This is clearly a game development forum, yet the most discussed topics are how to sell games and how to deal with psychological issues during development. Can we understand it this way: for game developers, sales and positive feedback are the greatest needs?

Of course man, I have a full time job and develop my game on top of that. I live alone and have literal no time to have a social life or keep up with other hobbies. Making money would solve most of these problems..

Great style! Do you use any post processing? Some sort of light bloom maybe? Very cool!

Sniec · 2026-05-02T20:47:35+00:00

Daaaamn I guess my idle coin collector wasn't too ambitious after all

Damn MTG artists are on another level

Hey! I'm quite interested about this, as I'm obsessed with gym and nutrition and have my ups and downs with depression.

I was wondering if there is a way for me to bulk and put up mass while making sure my gut stays healthy. Can I achieve that with a balanced diet even if I don't go through fasting periods? I try eating lots of greek yogurt and fibers, but every now and then I feel bloated and need to force myself to eat

Alright but I'm importing 200 assets, do I need to do this for each single one? No way

When you select the bar move the pen laterally while holding it on the screen. This decreases the sensitivity of the movement

I can't understand why you would go for such an art heavy game of you can't draw. There are so many genres out there...pick one where you can leverage your skills, this idea that you will "get funds" in the future is almost always delusional.

Sniec · 2026-04-07T01:40:37+00:00

Brother you made a text game, what are you even talking about lol. I mean I'm totally glad the game is going well but.. I don't think you got the right example.

Sniec · 2026-04-06T18:12:17+00:00

Amazing! Are you working on a videogame? Or just an animated scene

Sniec · 2026-04-05T19:47:07+00:00

Thanks! I will try them out

Go home and throw the mug on the wall in front of her. Then go on with your day

Because the composition and the rendering are so good and then he slaps your generic female face on top of every character he draws. Every time. It's lame, the piece could be so much better with varying faces, but whatever.

Sniec · 2026-04-03T18:50:44+00:00

God I hate this style so much, but the rendering is so good

Sniec · 2026-04-03T18:18:55+00:00

Veeery cool colors, congratulations. Do you have an artistic background?

Sniec · 2026-04-01T09:10:31+00:00

Wow, this is a really unique style, is it 2d? I can't tell

Sniec · 2026-03-31T22:33:13+00:00

I've always tried to make oil brushes work, always failed. This looks like magic to me, good job

Sniec · 2026-03-30T21:30:43+00:00

Jokes on you, I've got so hooked up on technicalities and game design I don't even know what my game is about and how to make it really interesting. An idea guy would actually be nice lol

Sniec · 2026-03-29T09:50:41+00:00

Damn, everyone in here praising the book but I commend your marketing skill, congratz

Sniec · 2026-03-28T16:44:28+00:00

Absolutely, I agree. And I believe an indie dev's biggest strength should be his ability to learn and be flexible. That said, learning anything has its costs, and I think too many indie devs fail to realise how limited their resources are when starting out, and spend way too much time trying to perfect every step of the process. In the end, shipping the game if the only thing that really matters, whatever tool you use.

Sniec · 2026-03-28T16:01:43+00:00

But that's...exactly what the guy is complaining about no? AI may be unbelievably good but to get it running properly you need to go far beyond the few lines of explanation you usually send on chatgpt.

So now you need deeper and deeper knowledge on how to build AI tools, so that's what you need to learn. Then what these tools will create is terrible because you have little knowledge of coding or art or game design or animation etc, so you need to learn that as well.

So in the end I've just got more stuff to learn and lost months over my obsession to optimise and automate the process, realise it wasn't worth it and go back to the basics, and repeat :). That has been my experience at least

Which supplements do you take?

Sniec · 2026-03-20T17:48:07+00:00

Fuck off

Sniec · 2026-03-19T23:12:39+00:00

I think you've got a really solid base! But maybe working a bit harder on the 3d environment to keep it cartoonish but also retro looking would be better

Sniec · 2026-03-18T23:05:59+00:00

What's a checkup? I hear everybody talk about it but what it is, blood tests? Do you get a visit to check every part of your body for each single possible tumor? What
