I am not exactly an indie dev (and I'd rather mod my ideas rather than do an entire game)
But I have been having these ideas lately about "vocational" types of games and such. Aka various job simulators, yeah. I am curious about maaany fields of work and I'd love to experience them in a form of a videogame at least, which imo has the potential to be an extremely educational format for this.

>a realistic factory manager simulator
>a realistic military simulator - from intelligence to piloting drones to rocket management to stormtrooping
>a simulator of laying down internet cables across the world (i am just curious how its done lol)
>being head of economics manager simulator (ie changing interest rates etc, trying to stay afloat)

Now obviously this is an already existing genre so there's probably a lot of stuff like these.
One of the most memorable of these for me was an "economic strategy game" from my childhood where you needed to manage wildlife conservation policies to upkeep the population of wild leopards in the Far East. The devs behind this game even said they will implement the best strategies irl. You had to manage policies towards feeding the prey animals in places where leopards live, funding animal sanctuaries, actually asking for funding period, managing policies against poachers, doing interviews and persuading famous people to your cause, etc etc. It's actually quite hard and I still can't understand how to win.
Now, the leopard population did improve nowadays since 2007 when the game was released or so… So maybe this worked.
Pic related, "Save the leopard" or Спасти леопарда. Maybe this is a good target for reverse engineering for the purposes of translation but it seems like a very hard project.

Btw, I keep seeing that people are making actual computers in Terraria and Minecraft. This is has the potential to be very educational, so maybe like a mod with directions on how to do this. (a map with all the resources free and available from the start)

I think there already are programs that let you model computers, right? I wonder what else there is to Terraria and Minecraft. Also maybe there could be a chapter on ACE or something.

I hope this is okay to post as it's related. I started making an indi game based off my story the Wooden Prince. I am trying to be an author and also got into making this. :)

The hardest part is making the character art.

The gender ratio in STEM fields correlates with the gender ratio of autism. And transgenderism.

I'm making my own game but I larp as a man online to avoid harassment

I don't even know how to pay for it. The last time I tried it took me 30 minutes of work, I had to change the password of my email box because I forgot what it was, it requested a phone number for no reason and wouldn't accept free burners and I decided to accept that they won the fight.
2 minutes latter I was downloading it. No question asked.
This isn't about money.

I sometime have to kill it do do a thing but otherwise it can run on the background. We are trying to live in a society.

Yes. But I have lost two external hds of pirated media and my own artwork. I wish I could sue.

>>38353
I would but my storage would die a grisly death, my Spotify local files are already slowly killing it

I used to pirate obscure movies I otherwise wouldn't have access to.

These days I'm a payfag. I do use youtube to listen to music.

Piracy is based but emulators are so hard. I'm trying to get into Resident Evil and I wanna play the classic games before the remakes so I'm trying to get emulators to work but you need to download so much shit for them and it turns out I need Windows 11 even though I've heard Windows 11 sucks so ugh

You haven't watched the X files or Fringe? Or have you? Hooo boy

>>39840
Not miniseries but you need to watch them. Especially X files.

>>39841
>>39840
I watched X-files growing up, I've actually been meaning to rewatch it because as a child it made me a bit scared and I didn't understand all of it… Thank you for mentioning it, I'll definitely rewatch it this year

It makes my head hurt

>>39488
>>39489
Yes, it's Kanako from Touhou
I guess her being a snake is more of a pun, I think she's more like Python because she derives her following by being trendy and being all things to all people

>>39638
Not to defend Hungarian notation, but Linus is generally an incompetent moron who is worshipped by midwits for his loud opinions. He's a posterboy for Linux and Git, nothing else; he hasn't written a single line of modern Linux or Git.

Trying to extract resource files (images, etc) from the source now. Seems easy, I just followed what https://misthi0s.dev/posts/2026-02-25-extract-resource-ghidra/ said and you basically just export the resources from the label folder in symbol tree. Then you export that as a program and change the file extension to the correct one. That is provided nothing is encrypted or whatever.

Interesting how the resource hacker couldn't find this for some reason, nor is there an open source resource hacker on github. Maybe I should make my own idk.

I fixed some of the old stuff, found some new functions to hook, and now I want to see how feasible it would be to replace images with my own.

C# and JavaScript for work (webdev please kill me). For light personal stuff I use Python and for heavier personal stuff C#. I've dabbled in a few other languages like Java and Rust. Tried making games a few times but always fell off for one reason or another. Hard to have fun when you do the same thing for work.

>>39465
Agreed. Been doing webdev for 8 years now and it's all the same shit no matter where you go. I'm so fucking tired of it but at this point I can't branch out into anything else without starting from zero.

I don't care as long as I find the character appealing myself.

I don't really care if a character I like is appealing to moids. If I cared about that, I couldn't like so many female characters as most things in life are for made for them. Also they're fictional and I usually don't apply my beliefs when it comes to fiction

>>39250
It's okay, nona. Characters can have awesome or cringe coomer weaboo design and still be cool as fuck at the same time

Just because a product features a character with a large bust doesn't necessarily mean it's aimed at the scrote coomers.

Chracter is Kanade Oe from "Chihayafuru" (anime based from a Josei manga)

>>39472
moids can get off to an extra curvy piece of driftwood. trying to make a character who "doesn't attract the male gaze" is a fool's errand. just make a character who has an actual identity as a person. some women have boobs, that's just how it is. I like Chie in Kaya-chan Isn't Scary.

korra is not a shonen… it's not even an anime

I’m watching jujutsu kaisen and it’s all just shonen tropes over and over

>uh yeah I’m the quirky flawless genius sexyman who will take 50% of the screentime
>I am the mc and I’m also a quirk chungus except I’m also retarded
>any strong character in a battle: omg my opponent is so strong he fucked me so hard in the ass I’m excited

I definitely had some others I noticed but can’t recall em right this instant

This is why Mahou Shoujo is better

>>38922
Such an awesome series. I'd get high during adolescence and cry at the fact that the characters get to explore the world and go on these adventures.

>>38919
for me, it's Rumiko Takahashi

i feel like you and i could be good friends.

0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and CV are the only games worth playing, tbh.

Oh, and Outbreak 1 and 2 as well.

Poor Ashley, she went through all this and didn't even get a dating proposal at the end of RE4, Leon is a little lacking in initiative
One disappointment I had was with Village, they showed very little of the sisters and Mrs. Dimitrescu, I would have liked to have seen more about them

"Relax, beautiful. I said I was sowwrry."
"My name's Steve."
"I was a prisoner on this island, and I'm guessing you're not from Umbrella, either."

I'm yet to see anyone who likes this shit for any reason other than porn every man looks like he's on steroids and every woman looks either 15 or like she has a generic MILF body type.

I only actually know 7 and 8 and those were debatably the only ones worth me caring about because 7 didn't have as much cringe and 8 was fine other than uggo Chris and Lady Dimitrescu being overly thicc even though they apparently just copied older games I didn't play because I didn't care to figure out the fucking play through order. They're super different from the rest but that's not even a bad thing to me

Leon's decent looking I guess until 9 gave him oversized arms and 6 made him unable to shave, he would be best with his 4 hairstyle/face and 2 body type probably, he's already pushing steroid looking status in 4 though I think he had some muscles in 2

i remember getting frustrated after watching future, it was just bad vibes all around, like trauma dumping and eloping kek

Every memory i have of this show is demented. I tried to watch it> I just wanted to punch stephen and most of the characters. Why do we have to look at such hideous characters in modern times? What happened to making them cute? If I had a chance i would nuke this show 30 miles up trumps asshole. They would both collapse into a blackhole and destroy each other and it would be one of the greatest days to be alive. This show reminds me of the true decline of tv and enshittification.

>>39747
the creator of the show is jewish
traditionally it is banned to portray people in Judaism, but this ban is sometimes dodged through portraying people in form of "ugly" caricatures
that spread out culturally even for those who are not religious, and as a result we have this

>>39768
bullshit

Like half the cast turned out to be MAGA kek. Then again didn't they give Steven a MAGA uncle and defend him? Not very progressive there crewniverse

Why anons claim to hate roid apes and gym bros but like Leon, even in 2 where people portray him as super scrawny for some reason (he really wasn't) he was pretty buff. And people act like he was only walled in 9 even though he's looked similar since RE 6? After RE 4 he looked pretty generic honestly

>>39793
Leon is not a roid ape though, that's Chris you're thinking about.

>>39802
He kinda is in RE 9. 2 and 4 maybe not but even then in 4 it seemed like his muscles were too big for his shirt for some reason, not to the cringe extent of 9 but still

Admittedly I'm mostly into thin men but Leon is kinda the exception, he has some fanart or cosplay where he doesn't have abs but a very well defined torso which the superior interpretation imo. He looks fat in 6 and the movies honestly and I don't know why they thought Avan Jogia looked anything like him
