At least with Andrew Hussie his webcomic had mini flash game like elements and he had a background in inventing some medical equipment so he could do some stuff.
I had no idea Andrew Hussie invented some medical equipment. What exactly did he invent?
I think I vaguely remember hearing about medical software but I don’t know how that guy can confirm that without a source. Hussie’s dad did have a patent for some photoshop plugins though
Someone should invent medical equipment for removing the experience of reading homestuck, as well as torture equipment for Andrew for inventing Homestuck.
Shuddup guy
Nepeta should be in prison!
You deserve the Hague
a device that mutilates the trans penis for xem
hussie goes by they/them now don't forget it
I missed his eboy phase, it was more entertaining than this.
HUSSSSSIE FINISH STARLIGHT CALLIOPE YOU homosexual
I knew Hussie studied computer science but I never knew he developed medical equipment, that's quite neat.
Alterniabound and Openbound were neat, I appreciate them as fun little parts of the comic that you could play, even if they were just little walk and talk simulators.
Pesterquest and Friendsim were kind of boring and really only good as fan service and adding on little bits of lore dumps and world building.
Hiveswap is kinda disappointing. It's essentially just another walk and talk simulator but in the form of a slow, boring point and click adventure game which won't even be finished for another 5 years.
I haven't played Hiveswap yet despite being hyped for it back when it was announced in fricking greenlight (remember those?) for one because I had moved on by the time it released but also I felt like my chains were jerked a bit when after reading a really long comic that by it's format is mostly fricking text with some animations in between and the flashes (that existed to shove worldbuilding in, I believe) Hiveswap was another fricking game where you walk and talk, it was more text and I knew that would be the case but I expect something more, maybe a game that didn't release in parts like Telltale isn't a bankrupted studio and every part comes out every blue moon.
I'm 90% sure the flashes were mainly coded by volunteers since Hussie was always busy making assets and writing, the guy who made the first few flashes (the ones that use the same assets as the comic instead of being Earthbound-like or whatever) said at some point that Hussie was like a fricking machine and no one could keep pace with him so he [the programmer] ended up having to rush shit so he could get it out.
He developed some color theory related software that gets used in medical imaging but on the other hand that could have been Hussie Sr.'s work. It's unclear.
Wrong board?
Oney at least had music making experience as well as fricking around with blender to make 3D models. He has also good connections to help make his game, especially all those newgrounds guys, so he at least is doing well and isnt just being a shitty director sitting in the corner and twiddling his thumbs while everyone else is doing work
As far as I'm aware he's not doing the heap of the programming, he's kinda just telling people what he wants it to be and paying them to make it. But yeah, I know he's made all the music and blender assets for it though. I would assume all the animations for it too.
Anon is mediocre at best with blender
dd and juulz are never gonna realize anything and continue to drain money from their supporters because they like to act all holier than thou but realize they dont have any other profitable skills
At least Dream Daddy came out.
I am not looking forward to Bowlbo
I'm personally looking forward to the Irish simulator. I hope Zach voices the witch.
In fairness to Dave, he's pretty much done everything he can do with FNF artwise especially since they got a shitton of money from the Kickstarter
It's just that Ninjamuffin is gonna take forever and whoever is doing the music is a big ass drama queen so it's just a matter of Dave making sure to tard wrangle them into doing their jobs
What's going on with the music team, what drama?
Dave doesn't do any of the coding, he only does the art. It's Ninja and the other coders that take all day to do what they're supposed to do. He can only do so much.
Kawai is just a bit of a sperg and tends to overract. It's overblown imo.
Pedo allegations
We literally know nothing about the ENA game so we have no clue as to what the scope is; Joel said it was short and I don't see any reason doubt him given he's had a good track record so far. My bet is that it'll be a small point and click game. I just want the soundtrack to be out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-j2LJ0ktHoI
I assume it will just be a playable version of one of his usual videos? Mostly a visual novel with some cutscenes and interactions? Probably won't be longer than 30 minutes total of play, which is good as one of the main issue with indie devs is trying to make something on a scale several times larger than they can handle.
I think it'll be something like a visual novel with
elements reminiscend of those old chatroom games that people like Nexpo bait clicks out of people to talk about shitty creepypastas; in any case I find it really funny how a long video turned into a playable thingy because it got out of hand.
>reminiscend
Yes anon, I'm an ESL, you call it a spelling mistake whereas I refer to it as extra flavour.
I'm not really looking forward to Dream BBQ. I don't like ENA anymore. I used to when it started but it quickly developed an incredibly autistic and annoying fanbase and kinda felt like it was trying way to hard to be weird and out there in the latest instalment of the series. I prefer Hands Up a lot more to be honest, which makes me sad Joel hasn't uploading an animation in a year.
Wan Wan games is completely different from those, like Ding Dong and Julian were working on Trigger Treat before they joined OneyPlays and Ding Dong has always been a coder, neither one of them are prominent internet cartoonists like Julian maybe but he's doing the art assets and animation for the game.
Yet now they just got a publisher and annoying controversy from their own b***hing. Ain’t looking too good.
I thought Phantom Arcade just did the art?
He does, OP is just a dumbass
There's literally video evidence of Oney at least one game jam.
Also Wrong board

>"I don't know how code works"
Wasn't this released while he was well underway for Bowlbo development?
who needs code when you have hackin music
Is this the thread?
I tried.
Any thread is "the thread" if you try hard enough
Wait... didn't the Explosm crew do a lot of games already?
They did a Battle Royale called The Rapture but that game's basically dead. I don't think they updated it in years.
And their Point and Click Adventure was mildly ok and turned into an Episodic thing.
I think the Rapture game had potential but now that they abandoned it, It'll probably be dead forever
Neither Bowlbo nor Dream BBQ have been in development for that long, you idiots are just impatient. How long do you think games take to make?
Nightmare Cops has been in development for 9 years
>Undertale
>Five Nights at Freddy's
Not long
FNAF is really simple, considering it's one perspective 99.9% of the game. Making a game doesn't take long. Filling it with content and making it last more than 10 minutes is the hard part.
Chris said in an episode that he vastly underestimated how much time and money went into a game. He thought it would only be a few years and a couple thousand dollars. At least the FNF team for all their faults understand the scope and how much time people should expect for the game to come out.
What are (YOU) gonna put out there?
you first, ding dong.
You’ll look for any excuse to not assert yourself or try anything
I have nothing to prove. The homosexual that b***hes about parasocial relationships and wanting to “distance themselves “ from the internet does.
cope and seethe
Where is the game, it's been years and doesn't look that great.
Hopefully all the Dnd stuff I commissioned for my Kuroinu game. I already have the bosses, their stats, 3 custom songs, and battle mats ready. Just need my players to get to them after life events slow down.
My art is still really /beg/ but I really want my first big business foray to be a dating sim game, there's always a market for it and I feel like my character designs will be great.
An ARPG, hopefully.
>mandrake
heres a piece of genuine advice, have a nice day right now
What's wrong with mandrake?
its really funny to pretend you dont know, lets all laugh HAHAHAHAHAHA
bro, it's just a mythical plant creature from folklore. Plus they are in Don't Starve, which is a game I like. I have no idea what your problem with them is.
>theyre in a game i like! they cant be bad!
seriously have a nice day right now and make the world a better place in the only way you will ever be able to
>try’s and fails to move goal posts
Nice try Richard.
I feel like some of the people replying don't have the context of this tweet so here's the beginning.

its not cool but I do draw shitty furry porn
forward my reply to this ding dong fellow
funny he would say that when wan-wan is over 7 years old and not ONE fricking game is out
Who are all of these? I know that fricking Peruvian that disappeared to make an ENA game and Andrw Hussie and the one cyanidesomething guy who stopped making original videos last I checked, who are the others?
>Andrw Hussie
not everuone is a master speller like you
You just want to bash e-celebs in this thread, don't you?
Got to reddit.
I love Homestuck. Even after Act 6, the epilogues, and HS^2. It is my favorite media franchise.
Act 6 wasn't THAT bad, sure the post-scratch kids aren't that interesting, the character development (and regressing said development) during the ship/meteor 3 years thing is mostly shit, Dirk and his auto-responder get into walls of orange and red way too fricking often, only 2 of the 12 Beforan trolls are relevant to the story and the other 10 serve as satires that only get development during the Openbound and assumptions made by how the reader believes ectobiology and the scratch to work by then, the acts drag around needlessly way too fricking long and way too fricking often, Caliborn and Calliope frick around way too much for the sake of making them likable characters with actual personality traits but it just doesn't fricking work against a large cast of much more developed characters - aside from all of this Act 6 is still just short of being anywhere near as good as Act 5 was. At least it's still better than H^2 but then again any fan adventure with the same concept is better in every single way and those people are actually getting movie to put out less updates than Andrew Hussie did back when he did everything by himself.
Where is it Chris
>good buddy
I can't believe Jeff finally agreed to bounce up and down on Chris' wiener with his butthole
it'll be out when it's out.
and we like that. great work ethic
TAKE HIS COAT
Games take a long time to make so people say they shouldn’t announce them or anything until there’s a short time before it comes out, but then when they don’t tell people about their projects people think they don’t do anything and are lazy hasbins while they’re trying to work on a project in secret. It seems like a bit of a paradox to me
What is Chris involved with?
He's been making a Toomba ripoff for the past five years. He's been open with saying "awshit this is actually pretty hard, it's gonna take twice as long"
I miss deathbulge!
