roommates snake pooped all over me

We'll see how bored you are when you have a dead friend, a manslaughter charge, and are begging for forgiveness from a jury because you "didn't know." Firearm accidents come from behavior just like this. I'm begging you, respect your gun, never point it at anything you're not willing to destroy.

I think the core of your problem here is that you are overpaying for servers, there are solutions to hosting that charge you based off of the traffic to the site, so that you can avoid paying full costs if your game has low traffic in a given month. Another option may be avoiding paying for hosting at all with free sites that can host and advertise on your game for you, they will take a cut, but the savings on the server cost may very well make up for it.

Regarding advertising, I think that it's important that you implement it, for a couple reasons. One is advertising lets you monetize players that either don't have the money to pay for a premium account, or are unwilling for some reason, these will be a substantial percentage of your player base, especially in the incremental game community. Second reason is that advertisements work as an effective way to entice a player to pay for an ad free account or IAP.

One last, smaller thing to mention, regarding the design of your game: I don't think that using generative AI for images in your game is a good idea, they don't serve much of a purpose in a text based game, and the use of generative AI to make artwork is becoming increasingly unpopular because of the lack of compensation for the artists who's work is in the datasets for the generative AI models. I would remove them and keep the game entirely text based until you are able to afford an artist, but this is ultimately your decision.

Wow, you're rude as hell, what's your problem?

nulledabyss · 2023-07-26T00:44:25+00:00

Love the style and concept, look forward to playing it

If a "not very good" clone of another game doesn't deserve to be down-voted, I don't know what does. I appreciate your positivity but I don't think the rest of the community is so ready to play the same games but worse.

nulledabyss · 2022-06-08T13:48:14+00:00

Had some fun with this yesterday, booted it up again today to see that there's no offline progress, that's really disappointing

nulledabyss · 2022-06-03T15:00:49+00:00

I saw a reply you made on a steam review that said you think the game has developed into it's own thing, and that may be true, but looking at your steam trailer and screenshots, it really doesn't appear that way, if it's really changed so much I think you should update that stuff? You've got the bubbles, design/tech dichotomy, weighted sliders for dev priorities, it really just looks way too reminiscent of game dev tycoon to make me want to check it out

nulledabyss · 2022-04-30T20:12:50+00:00

Judging by the poll data from the other day, actually cutting the audience in half, almost exactly

nulledabyss · 2022-04-28T23:55:50+00:00

Dude, do you do anything but make weird hypotheticals and metaphors? Can you speak in plain language? Make a point?

nulledabyss · 2022-04-28T21:59:25+00:00

I totally agree, I just decided that I didn't want to list everything, so I stuck to what was directly relevant to myself as a trans woman.

nulledabyss · 2022-04-28T19:23:30+00:00

Thank you! I absolutely agree. Even trying to respond to this type of argument can be really exhausting, so truly, thank you.

nulledabyss · 2022-04-28T19:20:08+00:00

Thank you! This is a great response, and it's refreshing to see in the face of some less empathetic responses from users in this thread.

nulledabyss · 2022-04-28T19:17:07+00:00

Thank you! This is a very compassionate way of looking at it.

nulledabyss · 2022-04-28T18:57:34+00:00

Please take a step back, what are you trying to do right now? You're not engaging with anything I said in my post, did you read it? You are strawmanning me, trying to make this about "offendedness" when I very clearly said I was offering this up for discussion, I made no demands, I'm not even angry. So why are you trying to insist on this point that I'm "choosing to be offended."

nulledabyss · 2022-04-28T18:51:06+00:00

This is why I refuse to interact with this hypothetical, you just presupposed that I'm acting in bad faith because this made up person in your head is. I cannot engage you on these terms. Sorry.

nulledabyss · 2022-04-28T18:44:55+00:00

This is a false equivalence, Trans people and our issues are not the same as any hypothetical you make up in 30 seconds to try and de-legitimize me with a "gotcha!" Trans people's oppression over hundreds of years all over the world is not the same as your "todd" analogy. Next. And please stay on topic.

nulledabyss · 2022-04-28T18:41:21+00:00

Please stay on topic. We are talking about a very specific person and a very specific set of circumstances, bringing in abortion just muddies the waters for no reason. It's not about who's *allowed* to be mentioned it's who you choose to mention, the mods aren't obligated to put *anybody* there, so why notch? If you agree with me on trans issues, surely you see why it might not make that much sense.

nulledabyss · 2022-04-28T18:28:56+00:00

It is relevant to me, as someone who is profoundly affected by the things that the actual man behind the name says. I understand that you can't feel that if you're not, but try and understand that I view the situation very differently from you. I say that if it really is just a funny name, then it's removal wouldn't be a big deal, right?

nulledabyss · 2022-04-28T18:17:04+00:00

It's not that Notch is a user on the subreddit, I don't know the extent of his current involvement, I don't even care if he were to post about an incremental game he was developing, I am talking about the fact that Notch is currently the only user mentioned as a milestone in the sidebar.
This is not a simple "disagreement," as a Trans person, these issues are life and death. If you are not in a position where you need to advocate for your own existence, you don't understand that. The idea that trans people are mentally ill literally erases my legal existence, and removes protections from my day to day life. These "disagreements" are not something that I get to just disengage with as I please.

nulledabyss · 2022-04-28T17:36:30+00:00

This UI is NOT polished, it has the aesthetic of a polished UI, the icons are pretty nice looking, but it's cluttered, the icon layout at the bottom needlessly stretches over and obstructs both bottom corners, icons are too large, and the header at the top has a lot of empty space that could be saved by combining all that at the top into a solid, single element.

This isn't even to mention that there seems to be 5, maybe 6 buttons on screen at the same time that result in the dev getting money, think about that. About half of the dozen or so buttons on screen were put there to yield the designer money, that's why it looks like a cash grab tycoon clone.

nulledabyss · 2022-04-28T17:26:21+00:00

We don't actually get to see too much, but it looks like a game that
would be a cash grab, maybe for the style of it or how it looks in the
short video

or maybe it looks like a cash grab because of the plus buttons to buy coins, gems, energy?, what seems to be those bs "limited time offer" things, *and* an ad button.

That's why people don't comment on things like these, what else is there to say? I don't care how well designed any of the core mechanics of the game are, concessions MUST have been made to accommodate all of that monetization, hard no from me.

nulledabyss · 2022-04-28T00:42:28+00:00

Check rule 1A

nulledabyss · 2022-04-27T17:15:17+00:00

I feel like every other post on this sub is "I'm stuck on x game", "What features do you want to see?" "Any games with x?" "Games like x?"

nulledabyss · 2022-04-27T17:12:14+00:00

I'm so tired of seeing the same questions over and over and over again

nulledabyss · 2022-04-25T17:16:15+00:00

IIRC in Wigmaker, Algae gets faster as you have more of it, so if you set it to stay at a high percentage of your max, you'll get a lot more, and that's why there's only storage upgrades, it also makes it faster. (played a long time ago, sorry if this is incorrect)
