CHOO CHOO _____________

[Superb Joe]

it's trying too hard. you need to draft it, until it doesn't feel like that.

[Green Gospod]

oi green train, what colorful delights u got for me today?

[Superb Joe]

clearly

[ｂ∀ ｋｋｕｓａ]

kind of sad to pretend to be artsy when you completely missed something in the process...

[ｂ∀ ｋｋｕｓａ]

i'm pretty sure it doesn't look like what you have in your mind since you're limited in your art skill. you don't know how to draw and more so you just go with the (psychedelic or put any other art movement) style to hide a lack of something.

It's like you have Picasso:

he got the skill .   good drawing (Realsim) ---> deconstruction ----> cubism

and you:

no skill.   crap ----> deconstruction ----> crap


(I know you're a troll)

anyway CHOO CHOO _________

you're trying too hard.

[ｂ∀ ｋｋｕｓａ]

before any chance they get to show people they are well learned, qualified

It's a devlog. you choose the moment you want to show the best of your work.

my assumptions were based on your website and twitter. So i guess you're into games like  Vinny - Mealmate?  or
magic-squat-house.

Even though those games looks like weird cheap paint made games. There is an ambience behind and are capable of showing a professional look.

which is not the case here.




Edit:
Oh didn't notice Mealmate was made by you.    well... it's even harder now to understand your new project...

All it takes is one mean comment to get the hate ball rolling.

I see tons of games that are way more vapid and "artsy" that genuinely deserve critique yet get tons of praise.

From what I see so far this game at least looks creative.

What an uninviting community.

[Superb Joe]

i am sorry for being rude, it was mean of me. i don't know anything about art so i'm not talking about that, but i like the colours. but the dialogue, and the manner in which the posts are written, it's very forced and uncomfortable on your part. the "what a computer programmer thinks rap guys talk like" voice is really just sort of embarrassing. find your own voice, or at least one that you inhabit more comfortably. peace be with you brother.

Thanks for calling this out. It is actually a very strong and helpful community here among developers. Sometimes feedback and honesty just gets a little bit more aggressive than is necessary and sometimes things just don't come out right.

I think you will find (if you read more devlogs) that a lot of the developers are very supportive of each other.

@dweedes: Defining what is or isn't a game is like trying to define what is or isn't art. So don't let anyone tell you what you're doing isnt a game. Like Joe said, just make sure whatever voice you give your game is your voice. Best of luck on the game and devlog.

Any info on the planned gameplay? How does it control, what is the player's goal, etc.

[Green Gospod]

This game honestly looks more interesting to me than half the games under DevLogs. It has more crazy, interesting and different art than all of boring pixel games you can find here, plus it looks like it would also have crazy gameplay. Also people have different devlogs and styles. Some have weird structures, some type weird sentences, some roleplay, some have weird fonts for no reason, some act like different people, and so on.

if this game doesn't look like the

, then i'm quitting

[Superb Joe]

FWIW, i wasnt CHOO CHOO _________ ing with any troll intentions. Ill play the hell out of any game featuring an anthropomorphic train thats also skateboarding.

[ｂ∀ ｋｋｕｓａ]

I think you misunderstood what i've been stating since my 3nd post.
There is something completely off in your train , his face as if it was a draft.
And it's just a complete waste of potential and it just looks like you can't draw at all. Which is a feel i didn't get when looking at your previous works.

It's not a matter of

  different devlogs and styles. Some have weird structures, some type weird sentences, some roleplay, some have weird fonts for no reason, some act like different people, and so on.

  but well wathever , good luck in your game.

[Superb Joe]

superjoe thanks for explaining this time - i agree the video is just a bitta bullshit to get a laugh. that's how i really talk though.

i didn't see a video, but in which case, to thine own self be true. to me, this is wonderful.
