re-added land bouncing. Is a bit goofy but I will try to make it so you can push up too high. The problem with addforce is you need to ensure your current vector is zero but that is simple enough to do.

nope. I am painting everything in photoshop but I work at a large enough resolution that it should look clean no matter what. the only real issue is when the resolution is very small it starts to not work so well because the mipmaps generated aren't great but that can be mitigated with trilinear filtering.

>16x16 sprites are too big
Fuck off. You should be aiming for at least 50 pixels along one dimension. And that's for small sprites.

If you actually think 16x16 is acceptable you need to throw yourself in front of a moving train.

There's no reason to use bigger resolutions if the art can be done in a small resolution and still be fully understood. You just don't get it.

>>147518654
Terrible.

>>147518547
May I ask about the actual numbers? I would like to take the same approach for my sprites, but I'm new to arts and graphic design and don't know what resolutions should I have for the original, and for the in game picture. Currently I'm aiming for 64x64 assets, but I fear that the original wouldn't scale well if I don't draw it at the right resolution. That's why I thought I might create the original in a vector graphics program like Inkscape.

I don't think that's what bit means and regardless 12bit memory architecture was a real thing.

>>147518868
You say that, but the picture with the blood on a snow surface wasn't kind of a hint?

And you still are only showing pictures of blood with no info on how it dropped or anything, and that's still like at 30cm acroos, my pool is around 1-2m., meaning that without you actually attaching your feedback those pictures mean nothing to me.

>>147518973

>>147518814

a sprite sheet or texture in general, or I guess any computer image I think, tends to work best when it is a squared power of 2. I don't know the history but I think this just also has to do with the bit processing power of machines.

but nowadays you can make sprites any damn size. plenty of games even that era had 42 pixel height, I think they just combined two sprites on top of one another for that effect. you could always do 32x that's a pretty nice size for simple sprites and they scale alright. If you get too big you might run into the problem KoF had where it could take you a year just to sprite one character because it's so large (they had insanely huge sprites though)

>>147519058

> Ask for feedback

> 'Nah that feedback is shit and invalid'

Kys.

>>147518593
Why's that bad? It first explains how to get an image into SDL. This is the part where he talks about surfaces. Then he explains how you can display that image as a texture, thus using GPU power, which is when you create a rendering context from said surface. If you read about this issue, you'll see that there's no workaround it. You have to load it to a surface then create a texture from it, then you copy that texture to the renderer. Don't forget to destroy the surface after you've created a texture from it.

Really, the first 20-25 tutorial is more than enough for a start. You don't even need timers or gamepad inputs for first, so all in all you need ~10 chapters (I personally saved 6 and used as reference).

You have to go back.

>>147517908
wouldnt the snow melt from the heat of the blood some (90+ degrees) so shouldnt there be a depression in the middle of your pool? further more wouldnt it look less consistent.

>>147519179

>>147519058
you should fix your snow before working on the blood splatter

>>147519085
Thanks for the explanation! So if I get you right, you let the game engine itself scale the images for you for the correct size?

>>147519185
Sorry but just posting and image and saying "Yours looks nothing like this" isn't feedback, especially if the image is only loosely connected to what was trying to be achieved.

>>147519268

>>147519326

Unity's camera (if in perspective mode) seems to automatically scale the image but I tried pixel art in unity once before and it is not fun.

when I tried some stuff in LOVE2D the way that had to be done is you set a resolution and then you could scale the entire window with an inbuilt function. It depends on what engine you're using. I imagine gamemaker might have something like that too. Pixel art games will have to lock their aspect ratio too.

then again if you're using a point and click engine like the adventure game studio I thin it's called it actually has none of those functions inbuilt r even possible I think so make sure you research whatever engine you're working on.

Nice try mate. I gave you an example of how blood looks on the ground. Splattered down, following a pattern which is logical to the situation.

Your image didn't contain a pattern nor was it logical.

You didn't specify the ground was snow nor is it to be seen that way. Your blood is black and nót red and it doesn't contain any shading.

There you go. Feedback.

You should make one first. It helps with clothing models. Wrinkles on clothing follow the human figure, which is why its recommended to make a base mesh of a human and rip parts of the body to solidify them.

>>147519651
Yeah the color thing occured to me, but it looks so cartoonish when "reality red". Might try it though.

>>147519316
Any suggestion on how? Right now its almost not even a texture so i guess its time to work on it aswell, it looks like snow in context though and it has some of that characteristic glittering when viewed up close.

artistic blood is typically a combination of transparent red that is mimicking the plasma and a very dark (almost black) middle which is the clump of dried blood cells. Take note of the word "artistic" as this is not really what happens in real life.

then you can go for coagulated blood and more "chunks" when you kill something human its very fluid, when you kill something thats diseased or dying internally or has something wrong with it, you will see darkening but there needs to be another change otherwise like that anon said it looks like oil. you could also add some maggots

Is there a simple way of recording footage of my game in 1920x1080 while staying in the editor and not having to build the game every time?

Or would it be better to take all my footage inside the editor and just let youtube upscale it?

Unity? It has a game window to preview that you can record you know.

>>147523705
dxtory sort of works, but it creates one video for each editor window you have open (inspector, console, e.t.c.), and it includes the border, but you can crop in webm for retards pretty easily

gee I don't know maybe the fact that I'm not a human calculater and actually have creativity?

>>147523830
I usually just record straight from that because webms end up in something like 500-720p most of the time but now I want the game to be full sized but the editor is always taking some space unless I'm playing a fullscreen build. It would be highly convenient to simply record in the editor but then I get a weird aspect ratio.

They are asking for 100,000 USD AND using GDevelop (which is open source and free). GDevelop only works propperly with visual programming since the c++ stuff it implements is useless.

> Shit posting about agdg being shit

>>147524010
Yeah, artists tend to not know how much work implementing a specific feature takes ("MMOs are easy, right?"), just like how developers sometimes have no idea of the time an artist would need to spend illustrating an aspect of the game ("art for a fighting game character is easy, right?").

The trick is communication until you both agree on what exactly you're going to work on. A common design document helps.

>>147524221
way too many tris

>GameMaker's tutorials tell you to make variables with extremely generic names like "music" or "width".

This can't be right, right?

Anyone have any experience rendering out pixel art from blender?

>>147524449
it helps if the artist and program have dipped their hands into all parts of the spectrum, i have done, music and programming . the later i am not wasting my time with anymore

>>147524449
The real trick is to learn both aspects, even if it's just scratching the surface. An artist who has no experience programming is infinitely less pleasant to work with than a programmer who's made a couple of games on their own and vice versa

>>147524459
Probably not, I don't even know what are they going do with them.

>>147524449

Is not exactly wrong, but is not recomended at all, since you could start confusing and repeating stuff. You better something more specific and that you can recall easilly.

>>147524835

>>147524926

That wouldn't change the fact that it's a huge waste of time for an amateur artist.

>>147524835
This seems hugely useful for any game that requires a huge amount of frames like fighting games.
Posing 3D is much easier than drawing each frame.

>>147524959
You're a waste of time but that didn't stop your parents from having you

>>147524959
If you have experience in 3D it's way faster to make one model and render out sprites than learn pixel art and draw them all at once.

yeah if you are making something with a lot of sprites and you need reference, and arent an anatomical genious(even if you arent) you can save time having someone create lowpoly 3d models to get things right. SNK and the developers of blazblue use this method for KOFXII and KOFXIII and BlazBlue, it also helps with lightning, though i believe KOFXIII has a weird lighting engine

Anyway, i'll bite.

There is no modern C game programming guide; the closest thing you
can get is Programming Linux Games and it uses SDL 1.2.

Why don't you stop complaining and just make your furry shit come true?
Just use whatever you can find and adapt it.

The best thing for experienced C programmers is this:

honestly the only good things you can take away from dumb 80s anime style is big poofy hair and faces with actual noses and profiles.
make sure to ditch the terrible color/shading design first thing, ruins everything.

I only had a side reference, so I don't know what its suppose to look like from the other views.

Anyone know of a way I can get a humblebundle gamemaker key?

Even if I have to meet up with a russian in a back alley, I am willing

Based gogem laying it down.

great for a second game, same for pacman/bomberman

always go with something like pong for a first game.
never make your EPIC MMORPG WITH 1000 CLASSES AND 100000 WEAPONS fisrt

And also I've posted different sprites. And even the recap pic itself shows progress. Look at how it was before

That's like saying that no one should use low poly models nowadays because it looks stupid, that's part of the style.

Making sprites is not making a game.

>>147528641
Wooow
Amazing progress, no wonder it took you 4 weeks.

I never got the "remake Tetris as your first game" thing. Either you're doing beginner-unfriendly thing with arrays, or using a bunch of awful hacks to get around it.

>>147528641
I've never seen you post progress either, you don't even have screenshots. So up until now I thought this was an in-joke or something.
Got anything to show us? Or have you just been spending months on these twelve pixels?

>>147528641
Art is not progress.

He's being sarcastic genius

Making sprites for a game is making a game

>>147528801
I disagree

>>147528735
Not like I can work every day

>>147527325
this looks fucking awful, but it might be well done in a 3d engine because of how lightning and stuff works

Just now watching the video from a previous thread about an anime fan being thrown to jail, and lolling.

"This stuff is really really really something important to me." LOL

Serves him right. Don't even try to claim that a significant portion of moefans aren't straight up sick pedoshits.

people make lowpoly but no one emulates ps1 visuals because having lowres textures and crappy shaders doesn't help your lowpoly look good.
if you're going to rob graves it's best to just take the wedding bands instead of taking the entire rotting corpse.

They are but my stance has always been that it's better for people like that to live out those desires in the virtual world than IRL with possible criminal implications
