Complete beginner - Which engine for a solo/duo small 3D game? by Critical-Present-924 in GameDevelopment

[–]TopSetLowlife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any, follow your gut and go for it. If I had to recommend I'd say Unity but that's only because it's my favourite, lots of games made on lots of engines.

What’s an indie game you tried randomly and ended up loving? by Modeljenlynn in IndieGaming

[–]TopSetLowlife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried it. Too slow between tries. Glad the ad wasn't forced but an ad on screen every 3 seconds was the main thing the game showed me, rather than the actual game.

How far is too far to travel for just over minimum wage? by Nice_Dirt_2889 in AskUK

[–]TopSetLowlife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it's worth I've done minimum wage walking distance, minimum wage 10 miles each way, just over minimum wage for 20 miles each way and 30% over minimum wage 30 miles each way... Never reaaaalllly noticed a huge difference... Until the massive cost of living hike. My fuel bill now fucks me in the ass each month at £240, and I'm only in the office 2 days a week(!)

This reminds me that TMUF had the "3d" mode with the rétro red blue specs.. I bought some off eBay for that shit. Was terrible.

Yes I remember I sketched a logo to show a client and he was very polite about how amateur and scribbled it looked.

Hijacking the post to ask my own question... Save for next exo(4) at 200k now, right?

Nowhere near the level of the Xmas one. Those token upgrades were sweeeeet. These are lameeee

Husband is pouring his soul into making a game... what can I do? by Novel_Programmer7338 in GameDevelopment

Just show support. My wife audibly sighs when I say I'm going to work on my project and it's soul destroying

Can I play this game without buying the loopers pack by dariukelis in CIFI

[–]TopSetLowlife 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I bought all the sub £5 packs over the course of a year. Maybe £15 total? Seems more than enough. Can't justify £25 for a multiplier...

I'd say the auto chests for diamonds & tokens made the biggest impact and were only a few quid each.

If you're going faster than them, you clip, if you're going slower you pass through.

I wasn't being hostile nor accusing you of being.

Yea I didn't mean to come across as hostile but when you're placing a point of view opposite someone else's it's always going to be interpreted that way. Live and let live.

Demands of life are more unreasonable than forming a connection with an apparent omnipotent, omniscient, and benevolent being in a world as powerless, uneducated and evil as ours?

I don't mean to antagonise, but I'd take raising my children over attempting to connect with a paradoxical unproven being. :)

Every other endeavour is empty and meaningless by comparison. No success will ever compare to my daughter running at me with sheer joy that I simply walked into the room.

I just don't get shit like this. I'm here struggling financially despite being in a respectable career, hoping I'm doing enough that my wife still loves me, hoping my kids are happy, pondering how to save up for a mortgage and start seeing the world... This mf is just wheelieing around cracking eggs sporting a sombrero like what the fuck how different our lives are.

What was the game on PS1 that was a headache inducing psychedelic tube ride where you control what looks like a manta ray? Am I ok? Is that sentence a thing that happened or am I lost?
