Under pressure ๐Ÿ“Œ

Is very stressful today, too much pressure. I feel like Joel.

I thought with consoles heavy bureaucracy and response time. But now in Steam there are tens of thousands of games every year. Support response time has increased many times

@sku_te It seems to me that now many questions with the support service have become longer in time due to the load on them

I love programming...

I've been doing it for 20 years, but every time there is a moment when you come across a bunch of code that you wrote a long time ago and you don't want to touch it anymore so as not to break it, and you look for a solution for half a day, and then you add one line and everything is fine

:unity:

@livingcoder it can't be covered with unit tests, it's about gamedev, it's a set of logic that I didn't lay down because there were no situations of the behavior of some objects and interaction with others... it is impossible to describe everything, even to think through the situations, until you face it in the game itself

maybe i'm wrong...๐Ÿ‘ฝ

in the Erra: Exordium demo such enemy barrel with fuel did not damage other enemies, it's my fault... fixed the situation, it will work in the game

Theory about marketing agents on reddit ๐Ÿ“Œ

After a year of using reddit, this is my conclusion:

there are people, agents, who put a minus on the post rating so that you do not advance higher. It can be other developers, or paid anti-promo services.

They are afraid that your post will start to gain rank and reduce their views

I see it all the time... not only in my posts. And last year there was an offer from such an agent

@TonyNyberg The most toxic reddit community is IndieGaming. There you can see such an effect from the agents very quickly ๐Ÿคช

I made a lot of GIFs about my game Erra: Exordium, and it was useful, because looking at them frame by frame, I saw a lot of bugs that I had not noticed before

My advice to you, in addition to testing, shoot videos of your games and watch them in slow motion
