I would appreciate your opinions on this attempt at tree from imagination
progress haha :)
>>140620040
It looks like that tree is on roids.
No use in making a new thead.
Friendly PSA to ignore shitposting.

Trees shouldn't have 2 trunks.

>>140620040
Extremely odd and weird (the early split into two big parts is unrealistic, a bunch of smaller parts should split from one main axis more progressively) but if that's what you're going for it's distinctive, and might be good in the end.

No, you kill it.
Unless you find dog piss and bathe in it, then the dogs won't attack you and you can get to an area with a special dog item.
I came up with this idea myself.

Why don't you migrate to MonkeyX?
>>140625295
Thats it, Im retiring from amateur game dev.
>>140625470
Because it's fun to use BlitzPlus.
Okay, this is how you initialize an array with values
private int [] zzz = {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0};
How do you do the same with a 2D array?
>>140625019
It was supposed to be a human...
>>140625812
{{1,1},{1,1},{1,1}}
>>140625501
What scares me away from MonkeyX is the fact that you have to pay for some stuff.
im going to an hero the source code anon
>>140625874
Well now you have a better idea.
>>140625907
thanks mate
>>140625945
You mostly pay for modules that do advanced stuff. There's nothing you can do in blitzplus that you can't do in monkey with only free modules. Also monkeyX2 is coming.
What about blitzmax? seems like the logical update to blitplus
>>140626091
no probs.
>>140625812
no, you got that wrong
it's
int zzz[] = {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0};:^)

Making the settings menu
This is the most boring thing ever
Haven't posted in a while, but I've done a lot of refactoring and art adjustments, and decided on a working title for now. I'll be working hard over the next week to ensure the demo is ready now that I have a lot more time.
Past few days I've been working on an interface redesign, graphical options and rebindable controls. Thoughts on the readability of these fonts?
https://a.uguu.se/cvuozc_2016-04-30_17-33-32.mp4
Fixed the inventory and made this day/night system... it sucks for now. Progress is progress, right?
At least the inventory is working now.
>>140627747
Damn, that's clean
>>140627867

Who are you?
>>140628172
Well, duh, it's a 2D tree.
>>140627867
That's one good looking UI. If there was one thing, it would be that maybe the contrast between the background and the non-highlighted stuff is kinda low, at very high resolutions that might affect readability.
Does anybody know of some decent showcases of 3d Godot?

>1. draw a bunch of squiggly lines
>2. draw the fucking tree
>>140633698
I'm still a beginner in pixel art myself so take my advice with a grain of salt but don't be afraid to play with contrast more, try to use darker and lighter colors and see how it looks like.
Despite what I said your tree is quite good, I don't think there's anything wrong with it in particular.
>>140633698
Nothing looks outright wrong with this one, but there's not much to say without any context. It could be the best tree ever in the right place, or a perfect tree on it's own but fucking terrible when placed in-game.

I thought it was pretty straightforward?
I just added things one after another and they are all in there.
Changed the base color in step 8, but other than that it was just adding stuff.

I would like to change contrast depending on weather and time of day, if I ever get such things working that is...

>>140634381
I will try
thanks to all of you
>>140633698
i been doing art for quite a while and ill try to give you an advice (mostly from nature illustration i seen)
1. i think your construction is good, i mean the overall shape is very sharp and realistic, so you got that right
2.trees are with no doubt are hard to color, most of the trees iv seen have flat colors or really deep shading, and most of them don't have alot of branches. some artists like to stylize their trees like pic related to create some dramatic effect
3.you definatly should have focused on highlights before small detail, you do have some but its just not noticeable
4.its hard to see the big picture when only 1 asset is presented but its easier to shade trees that have leaves in them, dead trees are certainly good technical practice
>tfw you look at your day's work and know you're gonna make it
I'm pretty satisfied with today's work
What is the reason I will never play your game:
1) You have no game
2) You will never finish your game
3) Your game is bad
>>140636987
NODEV SHITTER ALERT
I'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction for some software. I need to make stick-figures in 3d, animate them and take key-frame screenshots. I am going to use these as my sprite sheet placeholders for now, but I am going to use them to paint my pixel art layers on later. I don't know if I should be using blender for this or what. The end result will be unreal flipbooks, if that makes a difference for what program I should use.
>>140638259
i recommend blender, in fact i also made a tutorial about this
>>140638259
There's no reason to use anything else. Blender is very good 3D software.

In a dungeon, except you start in a prison cell at the lowest level of the dungeon and you're trying to escape. The final floor or two is the castle, the final boss is the king that imprisoned you.
progress:
> made map objects cluster together sometimes
> bugs/performance
makes the maps better. before, map object placement was completely random.. which meant most of the map was the same.. with forced clustering you can have areas of forest/grass, or groups of zombies, which makes it play better and seems a bit more varied
i also made my mapgen spaghetti code even more spaghetti -__-
>>140640219
it'd be interesting to have a melee only outside of stuff like magic or bow and arrows rougelike game, not sure if there is something like that,
>>140640219
why is everone always trying to escape a dungeon, why not make game where you try to break into a dungeon?
like the game would be these really really long walk through a beautiful fantasy world and end with you breaking into a dungeon and locking yourself in your cell.

A dungeon. With a ring or an amulet deep inside it. You have to obtain that amulet, and then escape the dungeon. You can play as an Elf, a Dorf, a Human, or maybe like a half-orc or something. There will be goblins and slimes in the dungeon, so you'd better be prepared.

Are YOU cereus?
>>140641838
Why would someone want a different resolution for windowed and fullscreen?
>>140641867
thats because transformation re-process your image, every program do it differently
>>140641838
How do you even do multiple resolutions without screwing up the sprites? Do you make multiple sets of different sized sprites or does your game just squash/stretch them? Not looking forward to UI and menus, I only finished the main menu and that was a pain for me. Still need to do settings, handling multiple inputs for multiplayer, options, etc. Yuck.
I just started the game dev really and have done the basic tutorials of both game maker and unity.
my problem is i have no idea what game to make. I have a couple ideas but I'd like to pick one and stick with it for a while so I can learn and make something cool.
Anyway, tell me about your first game yesdevs. Did you have an idea that you really wanted to explore?
>>140641867
Use vector art if you don't want blurring.

Not him, but for me I like windowed games to be at 720p or (or lower for pixel-shit games) so I can click on stuff on my desktop. Full screen is for 1080p.
I'm not even sure who is memeing who anymore...
>>140641960
I don't know but I've seen games have different settings for both, so why not?
There's also a borderless window setting which just uses the resolution of your desktop.
>>140642168
>How do you even do multiple resolutions without screwing up the sprites?
Everything is rendered to a native resolution of 960x540, then the final image stretched to whatever resolution the user picks. It's lazy but I can't draw at a higher resolution right now, it'd take me forever.
>Not looking forward to UI and menus
Can't blame you, it's the thing I hate the most.

>>140642168
>How do you even do multiple resolutions without screwing up the sprites?
people told me there is a way to scale the output image without blurring everything
it's basically just zooming in shit like windows photo viewer
I forgot the name of the technique though
the next time you hear from me, I'll have finished my dwarf fortress-like
>>140643779
You must mean point/nearest neighbor filtering.
This gets rid of the blurriness but this only useful for games that use pixel art.
You also have to scale things at integer scales (2x,3x etc) or else the pixels get distorted.

Are you legitimately autistic? He didn't post the image, he posted a screenshot of someone's tumblr. I.e. you drag out a screen region and don't particularly care what you get beyond the thing you're pointing out -- In this case, the user it belongs to and the important part of the image. No one involved actually cared about the picture, let alone a handful of pixels on the bottom of it.

Anybody else get that "knack"? Where at the point of not quite an expert but just novice enough? You want to start making big things and do the suggested "Make games you want to play". But all the games you like are just SLIGHTLY out of your scope.

If anyone ends up playing their game too much instead of finishing it, than yes, they do deserve to fail. However, I highly doubt anyone would actually do that. Bottom line is if you can't even enjoy your own game, why the hell do you think anyone else will? I like making games, but I only stick to what I like.

my argument is that if you've succeeded in making a game you want to play you wont be able to finish it and if you finish your game you didn't enjoy it enough to not be able to finish it. meaning in either case you fail by not finishing or not accomplishing your goal for the game.

an author enjoys writing and maybe they enjoy writing a certain type of thing but do they enjoy reading the thing they wrote?
im gonna go with no since it makes no sense that they would enjoy reading through a thing that they already know thoroughly. authors do read their own works for marketing reasons at events, maybe go to one and ask them how they like reading their book over and over at these things.
>>140662438
Not him, but I can see your point. In fact, you enlightened me.
If you don't want to make a game you would want to play, then you want to make a game you wouldn't want to play. The best kind of game. I don't want to play hard games, which means I should make only extremely hard games. It is my destiny and now /agdg/ opened my eyes. I will go ahead and continue trying to make the hardest game I can. Thank you, guys.
Added the Giga Crab back to the game, and with it the ability to get stunned. The bubbles take longer to fall now and it actually made the boss harder so I might have to tone him down a little.

Right now it's a bit too static, as a criticism. Consider adding some particle effects, maybe some moving background elements, and some camera dynamics beyond the screenshake.
>>140662438
>if you've succeeded in making a game you want to play you wont be able to finish it and if you finish your game you didn't enjoy
I'll point back to my cocaine metaphor, everything in moderation. It is possible to enjoy something not excessively, though this argument seems highly opinion based.
>>140662993
>im gonna go with no since it makes no sense that they would enjoy reading through a thing that they already know thoroughly
As I stated before, this is very situational. I can point to a author who enjoys his work, than I can give you another who doesn't.
Can we just agree to disagree?
>>140663139
The crab special attack, the bubbles, are a bit too fast as I see it. Doesn't look like a player would have enough time to see AND react to it coming from above.
>>140663181
>>140663126
>>140662641
>>140662315
all making the same argument that twists my words into saying you should make things you hate or not make things you like
whether you like or don't like the THING was never a part of the argument, the argument is whether your goal is to make a thing you want to experience yourself vs making a thing because you want to make it.
>>140663139
Maybe make the crab's projectiles bigger. They don't seem very threatening, but the crab itself looks nice

alright so you're saying it should be feasible to succeed in the goal to "make a game you want to play"
assuming this is true, what then? is your gamedev career finished? you made the thing you wanted to play, you can now play it. if your response is going to be "make another game you want to play" i would like you to consider that the developer didnt make the game because they liked making games but because they wanted to play the game they were making, now that they have the game they originally wanted why would they ever go through the hardship of making a game ever again?
i think people who want to make games to play them should cut out the hardship and just go find games they want to play (theres enough games in existence that this shouldnt be impossible) and leave game creation to tho who want to make games because they want to make games.

Thanks! I don't really want to juice the game up too much though, I want to keep it simple so I can actually finish it. That being said this is just a test level and the background is a complete placeholder so the final version will definitely look nicer.
>>140663635
The idea behind the bubbles is that they fall where you're standing, so you should always be able to avoid them as long as you see the crab fire one off. I feel like if I made them slower in addition to that they wouldn't be a threat at all.

>>140664248
I agree with a lot of the points you are making, though I think we kinda got off on the wrong foot. If you are going to only make a game for yourself to enjoy than that can be completely pointless and a wasted of your own time just to fulfill your own narcissistic needs.
What I mean is be your own play tester obviously, and critique your work properly. Using yourself for what you like is a good way to determine if your game is enjoyable or not. Personally, I hate turn based JRPG type combats. I do believe I can make a "Good" turn based RPG, though it would be completely out of my element, and I would dread every bit of play testing, and wouldn't wont to continue it. If I did something I enjoy, let's say like Castlevania for arguments sake, I'd look forward to building something I would actually enjoy.
Sure I can just replay COTM, but my goal is to make similar experience for myself, and the players. Kind of like landscape painters, why bother painting something that has been done 1,000,000 time before?Answer: Because they enjoy it.
Also good debate Gogem, I'd love to continue but I have to go for now.

For installing newer versions, should I go the launcher route, or download the new version installer from inside the game, then run the installed and immediately exit Unity and let the installer install over the current version?
>>140665837
Found it, thanks
>>140666212
You should always backup your projects and keep the old version in case stuff doesn't work. Close everything. Download the new installer and create a new folder (e.g. "Unity534" instead of overwriting "Unity") when installing.
>>140667316
I mean installing new versions of my game, like download mygameInstaller.exe in the background while the game is playing, notify the user of an update, and launch the installer/quit the game

>>140665625
>What I mean is be your own play tester obviously
even in this sense i would say it's better not to make it a point that you have to be making games you enjoy. i think whether or not you enjoy something it's possible to evaluate whether it's good or not (good things by nature of being good will be enjoyable by more people) and you'll be better at making that evaluation the more objective you can be. if you enjoy playing the kind of game youre making i would say it's more likely to make you less objective and result in more evaluation mistakes.
and that's before even considering problems like making something as a niche within a niche resulting in making a game thats ONLY for you because it's niche to the point that you're the only niche it's appeasing.

Made some new sprites for when you're low health / near death. Not entirely satisfied with the cursor sprite... it's hard to draw hands.
Apart from these sprites, what's a good way to indicate that you're low health / near death / in danger? I was tempted to put in a 'bloody screen' effect as a joke, but maybe that'd be annoying if it was in there for the whole game.

Made some updates to my low-level socket library. Now I'm able to collect connection quality statistics like ping and packet loss (both C2S and S2C). Useful when simulating shitty connections and for playtesting.

The numbers are just the key binds, so you press 1 to use a hammer attack.
And thanks for the slime feedback, I am happier with how it looks now.
>>140674249
Thanks!
Some lil sprite changes and made attacks faster and slightly nicer looking.
Not a whole lot else to show, I'm still planning out this whole menu thing, I did make a couple more NPCs andattemptedsome interior tiles.
Should I work on implementing the menu first, or the magic bar/some test magic attack?
>>140674248
reminds me of escape velocity
i loved that game
>>140673903
was messing man. I had a lot of stuff to say but I realized you were new so it'll just come with time. I reccomend picking up a musical instrument if you haven't already and building up a repertoire of songs. Basically doing covers. When I was starting out I thought why should I do covers if I'm gonna write my own music? The truth is that covers are what makes you build your vocabulary, your technique, your "bag of tricks" so to speak. Nothing is born in a vacuum. If you ever need any help with music, hit me up on skype @ tehsmf. Would be glad to help a fellow musician.
>>140674627
Do you enjoy playing your game?

I don't even drink that much coffee anymore. I drink black tea instead. It's got plenty of caffeine if you make it semi-bitter and doesn't make my stomach hurt after drinking it.

So you're making a Castlevania, something very niche, when you can be making something more creative and artistic? Why do you people limit yourselves to pandering towards niches?

Kneeling\walking up and down slopes looks pretty janky. Not sure what you can do about it short of procedural animation though.

So funny how a loser like you just craves attention from an anonymous imagine board.

What is with future school shooters having a "Soft side" on the opposite side of their sharp edge?
Is C++ development way too complicated for a beginner? I know the language well but I've never dipped into graphics, 2d or 3d, at all. Should I stick with java?

>>140685615
>future school shooters
nigga im 30, i dropped out of school at 14 and i've proven myself a hardcore liberal faggot who wants all guns fed into a chipper. so let me ask you plainly, nigga what?
I can never tell if lurking here gives or kills my motivation.
Progress can do both. Something neat makes me want to do neat stuff too while amateurish shit makes me feel like I'm wasting my time.
Discussion and constructive feedback always boost motivation. Makes me want to learn more and try harder.
Too bad only 5% of posts are progress, discussion or feedback.
>>140685714
If you are familiar with the language you won't have a hard time getting things working. It's quick to get things going and once you've done that it's just adding features. That is, if you can stay focused with reading and researching in how others have done it.
>>140685714
They're about the same.
Harder to shoot yourself in the foot with Java, though, easier to debug, faster to dev with, etc.
>>140632059
11/10 for art style, but consider turning down the brightness on the snake a bit, it's hard to look at while moving quickly.

>>140686650
>seriously making the argument that the tool you cant even effectively use for the thing it was designed for is going to be more effective than a point and click death machine
While looking for reference for the character I need to design I found a photo of a girl that looks pretty much 100% perfect in every way. I could literally copy how she looks and make the character I was thinking of. Is it wrong to just take the exact looks of this person and make it into a character?
>>140686747
>>140686725
Nukes are obviously far more devastating and powerful than any firearm. Again, they're completely different and they have no comparison to firearms.
>>140686725
>making hunting completely pathetic
How is it any more pathetic than a bow and arrow exactly? Being more efficient and using more advanced tools is pathetic now?
>competitions a bunch of dickwagging with minimal skill
I understand if you don't like firearms but if you don't think shooting firearms accurately while not resting on a sandbag requires skill you are stupid.

the most efficient way to hunt would be to go to the supermarket and buy what you wanted. killing animals for sport is already pathetic an and certainly not "efficient" or "advanced" in any way.... at the very least you could do it in a way that has a high skill ceiling. sport fishers dont go out with a dragnet.

Hitting you anywhere on the body of which ~80% doesn't even count as fatal injury area by the way, would be a fucking bee sting compared to what I would most assuredly do to you with that Stanley hammer, especially the claw.
You have absolutely no fucking idea about the gigantic disparity in numbers of people who actually die from being shot versus people who walk it off.
You take away the guns and people start mauling each other with home depot arsenal again and that shit is brutal.
Not to mention you will never take away firearms from criminals. If they can't buy them, they will fucking make them.
Gun grabbers are only fucking over innocent people who lose their ability to defend themselves from people who will not be stopped by a fucking legislation.

not in the amounts comparable to US
>Prescription meds exist in most developed nations. This is nothing new or unique.
US has a category holy fuck popping pills epidemic in case you didn't know.
Those crazy people we talked about earlier also get swept under the rug by a tidal wave of pills and get no real treatment.
>Unless you're the 1% you're going to be upset about your socioeconomic position.

>Also, people don't shoot up a bunch of kindergartners because they're mad about being poor.
No, they shoot them up because the evil spirit inside the gun told them to do it, not because they are off the fucking rails.
>Gun control works. It's been proven and is in practice today in every sane country out there.
The least violent countries are the most satisfied, healthy countries, anon, not the countries without fucking guns.
Stop putting cart before the fucking horse.
can somebody post the link of 420chan's /agdg/ pls?
>>140691828
whatever i found it! Enjoy your shitposts! good bye
Alright guys I need some thoughts
Imagine a scenario where a person made music or art for a hobby developer. The artist didnt ask for any money upfront cause they're both hobbyists.
Later the developer releases the game and its a success. The dev makes a decent amount of money from it.
Is it a dick move by the artist to expect a bit of money from the dev as thanks for their work on the title that turned out to be a financial success?
>>140691821
fuck off sjw
>>140691828
The board?
Looks good, not very active though.
>>140692005
My two cents?
Sort of. If you willingly made free content for someone else's project, which you knew was going to be commercial, you really don't have a claim to it just because it turns successful.
Politely asking "eeyyy maybe you could kick some of that my way", sure no problem, but expectation just comes across as almost lecherous given the circumstances.
Hi there /agdg/.
Don't usually come in here, but here's something for you:
Mixamo (https://www.mixamo.com/) just got bought out by Adobe, so they're putting all their assets up for free, 3d character animations and a few characters, which can be imported into unity (via fuse iirc).
You need an adobe account (free) and here's a script to stick in your chrome dev console: http://pastebin.com/rUrDgm0J
Instructions for chrome users:
>Go to website
>Log in
>go to store
>click the first item in the animations category
>hit F12
>click console
>paste the aforementioned script into the console (at the bottom)
>leave it run
It takes a good while to do, and unfortunately it doesn't do characters, but there isn't many of them. Each animation used to cost $15 or so, so this saves you around $32k.
Godspeed /agdg/.

Would you be interested in dicking around with the builder demo? I was looking to get more eyes on it.
>>140692153
You cant really expect, but if the dev is a decent person he should understand the work the artist put in and reward the artist accordingly.
Sure, its not set in stone and no "deal" has been made, but its still human decency to share a bit of the success with people that made it possible.
>>140691821
>The least violent countries are the most satisfied, healthy countries, anon, not the countries without fucking guns.
the US of A has seen violent crime drop like a rock while mass shootings skyrocket.
meanwhile Australia just celebrated 20 years since the last mass shooting thanks entirely to a regulation overhaul.
and then theres shit like stand your ground laws which have been shown to slightly decrease crime ("it's working! it's working!") while simultaneously increasing the murder rate (and thats without counting the stand your ground free pass murders) and dramatically increasing gun accidents where dumbass white guys pull out their guns to shoot the black toddlers menacing at them and accidentally stand ground in their groin.
>>140691821
Coincidentally, the poorer nations don't have gun control (along with the U.S.) go figure.
>not in the amounts comparable to US
citation needed
>pills
again, the US isn't the only country with access to pills.
>evil spirit in a gun.....
Obviously somebody has to be off kilter to massacre a bunch of people in the first place. Coincidentally, a gun is a convenient, readily-accessible device designed explicitly for killing (how handy!) so it's naturally something somebody in the U.S. would be inclined to use if their goal is to kill people.
>least violent countries most satisfied/healthy....
Citation needed. Also, nobody is saying removing guns removes violence. One of the least violent countries out there has mandatory gun training for all citizens but strict control over the ammo for the guns.

what country is that?
>>140692483
a mass shooting is a shooting where two or more people get hurt
most of them are gang related
if I shoot a criminal who breaks into my house, miss, and fall down the stairs, a mass shooting has just occurred

>>140692493
>One of the least violent countries out there has mandatory gun training for all citizens
Laughably incorrect

>Switzerland
Oh, I just happen to live there, Basel, and no, it is violent here, Swiss people cannot handle their drink, so every damn night the police are arresting people in my street. Yes, they don't shoot each other, but yeah, the kick the crap outta one another, was pretty bad last night after the football as well.
>>140691616
Warms me poor frail heart. So would you or anyone else be interested in dicking with the builder?
http://infinit.io/_/Lkc945f
The top row numbers switch the module, 2 is struts. The thrusters are really the only thing functional right now, and they just have one line of code that applies force.
To load the default ship, press 'o'
To delete, its right click
To go into the simulation scene, press 'p'
To load the ship, press 'o', then 'i' to link everything together properly.
The arrow keys control the broken thrust code
'g' activates gravity
If you want to delete the default ship and make your own from scratch, you're going to need to go into 'Builder2.2_data' and delete the only file in the 'Vessels' folder and restart the game.
To save your ship once you've done this, press 'i'.
P-please no bully. GUI is soon(tm).
>>140692483
big part of the violence in the us is because of the multicultural experiment

I'm clearing things up since there isn't. If you're not a criminal you can buy as much ammo you fucking want

fucking hell agdg has reached a new level of retardation
>>140693486
I'm from the UK, south wales, which is not a wealthy part of the UK, also lived in Georgia (as in the former USSR) and yeah, the Swiss are weaksauce and can't handle their drink, so they go scrapping every damn night, which is a lot more frequent than has happened in the other places I've live in, the things you mention are true, but that's during the day.
I guess it's the northern Swiss moreso than elsewhere, Swiss from Ticino, Graubunden and around Montroux are fine though, a lot more chilled out.
>Pathfinding now takes from 10 to 40 ms less time

>>140693915
y-you forgot to press 'i' to link all the parts together. :C
No, but I am glad it works great on a terribad laptop, that means we won't have to do even more optimization. We've done quite a bit.

You sure it's "i"? I'm pressing "i" in both simulation and builder mode.
Other than that, builder works fine, very intuitive, not sure how to rotate parts in order to create retarded masterpieces.
>>140694131
Oh yeah, sorry. the numpad keys 4 6 8 2 5 rotate them.
You press 'L' after pressing 'o' to load the ship, and it should all stick together.
Got my keys mixed. 'i' is save in the builder.
>>140694251
It works.
It's beautiful.
I stuck something like 120 thrusters at random positions and it crashed the game. 2.1 ghz, mind.

>>140695413
Oh I wasn't referring to his game in particular. I for one love it. I was talking in general.
>>140622149
I do like how he asked about how the city is looking - not the animation - and only one person actually talks about the city.
>Bought Huion tablet after agdg and ic wouldn't stop praising them
>it's shit
Oh well, at least I only wasted 25$ on it.
>>140695754
Because the city has nothing to comment about. We all know the dev has no idea how to fix the animations so helping him with that was the primary concern.
>>140695623
Yer making me blush. Is there anything in particular you'd like to see, or are you just on for the ride?
>>140695813
Wut, did you not look at reviews before you got it?
Let that $25 dollars be a lesson to not take unsubstantiated opinions/advice from AGDG.
>>140695813
>listening to AGDG instead of yesdevs
>>140695623
Ah, referring to some of the uninspired projects that crop up occasionally?
I can understand it, but I don't think that anything other than friendly ribbing is going to go down well unless they're in the particular mindset of "I'm dead inside and am emotionally unaffected by everything".

He's making sprawling AAA games that need to shift large volume at a high price point to customers that expect quality and innovation. Obviously his processes aren't going to be as relevant for someone who copies puzzle games and releases them half finished on early access for 10 customers.

That made me stop and think. Because on one hand you have people who only have a couple ideas that they're proud of and the rest they don't bother to say, but on the other hand we have shitposter ideas making the ratios worse.
Sometimes I pull of some bullshit.
Its kind of annoying when you can procrastinate gamedev, playing a game you devved.
Its too easy to pass it off as playtesting.
>>140697995
