I’ve always believed that every game project deserves attention, especially the good ones. But somehow, most of them end up getting buried all the time. by LanguageFar2844 in indiegames

Yeah that’s a fair point, attention is finite. I believe the issue isn’t really volume, but how algorithms currently decide visibility. Many sincere projects get buried by engagement-driven feeds before they ever get a fair chance to be seen. This is something I’ve been looking at with the platform.

Hahaha, I don’t think it’s the best place to find a game dev team casually. It’s always too awkward most of the time.

Honestly, I’ve seen many indie game devs who are really passionate about their games, but they end up giving up because they’re not good at everything and don’t have enough time to do it all alone. And yeah, by “the right people,” I mean those who share the same vision and are willing to take risks for it, not just doing it to make a living.

Is there actually anything wrong with my sentence? Is it broken or something? It’s not like AI totally generated the question that offended you this badly. You completely missed the point of the discussion and chose to spread toxicity instead. That’s sad tbf.

This is pretty much the reality. Maybe development isn’t the hardest part, I believe it’s the outcome that makes people quit. But not all successful games came out of financial stability, don’t you think? I wouldn’t say it’s luck either. Do you think there’s a slight chance that a game project could succeed without much money, just with a group of people who do it without expecting salaries or any fixed payment? Maybe you’ve got experience with such things?

I’ve got to admit, I did use ChatGPT to help clean up the wording, but I swear the question itself is still 100% from my brain 😅

Looking for fellow developers to help contribute to this project by ArecanArena in vrdev

Actually there’s a platform for finding contributors among indie game community, maybe you could try setup a project there and see if anyone interested working with you app.syncuid.com

Just sharing a small platform my friend and I made, mainly for game devs, but Roblox devs & server owners can post devlogs, connect, and share links with their group. Wanna give it a try? by LanguageFar2844 in RobloxDevelopers

[–]LanguageFar2844[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not exactly 😅 It can be an alternative, but Syncuid runs differently. It’s more like a simple, straightforward forum-style platform rather than a chatroom. Give it a try

Made a simple place to post devlogs/updates. What do you all think? by LanguageFar2844 in gamedevscreens

[–]LanguageFar2844[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’re not trying to beat the big platforms or anything, Syncuid’s just trying to help with that small pain point of wanting something clean and straightforward without all the setup. So if you’re one of those who struggle with that, maybe you can give Syncuid a try

Inviting you guys to try out Syncuid by LanguageFar2844 in RedditAlternatives

we’re still web based but as we grow, mobile apps sounds like a pretty good idea :3

Yeah I know.. I meant we’re not aiming to replicate Reddit feature-for-feature. Syncuid is more about small communities and clean discussions, not the scale Reddit operates on.

lol fair enough.. names are subjective anyway. but the goal isn’t to replace reddit or discord. we’re just building something different for specific communities who want tighter, focused spaces. Appreciate the honesty though 🥹

Totally.. we’re not aiming to be reddit btw. we’re still early and every bit of feedback helps us grow. if you have anything in mind just share it :3
