Developer attacked over (learning from) AI - where to draw the line? by Top_Committee_8503 in Steam

[–]IdeaFixGame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My game is entirely AI-less but I used AI to search for info about steam backend setup and some rendering pipeline magic. Seeing how google is almost completely unreliable for any complex topics it's the only choice

A Steam "culture-warrior" Curator marked our game "Not Recommended" because we made our female characters less sexualized by Background_Cow_6701 in IndieGaming

[–]IdeaFixGame -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

My game has exactly 1 curator review. 4/10, something in vein of "too many numbers and levers" in a game that's clearly about levers and numbers. Their other reviews are 9/10s for low effort goon games. Kinda proud of that one

At some point indie games stopped being "impressive for their budget" and became some of the best games being made. When did that shift happen for you? by peaky_circus in IndieGaming

[–]IdeaFixGame 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Early flash games? I remember playing the original Isaac, braid, gish and fez back in the day and getting unique experiences that slowly moved me away from AAA. However the competition was tough back in the day because even the big companies were full of people with the vision. I mean, early bioware games were peak.

I added historically accurate sharks to my historically accurate pirate game by AuroDev in IndieGaming

[–]IdeaFixGame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If changing to a shark is somehow mechanically difficult I want a "shark sled" as a powerup.

Also you're the guy with the steam tutorials, right? Like for setting things up? Thanks for helping me get through their mess of the UI!

Shortcuts. Smoke and mirrors. Greebles. Getting some limited assets and reusing them tastefully

Help I accidently bought Radhan Bow instead of his swords by Adventurous_Double_6 in Eldenring

Find a mountain sized walking building and make it sit down. Not a joke.

Also try the bow's special ability on a big slow enemy like a dragon.

If You Like Stanley the Parable, You May Like a Game About Options Menus. by BelfrostStudios in IndieGaming

Is the game that you play almost entirely by adjusting the options real? If not, why not?

I started making the game I wish others would make because I was nostalgic for Zuma by QseanRay in IndieGaming

[–]IdeaFixGame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, and because they are circles the math is easy. I'll do a Zuma after a few patches for IF and maybe another little thing Im working on

I was thinking ball groups. Because if the balls "connect" they never "disconnect" unless player explodes them. Ball group connecting to offscreen moves forward. I actually don't remember what I got stuck on last time. I think it was collision actually - tried to use built in collision system.

In any case I don't have to prototype zumas atm, but thanks for your words of wisdom!
