looks like ass but at least its moving to the beat~
a kind anon recommended using shaders and all that jazz and I instantly thought of using Earthbound-like backgrounds, would that be a good idea?

Hey, how would I do collision detection against polygons that aren't squares or circles?

That's the actual weld point being rapidly stressed by the fly-by-wire control thrusters. The joint bends, which moves the ship, which tells the system to cut that shit out. Oscillation ensue. Its a feature, I think.

>>144111363
I can see how that would make sense. However, the way that polygons are generated in my game don't have vertices let alone vectors.

Welcome to 3 weeks ago.

>>144111782
then it depends on how your poligons are generated

>>144111784
Just learn fucking C++.

>>144111915
why?

SOMEONE POST ASEPRITE PLEASE

>>144111784
UE4 games which run like shit do so because the devs don't know about asset optimisation, not because they used blueprints.

ASEPRITE

>>144111782
>However, the way that polygons are generated in my game don't have vertices let alone vectors.
I'm not sure a shape that can't be described by vertices could be considered a polygon.
Are you saying you have a set of overlapping faces or something? I'm pretty sure you should be able to find a way of generating verticies from that..

Perhaps just describe it a little.

>>144111627
seriously how complex is it to make a custom ship builder and have it behave as a whole? Is it as simple as altering the rigidbody's center of mass and other features based on the position and weight of its components? How automatic/complex is it to make once you have the physics engine?

>>144111981
someone should just make a fucking compile and put it on the op but everything are too lazy

>>144111981
>>144112067

WHAT DO YOU WANT WITH ASEPRITE?

>>144111868
It's a voronoi system, so I am not certain how I would find the points on each polygon, since they have a variant amount.

>>144111968
Because you're trying to avoid the inevitable.

>>144112180

i just want to use it m8

>>144111782
So you mean that each polygon is described by a simple set of points?

>>144112312

How it works currently is it is literally a region of the screen coloured in dependent on their proximity to a point.

>>144112394
Learning c++ because you realize there's no real alternative and visual coding will always be shit until we have super advanced AR.

>>144111784
>cooking BP to C++
If that'd help then the had a terrible blueprint implementation.

The problem with non-native code formats is that if they had the specificity that native code has then they'd just be a native code wrapper.

It's not complicated. The only advantage these things have is that if they leave enough up to the compiler they compiler can do smart stuff. With native code your programmer expects the result of the individual operations to be as expected. When you just define a process like you would in BP's for instance you can have the compiler optimize for cache-line misses etc.

Sadly we don't see that happen most of the time. Best we've seen tends to be JIT which gets you up to maybe decent rather than piss poor.

Translating blueprints like this doesn't make much sense because the representation the compiler comes up with is just what you've happened to write there. Recreating a BP from scratch in C would be much better simply because the effort of fixing the code the cooking process creates is a larger hassle than rewriting it usually (assuming you wanted to get something out of the translation, assuming they weren't retarded, see top of my post).

I know c++. I use BP until it gets to messy/slow (which now very rarely will happen) and then i just abstract computationally heavy/complex parts into c++.

Anyone who dismisses blueprints just because its "visual/block programming" has failed to understand how much quicker it is to use and debug compared to c++. I have respect for people who stick entirely to c++ but blueprints is useful to alot of people.

Depends. Hey, want a horrifically compressed video of me adding a thing on a thing?

No, but for real it has to do with a whole lot of special little nonsense that has nothing to do with a physics engine. Build the builder first if you're into doing this. Make the physics work for it, rather than the other way around.

>>144113156
that has nothing to do with the metroidvania gameplay. you could as easily make a metoridvania where you attack by bouncing your tits at the enemies. literally any game can be a lewd game

An RPG with the ability to incite a mass-effect style sex scene on almost anyone as a means to an end. See a monster girl? Rape it so it doesn't eat you. Prices too high? Give that properly raised christian girl store clerk a look into the magical world of anal.

No you clearly don't have respect for people who stick entirely to C++.
>Anyone who dismisses blueprints just because its "visual/block programming" has failed to understand how much quicker it is to use and debug.
And you're right not to. People who stick to C++ for that reason are dumb. The iteration time on C++ code is C++ issues really. There's no reason it should be this way other than that the C++ committee is being retarded.

I have no doubt this stuff will get fixed when we leave C++.
>>144113335
Sounds like that's a release build-step. Surely you could automate this. Assuming you're not way out of your depth and shouldn't be using something as heavy as UE4. (or any other engine written by someone other than yourself)

>beside shooting and flying

Well, thats the gist of it. Its going to be 1v1 dueling multiplayer gameplay with an ingame economy based around gambling with ingame currency that you can only earn in winning matches, or by building a vessel for another player that does well.

We're adding AI for the fuck of it, mostly to do with a single-player-ish campaign thing I'm going to be ripping off of Ace Combat for the story and characters.


>>144114146
Don't worry about it,. I can promise your game will be vastly different. I somehow doubt you're going to have a complex resource and power system with proper projectile physics that give you the ability to bounce rounds.

If anything I crave more games like this, and the only reason I'm making it is because I desperately want to play it.

It makes perfect sense.

It's made by practically one guy. It's open source and completely free, but he sells binaries as a convenience for idiots like you.

>>144113303
It looks promising. The music really gives it an epic vibe, yet I wonder how the game (and the controls) actually feels like. I don't get the setting. Are you in the future? The Nth dimension? It makes hard to relate to the world and the character. Maybe knowing the backstory helps.

Other than this, you have one of the most clever level designs I have seen among /agdg/ games so far. It's hard to explain why, but it really shows that you have put a lot of effort into the challenges, and the different obstacles has a great chemistry with the platforms and your skill set. Great job on that.

Uncalled for. I was asking why there was a paywall. I have been using the trial version because I assumed it wasn't free. Just gonna compile it now.

It is cliche, and I wasn't saying do it; I was giving a really obvious example of the KIND of hook you want. Something easy to understand, that makes you want to get to the end.

Also, you better have boss fights. Unless this is some procedurally generated thing (hello, Spelunky!) boss fights MAKE platformers like this.

Unity, Photon Network (already done in an earlier version, taken out recently to add in building ships), and the player count could be around four for everything to work.

The economy will mostly be run by AI manufacturers, and players will only really be able to make a significant impact after gaining quite the hefty bit of wealth. The more important part of the economy will be blueprints of player made vessels, which don't cost much to buy, but they do give the builder a percentage cut of the winnings of the match.

What's this

Working on a lifesim dialog system.

How do you think I should organize the dialog branches?

I mean, obviously some branches should be locked behind a relationship level. Should I keep those branches in a separate "cluster"/array/data structure?
Same with questions asked to the player?

And for repeat branches I'm thinking a list that keeps track of branch indexes so as to not repeat them unless other dialog options are exhausted?

Seems like theres a lot of ways to tackle this. Wonder how games like AC manage them.

I could have silly animations like them diving in the ground as if it was water, posing like this and slowly fusing into the ground and stuff. http://gregcookland.com/journal/uploaded_images/picHasselHoff-747711.jpg

But that would be a little too humorous I think.

Components? Not so much yet. Right now everything is very basic. Shooting things just spawns an invisible sphere for a fraction of a second, which creates pseudo CLANG, which damages ships.

Earthbound backgrounds are good when they're not too attention-catching: slow moving patterns, dark colors that don't grab your player's attention. Basically the opposite of what you have right now.
See Zero Quest dev's take on the concept. http://zeroquest.tumblr.com/

Oh, and get rid of the goddamn tilting, or make it an option. Preferably off by default. It really throws off the player's focus after a while.
Still, good luck, this looks cool.

>>144121560
Well anon as a general principle for collision detection you need:
something that defines the shape you're testing against.
something that defines the shape you're testing with.
They need to share formats (in some way, a point is an infinitely small square/circle)
And you need an intersection tests (of which there's many to choose from)

You describing "it's a region" doesn't make much sense.

you could have a sine wave function draw over the screen and fill the bottom half. You can do intersection testing on that, even if it doesn't have any vertices or anything like that.

But since you can call it a "region" you've defined that region in some way. It can be a width and a height from a point or something.

You really have to be more descriptive.

If it's actually just a distance from a point that's effectively just a circle.

>>144122118
I am describing what it is at the moment in my project, it is literally just a region of coloured shape, no edges, no vertices, no vectors.

I have no idea how I would go about testing collision against that or, alternatively, go about generating edges and/or vertices from that.

Anon how did you create this mystical shape? Did you just tell your engine "draw shape". Unlikely.

There's something deciding how far away from the point the (implicit) edge of the region is. If there's no hard edge and it just fades out or something you can still determine the edge by the rate of fade and the initial color.

Can you post a screenshot?

looks like you're going to have to figure out what all those shapes are in mathematical terms then

is that hand drawn or something

>>144122932
>then small tiles are decided individually based on what point is closest.
That's where you figure out your points.
What's that called? I don't remember exactly.

Thank you yet again for that Full Sail shitposting. Can you hurry up and die now, shitfam?

>>144122847

i made a huge dev playlist but I dont want to post it because someone will dox me.

>>144122401
Reek, Reek, Reek. Why are you trying to deflect like this? People are just going to see you for who you are. Again. And again. And again. Lol.

First person to post progress gets a blowjob

Vine pls

>>144123212
Also.

Why the fuck are you so damn cryptic about this? I don't remember exactly what that kind of generated pattern is called but it sure as hell is well known.

And if you get get the tiles (through some format) you can just intersect test against those when you have the dot unless the entire set of points insertion is required. I'd advise against that then. Just make a collision map of them on generation then.

I've made them a little better at catching the player now.
God damn post timer..

I'm not entirely sure what to do about this though. Right now I increase their air-drag when they get close. So they decrease their velocity overall and their acceleration becomes more effective for navigating.

>>144123187
It's a randomly generated vonoroi diagram

>>144123212
I thought about this, but then I am not entirely sure how I would do it. One solution would be to use fortunes algorithm, since that gives you intersections. But since this is already existent and works completely different, and I cannot understand how i would go about drawing a parabola, I am kinda stuck.

When the skeletons are about to unspawn, they strike a pose to mock you before exploding and not leaving any bones behind.

If you kill them properly they'll leave bones and some kind of exp currency that I have yet to make.

>>144123878
Install it ya dingus

anyone hear something? no?
alright keep devving

>sourcefam is STILL posting even though he is fully dying from meth pill withdrawal
Fucking hilarious. Spending your last moments in life """""""trolling"""""""" /agdg/. Lol.

>>144123878
I'l make a statically linked version. Didn't consider that.
>>144124002
Generally shouldn't just download DLL's like that. I won't make him download the correct visual C++ redistributable version. That's a bit onerous.

>>144124167
>Fucking hilarious. Spending your last moments in life """""""trolling"""""""" /agdg/. Lol.
This is so ironic it hurts
Get help

>>144123156
That looks positively charming! I'd love to play that.

Friendly reminder that shitposting is against the global rules and should be reported. Do your part to keep /agdg/ clean! Report ALL posters giving nodev "advice"!

So I've been staring at this for the last 3 hours, an I can't figure out why it's not working, because it seems like it should be working.

I'm making a tile based game, wherein the field is a grid starting at (0,0) all the way through (field_width, field_height), and trying to create a movement field whose size is based on the characters movement.

Currently, it turns the spot where the Pointer Object is into a moveable spot and its surrounding tiles but nothing else

if confirm_key { //Placeholder for Menu Confirm for Move
movement = 5 //Placeholder for Character Movement
moveable[Pointer.pos_x, Pointer.pos_y] = true;
var j = 0
var k = 0
var move_runner = 0

while move_runner != movement{
//Add Possible Tiles to moveable_wait
while j != field_width {
while k != field_height {
if moveable[j,k] = true {
if (j-1)>(-1) {moveable_wait[j-1,k] = true}
if (j+1)<(field_width+1) {moveable_wait[j+1,k] = true}
if (k-1)>(-1) {moveable_wait[j,k-1] = true}
if (k+1)<(field_height+1) {moveable_wait[j,k+1] = true}
}
k++
}
k=0
j++
}
//Then Make Them moveable and remove them from moveable_wait
var n = 0
var i = 0
while n != field_width {
while i != field_height{
if moveable_wait[n,i] = true {
moveable[n,i] = true
moveable_wait[n,i] = false
}
i++
}
i=0
n++
}
move_runner++
}

var n = 0
var i = 0
while n != field_width {
while i != field_height{

if moveable[n,i] = true {
instance_create(grid_x[n,i], grid_y[n,i], Move_Highlight)
}
i++
}
i=0
n++
}
}

Visual studio is such an amazingly nice IDE. You have no idea what you're missing out on you guys.

Screw it.
Here's my file.

>exploding skeletons striking poses
Absolutely radical. I'm flattered you actually took my advice.

>the latest sourceposting meme is based on a post of mine

I'm sorry guys.

also

>Tfw you have your character designed but don't know what "sets him apart" yet in terms of what I will do for mechanics

I feel like a lot of the time I'm waiting for "the perfect game" to pop into my head that will define me as a dev (and person).

>>144124181
Just like this. REPORT THIS POST specifically. This Full Sail shitposting """"advice""""" needs to go, and stay gone. Forever and fully.

Kinda wanna learn Godot because >muh free software but I've actually got a good grasp on GM now and it's advanced enough to make what I want

Why is life so complicated

Obviously Windows 7.
And yeah I'd install Code::Blocks if I didn't just use VS for building usually.

>>144123156

>implying you made that
awesome evidence of your hard work there
just post pics from a AAA game and tell people 'yeah, i made something like this for free no big deal'

does anyone have a torrent for the pico-8 software?

>>144124670
Nothing wrong with wanting to expand and try something new.
Although if it's another program that has its own dedicated language you might want to reconsider unless you intend to stick with it.

>>144124986

yep

>>144125071
Game?

>>144124670
>because >muh free software
Only promote free software when it's good free software.

>>144123156
Best game on agdg

>>144124536
I'm trying to have the game be as creepy as possible and I think that you need some comfy/comedic relief even in a creepy game to make the creepiness stand out more so there we have it with the skeletons.

Most of them will stop but I'll make it so one will sometimes chase you and never stop to keep the player from seeing them as nothing but shooting targets. "one of them could fuck with me" is better than "they're always a threat" because it's unpredictable.

This will be in the main game mode but not the competitive one. Competitive will just be the ball and the shotgun.

>>144125216

Its going to be the "stranded in empty space zero-gravity"-spoopy-game
