The more progress I make into shit like the combat, the more I realize there's SO much more I gotta do.

For example, now I have these menus that are so lovely and I can add as many options and shit as I want to them.
But this means in the future I'll have to deal with HOW those options get added, like with Badges giving moves.
And then there's the fucking Tactics page which is going to be utter hell as each option there does bizarre shit that I'll need to figure out/rearrange my code with.

kids have so much energy, i want to be a fucking kid again

>>135577715
How did you eventually go about implementing the sub-menus? I remember you were sweating it last night.

can someone tell me what that 3d defcon looking game was I want to know please

>>135577715
I hope you get hired by Nintendo if you ever finish it, cause it would be a great shame putting so much effort into a game you cant sell.

I wanted to have an SMG for my PONG WITH GUNS game so I made the SILENCED MAMMOTH GUN (S.M.G.) but then after I set it all up in the game I realized having automatic weapons doesn’t really work because you can just shoot the ball all the time. It’s either not powerful enough to stop really fast balls or too OP to repel slow to decently fast balls. I guess I'll go make the red9 now.

>>135577715
Nice!
Are you actually making a paper mario game or using those as placeholders?
If the former, I can guarantee Nintendo will C&D if you get far and they find out.

So, is it the moeblob/generic anime that is discouraged here? What about more realistic proper anime that is gamedev-related? You know, respectable anime, not the current garbage anime. Or is it all the same to you guys?

>>135578447
we only like dick girls around here

>>135578447
I wanna fuck that slippery slope.

>>135577848
It's messy as fuck.
Basically, it's different for each "topLevel" menu item.
>Mario's jump, hammer, and special stuff are each made from different list of "moves" taken at the start of combat from an array of all available moves (with each move having an available bool so I can hopefully use that to work with stuff like badges)
>Items is the cleanest, pulling from the already set inventory, which acts differently if in the combat scene or not, but is the same script so there wasn't much that had to be changed.
>Tactics is literally hard coded in right now, don't think there's any way I could make it a list or array like the others.
>Partner's moves work the same as Mario's, but they specifically pass their move list to the combatManager since theirs will be more or less set overall.
But it's all working overall for now, and I think it should be fine logic-wise for now. Not sure how I'll do disabling options though.

>>135578041
I'm a bit worried about that, but then again other Paper Mario fan games have gotten along just fine. There's one that's literally Mario 3D World with Paper Mario visuals and SPM gameplay.
And then there's Epic Paper Mario which is like this project but with the overworld as a purely 2D platformer thing.
Nintendo's really iffy on how they do their C&Ds.

What kinds of things did hopoo make before he made risk of rain

or better yet

Where can I learn about beginner projects successful developers did before they were successful

Wrote a class for Unity
http://pastebin.com/UzKFXK59
It acts like a transform and provides methods that do the exact same thing as a transform, but isn't attached to an object so you can instantiate it.

It allows you to manipulate a fake Transform, and then you can apply it to a real Transform later on.

I didn't implement anything related to parenting or hierarchy since I only needed it for position and rotation (though I threw scale in there so it had all 3 basic fields)

So really I implemented
>RotateAround
>LookAt
>Translate
>Rotate
as well as Forward, Right, Up, and EulerAngles

Let me know what you think, I'm gonna stick it on the Asset Store for free if I can
>Not sure if the name will be final, but I thought it was decent enough since the object is kind of like a 'state', except that it's mutable

>>135577975
Just make your smgs overheat or something. So if you fire in bursts you can push it like the shotgun, but you can also give it a burst of constant pushing at the price of being left open while your gun cools down.

Also you should implement reloading to differentiate your guns - e.g. your shotgun (or revolver) has a small mag, but you can reload one shot at a time in a pinch, while guns with a detachable mag (like an smg for instance) have a longer firing time, but also leave you open while you reload.
So, someone with a shotgun can keep up a constant fire-rate at the cost of having less push at range. Their game plan is slow and steady and wait for an opening.
Someone with an smg has the ability to keep up a constant fire rate if they're stratigeic with their reloads and heat, but they can also give the ball a hard push when they see an opening.
Someone with a revolver or bolt action rifle can push the ball harder than the shotgun or smg at long range, but have to strike the ball directly in the middle if they don't want it to spin or bounce off the walls and lose momentum.
Etc.

There's all sorts of weapons that could have interesting playstyle effects e.g. a double barrel shotgun, a break open style rifle, slow firing machine guns.

If you give players a whole lot of weapon options, that's where your replay-ability is going to come from.

>>135579209
Yeah, if other people are going to be using it, I want the intellisense to be helpful.
Though I comment the shit out of everything I do

>>135578607
Working and messy is better than clean and broken. Keep at it.

>>135579125
This might come in handy for me, im not smart enough to know how good it is but id say its useful if it works considering the headaches Unity rotations have given me already.

Is there any worse feeling than when you try to implement a new feature and realize that you have to refactor another feature that you just got done with after spending several days working on it? I long for the sweet release of death.

>>135579386
I want to though.

>>135579354
The methods it has are the exact same ones that are on the Transform class in unity (though I may have overloaded some of them to accept GameObject and MonoBehaviour)

The big advantage is that you can manipulate a Transform without actually having a GameObject in the real world be manipulated. That's useful because you don't have to sync the transform to some invisible dummy object, and you aren't slowing Unity down with random world objects.

>>135579646
Start with regular complex numbers, if you don't already know them. The generalization to quaternions is fairly intuitive.

>>135579619
Refactoring is at least a form of progress. The worst feeling is when you practice something for weeks and get no better.

Well I mean, a lot of that comes from the fact that I'm using Unity for everything.

Hell, I haven't even touched animations yet really, all the stuff currently in there is just basic iTween stuff or normal character controller junk.
Also, I've been spending waaaay too much time on it. Hell, the last two days have basically been entirely dev work on it with no work done on my actual thesis or other school projects.
Probably gonna have to take a break from it for the next few days to make sure I make up all that lost time. At least for now it's in a good place to leave and come back to once my important work is done.

We are approaching Danny hours. Caution should be advised beyond this post.

Consider the structure of your code and how you plan your design. Sometimes it's inevitable, but if things are coupled too tightly, then you'll run into that issue much more often.

why people don't just make a new genre called zeldalike

is each sprite an additional draw call? every sprite has different transforms so the model matrix needs to be changed for each one

is that right? or is there a better way to do this?

>>135583887

>>135583887
There's not that many games that are zelda clones. At least not compared to platformers and other genres. It's time consuming to make a good zelda clone.

>>135583887
So a lot of games start out with the idea of being a Zelda clone. Then like several days into development they realize they have no idea how to do what Zelda did, or the tools to make it happen.
And then the Action RPG was created, at the least in Japan. In the west, the Genre is generally Action Adventure

why is this happening in unity? i've got a sky using an unlit, transparent material, and for some reason it gets really bright within what looks something like the screenspace bounds of point lights. just a big square of the sky behind the light gets lit up.
why would this ever happen?

>>135573428 here.

I'm trying to figure out where to properly use my Sound Cues for my RTS units.

I originally tried adding them to the unit behavior tree's action sequence and that worked perfectly... until I implemented shift queueing orders. Now the sound cue plays again each time the tree resets to carry out the next order in the queue.

If I try to manually add the Sound Cues for issuing new orders or for unit selection, then the sounds will play for each unit that's involved in receiving the new order as well as for each unit that's being selected.

I can't win. Does anyone know of a viable way to solve this problem? Because I'm not sure how to proceed.

Milestone 4.
Make enough sales to pay off all monetary costs of making the game.

Milestone 5.
Make enough sales to pay off all the time and living expenses involved in making the game.

Oh and I also want to get lucky and get rich cause a lot of people like my game for some reason.

>>135584987
Polarized thinking like that is disastrous. These manic thoughts of greatness don't exist without the inverse, depressed thoughts of worthlessness. You will have to give way to them eventually.

The only true way to progress is to maintain a balanced, even handed approach. Not to say you shouldn't have a vision. It's just that you shouldn't have a vision of what YOU will be. You should have a vision of what the game should be.

Good luck.

Sorry. Your paranoia is misplaced. Its just me olddreamerfag. I've been trying lurking about and posting a bit for the past week or so.

Just throw together a Tumblr. I did it yesterday and it recommends other aggy daggers depending on your interests.

File: pickups.png (4MB, 1912x898px) Image search: [Google]

4MB, 1912x898px

3 gun pickups you can get. A little problem is you throw your current gun when taking a new one but you can just pick your old gun back up and it will be reloaded since it's a new instance. I might just allow one way switches.

Tomorrow I'll begin work on the skeletons that you'll be able to shoot right in the bones while the ball is on the other side to uncover the random gun pickups and temporary elemental/magic upgrades that will alter the ball in a bunch of ways.

Goodnight agdg

>>135589045
give the new instance the ammo count after spawning, then tell the player when the gun is picked back up

>>135589129
you're making me realize that I don't know why I'm doing drops the way I am. Right now I have a gun_pickup prefab and a gun_real prefab. One is used, the other only serves as a pickup.

It is kind of convenient to have separate scripts but I guess I could just enable/disable them too on pickup.

I'll change it all tomorrow. Kind of retarded. Thanks

>>135589118

>>135590398
Been lurking like the last 3-4, even apparent to me that there is a cycle of good posting, then a crash into nothingness as certain people wake up and "contribute", helped by a janitorial staff that don't know their own rules.

I think I'm done with it, because on top of that everyone is fucking retarded enough to reply to him, even when using the same images.

>>135590717
I think it fits with the theme of completely, pointless shitposting. Did something about my post bother you? Look at this thread, is /agdg/ defensible at all?

It happens daily, for whatever reason. I don't care who and I'm not about to bother filtering.

I just hope the rampant shitposters are ready for the "Oh god, my life" feelings when they realize what tremendous efforts and time they've invested in this. It's all the same to me, I've only ever lurked and given casual feedback because it's interesting. But wow, simply astounding.

>>135590884
are you new? It happens all the time. And half of it is whoever blaming whoever else, so you'll get some "It's their fault!!"

This general needs to end. There's far more shitposting and chatroom shit than there is progress posting. FAR more.

having his game taken off steam really drove him off the deep end

well how about some progress

You are either willfully ignoring or completely oblivious to how I include THIS VERY POST YOU MADE as part of the problem.

If it's oblivious, then I feel bad for you. If it's willful, I feel even worse, because you probably consider yourself some sort of master manipulator.

A lot of you should stop a minute and recount how much time you spend on /agdg/, and how much of that is actually gamedev-related.

>>135591257
>not just using new progress to prove it's you

What? No I'm not being impersonated. Just a bunch of meme impersonators taking the discussion away from gamedev talk. It's a real drag and it makes it not worth posting progress.

Since /vg/ has seemingly no moderation, you'll just have to wait it out.

There are times when it's not as bad, probably when the small handful of shitposters are asleep.

Also, it's not like this is a sustainable hobby for them. At some point it will catch up to them, and no amount of shitposting will take away the empty feeling. The end of the road is recovery or implosion.

I know it's almost forbidden to use this term in conversation on 4chan, but I think you're projecting.

I spend most of time playing games, watching tv and lurking, not really posting or interacting with people, I mean the most interaction I might get is from ERPing but that's really just a substitute for a lack of specific fetishes in art, not because I need the interaction.

Furthermore, friends and interacting with other people over the internet are two very different things.

You ignore occasional idiots, but you can't ignore some mentals that have been shitting up a place for a year. You have to take actions, unless you want another year of this shit.

What's the point? It has been proven numerous times that he's ban evading anyway.

>>135598279
he is requesting proof of the dox on himself though
which is literally insane seeing as it exists and there are mentally unstable people on agdg who have been here for years

>>135598383
>What's the point?
Everyone should be training themselves to have their reaction to a namefag shitpost be reporting, not responding.

That alone is worth it. It only takes a second.

>>135598383
Lets say you get to the thread after the shitstorm and his posts were reported and deleted already. It's like it never happened. Help clean AGDG for the next person and maybe the next person will help you.

> wake up from my cool dev powernap
> people are literally shitposting about telling on mommy
where is the progress people?

>>135598546
Where is yours, friend?

>>135598547
I care. When /agdg/ isn't a total shitfest, it is pretty fun to share progress and get feedback, and follow progress and give feedback.

You know, the whole fucking point of the general.

>>135598485
>but tattles to their moms
Which in that particular case would be the most effective, it's not like he's got a job yet.
It's not even about the guy, I'm genuinely curious to know what kind of parenting it takes to have such a result.

And I'll also reminder that this is 4chan. Faggots like him always used to get a harsh reality check for their faggotry, he knows perfectly why he's bringing his drama and attention-whoring pictures on almost all boards but /b/.

last time I posted progress some guy compiled an image that listed my game alongside the posts I made ITT, in an attempt to convince people not to pay attention to my game
it was really fucking autistic

Anyway, I'm working on the overworld for my game and room transitions.

Just remember shitposters, this is unsustainable. Soon even this little dopamine rush won't be enough.

The emptiness that follows, when you're forced to examine your life, will be desperately uncomfortable. Reconsider how you're spending your time.

>>135598821
>>135598848
This proves that there are at least 2 people pushing the "d*nny" thing around.

>>135598986
Are you serious? Some of the best games are made by autistic people.

>>135598974
>I am still of the opinion that there is no saving this place
There is one, you'd have to take actions about those idiots outside of 4chan.
It's not going to happen though, until they ironically trigger someone as mental as them who decides to go on a crusade against them.

>>135587559
That model is super cute, source?

Also, I've no idea how you managed to get the camera that glitchy. That should be like 5 lines. Post code.
>>135595873
Camera goes in LateUpdate

>>135596630
>What do you think needs to be improved next?
Enemies don't seem threatening in the slightest. They also act clunky and seem rather small compared to the player. Guns on ground suffer from the same small in comparison problem.

Shooting animations, fx and sounds are very lacking. Shooting is the bread and butter of your fps. It needs to be a lot better.

Lighting looks like it's from 10+ years ago. Enemies don't seem to have shadows.

Oh and it could use some background music.

>>135599171
>That model is super cute, source?
It's the crystal gun grill dev

>>135599169
What is easier, to make dwarf fortress or to ignore a few autists?

>>135587559
>tfw will never be able to make models this cute

>>135598354
That doesn't look very engaging...

Anyone have any suggestions on how to fake volumetric lights in an engine that only has flat shading for models?

Challenge time!

come up with 20 twists you can put on a pong clone.

you have 20 minutes. let's see those creative juices!

>>135599492

By flat shading do you mean you can't affect transparency at all?

>>135599364
dont worry it will be soon

As the shitposters wear themselves down, a mournful emptiness fills them.

/agdg/ carries on unbothered, ready to talk gamedev as before.

>>135599492
just write a shader for it that doesn't use flat shading?

>>135599796
He's still here. He's just pissing himself over the fact that his bullshit is almost getting out of 4chan.
This is a good thing, let him shitpost more so that someone can snap and do it.

>>135599751
i'll show how easy it is by ignoring you, starting now

Guys I actually have a progress shot.

This is the loading screen, left box is short summary of game world, right is short summary of player status.

Hopefully players will be less confused when the game starts.

Thoughts?

GIVE ME THREE INSTRUMENTS TO MAKE A SONG OUT OF

>>135600221
flute, didgeridoo, otamatone

>>135600221
scalpel, bone saw and tweezers
piano harp and violin

This recent session of tantrumming, from whoever these people are (inb4 blaming someone), was especially bad.

The emotionally fallout will be devastating. "What have I been doing with my life." I do not envy those desperate souls. The loneliness must be terrible.

>two years of visiting /adgd/ on and off
>still havent started making games

How do I start? How do I make my dreams be real?

>>135600221
Piano, synthesizers and a cow bell

>>135600468
>sick of seeing the word
Can't we make the mods auto-ban this word and the post or something? Just like what they did with B0xxy back then.

>>135600490
Just like make game.

There's only one way. You have to just do it.
Just like make game.
Choose an engine, any engine, follow tutorials, learn the language, and just make things. Start small and work your way up to bigger games.

>>135600490
Learn a language (C#, Java, etc, they're mostly all fine) or pick up a tool (Unity, Game Maker, Construct)

Choose one:
Read a book > Read tutorials > Watch tutorials

Make small shitty practice games. Work your way up to being able to make your dream game.

>>135600608
It doesnt happen. I get the coffee, and the Nutella, and download Unity, and sit on my PC all day, but instead of having a game appear at midnight I have spent my time posting on 4chan and playing video games.

I cant dev, at some point I just stop doing it and do something else instead, without meaning to, without knowing how or why.

>>135600221
Guitar, Mambas, Sitar

>>135600739
download learning resources
shut down internet
make user where you don't have games installed
dual boot linux and don't install any games

>>135600821
>shut down internet

This kills the progress.

>>135600709
This thread went down because of him. A whole damn thread, how the hell are you supposed to be "used to it"? This is not acceptable.
He even replied purposely negatively to some devs and pushed them away from this thread, this is bullshit.

Are you seriously fine with : "Look, can't post progress for the next 6 hours or so because of one single guy".
