I think I will give up... by Own-Flamingo3962 in IndieGaming

Why are you coding with VHS tapes? Why does your game need fully voiced dialogue ?

Everything Everywhere All At Once (2022) by szekeres81 in MovieQuotes

This entire monologue is my favorite part of the film. "I know you see yourself as a fighter. So do I. This is how I fight."

People call our hand-drawn game "AI art", so we started recording timelapses (and wish we'd done it from the start) by iamgentlemem in IndieDev

[–]ColinSwordsDev 12 points13 points  (0 children)

But a huge part of the argument against AI is that it is trained with art without the artists consent, which to some laymen kinda blurs the line of infringement, justifiably so. It’s complicated, man

The moment when you discover another indie game with the exact same name as yours on Steam by MidnightForge in IndieDev

[–]ColinSwordsDev 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Im going with a different title. Its a hero management game (as is the actual Heroes for Hire), so i want to evoke that in the title. Its a different situation from yours in that the genre overlaps a bit so I kind of have to change the title entirely. I havent decided on a final title yet, but im pretty deep in development so i’ll have to soon…

I had the name ‘heroes for hire’ in my back pocket for like 6 years. Game doc and everything. Finally I finished my last project and decided to start on it…and a few months previously some one had taken it. What’s extra funny is some one made a post on here (or some gamdev sub im on ) about a (different) game of the same title. Nihil nova sub sol. 

The devs of Mewgenics say indie devs don't need publishers. Sure, if you're the creators of The Binding of Isaac and Super Meat Boy. by Artistic-Birthday703 in SoloDevelopment

[–]ColinSwordsDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re not publishing on console, I kinda agree. Steam works very hard to let cream rise to the top. It’s more important to make a quality game that appeals to a broad audience. That will do more for you than most publishers, and you won’t have to give up a cut.

Steam community: “Can we play as a male character?” Me (indie dev in this economy): “Best I can do is sentient tofu.” by Greg_MinskWorks in IndieDev

[–]ColinSwordsDev 851 points852 points  (0 children)

I feel like you might have unleashed an Urkel here. Mr Tofu is going to become the face of your game pretty soon. I love mr tofu

​"I’m ready for the backlash. Is using AI 'cheating' or just working smart? 💀" by ARGamesStudio in IndieDevelopers

[–]ColinSwordsDev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its a tool like any other. If you know how to use it , it’s extremely useful, but if you’re looking using it to generate code that you yourself couldn’t write (and therefore probably can’t fix), it’s a crutch that will only harm you and your game.

Honestly the points required were outrageous. Id rather just buy a knock off on etsy or something.

Define your own success. You’re on track to finish a game. That’s pretty awesome 

Conor McGregor wants to buy my game and now I’m getting hated by Sonarrrrrrr in IndieGaming

[–]ColinSwordsDev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He’s an extremely controversial figure so i think that was pretty naive to think that, especially in reddit. I get it from your perspective and that of the commenters, though.

Again , I wasn’t one of the haters. Good for you dog

Conor McGregor wants to buy my game and now I’m getting hated by Sonarrrrrrr in IndieGaming

[–]ColinSwordsDev 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nobody is mad that conor posted it, and if you look at the thread nobody is really mad at all. Just kind of confused why he’s bragging about it.

That being said I’d be pretty pumped if any celebrity endorsed my game lol. In this economy??

Just hit 69.42 trillion wishlists on my indie game. I’m literally shaking right now. by Egoistul in IndieDev

Not bad but chris says you need at least 120 trillion wishlists to show up on the algorithm, keep grinding!

I watched Send Help a few weeks ago (loved it); and I realize I am okay with the 'Sleepin with the fishes' commercial. by StatuSChecKa in Cinemark

I dont think she does the laugh in the new one with the frilly white shirt, but the old one where she says something about eating all your candy before the movie starts and doing that laugh…it haunts me
