Neat! What kinda game is it gonna be?

>>324053828
Thank god for archives, saved an old post I made before.

The goal at the moment is to make a survival mod where the player will attempt to survive by ensuring he does not mess up, survives the coming war and it's battles. An ai will attack the player while he attempts to establish a working economy, allies and foes alike will try to establish themselves in the region too.

At the moment I have systems in place for

-Needs of the people (food, cloths and enjoyment)
-Farms (custom plants, growth time, harvest time and plant time)
-Storehouse (where buildings deliver and request materials, workers have a carry capacity - jobs get split up by it, a food version, a queue system)
-Refinery (where materials gets refined into other materials)
-Gatherers (gathers materials from nearby resources, gather location can be changed)
-Towers (Attacks nearby enemies, ammunition can be changed on a tower by tower basis)
-Basic Enemy AI (a basic AI that seeks out the player and attacks his units/buildings)

I've got some other systems in place but they're kinda minor. There are a lot of things I still wanna implement, a couple of examples are a weather system (rain that causes all growing plants not to die, too much and the crops die. Snow that changes the way you play both with the economy but also how you wage war), Eco system for all living things (so what you do can have an affect on other things, cutting down to much of the forest might scare away the deer)

>>324058327
There's not much you can do more without learning how to code. You can give Unity a try and see if their way of easing you into learning how to code in parallel with the rest of the system can work for you.
Most people who think they have a "simplistic way of thinking" never really tried. The basics of programming are not like super advanced maths: everyone can learn how to do it with a bit of effort.

Posting progress is kind of boring when your entire game is placeholder graphics

Expert coder here. I could easily whip up a playable demo of any kind of game in a matter of days, but my big problem is that I just don't have any good ideas for what kind of game to make. If only I could find some kind of collaborator to give me specific direction of what kind of characters and backstory they would like to see. I'd love the chance to be able to listen to detailed (or even vague) descriptions of theme, lore and gameplay. I'd absolutely do my best to stay true to whatever vision my collaborator had in terms of overall tone and impression while I do all the system design, coding, and testing. Really all they'd have to do was playtest the demo it to see if my work was faithful enough to their vision, or if I should go back and refine it further. Maybe this thread will help me with my idea problem.

Kurushi, but for mobiles.

>>324059670
A game in the style of Commandos, but you have a tool that can move the entire level through time, and change everything, even all the actors, accordingly. As a result the players would have to switch time periods to better suit the situation.
A stupid example just to get the idea across, if you're in a modern time with no ranged weapons in an open area and you're spotted, you switch to prehistoric times so the enemy's ranged weapons are now thrown rocks with very little range.

I know I will never make this because I'm already busy doing another retardedly overambitious project and besides this game would be a complete bitch to balance, so if you or anyone else wants to steal this, feel free.

Actually, I have a spritesheet ready and tried to animate it in Unity, but for the life of me I can't figure it out. Did the whole splicing thing, but it's the animator panel that's confusing the hell out of me.

Our art style looks similiar but it isn't the witness

>>324061563
Again, I'm totally new and don't really know where to start, that's why I was hoping anyone would know of any really easy basic ones to follow. I've actually tried some in the past but I find a lot are very difficult to follow, messy or are just a bit too advanced for me, plus most tutorials seem to be for 3D, not 2D.
The one the other anon posted is good and I'm reading them right now, that and I started watching an introduction to C# on youtube so I kind of understand what some code will do but again it's very minimal.

I'd really like to learn how to get a sprite to walk with animations (I figured out how to get a static sprite to move around already but the animation thing is confusing the hell out of me), how to make text pop up when you interact with an object, and change rooms. I'd love to make more complicated things but I figure they're a good place to start?

>>324062440
I know nothing about animations.
To load a new room you need to switch scene with SceneManager.LoadScene
http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/SceneManagement.SceneManager.LoadScene.html
To make text popup you need to instantiate a UI.Text. The problem is that since you have no programming experience, telling you things like this does nothing, because you have no notion of what Instantiate is, how to calculate the Vector3 for its position, and so on.
Getting started is a very slow process.

>>324062440
youtubed "unity tutorials", literally second result, get the corresponding playlist
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZ1b66Z1KFKik2g8D4wrmYj4yein4rCk8
there are a million series like this one
don't just try to find the 10 seconds you want to do a single thing, watch a series of tutorials and take notes and do the things along while you're watching
watch "introduction to..." and "for beginners" stuff and everything should be explained in order. you can't just jump in wherever and expect to understand what they're saying. sometimes you need just a little theory/explanations so you can move on. if one series is really bad, find another. there's no way you can't find what you're looking for, there is way however that what's happening is that you're not being patient.

>>324062440
(Not the same anon.) For animations, this is the tutorial series that I used:

>>324063276
Thanks for the advice, and the link. What you're saying is actually true, but I guess the reason for me doing that is that I find 2D tutorials difficult to find... is there benefit to me watching 3D tutorials, can I learn that and apply that knowledge to 2D?
I wandered around and looked at a lot of tutorials before I started watching this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12Ste_E1Q7g and I feel it's well explained and I'm understanding what commands mean/do. I got up as far as Arrays and I started having trouble but I'll keep watching until I get it.

You're right, I am being impatient. I guess I'm just excited and want to make stuff right away, but of course that's not really possible. What do you guys think is a reasonable timeframe to learn how to do all of the things I outlined in my post before? Would 3 months of learning C# be reasonable?

Fair enough. I pirated it myself so I could learn how stuff worked.

I'm not that great at it but if you have any Construct questions I'd be happy to try and answer.

I think he means that the pixels aren't aligned to a grid, meaning this can happen

>>324064717

I'm sure I'll have many, but I've been trying to stick to reading tutorials for help and just monkeying with the system as best as I can.

I've been reading a tutorial on animations and bounding boxes, so that's going to be the next leg of my journey.

>>324064104
>is there benefit to me watching 3D tutorials, can I learn that and apply that knowledge to 2D?
yes, anything that's not related to positions in space still works of course
Unity actually used to not have any explicitely 2D stuff, it does now though (since 5, so do search for Unity 5 tuts)
>I got up as far as Arrays and I started having trouble
depends what you mean by "trouble", if it's "losing concentration after a day starting from scratch", it's fine, if it's "spent several days on arrays", get it a little together
arrays, like other things, are a basic component of programming, you'll see it all the time, it's something you can't skip
I can't answer you as to a timeframe, I've given up all that stuff some time ago, that was just general advice. I'll just say don't go and start thinking "I need to get a game out within 6 months because my rent depends on it", that's not gonna work

if you really, really just want fast results you could go with Game Maker, I'm not sure how much more simple than Unity it is though, maybe not that much

>>324064104
>3 months
If you try to do some learning daily it shouldn't take you take long to start building something. Then as you continue learning you can keep building on top of that.
Chances are in the end you'll end up scrapping everything and restarting from scratch because you'll then understand how things work much better, but that's the way it goes. That second time you'll be much faster at it.
>>324064796
Maybe those are eight pixels

>>324064796

Hmm, good point. I guess my biggest problem is the sprites are two small if I'm making a 1:1 8-bit styled game, so I just multiplied everything by 3. I wonder if I can fix that.

>>324065182

I assume there's a way in Construct to make a room that's 1:1 size but the window the player views the game in is 2/3x zoomed in. That way you could keep the pixels and movement consistent and also keep the upscaled resolution of the game.

>>324065182
It really isn't a problem, it just might trigger a few peoples' autism.
If you want to eliminate it though, the solution is the have everything at native res in the agme and then have the game window display at 3x.
I don't really know if that's possible in construct though

>>324065057
Well, it's a vertical shooter. Unless you have a special idea there's not much where you can take it.
You could try to see how crazy you can make it become while keeping a perfect performance.

>>324065182
You could always make the screen size 256x240 and then have the game scale up to your window size.

>>324065480
>>324065440
>>324065396

I know you can maximize the game window but I couldn't figure out how to choose certain settings. I'll add this to my to-do list.

>>324065451
I'm planning on adding a bit of randomization, nothing too excessive, sort of along the lines of Strikers 1945 stages and then maybe doing Nuclear Throne upgrades and BoI-style randomly chosen bosses.

Allow the player to hijack enemy ships and control them. Different ships have their own HP and strength values. If the player's current ship is gunned down their power meter depletes, and they need to find a new one to control before it hits 0.

Made the missile trails framerate-independent so they look way less shit. Now working on making the high level AIs less inclined to spin in circles, as well as adding a way for the player to control their wingman; right now, wingmen target whatever plane their leader targets, but I'd like to make it so they can act more defensively as well, targeting any planes that target their leader. Hopefully something like that would let the player use their wingman to force the enemy AIs into less predictable movements

Sit down, note some ideas. Just random shit.

Do some research about the popular games these days, also the indie games.

Look at what makes these games popular, and how you are to use these features for your own. Mostly adept to what people look for, and or like, just for a profit and high succes rate.

>>324068448
But they aren't actually useful without animations are they?

My biggest problem is that I actually know how to code, but the thought of sitting down and having to do all that boilerplate shit just to bring assets together into something that I might not like demotivates me into giving up. Then I look at engines that bypass the painful shit, and all I see is inflexibility and having to learn how to trick it into doing what I want. How do you actually get the motivation to do a project when you don't have the thrill of learning as you go and wanting to power through the challenges of being a new coder?

Ex. press space, charge up to lv 2, press Q (fire rune) and W (movement rune), release space to cast "Fireball" - mana decreases if a spell is succesfully cast.
This offers around 400 spell combinations.
Spells get radically more powerful as complexity increases - possibility of "Epic" spells done with a long string of letters, requires magical tome found in the map?

Right now most of the game systems are in a working state, I require cool assets and actually coding the 400 spells.
Should I continue working on this, /v/?

Think about this for your level design, those hallways are very narrow. If you check Hotline Miami every single room you go into you can maneuver around a bit. As is those hallways are death traps, or at least can inhibit the flow of the game.

The way the trailer is right now, I'd rather just have a simple description of the game instead. It looks like a really shitty hotline clone, with tons of obnoxious effects to hide any actual gameplay. This makes me not want to try it out.

Question for your UE4 fucks, been fucking around with UE4 and I'm more practiced with the character modeling aspect with Maya than the actual software of making it all click, but hey, gotta start somewhere. Anyway, I imported the character I made as an .fbx file and it appears in UE4 as a static mesh when I drag it into the game world. It works fine standing there doing the default arms out pose..so..what exactly are the steps needed to make it an actual NPC with movement as opposed to just a stiff box?

That is, not a player character itself, but at least so it stands there and just idles as opposed to just static hang there?

>>324071871
Anon, kindly kill yourself.

Anon, i got an idea of a game, if any devbro is interested to hear it, you can add me on steam

Basically it involves a top down hotel management gameplay, youre a hotel manager in the worst shithole crime infested place of X country. Involves shooting and money management, also maybe a plot about the main character that adds aspects to the gameplay

I can go more in depth if anyone wants to hear more, sorry for being a first timer ideas guy

>>324071607
That's gay. Hopefully she gets lots of porn, that's the whole point of anthro characters anyway

>>324072017
That's the problem though, I've been looking for a tutorial and all I seem to find are tutorials about how to make a new player character from the existing skeleton mesh that comes with the default map, or how to import static objects and characters. No one seems to go through the steps on how to tweak a character from static pose to idle

>>324070605

Thank you for the tip. I appreciate it.

>>324072097
Sounds fun but i dont think the top down camera is a good idea

>>324070771

No i'm not. But thanks for asking. No, I sent an email + the game to ask about their opinion, and wether or not they felt like I stole their idea. They (or he/she) told me that they didn't feel like my intentions were to steal their ideas in any way. I did the same thing with the music that we use.

>You used the same style of music?

I'm not using the same style of music. Note, the creators of Hotline Miami had composers make tunes for the game, instead of reaching out for tunes that already existed. I mostly just intended to use Lorn's music but the (ex) co-creator felt, that using hardstyle was the way to go. I disagree.

I've been very busy with developing my latest version, which doesn't have any music in it at all. It isn't singleplayer either.

Make beat em up combat / hack and slash combat.

Play Dungeons And Dragons beatemup series by Capcom for good examples.

Also play a top down game called Beyond Oasis by Sega on the genesis.

Its not 2D plane, but the combat is very punchy and satisfying for a RPG/Adventure game.

I am planning on making a adventure/RPG game but with Beat Em Up/Fighting Game combat.

Except I suck at making games, I barely can make the player move properly.

You should probably use 3D Software for that. Unity could easily pull that off.

Alright.
1) I don't see how you can say this isn't like HM. It totally is. Not that it's a bad thing.
2) I didn't see much point in having to aim and sprint: to me it didn't seem that there was any advantage to not holding them down the entire time
3) the view is too zoomed in for my tastes. It meshed well with the speed anyway, but I'd have liked a bit more awareness
4) the AI seemed a bit sleepy, sometimes they had bullets flying around them and still didn't react
5) you should rework some tiles in areas like pic related because walls can be very hard to spot
6) game froze in the level after pic related

All around the controls felt good. The camera sway didn't bother me, but it didn't in HM either.

This is bait but there's some truth to it. Even if you have enough dedication/work ethic to actually learn all the skills necessary to make a game, once you get to that point you start to realize a lot of the ideas you used to have aren't technically feasible, or are ill-defined, or just flat-out not fun. When you can look at something and instantly see all the little flaws and hangups it's incredibly hard to motivate yourself to finish, let alone start, anything.

If you pop up again in another thread and post your wokr, I'll be glad to help.

>>324075780

I'm going to respond the same way you did, for social reasons.

1) I understand how you formed that opinion. I implore you to reconsider. By playing an outdated version, you've only scratched the surface of what the game is really about.

2) Aiming and sprinting is something that I concidered to be a benefit to the 'fast paced gameplay' I was aiming for.

3) The final (online) version will be slightly zoomed out for shooting etc, but a lot more zoomed out when it comes to driving around town.

4) The AI is retarded. But that's my opinion. The one that wrote the A.I. stated that it's a difficult process. I expect people to be understanding this.

5) I'll take that tip. I will rework the tiles and walls.

6) I have the exact same bug. I hate it. Even more because I know what cames after that level.

Thank you for the kind feedback and critisism.

It's legally risky. What you need to probably do is go for grounds of parody, but you'll have to make significant visual changes in order to avoid nasty legalities.

Im trying to learn making games on gamemaker right now

I think GMS is just way too fucking confusing for me right now, i feel like im drooling at the screen like a retard when I try to learn programming. I still can't even figure out to do anything beyond moving my character left and right, and I am not even sure if I am doing it the right way for my game.


Is it better to just learn Drag and Drop in gamemaker first or learn construct 2 if you are brand new at making games and programming is just too frustrating. I want to have at least a bit of fun making games, but I seriously can't get over the programming hurdle, I feel like a loser retard and want to give up.

Still workin' on my roguelike. Added a placeholder UI and now I'm working on a game title screen, a settings menu, and saving/loading games.
I'm having a lot of fun and I hope it's ok to post this here and on agdg.

> I'm going to change the way I respond to you because I'm a jerk

I'm okay with that.

> I played what you gave me

I posted the link but already stated that it was heavily outdated. Also because I expected people to give constructive critisism and tips based on their experience.

> It would, but not if there's no reason to not sprint and aim all the time

That isn't really up to you.

> It's not terrible, just needs more work

Thanks.

> I also forgot the mention something about ammo count, but I'd suspect that's something that you though about already anyway.

You're correct. And the ammo count was probably the newest addition to that version.

>>324077470

Yeah it was just the first thing that popped into my head. It looked like a wogyrm.

Clean it up a bit and it's perfect. The thumbnail is more fappable, still hot though.

Guys, im bored as fuck of videogames since im too poor to afford the newer ones

I want to make a game by myself now

A 2d sidescroller shooter game with some interesting story to it

I will not talk about gameplay yet, but i need you guys to reccomend mw a good program to make sprites

I can also take suggestions in the style, but im a fine ideas guy myself

Btw im using construct 2 because i dont know how to code yet, i might learn later

>>324077825

I use GraphicsGale. But honestly, MS Paint does the job just fine.

>>324077825

> some interesting story to it

Storywriter here. Hit me up.

> I need you guys to recommend a good program to make sprites

Adobe photoshop, or maybe pyxel.

>I can also take suggestions in the style

You can always determine this when you have the story finished.

> I dont know how to code yet, i might learn later

Don't limit yourself by pushing things ahead.

>>324077825

I use Pyxel Edit. It's not bad, though it has bugs and the dev has gone a bit AWOL.

There's also Aesprite which seems to be quite popular, and of course, Photoshop.

>>324077825
Don't make it story heavy at all. Nothing breaks the flow of a Run N' Gun than having to sit there for a minute and have a story unfold. Hell I even hate starting up Contra Hard Corps due to the long intro that you cannot skip. You just mash A as fast as you can and hope to finally play the game.

>>324050851
Any tips oh what to use for making a video game if you have no knowledge of coding?

>>324078169

I gotta say I like the game stylistically. I'm not exactly sure what you have in mind for gameplay though.

If you're on a Mac, Pixen is a great choice.

just draw it normally and then add a pixel layer? save as jpeg? like that?

>>324078289
I'm thinking short missions, maybe up to 5 minutes long. Basically try to navigate to the end of a level and possess the person/thing that's in control of an area to claim it as your own territory.

>>324078262
Learn to code.

Go for coop procedural generated or horde mode type stuff first. Less assets recquired. Lots of replyability. And you satisfy your urge for multi fuckery.

>don't tell me you're going to save a sprite as a jpg
shit I don't know. How do you make pixel art with photoshop? that sounds weird to me. I thought you had to make it in the actual game engine.

>>324078648
literally what?

>>324078713

Always use a .png with the background removed.

>>324078383
just use aseprite desu

I've got a lot to learn.

I compose vidya songs, mostly battle themes

Here are my most recent:

Standard "giant enemy" battle theme:

Climactic endgame fight with evil CEO (not the final boss btw):

https://soundcloud.com/iwilldevouryourkittens/the-end-of-all-things

High seas pirate battle, or something:

https://soundcloud.com/iwilldevouryourkittens/the-greatest-storm-of-our-times

Thoughts?

Just use the pencil tool and draw. Once you improve, you'll start to pick up tricks to work faster, like using the selection tool to quickly draw and fill polygons.

Save it as a png. Here's a comparison between PNG and JPG that'll show you why.

>>324078720
Phyre engine is (was) an engine used to develop for PsP and Ps3 I believe. I can't remember if Sony developed it, but I think it was only available through partnership with them.

No, I have not used it, but I've heard it's horrible.

>>324079103

> I've got a lot to learn

Why would you ever stop learning?

>>324079150
whatever, you can target all playstation consoles with unity so who cares?

I don't have any more monsters - I'm currently putting together some pirate map pieces. I'm just making free stuff, so the idea is to keep it varied.

>>324079183
I think its impossible to ever stop learning.

>>324079345

Unity, GameMaker and maybe Construct 2.

I'd suggest the last 2.

>>324079443
Ok, thank you. Any one of them in particular? Or just unreal engine 1?

>>324079543

> I think its impossible to ever stop learning

I'm going to tell that to my children.

So I've been considering making a a game.
>sidescroller action platformer, a la Mega Man
>however, instead of 1 boss per level, every boss has a whole world with several levels, think Mario 3, or perhaps there's just one constant world with bosses every several levels, Mario World style
>You play as personification of death metal music, going and killing other genres of music to get your fanbase back
>basically Shovel Knight gameplay
What engine should I use? Never made a game before, obviously gonna make a few simpler games just to get a feel for the engine before I actually get into this one.

>>324079605
>GM or Construct 2 for 3D

this advice could be right from /agdg/

>>324079323
Phyre was around before Unity. I believe (though could be wrong) that it didn't incur any additional fees like other engines of the time.

You wouldn't use it nowadays anyway.

>>324079697

Ignore him. Unreal Engine isn't suited for 2D work.

That's like taking a porsche and using it to drive on bike lanes.

Fuck I mis read. Forgive my mistake.

>>324079756

Never made a game before either, im still struggling with learning gamemaker programming and I haven't even made a single game yet.

Don't even THINK about making a dream game at all.

Just focus on making random shit that works until you spend a very long time getting comfortable with programming or whatever you are using.

I hope you have more luck than me, cause right now I am in suffering/depression mode when it comes to learning how to do this shit.

Wish I had some sort of friend who was also into this shit who could help me.

>>324079136
Your work has an anime feel to it (which is not necessarily a bad thing, but it tends to end up being generic), probably due to electric guitars and violins (I might be wrong here). And it also has a fast battle pace.

Try doing something slower, like background music for, say, a desert level, or a spooky one, and we'll see

>>324079150
not bad i build 3d engine myself c++ and i can use c++ features in phyre

needs extending though im building ps4 game in a team of 150 sony wants us to use it so no choice

>>324078052
MS Paint a shit

Get you some Paint.net, son

>>324080098
>Wish I had some sort of friend who was also into this shit who could help me.

go find agdg you dumb shit. actually, don't

>>324080302

I mean yeah it is shit, but for basic sprite manipulation it gets the job done. Once you start getting into animations and layers and stuff yeah you should definitely think of upgrading.

change that unity default skybox.

i don't mind, but people will reply shit only because they spotted unity

>>324080767
Got any videos?
I had a similar idea where I make a sm4sh esque game, but with the MOBA business model of releasing new characters often, and new skins even more often. Also with more game modes.

>>324080937

It could just be me but it sounds like your melodies aren't in time with the beat. I don't know shit about music theory though, so I probably don't know what I'm talking about.

Still fast as fuck. Listen to this

This is good background music, imo. Yours takes too much attention, and doesn't really convey the atmosphere

>>324080640

Unity 2D.

Just put an asset on the unity store. It generated enum c# classes for you from files within a folder using their filenames, or from an SQLite database file. Takes a config file that lets you define what you want to do and where to put stuff.

Point is to let you use enums in code much easier which lets things be cleaner

I'd link it, but its not approved yet

Is that cellula automata? How'd you get the fog of war stuff to work? Looks really neat.

I'll try toying around with it and see if I can use it. If I end up with something, what should I name it?

No no, bad anon. You scale it up with the rest of your game in code, so you don't get nasty garbage like pic related.
