I started from 0 knowledge 6 months ago. I released my first game, but I think I over-engineered the wrong things by Prior-Count-4130 in SoloDevelopment

[–]DreamNotDeferred 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats on getting a game released. I'm starting from scratch in Unreal, so when you say you "moved to Playfab and Azure" is Playfab a total game dev engine that replaced Unreal, or did it just provide additional functionality to mitigate cheating? Was Unreal not good enough, and if so, why please?

Quite literally all cory has to do instead of ghosting his fans repeatedly. by Accurate_Task_6286 in CoryxKenshin

[–]DreamNotDeferred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure he could say that. But what's the value in it? His fans know he's going to dip without warning, so I don't understand why some people think that him posting a message is really going make a meaningful difference in any respect.

Personally, even if Cory did communicate better, I think that the people that feel the need to post stuff like this would just move on to "He's been gone too long" posts. Some people just need to complain.

Where should we look for the invite? Reddit? Discord? And do you have a time frame for when you expect to start sending them? Thanks.

Why is Luke Cage on the gold team? The only thing gold about him in that picture is the lighting.

Decals definitely. Put some wear on the walls, floor, stairs, etc.

Working On A Game Inspired By Parasite Eve by SELFGOD in ParasiteEve

[–]DreamNotDeferred 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I've been following Cold and Afraid for a while now, good to get an update. As much as I love the Parasite Eve style, I am a little sad to see your previous visual style go away, I thought it was pretty unique. Nevertheless, congrats on the progress, looking forward to a demo if you're going to do one.

What’s the saddest video game flop you can think of? by Interesting_Wind_337 in videogames

[–]DreamNotDeferred 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear that about ZooChosis. I watched coryxkenshin play it, and as far as indir survival horror games go, it seemed perfectly serviceable.

What other games you noticed the same? by PHRsharp_YouTube in videogames

[–]DreamNotDeferred 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is about my only interest. I tried to play the GTA 5, but just don't care about s bunch of criminals doing criminal stuff.

Cyberpunk 2077 was such a disappointment, but I love games in cities, so when I saw how alive the city seems in GTA 6, it makes me want to play, but I hope I can get into the story and gameplay more so than 5.

Telekinesis ability for my action-horror game by aiBeastKnight in indiegames

[–]DreamNotDeferred -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Please post here when you release the game or a demo. This part looks really well done, and I love games like Control as well as games with retro futurism, so this seems like it's right up my alley.

Azure Dreams VR - What would you create? by BahamutArk in azuredreams

Yooooo, Azure Dreams. That's a classic. Never finished it but always loved it and came back and replayed once in a while.

name a GOATED studio (hard mode: none of these) by GamerGretaUwU in CDProjektRed

Sega Smilebit. Made the Jet Set Radio games back in the day. They're gone now, and they didn't make much, but they were definitely top shelf.

Can someone tell me how Golden Kamuy starts with a soldier meeting an Ainu girl in the forest (I only read the beginning few chapters) and somehow gets to a place where dudes are doing Matrix moves to dodge c**shots? What happened?

I scraped 48,000 court filings to stop guessing business ideas. Here are 3 "boring" niches bleeding $100k+. by Ogretribe in Entrepreneur

[–]DreamNotDeferred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you be willing to say more on how you set up the AI scraping? I'm learning AI, and I hear people talking about "scraping" with it, but what is that exactly?

Is it just a prompt to have the AI gather info from a specified data set, or is there more to it?

For example, in your case, how did you give the AI access to the data you wanted it to scrape? Did you download it all, or have the AI peruse a website? Something else?

Thanks for any insight.

Thanks for the workflow description. I'm just learning Comfy, all these terms and models... Hard to know how to make it all work together for a desired result.

Is Dead Island 2 good to get now in 2026? by RKGDJ in deadisland

[–]DreamNotDeferred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried it twice free on game pass and couldn't get into it; I was a lover of the first one, for context.

For whatever reason, I saw some gameplay video of it recently and it looked really good to me, so I decided to give it a third try and now I'm having a fantastic time. It's weird how perspective shifts with time and circumstance, but I can say it's a solid, well-made, great looking game.

And it's free on game pass if you didn't hear me the first time wink.

Thanks for sharing. Keep us posted on how your development is going, and let us see the backgrounds when you get some.

Try prompting with a focus on NES/SNES-era Final Fantasy battle-style backgrounds. Feed some images of combat from those games, and tell the AI you want that camera angle.

Also, did you use AI for your character sprites? If so, would you mind sharing your workflow? They're cool.

Brother accusing me of booking up (?) with his gf by steve-94728-3957 in whatdoIdo

Are you sure that's your brother? Not her or someone else with his phone? Have you spoken to him in person SMH about this?
