I prefer to work alone in almost any case if I can help it.

2018-10-21 05:15:30 UTC  

@Iheanacho I feel ya, I am that way, just more hopeful when it comes to what I can make of my life

2018-10-21 05:16:15 UTC  

Working alone insures that no one else can fuck up the name you've built, perfectly rational

2018-10-21 05:16:36 UTC  

But I am at least wise about it too. I don't just try to take on the entire world by myself. There are somethings I can not do easily on my own such as marketing and PR. I need to hire or exploit outsiders to cover that. But that does not mean I have to enjoy company. I only work with others when strictly necessary and this also incluides MGTOW and other nihilists.

2018-10-21 05:16:42 UTC  

I am on my own side.

2018-10-21 05:16:55 UTC  

Naturally.

2018-10-21 05:17:23 UTC  

I believe in you lot, you guys get it, disagreements or not.

2018-10-21 05:17:36 UTC  

However, if there is something I find can be done alone and bring the same or better resutts than team work, I will eagerly do so. Like programing and designing games.

2018-10-21 05:17:49 UTC  

We are innately selfish and working towards their own means

2018-10-21 05:18:13 UTC  

That is where this game was suppose to come in.

2018-10-21 05:18:16 UTC  

The fact we are here means we are either looking for more, or wanting for more, both are admirable

2018-10-21 05:18:32 UTC  

Or wanting to give more I meant

2018-10-21 05:19:53 UTC  

Even with outsiders, there are risks I still have to carefully prevent or reduce. I unfortunately was struck by one such risk on my game last year in the Fall.If she was working full in a team or touched my art, my game would have completely bombed in progress.

2018-10-21 05:20:21 UTC  

I was just lucky it was voice acting and funding that was butchered. It could have been worse with a team.

2018-10-21 05:20:50 UTC  

Plus at least when i work alone, I can worry less about royalties or dividends to team members or employees.

2018-10-21 05:21:21 UTC  

@Iheanacho Huzzah! What kind of game was it?

2018-10-21 05:21:58 UTC  

Maze Qore.

2018-10-21 05:22:03 UTC  

It is funny the gaming industry themselves are lying to us that it is not easy or necessary to make a game alone anymore, when in fact the opposite proved true. It is much easier to make a game alone now! Thanks to the marketplace!

2018-10-21 05:22:05 UTC  

qore?

2018-10-21 05:22:15 UTC  

Yes.

2018-10-21 05:22:21 UTC  

Meaning?

2018-10-21 05:22:44 UTC  

It's jargon.

2018-10-21 05:22:50 UTC  

Like Hard Qore

2018-10-21 05:23:09 UTC  

Oh, so focused on mazing?

2018-10-21 05:23:13 UTC  

Yes.

2018-10-21 05:23:30 UTC  

Any tertiary game elements on top?

2018-10-21 05:23:39 UTC  

The game is basically a squad-based RPG shooter taking place in a max security prison. Not your normal one either. It is very special and elemental.

2018-10-21 05:23:48 UTC  

FUN!

2018-10-21 05:23:56 UTC  

I like that concept

2018-10-21 05:24:10 UTC  

Ever play Liberal Crime Squad?

2018-10-21 05:25:57 UTC  

- Character relations can be built.
- Every character is expendable, even the unique ones.
- Certain enemies and bosses have personalities and interesting dialogue.
- Secret areas and sector passages that lead to much more secrets, including easter eggs, and even new event sequences.
- Endings vary based on squadron and the prisoner population's survival.

2018-10-21 05:26:36 UTC  

- Oh ho ho so controversial!

2018-10-21 05:27:04 UTC  

And MGTOW references.

2018-10-21 05:27:04 UTC  

@Iheanacho I like! Please continue developing and posting progress here!

2018-10-21 05:27:24 UTC  

aight let me use the restroom and get some more ice before i start the stream

2018-10-21 05:27:50 UTC  

The problem is, the funding disaster left me in more debt. I spent this entire year trying to pay it off. I still have half it left to pay off.

2018-10-21 05:28:00 UTC  

@Happy Humble Hermit See you soon, great job on the TFM stream btw

2018-10-21 05:28:59 UTC  

But from this ordeal, assuming I can get the debt paid off and resume development. It wont go without punishment for the saboteurs. I now got a new idea to add to the secrets of Maze Qore, even if just satirical spite.

2018-10-21 05:29:22 UTC  

Game dev is no joke, beyond what I can do. Good luck @Iheanacho

2018-10-21 05:29:42 UTC  

Eyyy yo

2018-10-21 05:30:11 UTC  

@BlaqShiep From a newbie, heeeeey yooooo
