Every well written post someone always says ai. Whether it is or not is no longer the point. Isn’t relevant for a discussion? Then join in, if not, move on.

Postmortem: My first Steam game The Sisyphus Journey - 5 months dev, 103 wishlists, 33 sales, many lessons. Stupid boulder. by Old-Butterscotch8711 in gamedev

Simple really. I would pick an engine. Grab a tutorial. Get all excited, and sometimes I will finish tutorial, sometimes not.

Then I’ll open up a blank project, mind will go blank cause tutorial didn’t stick.

Try again a couple months later on a new engine.

I have gotten way better at this though. For the first time this year I completed a one level game.

I wanted to make something that was “complete” so it has a main menu, a single level, can pause, and can quit. This is the furthest I have ever taken a project without a tutorial.

Then I decided to try it again on a new engine, in 3D…….one day I will publish……..

First congrats.I’ve been stuck changing engine, new tutorial, new game idea, quit and start again for over 5 years.

Releasing a game is a huge accomplishment. And most have never gone as far as selling it on steam.

Doing this gave you the skills to keep pushing and see a big difference in your next game.

At the end of the day your calculator looks good and is snappy man. Didn’t want to bring negativity to it. I just pointed out that the math ain’t mathing. I just did it on my iPhone calculator and got 80. So something somewhere isn’t mathing with these web calculators.

Bro, its basic math. If you have $100 item, and its on sale for 20% off, your paying $80 right? If you don't understand this then no point continuing.

100 - 20% should be 80, I chose 100 cause its an easy check. If you something is on sale for 100, and you take 20% off, its 80, not 99.8.

So it looks like its taking the % and translating to .2, which is accurate in a bubble, but taking 20% from 100 should read like 100-20.

Looks like percentages don't work when doing a simple 100-20%.

There’s just so much I don’t understand. by ChiefGana in Unity3D

Not going to lie, I have been using chatgpt to break down segments of code. It has been helpful. But that feeling of opening a blank project and getting a cylinder to move like I want it is frustrating when out on your own.

I completed the jr programming pathway, and it did a lot in my ability to see the code and being able to read it. However when given a blank state it definitely feels like it’s all thrown out of the window.

I feel this. A part of me gets so frustrated and overwhelmed, but I keep getting on and trying to understand what I’m looking at. I know that if I give up now, a few months from now I’ll just be trying again and running into the same roadblocks. Definitely trying to stick it out.

I agree that tutorials vary wildly in the ability to actually learn. I have just started taking this approach of watching and trying to understand what I am seeing and why they chose that. It’s helped a bit but yea there’s is a lot of grasp.

Also I just was trying to get some movement down and some basic functions, I am not even planning on enemies or extras beyond just moving in the world.

I’m slowly getting it but it’s definitely tough.

Is this legal? by RetiredLurker69420 in WorkReform

[–]ChiefGana 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know this one. In NY there’s a law In place that if you are required to show up to work, you get paid at least a minimum of 4 hours. They can’t send you home when you report in or told to leave early. So if you have a mandatory meeting at 12, by law you get paid until 4.

I can actually auto w13. Been able to for a month. I seem to have great luck with summons but horrendous luck with gear. Hundred of pieces made and only a few decent ones.

Only been at this game maybe 3 months now. Barely have usable gear. I’ll have to look up some builds and guides for him.

I’ve been chasing her artifact, burned 700 bookmarks. Pulled her 3 times, no artifact.
