die

how did the last one end so fast

i made a tiny progress on build system abnd thread gone


i have a nutribullet now so i spent the last 2 days blending vegs fruit nuts berries and doing house chores but now i do progress on making cmake copy SDL.dll into the project folder instead of having to do it manually, so that you click


"configure, generate, open project" and then hit the green arrow and it builds and runs

because before after building it would give a .dll error and you have to manually copy in the dll

so this means when i delete everything and reconfigure it goes faster

>>171919978
also now I have a configure option to enable openmp, everything else the same, without it I get 300fps on benchmark, with it I get 1000fps on benchmark,

so openmp is approx 3x speedup on a graphics heavy loop for me

So this is how /agdg/ dies

New game. Graphics are all made by me and going to change once the actual code is done. My working title is "Shambles 2", but that's probably going to change too. Shambles 2 because I worked on two text-based predecessors before starting this one, both of which I scrapped due to being shit. First time was because it wasn't modular at all, second time was because text adventures, especially like the one I was making, are pretty shit for [CURRENT YEAR].

It's a zombie-themed RPG. Right now I have only rudimentary combat done, but I have bigger plans for the future. You'll move around a randomly generated map (Basically just scattering some cities, towns, gas stations, etc around the map) with the ultimate goal of building an airplane so you and your friends can escape to safety. The characteristics of the zombie horde will also be randomly generated, with features like attack speed, health, etc, coming down to a coin toss. This is simply so that you'll still have to experiment and observe a little each playthrough. I think this would lend the game a little more of that sense of the unknown, though I'd like to know what you all think.

Base building will be fairly simple, just establish a base and build upgrades for better protection, workshops, storage, and of course, an airstrip for your plane. I plan on keeping the game fairly grounded in reality, with a little bit of a mad science twist. Since the game is set in the UK, firearms will be rare and ammo will be scarce, so you'll need to make use of improvised weapons. For instance, an early game laser SMG that's worse than any proper gun, but feeds from commonly available AA batteries. Grenades and other consumables would be used from the inventory, but I don't have that implemented yet. I'd also like to get a little console on the top left corner for a rolling feed of combat actions.

With the stats system (NYI), you get seven stats, guns, medical, engineering, survival, melee, stealth, charm, and will. Guns, obviously, determines accuracy with firearms. Melee improves melee damage. Medical allows medical items to be more effective. Engineering unlocks new items you can build. Survival increases your health and carry capacity. Stealth reduces the number of zombies that will show up at any one point (Influenced by # of zombies in the area, party size, etc) as well as how likely you are to escape from a fight. Charm is basically Charisma. Buy things for cheaper, pass speech checks. Will is a more general stat and determines leadership potential. Stats are on a 20-point scale and you get 3 points to level up per level. Kill enemies and get loot to gain XP.

One big gimmick is player infection; all characters can become zombies, and gameplay as a zombie will be deeper than most other games. How you did as a human determines how you'll do as a zombie; Survival still directly translates into more health, Medical allows you to resist the infection for longer or spread the virus more potently, Melee lets you hit harder, Stealth lets you get the drop on humans (Effectively reducing the number that show up), Charm lets you "seduce" humans into simply surrendering, and Will determines how much control you have over your zombified character. The idea is that since you're going to be losing the game fairly often, losing the game might as well be a little bit of fun.

Not only am I almost entirely done with the programming aspect of my game, but I'm also almost done with the assets, even though 60% of them aren't my best work. All I need now is another tension-wrench button for the skeumorphic assets.

Your party cannot level up, but you can take skills to improve their effectiveness. At the beginning they will be more than enough, but as the game progresses they will become less useful unless you take the skills to improve them, increasing their health, having them be more accurate, etc. though they will never be as effective as you if you put points into yourself. It's a question of quantity vs. quality. Having heavy lifters in your party simply improves your total capacity. Each individual would have their own randomly generated stats, which are static. Initially they'll be superior to yours, but you'll eventually surpass them.

Each class of weapon has its own upsides and downsides, and there will be plenty of choice between them. You will come into possession of better weapons through the course of the game, either through scavenging bandits, finding them, or making them yourself. Firearms are the best overall weapons, due to their decent damage and accuracy, but ammo can be scarce to come by (This is the UK, remember).

Energy weapons feed off of batteries, which are much more common than bullets, but deal less damage. The classes of energy weapon are "Laser" (Basic weapons, feed from AA-cells, poor damage, ok accuracy), "Gauss" (Poor accuracy, takes custom batteries, mostly shotguns), and "Pulse" (Upgraded lasers, similar but with infinite ammo and needs time for damage to ramp back up).

HE weapons deal mediocre damage to all enemies in the enemy party. AP launchers deal phenomenal damage to one enemy (e.g. Panzerfaust, M72, RPG-7) but have very expensive/rare ammo, or only fire once and cost a lot. They are your emergency use lifelines - use them to save yourself from an overwhelming individual, like armored bandits. Melee weapons depend on your stats for damage, meaning that they're poor early on but excellent later. They also usually have very high accuracy.

>>171924306
Each weapon can have a "mod" attached to alter it (Actually just converting the gun into a different one), like in Battlefield 1. For instance, a Scoped hunting rifle would have more maximum accuracy, but worse accuracy recovery. A Burst Fire assault rifle would have only three shots rather than the standard five for automatics, but quicker accuracy recovery and better accuracy. A Suppressed gun would have worse damage, but improve player Stealth. Things like that.

The two main groups you'll fight are zombies and bandits. As the game progresses, bandits get better weapons and armor while zombies get better melee strength and more health. I'm using both Damage Threshold and Damage Resistance for armor, so the way you'll deal with both will be different. Bandits will also get armored vehicles - jeeps with HMGs, APCs, IFVs, and eventually MBTs. Deal with them using AP launchers, your own armored vehicles, or just by running away. Of course, running will usually have your player character safe, but your friends may not be as lucky. Escape rolls are calculated for each individual, and this applies to both facing zombies and bandits. A friendly may also come back later as a zombie.

I also would like to stress that I don't really have a lot of assets done, I'm mostly focusing on the actual programming side so that I can make or commission superior assets in the future that I can slot into my existing systems. The art style is mostly there because it looks acceptable and is easy and quick to design for.

So, yeah. What do you think about any of these mechanics? The game is made with Pygame, so I'll still need to optimize it pretty aggressively, but for now it works okay.

I cannot stop thinking about the soundtrack. The music is so intentionally ugly that it becomes memorable. The sounds are aggressive and jarring, but there’s thought put into how aggressive and jarring it needs to be. It reflects what the game has to say about toxic masculine behaviors, and their inherent roots in male insecurity. These kinds of soundtrack metaphors are so god-damn resonant that it leaves me inspired to action.

how to find someone to make music

i have money

>>171928897
In my completely uneducated opinion: Isn't Blender made for animation while Unity only has it as some added on basic feature? Sounds like you'd want to use the program with more options in the long run.

>>171930124
It means your code needs to generate levels using 30x30 sprites and then you change your mind and desire 30x15 sprites because you need a bit more changeability for vertical heights of objects, you tech illiterate moron.

If you don't use proper placeholders until late dev you'll find you're hard pressed to break out of the stupid assumptions you made (born from aforementioned lack of placeholders)

meme as in they mostly sound the same, listen to stuff from any final fantasy or tales game

but it's ok, you should actually play many genres of games to get a feel for what kind of music they generally use. i find that a lot of people that try to make game music end up composing things that would never be put in a game (long ass build ups, doesn't loop, etc). it's frustrating.

You could have it so wood in proper storage last forever, and if there's no space left they stack it outside where it degrades. Similarly food in proper storage (salted and sealed) can last for quite a while.
I don't think material degradation would add much difficulty, unless winter is a part of your simulation in which case arranging sufficient food storage might add a bit of difficulty.

I have a bit of a dilemma on my hands.

I have units in my game, and I believe all of them will have inventories and equipment containers.
Instead of putting those containers within the unit class, I moved them to their own adapter. I can't remember exactly why I did it. I THINK it was because I only want the adapter manipulating those containers and wanted to encapsulate the data (otherwise the unit class gets too cumbersome).
I want the adapter to be the only thing manipulating those containers (through events) and I've done that successfully.

However, now I want to have status effects that can afflict units. I'm torn between having them all the status effect containers in their own adapter, just like items and equipment, or to have them in the unit component, like I have health and other unit-based attributes.

I guess this is more a philosophical dilemma

I get the feeling that those Polish game distribution companies basically just crack games and then offer a percentage of their profits to the old game companies. Either that or game companies just agree because piracy is so rampant in Poland.

https://venturebeat.com/2014/11/22/the-birth-and-growth-of-the-polish-game-industry/
This is interesting. They tried to outsource console porting to France and the Frenchies were so lazy
>“We are good at hard work,” he told me. “People in Poland can work hard if they believe in something. I worked on The Witcher, previously. I’ve seen people pushing to the limits to finish the game and deliver the best game ever. At the very same time, the company that was working for us in France, they came to work, like, at 11 a.m., left at 4 p.m., and they were quite surprised that there were no results. They spent half the time drinking coffee.”

I don't care about your opinions on scanlines. When you'd hate literally any scanline filter that anyone could post then there's no reason to present your opinion as being anything other than "I don't like scanlines".

Recreate the look of that cell replication computer model from 'The Thing'

can someone give me a rundown of what its like to switch from Unity to UE4?

like how different is C# from C++, how different are the engine libraries, is it hard to get used to, are are they pretty similar?

I already started my project in Unity 5 but the shaders and lighting are so goddamn ugly no matter how I fiddle with the settings. and it doesn't support vertex painting without $100 asset packages either, which is really frustrating and makes need way more textures.

Not that much. Most effort will go into balancing the RNG.

>>171941906
the coding is easy and straightforward

the hard part is design: writing all the formulas for battles and making sure they're balanced, having a good database of weapons, armour, enemies, spells, etc making sure its fun to play and each experience is varied but not too random, making sure there's good progression in dungeons, etc which is not only difficult but takes a LOT of playtasting and a LOT of time

Bloom is just taking the bright portions of an image and blurring them so that they bleed a bit. Usually it's done as part of tone mapping for HDR rendering so that it appears as though some pixels are brighter than what the screen can actually display. I wasn't aware people were able to deduce the engine from how the bloom looks, though.

>>171948705
You know what's real unnecessary purism?

here's some advice to take it further
- pillow shading, look it up and don't do it
- remove the stray 1 px trunk lines
- suggest leaf shapes with the lightest green color but don't fall in the trap of drawing every leaf, instead suggest leafs with the edge of your blocks of color

shape is good

Dude, no one here is all that particularly talented. Most of what makes a sprite look good is a lot of tinkering and time, and following conventions on color distribution and palettes. Find palettes that look pleasing (as in the orbs above), use them, and try to emulate what they are doing and you can achieve a lot.

Looks awful desu maybe even worse than before

>>171951646
I'm not convinced this business model works for anything but porn games

>>171951898
It's bicubic probably. It's just a mock-up.

>>171951898

>>171951630
I thought of making a game with just the simple pixel art style maybe I will

Looks blurry as fuck. Did you scale up 2x with bilinear/bicubic before scaling the rest of the way? If not then you just have too many shades of green and too many smooth transitions/gradients between pieces.

help

>>171952556
Oh. Thanks, Anon.
I was about to try making some hands or maybe an arm canon.

I'm up again now - I made it last night, but didn't have energy left to post it, so I posted it now instead.

>>171952797
what with?

>>171952701
minecraft didn't use patreon and didn't use a business model similar to patreon

its business model was more like early access on steam

>>171951795
all the green stuff looks like absolute fucking shit mate

looks fine as long as it fits with your other stuff

STALKER but good!

>>171952776
I'll have you know there is a new lorem ipsum for the digital age

>>171952565
That actually hurt my eyes there were so many jump cuts.

Sometimes it feels like devs intentionally make their game look bad, Quake Champions trailers have the same issue.

Working on a high poly so I can stop using other's people's content.

>>171952905
No you won't have me know because I won't listen.

>>171952885
So STALKER?

I think it already exists

>>171952565
but why

>>171952885
It's S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and it's already good.

>anything but porn games
it doesnt even work for them 2bh.
I mean they still make money but /eventually/ people are going to realize how flawed going through the same content every month to get to 1-2 new scenes/whatever. Atleast with VNs/trainers.

Open ended stuff like Rack2 is a little different.

But the KS bubble lasted for awhile so we have another 5 years atleast before Patreonbux dry up.

Except it literally works for every single porngame with a following on Patreon.

I did a thing.
Didn't change palette or leaves or anything, just shuffled the general shape.

zombie survival game?

anyone got a skilled multi-million dollar dev team they can lend me for a year or five?

>>171954516
pm me

>>171954284
Im not saying literally, just conceptually.
Of course shitters will still pledge for a 5 year alpha that will probably never get done.
Im just saying for a complete game patreon is flawed. But I also realize many people see it as more a service and less about getting a complete game.
Though 1-5/month for a few scenes is pretty terrible.
>>171954276
Her stuff is okay if you like the genre, but in the context of the trailer it just doesnt fit at all.

Farm recall is working properly now. I think I'm going to work on cooking next.

So like, I know basic coding and design. I really want to make a game like Dark Fall or Cosmology of Kyoto, but I literally can't draw to save my life. What's the fastest, cheapest way to get graphics? Collaboration is out of the question, artists are flowers and snowflakes.

>>171954662
It's western AAA marketing, at least, though the game's writing is basically on par with it.

>>171954662
No just the Gearbox QUALITY™

>>171954578
how do i pm on 4chan googlem senpai

>>171954254
thanks a lot Anon this is greatly appreciated and helpful. Hopefully this will make me a better pixel artist

>>171954751
The biggest appeal of Cosmology of Kyoto was the art. You want to make an art-centric game without making art or working with an artist? Can you prove you're not a shitposting retard?

>>171954915
not gonna make it

>>171954751
Andrew Price learned to draw pretty decently in 6 months on a bet. Definitely above release-quality.
