2D plane that instantly scales to 1,1,1 and then lerps to 0,0,0 in size, and a point/area light flashing at the muzzle as well.

I thought it looked really good :(

>>545095534
I like it, fuck the haters. Maybe just make your level a little lighter so it's not that grating and it's fine in my book.

>>545095365
3d modeling is too easy

>>545095534
the muzzleflash is fine, it's the lighting on the environment that's too much.

I think more varied materials would bring the environments to life. Lighting is debatably more important than modeling
