If indie games are so easy to make, then why aren't you cashing in on your own pixelshit game?
Have you tried making your own game? What was it?
Or are you just an idea guy? What's your idea then?
>>342621739
>>342621739
What game?
>>342621739
>>342622132
>>342622164
it's a /v/eme that started a few weeks ago
>>342622164
Random indie game that will never be finished.
>>342622325
How is it supposed to play?
>>342621739
I see these posted all the time. Is there an actual site for this?
>>342622490
No anon it's just a meme.
>>342622490
Some guy just posted the first girl and asked if it was decent pixel art for his game, then everyone started editing it
>>342622415
it doesn't. the original was posted by some dude asking /v/ for their opinions on the character you see on the far left. people built on it and now there's a ton of variants around
>>342622415
It's a platformer. You run and you jump. You change forms for different abilities.
Stop shilling your shitty pixel art. You make at least two threads a day.
>>342622627
Are you sure it's not all the same guy making the edits?
Or even the guy who originally posted it?
>>342621739

>>>/d/
>>342622738
Actually, this is the first time I've made the thread myself. Typically, I wait for someone else to do it. But I couldn't wait.
I offered a legit topic though. You got any game ideas, my man?
Easy doesn't mean that it won't take a shitload of time to make.
If you want to sell it, you gotta spend a lot of time and money as well(if not in the game, than in the artwork and shit like that for advertising purposes).
>>342622756
yes I'm sure. there's some that are slightly edited, there are some like you see in the pictures above. the original poster couldn't even line up the eyes correctly iirc
>>342622919
How can something be both "easy", and time&money consuming?
>>342622889
2D sidescrolling action rpg with an in depth combo combat system
2D open world rpg with either combat resembling early tales of games or ATB
>>342623046
Browsing /v/ is easy but it still eats my free time
>>342621739
Because I have actual honor.
>>342623113
Why doesn't anyone wnna make another game like Terranigma? Full action RPG with a moveset that felt really good.
>>342622801
first meme of 2016

>>342622217
>>342622325
How many fucking evolutions does this bitch have
>>342623248
I think the word you're looking for is "pride".
>>342623315
First and fastest.
>>342623315
the first meme of 2016 was your tiny dick lmao
>>342623204
But you're not actually doing anything. With game development, you're actually futzing with the engine, drawing, scripting, and all that. You're actually doing something that takes time. If it were so easy, then why aren't you making games instead of browsing /v/?
>>342621739
>>342623293
probably too many sprites, plus most people are too lazy for that, it's easier to pop out a ff clone (or any other mainstream franchise that's strongly influenced indie games) than it is to make something more intuitive.
>>342623776
Yeah, but this guy is talking about making tales of games, and sidescrolling combo battle systems. Seems to me that it would require the same amount of work.
>/v/ too afraid to give up their precious game ideas
>"I-I'll make it eventually. Until then, no one must know!"
>>342624619
It's just a generic RPG idea, all I have is characters
>>342624842
That's an interesting lot. The party members are already less generic than 90% of RPGs out there.
So it's just the standard top-down RPG game with turn based battles, or what?
>>342625045
In my head it's kinda like paper mario, with the action commands and stuff
>>342625231
So basically, it's riding on about 70% charm. I hope you can write some jokes.
What's stopping you from making this? Just get some game making software and get after it.
>>342625774
It'd probably be kinda short, I dunno how good I am at writing and I wouldn't want to push it. I also have no idea how to code, so it will likely remain an idea forever
>>342621739
Because I can't into pixelshit
>>342626034
Where do programmers go?
>>342621739
I already did, it's on Steam.
>>342626302
Yeesh, that could use some work. But it's not a bad start. Assuming you didn't copy or trace it. If you just knew some key skills, then you could clean that up real nice.
this meme sprite needs to be given a rest
>>342626367
You jest. A tripfag actually published a game? What is it? If you don't want to say, then clue us in?
>>342626479
>Assuming you didn't copy or trace it.
...
>>342626340
I program but its harder to show in these kinds of threads.
Artfags and Writefags can contribute with sprites/fics they've written. I guess I could show bots I've written and stuff
>>342626302
She looks a little deformed
>>342626340
whadya mean anon?
>>342626705
I had a feeling... Well tracing is a way of learning too. Just know the difference between your practice work, and your personal work.
>>342626757
I wouldn't know programming stuff. But if you have like, the results of your programming to display, then that might get some notice.
>>342626934
I'm perplexed as to where programmers go. Because it seems like there are a billion ideas out there, and no one to program them. But perhaps the programmers are too busy making their own games?
I feel like Tyrion from ASOIAF. He has this phrase, "where do whores go?" which he asks people.
>>342621739
This is the best one yet.
>always wanted to be the technical, programing guy instead of art or graphic design
>somehow develop functional level artistic talent before i ever worked up the courage to touch gamemaker
???
>>342627617
Congratulations, you are more qualified at things than typical people which are skill at nothing.
>>342621739
I amits a slave simulator game, but with cute bois/trapsI was gonna draw it out but loomis is too hard so I'm making it with 3d models.you have 2 ways to raise your boys, either by vanilla or turn him into a dirty slut prostitute.don't worry, my tastes in traps are sublime
>>342622801
>garflondo
>not stary the star
I am making a game over on /agdg/, store manager type game basically like Recettear.
Not that good at the pixel art though, I'll get there with practice.
>>342627274
I've done that before, I've shown platformers I've done in the amateur game dev threads but because I'm not a draw/art fag they look like boxes and poorly drawn images and nobody was interested. I could of just taken assets from other shit and thrown it in I suppose but it wouldn't look like how I'd wanted it to.
Also programmers are everywhere, they don't stay in one board.You could try /trash/ because there's a shitty meme that most Computer Science students are furfags. But then Computer Science students aren't the best programmers
>>342627865
I'm willing to donate to your kickstarter
>>342627865
Doesn't really fit my tastes. But still, godspeed. I hope you're better at modelling than you are at drawing.
I know a couple people who would be into that. Though, they would prefer a female/futa slave owner.
>>342627983
Not bad looking thus far. Certainly serviceable. I can see the want to improve it. But it's readable and clean with colors that aren't a sore to the eyes.
>>342621739
I would love to make a game, but I can't code, draw, or compose music, and being realistic my writing abilities are mediocre at best.
So since I have absolutely no talent, I'll simply not make a game.
It's called being realistic.
>>342621739
Pixelshit is overdone, and I can't draw anything for shit.
I do have a number of ideas, one for a platformer and one for an RPG. I'm trying to teach myself Java right now so I can actually make something, and hopefully shove it onto App Stores or Steam.

I do really love this meme, i love these fucking edits so much
>>342628334
Thanks anon, started learning art stuff about three weeks ago. Still not quite getting how palettes are meant to work and other specifics of pixel art but good to know I'm at least at a 'serviceable' level for now.

Anyone want to team up to make a game? I'm a programmer (software engineer masters, 300k starting) with a decent video game playing experience.

Pixelshit a fun :>
Currently making assets for a Megaman-ish game.

stop with the gay furry bullshit.
>>342629576
>>342629253
I've made exactly zero improvements since you've last seen her
>>342629568
I would, but I know I'm not disciplined enough to follow through on it. Still, nice of you to offer.
programfag here
anyone need a programmer for their project?
>>342629871
It seems to sell itself.
>>342630070
I remember you from yesterday.
>>342626302
Yes, I like this but it needs some work. Looks like you got some inspiration from two hentai artist?
I want to make a first person shooter with Super Mario Galaxy mechanics and I know nothing about linear algebra, or even calculus for that matter. Am I fucked?
>>342622801
>>342628414
i wish this game was being made
>>342629568
What precision do you use? 8 decimals or 12? And for what?
>>342630070
yiff in hell, furfag
>>342629865
you basically test the code on paper, by hand
>>342630582
Can't say it matters much in my field of work
My idea is to make a biblical building/adventure game.
>implying I'm not
Finishing something, though, is a lot harder.
>>342621739
>What's your idea then?
a Rogue-lite Doom/Quake clone
>>342631547
Liking the minimal palette.
