DyingFetus:Na you go sponsor the budget abi? See your mouth like "functioning game dev team that doesn't suck" Like say na water them take dey build better game. most triple A games run into the hundreds of millions of dollars in terms of cost of development, where you wan see that kind money for Nigeria to develop game? who go give you? Money wey pass some states yearly allocation And even if that kind of budget was available, it would be a total disaster to develop a game where the majority of the people who should be your main customers are living in multi dimensional poverty. Nigerians never see food chop, na game them way come dey play people that you'd hardly see them pay for any form of premium subscription for any software. Me I've vowed that anytime i have money to begin a start up, i would go and establish abroad first for many years, then maybe move my operational hq to Nigeria after the company has become a global household name, just to help this country... Because starting any form of tech company in Nigeria for Nigerians is a disaster waiting to happen, ask jumia, lazer pay others 3 Likes |

Domaining101: Kek Most games started with a single individual before becoming huge eg Minecraft, Roller coaster tycoon etc. The dude that made naijia whot and ludo is making forking dough |

DyingFetus: Nigeria don't have GPU to render high quality HDR games . The cost of create such games is difficult unless u buy asset pack or your are a programmer and 3d animation designer. Game like this requires a team of 100+ developers and animators . |
Re: Game Dev by DyingFetus: 10:56am On Dec 28, 2023 |
Alphabyte2: You can build games with a decent CPU Duke nukem was built with a shitty PC , even Doom When it comes to building games , there are two essential parts ; the game programming and the design It mustn't be a GPU I wish more Nigerians will get into other fields that's not Fintech |
Re: Game Dev by Alphabyte2: 11:24am On Dec 28, 2023 |
DyingFetus: True I was talking about high quality games. God of war and soccer games on playstation fps is higher u need a pc with good GPU. CPU can create good games but powerful games animation requires GPU. |

Fintech is lucrative than gaming business in Nigeria. I think we don't have enough game studios like electronic art and santa monica studio |
Re: Game Dev by DyingFetus: 11:35am On Dec 28, 2023 |
Alphabyte2: Building console games requires much more than PC games Unreal engine doesn't require much and you can use it to build games like PUBG mobile |
Re: Game Dev by LikeAking: 11:53am On Dec 28, 2023 |
DyingFetus: Many secrets Nigerians don’t know.. We always look at the white from the top. It’s a reason we can’t develop. Imagine people thinking u need millions to start game dev.. We no well for this country. When you tell dev to build Apps and publish online, they are all thinking about flutter wave and pay stack.. |
Re: Game Dev by Alphabyte2: 12:08pm On Dec 28, 2023 |
LikeAking: A good game studio like Ea and Santa Monica studio requires millions of dollars. Animators Programmers Sound engineers Mocap tools Voice actors Script writers etc No secret it requires dedication and hard work by collaboration of teams. |
Re: Game Dev by LikeAking: 12:14pm On Dec 28, 2023 |
Alphabyte2: I know.. But we must be encouraged to start small, even those guys started very small. We have all the tools you listed, except mocap… Which I think is not very expensive.. Nigerians can afford everything listed there, we are just a bit wasteful with money., For eg, we prefer building mansions for bragging rights in our villages first, instead of investing wisely. |

LikeAking: You can use generative AI if you are a indie game developer it could help improve productivity. I predicted before that games will be created by AI now unity and unreal with other game engine are working on it . |
Re: Game Dev by DyingFetus: 12:23pm On Dec 28, 2023 |
LikeAking: Nigerian programmers needs to come together and embrace their inner geekdom Nigerian needs to develop their tech sphere not in Fintech They should do other things like game dev, havking , networking There are a lot of things to be done in the tech sphere especially in Nigeria A lot of things that'll make a lot of money if you put the sweat and time |
Re: Game Dev by Alphabyte2: 12:28pm On Dec 28, 2023 |
DyingFetus: We need a revolution of programmers that are are not only after money but creativity and innovation. We could build games with African culture. The game will generate billions of dollars if marketed right and target different platform. |

Alphabyte2:I am thinking of creating a web gambling game. Yes i am thinking of money not passion this time. Planning on using threeJs |
Re: Game Dev by Alphabyte2: 11:26am On Dec 30, 2023 |
tollyboy5: You can integrate multiple HTML5 play to earn games in like ngawin using react . |
Re: Game Dev by danielclerkson(m): 1:50am On Jan 13 |
But imagine a game about Sango or Ogun as MCs |
Re: Game Dev by Alphabyte2: 11:57am On Jan 13 |
danielclerkson: The title suites it is rage of the black gods . It won't be hard creating such games but it will take years of development. |
Re: Game Dev by danielclerkson(m): 7:01pm On Jan 13 |
Alphabyte2:But the problem is that even after development, Nigerians would rather play western games than patronise their own culture |
Re: Game Dev by DyingFetus: 7:47pm On Jan 14 |

tollyboy5:I'm interested- if it's something you'll need another hand. I work with Threejs and R3f. |
