hey guys just letting you know that if you are interested in making music for your game and don't know where to start I can suggest using MuLab, which is a completely free program that I came across just recently. As someone who is planning on writing all the music for his game (and doing everything else as well) I can recommend it.

>>148226274
I'll check it out. Thanks.

What I need the most though is to learn some music theory otherwise I'll just be fucking around with the program without ever making something actually good.

>>148226436
I mean, listen to this. Wherever I try, this kind of stuff is the only thing that comes out.

Got some more work done on the weapons system yesterday. By finding different chips for your blaster, you can affect the fire rate, number of projectiles, damage, and effects, which also affects how fast the blaster will overheat, and how quickly its able to mitigate heat.

These chips will be randomly generated as you open crates, and different brands will perform differently, such as Rojier Arms chips are mostly balanced, whereas Smuggler chips will do more damage but overheat pretty fast.

Rotatedev has stopped posting on AGDG and dropped rotatevania a while ago. Rotate is now my gf.

>is googum still around?
Unfortunately, yes

>is simloli infinitely banned?
He posts somewhat infrequently, usually when he adds a new feature. I'm not sure if it's because he's busy with non-dev stuff or he's just slow at progress, but these updates are very spaced apart.

>has marmo finished his game?
marmo is dead

>wheres that paper mario clone guy?
I think he deals with IRL stuff since he usually comes in for a couple days, then vanishes for weeks, and then comes back for a few days.

Added a unit that can steal enemy units.

This will be interesting to balance. This unit has more parameters to balance than any of the others:
>move speed
>maximum size
>minimum size to cast its capture
>range of capture ability
>cost to cast capture
>restrictions on size of captured unit
>can you used the captured unit this turn, or wait?

Currently it takes about 3 turns to get set up and into position. I'm balancing for solo play where the AI gets many more units, not PvP, so I could afford to make this unit very powerful. Mind control units feel fun, when they're not used against you.

>>148228172

>>148228182
how do the snake tails play into the strategy of the game? do they block enemy units from moving? or kill them if they move into them?

>>148228182
How are you going to make the hand units useful when they are too slow to not be picked off by a ranged unit?

>>148228062
Write down a list of random concepts (not even game genres, I'm talking about list entries like "soap" and "swarm of insects in a business suit") and, once the list is done, go through it and try to picture how each one could possibly be made into a fun game.

>>148228531
>soap
sliding at fast speeds

Could be fun

>>148228601
Maybe a game similar to Dustforce where cleaning is the objective, but you can use your own soap sprays to increase your speed?

>>148228414
The tails only block from moving, and function as the health of the snake. There is no push to move every single turn. Sometimes waiting is best.
The icon at the head of the snake is what casts all the abilities to deal damage.

>>148228424
Besides Bit-Man, they are the only unit that can break walls. I'm trying to shit out a lo of units, and then balance later.

>>148228657
Can the snakes' tails be attacked to deal damage to the unit, or does only the head take damage?

>>148228724
Any part of the snake can be attacked to deal it damage, and the head is no longer a one-hit-kill.
In the July 7 demo build, all snakes one punched when you hit the head.

Are there any tools for recording WebMs that don't involve recording actual video in Fraps or something and then converting it?

>>148228657
Oh shit, I didn't even know they could make blocks. Are you going to add the sumo guys and lag guys? I love those dudes. The Turbo piece was awesome, too

I'm very wary about adding lag units (called Clog iirc), especially the one that stops it completely. With a combination of Bit-Mans and Clog, you could make a 2 wide tunnel and kill enemies one at a time.

Turbo and Fiddle were OP when combined with the Bug units, since your could make a Bug with 10 speed and 30 health (20 was not the max, only what they gave to Sumo) if you had enough time and a protected space, which Lag and Bit-Man buy you.

Giving the AI some equivalent to Bit-Man mitigates this, of course. I'll probably still add Clog and Tuurbo, but nerf them.

Sumo is definitely going in, it's simply a variation on the basic move-attack unit with extreme parameters. I might give it an ultimate if it has over 16 segments too.

>>148229320
pixels can't have sexual orientations

>>148229356
keep in mind that as the dev, you have access to all the stats and know exactly how AI works and what kind of exploits can be used

The devs of the original knew all that too, and still left in a strategy that easily beats 90% of their levels. Obviously they were aiming only at a casual market. I want to build a system that doesn't have any degenerate strategies like that, and still feel like you are exploiting the AI.

Turn limits. Problems solved. Now the player is forced to prioritize

>>148229995
Yeah, I might have made a mistake when I made the player be the defender. Turn limits are no viable in the current game.mode, where the goal is to survive

I like what XCOM did in EW, where the alien DNA stuff that expires. No overall turn limit, but two small ones. I could add captures that give you a bonus unit, at places far from the center of the map.

I agree with this part of your post even though I really love Dark Souls. The first encounter with the dragon where he burns the bridge is a good example. It reminded me of a shitty flash game or IWTBTG where something comes out of nowhere to kill you.
No one can argue that the Bed of Chaos fight is good either. Mindnumbingly easy until you get to the 'platforming section' and it's like an 70/30 tossup whether you will actually make it.
On that note, the Anor Londo archers, I know they're an epic meme, but it's just fucking terrible design.

>>148230771
The current arcarde mode, where you defend an orb in the middle. I'm thinking that each unit is unlocked during gameplay, and the AI gets each new unit first. Once you kill one of a unit type, you can start spawning it.

One where the roles are reversed, and you try to advance. I think that one will happen in a long tunnel, with maybe disappearing terrain bhind you? That way you have incentive to proceed.

Nightfall style missions where you select a team of units, or are given a fixed set of units. The enemies and their locations are always the same. I;m just now realizing NIghtfall was really a puzzle game. The goal can be either kill all enemies or capture a point. I can make the puzzles much harder than NIghtfall.

I had some good ideas while typing this, thanks

Unity hates pixel art.

This guy's talk covers pixel art and how to fix it some issues.

The set pixel to unit size in ration to the screen should fix the gaps between the points. Pressing V while moving and snapping the top left of the object's square to the next one might help too.

Nice. To add to this feedback. About the hitscan enemies. Around 1:00 there's an enemy that doesn't trigger until you're right around the corner. With a non-hitscan enemy that'd be an interesting interaction. Here it's just as any other interaction. Perfect example of how hitscan enemies can be very uninteresting and limit design when you use them.

Consider this with hitscan enemies. There's a reason this works OK.

I can't decide which direction should I take this to. Be cartoony (the head is basically just a circle with the nose standing out), or realistic (with lips and chin). I think I might learn more if I choose the latter, however the former looks more 'fun' to me, which might suit a game better. I'm still learning this shit, so no bully please. ;_;

>>148232515
Jesus fucking christ. I held Ctrl to snap it when I placed it, but because you mentioned it I went and checked if it was even in the right spot, turns out Unity decided to add a couple of decimals in to the X position, so it was the fucking tile that was off all along.

I've managed to solve the other pixel issues by using this dudes method already, and I'll use it for now

Nobody is going to sue you for copying publicly available code like say stack-overflow.
If you copy an implementation from say Unreal Engine 4 if you've subscribed and have access to the github that's actually illegal but it's not like anyone is going to know what your source looks like.

If you're solving the same problem then ideally the compiler should compile down to the same byte code anyway.

As for open source code (and assuming your game is open source) always check licences and see if you approve.

>>148235308

Well to be honest the only thing that told me it's a girl is the hair. The overall artstyle in those books I'm making my assumptions based of was fairly androgynous so I'm an expert at telling if there's a trap or not. A boy would have the right side kind of eyebrow on the left face. And the chin makes the one on the right far close to a boy. I wouldn't say most recognize it, sorry.

Here there's even identical faces on the two kids in front. So me using that as a reference is kinda shit.

Some progress on my Space Jam entry.
Now NPC ships can chase and attack the player. I'm trying to understand why they don't look at the player while chasing, since I'm using the same logic as when they're patrolling. I already fixed the ship shooting even after exploding.
Also added a "owner" variable to bullets. Haven' implemented it yet, but this will enable ships to know who is shooting them, so if a NPC ship gets shot by another, it will attack it.

Moreover, I changed the way the player ship moves. Now it uses Unity's physics. I don't like it a lot but it works I guess.
Also, clicking the middle mouse button you can insta-brake. This will help with not running into obstacles when you're going fast. To not make it OP, I'll put it behind a cooldown so you can't spam it.

I have problem with unity and maybe someone will help me.
2 objects, parent and chid. Parent is physic object, child kinematic.
Child have collider.
If I just run game with enabled collider, it's working.
But when I disable/enable collider by script, it never works. As I see it's became enable, but it won't stop object from going through things.

Oh there's plenty worse things. One picture booki had was about a kid who's mom was a really rad witch. And at the end the dad (after he had been shrunk and had been sitting in a jar for the majority of the story) was turned into a toad and used by the kids mom to make some potion. Their attitude to the whole thing was rather indifferent since he became a ghost.
That shit was amazing though. It put this witch through incredibly normal situations like sitting in a waiting room etc.
>>148238382
Yes.

For simple A.I could I just record my player's position every half a second or so and get my monsters to just travel towards that point?

A* and BFS is hurting muh head, and I think I've coded myself into a corner as it seems harder to implement than I thought.

Not the dev, but hitscan enemies aren't all bad, and you certainly don't have to "just stand there and take the damage", unless the hitscanners are placed in an unavoidable, open area where you can't tactically take them out without exposing yourself - which is more a fault of poor level design, rather than of hitscanners as a whole.

>>148239026
Unless it's delayed hitscan it's unavoidable damage is the point.

Any ship building aspects planned?
And I assume the -8 health is just debug/testing code?

What happened to the guy who was learning how to make cute 3D girl?

>>148239125
It should be delayed, of course. The Doom shotgun soldier is the perfect example, where there is a slight delay of "reaction time" after which the hitscan shoots with the same downtime as your own shotgun does.
But technically speaking, even if it isn't delayed, hitscanners - generally speaking - "shoot" from a specific point on their model, and that point is a lot smaller than their model and hitbox, meaning you don't have to expose yourself to the hitscanner to kill it.

I dunno, I'm thinking it's looking ok. I'm definately looking to ape the visuals of a 2002-2005 FPS like COD2, Men of Valor, or Viet Cong 2.

chess but with anime girls as pieces.

sort of like recettear but you're managing inventories via inventory tetris

The fact that I totally would date Artist 2 if we were both available is not helping reduce the butthurt levels of Artist 1

yeah, the artstyle is lazy but does the trick, I hope
>>148242862
sorry for that, wanted to include all variables in one text screen so it's looking like that now

>>148244081
>>148244286
Looking good! The only thing I'd say texture-wise is that the wood grain on some of the weapons (the sniper rifle and tommy gun specifically) is a bit too big so it looks kind of weird.

>no-name indie artists
>somehow making a game good

>>148244772
you seem to be mistaking popular with good

>>148244772
How does a non-no name indie artist get their name?

>>148243134
Yes, you pronounce it like love. The ö is more to make the name look fancier.

>>148243485
It fits well survival games. For all other genres you're better off putting a hard limit on how much you can carry e.g.:
- for this quest you can only have three items on you
- if you want to enter the magical castle, you must leave all your weapons behind
- for safety reasons, her ass can hold no more than five dicks at a time.

Why is 2.75D so hard?

>>148244770
I love Blazing Saddles

>>148244883
If they weren't bad they wouldn't be no-names by the time they work on a game

Redpill me on the Space Jam

Why should I participate?

>>148245091
Because it's fun to make games.

>>148245091
Because you might get fanart

>>148244383
I try to get nicely formed unwraps and spend time getting them cut good for anything that will be very visible.

I get ambient occlusion bakes for most things, it makes the shadows pop better usually.

For most things I use a ton of layers, often using closeups from photos. I'll have different things on different layers and blend them together. the shirt for example is a blend of a few different shirts. And anywhere that looked too plain got a clone-paste of some creases from a part of the picture of the shirt that had more. Added a few things like some burlap texture to the elbows and knees and set it at like 90% transparency so that it just barely shows through.

I'm just merely ok, but try best and trying to stick just to regular textures without adding normals, psec, and occlusion maps (because that would be a ton more work). If you want to go down that path, the results look really good and there are free tools, but it just takes so much fucking time.

>>148244591
Yeah, that rifle is actually the absolute oldest texture still in on a weapon. I really do need to change it out so it looks more like the others.

No, but you have stupid buzzword already for promotion.

Hey guys, we got another nightly game jam coming in tonight

what theme do you vote for?:

sokoban with a twist

tile/card - laying game
flashlight mechanic
tron clone
missile command
angry birds clone
fruit ninja
base defense / castle defense game
pipe/flow game

>>148245470
But what about the LORE? I thought it was not supposed to have wings.

>>148245470
Dude fuck how do i stop this boner

I want to FUCK a mothgirl

>>148244893
Then they could have made 'e' to an 'é'.

On a serious note: how's the performance? I've left JS because I felt that if the slightest script complexity leaves an effect on performance, often taking 20% cpu power, while in C++ plus SDL my stuff usually runs at 2-3%. How about Löve?

she starts with crippled wings but a witch pillbug regenerates them for her

>>148245741
The performance is good. I'm not sure about CPU usage though. I recommend you just try it out.

Fucking hell I want porn of this already
