AGDG - Amateur Game Development General

First for I've only just started doing this stuff and I'm already 9 hours into a marathon with my own psyche.

nth for comfy agdg google hangout where

I love /agdg/

xth for no motivation to work on rotate guy

here is my first game. Reflector is a piece of shit. I'll figure out a better way to record off my phone later.

Anyway this is a game i came up with. My friend learned unity and I did all the art. There are a few bugs that need to be worked out, and some minor design changes. It should be released next Friday. Let me know what you guys think of it.

>>74965147
Np. Would like to see more of your game since you die pretty fast

>>74965164
a mix of the two
sometimes all you need is a different explaination

>>74965164
A lot of sources is better than just one. You can see how many people approach problems and hopefully realise why they do it that way. The key to learning programming is understanding how things work in the logic side and why things are programmed the way they are. Syntax is just a tool to use the logic to make things happen.

>>74965276
getting you some footage now.

>>74965130
Yeah, it's an old format from the early days of Mac OS, before memory protection. It runs with higher privileges because it modifies its own memory to play back the video, so it's vulnerable to buffer overflows. Botnets can easily hijack a Quick-Time playback to take over your computer.

>>74964472
Make a button that'll allow you to rotate really super fast

this will allow you to solve some puzzles as well as deflect bullets

Yes, you got the point. If the artist has other options that would guarantee conversion, why would he waste time and effort into a project that he is unsure of whether or not is progressing at all.

>>74964958
>>74964972
I'm not saying it's easier, in terms of skill but in terms of seeing visual progress. I know both are craft that you hone over time. Yes, I know there's a lot of stuff going in the backend for the simple task of just moving a simple triangle. This is not really a problem of "skill", it's more of a problem with gauging motivation, participation and commitment in the project. You are working with someone online, someone you barely know, for a promise of future cut that he might not even actually receive (I'll used that because it's the common phrase here).

It can even go the other way around, you're a programmer, you've have already done working prototypes for your game. Now, you talk to your artist, he shows you concept sketches and whatnot but rarely gives you actual usable material to work with. Now tell me, would you continue working with that guy?

Now, this is all avoidable through various ways that I'm sure you guys can figure out on your own. I just don't want people being discouraged with working with fellow anons over a couple of vocal cases of failure that might actually have been properly handled and prevented.

Rotatedev, are you reading and watching things for inspiration? It doesn't sound like progress but it will definitely help you figure out what to do next.

>>74966570
I guess if I do it that way I can also make a box collision to determine if it should go red or green for placement too. Now I just need to code it...

Reminder.

A guy on the Unreal forums (who's been doing really major work implementing adventure game systems like wall walking, ledge grabbing and climbing, etc) suffered DUAL HDD failure and lost both backups of his progress.

Fortunately he had a third backup recently made to a cloud storage drive, but still.

>>74969683

Yeah, Haven't you played Crusader Kings, Sengoku, etc?

>>74969771
How's Sengoku?

>>74969760
It's not a mathematical impossibility to have two HDDs crash at once.

In fact, if both were manufactured at around the same time (say, the same factory run which were both sold together in a prefab or something) and saw roughly equal use, it wouldn't even be surprising that they would both crash at roughly the same time.

>>74969917

HDDs can crash simply through age alone?

Now I feel sick.

To be fair, it turns out the game itself is free to play

The game is also surprisingly fun.
I'm not admitting that without being anonymous though.

Best map aesthetics in all paradox games. I haven't played it that much to create a decent review, actually I haven't played games at all in these past few weeks. What I can say is that I favored playing CK2 over it, I liked my variety. Plus, there's more content CK2 whether it be official patches/dlcs or mods.

>>74969683
Cloud storage is free. Losing the most recent version of your game in the year of our Lord 2014 only happens to the uneducated. You can just set it and forget it and pull it off Google Drive/Dropbox/Copy/OneDrive if your HDD dies. There are no excuses.

It is, truly, the best feeling.

Without going into the details, I FINALLY got in-engine IK solving working properly (my rig is not friendly to Unreal's IK solvers, which are designed to solve IK for a primarily FK rig, not an IK rig). Hands now properly attach exactly to the correct spot on the gun and the arms update naturally to accommodate that pose, even for poses which are in between blend samples (i.e. Unreal is trying to interpolate between two defined poses exported from Blender), which until now had caused bone slipping.

I was probably 15 minutes away from giving up the ghost and refactoring my rig and all my animations to solve the problem.

>>74970383
I don't understand.
Driving around, beating in a bunch of zombie skulls with a bat or some other melee weapon, and at some point building a base.
I've only played it twice and for about 4-5 hours each time. But I went in expecting a shit game but found a pretty pleasant experience.
If I knew what made it fun I'd use that knowledge in my own games.

>>74971453
Sure.

This one is for parsing input and setting basic player movement and status (i.e. shooting, aiming, running, jumping, being pushed through the air by a melee attack) and also handles some basic stuff like respawning, the time dilation for bullet time, moving the camera around, etc..

I'm getting really fucking mad at Unity right now. It's being a huge bitch and refusing to import terrain RAW files properly, and I have no idea why. If I import it as "Mac", it does pic related. If I import as "Windows", it does nothing at all. If I use bit 8 instead of bit 16, the whole thing is moved up by like 100 meters and remains flat.

Google has been unhelpful as hell and it looks like the terrain tool is broken, too, because I get console errors whenever I select the terrain, even before doing anything with it.

>>74971832
...this one is a sub-BP of the first one which specifically drives character animation (triggers combos and determines how to progress through them, handles the variables for when the player can jump, double jump, dodge, equip and fire the gun, etc., and controls the player's ability to cancel between actions by setting vars) and also sends messages regarding animation back to the other BP for driving more basic stuff (i.e. tells it when to bump the character into the air during melees, instructs it how to rotate the character when the stick is pressed during melee attacks, tells the character BP when the dodge anim is ready to actually launch the character capsule, etc)...

>>74972264
...and THIS ugly trainwreck (I can't reroute those lines into something more legible, I've put in a feature request) is the state machine that controls the player's animation state. This is what checks the variables that allow transition/canceling; most of it is quite simple, though the "aiming" nodes all contain complex additive and blending logics and direct bone controls to allow the player to aim and fire.

And, as spaghetti as all this is, I cannot CONCEIVE of having tried to do this in C++ directly. I thank god every day for BPs.

Zoomed out in this case, if areas get any larger, zoomed in at the point where the character's about the same size in the zoomed out one.

>>74972267
FWIW I tried this and it didn't help. What I really need to do is either (a) clamp the base brightness higher, or (b) just lighten that default surface texture a bit.

Keep in mind the final levels are quite unlikely to have visible skybox at all. The skybox is artificially dark because the Cel Shader renders it black in the first pass (since the sky contains no lighting data at all and is just an emissive texture).

This is where people go to start out, and if their project actually goes anywhere they'll generally move to a more proper community.

Are you kidding me, there is no future for anyone here.

>>74973043
That's correct. Though unsubbing prevents you from accessing updates, sample content from their "marketplace" (all it contains ATM is free sample stuff), and their forums.

But if you want to try it out and see if it's your speed, yep, sub and then unsub.

They're made up of extremely small, fragile, fast-moving metal pieces. Of course they break down with age.

Spindle bearing seizure, read/write-head locking, motor failure, all of these happen when some tiny metal part snaps or chips or bends just enough to toss the whole thing in the shitter.

Back up your stuff.

I have a mostly functional shitty platformer on my hands. Here's hoping I can keep this up for at least a few months.

My next gamedev music.

Hey, AGDG. I could use some advice.

I've been a professional designer on an MMO for a year now, but I want to get back into indie dev. I know my position here is finite and I need something cool I can show off to whomever hires me next.

I'll skip the big long explanation and get to the point: Should I work on my personal game concept in the hopes of having something to show off, or should I spend time making simpler projects like Pong and Donkey Kong to sharpen my skills and fill out my knowledge?

Captcha: Solicitous ertatd

>>74977525
>implying tigsource's games don't blow AGDG's games out of the fucking water

Even their one man and two man games are leagues better than ours.

>>74977962
either approach is legitimate, especially if you already have the know-how to do a specific game.

it can be good to build incrementally towards your game, reusing code as you go.
pixel built up his engine for cave story and released a mini-game with it before making cave story itself.

>>74969628
why not make your own engine ~?

>>74977050
If it were me, I'd try making the clouds horizontally static (non-scrolling) but vertically parallaxed. Then I'd just have the mountains as a single layer in front of them, with both horizontal and vertical scrolling. Don't know if this is possible in your engine, but it's what I would want to try.

>>74977962
Do your own thing because
1) you'll be more motivato
2) everyone has a pong (my previous employer didn't even want to see it when I interviewed)

>>74977962
>Should I work on my personal game concept in the hopes of having something to show off, or should I spend time making simpler projects like Pong and Donkey Kong to sharpen my skills and fill out my knowledge?
Short answer: Yes.

Long answer: Even if you designate a big-ish game as your Personal Project™, every once in a while you should see how quickly you can clone a game you already know, just to keep up your level of familiarity with your tools.

>>74978195
>>74978114
Thanks. What I'm worried about though is that so far my gamedev education has been spotty and incomplete. Classes and algorithms are easy for me, but I've not spent much time on stuff like menus, savegames, and juice.

>>74976969
tigsource has a few big advantages over AGDG:

-Moderators and admins that actually give a fuck
-A ton more prestige (gaming media actually pays attention to them)
-Established and friendly devs
-All their games aren't some weird weebshit that nobody outside 4chan could ever relate to
-Names, so one autistic anon can't shit up the entire forum and make it look like there is a shitposting epidemic like I do here sometimes
-They actually make games

It's not even a fair fight. I still like AGDG more, though.

They have contacts. They probably have a source of income that let them make games and live at the same time. The big ones featured in IGTM, have games on Steam. The press talked about them.

you got alotta work ahead of you.

I only have about 100 physics entities/game objects on the screen, and hooking up some delegate functions costs an extra 0.10ms per frame. Does simply hooking up less than a dozen delegate functions that run every frame or so to some empty virtual methods really cost that much (well they are being pass information but the functions are literally blank, I just have them so I can choose which events I want to use by overriding them whenever instead of hooking up each event for each type or individual game object in every script)? I made sure to test it was only that by enabling and disabling the hook ups in each entity's startup.

Aspiring programmer here.

I've been reading SICP (no, I don't want to incite an argument over whether or not that's a good idea so don't start) and I'm having trouble with one of the exercises.

Exercise 1.3 demands that you create a program that will take three numbers and return the sum of the squares of the two largest numbers. I wrote my own, yet all that happens is the third number that I enter as arguments to the function comes up unchanged. I will input

function x y z

and the only number that returns is z, unchanged.

It seems as though it's not due to my incompetence either.

http://community.schemewiki.org/?sicp-ex-1.3

and still, the same problem occurs. This is concerning to me as I feel if it's not just my incompetence and something is wrong, with the book, or interpreters, I'll be badly misguided.

Because I don't want to learn programming for the sole purpose of games. While games are a large part of it I am very much interested in programming on a larger scale; and I plan on going to college soon to become an electrical engineer and a headstart couldn't hurt.

Also because GAMEMAKER LEL IT'S LIKE U DON'T EVEN WANT FREEDOM WITH YER GAME REAL DEVS MAKE THEIR OWN ENGINES, COMPUTER'S, MATTER THAT COMPOSES THEIR COMPUTER'S ETC.

So I'm building my world, writing out that lore, and I hit a catch.

I don't want my MC to be "The Chosen One" because that's tacky and played out. However, I have a bit of an issue now. How else would it make sense for some random kid from nowhere to just waltz in and start toppling dungeons and slaying dragons? He can't be magical, but he won't have had any combat training. Do I just handwave it? How could this make sense?

Phantom Block developer here.
I was wondering if I should set up a development blog for the game, now that I'm making pretty good progress. I'm currently in the middle of composing the main over world level theme. It would be part of my regular website.

Anyone have opinions?

>Monetize Traffic
I don't want to monetize traffic. I just want to post updates on my game.

I have a website already, perhaps I can just use that.

>>74985130
Depends on what you mean by scale, but consider that games have UI, web, logic, persistence, etc whereas lots of other types of programming are very narrow

>>74985234
Make magical more common. Think something like the Trojan War where multiple personas were considered abovehuman figures.

>>74985541
When it comes to scale, just imagine /g/ levels of knowledge.

>>74985363
That was pretty much his motivation already, yeah.
Also, I'm adding a character named Suave McKid that consistently Garys the MC (but it turns out he was full of it the whole time in the end). I'll add him just for you.

>>74985371
That is not off the table.

>>74985398
It's not an issue of motivation. It's the problem that the average 10 year old, if tossed into combat with an Ancient Stone Lion and two Widowbearers wouldn't exactly have the best luck. That's my issue.

>>74985601
I suppose this is an option. Just go full magic realism, just make everyone magical somehow. Might be neat. I'll think about it.

So you don't toss him into a combat situation you don't think he could win. If you can't think of a way for the character to triumph without breaking suspension of disbelief, try giving them a different obstacle.

Ritalin is literally just speed that they can legally prescribe to you.

It's highly addictive and terrible for you. The only people who should use it are extremely severe ADHD cases where they're actually worse off naturally than the would be addicted to fucking speed.

Just practice focusing. It is a skill you can sharpen over time.

No prob, but don't think that the enemies necessarily need to be weak or generic. Just apt for the character. Have you played earthbound? Even if you're going for a more serious tone I think it could be a great source of insight into the sort of game you want to make.

>Ritalin is literally just speed that they can legally prescribe to you.
no that's dexedrine (dextroamphetamine) which is just straight up amphetamine, the dextro just means "right-handed", enantiomer of the amphetamine molecule.
adderall is a mix of dexedrine and other salts.

Ritalin is Methylphenidate, don't take ritalin because it's shit, they don't even prescribe it in some places anymore over stuff like dexedrine and adderall because it's less likely to provide the right effect and it's more to calm ADHD kids down rather than provide motivation and focus to ADD kids and adults which is what dexedrine is prescribed for.

Amphetamines aren't that bad for you, they won't make your teeth fall out or your heart stop... that is IF you take the therapeutic dosages that are only supposed to boost the dopamine levels in your brain to around the levels that people who have high focus and good attention spans have. (dopamine is the drug that controls the reward pathway in your brain, if you had 0% dopamine production you'd probably just lie in bed unable to move.
The prescribed oral dosages of stuff like dexedrine are much much much much smaller than the dosages that methamphetamine (which is a different drug that's much more addictive and potent) addicts shove up their noses in one go when taking a hit.

Most methamphetamine addicts look that way due to the lifestyle caused by being a meth addict not by the drug magically shrinking their teeth or causing their skin to go bad, that's just from them drinking lots of soda to take care of the cravings for sugar and liquid and them never brushing their teeth, self-harming, getting into fights, staying up days on end and not showering among other things.

>>74986960
Just steal all the first names from Kerbal Space Program. They have like 500+, if memory serves. Also check out baby name books.

Last names are harder. Have the obligatory vocational names (Smith, Schumacher, Woodard, Weaver, Sawyer, and other names that coincidentally start with W or S), then add in some typical fantasy nonsense (Ravenheart, Blackbriar, shit like that; maybe even have a generator for last names that's like [descriptor] + [object], which could be neat when the results aren't Hardjelly), and then invent some royal sounding names the have something to do with your lore. Maybe toss in some names of gods and demons, for extra dramatic flair.

And also Strong Fist and shit like that, for giggles.

>>74986840
The tile map is just one component of a more complex level structure, it'd be difficult to get a third party tile map editor to do everything I need and I'd rather have all my level design tools in one application.

>>74987438
I will tomorrow/later.

>>74988210
Don't take meth, it's shit and fucked up and it is chemically addictive, take dextroamphetamine or adderall, it's actually not that addictive and doctors say they have a harder time getting actual ADD and ADHD kids to take their meds like their supposed to, it's people who don't have ADD and ADHD who abuse it and take more than therapeutic dosages for the high, it's why it's usually so easy to get because ADHD and ADD Kids usually have a stockpile of the stuff from not taking it all the time.

I have this idea for a game but the concept requires it to be in 3D. However, I have no experience in that besides webm related and it would take way too long to make anything decent regarding textures/models.

I've still have HDD's from like fucking 1998 as well. Works perfectly fine.

My newer seagate one died though due to some shitty power outage. I think that's the one of the main causes rather than age.

Also depends on how often its used. If it's kept on everyday for +2 years straight..then yeah expect it to wear out soon

>>74993617
Everything. The tutorials I was watching at the start of the year said a whole bunch of things that in the last two weeks I've found out are bullshit. I was going through the starter guide manual thing and was getting lost even more there, so for now I'm not going to bother. I think I can do what I wanted to in 3d gamestudio, it would just be a completely different way again.

>>74993410
Make me.

This is a disgusting way to avoid having to code.

I now have a profound hatred for Unity that I couldn't have by name and shitty projects (that were terribly memory hungry) alone.

>>74993705
The firewall in my closet? On all day everyday except in a low-power mode during my sleep period running Slackware Linux.

It's been doing that job since I got the box to put it in, a year before I got my PS3. 2006.

I only specifically remember it because I had pre-ordered my first game ever (never doing it before) Black, a PS2 game that sold itself on realism and destructible environments.

I had to see what the PS2 could do, and what it could do was like 3 levels of very boring shooting with shitty console controls. This coming from a console gamer. This was the shortest Playstation game I've ever played on ANY playstation console.

I hope you realize that's UE4 and not Unity

>>74994196
I don't. I am a programmer so the UI I see is my IDE.

Regardless of what that is, my judgement stands, and my reaction stands because UE is generally bloaty shit too.

there's a reason why it's not mentioned here

Blending together particle effects with the trail renderer turned out pretty well.

>>74994267
Not everybody likes writing walls of text to get lights to turn on and off dude. You still have to code regardless, the GUI stuff helps get rid of the grunt work.

>>74994509
I genuinely never implied it had to be pleasant for everyone.

You have the same experience looking at pages of code that I do looking at that tangle.

I know why they exist, just hate'em. I won't say anything cross about someone using what they can because surely if they get momentum they won't use tools like that forever.

>>74994270
Yeah, but at least the book I've got behind me walks you through some of the bits. I haven't found anything like that for Unity.

Not giving up on it completely, just not going anywhere near it now until I can get back into the right frame of mind. As as someone who learns best from watching what someone is doing and then doing it myself, tutorials and the manual won't help with shit, especially if the tuts are leading me astray in what it can do. I'm not expecting too much from it, but at least one of the examples in the book is something I'm wanting to actually do, just mine is a sci-fi version.

Have you made much profit yet? I thought this would motivate me but I just feel worse for not doing anything decent. Best of luck to you.

>>74994613
Are you not watching the tutorials on the Unity website? Those are fine.

>>74994613
That is true you will have to search and hit the docs hard often. But at least you build on your problem solving.

>>74994948
Those are that ones that led me astray, so please don't talk about them.

>>74995061
I can only imagine what you are doing, blindly following others' direction ain't gonna get you far.

>>74994940
Nothing impressive, but I am pretty happy with how it's going since it's an early access game with no marketing (I haven't even emailed journalists/youtubers) or visibility.

>>74995123
Please excuse me for not caring when people are completely ignoring the question I asked and are instead trying to push me into something I have no interest in doing at this time.

To your point, no. The tutorials on the site were making a bunch of statements about how things were handled in unity, I've got a friend doing a course at the moment and I made the mistake of asking was it as easy to do certain things as the tutorials were stressing - and no. It's all external code, which for those bits I lost interest. Being the bits I traditionally had problems with, having a shortcut there made it seem really attractive but without it and with a whole lot of other stuff involved that was glossed over at best in what I was watching, I'm going to play around in the kiddy pool for now quite happily.

Stay nodev.

Nah, the kiddie pool is Gamemaker. Ye be venturin' in unknown waters son, there be sharks ahead

If you're not supporting yourself from this, do spend a few hours "marketing" and you will be.

I've changed one sprite up and I've made another 4. I've also started work on the Pokemon-styled introduction to the game.

not investing a huge amount of time for no gain when I don't have much free time at the best of times.

My main interest lies in writing, so this is a diversion.

Writing openGL code again. Jumping between this and RPG Maker because fuck lets work at the two ends of the spectrum.
Haven't been able to dev much recently either, been prepping for interviews for real coding jobs

Just popping in to say that you're never going to make it as a writer for games.

>>74997641
Nein. At least someone likes it though, it was one of my first projects and it's actually one of my favorites, despite being very basic. It's free for android.

>>74997723
That's cool, it's not games I write.

>>74997761
Oh well, then there's no problem. Good luck.

Is it bad to get into gamedev with your significant other?
My girlfriend is an artist and musician and she's showing an interest in what I do. Would it be bad for her to help out on my game? I mean, what if we break up and the game is left half finished? It's not like you can continue having a professional relationship afterwards.
