You are right, but the original poster is just doing the usual "artist looking for programmer" baiting routine.

It goes like this:
- Artist looking for programmer
- Here I am! Do you have any reference/ideas?
- First please, tell me what tools do you use for game making
- I use GM/Löve/Unity/Unreal/Custom/Whatever
- Ah, I see, sorry, but not interested

I've been a longtime lurker on this general and I'm finally coming close to finishing my first game. It's a android app called Bricktionary where it's similar to Pictionary where one user is the artist and other players have to guess the word they are representing but rather than being able to draw, the artist has to manipulate randomly-chosen shapes as a fun challenging twist. How's it sound?

Pic is a demo of the game screen (though the UI isn't finalized and obviously the word will be hidden from non-artists)

Not that simplistic but close. Just a simple trunk made out of a subdivided square and leaves are just a bunch of planes cobbled together.
No clue how AO works but I'll look into it.
Gonna re-do the texture again too, with more randomness. I'm sick of doing it again but I don't really have a choice. Probably going to make it look more like the first idea I had, on the left.
Thanks lads.

I'm looking to make a fairly simple little RPG. Is Gamemaker 1 suitable for this?

Any good guides on using it, or do I not even need to bother with that since my idea is so bread and butter.
Also I'm not looking to sell it, just a fangame, so I'm not above just pirating whatever.

RPGMaker is the ultimate in "just a fangame" "fairly simple little" RPGs. GM would be the next step up from that, which would require more work but give you more flexibility.

>Combat Math
come back when you have math combat.

2 hours left in agdg 72 hour game jam. It's crunch time.

>>172358381
Sounds good then.
I kinda wanted to make it similar to Earthbound, and it will be anyways in design choice aside from the combat. I'd make the combat work the same way too, but I don't think GM or RPG Maker can emulate that can they?

>>172358646
I know more about EB's story than its combat, but I'm told it has some kind of timing mechanic involved? GM could manage that, RPGMaker I really have no clue (though there is a general specifically for RPGMaker that you could ask, should you decide to go that route).

I've been using unreal engine for a couple years now; is unity honestly easier to work with ?

either way i'm not gonna switch over because i only know c++.

>>172359084
Earthbound has a rolling HP Bar and yeah, there's the timing to the music to do more damage. I'm less interested in the latter, and more in the former. You can take fatal damage, but as long as you pop a healing item or spell, or end the combat before the HP rolls to 0, the damage will stop.

Where should I put my efforts if I can't art, learning vector art or pixel art?

Hey, all. First time here, though I don't know what took me so long to discover this place. I'm also in the /v/ thread, so I hope you'll forgive my redundancy.

What'cha think of this? I've been working on it for about a week and a half. It began as a prototype for a dev studio in Cali who wanted to test my skills, but now that I've submitted it I'm wondering if I should keep going. I have a lot of fun messing around in it, even after I've worked on it for so many hours these past few days, so I take that as a good sign.

That said, it's all the more reason to use it, because you're getting an advantage over the plebs queuing up with Unity. If you actually downloaded the engine and checked out the source code, you'd see just how powerful it can be; all it lacks is fame.

I have used the fucking engine. Any 3D game engine that supports the use of Python is trash. Python is unstructured garbage and although it may be easy to learn and use, which I thank the creator for creating as a GATEWAY programming language to help you get into it, it will teach you bad programming habits that you will end up using when you need to learn a real language that has value to it. Not using semi-colons, not organizing code placement, getting used to short names for operators, like "print()", shit like that will totally throw you off the path of good programming. So yeah, any engine that supports the legitimate use of an un-organized, weak, slow, limited engine is trash.

>It warrants good habits
What I mean is that good habits aren''t inherent to a programming language. Things like semicolons or print don't have enough of an impact to make people retards for life that won't be able to pick another language/better practices after that.

>fucking with nintendo consoles
OOOH... wew, lad. You might wanna settle down before you realize you are going to put a game on an empty store that is basically the wild west. No one buys Nintendo consoles except young children who were raised to not tolerate violence anymore.

>>172371674
Well, that's sort of true for the print thing since it's a big difference, but the first language you COMPLETELY learn will stick out in your head. Well, not completely, you can never completely learn a language, but to the point where all the main features that are used constantly in a script in that language makes sense to you. Python uses no semi-colons, which if you do enough programming in Python, it'll stick in your head to leave the end of the line blank. Once your main programming habits are established, you aren't fucked for life, it just takes a whole lot of training to get out of. Having bad development habits will make it harder for you to learn to use languages that do use semi-colons and stuff. You will remember not to put semi-colons at the end. It's like learning Martial Arts while being fat, it makes everything harder. You know what I mean?

>>172371919
>>172372131
Actually, it isn't hard to learn if you are up for it. I know a video on YouTube that's an hour and 10 minutes long by Derek Banas named "C++ Programming", and it'll teach you everything you need to know about C++ in it. It teaches you all the operators one at a time, so by the time you finish the learning and remember most of it, you'll already be able to see ways to combine operators and variables to make unique functions. It's so cool when it all comes together. I copied down what he did and took notes over what he explained about all of it using C++ comments in a .cpp file, I suggest you do to. I only had to watch it once, most people have to watch it 5 times, copying down and taking notes brings it down to one before you have memorized most of it. Start practicing right after.

Not interested in a flame war but I'm curious about a couple things

2) When should I establish an LLC

Honestly? I'd publish to a Nintendo console just because it'd feel like a dream to have a video game on a console made by the company that defined my childhood.

Obviously it's not profitable, and is a laughable goal for the average jaded /agdg/ dev, but I won't fault anyone who wants to fulfill a dream.

>>172373294

What's the matter anon, not as talented as Derek Yu?

>>172373294
1) It's mostly personal preference which programming paradigm you use. Whichever makes sense to you, use that one.
2) As soon as contracts are involved.
3) Talent is a meme. Discipline and work are what you need.
4) Art is what grabs people's attention, so generally yes.

796KB, 622x622px

I have a better lock on system than I had before. Originally it simply prioritized the closest angle, no matter the distance. Now it does a weird mix I guess? It weighs each enemy by distance+angle_difference^2 and then picks the enemy with the lowest number, which feels better than the last one, but it's definitely not perfect. I don't always target the one I want to.

>>172374619
Can you evaluate a little bit more? I am gonna do it for you, but I am not sure what you want me to do.

Here's my game loop, in essence it's a roguelike.

You start in a town and raid underground dungeons that are randomised. While in the town the shopkeepers are randomised from a list. There are static story and plotlines that occur randomly for replayability, trying to complete x story under y circumstances and you have a lot of character progression.
How do you make combat not a snoozefest in a top down hack n slash, is it in the reactions? A visual recognition that your actions have effects?

>>172374270

>>172374536
I'm fucking around with PivotAnimator aka stick figure animations the program to sort of create skeletons for my animations but I still can't draw for fucking shit so even if I practice and get the animation skeletons down I won't know what to do past that besides stick some clothes on the stick figures and weapons.

But I doubt someone would buy or even be interested in a game with stick figures as the characters if it isn't a quick flash game.

>>172374741
>I am gonna do it
Shit, dude. Thanks.

I need a script that will target the mid/lower back of a quadrupedal rig and will make it slowly rotate towards the bone above it in the hierarchy as the dog changes direction, thus creating a sense that the backside has weight to it. HOWEVER, this script's effects should not compromise the dog's animations. Is that specific enough?

Again, thanks man.

>>172373417
>doing something to impress 5-year-old you
thats fucking pathetic

>>172374787
>There are static story and plotlines that occur randomly for replayability, trying to complete x story under y circumstances and you have a lot of character progression.

Could you elaborate more, maybe with an example?

>>172374787
First, I had it set to auto-post and I was typing a sentence out when it hit 0. I was gonna say "When I was little, I wanted to be a dev at Sega on the Sonic Team. Sonic was actually good back them. Then uh, Sega stopped making consoles, and stopped being good in general. We wouldn't get another great Sonic game until Sonic Unleashed so far later that I was too old to get re-interested."

I got a few ideas for your combat:
-Yeah, have reactions
-Add body reactions too, like in that one game, Fate, that came pre-installed to Windows Vista/Windows 7 Home Editions
-Combos are a must
-Unlockable moves
-More weapons you can find in raids or steal from dead enemies
-Motivation to not just wall-glitch passed enemies would be some kind of currency dropped at the dead bodies of enemies that can be used at the shops you mentioned
-Here is an original idea, if you are attacking and they are attacking, each attack animation will morph into a stalemate animation that has you making mouse circles to break out it and you have the upper/lower hand depending on if you circled your mouse enough to warrant winning it.

>>172374714
Thanks for the words of encouragement. And at the point I think you're referring to, I was actually trying to lock on to the guy on the right. I should have explained how locking on works better.
Black arrow = Player direction
Red arrow = Attempted aim direction
Blue line = Aim direction

When not locked on, the aim direction is the same as the attempted aim direction (AKA the direction the right stick is in). When the right stick isn't in use, the attempted aim direction is the same a player direction. When locking on, the lock on angle is based upon where the player is currently aiming. In the gif, you can see I'm aiming at the guy on the right, despite being near the guy on the left, so it locks on to the guy on the right.

>>172375202
Would you like me to do it in a specific programming language, or are you using Unreal nodes?

>>172375623
I'm in Unity. C# would be preferable. It'd be even better if there were lots of customizable variables such as turn speed, and whatnot.

Home from my cushy high-paying job (networking is everything kids) and can't wait to dig into my hobby, Game Development. Shit is so cash.

>>172375794
Okay. The easiest way I can achieve this is if you gave me the names of the butt bone and all the bones in the spine from top to bottom.

>>172350384
>WHAT DID I SAY? WHAT DID I TELL YOU TO DO?

>>172376040
Could you make those variables public so I can just plug 'em in? But if that's easier for you, I suppose:

Dalmatian_Spine_01SHJnt
Dalmatian_Spine_02SHJnt
Dalmatian_Spine_03SHJnt
Dalmatian_Spine_TopSHJnt

>>172376040

You could just make a public list of GameObjects so you just plug in the bones and can use it with different spine lenght depending ho many bones.

>>172376471
It's fine, they'll be public because what I am doing is adding a custom function to your dog script that does this.

Would I be right if I said that the "Dalmation_Spine_TopSHJnt" is the butt bone?

>>172376734
It's the other way 'round, actually. 01 is the butt.

>>172376717
I am doing something different. The back has to be able to curve like the McDonald's Arches for it to actually look like a dog rotating.

>>172376734
I am just gonna go ahead and ask for your movement script. I'll edit it and give it back to you with the results. Hopefully that will be the last thing I need from you.

How viable is Haskell for video games?

>>172377263
You look like you packed some malware you made with a YouTube tutorial in that game file.

>>172377332
Not very. Use C++.

Elaborate. /g/ says Haskell is better than C++.

>>172377445
AHA! So you acknowledge that it.

I'm actually just using NavAgent for the dog's movement, so there's not much I can give you in that regard. You're not controlling the dog. You're playing fetch with him.

/g/ knows nothing for a board that is meant to. I know, C++ is better, it's faster than 95% of programming languages, it has better operators, is more known and has more help to go along with it, has custom libraries you can install for more operators. Like graphics.h, that's a library meant for game development since it imports images as sprites, allows you to animate a series of sprites with a while loop and such stuff.

>>172377037
this the dungeon break dev?

>>172377710
OH, okay, I completely understand now. The dog locks onto the ball and then fetches it, but it's butt doesn't move with it at the same time it's body does like a real dog's would. So would you like me to have the dog track the ball too? If so, I may need the name of the ball.

How the fuck do you read the Steamspy charts? How the fuck can a game suddenly have 30% less owners months later?

>>172375262
Alright so there's these brothers right?

You come across this guy in one of the shopkeeper slots, and it's just some kid npc sitting there. He's a bit loopy and is begging for money and you can see he's already got a hat full of cash. You can either rob the kid or give him some coin, or maybe a third option if you have the liar skill or something. Robbing the kid results in the brother suddenly showing up and he's a medium difficult bossfight, that drops a decent and consistent weapon when you kill him. So the event is random, but the loot is static. If you decided to help instead, the brother shows up as he did before but now ropes you into a questline of sorts, that will result in a different loot prize at the end. The player has two options to explore on different runs and can then later use their meta knowledge to min/max their builds when going for later game runs. Perhaps the older brother becomes a companion instead and utilises his weapon himself?

>>172375438
What do you mean by wall glitch?

At this stage I want my game to feel a bit like dungeons of dredmor with it's ludicrousness and hotline miami with it's combat

>>172378487
They are estimates

>>172378487
the number after the ± is how useless the estimate is. the bigger it is, the more useless.

>>172378337
So all you want is for the butt to trail behind? Okay. One more thing I will need for that is the name of the nose bone. When the head of the dog tracks the throwable,the nose will be pointed at it. I will need that as a rotation reference.

>>172377037
Can you give him an uppercut attack where he does a big spatula flip that launches enemies into the air?

Also helps them cook on the other side I suppose

>>172378552
Clipping through walls. A common find in video games. Easy to clip into the wall and walk in a certain direction, causing you to slide across the wall (or if you are unlucky and the dev didn't collision better, you will fall out into the void on the other side of the wall if there is one).

Oh, dang. This script will also double as a head-look script? Neato!

The bones from the base of the neck to the mouth are as follows:
Dalmatian_Neck_01SHJnt
Dalmatian_Neck_02SHJnt
Dalmatian_Neck_TopSHJnt
Dalmatian_Neck_JawSHJnt

Also, what did you think of the game?

>>172378950
What is the name of the throwable object? It's need if it's going to be refenced.

>>172378753
I had actually considered doing that. That would be pretty sweet.

>>172379115
I like to make it a reference to any transform that you give it, so the dog can look at the toy, but also at you if there's no toy to look at. However, if you need the toy specifically, it's any object with the "Toy" tag.

>>172378950
>>172379115
I honestly can't tell if one of you are retarded or if this is just the work of one master memester

>tfw try 3d modeling because I can't draw at all then comes the artistic part where you have to see how to smooth out your models to make them look good

why is life suffering?

>>172379402
So that's easy, I will just make a vector (I would make an array, but it's easier in-case you want to add more to the toy-list, a vector is exactly like an array, except it's size can change) of all the toys used in game AND so he looks at you, the player, and get a rotation reference to all items in the vector. So I will require ALL toy names that the dog will chase after and the name of your character in the vector. I will also add some if and else if statements to make sure it only looks at the player if the toys haven't been thrown.

>>172379523
Neither. We are legitimately collaborating to give his dog head tracking and butt physics. Something you don't see everyday on AGDG, teamwork.

>>172379743
collab or loomis, your call

>>172379743
I know this feel so much. I'm trying to push myself to learn how to draw just so I can get my vidya done

The feel is too strong I grind everyday practicing 3d modeling and drawing even tho sucking at both

I could probably figure out the script myself given time, but if some rando on here is going to write it for me out of the goodness of their heart then why should I stop him? He's probably just trying to code random shit for people so he can get better, which I totally support. If he's just fucking with me, whatever. Then I don't get a free script. Boo hoo. No harm in giving ScriptAnon the benefit of the doubt.

>>172379862
On second thought, can we just stick to the butt-physics? I can likely figure out the neck stuff on my own, as I've worked with a head-look script in the past that seemed to work pretty well. Getting realistic physics on the dog's body is the main focus for me right now. Thanks again, ScriptAnon. This is gonna be great.

>>172380042
>>172380263

do you post your practice to get critique?

>>172379862
for real tho, the level of coding experience you have based of your posts, clearly tells the tale of someone whose not qualified to write a script like this.

>>172372528
Turtle is not for killing.

>>172380453
I've only just recently started actually drawing. Coded a good bit. I might post what I'm currently working on when I'm done.

Hey, the guy who's writing the butt-physics script. I've gotta go get something to eat before the place closes, so I'll be back in an hour, or two. Thanks again for your help.

>>172380359
Okay, I still need the name of the toy though, but physics still need a reference to the head's rotation.

>>172380479
It's easy, just get the world rotation of the toys when it has been thrown and have the bones in the neck match it's world rotation. Easy.
