Is there one of those good 2d artists who have always wanted to make a videogame but didn't want to learn to code who would like for me to code their game? I don't care about money, I don't even want access to assets (I won't rip you off and sell it on a mobile app store or whatever, though you'd need to export manually and stuff I guess), I just want my name in the credits, and if you drop out halfway through to give me some recordings of the software to put on my portfolio.

I'm an artist myself, but can't code or write. Where do you find likeminded people with the needed skills to start a doujin circle?
>>
>>1733 I wish I knew lol, dicksword is like shouting into the void, it has to be on platforms tied to our real identities but I don't like those. Btw I am OP and I can do all of the programming a doujin team could ever need.

I am an artist but I need a writer or someone with a good sort of direction otherwise I'll just draw anything.

Comfy browser games thread What are some of your favorite browser games? I've been recently playing the Yume Nikki Online Project which turns Yume Nikki and other adjacent mods into an MMO you can play in your browser, really cool!

>>755 it sure would be nice if anons enjoyed a game of mine and shared it on hikari3, unfortunately I am a complete failure who can only create tools of destruction with the wisdom of the ones who lived before me.

this game was a solid 2 hours of fun. It's basically a full metriodvania game https://pinpan.itch.io/meatball-the-mite

Bloodborne on PC Anonymous 05/21/2025 (Wed) 16:08:10 No. 1417 [Reply]
any hikarins tried emulating Bloodborne yet? it works a good 90% of the time and alot of mods work so I've been obsessed with it the past month
>>
>>1417 How's the online? I'm pissed off Sony had switched paid games' online to become paywalled by PS Plus (they're not even handling P2P connections)
>>
>>1715 no online i believe, but i haven't played since july
>>
Kinda remarkable that it's so playable with only a few bugs, but I guess the emulator is being developed specifically for the game. A lot of mods available too.

They bill personnel for those losses. Company loses nothing. You should return it.

DEBATE: ARE EMULATORS GOOD OR BAD? Anonymous 10/06/2025 (Mon) 13:13:09 No. 1694 [Reply]
Are emulators beneficial? Discuss this topic. Do they truly help protect video games, or are they an excuse to pirate games? I look forward to reading your comments.

>>1704 > it's fair to say that most games released since like 1980 aren't playable anymore, if you aren't willing to spend a lot of money and effort on hardware Why? Ain't there at least few emulators for pretty much every retroplatform?
>>
(627.09 KB 2048x1810 1000043078.jpg)
>>1694 Consider an example: Xenoblade Chronicle X re-release happened only because emulating its Wii version gradually created a demand as people had been getting informed of XCX as a cool thing that's a bit unfinished and is a Wii exclusive. Same for countless other games that got out of stock or got delisted with only maybe scalpers reselling them at unfair prices. Especially for platforms that got deprecated and, again, monopolized as a product to be sold by scalpers. Piracy is archivation. Piracy is also free PR for a product, and signals for a market there's demand with the price seen to be a bit too much. That's why you shouldn't pirate kusoge and completely ignore any crappy or corpodemon software. I'm tired of dealing with any malware personally, so I usually just stuck to supporting devs I like or using free software. I was never in the mood to neurotically manage my internet reputation to get into private tracker circles.

>>1706 Wii U*
>>
They are beneficial to me, that's all that matters.
>>
>>1705 sorry, i probably worded it wrong lol. i was talking about playing games on original hardware specifically. yes, there are at least a few emulators for everything, which is exactly my point: emulating is much easier and less costly than playing on original hardware. the convenience is just undeniable, and in either case, no money will ever go to the developers, because they aren't releasing the games anymore.

Which classic Sonic game had the best special stages?
13 posts and 1 image omitted.
>>
>>571 S3&K's special stages are the most memorable for me, but they made me dizzy as a kid.
>>
Of the true classic games, I'm not sure. Each of them obviously have their own hangups, but I think I'd probably give it to Sonic 1. It's got that 'first game in the series' weirdness concentrated pretty heavily in the Special Stages that have only been done since as homages instead ofna true evolution of the concept. If we count Mania as a sort of neo-Classic, then Mania takes it pretty easily. Well crafted, fun, many different ways to play it. It's a great idea that lends itself well to Sonic. If we're count fangames that emulate Classic, then my true personal favorite is Triple Trouble 16-Bit. Racing Fang to the Emerald, having to hit boosts, dodge his attacks, hit him back, all of it incredibly frantic and keeping you on your toes. The Fang races are so great that when I got the last Emerald I was disappointed that I couldn't keep doing them.
>>
Mania if you count it. CD otherwise, especially in the Taxman port.
>>
>>850 >I don't see why not Probably because it didn't come out during the classic era
>>
>>1645 i might be crazy but i feel like the special stages are easier in the original than the taxman version
