What's the best way to automatically order a set of numbers from least to greatest?

Had a semi-interesting chat with my gamedev module coordinator. You really could just put any prototype on kickstarter and see some money. Or better, a Patreon so you could just see some money come in, and if you don't succeed, nothing to give back.

>>123402404

>Roguelike is a subgenre of role-playing video games, characterized by procedural generation of game levels, turn-based gameplay, tile-based graphics, permanent death of the player-character, and typically based on a high fantasy narrative setting. Roguelikes descend from the 1980 game Rogue, particularly mirroring Rogue's character- or sprite-based graphics.

>literally only not tile based

>>123401843
nigga even on game update events your game will be at least playtested and bashed by others. the only reason no one played your game so far is because you keep finding reasons to just give up when you should literally just do it.

Visualize you/yourself/your soul or whatever, visualize all the doubts and fears and self pity as another entity,
literally put a bubble around yourself.
You are now perfectly safe and free to do as you wish, unbound by society/norms/self doubt or need of approval/acceptance. You are quite literally free in every way imaginable.
Now make your fucking game. Not for money, not for fame, not for acceptance, but because you want to/feel like it. (and trust me, you feel like it)

>>123403157
Always give people a question/choice with your progress, ez 6 replies

>>123403117
No, sorry. I found it in a Net Yaroze free content pack.

>>123403157
Did you ask for feedback?

>>123402816
The sprites and the majority of the code will be totally non reusable if I'll decide to switch after trying one of them and I really don't want to waste effort on it, especially considering how long it takes for me to make good looking sprites.

lets see how retarded AGDG really is,

>>123403157
I'm sorry anon. Usually when I see good progress I've got nothing to say about it. I don't want to just say "Nice!", even if I like it.
Your game is probably awesome.

What kinda theme would you guys like for a lifesim?
It seems like most games either default to Modern Times or Medieval Fantasy-esque.

Just brainstorming.

Hello everyone!

I've made big improvements in my Sprite Font & handler classes! I abandoned the variables for spacing and kerning, since I will only ever use monospace fonts for dialog/menus and special fonts will only be used for titles so they'll only ever write one line.

The plain black dialogue box and its location/size are just temporary until I design some nice UI components.

from 8 to 12+ hours a day, from monday to saturday, sometimes sunday too, home awaits and elder family member that I have to wash after/care for.
vaguely dev for half an hour~1hr before going to bed. and sometimes half of sunday.

I would gladly trade all of the above for a solid 12 hour shift 5 days a week (having a clockwork time schedule is so much more important than you can possibly imagine), have 2 free days and no one to care for/clean feces after when I get home.

will my game make money/get me to better jobs/etc? that would be nice. do I care what others think of it/my progress? no. do I listen to all of my self doubt and pity? (trust me here I have more than you can possibly imagine) no. I shove it all away, get in my comfy bubble and dev, be it for fun or passion (or both).

do not believe in God if so you choose, do not believe in others that they will love/hate your game. Believe in your self, in your DETERMINATION.

I used to think that the whole "blocking distractions" was nonsense until I started being serious about it, and I've made some serious progress towards actually working and making progress.

Two years ago, I was always never leaving home, stuck in my room, browsing AGDG and doing nothing useful with myself. I had to experiment a lot, but my current progress is as follows:

I have a to-do list, with everything I need to do, however soon or not. I don't make them vague, I make them short and concise. I wouldn't write "make game X", that's not a task. I'd write something like "add position debug text" or something.

I assign these tasks to particular days, and mark at what times I start these tasks and when I plan to finish. Being wrong is ok, it helps you improve on guessing how long a certain task will take you. You just readjust your schedule, try to make as much as you can and move on.

Finally, I started actually blocking fucking distractions. I can have AGDG in a second screen now with no problem, but when I really wanna work with no stopping or distractions I mute my browser, I mute my phone, the only thing there is when I wanna focus is the work I wanna do and some background music that immensely helps me get in flow.

Finally, the hardest thing I had to learn is that all it takes to work and keep going is starting. But that doesn't seem a problem for you, since you only find it hard to keep going.

I want to work on a game for android (or for PC is fine as well). I'm ok with either a framework, library, or engine, don't care...

I want to work on a Linux machine. I only know Sepples and Python (though I want to learn a functional language like Haskell or Clojure, but that might be best left for a different project. Also want to learn JavaScript, which I know very little of). What do you guys recommend?

Ideally, I wanna get started remaking classics for android like space invaders, tetris and shit, but eventually my goal is to become familiar with whatever library, framework, or engine I might use and get something bigger started. Once I have something to show, I could bring in other people (maybe people from work) and make it a complete game out of it.

>>123416613
>those hips
yes

Sometimes I like to think of ideas for games but I have no technical skill to make them.

My current idea is a Souls-Like Metroidvania with Nidhogg-tier graphics. Or maybe a little better than Nidhogg, more like Duelyst.

Gameplay would be identical to Souls. Up-slot for Spells, down-slot for items, and a left and right equipment slot. Health and Stamina. Fights just like Souls, only you can only move forward and back on a 2D plane.

I think it would be neat.

>>123416737

LibGDX, Java isn't had to learn if you already know sepples.

>>123416870
Except without the extra dimension that 3D gives, combat would be extremely tedious and basic. Go play Dark Souls and fight an enemy in a tight corridor, that's what your game will be like

>>123417037
I'll seriously look into it.

Is SFML a pain to work with on Linux? I just don't want to work with Visual Studio... Not that I have anything personal against it, but it's just that I enjoy developing on Linux far more than I ever have on Windows.

I now SDL 2.0 is another option for sepples, but I remember using 1.2, and it was VERY barebones. I dicked around a little with SFML a couple of years back, and it just seemed like it would be less painful to use.

I also looked into pygame and ignifuga:

http://www.ignifuga.org/

The latter looks promising... can anybody who's played around with it tell me if it's good or bad?

Unity's giving me a strange issue. When I punch this bullet, I have it set to do a single 180 degree rotation. It seems to take 2 frames to turn when I want it to do it instantaneously.

Using either transform.Rotate(0f, 0f, 180f) or manually setting the eulerAngles, it seems to go from 0 degrees, to between 230-250 degrees, then to the final 180. Any clue what it may be?

It might be. Yeah, I guess I'll fuck around with it and see how painful it is. Re-making one of the classics might be a good test for these engines, frameworks, and libraries.

Never FUCKING settle

>>123418050
Post code, for hit detection and rotation.
Also what's wrong with your sprites?

Remember to ONLY use free software to develop your game. Do not give up your rights as a developer to some non-free engine like Unity or UE4.
That means LOVE or Ogre3D.

>>123418703
You mean that weird shifting? It's due to Unity's camera and the sprites not being locked to a solid grid.

Here's the relevant section of code and the only thing that rotates the object:

void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D col){
if (col.gameObject.GetComponent<Attacker>() && lastHitObject != col.gameObject){
lastHitObject = col.gameObject;
rb.velocity = -rb.velocity;
transform.Rotate(0f, 0f, -180f);
}
}

Once it hits an object, it can't be hit by it again, meaning the issue can't be that it's doing multiple rotations from multiple collisions. The player is the only object in the scene capable of colliding with the bullet, and there are no other collisions fucking with it.

>>123410383
cringing bud
why make a dialogue heavy game with an emphasis on humor if you lack the skill or know-how to deliver?

I'm just gonna make my game as offensive as possible. I figure if I can piss everyone off then I won't have to worry about offending anyone since everyone will be offended equally, so then it won't look like I was pandering only to SJWs or MRAs.

I'll give the option to play as an SJW where you physically assault males, and then also have an option to play as an MRA where you physically assault females. And by not including transhumans in the equation I will have succeeded in offending them as well.

Fuck this is the worst time to be trying to make it in the video games industry, everyone wants to be pissed at something. I'd prefer if everyone could just shut the fuck up. I'd shut up too, but everyone else is being so loud about their autism too so it's only fair.

>>123419345
Not him, but dialogue takes revision. That's just the first draft of the dialogue. Good dialogue takes about 20 drafts and needs to be beta-read and edited until it's acceptable.

>>123419793
>I'm going to make a game that offends MRAs and SJWs!
You're not even the first one to do that here.

>>123419926
Yes, but were they successful in doing so?

>>123419345
Because I'm not gonna leave out what I think is a crucial part of the game just because I can't do it right now. If I have to spend 20 years figuring out how to be funny, then so be it.

Come to think of it that's totally fair. I'mma do that from now on If I ever post anything that is.

>>123418050
I think I've fixed this issue.

Interpolation in the rigidbody seemed to be the issue. Disabling it is giving me immediate rotation so far.

>>123420076
I think the right bandana blue shirt is best, but if you're going to have her against a light background then give her the grey shirt or else it'll look weird.
With the left side bandana one it's kinda hard to seperate where the bandana ends and hair begins, making it so it's hard to tell at first glance. This is just my opinion as I am in no way a professional but with small or simple sprites like these it's a must to be able to tell all important aspects of a characters look immediately, and if you think it's not an important part of her look then it doesn't need to be there.

Fixed some bugs in the collision code causing exploding blocks to explode only very rarely. Now they always explode when they die, even if they get separated from the ship.

Also added a small random delay to block explosions. This makes them staggered, which looks a bit nicer and doesn't slow down any single simulation update as much as it did before.

>>123426403
Won't you be modeling using a character as a base anyway? If you want to use programming then you could put the armor objects center of origin on the point of the bone that it relates to. So for a shoulder pad put it's center so that when you move it in engine to the shoulder bone it'll align up perfectly. I mean you'll probably have to use some programming anyway.

>>123426601
It can be good to understand what made it so popular but if you aren't making a game in the same genre it's not that relevant.

>>123428996
The game doesn't need to have a whole extensive story, but I do like it when games have a bit of lore or a bit of story even if it's not the main focus of the game.
There are plenty of games that are fun completely based on their gameplay, but the lore just adds a bit of fun flavor to the game.
So I think it might benefit you to add a bit of story.

>>123429802
Well you know how Blendur has those dots for every separate mesh you have in there? The dot acts as the objects origin point. So if you were to make a shoulder pad for your character you could bring in the character. Move the 3d cursor to the shoulder bone and make a new mesh on that point. That way anything you model will be centered on that shoulder bone and you should have no problem placing it in the right place in the engine you use. Just put it as a child of the shoulder bone and it should snap right into place.

Look at stories in things YOU really like. Study them. Think about why you like them and how they relate to you and the things you think about.

Add in some personal experience to whatever you make and focus it into themes as you see fit.

In the end, it'll probably be a balancing act depending on the kind of game you make and the way it will deliver its story, but that guy that posted about not knowing how to write a funny script above trying to write a joke was bound to fail at it.

The bare minimum is to just have your actors have some kind of motivation, and a lot of games get by with that.

For Ameridevs, will you be ready for tomorrow when family guests arrive and you have to show off your game? You DO realize they'll be expecting a demonstration, right? After all, you don't have a job so you must be making a lot of progress.

When I start my game, there's sometimes a slight pause before it starts playing music.
I-is this it, /agdg/? Is my game finally big enough to have a loading screen?

They just get absorbed by the vagina, or pissed out the next morning.

Kinda a shame really. All of you were the strongest sperms in your dad and you still nodev.

You could've had a loading screen all along, buddy :^)

loadingScreenLength = arbitrary_number + math.random(-arbitrary_range, arbitrary_range)
loadingScreen.show()
while (seconds < loadingScreenLength)
{
loadingBar.update()
}
nextScreen.show()
