Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

I had some experience with game development since 2017. As a GDevelop 5 user, I started watching some videos on the official GDevelop channel in my free time. I came across two videos, one about "Wave Defense" (which isn’t even a real genre) and another about a roguelike game project.

The thumbnails were so similar that I thought they were the same project. When I posted about Sheris Dungeon on my X profile: @sketBR, I realized my game had nothing to do with a roguelike. After sending a gameplay video of Sheris Dungeon to my younger cousin living in the same country, she said it was a tower defense game. I was stubborn and thought it was a roguelike.

Currently, on X, my game usually gets 200 or more views per post. The secret is to keep going and be creative.

The game is hosted on Newgrounds with medals and a leaderboard for those who score high points. So, have fun with my game full of dopamine and action!

It would super help if there was any direction on what keys do what. I never figured out the second thing youre supposed to drop.

Not to be arrogant, but the game description has the game controls, if it's out of order, let me know. Thanks a lot for the feedback

Thats not arrogant. I just didn't scroll down. Thanks!

I stupidly assumed the controls would pop up in game. I appreciate you being polite about it.
