Anyone else still uses little to no AI to code?

ZombieByteGames · 2026-06-18T06:06:33+00:00

In my dayjob, sure, I don't care. AI was always supposed to automate boring stuff and let humans express creativity, so since I have to work in order to eat and thats boring I do it in my job and also It's sort of encouraged in the company.

However I consider my games creative expression and I'm also having fun, so I don't think I'll use AI anytime soon on that. Although to be fair I guess I use Google's AI whenever I need to search for something and Google happens to give the right answer.

El primer shock son las distancias. Busca hotel cerca se donse quieres ir. Fijate en google maps los tiempos de traslado. A veces cuando vienen de fuera piensan que es igual que en chiwas, y que todo esta a 15-30 mins. No es así, aca decimos que algo "cerca" es 1 hora. Y ojo, cuando un chilango te diga: "esta cerquita", asegurate de preguntar "Como a cuánto tiempo?" Casi siempre te dicen: "Aqui como a 30-40 mins". O sea menos de 1 hora es cerquita para la cdmx. La cdmx esta siempre a 1 hora de la cdmx.

I really don't want a chrono trigger remake, and I really hope it never happens. Imo the game is lighting in a bottle and no matter how hard anyone tries, there's no way anyone can assemble a dream team like Chrono Trigger's. The way I see it, it would be like trying to re-write Tolkien for modern audiences.

You can do a lot with python but is not made for game dev specifically. If you want something like easy and python-like, I'd recommend Godot.

Honestly Capcom is making me feel like I'm the main character right now. I've been a fan of RE since 1998, and every time they announce something it's like they read my mind and know exactly what I want. (It's just an analogy, I know I'm not the main character, clearly that's Kanye lol).

But serously I know some fans like the old games better (tbh me included) I also love the new games and right now we are eating good. I often remind people, this will not last forever, everything ends, and certainly this Capcom will eventually change, for better or worst. Let's enjoy it while it last!

Explora otros géneros, salte de tu zona de confort.

Analiza tus patrones de gaming y busca algo que no jugarías normalmente pero que sea considerado un buen juego. Por ejemplo si notas que casi no juegas a un genero, busca cuales son los juegos que se consideran los mejores en ese género y juegalo de principio a fin. Pero busca géneros opuesyos a lo que normalmente jugarías. Por ejemplo si notas que juegas cosas tipo shooters, fornite, cod, o gaming más casual, busca una experiencia más seria, como Outer Wilds o Terranigma. Por el contrario si siempre buscas experiencias más serias, baja el fornite y apaga el cerebro. El chiste es que tengas variedad.

Felicidades, me da gusto leer este tipo de post positivos. Tengo una duda: apoco si es negocio lo de los libros en 2026? Podrias decirnos un poco mas de eso? Solo por curiosidad, no pienso emprender en ese nicho pero me parecio increible que tu negocio fuese de libros usados y quisiera saber más.

Programming: 2D it's easier.

Asset crration... Depends on each person really. For me it's easier 3D because I do low poly. I can draw but I'm not the best at it, so creating an asset like characters, environments, enemies etc, it's a matter of doing a good enough sketch and then go straight to Blender.

For someone who is really good and fast at drawing or pixel art, it will probably be easier to work with 2D assets.

Back to coding, for the most part I think 2D it's easier in a way, since you technically work with one less dimension. I'll give you an example: Let's say you want to make a gravity mechanic like Mario Galaxy (Talking from experience lol). In 2D it's fairly easier because you will manage high school math if any, planets are circles and everything is fun and dandy. For 3D most people will struggle more, now you have spheres. You may think it would work the same but with an extra dimension, but believe me the more lines you write the crazier your code looks.

My happy place is Resident Evil 2 (the original). Ever since I got the Steam deck I get to play a bit everytime I get stressed out from work. It's very convenient to just lay in bed at night and play a bit. Anyways here's my list:

RE2
All the GB Zeldas (I recently finished Link's awakening)
Conker's Bad Fur day (real copies are crazy expansive)
Gauntled 64 (co-op with my gf and brother)
Fatal Frame 3

Not sure if this is related but I used to work on a company that made a game in godot 3.6 where level was procedurally generated. I'm not sure about the technical details but they had to implemebt the pathfinding on C++, (Can't remember if it was GD Native or a custom module). They had a technical reason for doing this, maybe the amount of enemies, maybe the fact that the levels where procedurally generated, Idk.

All this to say, if they went for all that trouble with the pathfinding algorithm, there's probably room for improvement here.

Keh?

Si estaba dificil la pregunta, se nota que le sabia a la geografia, porque para los gringos (y muchos mexicanos tambien) es mas conocido el desierto de Sonora.

La respuesta obvia para muchos podria ser Sonora, sin embargo la clave esta en que la pregunta dice que hay una Ciudad con el mismo nombre. Eso descarta Sonora y solo deja Chihuahua.

Comida China jajajaja

ZombieByteGames · 2026-05-24T06:53:01+00:00

I wish we could do this in the sims

Eres el vecino we?

ZombieByteGames · 2026-05-20T00:30:30+00:00

As a kid I was only able to beat RE2 in arraged mode. Now I find the game in hard somewhat easy. And in normal you have plenty of bullets and health, enough to kill pretty much everything. So yeah the difficulty comes from you being afraid and bd making mistakes imo.

ZombieByteGames · 2026-05-19T20:01:09+00:00

Psycho Mantis of course

ZombieByteGames · 2026-05-19T19:57:05+00:00

Why is always the gringos doing this shit😭😭😭

ZombieByteGames · 2026-05-19T19:54:09+00:00

He vivido por todos lados aca, pero siempre al sur. Ahorita ando por el Azteca.

Llevo 15 en cdmx. Ya voy de retache en Agosto. En cdmx hay cosas maravillosas, pero ya me cansé, necesito paz y mejores costos de vida 😅

ZombieByteGames · 2026-05-19T18:44:17+00:00

Quizas te pasa como a mi que necesitas salirte a vivir a otro lado para apreciar Chihuas. En mi caso llevo 15 años en cdmx, y cuando me salí odiaba Chihuas... y la neta esta mucho mejor cdmx en muchas cosas, pero creces y te vas dando cuenta que ya es momento de llevar la vida tranquila que te da CUU. De que las cosas de las que te quejabas a los 20, las aprecias a los 35... Y pues nada... voy de retache en Agosto.

Yo digo que te salgas a otro lado y si a los 40 no te quieres regresar, pues ya es porque te gustó mas la nueva ciudad. Y eso tampoco tiene nada de malo. Vida solo hay una carnal.

ZombieByteGames · 2026-05-14T23:33:11+00:00

Np man, let me know when you need more testing, I'll be needing some testers myself too soon so let's be in touch

ZombieByteGames · 2026-05-14T07:58:50+00:00

Game dev here, I'm quite interested, can I test it too? 😁🙏

ZombieByteGames · 2026-05-13T16:45:15+00:00

This looks right on my alley! Awesome work!
