it seems all comments have dissapears at least from my edge browser if checked my games and noticed that you can still see them in each artists comment timeline, but clicking on it leads to an empty devblog page (kinda) and the option to return to the game, plugin. im not complaining thou, i just noticed this thread and wanted to report that it seems to be a general sidewide problem, which might not even be on itch site as far as i as no idea about all this can say from the traffic site you only reach that tells you this what is said lol well if i would have to guess it might be some europe lag .....well from an europe view lol, anyway i guess it might be just a tempory thing, as it seems to be rather a no connetion or too much traffic thing :) wish you all a nice day and much love <3

omg ive totally forgotten to reply to your message im sorry :/ yeah i mean alive is not the right word, but not dead yet lol but i had a drastic increase of my depression which made it very hard to get something further, its reallife related bullshit that keeps coming back always in the moment, you absolutely do not need it :/ and this makes it even harder to use bluesky, discord and pretty much anything else then sketchfab, itch and gamejolt, becaue its not like im too lazy,it hurts me by stressy feelings in my stomach, which could also be described as a steady pain that just wont let me focus, also i lately had a virus on my phone and pc, so i spent about 6 weeks to finally still really havent set up all my tools etc, which is pure terror in a tourette brain, so im really sorry, its not because i dont care about you or our connection, but at the moment im on a low ive not even had when my hd with myfirst game was suddenly broken, and all date gone :/ anyway, how about you, ive seen you dont follow me anymore and kinda ex-partnered me, is this because of what you said in your latest comment or did i do something wrong too that i maybe didnt even noticed :/ 

hey nice to see you my old friend lol, thx for you kind words, its not much but a rough start at the moment but you know how that goes if you want to add new skills but also simply sky adjusting wen throu multiple versions first i was satisfied looking at it on another occation i always start to .....experiment if it could be better, which of course it always can so hard where to stop and balance between too much and this is awesome feelings lol

thats really awesome man

looks very interresting.....the screnshots really made me dl this demo and try it....overall top quality very cool keep it up!

okay i understand  and  want to apologize for my "outburst" respecting your good  will and comment not judging me like the others propably do and therfor just because i respect you and i hope you can accept that i was unfair to you and all you do for us all here on itch . ill accept your advice thank you my tourette is like fight or flight all day, and calmness is something i need to learn to accept and practise. thank you for your understanding and good will therfor i removed all my comments, and will try to focus on other interactions :) best regards <3

awesome this looks very proffesional to me this looks like you could go on and sell this on steam, but it will be a pleasure for me to try it ...im currently loading.....also i see much understanding of lighting techniques and i congratuale on you "braveness" to use pink, purples, green which can give great effects, well at last i congratuale on this on, as a whole also page design screenshot choice very ART you put much love in huh? best regards <3

edit, is this unity? or something in more rare, to me i would think maybe unity, looking at the flashlights and screen effects, or am i going the wrong way? :)

edit again, okay im dumb the info stataes it clearly which unnreal engine version is this i i may ask, becasue to me the size is rather moderate for typical urnealengine games, or is it a demo effect lol :) really impressive and a please to try ill come back to you and deliver my impressions <3

arctic showdown early then alpha state

how much experience you do alrady have, or better said is it just music thats a problem, and you code and create the art by hand, further do you have team members, like splittin the game creation process, your question may sound easy, but you gave us not enough info about your status and also budget, becasue sure a human can feel art, and simple click done ai stuff is like shining in the dark, but if you use ai not in total depence itg can increase your workflow, but you also will hear ai slop or other insults by chance, then do you want to create a free or paid game, do you want to entger steam,  if you'Re willing to give me these facts i can only by my experince and by my word with the best intend  for you to reach your goal :)

Im truely Sorry in this Case i have to apologize,i Made tue mistake that i projected my Feelings about this steady arguing Which of two right ways the "right" is on you by only rreading your last one, im sorry really because you did indeed want to help by mentioning various Options that was unfair and i Hope you accept a truely ment excuse, im just seeing so much strange answers Attacke in a Scene where we are all one "boat"  Peace i See you a nöt the one that this Message was ment for Best regards ❤️

free aint free you have licenss you cant make it the way you really want and free pieces are  for gamers like an assetflip the problem with these things they are great for beginning jams, but we all want to someday make a stable income through games, and if you have multiple licesnse things can get tricky easly i dont say that ai ist the solution, but in this case you gave at least a tipp but in the end you have to do a compriomise in the parts of gamedesign you cant do now, and this makes it misleading, and if you comprare paying an artists ur paying a month of music ai is might be the way to supportr the artist but if you want to create a game alone fast and mostly like you envision, you will have to look what your budget is, for not just music, and what you can becaue tell me one guy can do any part of gamedesign in a way ppl would call aaa, but as indie you will or no if you have enough time and stable income on this price difference, its economy sadly and if you are new and dont anything about licensing you can get yourself into serious trouble .....real story the red cross sued a german gamecompany for using the REDCROSS as health system.....feel free to goole, and this is of course not relevant but this company made their first positive budget for a team and where money is they will strike and economically you would want to have not only less and less money because you have to live and eat, it migfht sound dramatic, but what else is the choice, ppl dont pay for game if no youtube or publisher has your back, the quality is irrelevant becasue if you dont hear about the quality ? its lke a deathsprial, and i see this more and more a beginnners cant get extra confused if they ask such quastions and you dont give them the full pircture, not especially your post, but this can create pain, you maybe wont ever see or hear, but ppl that start also want this becasue the love games and to create games, but games priced at ONE dollar show you that ppl dont like paying for our love......peace <3

and you are right my post was shit i deleted it im sorry this is my point thx <3 

oh cool, but im sorry i already found a ai engine which REALLY fits all my needs :)

calm down, fast is not furious here takes time to get your game known, you could make your "status" by views rather or by reviews if there already any and if the game iwsnt already released you can push it up id say 4 wishlists at least promise 4 buyers.... i understand humans want to see results fast, but especially in game selling and also creation, this  isnt helpful, ! best regards, and the most important thing is you do what you love you may have to fight,but fighting for what you love will mostly brring success in one form or anotehr! 

your right slavery is great!

is this connected to the king in yellow "saga" or just a city with mask in another context?

understandable we use them cut them burn them i would hate humans too, which i do but well sadly i cant be no plant

hey im also playing around with gddevelop curretnly but im coming more from or less 3d engines like unreal engine, gamegurur, easyfps editor etc, and i had psychig troubles lately   findinfg any motivation at all to work on something ....but i would offer or ask if you maybe would want to do this together, humans always can achieve better results working together, i also have a silver subscriptoin and a few bought templates respectively access and enough point to use the integratedai, so if would maybe want to give this idea a try just answer me here, thou i have discord, but as i has troubles with maleware and such shit lately i still dont have all my normal tool equitpemnt ready and i guess if id enter discord there would be so many contacts and numbers to check out that i would close it again instatnly.....but feelfreer to check my TREE with all my links and sites select the one you feel most confortables and answer via this way or juswt here lol best regards <3

What ist Bad Art ? As Art cant be rated in any meaningful way.....artist should Know that....

Edit: you Start Off drawing the Minecraft to Beauty Connection Which i can relate to but If i would have to guess this is not a fact ist because you or me too grew Up Witz SNES gameboy or even PS1 or N64 this is a nostalgic Feeling, Which maybe nowaday Kids cant Unterstand Or relate to because you childhood is the way this Connection Forma or Not it might bei interarsting büt i just think your Presentation puts your opiniion into a fact just bei certain words and there is no shame fir this As Humans mostly dont really motive it gut consider this will maybe also create comnents Like Mine or worse Like Attacke with Bad words....and i dont want to tell you how you make your Videos büt i Hope you can Unterstand my Motivation to tell you this i dont criticise you i rather would bei happy to extend you Horizon from another Perspektive Peace ❤️

Sorry for various typos i wrote it on my Phone Which is tuned zo German correction Which is pure pain ffor English txts

I almost only Test my Game myself before a Public Release, it might Sound odd but im nearly 40  (tomorrow im 39) and i was very activ starting with my First PC Athlon 700 MHz combined with the legendary Voodoo 3 Card which beat all other Card inclzding those by  Nvidia haha anyway i Gott quake3 which was the sh1t Back then, i shortly aftereards bought the ut99 which bought we're AAA Products that really deserved the Game, They both created the term Multiplayer only Games, but Epic and id we're Not dumb, you got bots to Play with and They could  really destroy you in the upper dificulty Strings, haha and ut had Genius Like 40 Maps in 5 Mods and they released their Original  SDK in the Same Wave combined with Internet becoming the Example of Games with longterm success and i mean ppl still Play and creat Maps..

---> nearly all my ut maps: Unreal Archive / Search

---> steamworkshop level-design;: Steam-Community :: -X-ScornGames :: Workshop-Inhalte

----> my games: -X-ScornGames - itch.io

combined effort as leveldesigner as short ego boosting video as i was argueing with a programmer that level design is as important as scripting, and in the end all parts that form to a game, .... 

-X-ScornGames: The Revenge

And i was Faschinated you could creat Your very owm worlds i mean you could creat everything the Limit was only Your Imagination....i was 14 and finally fozund a German Guide in include Most stuff you needed to create a Proper Mal, and after2 to 5 Sears i was hosted at the biggest utsite there was called planetunreal i mean all Mappers that Had a Name we're there and so Level Design was my First Love and whatever amyone might think of my Games, IAM an Artist ans nothing but that, i Made sooo much Maps and of call myself pro in this very category, thou id never Call myself progamedev and honestly i wouldnt want to be i fozund my DARK Corner within DIY, i mean i am Artist ans No AAA Dev crowd creating sometbing ID rather call playtic, polisged and Just Made to earn Money and while you might argue that ppl neeed to Live and eat that very true but Here the amount is Just Too High its Like Popmusic, hollywood movied this Money These ppl have is Missing somewhere Else ppl still  starve and die or getting in der way of some dirty Business, No i dont mean only drugs, i mean the 25 biggest companies which make for Most of pollution and i mean every Kind you can think, thats was i reject the free market and im disguested by this hell Unleashed by Economis....

but back to the topic, i tell ppl after ive released a game carefully tested by nme, they can comment on found bugs, so i can fix them, but bugs, and feedback can be very different,....becasue personal preferences of a tester are you are ALLOWED to reject....becasue its one person you know and if you ask 10 ppl, and all say something different, who is right ? lol 

further down the road the way you test your games changes within your possibilites, if you have a team or something orreleasing on steam, you might want to ask ppl, best are ppl that are experienced, who play games and like it and most of all understand that their personal opinion aint a straight forward truth so they mighht be gving you reciommendations or what you could do to avoid something and they dont argue like most ppl do "this is shit, this is ugly" or "you should do...." rather they keep a polite even friendly behaviour and understand that this is not about them or THEM VS THE DEV, rather its to supporting the game, the dev and not according to any egobased stuff...

haha ive made a rant-post about it: X-ScornGames on Game Jolt: "My thoughts and attitude towards game-testing, thou ive got carried..."

https://copilot.microsoft.com/labs/experiments/3d-generations/

would be a cheap solution, it f*cks up most stuff, but its unlimited and has shown astonishing results when i created a stylized kinda model

but if you want to go a bit deeper id recommend https://www.3daistudio.com/  as it features more different 3dais within this one, and hunyuan 3.1 which is still beta males wonderful lowpoly models, but it alsod dpends on your approch, becasue you either can created a 3d model from an image or text, i recommend images, at least i ffeelt more comfortable with, also this features image gneration ais, where you theorethically cerate an image of your "text prompt" but imo its rpetty straight forward :)

Haven fun trying it out.....oh and if want to know more or something special about these methods, id be happy to support your journey into AI :D

Haha thats very true, thou Ironically noone ist openly admitimg to so so ....haha Humans rather, Fight or try to reject New inventions...but the Problem is admitimg to sometbing you Like and love whille Acceptng without conflict that Humans luckily are allowe to do this within the legal Framework of the l Aktion, but we  reject the New Wave which will eventually End in conflict, but acceptance without having the Same is the only Your way to find a compromise ...that the Democratic System Most of uns live, the other way ist the way of Hitler and to Put it clear dictatorship

In the End its a simple question: accepting the humanrights Like freewill and freespeech or forcing ppl to follow  YOUR WILL...

That is a hell of an Expansion, absolutely cool and ill buy it once my Bank Account isnt a negative value anymore! Congratuation on your First product thats straight awesome, keep it Up Dude! i left a follow looking forward to more cool stuff you May Release in the Future :)

hey, there if you want you can grab whatever assets you want and use them in your game as you wish or change them to your likings, you can also sell them game, the only thing id ask in return is adding this lind to your credits:

Assets originally created by -X-ScornGames @ ('westream.at/xx696' & 'xx696.itch.io')

the 900+ assets for any indie-dev comrade who want to use them @ https://sketchfab.com/XX-XX

looks very cool, great work. left a follow and will give it a try for sure <3 best luck for your game and im  sure it will do great :)

Best Regard, Love and Peace <3

Nice, but i recommend you keep that to yourself as it will eventually End in ppl attacking or aviding you right away ppl arent big Fans of freespeech and freewill, They dont Care about your Reasons, for your behaviour,   haha May ignorance be Bliss 

yay got one, thank you so much for giving away free copies, left a follow, and it looks awesome, sci-fi is one of my favourite genres.....keep it up <<3

glad to hear that <3, oh and btw, do you have other portfolios, beside itch as well, honestly i dint found anything really usefule beside  -X-ScornGames (@-X-ScornGames) - Game Jolt, which obviously is also behind itch, but hey itch is the  DIY_INDIE -pushback in the face of any AAA Company/Publisher, holding dear the true core of legendary games like quake, unreal tournament, etc which was not beeing the definition of a product, like hollywood movies, chart music, badically all that sucks damn hard, no the core was ART, and itch hold this principle high above  any other site known to me <3 anyway what i ment, is that gamejolt has one advantage over itch, as it feartures a direct chat (like discord) for befriended devs, as well as the possibilty to arrange your own"message-board" which could be useful if you we would want to deepen the  co-operation <3

sorry got carried away a bit, well ive found 2s-decoartion, that actuallly could fit the theme of your game....feel free to apply any changes as needed, if you like this one, i could look for more, .....just tell me

ive remixed  two  sprites for you, hope you can use em in some way:
