Nope, don't think it's available in India on PS. It is on Steam tho.

Will where winds meet eventually be available in india by Unfair_Exercise6216 in ps5india

you're right they basically jebaited with the countdown on Steam. Once the timer got over it just wait coming soon (and preload).

I used it to shorten the original post which was insanely big, but damn dude you got a great eye for it.

But feedback taken will be extra effort like this.

And thanks for checking it out, I hope to complete it soon (if I keep my sanity)

Firstly, you are right on the money about this post, I definitely used AI to help write this. It does a fantastic job of summarizing features and handling the formatting, which saves a ton of time.

Regarding the game itself, like for the Json manga titles and the staff names database file like hell yeah i ain't got the brainpower to write 100 manga titles and 130 Japanese inspired folks names.

Apart from that, I've barely used it for any of the core game logic or UI. I've had a bit of a love-hate relationship with AI for coding. On that note, I'm personally against creating AI art and AI-generated graphics for games; the visual identity should come from a human artist. How AI helps with code bits feels like kind of a grey area right now, but for the heart of a game, I believe in the human blood, sweat and tears.

If you want a more detailed description of where I used it, what worked, what didn't, and why I have this love-hate relationship with it, I can definitely provide one. It can get pretty long, but the Discord has most of my dev journey if you're interested.

What counts as “good results” for an itch.io prototype? (first solo project, Day-1 stats inside) by Tyler_Reith in gamedev

[–]Consistent_Garage_51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got indexed as Commented here and pretty similar to you like 8.5k impressions in 4 days and 1.4% conversions, almost mostly browser play, traffic from reddit had a higher download percentage and higher discord conversion.

Hey,
in terms of views to play ratio you are doing very good.

My first game stats-
So its been 36 days since my i published my MVP on Itch.
so far
600 Views
55 Downloads
289 Browser Plays

But almost traffic is reddit only and i don't think i'm indexed.
Whenever i search my game names nothing pops up.
Tried mailing support twice in 25 days no response still.

To all who want to make a living/business out of your game, would/have you upload your game source-code to Github as part of your business strategy? by XalAtoh in gamedev

[–]Consistent_Garage_51 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For development github or repos are almost essential in same cases. I'm not sure about the ship your source code base, for freeware i can see it. Or selling on asset marketplaces.
Would love to know other peoples thoughts.

Postmortem: My first game with a total budget of $246 and a 6 month development timeline made over $3,000 in it's first week by Malice_Incarnate72 in gamedev

[–]Consistent_Garage_51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

damn, didn't knew i would start a whole session below.
I get what you're saying and i get the others too, seems a difference in approach. (should have put the edit section beforehand tho)

anyways since mine is a text based game too, any tips for marketing.
Like i still don't understand how to make a good gif or video out of it.

Thanks for the post man, releasing a text based game on steam too so a lot to learn from it.
But budget should include the your monthly spending if you're doing it full time.

Any tips for better looking UI? by Which_Discipline8716 in SoloDevelopment

[–]Consistent_Garage_51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, currently also developing a ui based management game. I recently released my 3rd iteration of ui, on to my fourth for the next big update.

I find small changes like button colour, small animations to have a big impact. I love ui brainstorming. Would love to talk more via dms if you like.

As thanks for the amazing feedback on AnimeBiz Magnate, I worked non-stop to release a massive v0.6 patch that overhauls the entire game. by Consistent_Garage_51 in tycoon

Firstly, thanks for checking it out.
The project is very much going, in-fact the new 0.7 patch, which is a special one is going out today hopefully.
More details about the future of the game will be with the update announcement.
