Main Roster

Starters

Position	No.	Name	Image	Description
GK	60	Godot		The world of game engines is a brutal one when it comes to selection, but the libre Godot engine is trying her best for you. Give her a shot, give up, and then fall right back into the GameMaker pit.
LB	F2	Stealing Assets		No one's going to play your game anyway, so who cares? Modeling is hard and artdevs are mythical so just throw Mario in there and give him a gun. Now we're making progress! Fun Fact: This character has no name beyond "comfy pirate". It's a model that predates the team that was made publicly available to game devs for fun. The original creator of this model still visits /agdg/ and was surprised to see her playing divegrass.
CB	AC	Low Poly Folly		When it comes to making a game you might be tempted to go for that retro look to try and tap into the collective nostalgia of a demographic that never really left the 90s. While this can work for pixel based games make no attempt to apply this rule to polygons. Everyone remembers Goldeneye fondly but no one wants to LOOK at it anymore.
CB	NaN	Source Autists		Listen there's no such thing as an objectively wrong answer when it comes to choosing an engine for your game but for your own well being I'm telling you to stop this madness. There are so many better choices than this and yet you hang onto this relic just because you made a few GMOD assets back in the day. Please, get help.
RB	64	Cornflower Blue		Its gotten to the point where we've declared colors memes. We only have a finite number of these you know, if we go too wild here eventually every color will be a meme and society will collapse in on itself! Fun Fact: This row being blue does not have any special significance beyond the obvious.
DMF	AC	Animation Not Final		We're in the proof of concept phase here, visuals come later. There's only a model here to give you a general idea of where the character actually is. Please don't get hung up on how he looks or how he moves that's not the point of this demo! IT WILL BE CHANGED! Personal Awards: /vg/ League 9 Best Player Model
RMF	CC	/ccg/		Once upon a time there was an AGDG "game" that was so popular among its posters that in order to protect the sanctity of the general it was driven out. This game was Cookie Clicker, and in the wastes of /vg/ it thrived, becoming Cookie Clicker General. Eventually it became the more generalized general of Idle Games General. Then it died, whoops. But at the very least we can hold onto this one piece of /ccg/ forever more, a relic of a really fucking addictive and obnoxious time in our collective past.
LMF	15	/rpgmg/		It's limited, it's clumsy, it's not even terribly beginner friendly... Yet RPG Maker will seemingly never die. It's not clear if these lads were laughed out of /agdg/ or just left of their own accord, but it's STILL game dev dammit!
AMF	11	Motavio		Patron saint of proactive motivation, a rugged looking Italian(?) man always waiting in the wings to beat your ass if you slack off for too long. A lot of us wish we had someone like this in our lives, so instead we try to be it for each other. Fun Fact: This Motavio model is actually a recreation of a long lost model that we knew of from only one rendered image. It was the creator's first effort in blender. Good hustle!
SS	F5	Give Up		Every single day the desire may appear: "it'd be so easy to just stop wouldn't it?". The /agdg/ road is a hard road, it is a road you will want to leave. You must push through the pain, for off the beaten path exists only ruin and really shitty opinions. Fun Fact: Phil Fish helped create a popular video game (Fez) and then instantly became a "jaded" shitlord who promptly ragequit the entire industry. As far as anyone is aware he's a DJ somewhere in California now. Personal Awards: /ag/ League 2: Autism Harder Golden Ball (9 assists over 6 games) /vg/ League 9 Qualifiers Golden Ball (3 assists over 3 games)
CF	6A	Just Like Make Game		Follow your dreams and some day your games will be good. People will play them! It's gonna be so good! You're going to make a world, a world others will experience! Once it's done no one will ever be able to take that from you! It will be yours, forever! Embrace /agdg/-tan and just fucking suck it up already! Fun Fact: /agdg/-tan isn't actually from a game, people just like drawing waifus. The creator of this model is unknown, and it predates the existence of this team by a fairly large margin. Personal Awards: /vg/ League 9 Qualifiers Golden Boot (4 goals over 3 games) /vg/ League 9 Qualifiers Golden Ball (3 assists over 3 games)

Substitutes

Position	No.	Name	Image	Description
GK	4	Unity		It's only low effort if you let it be low effort. Pay your way to the game of your dreams!
LB	CC	MOAR WAFIUS PLS		For better and worse waifus can sell games, embrace them and become stronger. Maybe someone will even make fanart of your perfectly engineered waifu, and then boy oh boy your once pure intentions are going to be sullied something fierce. Keep your head held high and just don't admit to saving that stuff, alright?
CB	AA	Googum		Existing paradoxically between the absolutes of the nodev and the yesdev is Googum, a living meme. He makes game, but yet still acts out like a nodev. Where is his solace, where is his respect, and why the fuck isn't anyone contributing to his Patreon? Fun Fact: Googum is a real person but insists only posting with only a trip-less name, so the fake shitposting in his name might be immense... but that doesn't really feel like the case here.
CB	FF	>mfw no artists		If you really want to make a game by yourself you don't just need a vision and coding acumen, you'll also need to be an artistic soul with fingers that actually know how to draw. Chances are you aren't a triple threat so welcome to the wasteland brother! Maybe some day you'll meet that nice artist/musician to match up with your skillset, and maybe if you really lucky you'll fall in love so she won't ask to be paid.
CB	42	Oculus Shit		Even before Facebook got involved people were already getting a bit over VR. Oh wow look it's another "stand in place and shoot targets" game. Have fun paying $40 for half a tech demo because of the system having a install base only slightly larger than the Virtual Boy.
RB	A4	Idea Guy		See that mountain? I'm going to tell the programmers that you should be able to climb it! This is the job most people are actually thinking about when they say "I want to work in video games". Spoilers: it doesn't exist on anything more than a theoretical level. Please stop bugging us about how you've got a great plan to remake Minecraft until you actually learn how to write a hello world program.
DMF	1	Singleton Dog		The singleton dog knows nothing of the world of man. His only desire is to exist forever, apart and unique. This is all he has ever known, and it is the way it must be.
LMF	66	2D Pixel Girl		There's so little here, and yet I feel so much. How can a few hundred pixels do this to a man? I feel her pain goddamn it, it's my pain too! It's everyone's pain! The suffering is global! Fun Fact: The game this character comes from was called "Traveler". Like many AGDG games it seemingly never came out but people were taken by this girl and she garnered some fanart all the same. Rule 34 exists.
LMF	2	Ascended Modder		So you've been in the modding scene for a few years. You've made some stuff that was liked and generally gotten skilled with whatever questionable set of tools your chosen game(s) had available. It's time to make that leap, to become known for more than just that guy making quality romhacks. Yes. It's time for your creativity to serve your own vision, so come and suffer with us instead!
RMF	24	Asset Posting		For most posting progress comes down to showing off a new mechanic or solving a troublesome bug. A few rare souls instead show off their art and models almost exclusively. It's all very nice but uh, is there a game attached to this? If there isn't can I use these assets? Please? No, I can't pay bu- oh alright. Thanks anyways.
RMF	F	Doomed Fan Games		If we know the game exists you're already dead. You release the game FIRST. DON'T LET NINTENDO KNOW. YOU WILL NOT SURVIVE THE DMCA.
SS	C4	>GameMaker		GameMaker is not something you use to get ahead. You use it because you already know it, and you can't be bothered to change engines AGAIN. We're not judging you here. Not much at least.

Off Roster Players

Former Players

Player in this category previously competed as a boxhead player. If aesthetics were made that fit their theme they'd likely return to active use.

Position	No.	Name	Image	Description
RMF	C	Sepples		Once upon a time there was a language called C, and it was a modest thing. People saw C and said "wow I wish there was more to this" and so they made C++. It's been downhill ever since. Last Seen: /vg/ League 9 Friendlies
RMF	20	Post Progress		Progress is material with which you will build the long hard road to your game. Post progress every goddamn day. Don't work hard, don't work smart, just work. Or else. Last Seen: /vg/ League 9 Friendlies
LMF	A	Weekly Recap		We're here to keep you honest, so join in on the weekly recap so we can low key force you to be productive! We've added gamification elements, so hopefully that urge to keep your streak will keep you going long after all rational desire to do so has died. Last Seen: /vg/ League 9 Friendlies
CB	0	AGDQ		Greetings from Germany! Long time watcher first time poster, why aren't you guys talking about the speedrun? Fun Fact: Canonically this a refugee from  /srg/, specifically the third goalkeeper "Games Done Quick". Lore building is important. Last Seen: /vg/ League 9
GK	4	Unreal Engine 4		Lets be professionals about this. Lets be real. Lets use what the pros use. All these reasons and more are not good reasons to give Epic Games your money, but hey at least it's not GameMaker. Fun Fact: Unreal Engine 4 is actually a former  /3/ player, though he only was on the roster for their appearance at the 2015 4chan Autumn Babby Cup and was never actually brought onto the pitch. Last Seen: /vg/ League X Friendlies
LB	16	nodev		So it happened: you gave up, or maybe you never even started? But you still want to be a part of /agdg/, and wow is that a bad idea. All we can hope is watching others progress will relight the fire in your heart for game dev, otherwise what are you even doing here? (The answer is shitposting) Last Seen: /vg/ League X Friendlies

Potential Players

Players in this category have never actually been on the pitch, and exist mostly as suggestions to "slot in" player models that might at some future point exist.

Position	No.	Name	Image	Description
??	??	Enginedev		A game engine is middleware: It exists to get between you and the purity of the code. This is a sin. You cannot do this. You must start from scratch for every game. It must ALL be your work. Even if it adds years to production, even if it means it functions like garbage. IT MUST BE YOURS.
LB / LMF ?	??	Appeal To Furries		Furries are weirdos, but they're weirdos with a lot of brand loyalty and inexplicably huge sums of money they'd gladly dump on their weird hobby/fetish. You don't have to be one of them to take advantage of this fact, just keep in mind what they say about he who fights monsters.
RB / RMF ?	??	Appeal To Boners		Hey do you know how to draw and want to make a decent chunk of change? Make a porn game! Meet and Fuck may be dead but it left in its wake a whole market of desperate loners with exceedingly low standards. Just keep in mind that you probably won't want to put this one on the Resume if you ever go professional.
??	??	Abandoned Projects		You got so far and tried so hard but in the end it turned out the game just wasn't very fun. Or maybe you just hit a wall creatively. Or maybe you just couldn't kill that one game crashing bug. Whatever the case your game isn't dead per say it's just sitting in a folder marked "on hold" as you move onto greener pastures. You aren't coming back for it.
??	??	This is Not Game Dev		AGDG IS FOR THE DISCUSSION OF GAME DEV ONLY. THIS POST IS NOT ABOUT GAME DEV. PLEASE FUCK OFF AND STOP POSTING THIS BECAUSE THE PURITY OF OUR THREADS IS IMPORTANT. GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE WITH THIS SHIT!!!

Sacked Players

Players in this category are probably never coming back for one reason or another.

Position	No.	Name	Image	Description
RB	4C	>>>/3/>>>/gd/>>>/g/		/agdg/ sits at a crossroads of discussion: you might need tech help, you might want help with your aesthetics, god forbid you might want a model. When your begging grows too loud some asshole will probably try to show you the door. Enjoy being called a scrub over in /g/, appreciate the leisurely pace of /gd/, or just marvel at the fact that /3/ is a board that still exist. Last Seen: /vg/ League 8 Qualifiers Sacked: Was only ever tangentially related to /agdg/, existed mostly to try and steal mojo from 4cc teams (which didn't work). Also as a mercy to commentators trying to pronounce his name.
