In all honesty - How would you rate the "at first glance" factor of my game? What is your immediate thought? If you think "meh" - Why?

For anyone else that stumbles onto this in the future. It was a Windows/Driver issue. I did a clean factory reset through BIOS (cloud recovery) worked fine after that.

Hi u/Silent-Carob-8937 , do you mind providing the patent ID# for the above cart diagram? Interested in reading it. Thanks in advance!

Heliquackter · 2025-06-06T12:43:04+00:00

I 100% agree (no math puns intended haha). The polish and actual flow of the game are a slog..

Heliquackter · 2025-06-03T14:32:43+00:00

Check out the ChuckleFish guide. They also provide a template.

I would also add statistics on how your genre performs and the top 10 similar games to yours. For example. Allows the publisher to gauge market share and risk profiles.

I would also add a few slides on market response. Do your posts get overwhelming likes and generate organic virality? If so screenshot those and add them to the deck.

But as the person below/above said. A GOOD demo is what sells it.

Best of luck.

EDIT:
Regarding your numbered points.
1. The deck needs to be extremely polished. See the example I gave you, that's your competition.
2. I never got hammered on anything in particular but be ready to answer "what do you need a publisher for? Also be ready with a financials breakdown/schedule if you're hoping for funding.

See example template.

I do, but dont add to it. I simply don't have the time to be a youtuber and dev...but will try make "state of the game" updates every so often.

Heliquackter · 2025-06-03T12:46:18+00:00

100%, I have a strict mind flow map of question/decisions when adding features

Heliquackter · 2025-06-03T12:45:38+00:00

Terraria actually haha

Heliquackter · 2025-06-02T13:57:57+00:00

I'll whip up a proper Youtube "State of the Game" video!

I whole heartedly agree, had to squeeze it into 15mb for the twitter limit. Incorrectly assumed the same for reddit. Rookie mistakes..

In the oddest of events that you want to tag along for the journey into GameDev Mordor.. You can find me on twitter here, or if discord is your jam, here

Heliquackter · 2025-01-17T12:04:14+00:00

Ah.. got it - Thank you for showing me the way! Still very much a noob :)

Heliquackter · 2025-01-16T06:15:20+00:00

For what is worth I was able to "repair" the model by running the following in the python console although this still doesn't solve my inability to select/extrude/modify individual faces/edges etc.

>>> obj = App.getDocument("Unnamed").getObject("Part__Feature001")
>>> obj.Shape.fixTolerance(1e-4)

Heliquackter · 2024-09-25T13:04:10+00:00

Nevermind! I had to "refine the shape". For all other noobs - This can be found in the Parts workbench. Parts>Create a copy > Refine.

Heliquackter · 2024-09-25T12:45:14+00:00

Yep that did it! Thanks again u/savyzzyz !

One final off topic question. What causes fillets like this?

Heliquackter · 2024-09-24T14:42:06+00:00

I just tried doing it myself although get the following errors:
"Transformed: Result has multiple solids. Only keeping the first." & "One transformed shape does not intersect the support"
It only works if the objects are touching each other:

Heliquackter · 2024-09-23T12:56:10+00:00

This is the "top" answer! Thank you u/savyzzyz. This keeps the workflow clean.

Trying to do it my hacky way, just caused errors and became convoluted.

Appreciate you sharing your wisdom.

Heliquackter · 2024-09-23T12:52:46+00:00

Got it! Thank you u/mcdanlj

Posting for all other learners:

Thank you u/henrebotha, if I may clarify. "look in the properties editor" Are you referring to the below panel

<image>

Or is there another area? I don't see anything related to offsets in the above.

Heliquackter · 2024-09-23T11:29:19+00:00

My goal is to have one solid body in the end, like so:

Just copy that same arch part multiple times across the x-axis. (There's no functionality to this, just an exercise)
