i think my idea is great but the existing possible customer base is tiny, i would sell 20k copies at most over 5 years if it was popular which it won't be, in reality most likely 5 mixed reviews
you niggas can call me FROGDEV cause i'd be projecting hoppin' like a one.
If your game has any of the following then I won't play it and neither will anyone else>anime>talking animals>romance>sidescrolling>towers to defend>grid based tactical action>pre-ps1 art style
>>416024448What if it has towers to ascend?
>>416024448What if it has big futa cocks?
>>416024448hooray anon will play my game
>>416024448So if I have>western cartoon>rapping animals>hate sex>top-down>towers to attack>grid based real time action>ps1 art styleI'm practically guaranteed to succeed?
>>416024536only if it's purely vertical ascension
But does your game have the following?>FUN
special
>>416025101
>>416025051It is. Anon will play my game, nice
>>416025101Yes, it has fire.
>>416024448I will not remove the anime from my game.
>>416024448wtf I'm literally making anime girls waging war with talking animals except there is some romance between the some individuals of two factions, it's a sidescroller tower defence game that has grid based tactical action levels scattered with pre ps1 artstyle
You HAVE built localization tools into your game, haven't you, anon? You don't do something as silly as hard-coding character names and menu prompts, do you?
>>416025583
>>416025583No, and I likely never will. I will continue to do it as fast as possible and you will not know.
>>416024536One of my game ideas is about tower descent
>>416025583It's planned, but not implemented yet.
>>416025583obviously yes
I have a 1080ti that I don't use anymore. How do I donate it to chris?
>>416026027Just ask /int/
>>416024448>>pre-ps1 art stylewtf is that, pong?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmrA-gxJxgQI will make a pacifica game where she gathers farm shit in colombia and this song will play when you win the game credits.

Got fucked by new threadNumber them:CrossSquareCircleTriangle
>>416026207anon probably means pixel art but didn’t want to say it because ps1 looks like pixel art anyways

>open unity>It eats 3gb of ram>open godot>300mbwhy is that?
made a spear for the guy, still thinking on whether to use the metallic shader or just painting that shine effect like as it is right now, have to check it in engine first. also need to do some adjustments to the weight painting, after that i'll make some fun animations i guess.
>>416026675Unity allocates ram, but doesn't actually use it.
>>416026731You've really improved tomo.
>>416026731Really good
>>416026731Looking good.
>>416026731that mask makes me think of the gray cowl
>>416024448>anime>talking animals>romance>sidescrolling>pre-ps1 art styleall of those can be found in best seller, Undetale. Remove the talking animals and those can be found in Stardew Valley too. Sorry buddy, but you're a minority in the indie community.
>>416026675You need ram to make game
I think I'm gonna have to bite the bullet and translate my actives into 2D animated sprites that 'look' 3D, on a separate layer over my fancy low-poly 3D backgrounds (or do it the other way around, and make the backgrounds 2D fancy things). It only runs full speed right now on the RTX3080 i9 32GB RAM desktop I'm developing it on, and I want it to run nicely on Steam Deck
>>416026731I think you should use metallicity - it'd look great on the gold embroidery of the clothes.
>>416026675memory allocations are stored in the balls
>>416026283
>>416026675>snes cartridges were 4mb>switch cartridges are 32gbwhy is that?
>>416024448>If your game has any of the following then I won't play it and [HEADCANON]
>>416025583>You don't do something as silly as hard-coding character names and menu prompts, do you?Good idea.
>>416028114Because how else are they going to put a compilation of SNES games on a Switch cartridge and sell it for $60?
something happened inside my head and now I know which path I should follow. I'll now truly game dev. I see you soon, anons.
>>416027628On the basis of this, which would you prefer be in 2D? The 'actives' or the background?
>>416023467depression is temporary, your game is forever
>>416028506Please, be the path of making a porn game with hot mommies.
>>416028506>>416028858hot futa mommies
>>416026980kek i wish i'm as good as tomo>>416027204>>416027263thank you my sirs>>416027363yeah that might be like one of those inspiration that comes unknowingly or some shit like that cause i played the fuck out of oblivion since i was a kid (still reinstall it from time to time). i even think it's better than skyrim desu.>>416027635yeah i guess i'll have to check, and maybe also use the metallicity on the golden parts too since they're all painted right now.
>>416029074Not a fan of futa, but a mommy is a mommy.
>>416026914Why the hell would it allocate 3 gigs
Are there any Diablo clone devs displaying character armours in the style of Diablo 1/Fallout?As in, character appearance is determined by armor 'type' (light, medium, heavy for example) rather than paper dolling each item onto the character.I find this makes a way more kino character sprites since paperdolling can create weird combos and players left to their own creative devices will make them butt naked with a watermelon head.This design choice will no doubt get flak in 2023 but how many armor appearance types do you think a game needs?I'm aiming for at least 3, hopefully 6 since there isn't really a limit technologically on how many sprites I can include. Depending on how difficult it becomes maybe more or less. Anyone orblets using a similar system?
>>416026283I don't understand the question?
>>416029854Kalemonvo said he’ll do this at some point AFAIK
why didn't you guys tell me it finally released>https://store.steampowered.com/app/2199970/Substance_3D_Painter_2023/
>>416029854>how many armor appearance types do you think a game needs?One. As long as it looks good and is well done. Obviously more are better if it stays consistent and consistently good/well done aswell. As for the Armortype/Paper dolling Thing, paperdolling obviously is better as it offers more variety and customization options, but only if you can make good and fitting Sprites that will look good in every possible combination. That gets harder and harder the more Armorpieces you have tho, so having multiples share the same Look is a valid Approach. Still, both depend on the Artist making sure all the possible Options look good with each other. If I'm wearing light helmet, medium Boots and Heavy Armor, it needs to look good, same as when its full Paperdolling and I'm wearing Onion Helmet, Berserker Armor, Pegasus Boots, Fairy mantle and whatever else you have in your Game combined. So I'd say go with however many Options you can make look good together, and it'll be fine. Don't force any extra Options just because you think your Game needs those extra Pieces if you can't match them together with the Rest well. If the Game doesn't have a certain Customization Option, thats fine, but if it looks bad, then I'll complain.
Anybody know any good papers on procedural level generation? I wanted to make something with either Wolf3D or Doom style graphics/levels. It would be cool if the levels weren't just tile based blocky walls, but non-orthogonal or 3 dimensional walls too.
>>416029858>>416026550It's a question to decide what button does what.Buttons are in hierarchy of use, a platformer has jump on 1, a shooter has shoot etc etcWhile m/k, k only and even arcade stick have their buttons written in stone, pad is more fluid about that.For ex, a platformer with jump on square it would be a wtf for almost everyone; But elder scrolls/Fallout has jump on triangle, and everybody it's fine with that.
>>416030841>But elder scrolls/Fallout has jump on triangle, and everybody it's fine with that.who the fuck didn't immediately rebind that to X/A?
>>416030841You rarely jump in those games, so it's fine to me. I'd rather use the lower buttons for more important things.
>>416030683Really surprised Adobe keeps the Substance stuff on Steam. Must be selling shitloads

>>416031235My game was designed to be unfinishable...
>>416029854I mean Diablo had 3 per class, so I don't think anyone would be super upset with that.But I think an improvement would be to focus on how many competitive armor types there are. Diablo, for instance, had everyone running around in heavy armor at the end, so maybe their efforts would've been better spent making several heavy armor types than having light and medium that you're never gonna see again once you get past the caves.
>>416032251>sale you saythat might actually be me. I only own 2021 and didn't notice. I'll probably pick up 2023 after my game releases though.
>>416032103You still got 37 days until the next DD.
>>416031348>unfinished prototypesI sleep
>>416032530>37 days until the next DDBut demonday was only yesterday
>>416032654Excuse me, sir. The prototype is finished.
>>416030683So what IS this, then? Just a texture drawing thing? If I legitimately acquire it can I just grab textureless models, paint them, and then make them look fancy in Blender still, or do I have to tie this to some kind of Adobe 3D thing?
>>416030683Whats the improvement since 2018/19 version?
It's not really a Toga with the Arm being seperate, but the Concept Art clearly has that seperated into a Sleeve instead of the classic throwover End of Cloth, so I'm going with that. I don't usually model any Folds, but I figured might aswell, since its pretty Featureless otherwise, and such a big Part of the Model. Also with the Flesh, the Spikes and the Skeleton, it doesn't bloat the Triscount too much, it's way too high already anyway. I'll add a second collapsed version in aswell, but I'll assume it'll look quite worse then this. Sorry. Texture is obviously just a super quick Blockout to get a better Feel for the flow of Cloth on this, aswell as for the Colors. I'll be painting this in Greyscale, to try some Stuff out, you can't stop me from at least trying to add some Form of Features to it, even if I can't do7you don't want any Details. >>416031803You're welcome.
>>416032785yes
>>416033710I like it as is with the plain texture, but if you think you can come up with something interesting you can give it a tryOtherwise he is looking great! Can’t wait to get my hands on him
"fuck rotatedev"
>>416030784>I wanted to make something with either Wolf3D or Doom style graphics/levels.Wolf3D works for the procgen style, but Doom would not. 50% of Doom's greatness comes from the amazing handcrafted levels. Doom 2 is proof because its stock levels are shit and the game suffers massively because of it. That said, I don't know the answer to your question.
>>416034173I'm thinking more of a macro Level, clearer Overlap of Cloth, maybe some Hueshift from top to bottom, ragged Ends those kind of Things.
Today's Godot beta is huge.

>>416034387Give it a go! You probably know these things better than I do anyway
>>416034971I don't, that's why I want to try them. And because a huge Detailless piece of Cloth is boring.

>>416035613It's not really low Poly, the whole Thing has 3795 Tris, probably will end up just above 4k when I add the Crown. Robe itself has 425 Tris.It's really just an 8 sides Cylinder, with another one connected for the Arm. Roughed up the Edge on the Arm cylinder, added some Loopcuts along the Fold-flow, and moved those out a bit to create the Ridges. Then cut a hole into the Shoulder and removed the Triangle on the upper-left, and finally filled those in with an indent to have less Backfaces.Not necessarily in that order, I went Cylinder>Arm>connect>Rough>removeBigArea>Fill-in>Add Folds>Remove Shoulderhole. And in the End a lot of fiddling and adjusting obviously. Will receive some extra Adjustment once the Texture is further along to get the Ridges to line up with the Colors better.

What do we think about ingame huds where your meters are projected in the game world as holograms instead of being UI elements?I can't decide, they feel more dynamic and stuff but also like the 2010s equivalent of lens flares.

>>416037026It worked for Dead Space. Dunno if you can pull it off as well, but it's not like it's worse than a regular hud.
>>416037026Horizon Zero Dawn is all about that. Check it out if you want to see how it looks.
>>416030784>It would be cool if the levels weren't just tile based blocky walls, but non-orthogonal or 3 dimensional walls too.I don't think your choice of algorithm is going to solve that problem. This sounds more like something you can tweak as part of your personal implementation, once you've got the basics working.Like, instead of generating ten blocky rooms and stitching them together orthogonally, nothing stops you from stitching them together at unusual angles. Hell, even if you generate all your rooms on a grid, those rooms can still be prefabs that contain handcrafted unusual geometry inside, for example.Also consider asking >>>/vg/rlg/ maybe.
>>416037026Diegetic UI as they like to call it is very hit and miss, even though fartsniffing hipster indie devs love to rant about it. Worked in Deadspace because it's not a fast paced or competitive game, would never work in something fast paced or competitive because you need that information available to you at all times.
>>416037706Why would a diegetic UI be slower than a regular HUD?
>>416034417>takes a year for PRs to be merged
>>416037706Interesting that you mention that. I really liked Titanfall 2's UI, both in mech and outside.
What if I found a crew to make a series of fangames per participant combined into 1 game on Unreal for 6 months called the FKBH. My fangame will have 15 minutes of playtime with 2 songs instead of 4.
Some more progress finally after not being able to do some stuff :pDid a few gui things from my latest concept art like the money thing, goes up to 1B! (coins will come soon too)Also two new symbols, guitar and bocchi. can only do one shape and color per symbol if I want to stay efficient with performance but I guess it's not that bad, just a bit harder.Should also add some kinda info page like over at stake.com where it shows you how much symbols are worth & multipliers & special symbols and so on...Ya! bell pepper time!Laters~
>>416038195Cute Bocchi!
>>416023579What about the feds?
>>416037706>would never work in something fast paced or competitiveTrackmania moved the speedometer to be on the back of the car and it improved readability because your eyes don't need to stray as far to read your speed.Splatoon puts your ink-gauge on your back and nobody has a problem with it. Your inkling/octoling will become partially transparent to keep your ink tank visible, and a 2D ui gauge will appear if you're submerged.
I keep making new memory allocators instead of working on my game. Am I too autistic for gamedev?
HelloWhat engine would be a good choice for a 3D strategy game/point and click rpg? It would be very nice if there was a free barebones demo of such a game available to build upon and an editor.
>>416038467>too autistic for gamedevno such thing
>>416038467Post Memory Allocator?
>>416030784WFC is pretty gangsterhttps://www.gridbugs.org/wave-function-collapse/The best place to start is by handcrafting levels and use those as the basis for your procedural levels, one way or another. WFC is one way to do that. It works for levels that can be boiled down to 2D arrays of a finite set of values (sprites), so would work very well for Wolf3D or Doom style levels. I imagine you could extend it to 3D on the same principles.You could build basic orthogonal levels and dress them up with rounded corners or reshaped walls afterward.Why do you want procedural levels? How will you use them? Really, the way you approach procedural generation needs to be tailored to your game.
>>416034173>>416034971Couldn't think of anything for the bottom right Part, and the Concept Art seems to have it not there, so what if I removed it? Obviously more carefully then this. The Priest floats right? There's no Legs underneath? Or should I add the Legs back in then?>>416038497Unreal and Unity both work fine for this I think.
>>416038364>Trackmania moved the speedometer to be on the back of the car and it improved readability because your eyes don't need to stray as far to read your speed.Trackmania did not move the speedometer at all, it's still in your bottom right. They just added one on the license plate area so you have two. The one in the bottom right is left because sure enough it's hardly possibly to get a good reading on that one at all times.
>>416039160good idea - yeah he floats, no legs to speak of so this works great!
>>416039290>>416039290Alright I'll do that then. Just out of Curiosity, you're Faceless Ones are semi-transparent, so you're fine with Enemies being partly semitransparent instead of only masked, right?
>>416038497Unreal
>>416039430yeah, I have a shader that handles it.every enemy can also become named, and some named enemies have the Evasion attribute to them, which makes their material semi-transparent like that of the Faceless
How come bell pepper always looks this appetizing, it would beat apple if not hollow.Anyone know why they are hollow? Is it like an evolutionary defect that we could maybe even fix like with other gene-modified foods? I find the idea of a solid full bell pepper quite intriguing! Like make a game where you modify fruit and vegetables :)>>416038263Heh... ty!Pixelated af since just lines but ya it's a reference, doubt many will get it just from the silhouette.Wanted to do the ice cubes too... but then I realized they're different colors so can't do that but I'll pack in other stuff too, just finished watching yesterday!Maybe also some symbols from other /agdg/ games but idk what yet hahaAnyways, symbols are - whilst tedious at times, the easiest part so I should pack in a ton... but then also when do you stop? at 20? or just 10?If you have like 100 symbols that will get just weird I think :s
>>416039669They have large interior spaces because humans bred these peppers to have large fruits with lots of flesh and clearly the mutations which were cultivated for these traits did not also increase the size of the seeds by the same proportion.
>>416039242I don't have tm 2020 installed at the moment, but I cannot find a screenshot or video that shows both the license-plate speedometer and a ui speedometer. Maybe it's an option you can turn on, but it's definitely not on by default.

>>416041646>I spent a fortune having a freelancer make those when we started making EdengrallGot a name? Are his prices good? Wouldn't mind getting some myself.

>>416025583this is actually one of the few things ive thought out. i just keep text like that as a key value pair in a en.json file. my game is never gonna get localized or even finished probably but if it ever is finished i could just dump the thing in google translate lmao quick python script or something to break it out then put it back into KVPs
>>416041820Wtf why it looks so sovlfulIs it some fancy postprocess or painted light for static camera angle?

>>416040805Officially because the setting is the future world of 2011 when the sun has horizontal lines across it and most people own jet fighters with those green HUDs as seen in the documentary G-Police. The setting is also ambiguously a simulation and holograms are what computers run on.In actuality, a HUD would be closer to where the player is looking without the clutter of putting UI elements in the middle of the screen. A clustered HUD is important because then the player can see everything that is important to their world saving mission at a glance. This may be about as relevant as the offroad capabilities of an SUV for the average player, but the gamer helmet FEEL is important to go with the assumed powerglove.I don't have any big Art Game Design Paradigms™, sorry.My concern is that a diegetic UI is actually hard to read, specifically when your game has RPG elements so it needs a shitton of numbers, and it is so associated with that cringy Watch Dogs thing where plastering the UI all over the game world just makes the entire game feel like you're playing Windows.

Hello, need some help understanding Unity, URP. Can't find forward renderer at all and started from URP template?
>>416043628>how did you generate all the strings for prefix / suffix names?Its trivial really. I made them up lolAnyway, i split both parts into prefix and suffix. So im pulling from 4 lists to make a complete name. For now each list has 4 entries, so theres not a whole lot of variation
All three!That's enough for now :)>>416040116Oh so it's making sure it reproduces if ded before picked :oneat.

You're just on that computer all day for like sixty whole minutes, and I'm just over here wondering if you're ever going to snap out of it. Like it's okay or whatever that you have hobbies I guess but an HOUR you spent learning modeling and coding yesterday? It's just like a bit much anon. Why don't you ever watch 8 straight hours of Netflix garbage with me like Anonette's husband does with her? I just really wish you were differntT.husband dev
>>416044602tysm!Though not sure when that'll be ^^ but I 100% absolutely safe surely surely super super promise I have everything done by next DDIt's in so many days, no way I don't have it all done by then!surely :pStill thinking about how many symbols I should do total... like I said too many could be weird maybe? Ya idk...
>>416043390Thanks, here it is ater I ruined it. The Color and the Alpha are on seperate Textures, so all is good.If this is too Ethereal for you Kalemonvo, let me know and I'll remove the Alpha/change it. Same with the Colors, if you don't like them, I can easily change them.
>>416044818Looks great
>>416044687Couldn't you set up a workstation so you can watch netflix with her while deving something boring and easy? She just wants to spend time with you.
>>416044818Is Tomo and Kalemonvo the only devs helping each other on here?
>>416044687why does every agdg dev have such naggy wives
>>416044818I think you overdid the transparency, I can't see it at all.
>>416044818Of course.>>416044834>>416045030Thank you. It was really Fun to try this out, altho it might be the wrong Model for that. At least I know I can do spooky Ghosts better now.>>416044687I too would be worried if my Husband was a Gamedev and only spent 1 Hour per Day devving. >>416044967No. I did a bit for World of Mold and Pogo aswell. But not nearly as much. Strictly speaking Assetwise, I'm trying to help out with answering Questions wherever I can ofcourse. But so do a lot of Anons.
>>416044967No, Tomo also helped the frog dev guy with some raven model yesterdayAlso dont forget how most yesdevs help each other with great feedback each DD
>>416044687I wish I had nijika
>>416045105This.. is kino
>>416045105I'd ditch the transparency on the sleeve.
>>416045105And here's the Wireframe just in case anyones curious. I cut out the big fully transparent Chunk in the bottom, as thats also transparent with just alpha clipping, and should save on Performance, even tho it increase Triscount by a bit. Currently 3790, still missing the Crown.

>>4160448961 hour of personal time isn't alot to ask, and if you always give your wife what she wants she'll unironically find a problem with that too.There is a very large and comfortable desk in our tv room that would allow exactly this, but the sound of my mouse clicking or typing will cause her to become irate.This is despite the fact she is watching a show quite loud and also not watching it because she is viewing tiktoks at max volume.She only wants me to give up my thing to validate her, it's a woman thing.

>>416045105>>416045413looks great! i'll try both designs out. I like the idea behind this design a lot, especially the green highlights.

why do so many games not respect the players time? there's just so many mechanics designed to slow your progress instead of designed to be fun.
>>416046007where did this respecting time meme come from
>>416045368I'm extremely glad I seperated everything so much. Here's one with the Alpha on the Sleeve intact. I'll stop spamming the Skelly so much now, I'll post more tomorrow once I got Feedback from Kalemonvo and began on the Crown. Sorry.>>416045656Thank you, I'll leave the Textures and Modelpart seperate in the blend/Folder, so you can adjust them as you want and merge them yourself then. I'll still have to bake the Textures together into one, but I'll give you those aswell on a copy of the Model then, its no real work after all. It might destroy some Details tho, currently I'm using a 1k for the Flesh, Bones and Cloth each, and I want to bake them together into a single 1k Texture. Hopefully it just doesn't loose too much, if it does, I'll bake it into a 2k/4k aswell, and of course clean up where I can.
>>416046007A lot of people want games to waste their time.
>>416044687easy solution, anon.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0CMXDmQyVI
>>416045105>>416046139did you freaking paint the robe? IN blender????
>>416045656Forgot to mention that I do not recognize that Movie, so I'd really appreciate it if you tell me, looks Fun. Sorry for Off-Topic.
>>416045597Ah, that does sound troublesome and beyond my ability to advise. Good luck with it.>>416046304Big Trouble in Little China.
>>416037026It works fine for sci-fi games.
>>416046007So they can sell skips.
>>416046295Yes, the whole Thing is painted in Blender. I originally wanted to try out ArmorPaint for this, but I forgot. And I didn't like it all that much from when I tried out a bit of painting on the Gun, but I think that may have just me not being used to a new Program. Here's the Greyscale Texture of the Toga itself, just using SmartUV Unwrap since I'll bake them together later anyway so the Layout doesn't matter. The Color and Alpha ones are really simple, just some big Blobs of Color/Erased Alpha, then smoothed out and smudged a little, then multiplied with this Textures Color/Alpha.
>>416044687I think part of the reason my last long term GF left me was because 7-5 was work and 6-9 was dev time.So we'd only get like an hour a day to do shit like netflix or whatever.I don't really care. This will hopefully pay off eventually.
>>416046434Thank you.
>>416046139>>416046304the movie is Big Trouble in Little Chinait's very, very cheesy but I like it. if you like horror movies, John Carpenter has a great selection; The Thing is my favorite movie of all timeI think Anon is right about the sleeve, it looks better if only the bottom of the robe is transparentAlso, you've really outdone yourself on this one, he is lovely!who knows where i'd be at if I had to do these myself. truly you are the most powerful poster here

>>416049720>https://files.catbox.moe/0fdtxl.mp4I can't listen cause i'm at work so I can't comment on if the sound was good, though I assume it is. I've never played your game even though I've wanted to, and the trailer made me want to play it even more, so i'd say it's a good trailer. Very cute too. GMI so hard
>>416049720wonderful work, gmi.
>>416044687>>416044991Dunno. Mine is wonderful and supportive. Bad choices, I guess.
>>416046007The point of video games is to waste the excess time of children and SSI recipients. The notion that a game should be 'fun' rather than addictive has never held sway in game development.
>>416049720>https://files.catbox.moe/0fdtxl.mp4Trailer is great, the only thing is that I still have no idea what the game is about. It's a puzzle game, but I didn't really understand the frog mechanic from the trailer
>>416049693>>416050016
>>416050098male fairies don't exist, they reproduce with human semen, by spreading dust on you that makes you have wet dreams, and then covering themselves in it like a bee covers itself in pollen. Or they just convince humans to hotglue them.
>>416050291>frog
>>416049720Well, I'm biased since I already know it from these threads, but that's super cute and I'm grinning from ear to ear. Not a very exciting climax, though - maybe needs a section with the buff fairy performing a last-second sacrifice or something?Also I think a gallery with little gag illustrations would make a great unlockable extra.
>>416049720very nice
>>416049720It's fun, but it doesn't really tell you what the game is about...
>>416049720Very good, there's some great moments. My suggestions:The first shot should show the fairy getting eaten, not running away and escaping. That way, you have action and consequence set up perfectly. Getting eaten is also a unique and funny thing that will grab attention right away.The shot with some tutorial screens should be cut. Can't really read it, doesn't serve a purpose here.Zoom in more. You're doing it some, but what's happening should be framed more thoughtfully. The very last shot, for instance, should be like 2x closer so you can see the expression on the fairies face. Make a fake level so the toads are closer I'd you have to. Go through and zoom in more shots as much as possible, and fake whatever you have to to accomplish that.

>>416050656>The first shot should show the fairy getting eaten, not running away and escaping. That way, you have action and consequence set up perfectly. Getting eaten is also a unique and funny thing that will grab attention right away.I'm thinking >blue fairy pokes a bunch of grey toads>blue fairy pokes green toad>runs off screen>toad shoots out tongue>blue fairy gets caught and dragged back to the toad>but it cuts away just before she gets swallowed, to increase tension and leave the viewer wondering just how graphic it would have been
I'll make crumble but it's a polygon instead of a cube

>>416049720As someone who hates most trailers with the burning rage of 1000 suns, there's 2 problems I have with it.Firstly it's not telling enough about the gameplay, it leaves me wondering what the concrete objective of the game is. It should show a clip of a level being completed or something.Secondly it doesn't show any particularly interesting looking levels so it doesn't give me the impression that the game's content is good. Maybe that's just a result from the game being unfinished though (?).Also, there should be a sound effect at then end when the game title pops up.Visually and thematically it's attractive though, and the trailer gets right into the gameplay which is good.

Somehow every rare enemy guarantees a unique drop. Even if there arent any uniques possible for an item category. Gotta rework the whole drop calculation thing i guess
>>416052759>It should show a clip of a level being completedJust to clarify, I didn't mean show the whole level, I mean just a second or two to show the level ending being triggered.

I rewrote the ship alignment controls. Was previously based on pure math (harmonic oscillator with critical damping). But that allows too little control. Rewrote it with something custom, which ticks all the boxes: No overswinging when reaching target angle; smooth start and end; no jerky direction change on massive input changes; fine-tuned control by time and angle-based variables.Also re the outline discussion: I nuked outlines completely. Even high-end implementations suffer from limitations such as visibility through occlusion and depth issues. Not worth it, especially with the necessary complexity (extra shaders, framebuffers etc).In general, good progress today. Tell me about demo day: Do I just pack together a little demo to zoom around? How complete should it be? I should probably have a name by then? How big is exposure - normies or just 4ch?
Well, glad to know I'm on the right track.>>416050127>so you will be sticking with PAT?Yeah, I haven't started any of of my other game ideas to try to not drop the project.>don't forget to add your steam and release date tooThere is no steam page or release date.

I wonder if she shrieked in terror as she realized her entire life built to this sad, pathetic moment, and died in pure, unadulterated agony as she was dissolved by acids, thrashing in ungodly pain until her last moments.Poke All Toads dev...they GET me!!!!Jesus, I haven't been this hard in fucking years, something about watching slutty little bitches lives ending as they get mulched into shit and gore drives me fucking wild, the waste of their potential and little bodies and warm snatches is the hottest fucking shit man i hope the game has more vore in it like this it just makes me SO HORNY FUCKNGHHH, LOOK AT HER FACE, SHE'S ABOUT TO BURST INTO TEARS OF HORRORTHERE IS LITERALLY NOTHING BETTER THAN WATCHING THE EXACT MOMENT SOMEONE INNOCENT REALIZES THEY ARE ABOUT TO DIE

Apparently i had a bug that made sure all enemies are pulled from the data for level 1. Now goblinos in deeper levels have a slight color variation and they are stronger. I also doubled some room generation number so theres shorter corridors and more rectangles filled with green meanies.>>416053781Im sure im implementing a shitload of bugs right now all for you to findTo see how things come to life is like a drug. You just need to get more of it. Sadly im lagging behind with all the sprites and sounds i need

well I'll ask while the coom-energy is high; what would make you want to play a 2D porn game? knowing the most nudity you'll see is some tiddies? no visual novels allowed

>>416054825>Abandoned Oneill cylinderThat's actually pretty nifty idea. You're salvageer or shipwreck, finding a huge, abandoned, maybe quarantined space world that's been dark for centuries.

Some NPCs have found peace in the Necrovale. Still trying to figure out what sort of help this guy can afford. Maybe some kind of permanent buff when you give him a tarot card?
>>416055083a quick idea for less new sprites would be to make a spear throwing goblin for level 2. at least as a temporary enemy to create variety.all you'd need is to add new animations for the same goblin sprite
>>416055146Come up with spooky monsters.Probably researchers that have gone insane too.You'd have to do some research into the concept so you're not just capitalizing on the idea without understanding it.

>>416055260I want a good ending where somehow you convince him he's already dead (hallucinogenics of some sort maybe) and he becomes a completely fearless berserker who you can choose to tag along with. he'll refuse any health potions and give you a constant buffer against despair, shouting war cries after every kill
>>416055242I was actually planning an adventure game where you're a lawyer trying to get in touch with the station's reclusive owner, despite his army of servant-bots insisting he's not to be disturbed
I have a quick and random question,for a while I have been wanting to try making a text based RPG Style 'game' and because I know next to nothing about coding, will be learning as I go but I can't decide which option of how to approach it that I should go with.Should I?>just make a few 'proof of concept' things which would be as barebones as possible and mostly just be entirely for trying to learn how to do various shit quicklyor>take it slow with the concept I actually want to do and ensure I actually understand and can properly use the shit I am learning/trying to do
>>416055270True. Theres still plenty of time until next DD, so i can probably do that plus get another one in there. The player sprites are the bigges pain though with all the different items and actions>>416055260>>416055473Strong viking vibe with those two. Maybe replace one of the two 'infinite' with a synonym, like perpetual or boundless. Sounds less mystical and eloquent if its redundant i think
>>416055607Holy shit that sounds awesome. DONE.
>>416055878You're not experienced enough to gain anything from taking it slow. Best bet is to fail as fast as possible.
>>416053606Ok, sorry. I will stop shipposting.>>416053792I am a technically a NEET but I love video games not just because of money. I am not Cris btw if that's what you're thinking.
>>416055828That sounds more like puzzle adventure, Like Starship Titanic
>>416055996Thanks, changed it to "A sailor on the infinite ocean. A keeper of the endless moments.".
>>416055878I agree with the quick and dirty approach. The coding should be pretty low on your priority list, a quality of game like this is in the writing and/or art.
>>416055878>just make a few 'proof of concept' things which would be as barebones as possible and mostly just be entirely for trying to learn how to do various shit quicklydo this
Could Haunted Chocolatier be on it's way to become one of the best games of all time?
>>416052759The objective of the game is literally in the title.
>>416055242That's just the plot to Rendezvous with Rama
>>416055878if you're trying to learn basics while building something you care about, you will frequently hit roadblocks where you have to scrap and redo parts that were designed poorly. and then probably get burned out from having a lot of your effort wasted without tangible progress.versus making babby's first Breakout clone will probably help you understand how to structure things, and if it's shitty and barely works, you throw it out and use what you learned to make a slightly better Space Invaders clone, etc.The whole time in the background you can keep thinking of things for your long-term project and start trying to work out how to organize it, while it's still just a flowchart on paper. So when you decide you know enough to start working on it, you can avoid a lot of early mistakes that will fuck over your development months later
>>416056552It will meet the same fate as Air Pear.
>>416056552Well, do you like when a cover band plays one of their original songs? No? Then you probably won't like Haunted Chocolatier.
>>416035082Its this woman. I wonder how well it'd have done if she never showed herself or revealed her voice. Doesn't help that I suspect the real maker of the game is the guy that eventually pops up in the videos. Iirc he's the one that made that open source code for the walls. Very sus, makes me think he put her up as the face of the game.
>>416056196Yeah, probably. I never got very far with the idea aside from a simple prototype of how you'd be able to get around inside the cylinder with your jetpack, but gameplay would've consisted of equal parts talking to the servants for information, platforming to get places you're not supposed to, and logicking around security measures designed to keep you out.>>416056618Yeah but Rendezvous With Rama wasn't a dungeon crawler despite having a setting well-suited for it, so that's fertile ground for a game.
>>416056618RwR is a game about first contact with aliens. Game about ancient human cylinder has different vibe. You'd have more "modern" and dilapidated looking space station environment explored by far more advanced and scifi PC. Could range anything from a walking simulator to Dead Space and everything in between.
>>416056649Is Air Pear proof that SDV was just a chance success?
>>416056632ye, but as I said the thing I want to do will be almost purely text based, like I doubt there will be much 'art' or anything that which isn't text, meaning that by my train of thought, even if I do have to throw out an entire system I likely will still be able to reuse whatever flavour text I wrote for the new/better system
Small progress! Did mace attacks! Now I just need to figure out a way to do trails for boomerangs and arrow.Then I'll play around with magics. I might also consider giving enemy attacks similar swooshes and stuff but maybe less flashy, to make them more obvious they're happening and give a rough idea of where the attack is. I'll play around with it and see what happens.
>>416055260>>416055473Maybe the people who escape the necrovale have found such peace that it radiates on the protagonist, giving him strength.
Thinking of replacing all the human(oid) enemies in my FPS with stylized robots, mostly as an excuse to avoid having to write smarter AI. I suspect players are more willing to forgive dumb actions by in-game robots. What do the ideaguys think?
>>416057448Robots make for better shooting to be honest
>>416057448Are they gonna do any cool robot stuff to make up for the more limited AI?
Finally decided on the intro and outro to my game. Seems pretty good considering the overall plot. But I may need to hire an artist to draw these cutscenes because there is no way I can draw to the level of quality I imagined. It still feels like a lot of work is needed for my game and that is making my anxiety go up.Anyone else get more anxious as there game gets closer to a potential release?
>>416057181No it's proof you should focus on something youre passionate about instead of something you make in hopes of making a quick buck. It's not like he made airpear and then Stardew, he was well on its way with Stardew and took a break for airpear
I can't believe I forgot time playing slots when it's not even close to finished yet.Idk what it is but I keep thinking "Just one more spin maybe then..." and I haven't won that much yet despite playing longer than I should have =_=I know I could just go into the code and make myself win more but I just wanted to see how much money I could get without "cheating" and it got out of hand hahaRight now you are essentially playing for free, you don't have to pay for the spins but that'll change in the future.I'm thinking of a fixed amount or maybe let you decide how much you want to wager per spin and also increase the winnings based on that :)Should also add a visible timer so you know how much time you wasted lolIt's not quite done yet as I was saying but I've put it on itch now for the curious ones https://py-dev.itch.io/pyslotThere's also a summary in the description how much symbols are and what combos exist etc.What an eventful day - progress!Nini~

Why is Eric so greedy he's making a new game? He's already earned 100 million so why not retire? Is nothing ever enough.
>>416058382>>416058625I can give you amateurish quality art, maybe very simple animation (tiddy drops, squeezes, that kinda thing) but the gameplay is where I'm struggling for ideas>>416058756>one handed gameplaythat throws another spanner in the works, what was your idea? I'll carry the torch for you and mention you in the special thanks
>>416058998I'm Eric's girlfriend my name is Christopher Poole
>>416057580I was thinking of making the enemies more chatty than I originally planned because I can shamelessly use text-to-speech programs if they're robots
>>416059115You're delusional if you think he wants money. If he wanted money he would be selling the massive free Stardew updates as expansions and working on Stardew 2It's a passion thing, you wouldn't understand
>>416059130>but the gameplay is where I'm struggling for ideasWell, that's the core of the game no matter how many tits you decorate it with, so you'll have to figure it out.>>416059205That's a good start, but do you have anything in terms of gameplay?Like how you can shoot their heads off and they start firing wildly, possibly hitting their friends in Binary Domain.
>>416059376If it was a passion thing he would make a niche passion project that won't make any money because you're the only person that wants to play it, he makes another all ages game with wide appeal that is guaranteed to print dozens of millions. There's no possible way a 30 year old man wants to make and play SV/HC, he just wants to make money by farming the female "gamer" audience.
please stop doing chibi unless you are going for the cute wholesome style like alchemy game.
>>416059130>one handed gameplayWhat is the theme of the game exactly? Besides that it contains boobs.Is there any threatening enemy you fight or avoid? Is it a dialog reading sim? A match 3 to see titties game?Tell me what game you are making and I would love to help. I hope you fare better with the physics than I did.

>>416060241>he fell for the pixelshit filter on 3D model meme
Doing lots of bugfixes and work on rifts and some underlying tech. Effects are more distance based and such. Also changing lots of background scalars based on how I've seen testers play
>>416060570He won't. It's Cris. He never gets past the T pose. He went through the effort of rendering this into useless T pose images so he could get (You)s here. Sad, really, because he's wasted the precious seconds his 9 year work flow saved him.
>>416060498>What does 3D add to this genre? There's no pointI haven't played any of them, but isn't designing your ideal farm and home a big part of the appeal? A third dimension and being able to rotate the camera and buildings seems like it would add a lot of room for player expression.
>>416060609>Why shouldn't I make porny chibiYou should, the market for this exists shown by how much people want to fuck Animal Crossing characters
>>416059986They are cute and sexy, you will see soon.
I feel like I'm dying, lads
>>416059692>That's a good start, but do you have anything in terms of gameplay?As a 1MA who would like finish some time this decade, I'm trying to keep the enemies as simple as those in Wolfenstein 3D (1992), if, not simpler, so stuff like region-based damage is not an attractive idea. That said, if you have ideas that are really technically simple, I'm open to hearing them.
>>416060919RIP knightsneed
>>416060830>but isn't designing your ideal farm and home a big part of the appeal?Maybe to someone, but the ideal farm to me is just one that gives me more money and waters itself so I only have to work on it once a season. From my experience HarvestMoon-likes turn the farming into a side thing, the real reason you play the game is for the dating/friend/wife sim

Keep looking up gamedev info and I keep finding 2022 results. Is this a sign that there is about to be another pleathora of game released on Steam in the coming years? How much is the 40-60 games a day thing likely to increase by?
>>416060570I will animate her and get her idle animation.So far I'm figuring out stuff.Maybe I will make her into an AI animation.
>>416061248>>416061474>>416061508The first result of searching "nine hells" is the Forgotten Realms wiki.
>>416061248Stuns and infighting are relatively simple, so that is something to play with. Thanks
>>416057291oh sorry, I somehow missed the text-based part. In that case you could just start with Twine, it's not a great engine but you can put together prototypes very quickly, without needing to know much about coding at all
>>416061426>>416061424very true very truetoo many possibilities
>>416061734can you do thatwith her boobs
>>416061618Then you should read more
>>416061426I can see that if they took advantage of it. Most Harvest Moon games don't, but one that actually takes time to make nice 3D cutscenes might make you fall more in love with the bachlorettes. Especially if they have cute mannerisms.

>>416061734Is the mouth just a texture?
>>416061807Having to press a button "to the rhythm" in the middle of an otherwise normal third person action game sounds like a shit gimmick. They might have just shown it off very poorly though, cause it looked like you just press it once every 3 minutes of normal combat, instead of any actual rhythm.
>>416061245Starting to feel a bit like TrueFacials. Good!
>>416062085it's uhh, a texture with an alpha clip, it can "open up" where you can see a cavity with teeth and stuff
>>416062450I want to see the lewd dragon
>>416062450So you can put things in there. That's the important part.
>>416062450That's an interesting but smart way of doing it, no need for mouth rigging. But also no lips, the blowjobs will be lackluster
>>416059707Do you really think girl gamers give a fuck about combat? He does this kind of games because this sort of high freedom rpgs are his thing. his favorite series growing up was harvest moon, his favorite game is minecraft and he plays a lot of world of warcraft. He is doing what he loves
>>416059858right now my idea is painful vague and I've no theme I'm set on, except maybe beach/summer themed and couple that with a beach sport like volleyball, or make up some mishmash of sports. or detach the gameplay from the booba-revealing-mechanics completely and the booba and booba-animations are rewards for defeating challengers. I guess first I gotta decide if the gameplay and booba are simultaneous or separate.i also just thought of having a straight up girlfriend simulator because it's been four years since I've known the touch of a woman and I sometimes wake up thinking about her and how much I miss us but that can get too dark/self-involved/unhealthy quick haha (:
>>416059707>There's no possible way a 30 year old man wants to make and play SV/HC, Retard
>>416061393For some reason wishlists shot up again, just like after the splattercat video.I guess that reddit thing got lots of attention? No idea though.
>>416061718that was actually my plan for learning stuff to just try some prototype stuff in twine so I can get the basics of how code functions down, just simply because I have zero clue what any terms commonly used in coding are, like I spent like 5 hours today just trying to understand what a variable was and what they can be used for.Like I ain't even begin to imagine what the flying hell shit like 'if/else/or' and all that other 'commonly used terms' could possibly be used for, or how I even would begin to make use of themplus Twine looked easy enough for basic bitch Text based games, even if they do end up being glorified CYOA things with minor 'game' elements
>>416063279What Reddit thing, I only ever heard about this here
>>416059707I'm a 30 year old boomer and I enjoyed playing SV with a girl
>>416062962>or detach the gameplay from the booba-revealing-mechanics completelyAvoid that if possible.I think even in porn games, all the elements should be striving to work together holistically.

>>416063279How is the development of Underspace and the company behind funded? Does the members of your company have main jobs in other companies, or do are you spending personal funds, or some other way? The Kickstarter didn't have anywhere near enough to pay experienced and skilled developers for years, so I'm curious as to how you fund the company.

>>416065826>>416065928I mean, if it's a bad or sensitive question, I'll stop asking.But sounds like you have funding for Underspace under control.I don't think I have to ask whether you are working fulltime (or more than 40+ hours) on the game, for I don't see Underspace having gotten this far (yes, I know it has been years since the Kickstarter, but even then) just working part time on it.
>>416065928>underspacedev is Todd’s little buttboyNo wonder you suck his dick 24/7.
>>416064897And I know this is belated...
>>416065892I bet my diverse harem of lolis makes you mad jelly.
New passive.
>>416066281>>underspacedev is Todd’s little buttboy>No wonder you suck his dick 24/7.Are you Trainwiz' wife?Is Trainwiz' wife also a skilled game developer?Does she also work on Underspace, fulltime or part time?
>>416066264I'm not kidding. I do work for Bethesda and that pays for my life and my game.
>tfw you have all the time in the world but you still don't work on your game>get casually outpaced by people with full-time jobsSpecial kind of hell.
>>416066542well if its any consolation its all your own fault
>>416063987No, just some girl from the internet that ghosted me afterwards.
>>416066435She's a drawfag in Fallout general now
>>416066606Is it?I don't remember ever wanting or choosing to be like this.
>>416066542unironically skill issuedon't compare yourself when you're not as skilled
>>416066190>Volleyball league manager sim>One of the main factors of how much money you get is how sexy the girls that play for your league are>The other is their uniforms>Spend time and money scouting the cutest girls>Market them and make them popular>Force them to make youtube videos where they're extra cute outside of volleyball games so people fall in love with them>Fabricate cute but non-destructive drama between girls to get people more invested in matches>End up with volleyball WWE>Actual skill affects the income by 1%
>>416066435>Are you Trainwiz' wife?Yes>Is Trainwiz' wife also a skilled game developer?Yes>Does she also work on Underspace, fulltime or part time?I do all the coding and art. He just plays the game, shitposts webms on 4chan, and plays with the cat.We haven’t had sex in months.
>>416065334>slot in different blades as ammoBased sneed kino.
>tfw no starfield gameplayAt least Underspace is here.
>>416066436Thanks for the explanation, Mr. Trainwiz. Seems like a mutually beneficial deal, there are always risk for projects like this, but Bethesda can easily take the loss if that ends up happening, and this seems like a project where the success rate might be high, the possible gains are very high, and the risk and possible loss is rather low, given how little money is spent on the project with just one or a few employees. And if you are friends, all the better. Frens helping frens.
>>416066749How do you figure?Time spent is time spent.
>>416066994but they have showed someit looked like shit
why does young Todd kind of look like Eric Barone?
>>416067089it takes time to learn skills, anon...
>>416066823>He just plays the game, shitposts webms on 4chan, and plays with the cat.Based.>We haven’t had sex in months.Cringe.
>>416066542Slow and steady wins the race.
>>416066190I hadn't even though about raising my BPM, you raise a good point here anonI was already thinking about the mc having A cups* so that raises it to 4, but I could have pairs too (if I don't get totally filtered by the AI coding).this is helping me develop some ideas for some of the subtext in the dialogue; the mc being relatively flat chested will make her envious/frustrated which gives her some kind of edge like overall better stats (that become less relevant as you progress through harder opponents)also already thinking of ditching volleyball and instead going for something likehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPrsTQIVoXEbut with a variable mix of busty, athletic and muscular girls instead of hulking menalso 3rd person, behind the player camera view instead>>416066775that's an idea for you anon but now that you mention it custom and unlockable uniforms will be really important
>>416067191Incredibly punchable face.
>>416067191why indeed
>>416066621And that's based
>>416067191Can't believe this guy is both a furry and a lolicon.
>>416067357fucking hate that interview. Todd doesn't give a fuck about your pseudo-science "the world is a simulation" bullshit
>>416066436>I do work for Bethesda and that pays for my life and my game.Awesome. Do they pay you to develope your game or do you develope other games for bethesda and develope underspace in your spare time? If it is the later, how come they allow you to do it? Legally speaking I mean,
>>416067663its 'develop'
Have you got any tips for keep moving forward?A stupid thing that works with me: with every new big implementation I add a number to my version counter 0.04, 0.05 etc. If the number goes up my monkey brain is happy.
>>416067663I make things for them and they give me money and free shit. It's how I got my switch and my xbox on top of the money.
>>416067197If I was using my time constructively to learn stuff, that'd be one thing. But I'm not. I just sit and hate that I'm doing nothing, somehow unable to transform that feeling into any sort of action.>>416067284Maybe, but I'm slow and unsteady, like a narcoleptic tortoise racing hares with A-tier work ethic.
>>416067758This just reads like a convoluted way to trick you into buying skyrim on more platforms.
>>416067740I keep a dev diary. No matter what, I open that fucker up and write the date every day. usually it snowballs.
>>416067607bethesda is based
>>416068070I get Skyrim for free.
Fun for the whole family. :3
>>416066354It sounds painful
>>416068169I'm sorry to say Todd Howard did not work on Battlespire. He did do designs for other games though. Which makes sense cause the children in Skyrim are not desireable enough, no lolicon energy can be found anywhere
>Eric Barone>Wife sugardaddy>Made it>Trainwiz>Todd Howard sugardaddyUndespace is going to make it.Is the trick to making it having a sugardaddy?
>>416068606Even further, Todd never worked on the good TES games like Daggerfall.
>>416068252looks like a _fun_ level, good job
>>416068618>pays you to follow your passionsdefinitely>>416068719Todd is credited for additional design in Daggerfall
>>416068606true, todd was more into furry stuff
>>416068618The trick is accept Todd's love
I saw mommy kissing yog-sothoth
>>416068759I hope it turns out fun. I'm trying to make it fun to explore since the layout's pretty much done.
>>416068842I did it cause it rhymes. I'm not a furry
>>416069006Todd, please...
>>416068252Your flat white meme sprites are trash and I’m tired of pretending they’re not.
>>416068882But Amber Hageman is not Todd Howard.They don't even look like each other.Having a sugardaddy to fund your game is the way to make it, it seems.Worked for Stardew Valley, will work for Underspace.
good news.I'm gonna stop making art.from now on I will behave like if I lacked art skills and I totally refuse from now even bothering to do shit beyond using placeholders.
>>416069212
>>416069167that's right, no game with 3rd party funding has ever failedwe just make discoveries after discoveries in this general, damn!

>>416069389More data just complicates things in all honesty.
>>416069104Thanks, I agree. I was gonna color them once upon a time, but they turned out even worse.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIPmjnsCPR4Hard work, consistently over a very long period of time is the only way to make it.
>>416069740wikipedia retard cope.There's nothing that colombia makes besides cocaine.
>>416069448But it's true.As it turns out,Friendship Is Magic.More people in aggydaggy should team up.But can you team up without legal stuff?So should gamedevs learn legal stuff and then make frenships?
>>416069865it certainly makes retards
>>416069865And prostitutes with formidable derrieres.
>>416049720Did some changes, I think it's ready. Thanks to everyone who gave suggestions or commented on it. I will try to do the same for you if I see trailers posted in future threads. https://files.catbox.moe/k5pjdg.mp4Now that I listened to the music track so much I notice its flaws a lot, but I want to be done with this and just post itonline.
>>416069789As opposed to easy work?
>>416069951>And prostitutes with formidable derrieres.The derrieres aren't even natural, so can we really say they make them?

>>416069918Wait.Maybe frenships without legal stuff are better.So make games with frens and family?
>>416068943Something doesn't look right>>416069212That's the same excuse I use to cope too
>>416069970As opposed to just picking at something a little bit at a time, and screwing off a lot.
>>416070061kek he really gets feisty when the manic state is over huh
>>416070028If they aren't natural then of course someone has to make them. Imagine, a factory of ASS.
>>416069965Much better, but I feel like there should be text saying "Can you poke all toads and make it back alive?"
>>416070061pulzo colombia cope, there's nothing that colombia makes besides videos on how colombia is a narcostate
You know you're gmi when you start getting crabbed
>>416070061Stop blaming your country over your terrible life choicesI'm a third worlder too and I don't need to rely on my game becoming a success because I'm doing just fine.
>>416070396Bokube confirmed gonna make it.
>>416069965Definitely better.
rate
>>416070396>Got crabbed for about a week>Then it stoppedI'm NGMI...
>>416068552She's flashing her crotch, not necessarily kicking you in the crotch.
>>416070446so your third world country gives you opportunities and a good way to do "just fine"my options are risk my life in the streets selling cocaine or work a job that doesn't even pay $10 a day do don't act like we are on the same levelI just have to wait for the AI image to animation workflow to be perfected and I will finally make my gamenot cris just practicing
>>416070715not enough cubes
>>416070309Text was by far the most difficult part of all this. Chosing what to write, where to put it, how much time it should appear on the screen, making it in aseprite, etc. I didn't even put my name there because I wasn't happy with any of my attempts. I will take this as a first trailer, there is no reason why I shouldn't make another one in the future.
>>416070715I don't understand, where are the orbs?
man, honestly, the only thing I can reliably make so far, is these type of sprites.
>>416070751They key to getting crabbed is to argue and get combative with your fellow crabs. If you get crabbed and dismiss it like a pussy, or god forbid, agree with it, you're not gonna get crabbed enough to make it.
>>416070715lighting looks all over the placebut otherwise it's fine
>>416069865It's only like 1.06% of your GDP you dummy.
>>416070715Looks like a lighting tech demo.
>>416070715finally... shaft-likes
>>416070751tfw never got crabbed when posting game
>>416070758why not both
>Troonwiz works for Bethesda>His game lacks any interesting, memorable or compelling charactersReally makes you think.
>>416070903>or god forbid, agree with itHuh, so that's why
>>416070396Got crabbed once, but that was cause my game was shit. I got cute fanart though
>>416071036Trainwiz wife, stop crabbing your husband's game.(Or are you crabbing to ensure it makes it? >>416070396 )
>>416071036par for the course reallythough I'll bethesda some credit and say that Fallout 4 is better in this regard
>>416070895you ever think maybe the biggest, chronic problem is indecisiveness? what's stopping you from drawing more of that character, an environment, some props, and writing a game?
>>416070396How many crab posters do you need to make it?
>>416069965The part that's just tutorials is really weird to me, still.Maybe you could zoom that part in so it's just the pictures? Show off the cute illustrations.
Veteran crab here, can confirm I am not trying to help you improve your game by criticizing it. I just don't like you.
what would he think of your game?
>>416069965Looks great, nice work. I think you're on the road to success. Just get your steam page up, like now. Wishlists > Demo plays
>>416070790>actually my country is shittier than yoursthis is the worst cope I read so far, you would still be an autistic manchild with no future on any other country
>>416069965I dislike the music, but otherwise good. The atmosphere of the music is good and fitting, but I dislike the music itself.
>>416070812There is always trailer two to expand on. This does get the premise across. Have you uploaded this to Twitter yet?
>>416071480for a second I genuinely thought he went even more insane then I read the filename
>>416071480He'd be proud that I'm working hard on something, even if he doesn't get it.
>>416071515>There is always trailer two to expand onSeconding this. The game is hugely reliant on its characterful cast, so it's gonna be much more marketable once more fairies get implemented.
>>416070790if you took the job then maybe you'd finally afford a door
>>416070396I got crabbed for making a loli game, I guess I'm gonna make it.
>didn't get crabbed yetFUCK
>>416071480>Daedric script is literally just the English Alphabet with the letter shapes changed a bitBethesda "worldbuilding," everyone.
can you make a loli game if all you have is programmer art and a mouse?
Also, adding incidental character animations to cutscenes. It's a polish piece, but it adds a lot
>>416041978first glance I thought it was a bathroom with some glowing toiletsuse this info wisely
>>416071880You could make a text-based loli game.But you'd probably be better off scrounging up enough cash to buy pro at for a vertical slice, then using that to market.
>>416033710Sick. That one major highlight on the front of the robe could use a *little* more smudging so it's like the ones above and below it. It draws a little too much focus at the moment.
>>416071880make her with code
>>416071257I cant sustain making art for a long time.
>>416072242>tfw this is just a filter and you still have to know to draw
>>416072337Sustaining the creative process is a learned skill.
>>416071418It is a bit weird, but it shows the pictures. From my small experiments in twitter people seemed to react better to the images with the tutorial text. Though I almost don't have followers so maybe it was just noise.>>416071484>Just get your steam page up, like now. Wishlists > Demo playsThat will be the next step, but I have to deal with some weird stuff with my bank account first. I travelled abroad and I really think I should get a new bank account before linking it to steam.>>416071497Yeah, I will have something better for next one.>>416071515I did just now https://twitter.com/spacematra/status/1618369125335830540
>>416049720Serious GMI vibes here anon. One thing I'll say is that you should get a steam page together, and have "WISHLIST NOW" with a steam icon at the end instead of just "DEMO AVAILABLE"
>>416072410except I have mental problems, right now I'l feeling extremelly sleepy, and that's pretty much half of the day I feel extremell sleepy.
>>416072482nice blogpost, how do i unsubscribe?
I just came to the realization that Java games can't be ported to consoles, and JavaScript games are super easy to deminify, making anti-cheat or hidden achievements impossible. (The only two languages I'm good at) Balls, do I have to learn C++?
Why are you losers still making 2D games in SpriteShartMaker2000 or whatever? You realize that Unreal Engine is free and that Blender is not only also free but finally good?Aint nobody wants to play a 2D game in 2023
>>416072926post game
>>416072720Just like make game, if you're really afraid of becoming obsolete, just use Godot.
>>416072720I wouldn't worry about it. Release on pc first. If it becomes a success then worry about it. There are even companies that specialize in ports that you can consider hiring.
>>416072926I disagree with the niggardly tone of your post, but I agree with your point. Gaming audiences are no longer interested in 2Dshit. That ship has sailed.
>>416070895Cris, you should unironically make a porn game in this style.
>>416073252he wont
>>416070715Paul Allen's card/10>>416072042Oh, never mind. I see you went full sicko mode. Very cool. I wish I wasn't retarded and could do transparent materials like that. I only tried on one school project and fucked it up so my fishes had boring opaque fins.>>416045413>>416046139
>>416073252what I need is a fucking manager.
>>416073124yes it has sailed, after coming back, which was after it sailed, after it was moored for a while, which it did after it had sailed off, shortly after having come back, set off again, came back, sailed off, was moored for a year or two, then sailed.... that ship is long sailed
I am both improving and eternally stuck in Blender at all times.This is supposed to be a health potion. How the fuck do I made good looking glass and liquid materials?
Make a bun game
>>416073369I think that ship is smuggling something back and forth.
>>416073252>Cris>Make a gameWoah woah woah, let's not go nuts.
>>416073409What have you tried so far
>>416073409looks good to me
>>416073409You don't. Usually you do it in engine.Unless your game is prerednered or whatever.
>>416073445I'm on it! will have a prototype tomorrow. right now you can only feed them but I should have the cooking implemented soon
Are tank controls and twin stick controls different terms for the same thing?
>>416073960no
>>416074059What's the difference?
>>416074121You ever played a fucking video game before anon? Or used google? Tank controls means left/right changes your direction, up/down moves you forward/back along your direction. Twinstick means that one stick controls movement (up is up, left is left, etc...) and the other stick controls your shooting (hold left to shoot left, hold down to shoot down).
>>416074121one is tank controls and the other is twin stick controls...
>>416073518So far I've fucked around with the material settings in blender, followed 2 youtube tutorials, searched online for materials I can base off of. This is the combined result of these.>>416073672Game is meant to be prerendered, yeah. Just trying to make things look nice for the sake of learning & to get best quality renders. I will likely need to know more about materials when I'm making the tilesets.
I'm throwing in the towel and targeting releases to every other month instead of every month.
>>416074383it begins...
>>416071871The only game with a sort of good made up written language I've ever seen was Warframe. Picture related is what it looks like. And yes, it is a word made up of several letters.
>>416073452Pirated games.
>>416074370https://youtu.be/JYyUMMboZFk
>>416074328>You ever played a fucking video game before anon?No. But thank you for the explanation.
I will make 50 games before I die
>>416074518Untitled Unity Project (4) doesn't count
>>416074472I'll give this a go, at least it's not another Indian guy struggling to breathe while we speaks.
>>416074738Your words don't count.
>>416074738I disagree - I think that any project which involves the use of Unity and has a game-like objective should count as a game. There are many different types and genres of games, and while they all have certain elements in common, they don't have to have all of the same elements to be considered a 'game'. Unity Project (4) is an interactive experience, and it can certainly be considered a type of game. It has a goal, levels, and rewards, which are all elements of a game. Additionally, it has a story, characters, and objectives, which are all components of many types of games. Therefore, I believe that it can be classified as a game.

do you ever look at your project and say "if is not good now when will it get better"
>>416075406every day
More progress! Added some better swooshy effects to boomerangs. Noticed a few minor things I need to change with this and I think the power attack needs a nerf but it looks fine.Now I need to do arrows. Then magic!
>>416075406No, I think the core game is already fun.My lack of self confidence manifests in the shape of other thoughts such as "I can't even talk to people, how the fuck am I gonna do marketing?".
>>416076051he's still holding it

The menu loop of a battle now works, and the response of what you choose passes the references needed to a scriptable object to perform the action, so should be quite extendable.Next we need to concept of health & stats so the battle can progress.
>>416076694fleshbros... what's our response?
>>416068606thers a little girl vampire in the dark brotherhoodhttps://breezewiki.vern.cc/skyrim/wiki/Babette
>>416076516You are saying what??
>>416077084Take that glass off the rabbit, don't let it asphyxiate.
>>416077084It's just the sound my air rifle makes when I take a rabbit
>>416077063Yeah and she looks hideous without mods
>>416076694How are you doing turn order?ATB or regular ol' turns?
>>416077791i dont care about your coomer mods. i dont like little girlsi was just saying todd put a lolibaba in his game
think i found the cause of a suicide inducing bug
>>416078007yeah but if the lolis look ugly then clearly Todd isn't a lolicon
>>416078331name one attractive vanilla skyrim character
>>416077993Regular old turns. I'm trying my hardest to keep the project a simple as possible so that I can complete it.Done is better than good.
>>416078396Most of the human women don't look hideous, if anything they just look slightly old, but they all have some basic attractive traits. Meanwhile all the kids look ugly. You can reach all you want, you won't find a proper argument for Todd being a pedo.
>>416078396Ysolda is marriable
>>416079015I was going to name Ysolda, but she looks like a hag so i figured that would get brought up if i mentioned her. Hroki is a decent looking vanilla character, but she has no role in anything in the game.
I already took a power nap and going to make an AI test.:)
>>416078914nta but isn't it normal for kinds to be physically and mentally unattractive?Pedos are abnormal precisely because they find undeveloped bodies and minds attractive.
i woke up i dont feel like devving
>>416079203>isn't it normal for kinds to be physically and mentally unattractive?yes, we're not arguing whether real kids are, we're arguing whether Todd is a lolicon.
>>416079376i wasn't arguing that at all. i dont give a fuck about your retarded argument. i was just saying todd put a lolibaba in his game because you said he didnt do that about some other lolibaba
>>416079218why
>>416078396Serana is the only woman in Skyrim who is ok. But if we go full skyrim purist no dlcs all women in skyrim are ugly. Bethesda can't make women.

But first they must catch you: digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning, full of tricks, and your people will never be destroyed."
>>416080692Why would he have enemies? And why would they kill him upon being caught?
I need some ideas, I'm coming up dry. With each NPC, their look changes as you befriend them. 10 levels in total. For The Harlot, I only have 6 levels of look figured out. Keep in mind, she represents shame. Need a few more things that can change about her.

>>416080692>>416081870I mean, rabbits are herbivores, and they do not have enemies, but predators. They are perfectly fine in a place without any predators, and apart possibly from plants, they don't have enemies.
>>416082197You will never kiss or hold hands with a woman
>>416082571well we both will be right sadly
>>416081898Is this necrovale?
>>416082708ya
>>416081898Your game seems awfully dark. Is it meant for adults and older teenagers?
hear me outmultiplayermicrogames
>>416081870It's a quote from Watership Down.It's an excellent example of speculative fiction for how a species that lives near the bottom of the food chain might try to rationalize their place in creation.
>>416083226Ok but how do you rationalize your place in creation?
>>416083114Is it really that dark? Hmm. The concept of a harlot is not exactly that taboo, being that I think Scarlet Letter is taught to kids around 14 or so. And my game doesn't even go into the specifics of what a Harlot even means.
>>416083226But.They are rabbits. Non-sentient animals.The whole premise is weird.And if the other animal species are sentient as well, does that mean that sentients are eating other sentients?
>>416083450By attempting to understand why suffering is an inescapable part of life. That's pretty much the basis for all religions.
>>416073409>>416074472What a difference that made. Thanks anon.Does anyone know how to get rid of the fucking tree background? Otherwise this is looking solid for my health and mana pots, then I'll just change the glass shape to a square vial for the minor ones.
>>416081898Ruffle her hair, tatter her clothes
>>416083885Ah, thats good. Thanks
>>416083693It's a fictional book, are you a robot? Also, yes, it's not a strange belief at all. The idea that animals have moral agency has been held by different cultures at many points in history, including Christianity.
>>416083536But it also has a person that you help commit suicide.
>>416083693Bunnies are sentient! They are also extremely powerful, extremely smart and extremely cute! That is why god tried to nerf them!
>>416084061That's true, you can help them with that. But at what age is suicide an acceptable topic I wonder? I feel like I knew about it pretty early on. Definitely before 10. Do you think it would be less dark if the word "suicide" was avoided? I don't really know the answers, so i appreciate your thoughts. I'm just trying to depict different ways that people respond to suffering.
>>416084001Nice insult.That it's a book doesn't change that the whole premise is weird.And animals when used in religions are, I think, not typically thought of as actual animals, but representations, abstractions and metaphors, or as representations for what amounts to human tribes. They don't consider rabbits that live as rabbits and have no tool usage as actual sentient peoples, at least not while just living as rabbits. It raises too many questions - why not begin to use tools? Begin to communicate with other species? And so on.It's like you simulate an interesting concept, but then stop the simulation without taking any logical consequences, not even in the aspects you are interested in, and then try to learn from it and teach from it.
>>416083812looks great, where is the tree texture coming from? i think it actually looks really good. up to you but I'd just hue shift it to make it more sanguine, it's a bit too pink/purpleish atm (but then again I'm thinking of health -> blood)
>>416084346If that's true, why the heck are they kept as pets? Why isn't it illegal to kill them? To hunt them?Why aren't you starting a movement to protect them?Why aren't you communicating with them, or them with us?Bundev, are you drunk? It's Wednesday, too early in the week.
Animals are sentient. Some are sapient as well, like humans (well, not all humans). Crows and dolphins have been proven in lab studies to possess metacognition, the ability to ponder the contents of their own minds.
>>416076567>Nothing stopping you from taking the current one down and reupload it exactly the same but with a better song tomorrow.I would be a ton of work. This was a milestone for me and I'm starting to feel the burndown. I need some rest.It is ok to leave rough edges from time to time.
>>416084393NTA, but the joke is clearly that even if he dies, he comes back as an undead in Necrovale. He’ll just shrug once he realizes this after waking back up.
>>416084804If true, I should have used the word "sapient". But I don't know if that would change anything.
>>416084971Oh hey, that's pretty good. Might steal this hahah
Taking a break from interacting with agdg subhumans and working on my game is going well, yes I'm using AI to make assets and no I won't argue with you about it for hours. you all just try to bring me down, faggots
