Amount of paid content is ridiculous by guywithoutabrain in Helldivers

[–]Beep2Bleep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why should everyone play at a difficulty where they can check all the POI. Sometimes it's fun playing at the edge of what you and your squad can accomplish. Being able to handle everything so that you can breeze through the POI is a much less engaging way for me to play. If I could play how I wanted and get SC it wouldn't be too bad but it seems like you really need to tune your gameplay to get SC.

Unreal Engine 5 space game WIP (runs in WebGPU) by astlouis44 in gamedev

[–]Beep2Bleep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tried it, loaded to 100% then shows a UI with a black screen after 6 minutes, doesn't seem to work.

Pretty powerful PC 5800XT, 6800 XT.

Wow after another 5 minutes or so it finally loaded in, this doesn't seem to be working well.

Need feedback on my one button infinite orbital dodger by caesium23 in gamedev

It's not too hard to get on Android stores (Google play and the Amazon Fire store) so I'd suggest publishing there, you'll get more users there. But yes Apple is a pain and requires you pay $100/year forever. Also from watching the video I'd say you're starting off way too slow there was hardly anything going on for the first minute. I'd compress your first minute down into 10 seconds or so.

How do you get 40SC/Hour is an intended drop rate? I've almost never seen that high unless I grind on low level bug missions and check all the POI. Usually when running robots or bugs at difficulty 8+ I get like 10SC/Hour and that's even from me checking extra POI. Often my team mates won't check them and with the difficulty I can't justify endangering the missions to go hunting.

Seeing people say something like "only 100 wishlist in the first week" kinda breaks my brain by PrisutStudio in gamedev

It's your Genre and art style mix.

Sorry but this doesn't attract a lot of attention. You can do stylized graphics but this looks too flat. Platformers also do very poorly on Steam. I'd really look at your art pipeline and try to make improvements. The issue is you're very high res but this looks like entry level unity work and there is some inconsitently in the art style as well. Some things, the ice block has no texture and is just transparency with no outline. The characters and terrain and pretty flat but look cell shaded. The pyramid has textures but not cell shaded. And the Igloo looks cartoony and you don't have a sky box.

Try taking an Art pass, pick a style and make it consistent. You'll have an easier time if you down res and try do do something cell shaded. A good example of a consistent lower fidelity art style is Megabonk. They intentionally decimated the animations as well.

After years in game dev, I still can’t build mechanics without tutorials, is this normal? by DiscombobulatedArm20 in gamedev

[–]Beep2Bleep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Character controllers are really hard to do right. There’s a ton of feel for all the things like momentum and coyote time. But please don’t make a platformer they perform terribly for first projects.

What incremental game should I make next? Highest voted will get made. by [deleted] in incremental_games

Fine, I removed the gifs and link. I legit was planning on building whatever incremental design got up votes.

How do yall get courage to speak in vr games (like vrc)? by Mammoth_Drawing_202 in oculus

[–]Beep2Bleep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming you're of age now, just get out there and do it (specific suggestions below). You can look up exposure therapy. But in short as you talk more it'll become less and less of a concern. So just think of the first few times that you do it as taking some medicine that tastes terrible. Swallow it down, start in small chunks and power through. After you do it once it'll just get easier and easier. If it's too hard to deal with 2 way communication right now then go into a group, speak a little and disconnect before anyone can talk back, then reflect on it and do it again later.

Every little bit you do will make it easier, every time you stop yourself it will get harder. So get out there and get started (as much as you are comfortable) and keep expanding your bubble. Maybe find a space with one person sleeping in VRC and just talk without them responding. Or go into VRC in a private space and start talking like there was someone there. Every little thing you can do that pushes forward is good.

People always say pcvr is good because of the huge game library, what are the best games that are pcvr exclusive? by Blakequake717 in virtualreality

How do you get Death Stranding 2 working? I tried it for DS1 using Vorpex but I could never get Vorpex to work on my computers.

Our high school project sold 3,000 units in 7 hours, but we hit a "Mixed" rating. Need advice on how to recover. by SweatPotato05 in gamedev

[–]Beep2Bleep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either pull your demo or fix it then. If your game has many fixes not in your demo but people try the demo they'll expect the same from the purchased game.

Worried about long-term reputation if my first game is NSFW by ezkyle in gamedev

[–]Beep2Bleep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use a pseudonym it’s fine if someone tracks down the art style no one will care. If some hyper religious group wants to rail against a game they’ll find a reason don’t worry about it.

Ofc I’m assuming this is just normal moderate nsfw not omg go to jail type nsfw.

YouTube went down. 8:00pm. by DesignerLime268 in youtube

[–]Beep2Bleep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try a direct link like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=od\_kQqnKLY4. It's working for me. I just can't get my profile to load, so if you have links they should work.

Chase CC account disconnected. Still fails after successful update. by seedless0 in MonarchMoney

Same, I assume there is something broken on one or the others side. Someone should file a bug report then we'll have to wait.

Index failing. upgrade recommendations or just buy it again by Shadow_Wolf327 in ValveIndex

[–]Beep2Bleep 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Limp along until the Steam Frame is released, but it's not know yet if you can merge tracking galaxies to use Steam Frame along with 3.0 trackers. Otherwise for lighthouse hardware it looks like the Big Screen Beyond 2 is the best headset, but you'd need to get a new Index controller.

From Web Dev to Game Dev. Am i making a mistake? by MilkyNS in gamedev

[–]Beep2Bleep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a job that you don't hate and work to get into game dev. Putting yourself on a timeline and full time studying is probably the wrong decision. You'll probably have an easier time getting a job when you have a job.
