As previously stated: game development is a complex project to undertake. To get an understanding of the complexities we have chosen to use the credits lists from two games with very different scope and from two traditions of game development: tripleA and indie. The games chosen as representatives from each category are based on both the production tradition, but also on top lists. The triple-A game Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey (Ubisoft, 2018) is credited as one of the games in the top selling list of 20181 . The indie game chosen, Undertale (tobyfox, 2015) has a similar track record on the charts, dubbed as an “indie sensation” and on the top selling lists of 20162 . Comparing the projects shows that the number of people involved in creating these products varies massively; from several thousand people to approximately two (one main developer with additional art support from one artist).
You know I'm really glad the guy who made Undertale isn't annoying or insane

Roles in indie production To make a similar overview of a popular small scale indie game is easier. While Undertale could be seen as an “easy pick” and as an unfair comparison to Assassins Creed, it is worth to reiterate that both are examples of top selling games available on multiple platforms. The game Undertale is produced in GameMaker and has one developer credited as main developer (“Undertale by: Toby Fox”) and another developer for various tasks, such as cutscenes and logo design. It is interesting to note that the community connection is very apparent in this indie production, with a long list of “Special Thanks” containing 880 names. While the sheer scope and production values vary greatly between Undertale and Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey, it is also a sign of the range of production resources when producing a popular game.

Why so much people buy undertale when it's the easiest game to pirate in history.
Adrian Johnson
Most people don't even have to think about spending 10 bucks
Julian Brown
to support cool dudes like toby
Lucas Reyes
I'm glad I pirated it, fuck Toby and fuck Undertale

Cause niggers want to feel white by doing things no sane person would do. All the cope coming to you are niggers too.

I wrote a 12 page paper about video games as part of my bachelor's

What in the literal fuck is a "bachelor's thesis"? I got my BS in Criminal Justice and I'm almost positive I didn't do one.
Oliver Ross
smaller dev teams, not neccesarily indie ones, objectively deliver more well designed games because there's vastly better communication between all members and they can all work together to convey their vision as best as possible, with AAA studios shoving a thousand people onto their projects to make it seem more like a hollywood tier production only makes development hell for everybody on the project because all communication is fizzled out and thus everybody just has to come in and do their job making the final product entirely separate than whatever was originally envisioned. I'm not refering to the undertale & ac:odyssey conperison in the OP, just in general.

Cause I want Toby to continue saving video games with my money. The many millions of dollars he probably has by now aren't enough to fund the realistic sex scenes (with 4th wall breaking elements, of course) he promised me his next project's going to have, in which he summons real like hookers (of the same gender as yours. It is a Toby "Waves In Vacuum" Fox game after all, and we can't have straight relationships) to your house. Thank you Tony Fucks for saving video games and my life.
>all the replies are from furfaggots lol nice fanbase

Some programs require a “capstone” project to compete a Bachelors which can take the form of a thesis. Completely retarded because pretty much no one, besides literal 200+ IQ geniuses, produce anything of merit during their undergraduate degree.
Bentley Thomas
Usually a capstone project or honor's thesis done in your junior/senior year at the behest of your degree program or college. Some majors may not require it depending on the university you go to.
Brayden Jones
No it was homestuck furfags: the game, Any Forums edition. Shit fan base #2 behind MLP
Camden Campbell
dude nuh uh! It's not like the indie scene has a history of killing people that aren't in lockstep or for their own benefit OH, FUCKING, WAIT.
If you read some absolutely braindead, deranged political take on Twitter there's like a 33% chance there's a picture of a sparkledog accompanying it.
Daniel King
Played this game a little while ago and really liked the fairy tale spinoff thing, pretty sad the dude killed himself because of five guys of all things
Camden Gutierrez
This is some next level bootlicking
Isaiah Myers
not familiar with this situation, involves a suicide doesn't it?
Can't speak for other countries but in Swedish universities (which the document linked in the OP came from) you typically have to conduct some sort of study and write an essay during your third year. Like said the vast majority of them are absolute dogshit because most people just want to get their degree and be done with it and never write another thesis in their life afterward.
