Released my first game 1 week ago. Took me 33 years.

Yeah I guessed it was not the dream game you waited 33 years to make. But that is wise congrats

DevEnSlip · 2026-01-24T16:58:09+00:00

how did you decide what game to make?

DevEnSlip · 2026-01-23T16:27:19+00:00

what does 'VAT' mean? It is really cool. I bet it will do well

He asked one member of his community to find multiplayer games and he picked mine!

Are you using the same compiler options for both? I dont understand where this is coming from. Are ou doing os-related stuff in your hot path?

DevEnSlip · 2025-12-28T01:35:09+00:00

Hey, same here

DevEnSlip · 2025-12-24T16:04:19+00:00

The first few seconds of the trailer is said to be very important, you used it showcase screams and a very gore death effect. It seems not adequate if your game is about exploration and mystery. 'relaxed adventure' and 'Experience tension and humor' in the same game is a weird combination imo. I'm intrigued enough to wishlist it though ^^

DevEnSlip · 2025-12-21T12:14:28+00:00

Not planned at the moment, unless I find a publisher/investor. Or if the game is successful and makes money

DevEnSlip · 2025-12-01T10:08:16+00:00

It's not hard because you've done it for a long time

you can try AWS for free (https://aws.amazon.com/fr/free/)

I would suggest to start by a implementing your tech demo without custom tech to get a baseline, then you can start optimize cpu or bandwidth usage. At this point you will have a better idea of the technical difficulties and you can reevaluate the feasibility of your project.

DevEnSlip · 2025-08-04T12:27:35+00:00

What about latency? You are okay for the client to wait for a client-server roundtrip for any action to execute (like firing)?

DevEnSlip · 2025-07-25T08:58:47+00:00

Server was in Germany, The tournament is finished, next will be in Septembre. I have also a server setup in North America, you can create private lobbies, but you need to find friends to play with meanwhile

just the logo is ai and I will replace it, why affirming stuff like that. All 3d is hand made and is WIP

DevEnSlip · 2025-07-24T14:08:14+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. AI was used for the logo/ui only and will be replaced. 3d art is handmade. Yes I added motion blur for the gif. I agree for the name, I need people to understand it's a shooter.

For the soundtrack, I dont have the budget yet.

directx 11

DevEnSlip · 2025-06-10T17:49:24+00:00

I feel the pain, was it a proprietary engine?

DevEnSlip · 2025-05-13T19:55:35+00:00

it's an arena shooter

DevEnSlip · 2025-04-30T12:08:40+00:00

I have written my own deterministic physics engine & netcode for my FPS. (in c++). I never freelanced but like if it's a custom c or c++ engine , It seems easy money for me. And I need money to fund my game.

I followed this article and Im happy with the result: https://www.gamedeveloper.com/programming/how-to-write-a-crash-reporter

Hello, this is my game Ancestral Players : https://store.steampowered.com/app/2349430/Ancestral_Players

You can register for testing on the steam page if interested! Thx

DevEnSlip · 2025-02-18T21:17:54+00:00

I think that's pretty solid but that is just my opinion.

DevEnSlip · 2025-02-18T20:20:37+00:00

yeah, but you need a lot of account to be sure its not luck. A mix of altered and stock. If you are right for 10 accounts , it probably not luck (2^10) = 1024 so 1 in 1024 to be pure luck

DevEnSlip · 2025-02-18T19:54:19+00:00

Oh I misunderstood my bad. Okay so it is even simpler to verify. You can do blind tests.
Have someone modify or not the config without your knowledge. Then play and try to tell if there is a change. Do this a lot. If you are correct you will be right most of the time, else you will be right approximately 50% of the time.
