@Aetous I use a fork of SimpleJson for almost all my json serialization needs: github.com/darktable/SimpleJSO

You’ll need to create your own de/serialization methods, and it’ll be slower than jsonutility, but you won’t have to hack around quirks.

@prsaseta This looks like Time Pilot and Vampire Survivors had a baby. Very cool.

One week until my game hits Steam, so here's a zero-budget trailer that contains my sales pitch:

The tl;dw is that this is a chill game for people who don't have much time to spare but love reading a good story. If you fit this description, I encourage you to wishlist it.

Hey, all #GameDev peeps, no matter if you use #UnrealEngine, the other one starting with "U", or #godot #GodotEngine - JetBrains RIDER is now FREE for personal/non-commercial use! 😀

(IMHO it's the bestest IDE you could use.)

Unity 6 is out! However, I’d consider Unity 6.0 more of a beta release. It still contains major bugs related to wheel colliders, physics, and the editor UI text (pics and links below). These issues may (or may not) be fixed during the 6.0 lifecycle, so I can’t guarantee that Vehicle Physics packages will work 100% on Unity 6.0 yet.

@Vibrance I will be so mad if this is AI generated.

There isn't actually anything surprising in here if you've worked through the problem of implementing multiplayer for real-time turn-based games (saying it's impossible is one of the reasons I've never had much respect for Ryan Clark), but Adrian Zefyang's half-hour talk about building the netcode for NecroDancer's on-line co-op is a brilliantly clear walkthrough of the difficulties involved. Great talk, great visuals.

Hey fellow gamedevs! Even if you don't have any of your games on Steam, make sure to search games or terms your game might have in SteamDB every now and then.

My free game was uploaded to Steam by some completely random person some time ago. SteamDB helped me to find it, then I reported it to Steam and they took it down pretty quickly. Like in a day or two.

I assume this kind of thing happens often, but it's good to do a regular check for all of your games if someone is trying to steal your stuff.

Also, NaughtyAttributes is awesome for quickly adding buttons and conditional fields to inspectors.
