i gave up on making games, literally never ending work. writing viruses is equally fun, also nudes

Terribly. I have an idea in mind but I can't figure out how I want the concepts to translate to actual gameplay.
Particularly whether I want to make the game have a thematic combat system or have conflicts solved through skill-check puzzles.

QUICK QUESTION

Can I start creating a game in Unity, UE4, Cry-Engine, Source, etc. without prior knowledge in that?

How hard it is?

Let's say I have some people that can create 3d models for me... how hard will it be for me to create the whole gameplay for the game?

Perhaps this is the wrong thread to ask, but what are some games with decent level creators? I've been vaguely thinking about making a game forever, but I've never really done anything. Figure maybe if I get my feet wet with something simple it might get me going.

>>383630717
there's lots of tutorials for shit, especially unity.

Start small, download an engine and follow some simple tutorials about how to make a 2d platformer or something. Get the basics down. Then think about doing something that's more you.

>>383630998
Mario Maker, Binding of Isaac, Advance Wars, most Source games (HL2 especially), uhm....Timesplitters? You can also download RPG Maker and start making maps and enemy encounters super quick using the prefab characters and items and stuff. There's a lot out there, anon, go have some fun!

Is it worth starting off with a 3d game engine if you work in /3/ already?
Feel like I should start with Unity but also don't want to fuss over 3d models and animations when I'm just trying to learn.

>>383630998
Super mario bros X (has local coop), Warcraft iii

>>383631597
Make a game about cubes or other primative shapes. Animations don't have to be crazy. Look at shit like Lovely Planet.

I've taken inspiration from threads and am learning the basics of game dev to eventually move on to bigger better things.
It's been fun so far! Did this in a couple days then moved on to another game with different mechanics but want to come back and do some more to it because the progress was giving me that warm fuzzy feeling.

Lots of little polish things to the environment.

Finished more of the dialogue for Montana Wild as well (and her second quest, diving for rum)

I've got an idea for the main fist string rework, and I've taken the "uppercut row" effect of the attack I'm replacing and transplanted it to the crouch+light command launcher to make something a bit more interesting (and worth using instead of the backflip launcher in certain situations).

In the gameplay design realm, added an optional upgrade that changes your aerial acceleration to let you redirect your jumps.

the game is called Dream Dasher and we should have a demo out Soon™, and maybe a twitter account or something were we'll post updates as well
it's a high-speed plataformer where you dash into enemies to kill them
the game has a combo mechanic with score rankings for every level, and every level features their own little gimmick (will post another webm of another level)
this webm is a playthrough of an earlier version of the first level so you can get an idea of the game's flow
it'll also feature some boss fights (will post webm of one next)

there'll also be some animated scenes to dot the story foward, here's the intro scene (unfinished and with no sound)

It's gonna be almost entirely menu-drive, not like rollercoaster tycoon actually building shit.

I'm trying to make a game about starting your own cryptocurrency based on my personal experiences in the recent ICO bubble.

Taking inspiration from Paradox games by centering the game around your employees/advisers and sending them off to different trader communities to affect them, like in Crusader Kings 2. Hopefully I can program the "traders" and "communities" to a level of depth that they might schism and shit.

Forgive my ugly ass programmer "art" (it's all GUI widget currently, anyways).

>>383637440
I really like the main character expressions, good job. Do you have a loading screen already? I had an idea for it, you can base off of it if you like it, but it would be simply the main character rolling around in a simplistic but pretty scenario, he could fall asleep while rolling, something kind of like the loadings in Spyro: Year of the Dragon, with spyro flying. great progress anon

>>383636634

I was gonna record a webm of the player skipping on water's surface with the dash but it's not working right, I'll have to fix it tomorrow
have a random boss animation then I guess

>>383637463
yeah, I guess most people don't care about plataformers anymore, it's understandable

>>383637890
there is in fact a simple loading screen with the character rolling already
and I'd hope the loading woudn't take long enough for it to get sleepy
thanks for the suggestion

>>383637987
hm, it was never the intention to make it feel sluggish
but since the dash gets you moving really fast, I'd say it might be sensible to get some slower movements in-between to balance things out, I don't know really
if you think the boss feels slow, I had to balance this fucker a million times until he wasn't impossible to beat for new players
also the dash would miss too often if the enemies moved to quickly (which might be a good idea for an enemy further down the line)
also the webm is in 30fps I think, not sure if that matter
but any feedback is important, if you can pinpoint what makes you feel that way, let me know

>>383637440
How much programming experience do you have, anon? Just curious.

>>383638956
I got very little experience on C++ from a couple of semesters in college before giving up on it, and then a little experience messing with Gamemaker's coding
so not much, really

the good thing about construct2 is that you don't really have to know any coding language, as long as you understand the basic concepts of coding (if, then, else etc) you can get things done

when I was messing with Gamemaker, youtube was definitely a great teacher, and now making this game has been a constant learning experience

Very bad. I don't have the patience to use even the simplest of programs. Years of playing LBP turned my brain into mush.

I tried to use Construct2 once, because it has an LBP2-esque UI, but I can't get the simplest of projects to run without game-breaking errors right out the box. So maybe game making just isn't my thing.

look at your living expenses per month/year
consider the price of the game you might sell in the future
take off 40% of that price (taxes, steam cut etc.) and get the profit per game

Actually you'r right, the boss does move fairly quickly. I was actually talking more about player movement, which I think is part of why you had problems balancing the boss. The acceleration/deceleration when falling and moving in general has some nice curves to it, but they "hang" just a little too much. Movement could stand to be a bit snappier, I think, unless the delay has to do with making aiming easier per the targeted dash(not exactly sure how that works desu, do you actually aim or is there a homing mechanic like in sanic?) On second inspection I also notice that the boss moves almost linearly in stark contrast to the player, I think it might actually make things both easier and more compelling if you start him telegraphing really slow, but then accelerate as he charges.
