A friend and I are working on a RPG maker game but tilesets can be quite limiting, so rather than shilling out 80$ for two tiles that we need from someone's deviantart page I'd rather look for an anon to work with

It's a bit of an experiment on my part, with no cash-out expectation. The reason I ask is that much of these threads are quite technical in nature, with little discussion on story or the ideas, but I'm in a strange position with this.

That said: technical shit. Perhaps a combo of VN and roguelike, in a way. It's what I'm capable of, so what I'm comfortable with and can accomplish. Hopefully I can explain in such a way that it makes sense.

The story component is far future, humans have created AI's and stuck them in engineered beings. Like any specialized piece of equipment, they have focuses on different things depending on model. Processing speed and "hard coded" movement patterns for soldiers that mimics military training. Memory capacity for maintenance units to pull up blueprints and schematics. Pure digital security units that sit and monitor systems all day and act as thinking security. They are all, however, living beings with dependence upon humans for what keeps them alive. They often do trade assignments pretty regularly, so they are "formatted," as part of usual maintenance, every six months or less.

You play as a maintenance unit named Terra. You start out getting formatted, your new assignment on a research vessel, and end up getting a bad format due to system failures on the ship. That's basically where the game starts.

You find out the other "units" on the ship were the ones awake during the cryosleep for the humans, and that something happened on the trip that killed the sleeping ones off in their cryobeds. The units only had some human underlings left as providers, and due to their processing limitations and focus, went batshit. They started having general mental problems associated only with the "units," as the humans had no problems with the same issues. Digital hallucinations. "Hardware driver failures" causing them to lose sight, hearing, or their sense of pain.

When modeling how many different objects should I make for one model? Should I try to keep it minimal? Does a part with a different material justify a new object?

>>>167629375
How are you doing the customization? Do you jsut animate a skeleton and then put "armor" on the parts, basically?

>>167628039
Okay, so my major gripe with this game is that the control scheme is not at all comfortable to use. I guess it was designed with a mouse and keyboard in mind, but trying to use it with just keyboard (and a trackpad) really hurts. It's not comfortable to use Q, the spacebar, and wasd all with one hand with precision. It'd be MUCH better if you changed it to Shift, so that one's pinky could hit it instead of having to shift the ring finger between a and q all the time.

hitting both jump buttons at once is also kind of annoying but it's not the worst, not nearly as bad as the Q for long jump thing. Consider adding an option to use a third button, though.

(cont.)

The roguelike component would come from enemy encounters. As a maintenance unit, you are incapable of using weapons (the ship has DNA and programming locks on triggers). You have to defend yourself by altering the environment.

You can access doors to seal them off or crush physical things (there are non-physical enemies as well, so...). Enemies have different senses in the game they use, so you have to abuse them to sneak by or hide via changing something in the environment.

For example, some can only see heat. So, you can channel power to exposed cabling or fluid transfers. Some rely on sound and can't see, so if you move slow, you can slip by. The main baddy was a security unit that lost his senses, and "installed" cannibalized sensory items into his flesh to purge the ship. Cameras, heat scanners, microphones, etc. He cycles between them, to try and locate the hiding player if they encounter him on a particular floor.

In the same vein, your character can suffer corruptions of their drivers which can cause them to lose a sense until it's fixed. Once again, as maintenance, you can tap into other sensory items like cameras and so forth to "give" yourself that sense back while your subroutines work things out.

The overall end goal is to figure out what happened, and get the ship into a condition that the AI can send itself back to Earth, or otherwise escape in a way that can't be stopped from the quarantine protocols the Security implemented.

You can see how I'm at a loss for which type of game to actually class this as, as the story component is very much part of the gameplay.

Are there any games that do Star Trek style "reroute power from shields to phasers and fire on my mark" battle well besides FTL?

I fucking love that shit and want to include it in my game, and would like to see how it's been implemented elsewhere first.

>>167634867
You need to work more WITH your medium. Instead of trying to display complicated shapes, hinting at them is fine. Hard lines should be reduced to the diff between them and the next color (manual AA), and there should be some sort of sense of light. Indicate more complex objects instead of overtly drawing pixels for them.

I would say it's a good start, assuming that the character is supposed to be some sort of persia-ish defense sentry rhinoceros beetle.

I'm the second person you replied to.

Monetized mobile games, platform being Unity. Going to be using the big data solution I mentioned here >>167634848 for loadsaemone.

Genre / themes can really be whatever, my partnership is adept at programming and knows the engine very well. We're browsing artists for theme of their work, as the majority of what makes a mobile application good is presentation.

We're on the lookout for some artists to do low-poly models with simple textures (think DS) but are open to all mediums, if something vibes well with us we can create an idea around it.

We're also looking for an artist to render our company logo in the aforementioned low-poly 3d style. I've attached the part of the splash screen that we want rendered that was easily rippable from our twitter because I can't be assed to chase down the source file.

>>167636417

tl;dr
Your character is going robot crazy. Scavenge logs to figure shit out on how to fix them.

Find parts to allow you to escape and survive, while evading/hiding from enemies (impossible to kill them).

You can use wireless connection points in the rooms to operate systems to make surviving easier, because it lets you access items in the room that can be interacted with. (point and click).

Seal off doors to lock them in closets, vent them to space... Basically use anything you can connect to in the area to distract or debilitate the things you encounter.

tl;retard edition
survival point and click in spess with random ship and bad guys.

lets all collab together guys like a hivemind

>You need to work more WITH your medium. Instead of trying to display complicated shapes, hinting at them is fine.
Don't suppose you might have an example on hand of what you mean by hinting at details?

>Hard lines should be reduced to the diff between them and the next color (manual AA)
So, like, I should find a color between the two, and use it to space them out?

>There should be some sort of sense of light
How, if I'm not supposed to use more than four colors? At least that's what the other anons said.

>Indicate more complex objects instead of overtly drawing pixels for them.
An example here would also really help, but I super appreciate the assistance regardless.

>I would say it's a good start, assuming that the character is supposed to be some sort of persia-ish defense sentry rhinoceros beetle

depends what kind of game it is 2bh, if it's all action then it's very easy -- just have lots of shots of action going on. But if it's a story driven game, you're gonna have to approach it more like a movie and get some plot hooks into the viewer while also showing off the goddamn gameplay and why someone would rather play your game than read a similar book or watch a similar movie.

e.g. the LoL trailers vs the AC: I trailers
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzMnCv_lPxI
>a kinda lame CG movie about fantasy characters you don't care about doing things you don't care about, with zero gameplay footage or other explanation of what LoL is or why you would want to play it
vs
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEAKPx_FR-Q
>shows some cutscene stuff, but restricts itself to what potential players might already recognize and have feelings about (real-world planes or regions, space objects, talk of getting fame and money) but intersperses it with actual gameplay footage so you know what the fuck the game is

this doesn't mean that you have to restrict your game's content to real-world stuff that's identifiable by FILTHY NORMIES, but it does mean you have to pick and choose what you put in your trailer. AC: I has just as much autistic lore as LoL, but it's fundamentally about flying objects blowing eachother up, so it talks about meteors, railguns, and shows off fighter jets doing their thing, because that's about the only thing that will make a connection with a potential player who does not already care about AC as a whole or isn't otherwise on the hype-train from other source.

Disclaimer; I'm not a great pixel artist

I'll be pulling examples from this asset that I used as a the player character recently.

You want to use no more than 4 base colors, and the amount of blending you will be doing is entirely up to the artstyle of your game. Different shades of these base colors will be making up your highlights and shadows. In this example, though many semitones are used, there are only 2 major colors with 1 detail color; Orange, peach, and Navy.

An example of implicating more complex objects would be the eyes in this sprite. The left eye is 2 blue pixels, and the right is just one. There wasn't enough space to add whites, so none were added; they are implicated, however.

Adding context to a sprite can also make it look a lot better, pop your beetle on a background that suits him and it might be more obvious what you need to do to make him pop.

>>167637248
Where is your game?

>>167637594
So you made a deliberate choice that all armor you make will match up to that bone structure, huh? So you cannot have a mech that has a reverse-joint leg, for example?

It is certainly easier to animate that way, and you can just hotswap pieces a lot easier. How would you tackle a larger customization mode where you can have say, 4 legs, or one big arm and a small arm. Or guns for arms?

>>167637248

Well, just do 4 different rigs like that and you have almost every mech type covered, and with swapping parts around you can essentially do millions of variations easily, they might look all the pretty much the same though.

>>167637893
Well it's the same concept you just have to separate the main player skeleton into 4 pieces:
head+body, r-arm, l-arm, legs. Then in game you first glue the player skeleton together and then add the corresponding parts. Basically everything gets 3-4 times more complex.

Inverse Kinematics is also a possibility. You basically set up IK for your whole body and then just use math to control your animations.

It's not perfect though. For example when the player spawns the equipment-script has to find like 50 bones and then sort and parent them correctly, then when the game runs all bones have to be synchronized with each other, just parenting doesn't do it. Also, lets say I want to update the base-player skeleton, then I basically have to rewrite the garage, shop and in-game equipment script. So it's a fuckton of work and I am still looking for a way to make things more efficient

- The IR I made is a total garbage fire. It's basically a worse version of the AST, except more of a pain in the ass to work with, and totally useless for writing optimization passes. I might as well throw out all the transformations I've written for it and express them as transformations of the AST itself.
- Discovered a couple of very stupid mistakes in my memory model (that are only a problem because of some details of how I do concurrency) and now I have to rewrite something like half the VM. For fuck's sake.
+ Finally fixed the part of the theme music that's been vexing me for months. I feel good about this.

- I'm pretty behind schedule. Writing this introduction is taking more time than I thought it would.
- Definitely going to need to rewrite some of this. Lots of not very strong writing in here at the moment.

Will it ever be possible to tell a dark/tragedy/fantasy adventure story in a 3rd person game without it being compared to souls? Kind of unfortunate really.

Like put together a knight, a 3rd person view, some gothic architecture, and a subtle story and everyone will say it's a cheap souls rip-off.

Not to say I'm anywhere near capable of achieving FromSoft's quality/scope, but it's unfortunate for the indie scene.

I'm kinda alright at 3d modelling and such, nothing fancy but I'm good enough to make stuff for my game, was wondering how useful learning sculpting would be. I'm pretty bad at texture painting, will painting on the sculpt be easier to get a decent looking texture with?

>>167644590
I think you're mostly unsure what it is you're trying to depict. For small characters with few colors, they need a few clear and defining features. Mario is the best example. Overalls. Mustache. Hat.

Your guy is just, all head to toe black, and a yellow visor. The initial design will have as much impact as its execution.

Also, a pose "facing away" like that will only make sense in context. Like, you can face down or up. Or, the character is elaborated more at another point in the game, so players can just use the sprite as a short hand for the more detailed version.

First attempt at a walk cycle. It feels off somehow, so I'm going to have to keep working on it. Her hair and wings should be moving too. It's fun to do art again after avoiding it for so long.

>>167646693
her headbob should follow a sine wave, and also wave a bit side to side with the steps

>>167646681
I'd be more detailed, but everyone in the last thread said not to use more than 4 colors or make a sprite bigger than 32x32.

>>167646693
The arm motion is off. They need to pendulate opposite the legs. In frame 4, the arms starts retracting while the front leg hits its farthers back point. The front arm should hit its furthers forward position at that point.

Also, the bounce isn't working, would probably be better to keep her head level

>>167646814
I'm not saying be more detailed, I'm saying make your design more simple, clear and readable. The sprite is never gonna be readable if your design isn't.

My first impression is that it would be really great with a dual monitor setup. As it is right now, the improved workflow is nice, but I've found it can actually be annoying with a regular sized-monitor. The bookmark feature is nice though

It did seem faster to compile, but that could also be because of a smaller project.

My overall takeaway was that it was mostly a matter of getting used to it, and I'm so stuck in my ways in GMS:1 that I'm not seeing huge advantages. That being said the room editor is notably better, though I've heard from many that it's not as improved as it could have been. I'm mostly using coding practices I would have used in the first edition anyway, but there are minor GML updates that I like. I doubt I'll buy the full license, at least for Whimp

Oh I can totally see the appeal of the layout, and I was thrilled to try it. I just ended up liking being able to resize and drag windows more easily, and ultimately found it pretty clunky to navigate around, given some weird decisions about laptop mode (like that you cant easily pan or zoom within a script)

And thanks so much, I'm doing it because it's fun! Right now I'm at a weird point where I'm deciding some big things like how to implement story, cutscenes, level-editor, etc. But I fully intend to keep progress posted whenever it's made

it's been a feature since day one of this project but it became less and less relevant when I started giving Blaz too many ranged options. One of the goals of this massive update/overhaul is to restore focus to Blaz's sword and chain, though I worry how players will work with it, the chain has its own button, but mouse1 and mouse2 already have the job of using primary and secondary fire, so I use the F key for it, though I guess players could bind it to a mouse button if they have more.

Have a peek at what this project was like when I first started it.

As I've told others, there's actually an old version of this project you can grab off the ZDoom forums, but the current version is a bit of a clusterfuck, I went full retard with random item spawns and balance is really jacked up. I've learned some pretty valuable lessons from all this though, and soon the random item spawns will get removed, though each hero is only gonna have two weapons, I plan on replacing Doom's weapon spawns with items that augment your moveset.

So like the shotgun pickup is replaced with a scroll that gives him the ability to throw his sword, for example. I've also got a failsafe built in where if the player is separated from his sword too long, it comes back after 30 seconds or so. I always hated losing my fucking crowbar in Sven Co-op because of that shit.

>>167649112
Some of my nicer looking assets, like the arm cannon were made by some talented as fuck people within the Doom community, though the sword's HUD sprites are actually model rips from a Neptunia model pack from Gmod, I'd pose the sword at certain angles, then edit them down to a Doom resolution (usually 320x200) in GIMP to fit into the hands. As of late I've been learning how to do animation using Asperite, quite a few of the sword transformation animations were done by me.

>>167652315
I thought about just ignoring you, but I'll give you one more (You). It depends on the project. Sometimes you want to give the players what they want over what you want. In that case, if they want white, you give them white. But of course, you seem far too narrowminded to even consider that your own preferences may not always be desirable, so I doubt you even thought about that. Have a nice day nodevving.

If you are an engine dev, this could give you the basic idea:

With that said, every day without my collab pal responding is another nail into my heart. I know he's a cool guy and he's just busy with life, but I'm still scared shitless what could I do without him.

I guess one day I'll just give up and whore myself to the first idea guy with a handful of assets.

Really, guys. If you want to 1MA, start with becoming an artist first. Or find an idea which is doable with whatever visual skills you have.

Thank you for reading my blog.

Mostly more level building work. I really want to finish a first pass at the entire world, then I can focus on polishing it and refining it. There are only a few more major areas that need to be built. I'm leaning into the design idea of giving people essential things along the primary path, but providing extra items and shortcuts to those who pay attention to the world and explore it a bit more.

I'm in a good groove splitting my time between level design, and programming stuff. Most of the code I'm working on is shit that no one would ever notice, when it's working properly that is. But if its not working it would stand out. Millions of small things.

Making a strategy game. I'm very insistant that the AI won't do things the player couldn't in the same situation. I know that the general consensus is to build the world around the AI instead of trying to make the AI react to the world, but in strategy I feel that this is not necessary apart from abstracting the world to a point that information can be understood by human and computer alike.

>>167654587
I will most likely implement a "AI: CHEAT" difficulty akin to SupCom. but I will definitely try how a realistic approach feels. Just because I know the AI doesn't have access to certain information does not necessarily mean it feels like it doesn't.

>>167654487
Also, my hope for the game is that there are a few people who really dive in and likes it a lot. When I demoed it in person, there were two people who played it for 30-60 minutes. They figured out how to get past the end of the demo and explored the world until there was a mistake in the level design that prevented them from going farther. That was a pretty amazing feeling, watching them play (without them noticing me). If I can just get a few people like that who appreciate what I did, I will be happy. I don't expect to make any profit off this thing.

Anyway, that's just what I think about when I start feeling lost.

Good to see you back. How's the web build performace; no more stuttering?

Other than that your sprites look good when inspected individually, but looking at the entire frame, it feels like a horrid mess of colors.

>>167654682
you are going to have a very bad time trying to make an AI that plays humanlike, it's going to end poorly, it's going to be very stupid and overcomplex, and act randomly

you should look into how the TA/supcom AI actually works, it's really very simple actually

PA goes an extra mile by adding checks to build orders, pretty simple system again

Web build isn't great, but its not ultimately going to be distributed like that so I'm not too worried. As for the colors, I dunno. I want it to be intensely saturated. Not sure if thats what you're referring to. Feel free to do a color edit if you want, the palette is small so it shouldn't be hard.

I should add that I'm doing something turn-based, so my AI won't be under timepressure. I am however aware that especially strategic AI is incredibly difficult to create. Nevertheless I'm excited to try it.

Are there any specific resources you can recommend? The way you describe it it seems you have analysed / read about TA/SC/PA AI.

Time to channel this anger into gamedev.

>>167655001
mainly what I know is from AI modders, including sorian himself, but also some old articles from the other devs, scattered for the winds

but it's not hard to describe, basically the TA AI has a weighted list of units to build, and then it sends those units in predefined groups called platoons toward the enemy spawn

supcom works much the same way but takes into account adjacency when placing structures, and I think it has certain premade base plans
FA adds the concept of map markers for pathfinding and expansions

supcom2 adds a neural net for platoon control, and as I said PA adds a list of checks for what to build so it's not just a simple weighted list but can be conditional, allowing it to be smarter, like not building more radars if there already is coverage, and building power plants as needed, or extra factories if there is surplus resources

there's nothing particularly fancy or humanlike about any of them, which is probably why it's one of the few RTS AI's that can hold up to at least a medium level player without hax

Metric system makes sense, I don't care if it comes from Zeta, Zed is a quirky name for a letter that sounds retarded and doesn't fit at all. Its extremely hypocritical to make fun of the Imperial system for being random and non functional and then just being like "Dude zed is fine it totally doesn't sound awkward at all"

Added a very basic container menu. Right now its very basic but it doesn't crash terribly - essentially did the minimum to get it working without imploding when I right click something.

Gonna try to make the window behave like a container next with buttons for 'add all', filling the window dynamically depending on the container by grabbing the information from a database and bug fixes.
