Anyone playing this? What are your favorite paths? How well do you think it represents leftist politics or politics in general? I'm currently trying the socialism through reforms path (with a guide since I'm bad).

it brings me no pleasure to announce this, but it's peak. the furry twink has done it again. total tumblr teen victory. i can't sleep at night and my life is irrevocably changed.

Operation Deep Sneed edition

Made a new thread since the other one is full. You know the drill folks, gather here to discuss and/or complain about Hearts of Iron 4 and all the alt history mods that make the game relevant. From green natpops to sicko mode Savinkov we've got a lot of exciting stuff coming in the next Kaiserreich update, one which will make the LKMT look like pre-rework Germany by comparison. But dont worry TNOomers, you're getting some new content too! After a year and a half and three focus trees that only last for four years, we finally have something new and that's…

…three years of fucking Antarctica

Didn't see a thread on here so I am making one for the commie strategy and simulation games produced by the postsoviet developers nostalgames (formerly known as kremlingames) https://nostal.games/
In honor of the new game which is to be released in 9 hours after time of writing https://store.steampowered.com/app/1922740/Crisis_in_the_Kremlin_The_Cold_War/

Is Balloons Tower Defense the ultimate leftist game?:

>play as a group of monkeys (minorities) who use guerilla tactics (throwing darts from the sides of the pathways) to stop invading balloons (imperialists)

>purchase a wide variety of units such as ninjas, wizards and super monkeys (multiculturalism)

>no matter how many balloons you pop, there will always be more that come (the game is a neo-liberal forever war)

>You can also use cheat codes to unlock infinite money (achieving real communism)

What do you guys think? Is Ninja kiwi keyed?

So i dont have much money just the minimum wage, i gotta buy food, meds for both me and my sister and theres a lot of expenses. i like to achievment hunt on steam hence why i buy these games but they're getting more expensive each year. should i just start pirating ? i was thinking of buying red dead redemption remastered but its costly as fuck.

and i kinda wanted to know you guys opinions, is it worthless to 100% (platinum) games on pc since most people just use the achievment unlocker thing?

Hello /games/ is there anybody on here that plays World of Warcraft? I'm looking to make new friends to push M+ with. It'd be fun to play with some other lefties.

New Gamedev thread. This is thread is only for people who have deved something. Don't post in this thread if you're just an idea bro who has never deved anything in their life.

The engines:
>Unreal
>Unity
>Godot
>Cocos
>etc.

Go pickup one of these engines and start deving. My advice is don't ever get too caught up with reinventing the wheel if your goal is gamedev. Even people who want to "develop their own engine" are using a million frameworks. If you're developing a 3D game, you're going to use a preexisting graphics engine instead of developing one yourself because that would be pointless. You are not going to improve on the graphics engines developed by 1000s of engineers smarter than yourself. It's a lot of advanced trigonometry, I foolishly bought a graphics programming book when I was young and dumb and overly ambitious. There's no point to it.

So basically every game engine works fundamentally in the exact same way. The only difference might be more in the realm of performance handling, but unless you're like a computer genius, that's not even relevant to you. Unreal gives you full access to the source code. If you're so smart you can decipher it and modify it to your heart's content. I recommend real. I'm no programming whiz, but what actually counts:GAMEPLAY PROGRAMMING is very intuitive. It's very easy. If you can write out the rules for a board game, you could easily write those same rules out in code. That's how simple and intuitive gameplay programming is.
