| How to avoid your players from be COPYRIGHTED by YouTube because of your SOUNDTRACK? Posted: 22 Jun 2021 04:56 AM PDT I did a test where my tester uploaded on YouTube a gameplay of my game using a "known" music by YouTube. He got the message that he don't own that song being used and the video will be not monetized. Now, I already have the soundtrack made by a professional artist. My doubt is, how can I guarantee that someone will not somehow extract the soundtrack from my game and upload by their on? Should I upload in the game studio channel the song first and somehow "tell" YouTube that people can use my song? How it works for game development? Thanks you all. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Posted: 21 Jun 2021 01:18 PM PDT Hello, this is my first post here. I want to share my story and feelings with you. I am 33, a mother of two wonderful boys: 1 year and 3. My husband is very helpful and loving. I have decent work in the game dev industry with nice working conditions. And everything seems good. I should enjoy my life. But I just can not. I have that scratch inside my chest — that need of creating something big, beautiful, and interesting. So I want to develop my own game. And I am doing it. Every day, I am spending all of my free time on my indie game project. Working late at night. It is a whole world for me, full of interesting mechanics, places, and colors. I am having so much fun! But sometimes, the second feeling that is lurking somewhere deep inside me begins to grow uncontrollably. It is an absolutely overwhelming fear of failing. I am getting so scared that I can't even move my hands. I am just sitting there in the dark, being scared and wanting this feeling to go away. Thinking all the bad thoughts: what if I will fail and never finish it. What if no one likes it. What if my game idea is too much for me to handle. And it is going on and on and on. =_= Maybe you had a similar feeling. Please share it with me! If you did, how on earth were you able to get rid of them? Since I just hate it. I can't stand feelings of embarrassment and fear. I have never written something so personal like this, but I figured that maybe just try and share that with you guys, and hopefully, it will get better while talking to you. Sorry for the long post, it's really nice to meet you guys! [link] [comments]  | ||

| Posted: 22 Jun 2021 10:05 AM PDT It's still early days with developers getting big lump sums to release on gamepass, but what happens when consumers ultimately prefer paying a small amount per month for ALL games rather than paying a large amount for one game and the lump sums vanish as they have the market share of users? It feels inevitable with many games going free to play only further devaluing paid games. My main question is this: how does Gamepass determine how much each developer gets paid? Assuming the best case scenario where a user pays $15 for Gamepass ultimate, and they play only your game: even if you get the entire 15 from that month, what if your game cost $30? A more realistic scenario in my mind is that a player would play many different games during the month and Xbox would take a hefty cut leading to a figure of $1-3 just like what happened with music streaming on Spotify. How will indie developers go from getting $30 a copy to potentially $1 a copy? Yes more players will try their games but ultimately the payment is far less [link] [comments]  | ||
| [C++] A Free Open Source Colliders Library - Line, Circle, Box and Point Posted: 22 Jun 2021 03:19 AM PDT https://github.com/Ratstail91/colliders For anyone looking to do collisions in C++. I know collisions were a massive pain for me a few years back, so I've written this for those who need/want it. This comes with a suite of tests as well, and are built on a Vector2 class. I hope somebody finds it useful! (I'm still thinking about making line projection relative instead of absolute. If that means nothing to you, don't worry!) [link] [comments]  | ||
| From fullstack webdev to gamedev? Posted: 22 Jun 2021 10:24 AM PDT Hey, how hard is it to change careers from a full stack dev (mainly Java, Spring and React, Redux) to a game dev, considering I have a good grasp of Linear Algebra, State Machines, probability, algs and other theoretical CS stuff from a university?

| SDL2 is zlib licensed but why it's not included in other code repositories? Posted: 22 Jun 2021 09:12 AM PDT Well is there something wrong with SDL2 licensing that people include other libraries in their ``external`` directory as dependency specially for windows builds. I've seen it in SDL2_image source and also Hashlink repository. They included other dependencies but removed SDL2 in their source code (gitignored it). Wanted to know is there licensing issue or some other issue? [link] [comments]  | ||

| Solution Regarding The Usage Of A Star Pathfinding With Composite Colliders Posted: 22 Jun 2021 12:23 PM PDT I have recently discovered that when using the A Star pathfinding system in the Unity game engine along with any 2d colliders combined into a composite collider, the navmesh resulting from generating a scan from A Star has many errors and missed/mistaken areas that should or should not be walkable. To fix this problem, I have found that changing the composite collider's geometry type to polygons instead of outline patches up these mistakes reliably. Of course, this will not do anything if your main A Star script has its circle collider diameter set too big to generate any meaningful pathways throughout your tilemap but I have provided the solution for any people who have done this correctly and are stuck. Hope this helps! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 22 Jun 2021 04:51 AM PDT Hi, I am 16 and live in New Zealand, that means I am going to university in 1.5 years. I'm just not sure what I should do - I like the idea of game development and created a few very simple browser games with Javascript and HTML. I also enjoy doing maths, just solving some problems even if they have no meaning My 2 options that I would like to study in university are Pure Mathematics and Computer Science, but I'm unsure which one should be my major I think I would enjoy Pure Maths more, as I enjoy the subject in school, but Computer Science would be more helpful as I want to be a software developer doing game dev. on the side in the future My parents say to do what would help me more in the future I like both subjects, but like I said I think I would enjoy doing Pure Maths as my major slightly more Thank you for reading! :) *Also sorry If this is hard to read, english isn't my first language [link] [comments]  | ||

| I'm working on developing a game. "Business" - entrepreneur simulator Posted: 22 Jun 2021 11:40 AM PDT Hello everyone! I'm currently working on an entrepreneur simulator. All the mechanics are already thinking out and interconnected. The game will be developed in 2D style in Unity. Presumably, the platforms will be PC and mobile. My driving force is two things that merge into one: the desire to buy and the desire to sell give me a sense of excitement, a feeling that encourages me to do it again. When you get to the point, you feel satisfied and drawn to the next steps. When you miss , you want to leave, but you realize that as long as you have the resources, everything can be fixed. If we strive to get something more than what we already have, we always take risks. The risk is always justified, because it comes from our desire, we can not take the risk and stay in place, or take the risk and move forward in our desires. In this universe, there are customers who need a particular product, and perhaps do not need it at all, competitors, unscrupulous counterparties, foreign economic risks. All this limits the hero. We always want to feel successful, we want to become better in one area or another. This game gives such a chance. The human desire to be the best sets the pace, keeping up with which the player will feel like the king of the stone jungle. And of course, everyone wants to be in business without unnecessary bureaucracy.The action takes place in the office, the main character is engaged in reselling to increase his wealth. He has a telephone base with cards of customers and contractors, which are filled in during the call, the dialogue takes place through dialog boxes. The player needs to keep an eye on competitors, customers, and the market as a whole to win. Our hero is a manager, so he must manage all the resources of the company, improve the situation, establish communication with clients and counterparts, and develop his own company.All these actions are directly related to entrepreneurial risks.The hero is limited by resources (labor, money), the reputation of the company, many risks.The main interest in the game will be clients and their behavior, they will always have their own opinion that the player will have to work with. Clients can be friendly, aggressive, apathetic, negative, biased. They can place orders, write reviews, change their minds, ask for a discount, sue, bring new customers, make gifts, demand a refund, return goods, talk off-topic, cry, not listen, block, argue, refuse services, agree to a deal.Each client will have his name and a card with data.Also, the player will have to correctly select his contractor and product. Since the goods are of different types: medical supplies, stationery, food, equipment, etc. Each of them has its supply and demand. It may or may not be necessary. The choice of a product gives the risk of not selling it or selling it slowly.Contractors also differ. For example, one contractor has a small assortment, but the minimum purchase is 5,000 conventional units , the other has a larger assortment, but the minimum purchase is 20,000 conventional units, some supplier has the right product, some do not. There will be only two restrictions in the game, resources, and reputation. You have to choose an economic strategy and tactics for the development of your business. You can follow the in-game news feed, where you can see trends, deficits, and much more, or use your intuition strictly and also achieve success. There are a lot of strategies, the main thing is to find your niche. Thank you for your attention! I am ready to answer your questions =) [link] [comments]  | ||
| How "unique" does a game need to be to avoid legal issues? Game Mechanics vs. Content Posted: 22 Jun 2021 11:34 AM PDT Lots of games are "inspired by" other games. There are hundreds of versions of match-3 games, infinite runners, castle defense and other games, each with a little tweak here and there. In other words, they often copy the game mechanics but change the content. I'm curious if anyone can share some advice or experience with avoiding copyright challenges and so forth? So for example, let's say I love the strategy game XCOM, and want to create my own kind of game, but I really love their game mechanics. The way turns work, players move and attack, grid movement, up/down movement, cool-downs on some abilities, etc. Let's say we want to use the game mechanics pretty much verbatim to how XCOM uses them. But we put the game in a new world, perhaps the wild west? The good guys are cowboys, the bad guys have black hats, the weapons are replaced with period-appropriate pistols and rifles, and a western-style storyline wraps everything up. If that game were created, would be too unique to the original game (XCOM) to publish? Would it be risking a lawsuit? [link] [comments]  | ||
