No money because they are retarded. Faggots always want to insert pre-Columbian cultures on whatever project and they have shit aesthetics and are boring as fuck
Programming is a hard investment in 3rd world countries.
-you need an initial investment for computers
-you need an internet connection
-you want to keep your skills updated
All of that is harder to do if you're not from a well to do 3rd world country, because most of the time you'd probably be finding ways to survive, eat food everyday and save up whatever shit you can for when you're fucking old. Even if you know programming, it's probably a better investment to get out of your country and work in some IT company or whatever, because making a game is itself pretty risky.
Everyone here has a gayming computer and internet now, you have an outdated view.
They just don't make games because they spend the entire day watching twitch and Dross on youtube.
are video games a flag sport?
is there a nations world cup for video games creation?
I lived under a rock for 10 years, can someone explain?
a lot of people are opening these threads
i thought the reason why we dont make games here is because we fuck off from the continent the first chance we get
>oh, you got a job offer abroad? cling to it with your life because you just got a free ticket to get outta hell (this is especially true if you can program/dev)
its not because we're poor, it's because there's much better options than game devving here
Mexico made Kerbal Space Program. That puts them in the top 50 of game developer countries.
its because a lot of latinos use this board, it's essentially a thread to get all of us together for a while
it's comfy when mods don't prune it
every person capable of making a videogame here has already left the continent

What kind of game would you guys like to make?
Loli Pussy 2
Considering you guys are stuck with Brazil and Venezuela, why are you surprised your people suck at everything?
There's a 1!?
>stuck with Venezuela
FTFY. venezuela is much worse than brazil
i say this because i'm brazillian. don't get me wrong, we're bad. but we're not venezuela bad
Need to focus too much on just stay afloat, cant use time or money on something so consuming like making games.
No local market and the need to use international distribution requires dollars, which is taxated to hell and back because shitconomy
You’re sort of right, but yes, laziness is a major factor, speaking from experience because I’ve been trying to work with other argentinians and they’re ALWAYS coming up with some sort of excuse as to why they can’t make any meaningful contribution to a project or why they can’t deliver what they’re tasked with doing on time, not to mention they’re unprofessional to the point that they even flat out refuse to answer messages when you ask them why that sprite sheet, model or character design you asked from them and either paid for already or they explicitly promised to deliver is taking so damn long.
Argentina develops and/or created a bunch of popular open-source game engines:
Ogre3D's current lead developer is Matias "dark_sylinc" Goldberg, an Argentine developer from Mar del Plata, Buenos Aires.
Godot Engine was created by Juan Linietsky and Ariel Manzur, two Argentine developers from Buenos Aires City.
cocos2d was created by Ricardo Quesada, an Argentine developer.

A Chinese fork of it (maintained by the original Argentine developer for years) is used by Chinese, Japanese, European and American companies, including the Android and iOS port of Plague Inc. by Miniclip.

>Called X-Port Genie, director of Miniclip's smartphone division Antonio Sergio Varanda says it's the product of 12 months hard work.
>"We develop all our iOS games natively using cocos2d so we wanted to maintain that workflow as well as adding support for Android," he explains.

Programming is not pushed in schools etc. like in many other countries. Most people have no idea what "computer programming" means.
People here don't know how to teach game making, i've been studying in a programming university for over 2 years and still feel like i can't create something as basic as pong.
Same reason you guys can't develop into 1st world countries. Brown people have low IQ.
because all the best jobs for programming are located up north
if you're genuinely skilled enough to work on videogames why would you stay in a shithole that doesn't value your labor?
The ones in power are almost never brown tho.
Yea Forumsatos always was a latin american board, gringo

we did
we arealdy did
no seriously we have this thread every week
alright if you want the real reason its because the minimun salary here is like $190/mo
imagine trying to make a game while working on something like that
of course people are fucking desperate to leave this place is fucking hell
even if you're an ok artist in here, if you're paid in dollars you're making big fucking bucks
I will now buy your game
This, it's a combination of a lot of people being tech illiterate and not having the time and energy to make vidya even if they know how. Then there's also the conceptual barrier of getting people to realize it's something they can set out to do, thou that doesn't seem to be as much of an issue with people under like 20 thankfully.
Dross still exists?
Is all of his content made to impress ten years old or did he change any of it
>latin bros...why we can't make games??
Actual answer, leaving your job to dedicate full time to a game project its pretty much impossible and outsourcing task to anyone else its too expensive
this , here in Costa Rica brain drain its a massive problem, we got good professional but most people try to chase work opportunities outside of the country
Lack of game studios, there are little to no studios, and a lot of good job opportunities on normal software dev jobs, if you want to make a game it must done without any job experience.
The studios we have are really stupid and try to compete with the west market making AAA games with no money and little experience, this is probably fault of normalfags constantly sucking off movie games, when the obvios path for a starting company is trying to make a niche indie game.
I want to make a game and i have the programming knowledge and skills, but i working 2 full time jobs and finishing Uni, so thats my excuse, maybe when i finish Uni.
if the game and the dev is good, you won't know from where it's from.
we use most of our time and money trying to survive in this hellhole

As a BR myself, I find that most brazilians are a bunch of unprofessional monkeys who love to brag about knowing shit while not actually knowing shit.
I dunno, maybe it's just me, but I've met so many so called ''programmers" and "IT" who didn't know jack shit and said things so stupid it even makes a 90yo grandma look like she knows more about computers.
If fucking Russia and Bulgaria and Turkey can make games they'll get there eventually
They do make games. They do it as soon as they get employed at an American studio.
la primera
I always wanted to learn how to make games, but when I was younger there were no programming schools nearby.
Sí, tú definitivamente eres retrasado.
Indie games are as good as we get.
We have nothing to do with them (Hispanics)
why we can't make games??
too many niggers and indios in south america
No, we just have a lot of excuses to not do anything.
Chile is nepotism: the country, there's like one or two good indie companies, i dont expect that to be the norm
Most of the time it is not worth to get into making games unless you make mobile shit, people around here spend most of their time finding ways to survive, even in big cities
but enough of that.
My fellow third worlders, what have you been
>playing
>wanting to play
>doing
Currently on a nostalgia trip replaying gta4 and watching duck dodgers. Life could be better but it could also be a lot worse.
that really depends on the company.
the regions colonized with immigrants and not with slaves have next to zero crime, every single time, despite everyone being dirt poor.
examples are the states in the south of brazil
Retard

No one cares. This isn't the thread for videogame discussion. It's about how humanity keeps treating south americans like they're humans even though they're barely more advanced than monkeys.
>that really depends on the company.
No shit Sherlock. I mean that MOST people here are that way.
a Uruguayan made this
Latin America is not a continent kek it's a linguistic region spanning two continents
What are you even doing here?
>playing
Sea of Thieves and Nightmare Reaper
>wanting to play
Earth Defense Force 5 alreaedy bought the game am gonna play it with my gf but we had the time

What do you think
Complain about things you don't like?
And where are we again?
Same. I have barely been working in these past few weeks
Wait, Godot was made by argies? Didn't know that.
At least they did 2 iconic games.
Crazy bus, Valhalla
Too busy fapping to anime girls to bother
