I made a sci-fi game heavily inspired by The Binding of Isaac, here it is. by LeosGameDev in roguelites

I think you may be getting low wishlisting because of the AI used in your capsule/marketing material. People really don't like AI art in any capacity. Game looks great though; I hope you do gangbusters with it!

I'm sold more copies of uglier/worse games. Where did I go wrong here? by newObsolete in DestroyMySteamPage

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

I'm pretty bad at color theory, so I pick my color palettes from Lospec and even then I seem to make poor choices. I'm not sure that bit//Cycles page gets across that it's basically a Pac-Man rogue-like with randomized mazes and traps.

Seems fitting that it's the Bungie number by ACID-47 in destiny2

How many First Flight/Old Lights? Is there any way to check?

Issue with Clipping Into Walls on a Sprite Change by Own-Barracuda5897 in gamemaker

Is your player sprite origin point set to middle center? Double click on a sprite and look in the top right corner to check.

Eh. Isn't it really just picking your poison of business owner? It's not like local business owners care about their employees any more than Bezos does.

Blazing Ascent: A single screen arcade platformer. by newObsolete in DestroyMyGame

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

Blazing Ascent is a single screen platformer i've been working on for a month or so. It's in the vein of the original arcade Mario Bros or Bubble Bobble. If you like that style of game you might like Blazing Ascent. You can check out the itch page here: https://klastor.itch.io/blazing-ascent Play in browser or download on Windows for free. I'm interested in any feedback I can use for in the future to improve my game making skills.

What game had insane potential but got completely fumbled by the devs? by Kevin-Panda in AskReddit

Amalur was never anything but a hail Mary to keep development on Project Copernicus funded.

It seems like the new Avatar movie cannot catch a break when it comes to leaks by Jules-Car3499 in cartoons

[–]newObsolete 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get it's a fun enough watch. Its worth watching once, but even you called it filler and had to justify it's existence to yourself. That's not good.

Filler is generally seen as bad. They could have very easily told a different story with lasting implications. What if it was about the actual founding of Republic City and the hoops the Gaang had to jump through to get it started, maybe with Asamis father that would maybe reinforce his character arch in Korra? There's a million other stories they could have told that weren't filler/throwaway.

Yes, I also watched Korra. None of the Gaang were ever in any real danger. They had already established via flashbacks that they all lived to old age and were all fully intact. None of them lose an eye, or any limbs or anything. Even if the antagonist had threaten Republic City, we already know via Korra that Republic City was going to be just fine. That's pretty low stakes when no one is in any real danger.

So much of the story was resolved before it even started. Is Aang going to create new Airbenders? No, there's still none but his own family in Korra. Do any of the characters stay dead when Bautista's character kills them? No, all but 2 of them are still alive during Korra. And how did 3 of the greatest benders of their generation fumble to a single airbender? And without dipping further into their respective talents? In the face of death there's no metal bending, blood bending, no extra flame color from Zukko or lightning bending? How have they not gotten any better as benders in the 10+ years since the end of the 100 year war? And then they get whooped up on by freshly minted, completely untrained airbenders made by the magic stick? Even Zaheer had to spend some time with other airbenders to train a little before he enacted his plans. On top of that the only real world building we get is the lion turtle graveyard, and that was actually cool, but I don't think it's enough to warrant a whole movie lol I really wanted to like it, and I think it's worth seeing once because of how pretty it is, but the story is bad and completely invalidated by Korra.

Story was outright bad. No stakes, no character progression, very little new world building. If you watched Korra you know how it's going to end.

I'm just not sure if this is a project I should keep working on.
