In this video I am doing some changes to my own game. These changes are something like adding sword combat, adding particles and visual buffs, repairing inventory and crafting table. This video also contains discussion about my oncoming challenge video where I do a coding challenge. Please give feedback about your experience a s a viewer! And remember to tell me why you liked or didn’t like the video! Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y71h5Vmly-8&t=6s
The video pace feels way too slow and doesnt make the progress interesting to watch. I would reccomend you to watch this as a good reference for the pace you should aim to achieve at your videos. The AI voice cannot compare to how you can retale what you did about the project. Think of it like you’re presenting your work to your friends.
On the visual part, avoid showing the developer UI and show what you have done from the perspective of a player wanting to try the game. I’ve used the video in question becuase, it mostly has footage from the game itself and a viewer with no experience in development at all can tell what work has been done outright. You’re not doing a development tutorial after all.
If you’re trying to get more onto your thought process behind the development, show your thought process visually, not the development UI itself. For reference, i think this video executes this idea very well.
I have no interest in continuing after the first few minutes. Slow, clumsy dialogue (with an AI voice, no less) and you explain nothing. Why add subway surfers? You’ve already got an “avatar” character you could draw in different poses and “animate” to act like talking. That would be far more engaging than this.
Dialogue is soo slow… there’s like… 2 minutes of actual content there… and what’s with the subway surfers intermission? x3 it’s not even centered to the middle of the screen either
Video feels low effort and that slow AI voice is not something that you would use in a devlog.
This guy is throwing this on every gaming community. If this doesn’t get pulled imma do the same thing /s
His last post on the community was 18 days ago. Can hardly be called spam.
I did not check the content of the video yet, but seem to be game related.So tell me, why should I remove it ?
Something about it seems just so weirdly self-promotional, instead of “normal” engagement with the community. I never pay attention to usernames but I have noticed this kind of content from the guy on this community several times, and just checked his posts and it’s all YouTube promotion (although I admit the ones mentioning “Dani” might not be his, not 100% sure). No regular engagement with the community as just another gamer. I suspect that’s why the community does not seem to generally like these posts. It is why I certainly don’t. The vibes I get from the posts are way less “hey I am a game dev, I’d love some feedback on my game!” and more “SMASH that subscribe button” but from an English language learner who has not learned the tricks of clickbait titles and the ways people grow those channels, so instead we get these constant posts for their YouTube on Lemmy. Of course, my judgment could be off, I’m certainly not actually clicking the videos to confirm whether my suspicions are right or wrong. For all I know that video has a misleading title and is a tutorial on how to paint a ceiling.
However, it is on topic and I don’t make the rules, and there’s something to be said for unpopular stuff still being allowed. I’d personally want this gone as the self-promotion type of spam but hey, not my community, and I could have judged them wrong.
I agree 100%
Just seems more like “give my video views and feedback” and less about having a gaming related discussion
do it you will get views but don’t expect getting any subscribers
