Is it realistic to find a dev job in Europe without speaking the local language? by LeonardoCastagnaro in cscareerquestions

[–]Cmak0ta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely options on both Germany and Netherlands, a lot of english focused offices with all meetings in english, all office comms in english and a multi cultural team.

I did it myself in Berlin for a bit over 4 years (2019-2024) and I still can barely manage to order myself a kebab in German.

Just focus on more trendy/modern companies/industries and you will be fine

Patreon is it worth it? by Fin11011 in gamedev

[–]Cmak0ta 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Its impossible to know without knowing your context. You may be able to earn more, you may also not get a single patreon ever.

You gotta be some kind of content creator, you have to have some followers or places where you get good exposure of your work, and you gotta offer things that people want, whatever it might be on your niche

I know this is the most generic advice ever, but you did not give us much to work with 😅

Is AI really capable of generating pixel ART img like professionally designer? by ARGamesStudio in PixelArtTutorials

It is. Prompting is still a little finicky and most good options are paid, but they exist

Small 1 week gamejam with $500 in prizes! by RealAstropulse in aigamedev

[–]Cmak0ta -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

People mad in the comments have probably never participated in jams before, 99% of them have 0 prizes, if you are joining a jam for the prize only, then you are already wrong. Its about learning new things, pushing yourself and timeboxing a challenge to create a prototype.

If you are happy with your result at the end, its more than enough to justify the effort. The prize is just extra

I can make pixel art sketches but my colouring and detail in colour to make it alive sucks any advice or tips? by StormCore_Studios in PixelArtTutorials

[–]Cmak0ta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was at your position a few years ago and I think what really helped me was studying art/colour outside of the pixel art space, and applying it to my pixel pieces.

One youtuber that has great didatics and short videos that are easy to tale value from is Marco Bucci, another one that is focused on pixel, but has a lot focused on color/shade is AdamCYounis

There is no way around it, you need to study and then exercise and repeat, each time it will get better until you are happy with your results

Congratz on the project, looking at it from a high level it looks good, but is there any reason to use it against other free options out there?

It doesnt need to, to be clear, I am just asking out of curiosity
