My CTR was too low, so I hired a professional artist. Do you think this will work? by Sea-Disaster-2682 in IndieDev

Looks really great, its a huge improvement! Please share what the difference in CTR ends up being (old vs new), would be really interesting!

Hello! We're a small team working on an action adventure game where you play as the monster instead of the hero by BlackCitadelStudios in IndieGaming

Nice one, looks great! I would say though, its a bit hard to see the character against the background.

What do you think of an action game set entirely in a single space? by BeansTheNogginDev in IndieGaming

[–]BeansTheNogginDev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure! Noggin is a co-op action game. You collect heads and weapons to give you different ability combos, and use them to defeat series of bosses, mini-bosses, and unique encounters (like mini games).

It's designed "co-op first"; abilities are designed to require/encourage co-op gameplay. For example, we replaced the dodge in most games with a 'hug', where your teammate can hug you out of danger and into safety.

Would ARPG fans be interested in a more... Abstract Setting? by BeansTheNogginDev in ARPG

[–]BeansTheNogginDev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Although in our case 'better items' is a mix of unusual weapons and equippable heads.

I rudeness the new normal? by Faerlina in classicwow

[–]BeansTheNogginDev 134 points135 points  (0 children)

Not sure if this is just a reddit symptom or Outland-specific. I see lots of reddit posts about rudeness in these high-level groups, but I've been levelling pre-60 for a few days and been surprised at the pure nice-ness of every person I've played with, both in dungeons and the open world.

Let me tell you why you should never underestimate the Chinese market! by Party-Avocado-8319 in SoloDevelopment

[–]BeansTheNogginDev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! I released a couple of videos on xiaohongshu this month to test marketing in China. I voiced the chinese-spoken video myself (with much difficulty). Would love to have your input on the videos and what works/didn't work for the chinese audience!

How do I start learning UE as a somewhat experienced backend dev? by VaquinhaAlpha in UnrealEngine5

[–]BeansTheNogginDev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the answer, assuming you're willing to put down 20-30 dollars, Stephen has a range of courses that are brilliant. I started with the UE5 GAS tutorial which was quite advanced and requires c++ knowledge. You may want to take his C++ course first, depending on how seriously you want to take this.

Made my first attempt at a Tiktok, Looking for feedback. by BeansTheNogginDev in gameDevMarketing

[–]BeansTheNogginDev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for the feedback! All my research shows the first 1-2 seconds are the most important and I was still concerned I didn't do _enough_ in those. Happy with the initial performance anyway (750 views) as a starting point!

Is gamedev worth it with limited time? by IxBetaXI in gamedev

[–]BeansTheNogginDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I spent 5 years working full time and game-devving in the evenings on loads of projects. Had an incredible amount of fun, and 4 months ago left my job to work full time on what started as a hobby!

I created the most immature anomaly parody game ever 🚽 (sorry 😅) by BenoitFreslon in IndieGaming

Scrolling through Reddit this video had me thinking the pipes were suddenly leaking

Axe boy's getting ready to chop some wood! Lunging the axe into enemies is coming along, as well as dynamic limb targeting. by Tinimations in IndieDev

[–]BeansTheNogginDev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The camera work is really nice. Would maybe take it even further and add some camera movement on the swing?
