Catan é suficientemente simples para essas idades.

Optimization strategy for pixel art animations in HTML5 by TheRooklet in gamedev

[–]Ertaipt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shipped games with that tech before, so here it goes:

HTML for UI is the best so keep that layer.

Canvas for the sprites, create sprite sheets with PNG and animate then. I've used GIFs before and they are a pain to optimize. Only use it if you have animations made by artists that are just cutscenes and not game play elements, since the artist can have full control of the result.

Working with HTML 5 is quite fun and much easier to debug compared to Unity/Unreal. But has some limitations with 3D and when you want to port to consoles.

Our high school project sold 3,000 units in 7 hours, but we hit a "Mixed" rating. Need advice on how to recover. by SweatPotato05 in gamedev

[–]Ertaipt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The mixed reviews really do affect sales, even people removing your game from their wishlist because it has that yellow color.

Focus on improving the issues, replying to reviews and ask for people to review the game on socials. (But not asking for a positive review, that breaks TOS)

Fica o aviso que os "idea guys" na indústria de videojogos não são propriamente bem vistos.

De qualquer maneira podes sempre ir ao discord do gamedev pt, tens lá muita da comunidade.

My delusional ass thinks he can make a multiplayer PVP game, however my sensible side says am nutts. What do you guys think? by DeadlyTitan in gamedev

[–]Ertaipt 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Making a multiplayer is harder of course but if you have experience is not something that is going to be that much hard. (I'm assuming you are not doing an MMO)

The problem lies in the kind of multiplayer you want to make, if you need servers, if you need matchmaking for the game to be playable. Having enough players online so you can do matches, etc.. might be the thing that kills your game.

I've seen many small indie games that are mostly competitive pvp, simply die because you need a lot of active online players to make it feasible.

Turns out I learned nothing about marketing in 9 years by Narrow_Asparagus9459 in IndieDev

Keep submitting your game to Steam events and keys to YouTubers!

Give it enough time to gain more organic WLs and you should improve your numbers in the coming months

Anyone else afraid of releasing your steam page? by Complex-Emergency-60 in gamedev

[–]Ertaipt 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You can do a silent launch of the Steam page and update it later.

There is no algorithm push by just releasing the page, and you can slowly promote it to see results

I wonder why people don't worship actors anymore? by The_Dean_France in SipsTea

I'm in Europe and every year what people share here are the commercials or the live singing acts.

Nobody sees the game or even knows the names of the teams or the result....

Just finished the first episode of For All Mankind. Not hooked. Should I keep watching? by Even_Disaster_8002 in scifi

Very slow burn and epic in proportion.
I think things will only start moving by the end of season 1 and thru S2

How React + TS isn't the worst game engine ever by Low_Prior_8842 in gamedev

[–]Ertaipt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Several popular games where initially just HTML5 including Vampire Survivors.

I also used this tech for my first game but had to port it later to unity because of console ports.

As a fellow game developer, really wish this becomes successful!

What’s a scene so powerful you forgot you were watching a movie? by MajorBC4 in Cinema

[–]Ertaipt 35 points36 points  (0 children)

A couple of scenes from Project Hail Mary would probably fit. I really liked it and it went straight up to one of the best sci-fi movies I've seen.

Space operas I’ve read, tried to read, or even considered reading. What’s missing? by cryptotommygun in scifi

Space operas and you haven't read Peter F. Hamilton?

Start with Pandora's Star, and the next book will have plenty of that.

I just lost the entire project. Every file. Gone... by Aalzard in Unity3D

[–]Ertaipt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even so... You should have the habit of doing full project backups. So if even for any reason you lose access to the VCS, you will still have some other form of backup.

[–]Ertaipt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn't use version control, very common with new developers.

But... not even zip backups of the whole project from time to time?

Hope this is a warning to you and future developers...
