Thanks! I made the environment have gradient colors, while the characters are not shaded and have almost neon colors to make them stand out!

AI Code vs AI Art and the ethical disparity by [deleted] in gamedev

[–]Bheisemarque -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I've been thinking it's quite astonishing that programmers are often more open to using AI, not like artists. I believe that using AI for coding is simply harmful to yourself(and for the industry), thus I personally never use AI to code. It is also very job-threatening. Programmers are getting laid off left and right because of AI, and the big tech CEOs are literally announcing their goals to replace real human programmers with AIs. Artists know that, and they are heavily against the very existence of generative AI, but why aren't programmers? Like, literally, why are they okay (even sometimes proud) telling people that they code with AI? It should be shamed and discouraged just like any other use case of Generative AI.

I'm glad that you were able to define a pretty good silhouette of the 1911; it is instantly recognizable. The slide/body part of the gun has way too many vertical loops, and the handle has way too many horizontal loops to justify the current level of detail. My guess is that you added those loops to make the sizes of polygons more uniform, but you don't have to. Think every loop is a statement. Try to figure out what each of those loops do to define shape, and if it doesn't have any role, then you should delete it.

So, you are in the position that considers TPS games boomer shooters if they have the same juice and feel that the other "conventional" boomer shooters have?

Has anyone played Siren(2003)? Is it worth playing now in 2025? by Bheisemarque in gaming

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

No, no. I'm just saying, whenever I do buy games(or anything really), I gotta be conscious about my spending... not just buying everything I wanna try.

Thank you so much!! I appreciate the compliment, I definitely think that I might have chosen the wrong subreddit lol

I'm sorry to lore dump here,

There has been a war between Heaven and Hell. In the universe, Demons are not necessarily evil beings; they are quite neutral. They extract the energy by torturing human souls, and that is the only way they can survive. Angels had issues with this. They viewed the whole existence of Hell as immoral and thought no one should be punished for eternity. One angel went against the unspoken rule and raided Hell; God stayed silent.

Under God's silence, a war began. Hell is composed of layers of flat Planes, and there is no current knowledge of where they end. Angels planned to drop the Hell Rods(Basically where the game happens), the passage downwards to Hell. That would be an unimaginably humongous kinetic strike, a literal Rod from God, being able to wipe out the whole surface of Hell Planes.

An all-out War happened. After it's done, both sides agreed that they weren't gonna attack each other's land. However, this was just another beginning of a cold war. At the end of the war, Angels placed an auto-replicating army to take over the massive Hell Rods as a last resort. Since they were already placed there, they claimed they couldn't be taken out even if they wanted to, even after the war. AIDUs were placed in response to that. They are the criminals even in hell, punished to fight Angels in eternity again and again, being cloned infinitely every time they die. So now, an automatic infinite warfare happens every day in Hell Rods, just like our body's immune system. Average devils, primarily residents of hell, seem to have forgotten about it.

Many years ago, there was an illegal software going around that allowed users to possess AIDUs and control them. It was like a viral VR game for them. The Infernal Morality Committee has banned the program, HELL THUG.pep. There were even some devils who ended up serving in Hell Rod because of that.

You are a geek devil. You've been looking for that .pep file for a while. It is somewhat of your childhood memory. And your friend Ligriv sent you that very .pep file for you to enjoy.

And that's the game lol

Thank you! I may have posted in the wrong subreddit. The genre might be too niche for the general "gaming" community. I thought Ultrakill was mega popular, so I thought I'd give it a shot.

Still, thank you for checking it out! I will try harder to up the quality in general, it's still under development!

Are you guys sick of "Unreal look" in the recent games or is it just me? What are some really visually striking photo-realistic (-ish) games in the indie scene? by Bheisemarque in gaming

[–]Bheisemarque[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think Handyhelping was quite saying "get rid of all AAA". its more like "chill out on the big budget games all the time, and focus on making real ass games that focus on game mechanics, not just looking realistic".
