hue

bump

You don't need to do that in Veeky Forums

where have you been all day? we've had another general die today

Please move this shitty general to another image board please.

Take /utg/ with you too.

Threadly reminder Undertale is globalist propaganda.

Pity bump.

Someone sounds pretty mad

*Huh /indie/ was pretty alive not too long ago. What happened?

What am

I found the first image in the DashBored files, it wasn't there earlier and I don't remember seeing it in game

Looks like a real lazy edit in any case.

user is DashBoard actually good, might give it a go after Underrail.

It's okay, I had fun with it, but don't expect a masterpiece or something

>10 posters
straight outta pathetic

What indie games has /indie/ played this year?

Hey guys, I'm just popping in to get your opinions on this.
I'm working to replace the battle sprites for DashBored.
What do you think about this?

It's not a good game but it's no Off or Lisa.

Eeeh, it's probably because I'm just used to it but I kinda like his hair a little less detailed. It's probably because in the older one he just has like bed head but in the new one it sorta looks like it's all combed over in a weird way. I dunno though. The pose is much better, but I kinda like how disinterested and annoyed the older sprite looks. Maybe give the new one a more annoyed expression with the eye brows?

Woops I meant to say it IS a good game. Sorry I didn't mean it's bad.

I'll work to make him look a but more pissed, the problem is when you move the eyebrows down they collide with the eye and make it look weird.

What about this?

I'll see how I use it.
Btw what do you guys think about glitched?

Never played that game? What's it about?

It's on kickstarter.
It's another earthbound clone, except it has absolutely nothing to it that's unique

Jesus even Knuckle Sandwich sorta understood how to do glitches better than this. At least that game was sorta subtle about it in its trailers. This game isn't even subtle, it just flat out tells you the surprise of the game. I mean it could work but it just doesn't sound that interesting really. There's nothing setting it apart from the other earthbound inspired games like Undertale, Lisa, Mother 4, and heck even Knuckle Sandwich with its muppet looking characters and far superior looking wario ware battle system. I haven't played it though, only watched the trailer, so I can't really say too much.

yah I am

how's the game coming along?

>Literally copies the outdated earthbound battle system
Yeah no thanks

You mean the standard RPG type of battle system?

Regardless, it's archaic and not worth revisiting.

It works when done right. Lisa's a good example.

Too many waves

Don't lie to me user

In the hair?

Greasy to fuckboy in 3 minutes. Money back guarantee.

Not him but yeah. Are they even the same ahir styles?

I'm making my own fonts

Oh nice. So it's an RPG?

Nice. What are you building this in? Have a repost in return.

Old one looks like he'd force you to suck him off, but the new one looks like he'd suck you off

My favourite things in plaforming games is when as the levels go on there are more death traps death pits/less safe ground

quick someone draw the old one forcing the new one to suck him off

>tfw you go as fast as you can but Mentor still gives you shit for making Waves

>playing EYE

Mah friend of any ethnic heritage

What game?

>user doesn't know about EYE Divine Cybermancy

I figured this would be an appropriate place to talk about it since it both an indie and has no general for itself
EYE divine Cybermancy
If you want a detailed breakdown of what it is, check out this Sexbad review of it:

tl;dw: Jank as fuck source mod that's fun as fuck but also very confusing. Expect to earn Brouzouf and be aware of the status of your legs

It MIGHT be an RPG. It's kind of going to be a puzzle game but you move around the world like you would in a JRPG.

GameMaker. GM isn't great but I've gotten accustomed to it.

So it was going to be like the witness? Also what's wrong with game maker?

bump

GameMaker has some issues. You can't define constants. Some of the coding in GML is surprisingly convoluted. As far as I can tell GameMaker is pretty good but there are some things that annoy me.

>So it was going to be like the witness?
I'm not sure yet. I got a story on the plate and I'm designing gameplay scenarios around it. At one point the protagonist needs to track down the phone number of a stranger so the player has to take care of that. There will be fighting so I might put in turn-based battles.

Any indie ARGs that arent cringy?

Frog Fractions 2

>Game maker can't define constants
From 8.1 to Studio, they changed "Constants" to "Macros". I don't know why, but whatever. Open the Resources dropdown menu to find the list. Alternatively, you could create a script to initialize local variables when you need to call on certain stuff.

>Some of the coding in GML is surprisingly convoluted
In what way?
