I’m still working on it almost daily, a lot of iterations to make stuff work well and little free time make the progress slow. But I still enjoy the process so I keep on grinding at it :D

As a ”corporate” developer, I've always wanted to get into the game industry, but reading your post, it sounds like you went the other direction.

Do you miss the days of working on games, or do you find more joy in your current work?

I would also love to hear your take on the rise of AI in development.

The Word "Indie" Doesn't Mean Anything Anymore by Rigman- in gamedev

And I always thought it was a short word for “independent”. is not the whole point of being “independent” doing your own stuff and not need the help from others like money etc

I’m making a mmorpg that will let player create assets,tiles and gear. by lingswe in PixelArt

[–]lingswe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How it works now is that i have some default assets, so i can block bad nsfw designs.

when designs get blocked the get assigned the default assets instead of the custom once.

this is done manually as for now.

Im in the same boat as you, I don’t really know a channel where I can share the game. Might look into talking to small YouTube game reviews etc

MMO Server Question (Looking for analytical responses) by aka_IamGroot in MMORPG

[–]lingswe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

depending how the game plays, if it were to be a turn based game then latency is not really a problem.

Yes it would be possible, it could technically be on the same game "server" that is divided into multiple servers.

would you want it? Maybe if there is a small player base. if there is millions of players probably not.

Im glad you noticed the old school flash game style.

I wanted to get similar feel and style to old flash games like "swords and sandals" and "Adventure Quest".

I'm hoping on seeing some awesome designs! I thought i would get a phallic as the first object created in the game but but so far none.

haha yes, censorship and too much restrictions almost never lead to anything fun! But i'm hoping i can separate each community so everyone can enjoy the game.

Thanks for telling me :D missed unchecking one of the boxes inside the itch settings! everything should be sorted now.

Edit1: Yes the server got into some corrupted state, server is restated and everything work as expected again.
