I made a game a few years ago called Coffee Clicker that got viral and stolen by dozens of sites. My original page: http://www.kongregate.com/games/haroldkrell/coffee-clicker Sites that used my game without permission: http://www.freeworldgroup.com/g/i/coffee-clicker.htm https://www.y05.com/games/Coffee_Clicker/ http://www.minijuegos.com/juego/coffee-clicker Personally, I've never really done anything about taking my game down from these sites since I never really made it to make money in the first place, but I guess if I did have to do something about it, I would contact the hosting site and ask them to remove it since I was the original creator. Otherwise, just take this as a sign that your game is genuinely getting "internet popular".

blastron posted:I don't actually know what Real Game Dev Lesson this is supposed to teach in the era of day-0 patches. Yeah agreeing with what has been said before, this jam is legit more stressful than deploying to production at work. I'm surprised Loterķa was not a top pick for this jam but that's neither here nor there. My own coding skills aside, which I'll freely admit are probably poo poo, I hope that all games will be considered for all categories. I'd feel like a loving monster if Chernabog's breathtakingly amazing art weren't taken into consideration for the "style" category in the jam.

Played through. No wonder they stole it, this was great. You should absolutely submit this to Kongregate and Newgrounds, dude. It would be super popular. If you're selfless, you could always donate the profits back to the jam or whatever too! (but if I were you I'd just take the money and run, haha)

What you should do is always make sure to include a link to the official version of the game. Frustrating their users with a broken game may be emotionally satisfying, but stealing their users in return is even better

Echoing that sometimes pursuing them is not always the best option. Sometimes it is, but it's not always cost effective to do so. Key takeaway is to make sure your game has plenty of self-identification (in the splash screen, title, watermarks, credits, etc.) so that even if you get unauthorized rehosting, you still get the "credit" as it were.

This is my first time following a SA game jam as a spectator.. will the Gong Show stuff get stored on the Awful Jams Youtube channel at some point? On Twitch I can apparently only see the last broadcast, not all of them. And live is unfortunately not an option for me due to time difference.

If I were to be submitting updated builds of my 2 gigabyte UE4 monstrosity every other day, I'm sure that would cause serious issues for someone's wallet. It's this and the fact that submission is meant to be the very last thing you do in the jam after testing your final build. It's important to budget the time for preparing and testing a final build We're bouncing around some ideas on making this a teeny tiny bit more lenient for next year. Winter Jam will have 2 chances outright because it's the ~chill~ jam.

I would've liked more of a battle system or something to better complement the narration, but sounds like you had development problems. Though, on second thought, Pokemon does have that kind of labyrinthine, nook and cranny thing, so that part is pretty accurate! The Pokemon silhouettes were strong and I thought the in-jokes hit much more than they missed.

Doom Goon posted:First impression: Die wouldn't stop spinning, and then I took pills and couldn't click anything. Second try: Did I just win or lose? I think there should've been some better feedback (and a tutorial, as it took me awhile to remember how craps works). Also, it was over really fast and I don't think I understood the story or the cliffhanger? Besides that, while I think there could've been better interaction since it's used (object manipulation besides single-clicking, for example), I'm fairly impressed with the 3D and how well it ran. I don't know if it's your first game or anything, but I'd be excited to see what else you can do in later jams, actually! Also, just read you plan to do just that, so that's awesome. Oh, finally, I really liked how you set up the "title screen" a lot. Hey, thanks for playing! That die spinning bug is weird, I ran into it once on the last weekend and didn't have time to diagnose it. (I think one of the table components is too thin for the physics engine) There was supposed to be more tutorials via labels on the table, but that was dropped in the rush to get the build out. I'll just say that about halfway through the month, I realized the gameplay wasn't really going to be fun. I decided to just focus on the transitions and story (phone, animations, ect), and didn't implement the other minigames I originally planned. The story is kinda stilted because I'm a terrible writer, I really didn't think much about how it would fit the theme. This is my third game jam, and my first 3D game. It was definitely a fun thing to build even if it didn't really come together as a game. I'm already working on another jam right now, and the experience I picked up here has made it so much easier to get into it.

Doom Goon posted:Fun little 2D platformer that has a nice length to it. Really neat that it was done in UE4! Quite a bit to like about this game (nice job with the parallax!), and probably one of the better ones in terms of dev logs and listening to feedback. I must be immune to that motion stuff because I kind of thought there wasn't enough of it (though listening to others I know I'm in the minority!). Only criticism I can think of is art-wise it seemed a little barren and the length seemed maybe too short and could've used some more puzzles based around its core mechanic (it really shines in level 2). Nice job! Definitely agree on level 2 being the most interesting part; I would've loved to have a new mechanic in level 3 but I ran out of time. I was impressed with the blueprint system in UE4, despite some headaches.

So since we've had trouble finishing the 3d version, introducing the most delayed game of the game jam: Games not for grandpa.  Download here, windows only: https://originalcontentgaming.itch.io/prototype?secret=QoAzoRU4e2dvJsXWFYbpxJv1lmY Solve puzzles your kids left lying around! Chuckle! Be driven mad by the soundtrack! It's all yours, in its exact judge form, right here. --- Warning, Incoming game theme defense, view unwisely at your own peril: In its theme defense, its actually literally a game a grandpa could play: No twitch controls, no timer, no fail states, gradual difficulty curve with alternate paths for when you get stuck. But yeah not the strongest themed game of the jam that's for sure. Rob Filter fucked around with this message at 11:02 on Aug 11, 2016 |

Harold Krell posted:Lou-ny Balloon-y Goes Floatin' 'Round Town This game was awesome, by the way. Really well polished. My only complaint was that their weren't enough checkpoints, especially for the later levels where electricity starts instant killing you, and that a few of the bosses were somewhat trivial. Aside from that, fantastic. Alot of the level design was really great. My favorite bit was the electricity stage, but especially the two walls of electricity vertically in the sky. "well, this doesn't seem to bad - wait oh poo poo balloon dudes". You should definitely consider expanding on this. edit: Oh, one more thing I remembered. When I was doing the wind level with the bird final boss, I didn't understand the mechanic of jumping on things giving you foward momentum for the entire zone, right up until the bird boss when I actually learned it. It makes me think the bird boss would be a good precursor to the wind level, rather than its end - the bird is the best tutorial for dealing with wind Afal posted:Game based on Results to a Vote people had Your games are consistently hilarious and the first thing I download every jam. Gunzil posted:Yosemite Birding: It's a Snap! This was great.. The polish was great. The gameplay was great. The characterization of the two protagonists was especially great. My one problem is that the breathing mini-game detracted from the core loop - I would be really enjoying snapping birds, but then I would have to take a break from that to breath. Also, some of the later levels required a little to many snaps. But, these are minor quibbles. I enjoyed the poo poo out of this game. Great job! Prediction: This game will win the jam.

I really appreciated your post-mortem since I'm trying to grok audio for games. Thanks! I haven't played your game yet but I'm gonna get to it when I get home! (trying to play all the ones made by posters in this thread before the stream tomorrow!) Screaming Color, the super talented guy who has done the music for every Team Dogpit game to date, made album versions of the tracks he did for Loterķa available for download here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4WQZW-Y-3RJbGs3MnhJNGxfVlE I showed him everything everyone has said about his music here and in the twitch chat and he was thrilled. Thanks everybody! E: Doom Goon posted:card battle critique Thanks for the thoughtful feedback! That's legit very helpful. Consistently I've gotten the same kind of critique on the overworld mechanics/story but I've been getting very mixed feedback here and from people I've shown the game IRL on the card battle component. I've basically heard it's way too hard and that it's way too easy. The game as-designed can be played IRL with two actual Loterķa decks ($1 to $4 at your local Mexican grocery) and a cheat sheet for the card abilities, and in fact this was how we playtested the game early on and honed in on the mechanics we thought were most fun.  (using a hand-drawn tabla here as the set didn't have two tablas that used the same 20 cards but in different configurations) Perhaps unsurprisingly, most of the people who have told me the card battles are fine or too easy were already familiar with Loterķa so they didn't have any trouble with the victory patterns, why placing a card on your own board might also put a marker on your opponent's, and so on. For this reason I think that the core game itself is solid, but the huge issue was properly communicating to the player the rules, the mechanics, what to do, etc. General plan for improvement:

So, I was curious about how many downloads there were of my game and I found out that itch.io tracks referrals and downloads(dropbox doesn't). The page had a bunch of referrals from some website and it turns out that somebody wrote a tiny little article about my game with what might be one of the worst made gifs of all time. I've been looking around for mentions of other games in the jam since then. There's a handful of playthroughs on youtube for That Pokeyman Thing Your Grandkids Are Into including one with over 20,000 views that's impossible for me to watch more than 2 seconds of because holy poo poo that guy. He got his description of the game from a website called Free Game Planet who wrote up a nice little summary. I found several playthroughs on Youtube of Old Man's Drive that are not very good including one guy who does characters for some reason. I'll keep snooping around the internet later to see if I find anything.

Let me tell you it's a pain to slog through ~50 games and write at least one word about them. I'm sorry that this round of "words about videogames" sound a little bit like I'm getting bored of doing this. --- Games with no public build as far as I can tell: Sorry honey, I never told you I was Mafia; Wet Grandpa; 7 to heaven; Lawn Care Simulator; Zombie TD Gone Grandpa Gone - Short stealthy game but by gum was that annoying to get through. Some checkpoints as the judges mentioned in the gong show would have been incredibly helpful here. Old Men Playing to Rule the World - I don't know how to play craps, or how to play roulette craps, but sure I'll try gambling randomly and not understanding what's going on. It was annoying that I could put chips ON a space but not OFF for some reason. If there was anything that was harder to follow than how the game worked it was definitely the plot. Sneaking Mission - Another stealth game that could have benifited from checkpoints. Get Off My Lawn!!! - Nice simple game, but jumps to ridiculous levels really quickly. You Were Promised A Jetpack - This game is stupid. I love it but it's stupid. Grumpy Grandpa in the Big Breakout - gently caress this self extracting zip exe. Also gently caress all the games this year being stealth games. gently caress everything. No Waluigi. Grandpa's Great Escape - Ok, when it comes to packaging, this does what everyone who has a unity game does and I'm putting this in bold so that people can notice this: they don't put the game in its own directory. Like the ritual I have is I download the game from the public link, I open up the zip and then notice that I have to make a new folder to extract everything to. 7-zip (the only reason I'm using this is because some people use rar or .tar.gz) has a hosed up interface (which is probably more windows' fault probably) where when traverse to the "awful_games" folder and then click "New Folder" it creates a folder in the upper directory. This has happned multiple times and I get pissed off every time it happens. Please make sure that the steps I have to take to play your game requires me to barely do anything to play it. Anyway the game, I... I have no idea what I'm supposed to do. Apparently right click is what lets me move characters? I haven't really played Civ in years though so I'm not really sure. I got bored after a few moves? Souvenir - This ran too slow for me to be patient with the walk speed which was also tank controls for some reason? Back in my day - Unreal games seem to run to a crawl when I run them. This is especially hosed up when the tutorial text box pops up, tells you what button you need to press too late to actually press it and takes loving ages to get rid of. Oh by the way the timer was ticking down in the tutorial so you'd fail going to school in the tutorial. Good poo poo. Walking with Gramps - Hey its just like that edutainment game people keep talking about that I have no frame of reference for because in Britain the premier edutainment game for the computer machine was Granny's Garden in which the intro music has been burned into my brain for all eternity. Nearly 50 entries and there isn't a Granny's Garden (but with a grandpa instead) game? This is a disgrace. Retirement Manager - Could do with some better pacing like the "get off my lawn game" because stuff gets real overwhelming really quickly. RIP, old man - Hold down enter simulator. This was my review. Grandpa GO - *starts game* *fails at the first hurdle* well, gently caress this. *closes tab* Grandpa Gets His Groove - Wouldn't run. Ennui - This game made it difficult to tell what was interactable or what was the objective or goal. The Lawn - I like this but holy poo poo my computer doesn't like Unreal games for some reason so this is yet another game I didn't get to play properly. Chip it in golf - One of the nicest thing about desert golf is that you can take as many strokes as you want and it will never judge you. You can play however you want. This is similar. Cool. Granpappa - I love this. It does suffer from the problems other rhythm games have, but I would definitely like to play more of this. It was short, and I don't think you can ever be completely wrong with it (which I suppose is fine for a jam game). Grandpa Manager - I couldn't buy things. What the gently caress. I have money but I can't give money to Christopher's party or to buy him some gear for his football career. There wasn't much to do other than the green days. Also, sucks that the real enemy of this game was capitalism. PUNCH FI6HT - ALIVE AND KICKING - Mac Only. Story Time with Grampum Peepmpop - This was funny. A good gongshow game but also a fairly decent jam game in of itself. I couldn't tell what was the difference between the different grandpa rankings though (what's the difference between a green grandpa pikachorp and a grandpa elsa?). Games not for Grandpa - Got to the end. Expected pee jar. There was no pee jar. Disappointed. Great puzzles although I'm sure in one section I was getting it right but it wasn't letting me past (it was a lock one... I'm guessing all the locks should be "unlocked" for a puzzle which was why I was getting it "wrong" before?). Could have had some better ambient music. --- Hmm I think that's it. Please let me know if I've missed yours (I did miss one last year and no one called me out on it). I'll get on to the winners of the bounty later on.

Afal posted:. The game was packaged as a self extracting exe because 7zip cut the size down by over a third, I don't expect people to have 7zip (you even complain about it on an other game), and my hosting is space and bandwidth limited.

Not going back and quoting all of the positive comments about it, I'm very grateful to anyone who played, and have been following along! The stream was definitely correct, it needed some kind of boss encounter, and it's very easy to get into a spot where it's impossible to lose once you get used to the systems well enough. Still, given how busy I was in July, I'm just glad I managed to get something that functioned as a game out the door as a solo project.

quote:gently caress everything. No Waluigi. My game has a Waluigi knock-off. Go back to the train station when you can move freely in chapter one. It's there and voice acted like everything else in the game.

Giggs posted:I've been looking around for mentions of other games in the jam since then. There's a handful of playthroughs on youtube for That Pokeyman Thing Your Grandkids Are Into including one with over 20,000 views that's impossible for me to watch more than 2 seconds of because holy poo poo that guy. He got his description of the game from a website called Free Game Planet who wrote up a nice little summary. Almost as surreal (and this is probably a point of interest re: effective marketing) - Google Analytics tells me that my game has received approximately ~1 new user referral from Youtube.

Afal posted:Let me tell you it's a pain to slog through ~50 games and write at least one word about them. I'm sorry that this round of "words about videogames" sound a little bit like I'm getting bored of doing this. Did you get a chance to play Uphill Both Ways? Appreciate the feedback. Also, I've decided on my bounty winner... Mo_Steel posted:
Congratulations to WrathofBlade! "That Pokeyman Thing Your Grandkids Are Into" gave me a bunch of laughs; it's well put together, a fun take on the theme, and that poor Magikarp analog had me almost dying. I've sent you a PM with the links to the bundles. Mo_Steel fucked around with this message at 05:17 on Aug 12, 2016 |
