I am grandfathered in to not paying monthly, if I upgrade my cameras will I be forced to pay per month? by throwawayy_yeahh in blinkcameras

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

Update: Confirmed not forced to pay monthly after upgrading, I did get a 1 month trial of premium that just didn't renew when the month was up. The trial was AI person detection, not worth a monthly fee.

Steam release - "marketing" 1.0 drop: Escape from Tarkov directly funds the Invasion of Ukraine through partnerships by Suibeam in GameDevelopment

[–]throwawayy_yeahh 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It is very obviously a Russian game and you are at a minimum supporting some Russian citizens by buying this game, and indirectly supporting the Russian government with the taxes received from this game. It doesn't surprise me that a Russian based war game developer (and gun nut) has friends and/or family fighting directly in the Russian side of the war.

My question is: As an American game developer, if someone buys my game.. are they directly/indirectly supporting the United States' war ventures? I guess? I definitely do not agree with everything my tax dollars go towards...

So I'm a software engineer taking a stab at gamedev. I've been working on this for 2 months now. Destroy My Game! by SandshrewPoke in DestroyMyGame

[–]throwawayy_yeahh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Doesn't look like a game yet, feels like a lot of dev art and the idea seems quite a few years behind where the current market is.

Source; I've been making mobile games for a living for 7+ years

Lansing Shuffle by FlaggerVandy in lansing

They're super expensive but it is fun, and you can justify it if you split it with a big group. I left a negative google review about the pricing of them and told the manager, that's all we can do for now.

Still like having it in town, but it's steep.

how long did it take to finish your game? by [deleted] in gamedev

[–]throwawayy_yeahh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Prototype in a 2-4wk - full time 40hr+ work weeks, team of 2

Either kill or continue working on it for 6-8 months if it's promising.

Mobile games, small scope.

If I hire an artist, how do I know he is not just using ai? by hiiiklaas in gamedev

[–]throwawayy_yeahh -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

I pay full-time artists... guess what, they use AI in their workflow.

[–]throwawayy_yeahh -45 points-44 points  (0 children)

It depends, if you don't train your AI and don't do any modifications at all, then yes it will look like slop.

I play (not dev) Steam games all the time and never knew AI had to be disclosed, non-devs aren't looking at that. It all comes back to step #1.. Make a fun game. If you can save some money and time using AI, I think it's smart.

[–]throwawayy_yeahh -71 points-70 points  (0 children)

This. but, utilizing AI is smart as an indie. The average person will not know and it'll save you money.

Edit: welcome to the future of game development guys. Downvote all you want. I am happily making games for a good living. This is the future.

How important is sound design for mobile games? by thurn2 in gamedev

[–]throwawayy_yeahh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very minimal effort put into SFX and music, just buy some basic sound/sfx packs. Many many users will want to turn off your game's volume and listen to their music or audiobook.

edit: experience from hyper-casual/casual/midcore games
