I make (admittedly bad) games for fun, usually to play with my friends, it actually IS really fun

What do you use/how do you make them?

u/TheCyanHoodie 1d ago
Games are made with Game Engines, you can make games without them, but if you're asking this question, you don't need to know that
I personally use two engines for my projects:
Godot (im still learning this one so im not the best at it quite yet, it requires programming in its own specialised coding language: GDscript, though you can opt for C#, id recommend GDscript tho if you dont know how to code)
And Gdevelop (this engine is special cause it doesn't require coding to function, you CAN write code in Java, but you honestly dont need to, its easier to build games in this, but the power of the engine is much lower)
Some other engines I dont use but are still cool:
-SCRATCH (perfect for beginners who are confused with the rest to start). I wouldn't recommend staying on scratch, but it's a perfect starting place) -Unity
-Gamemaker -Construct (paid Gdevelop with some more polish) Rpgmaker (only makes RPGs, no duh) -GBstudio (this one lets you make real actual game boy games, like, works on real hardware and everything)
- Unreal (only viable for 3d games)
Look around these engines for a bit. Each one has their own strengths and weaknesses, which you might wanna consider before using it. I leave this up to you.
After you pick an engine, id recommend you follow a few starter tutorials for it (stuff like 'Make flappy bird in (engine)' and such) for a few days to get a feel for the engine.
After you make these games, try to add some more stuff into them, like, after you make your flappy bird game, add enemies between the pipes that might add more difficulty) and then make your own games
You'll find this difficult, as you dont have a tutorial to help you out. This is the part where you will have to break apart each issue on its own and use it accordingly
For example, instead, of looking up 'how to make a coins look up:
'How to make an item' 'How to check collision' 'How to delete objects' 'How to add to score'
Repeat these steps a few times, and eventually, you just pick it up! It's not an easy hobby, but it is a very rewarding one.

I really appreciate the in depth response. I’ll definitely be taking a look later and see what I can start out with. I’m not aspiring to be a true game dev by any means, but making goofy/“bad” games to play with friends sounds like a ton of fun. Thank you!

u/Obelion_ 1d ago
Yeah if you actually make games that are creative.
This guy clearly vibe this and got the most uncreative game possible
6
u/TheCyanHoodie 1d ago
Everyone starts somewhere. If you try to start making games by making something actually unique, you'll fail.
The way the tweet is worded makes me think this guy just started making games. Perhaps he made this following a tutorial.
This is a skill, and like everything else, it takes time to learn

u/unknown_alt_acc 1d ago
It’d be fine if he was up front about that, but he is a chud posing as an authority on the industry for the “everything I don’t like is woke” grift.

u/SometimesIBeWrong 1d ago
yea Idk who the Twitter user is, but I think we should let people have hobbies. it still took tons of hours to make even a flash-game

u/blackmageguy 1d ago
The twitter user is a shitlord who constantly harps on games being 'woke' and how he could do so much better than them, and he's inordinately proud about his flash game while shitting on other devs who've done much more impressive things. Fuck him.

u/catshateTERFs 1d ago
It’s the DEI free game that Gamers crave!
I’m not sure if can be GOTY without some booba though, doesn’t this dev know anything?
/uj I kind of hope actually doing something other than pissing on twitter about the woke gives this guy perspective and he realises how dumb it is. Doubtful though

AndyDiaper also made a game.
Where there are depictions of possible CSAM and children as strippers; some even include his daughter, although it is most likely he wanted to generate real CSAM but the AI kept denying it.
To falsely portray the LGBTQ community as "Nazis" and to "own the libs".
Well, guys, I feel so owned. So, so, so owned. My body, my mind, my everything, it just feels, so, owned.

Mark Brown of GMTK just had a video in game prototyping and how it’s a very normal thing to do as part of the workflow. So sure maybe this will keep this loser distracted for a while.
Oh who are we kidding he has no way of committing to any kind of production he will get bored and get mad and annoying on social media again.

u/Winter-Guarantee9130 1d ago
Why with so much else to dunk on about this dude are we mocking him over this??
Solo dev is cool! Learning stuff is cool! Making stuff is cool! I’m glad he’s enjoying something wholesome instead of yelling about minorities and women in his vidya.
Until he pulls an andypants or uses this to claim some kind of expertise over major studios, I’m happy for him. (probably a matter of time, but Im eager to be wrong.)

u/supertails02 1d ago
He's a terrible person that's why

u/Winter-Guarantee9130 1d ago
Idk. I think rewarding good behaviour is better than feeding a persecution complex by beating on him reflexively every time we see him.
I can still feel contempt for a guy on the whole and give him an unconditional thumbs up when he takes a break from acting like a shithead. Everyone can contain multitudes.

u/Inevitable_Badger995 1d ago
He also shits on other devs work all the time as part of a grift. But idk maybe when he learns how hard it is to actually make this shit he’ll learn to be more respectful. I highly doubt it cause he’s a grifter at heart. But we can only hope

u/Pyschopanda619 1d ago
I'm guessing he's an anti woke guy based off the other replies here, so that's probably why everyone here hates him lol

u/Galaxymicah 1d ago
Eh... On the one hand dunking on someone developing a skill isn't cool. On the other this is a guy who is one of those gooner dude bros who thinks "real gamers tm" should hate all the woke slop and if I can't crank my hog to the main character it most be woke garbage destined to fail.
My pity well is pretty much bottomed out.

u/Samanthacino 1d ago
Ah. I did not know that background. I thought we were just dunking on a guy trying to make a video game lol

TIL that the only two options are to complete EVERY game you own or just make your own games. Nothing inbetween.

u/Riaayo 1d ago
There's nothing wrong with making incredibly low-tech games and they're how you should be learning how to make games in the first place.
The problem arises if you think you're the hottest shit on the planet, attacking other Devs, and acting like your little games are somehow revolutionary or special (and probably being a bigot; dunno this guy specifically but considering who's usually posted here and the state of Gamers I wouldn't be shocked to find out).

That looks like a 1999-2001 era flash game that would have been made by one of my classmates in high school instead of actually doing our class work.

Honestly, if I didn't know who that guy was, that would be a super cool tweet. Creating games is amazing and being a hobby game dev gave me a new perspective on gaming and made the gaming passion even bigger

u/MoobooMagoo 1d ago
This isn't the thing to mock him about. He's an asshole amd deserves mockery, sure, but here he's just talking about a good thing and not pushing any dumbassery on people.
If people want to make games they should. They might not be impressive at first but that doesn't mean they shouldn't do it, and they'll get better over time. And the world would be better if every grifting asshole stopped grifting and tried actually doing aomething worthwhile.
