how do you feel about the image above?
:triangular_flag_on_post: Mintybadger#3438 received strike 3. As a result, they were banned.
idk
for me it was ok
shocking..
i hope people do it to me
when i raise a red flag
like, it's not wrong, but not appropriate for this server
also i think this is one of the first 3 strike bans since we implemented the system
yeah it's wrong for the server but a meme, so i was confused :/
hey the mod agrees
considering they were 3 striked, it seems like a repeat offender
i think being attracted to minor is hella lot wrong..
right the image was calling people like that out
there is type of minors
a 16 year old when you are 18 for me does not feels like a big deal
anyway, there isn't much discussion to be had here, the image was not appropriate
Do not turn this into a discussion about being attracted to minors
with a messenger bag
3rd generation?
generation 1
yeah, i confused with the evolution of Bagon
i played the heck out of my soul on Emerald
Dragonite obviously. It's right there, flapping it's wings
I meant the ban rofl
Dragonite happened. That's why he's smiling. That messenger bag contained a letter saying, "You're banned." 
i mean, i dont know much either, but it sounded like a place where you can go in games that have vikings and stuff 😛
that's such a cool way to get banned , now i feel like i wouldn't feel too bad if i got banned by dragonite
ah ! yes , Thor's hammer also had a similar name to my misspelling
could also be next valheim dlc
did they all fall by posting weird memes ? what does the big data says
big data says Dragonite has a taste for blood
I should make this a gif
Please do
because that is basically the scene, a dragonite appears, hands ash a letter, ash reads the letter, and then dragonite flies off
what's the letter about?
"[User was banned for this post]" would be such a good letter
it was inviting ash to take part in a pokemon tournament
ah xD
i can't when i got so many people to hug !
they actually had it in some movie theaters when it came out
and they'd give you a special promo Mew pokemon card
the card makes it worth it tbh
do you have the mew ?
i had like 7 of them because they just gave me a bunch
ah so that's where metwo is from
they're apparently worth lots of money now
but i gave them all to my nephew years ago
so 🤷🏽♂️
well yeah, premium cards
what
well, okay
it's still your nephew
you can keep me instead if you like, this is a joke, don't ban me
why did I read this as "You can keep insulting me, but..."
was like, who do i need to strike
me
relax ! 🫂
@deep copper, :8ball: My sources say no.
guess i failed 😛
i truly wanted Godot anyway
have you guys played stardew valley? im thinking about buying it. looks cozy game
it has violence on the caves!
i am solo code noob
Unity has tutorials on how to find tutorials
ah xD
Csound can export .wav and .ogg
it's dangerous out there ! take me with you !!!
though i am useless, you will have some emergency food
there is a co-op! O.O
its quite fun, i occasionally play it.
(after the initial 1 month-non-stop when it got released)
even modded in a red-haired hailey with freckles XD
i saw that new disney game and people said it was similar to that, so i got interested 🙂
that looked fun too, but only consoles
i wonder what Maxxis will do to the next Sims!
its my guilty pleasure
but i was obligated to fish
and main sims folder
https://i.gyazo.com/70ffd8acaa04b2f2f4d685ce2b60df31.png
send help
!8ball HELP!
@zinc matrix, :8ball: Cannot predict now.
bummer
That a barely modded Skyrim size
Gotta agree, much less polys.
lower tex res
ak47 for sims
cant even handle 4k textures unless you heavily mod it, and then it ONLY allows 4k textures and crashes on lower res
Isn't there hipoly curved body for sims?
there are body replacers yea
wait, wat.. that disney game is using unity engine 🤔
looks kinda nice
oh!
WALL-E is such an insensible creature
it is on top of a cabbage!
So I'm at a hospital
My doctor sent me
Been having a headache for a week and my pupils are slightly different sizes 😐
Fu*k me....
I'm not catching a break this year it seems
Pupils? Hmm... what does that mean?
Sounds like it could be some kind of neurological issue... but probably best to let the experts at the hospital figure it out :P
There's a lot of random shit that can have those kindsa things I guess, I bet even stress could cause it if it's bad enough
Oh, or migraines
So it could be nothing serious in that sense, just annoying :P
Years almost over, hopefully next year'll be better for ya 🙏
Have a CT scan in a bit so I'll let you all know how it goes
Playing a bit of Dying Light 2, the Narrative can be sometimes from cringe to stupid. Controls can get weird sometimes. Also the "juicy" wounds on zombies make me roll eyes.
Gotta love too how npc teleport everywhere.
Good luck!
it only get worse at end 🙂
i think they fired their main writer during development. or something like that.
some intern probably wrote the last parts ..
am i the only person thats wondering if that chicken luos is holding is still alive ?
we all came from stardust… why bother?
I remember luos said something about the chicken living in his friend's farm or something.
hmm
Another hospital visit?
Best of health to you bm, hope you manage to sort things out 👍
the black thing in the eye
i hope its not anything serious
I wonder if current generation actually get that joke.
if they dont, thats why the world is falling apart
I forgot which scene that comes from though, kindergarten cop? Turbo man?
Getta da choppah~
kindergarden cop
the current generation is lost!
feel how silly they are...
trying to glide into the moon
Grow Up, 3 hours to beat and get the glider with an engine!
this game feels so nice with a podcast
pure love
Hello. My name is Ferdi. I have been developing myself in game design and development with great passion for 12 years. At first, I started by making 3D designs. We tried to develop games with people I met over time. Most unfinished business, of course. Over time, I developed myself in the technical aspects of 3D design related to games and game engines. 6 years ago, I started to learn unreal engine with very little software knowledge. In this process, there was a gap full of financial and life problems, where I had to stay away from the computer for 3 years. I've dealt with dozens of jobs away from game development. These follow-ups had positive effects on my social life.
I learned that my friends with whom I played games in 2010-2014 quit their profession 2 years ago and entered the game design and development business with all their knowledge. At that time I was working as a cleaner in a warehouse. And they offered me a higher salary than my country's average wage. Although they were very successful people in their fields, it was not long before they started to develop their skills in gaming. When I joined them for 1 year, I prepared models for the game projects they were currently developing. I trained myself a little more on Zbrush and did my best to improve the quality of the models.
1.1.5 years after the team's first meeting, their financial savings started to decrease and we stopped our game project and started developing games outside. These projects were generally online casino games. The people we met in this part of the industry and the conversations made were often not very suitable for our team culture, but we continued so that we could continue to work financially. We made a business deal with a big online casino company in a different country and 3 of my friends went to that country. After a while, we would go as the people who were left behind.
The person we made an agreement with almost ignored our entire agreement and caused us to run out of our last remaining financial power for 4 months.
When they got the news of this breakup and informed me for a while, I thought things would go bad and morale would be low.
And in Unreal Engine, which I have been trying to learn and improve myself with great pleasure at every opportunity for the last 6 years, I decided to develop a small prototype that I prepared in my spare time about a month ago. This was my first project that I was going to start developing all on my own. I think I started in mid-March 2022. The project took shape over time. The idea was not original, but it is a game project in the style of "Vampire survivals", as we do not want to develop hypercasual games and we do not have enough financial and workforce.
The experience I've had since I first started the project has been incredibly satisfying to me personally.
Things have gotten worse over the last 4 months and the team is almost on the verge of disbanding. I worked full time on the project I developed, almost day and night, and my other friends were interested in other jobs. They were helpful from time to time as needed. They were in the process of continuous improvement in the planning and feedback parts.
Now the project is on the verge of completion, but we are the same 🙂
First of all, I may have dramatized what happened. I love my communication with my colleagues and the way we work. All we want is to be able to continue on the way we started.
Among my friends, I have friends who are very talented and experienced in the field of software apart from game development, are image directors and anthropology graduates.
In our country, investment in game projects is made in hypercasual games. Since we do not develop hypercasual or derivatives games, it has been incredibly difficult to find investments.
My question is: What can be done to survive and move forward in such situations?
The technical difficulties we faced were never intimidating. In general, the individuals or companies we work with or work with for a fee did not keep their promises and helped us to progress as a team over time.
If you want, I can send you a steam test code for the game I'm talking about.
The purpose of writing these sentences here is to pierce my heart a little, to get your experiences and comments, and if there are relevant people, and to find people who believe that the project can take the future of my team in the sector and can help.
In the things I told, I described most of the places superficially or I skipped too many details.
Let me finish now. I apologize to everyone for my bad English.
develop hyper-casual games?
i mean, i am sorry for your experience...
hope that you trim more next time hiring; but as a noob here, i do not feel any escape beyond doing hyper-casual to gain momentum and then develop what you want
if you did not lost the files of the bigger games, they are idling, they can always be worked again after a while
@zinc matrix Thank you. I am actually satisfied with the bad experiences in this process. Only the events of the last months and the way these events reflect on our lives have seriously worn out my friends, as we actually know what we can do. 2 months ago, I had to leave them and return to my family. I continue the project with the support of my family. As much as they can in my family, they know my passion for this job and my friends support me as they know it. But I have friends who are married. The problems caused by the fact that they channel their whole lives to this work bother me more.
Actually, this is not the end. In any way, our life can go on, but it is scary to lose the momentum and excitement we have gained and not be able to pick it up again.
As for hyper-casual game development. This is a solution for the current situation, but it makes more sense to focus on things that have already come to a point.
transmute the failure in more strength when trying next time?
i mean, esoteric comment certainly
and just to clarify, i make 0 $ on this field, living with my parents
but if your married friends are in the void, maybe the casual games to get budget is smarter than trying to rely on a single big game
as the % of kickstart founding that goes alright is really low, as the amount of financial successes on this field, specially on the indie side
@storm matrix
An advice, keep your posts in readable lengths of chunks.
I understand you have a lot to say, but long blocks of texts just wouldn't cut it on discord.
Try joining the voice chat channel maybe?
I sincerely apologize for the nonsense in what I wrote. My English level is not very good.
Yes we must be try
I've always wondered if it would be viable to make a gambling game that doesn't require real money or some other parasitic investment.
You can bet some game units.
I assume the thrill of gambling comes from being put at risk... hard to do if you have an unlimited supply of in-game currency. Maybe there's a way to do that with the threat of exponential progress.
But still, my assumption may be wrong.
"unlim supply" is the assumed here. It is about the value of a symbol, so put it behind some effort.
For example, in a DarkSouls-like game you can bet the horns of a devil boss.
Time bounding half an hour battle. kek
Although that risks breaking the 'addiction' loop of gambling.
Unless the effort is also a gambling minigame.
Gamble so you can gamble...
Many addiction games are based on just "one-more" like a famous web games. I remember personal experience with one of these jewel aligning games, where pieces just fall from above like in tetris. With a bit of effects it worked.
Anyway, going to beat some juicy zombies and marvel at narrative quirks.
(read nonsense)
Mmm, narrative quirks.
MC can be cringe sometimes
btw, taking out the control from the player sucks in any game I have played so far, don't do it.
Risk doesn't always have to be in the form of in game money.
A "duel" where you can lose things attract people
in MMOs
some sort of a gamble
Although HL2-style live cutscenes where you lock the player in a room while they run in circles and jump off the scenery aren't great either. As the player though, I do feel a bit guilty for ignoring the character animations in favor of feeding the adrenaline rush.
Didn't eve online have that risk factor where you can take people's playtime by destroying their ships?
ISKs or something?
1- Dont collaborate with anyone in Turkey, only 1% of the people has actual experience here
2- No money = suffering & wasting 10x more time than it should be for a game, bad game design = no investor
3- Dont rely on teammates if you're not paying to them
4- Either have a very small scope that you can build everything in blueprints or get very good at C++ so you can build a prototype on your own without being dependent on anyone
5- If you have no money and teammates to work with you'll only survive if you are able to handle the suffering
I don't think ISKs are ordinarily transported in ships.
It feeds the sense of risk, every action in that game is a gamble.
MMO can be worse than gambling
grinds
Not a player sorry, just read some articles about it before, my point is, it doesn't have to be in the form of money to initiate the gambling/risk mechanism.
Depends on how you monetize/manage/manipulate the risk factor 🤔
Rationally, most everything, even money, is a cost through time investment.
I'd give my soul to play a MMO like shadow of mordor
a grim reaper somewhere approves your request
It's only gambling if you stand to gain anything. 😛
Eating ice cream doesn't have a random element of loss... unless you're making your own.
i think the point Zenn is trying to do is; gambling may not be the worse practice we can create as game developers
Forgot the pistachios AGAIN.
Based on science most satisfying thing is shopping
Yes if you live in Turkey you have to guess if you buy today, is it going to be cheaper or more expensive because of inflation xD
Would you believe I lost $200 because of this ^
I spent ₺ but its equal to $200
Did they implement clothes on the blockchain in Turkey? 😛
It's a gamble if you don't have a clue whether the ice cream have a vanilla taste or snot taste when you buy it inside the package~
Chocolate flavor is the best
and lemon
damn now I want ice cream 
#lounge always make me crave something
ew, salty chocolate?
I'll take bubblegum and matcha, they taste great.
It does not.
I'm not into salt when it comes to things has sugar inside of it
Though there's a significant portion of people who don't like sweets with their salty things, so there may be hard differences in people's taste buds.
Seasalt taste I've seen, haven't taste it, but salty chocolate?
Really?
That sounds illegal
Even imagining makes me want to puke
not because I'm reserved though, Im just having difficulty imagining how can it be tasty
bet 😄
I totally heard from a zoomer
I guess it means "deal"? no idea
might be derived from "you bet" short for "you can bet on it" or "you can count on it"
So you are officially liable for one pint of salty chocolate ice cream.
like Fujiwara? ^
that works too
yes
||why would you convert Hayasaka into a man ffs||
I'm on EP7 iirc
had to take a break to not binge
btw even ||kei thinks hayasaka is more beautiful than shinomia||
I never played it either, but my take was that the game was more about opportunistic exploitation than risk. ISK was directly translatable into the cost of ships, so it's pretty easy to brag about the real world of value of combat losses, but there's no unpredictability in the game design beyond player behavior and server performance.
Would make sense, ||they are about to graduate anyway||
Interestingly, platforming games have some element of randomness, since player performance is essentially random.
N++
they had a whole GDC about that ^
How do you produce thousands of levels without repeating yourself or sacrificing quality? This GDC 2016 talk from Metanet Software's Mare Sheppard and Raigan Burns summarizes the level design lessons they learned over the course of the decade-long development cycle that led to N++.
GDC talks cover a range of developmental topics including game...
ExoticallyJudgedTank.
UltraSaltyTank.
ExoticallySaltyTank.
Not that I have that much problem with salt and sweet though, I eat my fries with sundaes or ice cone.
But at least they're vanilla taste, not chocolate~
How bout a roguelike with random level generation, random monster spawn and amount, and random monster level?
Does that add some gambling mechanism to the game?
Player won't know what dungeon they'll get, and if they die there they'll lose/left their equipment where they die.
too late i used the west town city
Is that a paid marketplace asset?
Not familiar with the name, sorry.
Sounds like the map system for Torchlight or Path of Exile. I never got that far into either, but I think they were tradable.
nope free "Downtown West Modular pack"
I'm going to ignore that and pretend people are trading actual levels because that sounds really weird.
"A whole level? That must be heavy."
bad dog like memory leaking
And they're craftable, probably. Since everything in PoE seems to be craftable in some way or other.
So in the end they didn't do CT
They got the blood results, neurologist looked at me and basically they said there isn't anything serious going on
Most likely dry eyes, or my lifestyle of staring into the screen all day
Got another appointment with a neurologist and an ophthalmologist in a week
But they said my different pupils sizes are probably because I have different diopter on each eye, left -0.75 and right -0.85
I know there's many ways to introduce a risk or cost. Maybe there's a list of them in a game design glossary somewhere
We are sad that you will have to end your game dev career here, peace bro
Might take a slight break tbh
I'm suffering from chronic eye dryness
I know how it feels 
My eyes also has almost same values
left one 0.75 other one was around .25 but probably increased over the time
i have Graves Disease in my eyes and astigmatism which really sucks
eye problems are the worst
Might be for the best, cherish your health fren ❤️
nothing in l ife (except your children) should ever be more important than your health
Look at some exercises for the eye muscles too btw
people have eye diseases
my back: how old r we ?
Sounds like a good idea.
Are you a workaholic by nature bm?
What does Graves Disease do?
Haven't had the time to wiki it.
it's basically a thyroid disorder, either underactive or overactive, also has an eye related component
@deep copper i want my daily hugs
Astigmatism is the one where you have trouble with horizontal vertical line alignment right?
yup, it is due to a mis-shaped lens on one or both eyes
What particular effect did the graves disease do in your case nigey?
lous is offline... so r u readaaaaaaaaaaay
bulging eyes, pain at the back of the eyes, swolen eyelids, not nice.
@pure summit lol maybe later, i have to secure my base in DayZ lol
loool
Aah, so you'll just like, have those happen randomly sometimes due to the disease?
That's rather uncomfortable, sorry to hear that.
yup, itll be sporadic, but as with the thyroid disease itself, you get it for life
🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂
Should just find another game partner who's up for your challenge.
AU?
i want a challenger not a huger
it's not convenient to do on a phone anyway
😂
Burn, AU not even considered as a potential challenger.
xD well they aren't wrong
Should be an online site somehere where you can play boardgames.
there probably is
it must be fun going to someone for making the glasses
well true, they don't generally say anything
wait how do you end up with a + and - in seperate though
i can't think of any normal use cases where that might happen
sleep with one eye open?
that explains, i suppose, genetics is wild
yeah, those puny humans are full of bugs....
i am the parent 😭
that sounds like something i may regret googling
Didn't realized bob parr got a mullet 🤔
Hori zon !
yes 😭 🫂 how's it going?
i didn't realise he was called bob parr
What do you call him?
Mr incredible?
... uhm, yeah ?
You're going to spoil his real identity in public if that's the case 🤔
Bob's a very fitting name for the guy btw, very "born in the 60's" in feel.
I'm gooood how are you 🫂
i can't believe it
people have been calling him Bob all this time 🌸
better with you around ofc!!!
What normal name will you give him aside from Bob?
William? Frederick? Keith?
John James Billy Rob also seem to go with Bob
Rob is technically his name as well, so yeah.
Not sure bout Billy though, Bill maybe, or Matt 🤔
and his name is john ceeeeeeeeena
I'm not sure what video you're posting yahia, can't see anything.
Tim and Tom too !
what?
names you give to this person @zinc matrix
Because his name is john ceeeeeeeeeenaaaaaa 🖐️
no hated him at this role he was really bad
wait did we got whoosed by zenno
He was amazing as Peacemaker lol
Dum... dum dum... dum dum... dum dum...
The stiff kind of out there acting was just right for it lol
i saw no peace
You probably need to watch something else if you wanted peace 🤔
The pacifier? 🤔
maybe
Haven't really watched any of cena's movies actually, but he does look like he got some chops for awkward comedy.
wait he is in movies ?
i thought he was a wrestler
Well, both of those isn't really mutually exclusive, so...
But still, not sure why anybody want to watch somebody that they cannot see 🤔
maybe they can feel
Good comeback 🥁
You're an expert in this.
if you want to compliment me, feel me 🫂
Those 3 spotlights, looks like he's doing an inside reference to baron corbin.
have you watched peacemaker show?
the John cena was on one talkshow wearing his peacemaker costume
Sometimes, I'm super lazy by nature lol
But do like doing stuff, if I take a day off I'm bored as all hell
using MJ also counts as work btw
Honestly might not be a bad idea
Might try turning all of the blue light filter crap as a start
i got headaches recently and mons told me to use the filter as well, i haven't gotten headaches again after i started using them but could be a coincidence too
the adobe xD when it was free it was nice now for me too expensive
well just recently you cant update the app even anymore with out adobe CC subscription active
adobe : reducing chances to earn with regular users since forever
❤️
I saw that gif on yesterday after WolfPack the Finnish basketball nicknamed so win in Eurobasket
that's eren with their 🤝 emotes
smoking can cause eye dryness too 🌀
i can make it wet again !
they said smoking, not coffee
and CAN
ik what he said
do you know what i will say as well ?
what do they do there ?
so no meatings?
i do not compatible
today i woke wondering if i will bonded to birds and other insects as companions
my birds eat only dead insects
excuse me
not everyone too
it is the same mechanic of you blocking me Laura
😞
maybe if i live on a sailboat i will make friendship with fish too
oh !
i am drying
no one answer me
and today is the day of binging on mini golf courses modeling
looks very alive

isn't that way cooler than fish and birbs?
does ariel count as fish?
ah well, she got a fin and scales?
so probably yes

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners premiere might be a week away, but the Edgerunners Update AKA Patch 1.6 for @CyberpunkGame is already available!
🔥
am i dumb or making Pedestrian System as a junior is very hard ?
CodeLikeMe has an easy to follow tutorial on it
anything that is not a human, or anything that does not speak human languages
so i can easy relate
as they are probably not judging me too much
i saw it but i have traffic lights so what he did they just walk
legs
oh, i misread lol
legs when being on the dry land too long
bad joke went even worse
🤔
add some area on the cross sections of the lights? then fire a wait and move to according to their state
yes what area how to differentiate between the cross road points and normal points
but actually identifying if they will cross the section that the light is, i have no clue
make multiple splines ?
hmm, there is not a navmesh link on UE?
i thought it is used to connect 2 points
for jumping for example
they just connect navmeshes areas, what they do is up to you
if set it up, they do not jump, they are just 'teletransported' to the next area
oh cool i will read more about it
omg, the MC from DyingLight2 is one of the most annoying ninny I know as of late
you so much pain in playing this?
go for Project Zomboid ryobg
or better Grow Home!
but there is no zombies 😦
Masochist mode, I have a long list of bugs and issues I found
yeah, i feel you, sometimes consuming art is about feeling pain
I wanted kinda more RPG approach
have you ever read about Project Zomboid?
this is on my next to play list. it looked "fun"
Yeah, saw some clips
and have multiplayer, if you have buddies
they are on the game for a long time now
i think the alpha or beta goes back to 2014
i wish i can understand it but it is very complex for me right now and i did not learn data asset yet (working with unreal for 5 months)
have you ever played Dead Rising?
Wait, that not that voxel game?
that might be why blue man used midjourney so much
i did i like it more than dying light
give it a try, is really broad
I kinda wanted to try the latest AA stuff, saw some clips about DL2.
Apart from art, disappointed.
Seems most games lately just wait artists to do the heavy lifting.
the industry is getting bigger and bigger
and that does not translate in better and better, unfortunately
i know it is not related, but Sunset Overdrive is kinda zombie like too
and feels fun
Frankly, I'm not into Zombies, I just wanted some kind of base building / survival experience. Then I found the State of Decay and followed on.
yeah
there is a nerd one, really slow and most fading regarding amount of player
but Heaven & Hearth is the most hardcore base building / survival experience i found up today
Gonna look it up
but the graphics are dated
Maybe I had to add into TPS/FPS mode, not so "strategic"
ah
Looks interesting tho
that one i recommend getting together with some people
i got 3 friends to play, back when the graphics were worse
we played the heck, for 5 days
some high players came and destroyed everything
and it is permadeath
No time to play much, I'm kinda playing with some research purposes in mind
then Youtube
Well, you can't really go and check out some material work, for example, on a video.
do you mean material like texture stuff?
Nor do some UI, locomotion analysis.
hmmm, there is plenty of videos about UI on Youtube, that are really in 'depth' of the craft
and i think good design and user experience is universally translated in any genre
now how the locomotion feels, i agree, gameplay is a must
I want practice, not theory. Also, yeah, I'm familiar that there are videos 🙂
at some point i got some videos of Celeste and i was analyzing the flow of players on different slope position
playing myself lead to a very different analysis than watching pro players
xD
they beat the game in 15% of the time i take
i did 30minutes of weird things checking the IK system in GTA
it's pretty good but also not flawless
i got frustrated with Grow Up
the game entirely is about IK movements
and somehow Ubisoft made it look worse than the indie version, Grow Home
walking on slopes felt so weird
❤️
same here love
did ubisoft make a pretty much 1:1 copy of the game?
even the player character looks similar?
yeah, but they managed to allow steeper slopes being walkable with the same mechanics of the first game
i will not record a video of Bud (the main character) walking on but if you play one day
did they buy the original?
it is just ridiculous
or how did that evolve into some kind of ripoff?
Ubi are such a streamlined factory.
i think they went in an agreement to make the version 2 of the first game
but actually, besides that little note, the game is an upgraded version
way more things to do
ok, i see
and more systems to move around
really neat
i hope they do a 3rd version
actually i would be sold on a MMO of it about climbing mountains and finding crystals to collect
hehe
it is really clean, no UI when playing
as John cena was covered on lounge before https://twitter.com/JamesGunn/status/1566869488741629954?s=20&t=aWrznNpIFUMD-seXllO7YQ
I wanted to make that comment, but it would be so obvious.
I mean, nothing there, so someone prolly farted.
why not ?
Is it on drive C ?
+1, i do not understand her concept
yea, "My Documents"
so i should sit uncomfortable beacuse of the camera ?
ily too ! sure 🫂
why i attend a show that bright lights in my face, ever heard of personal freedom?
so i get abuse for money ?
laura would sit on lap of other guest?
what kind of third world do u life in ?!!!!
well, this is theirs
if i had enough money i would hire you to hug me
i would do it for free
every single day
"I do avoid gamedev"
me too
same
it's burning with, passion
it is on fire, how is this cute, r u heartless ?
Not sure I have played it even 🤔
i do not what is more scarier, you prof. pic. or you gifs
Not Sonic 1 or 2
aa, dang, never got the money for it - back then
I got one pack of Sega games, I guess this is other thing.
checkin'
They kinda added more games? Thought they were like 5-10.
Ah, yeah, there is a Bundle!
how much are they?
~1 euro
well, 1 euro seems okay, 5 too much
I liked that snow level
Tbh, I played mostly with Tails, because... flying
sonic origins have 1 2 3 and CD
Hmm... there was a remake of Streets of Rage, but not of Golden Axe
Janiksu: what gifs should i get from deep web
huggable ones perhaps
seriously why peanut @zinc matrix
It's all about green hill zone, I'm afraid!
why not?
(because I thought the thing was adorable and the owner told me the chicken doesnt mind)
Just ate risotto with chicken
o! so if you are adorable and don't mind it, there's a chance 🤔
maybe luos can hook you up with the chicken?
I am a hugger though XD
meet me irl XD
aye aye !
Does anyone have any advice for getting a group of game devs into a group that can create a successful game that can potentially turn into a studio?
#career-chat #industry-chat may have something
do game jams with randoms, and figure out who fits you
That is an excellent idea.
Alright I will look at those.
definitely game jams is a good idea
go through a "full cycle" in quick time
you'll learn a lot about other people's workings
and if a game you make is fun you can expand on it as your studio
Full cycle?
well, it's not perfect, but i think your success rate might be higher than relying on their resumee
Oh.
Ah got it, so make a really small and simple game, then remove the dead weight?
and i'm perfectionist, which is a pita as gamedev, too
you can definitely figure out workflow and cooperation with them , and see if you both cover your weaknesses well
well, not sure if i would count anyone as dead weight, unless they contribute nothing or tear down the team
That is my largest concern.
Alright.
i would consider them dead weight if your cooperation and working styles are different
they are dead weight to you
even if some don't contribute much, but what they do is good, you can still take them into account
some might do it next to their full time job, so don't expect 100% from everyone
Yes most certainly, so take into account quality, skills, and how they work.
Oh I don't.
yup, you can always figure out and work things out with more time, if they have potential
but still, do ask in #industry-chat if you want more advice from a different set of people
idk if you can really expect advice from successful people from the industries there
end of day, anyone can post their opinion there 😄
even AU
i don't go there
make your people work for 5 hours daily
Now I am confused, do I go there or not?
and it's better to ask people in the industry, we could have missed something vital
and that is the limit
Most of us do other stuff as well, so 2 hours might be better.
unfortunately
ah ok, but when you reach the company park
making people go creative for 8 hours a day is just pointless
Well I don't see that happening.
upto you man !
they go into discord to distract themselves or even worse, hacker.news read
Oh, that could be a pain.
cringe is a way of living
True.
nah, thats nonsense
i really doubt people can go more than this
first because of the challenge of doing it by itself
i really doubt that anyone can do 5x5h / week creative work
unless they are lucky to be in the flow
secondly for one being working for a company that they may not believe completely
and you can provide them the necessary work environment
if they are motivated/ have deadline, they are forced to work, but the quality does dwindle i think
working focused 100% 8 hours per day is a huge task
oh my, ben poked me
this type of practice is still rooted on industrial revolution
there is plenty of data on papers about people barely sustaining a efficient work over 2-3 hours per day
specially creative people
of course, physical job the limit is higher
see, my fricking neighbor is sawing for half of the day in his garden now
and there is exceptions to this general conclusion
how would i be supposed to work with that fricking noise?
turn on the speakerbox
because that ahole can't do it in his house/garage without pissing off everyone around here
work environment always changes limits 😅
draw a sword and establish a limit
also depends on the day though
give them a kiss each time they do, they will stop because of different reasons in the end
sometimes I have days where I'm productive for 6 hours, sometimes I have days where I'm productive for maybe 6 minutes
exactly
and maybe easing how much time you need to sit and fake you are working improve your productivity
everyone is on the same page here
now find some stubborn idiot which hires people like that
with their 9-5 hive mind
i hope i can do it
i will be your book 📘 , wanna open me ? 📖
i prefer e-ink stuff
that's shocking,
but I don't mind some electricity on me
sure i will do some DIY electrical gun when we met
a comb also gets charged if rubbed enough
what's a 1840 battery ?
but some number
a capacitor can change your mind...
i once got 400V from a little one which was supposed as buffer for a camera flash light
boy...
hey i have seen these, they touch you when you touch them
this is great way to burn down your house
NASA is buying risc-v computers!
i love this photo
tip currency ? 🤔
and i love you
yeah... but the company is doing closed-source design
seriously, it is so pointless to diverse players in any business
i know
i may use this in my favour
they are using them, not buying looks like
well planning to use
million deal
fixed-price
i sincerely do not care actually
fuck humans trying to live on space or whatever in the 21st century
there is my video-game to develop and a lot of children to treat from basic diseases
as well, convincing people to eat more corn and not chickens
i had the unlucky day of reading about some people planning to feed livestock with insects
just one more layer on the food chain
grains -> insects -> livestock
OH! CRINGEEEEEEE
we should directly eat the grains !
what doesn't kills you makes you stronger !
now both are strongwr
so a broken arm makes you stronger?
what dont kill you make you stronger
yes ! now you won't do risky things that broke it
you are stronger !!!
i don't know if that logic works out so well...
or you make the around it stronger too so all support structure is stronger the weak points getting stronger so your weakness is stronger
i can't think of an example where it doesn't 🤔
yes, the arm itself may not be stronger now, but you , as a whole, definitely are a better version of yourself
from the aspect of survival ofc,
Manny's arm
so someone which breaks their arm was weaker to start with compared to anyone who didnt break their arm yet?
what are you talking about exactly ? 🤔
you know what you must not do to break the other arm or other body parts now, those who haven't broken theirs, won't know about it, was what i meant
what's up with the peanuts !
do i get stronger by breaking more than one bone?
mabye the ones that never broke something already knew it
yeah, and it didn't kill them, so they got stronger
yes
imagine you are facing a boss in the boss room, if it didn't kill you, you get stronger for facing it the next time, as you know its patterns now. the others who haven't faced it, are weaker against the boss compared to theirselves which has faced the boss and not died
whats with those who face the boss and kill it first try?
they got stronger too, as it didn't kill them, they gained exp against similar types of problems
so what doesn't kill you makes you stronger
but also, what kills you makes you stronger
do you think they sometimes play with the boss?
because they know they gonna beat him?
basically, everything makes you stronger?
no
if it killed you aren't stronger, you are dead
but you resurrect stronger
it shouldn't kill you, is the thing, it could, but couldn't
since you learned from the death
Some people become stronger than you can possibly imagine when dead.
dunno, maybe ?
some people got "stronger" by the dead of specific persons
It was a star wars reference.
or rather, their weakness isn't that endangered anymore
i haven't died so I can't confirm that
how do you know?
that's just an assumption
my memory doesn't go that far, it's as good as i learned nothing from the death, so it's as if i didn't die
Maybe it's subconscious.
maybe your subconsciousness...
might be, but again, I can't confirm that 😦
yea i was busy looking that word up in the dictionary 😄
It makes since that death makes you stronger - what weaknesses are left after death? No weakness. Therefore you have become stronger.
what a word man
Is it though? You can't be hurt while unalive, can you?
i love having suggestion strip on a phone
Clearly you've never seen a vampire or zombie film.
i was just teasing ben, didn't know this would get weirdly philosophical and movical
i bet you that there are people who are hurt if you pronounce them wrong, even when dead
You rise from the grave as a zombie. You no longer need to drink, sleep, or eat (but you want to eat). Weaknesses begone
so im a zombie, interesting...
i want to hug you though
Wow you would really deny them a hug because they stinky huh. so much for affectionate
maybe you are a zombie, too
i am talking about rising from grave myself, hug chances lower
hugging just one person when you can't even feel any of the touch is weakness enough
zombies dont feel the hugs?
the nerves are dead yeah?
hmmm, sounds fair
Then how do they move if the nerves are dead
no pulse, no touch
also fair
spiritual energy i dunno
how do they move AU, tell us
i never met a zombie, ask one
you are typing funky today, maybe you are a zombie
maybe their nerves are just kinda numb?
yeah, so no touch
their taste and smell buds might be alive though, they can move towards humans and sniff brains
Maybe? They often still have the ability to see and hear, so why would their sense of touch begone only?
They can taste too
actually maybe not, i recall a person immune to pain
because they equal pain?
But eyes, ears, tongue, nose, can't function without functional tissue
i need a masochist
People with the no-pain disorder still have a sense of touch
so you are saying they can feel their flesh hanging and swinging in the wind
Well I doubt that part because the flesh has been detached from the body and nervous system
if only they didn't eat brains, people would give them good hugs
Like if you're finger is hanging on by the skin, you aren't going to have a sense of touch on the tip of it afaik since the nerves are severed
i think people do feel the touch at times due to some psychological phenomenons, but yeah, nerve wise they shouldn't
First it was smelly meat now it's the brain-eating. You're just coming with reason to not hug a zombie
if i am dead, I can't hug others
i wanna live
a one time zombie hug sounds like a loss
also the sounds they make aren't the best either
how old r u guys 13 ?
i can try if you like ?
strong vibe ppl are the worse
what's a strong vibe person?
the ones who think everything makes them stronger
😶
what u mean by everything ?
they aren't wrong, but different stuff increases the rate of strength gain differently
read the chat previously
sad brother 2.0 need an update to have a mouth
sad au need an update to have a nose
that's weird, she is cute without a nose
🤔
⚰️
yeah, and with that green hair too!

i might do this though
you already did
nope
