| My First Trailer. Short and to the point (is it?) Posted: 05 Jun 2018 06:36 AM PDT Hey all. Hope it's OK to post this here as I need someone else's eyes! I've just finished my first attempt at a short trailer for my game - Buildy Road. It's a mobile game, so I've tried to keep the trailer short and fast paced. Never done a trailer before so feedback most welcome. [link] [comments]  |

| Youtubers show how to download my chargeable Steam game for free Posted: 05 Jun 2018 11:23 AM PDT Hey guys, I released my own game on Steam (not free) and now there are at least two videos on YouTube (50 views in total) showing how to get a ZIP file and play it for free. The guys also show the contents of file where they even included some HTML documents with their YouTube channel links in it, so they modified my original ZIP file. There was a free version of the game on itch.io as a ZIP file but judging from the looks of the video, the version is rather new. I gave away 20 keys to curators on Steam, two to Youtubers who actually did a gameplay video and one key to an "influencer" which I revoked later. A few options that came into my mind:
Do I have to worry about this? If this is a common problem for indie devs, how do they go about it? Thanks a lot! [link] [comments]  |
| What makes AA/AAA devs prefer UE over Unity for big budget game production? Posted: 05 Jun 2018 12:20 AM PDT With a few notable exceptions, a larger segment of games that get released these days, usually on the bigger budget side typically use UE as 3rd party licensed engine over Unity, particularly when games need to push graphical power. Is there a specific reason for that? [link] [comments]  |

| WIP art from our upcoming tower-defense magic spell crafting game Spellbook. Posted: 05 Jun 2018 04:39 AM PDT As a start of sharing our work on social media, here is some of the work in progress art for our game in the making "Spellbook". It is a tower defence game, but you have to build your own spells while protecting your base. No shortcuts as you have to act fast and bind spells before the monsters gets closer to you(and kill you..). Both on ground, and in the air. More content will be uploaded and a trailer will also come where you can see this in better action. What do you think about our background art? https://i.redd.it/e0u1yjly56211.jpg https://i.redd.it/rgzp3z6y56211.png https://i.redd.it/7ddwsinx56211.png https://i.redd.it/mqinzw9x56211.png https://i.redd.it/3zqzrrrw56211.png [link] [comments]  |

| A new game based on the Lovecraft universe Posted: 05 Jun 2018 11:06 AM PDT Heya guys, It's Cithyan here and It's my first time posting on Reddit. I created this account a few years ago in order to follow the r/leagueoflegends thread but I don't play it anymore. What I do now is working for a small indie game studio located in Spain which is developing a horror survival game about Lovecraft universe (yeah, another one...) as a CM. I'm practically new at this so I wanted to ask some feedback about our work. We are posting 3-4 times per week about our art, previews, 3D models but the people who drop likes never comment so I'm pretty much feeling like they are not even interested on our game and just hit the like button randomly. I thought Reddit users may be more active that's why I'm posting here :P The platform we use the most is Instagram Any feedback will be appreciated. Thanks for reading xx Oh, I'll drop this here to create some hype... [link] [comments]  |

| Noob question about 2D collissions Posted: 05 Jun 2018 05:16 AM PDT Im pretty new to game design and I'm trying to understand how everything works. When I'm checking if a player object is colliding with another object do I have to do this check with every object on screen or is there a more efficient way to do this by checking only surrounding objects?

| Brainstorming: Single screen demakes Posted: 05 Jun 2018 05:00 AM PDT Hey guys I recently saw a tweet from Daniel Benmergui where he said he'd like to make "single screen demakes" which I thought was a really interesting concept. Distilling something that already exists into a single (or refined) mechanic and restricting it to a screen sounds like a great exercise. I feel like this would be beneficial to my development as a game dev and possibly help others too. I found some discussions on Tigsource from 2008 (where they had a game jam) but it'd be neat to have a live, more relevant conversation about it, particularly with the knowledge that has been learned from 10 years ago. I'm pretty green to game dev so I'd love to shoot some ideas around, advice on scoping down, rules of thumb, people's experience doing this etc. Try and build a good resource for others to come back to over time. What do you think? Love to hear your thoughts! Edit: I missed a word or two [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 05 Jun 2018 08:45 AM PDT Basically, I never finish anything. I know how everyone keeps repeating that most people never publish and that it's an imperative to complete a game, in order to familiarize yourself with the process. But I only have fun with building the game's skeleton, and I never get to implement the menus, music, sounds, etc. I remember Mozilla published an RPG browser game (I'm working with Phaser) as an example for something and it was very short and resembled Zelda on NES/SNES. Is it "allowed" to publish a game that can be finished in 15 minutes or so? I'm not looking to make money, I just need to get this first game done and I'm looking for ways to get there. I found some nice art for a 2D top-down shooter and I'd like to make something with it, however simple. [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 05 Jun 2018 11:53 AM PDT I don't know if realistic racing games (RFactor, Assetto Corsa, Gran Turismo, etc) do it, but i know DiRT 3, Need for Speed:Carbon/U2 and GRID do. Why is that? I apologize in advance if this is the incorret place to ask such question, but i believe that's not the case. [link] [comments]  |

| How do I show movement rnage in a srpg? Posted: 05 Jun 2018 10:13 AM PDT I have a* pathfinding working and a character can find the shortest route to any tile. But in a game like fft you can always see the tiles a unit can reach from his current position. How can I determine movable tiles when I have a max movement value(say 5 tiles max)? [link] [comments]  |
| I'm scared to post footage from my game online Posted: 05 Jun 2018 10:13 AM PDT I feel like there are many reasons why it would be beneficial for me to post some footage from my game to reddit. Getting feedback, motivation, create some hype or interest and maybe even host a public beta but I'm just too scared someone could rip off my idea. Since it is just a simple mobile game, I feel like it could be copied very fast and easy. How do you guys think about this? EDIT: FYI I'm not claiming my idea is good enough for someone to care just pointing out what I'm afraid off [link] [comments]  |
| Game devs - how do you interact with your players? Posted: 05 Jun 2018 10:09 AM PDT Mainly, on Reddit and Discord. I'm going to be working with a company and interacting with their players on both of those social media platforms, and I'd just like to know how you guys talk with your players/target audience. Examples like taking feedback, responding to a good suggested idea, dealing with an issue that a player may have with the game, things like this. How you field questions as well. And if you guys know of any subs where the devs have a good relationship with their players that I can peruse for more examples, that'd be great too. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Beta Testers Needed! New Prison Battle Royale Game! Posted: 05 Jun 2018 10:04 AM PDT We at AeroLab Studios have developed a new type of battle royale game set in a prison and are looking for beta testers.

| What do you want from a publisher? Posted: 05 Jun 2018 09:36 AM PDT From looking around there are so many different indie publishers, with variety in them all, if you were looking for a publisher for your game, what would you look for, and what you encourge you to sign up with a publisher, Thanks guys!
