I think the scary part of genAI is that fighting technological advancements in and of themselves has literally never worked, but nobody really seems to have any alternatives

Planning out dialogue for the big scene change in False Fruit

Planning out dialogue for the big scene change in False Fruit

Ragebait's getting really good lately. This made me want to kill somebody

Intrusion is on itch.io now as well! One line of dialogue is updated in this version.

Am I going fucking insane

Back to False Fruit

gaming magazines used to be so true........

Anyway, the page isn't super polished yet, but you can play Intrusion now! gamejolt.com/games/Intrus...

You would really think a Game Jam with this description wouldn't require you to fill out a Google Form with all your personal information, upload a gameplay trailer to YouTube, and join an entirely separate gamedev contest running in a completely different time frame, but what the fuck do I know

Script is done and everything's basically working as intended! Gameplay-wise, I really just need to make sure the timing of the textboxes is okay and add a title screen + credits sequence. Everything else is just replacing a few placeholder graphics.

I really love this layer effect in GameMaker with absolutely 0 use cases

Taking a small break from RPG Maker and making a micro-VN for a game jam. Codebase is done. Script will likely be finished tomorrow. The last few days will be about polishing and putting in proper visual assets. The game all takes place in one room, a therapist's office. #indiegamedev

God making 22,000 species of ants

It is genuinely almost unfathomably racist to AI-generate what are effectively caricatures of black women and then publicly broadcast "commentary" on them as if they're real. Obviously the treatment of Black women is always appalling, but this really feels like we've crossed a line we can't uncross

I wish Soulja Boy repeatedly trying to re-sell random emulation devices as his own game systems wasn't so funny

20XX is probably my least serious game while also being the one I feel most compelled to tighten up and finish. I basically made the entire thing with a very specific boss fight in mind, and I ran out of time to add it

so we finally pushed the GMS2 patch, and I even wrote a lil news post for it on steam :)))) First time doing something like this! you can read it here: store.steampowered.com/news/app/342...

For any other RPG Maker devs like me that have been scouring for a decent dialogue editor, I would avoid paying for this plugin. #indiegamedev

I might learn JS and how RPG Maker works internally solely to make an actual good external text editor

STOOOOPPPP STOP LETTING GAME JOURNALISTS TRICK YOU INTO ARGUING ABOUT YELLOW PAINT STOP PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

Designing for nonlinear progression is kind of hard..

I really really wish RPG Maker just had a competent tool for external dialogue editing. It's genuinely my biggest pain point with the engine. No plugin has worked how I wanted it to

Planning out probably the most ambitious change we'll be making to False Fruit v2. An area that only consisted of a single map in the original is going to be expanded into a pretty good chunk of the game.

I think this is the first YouTube Shorts thumbnail that actually made me like genuinely violently angry

i just accidentally replied to a random person I've never spoken to with a completely fucked up image of some guy's face

Updated False Fruit's page to have a normal comments section instead of an area for discussion posts

Good day to not give a shit about Halo

Being into game dev online fucking sucks because 10% of what you see is actual interesting work, and 90% is the most mind-numbing discourse rehashed on loop all the time forever

Updated this to make some things a little clearer and explain why the Inspector window might be showing you the "wrong" information.

It's really sick how something as simple as "Two things moving at the same time" can make a gamedev workflow 100x more complicated

Going to be making some adjustments to the guide after watching a friend work through it. Mostly things to do with the IDE itself, since it's very easy to get lost inside it if you misclick once. The Room Properties specifically are really easy to get lost in now -_-

If you've ever wanted to start developing video games but found yourself consistently bouncing off other tutorials, I made a guide to get you started with the basics of GameMaker. #indiegamedev brittlelizard.neocities.org/BreakBrick1

I was going to internally count how long it took for someone to get mad that I put a while loop collision in my GameMaker guide, but it didn't even take a day

Sketching for an updated scene in False Fruit

I'm gonna make proper posts everywhere for that gamedev tutorial once I get home today

I'll post more about it later when it's not 3:00 AM, but... I think my GameMaker tutorial is done. As time goes on I'd love to update the styling of the site. For now, it's readable and gets across everything I wanted, though! Let me know if anything looks weird. #gamedev #indiegamedev #gamemaker

Hopefully the tutorial will be finished today since I have a day off from work

Crashout Crew's demo is incredibly fun if you have 2 or 3 friends to play with. The sense of humor can be a little grating at times, but it's never overbearing in a way that distracts from the gameplay.

Decided to make a neocities for the GameMaker tutorial instead, since it wouldn't fit in an itch.io post. I'm now just working backwards from Word's .html export to fix formatting problems and get everything how I want it to look.

I can't really work on my GameMaker tutorial since the only step left is transferring it all to an itch post :,)

I think it's important that we mercilessly bully anyone who uses ChatGPT for sexting

Really unimpressed with the Bubsy 4D demo but I'm glad you guys are having fun
