>>150031203

I want to add gamepad support, but I'm too dumb to figure out how to make it work alongside keyboard controls.

Is using XML-files or other file for storing information about creatures and environment a good idea?

I want to make games where bots fight other bots without minimal human intervention beyond betting.

something like saltybet.

anyone here interested?

>>150032780
Not really but no one is stopping you.

>>150032906
interested in what?

>>150032780
I think yes. You skip compiling times, so it's easy to test changes, and XML and JSON is just so good for storing data.

>>150032994
Yes, that's what I'm after. On the other side I need to think of another way of getting the creatures into the game as I can't use specialised classes and instead I have to rely on names or ids.
I'll figure out something and if the project is too small then I see no reason in using external datasheets.

>>150032328
thanks
the webm shows a homing weapon pickup
it allows the player to deal a steady stream of damage while dodging the hazards
due to the fact that bullets automatically aim at nearest available target, it makes dealing with enemies attacking from distance tad more difficult; also the bullets are launched further away from the character, making close encounters more chaotic too

>>150034119
Is she a human or something else?

>>150034223
human. She'll be the first non-optional character the player encounters.

So what do you guys reccomend for a newcommer to start with?

I just downloaded Game Maker and made a moving ghost, it felt good to be able to see results after just a few minutes.

>>150033218
Thanks anon!
>>150033984
Yeah those explosions are actually based off of some sprite explosions from the free marketplace. Simply recolored it and added loads of particles.
The sparking nebula is just an object with an animated sprite set at a random interval to make it seem dynamic.

>>150034423
keep iterating. You can do a lot with GM. As long as you keep going at it. If you're really new, stick to something really simple. Work your way into more complicated stuff, becauyse that requires more time and focus.

Unless you're already used to working crazy hard, in which case, go nuts.

So I would like to implement a Logger for my game. One, ideally, which could write to an in-game dev console (which will double as a means for editing the game during runtime). But Loggers can write to a variety of places (the first that come to mind are the console, the in-game console, and files).

I've come up with an idea to create an interface for each type of Log and have a main Logger class use that to write its logs wherever the Log itself decides.

example code given: http://pastebin.com/nGDcfmcq

How does this sound? Viable?
I'm attempting to write my engine as loosely-coupled as possible, which is a hard exercise for me.

Not bad. I like the mood of it. It's repetitive and the melody doesn't go anywhere although it seems like it's building up to something.

Hey, /agdg/, first timer here. I have an idea for a game pretty much fleshed out in my head and the only thing stopping me from working on it (besides motivation) is knowing what type of database to use. What type of database is good to use for video games? Ideally I want to have multiple tables each with potentially hundreds or thousands of records easily searchable/sortable but I also want it to be portable, i.e. I don't want anyone playing this game to have to install SQL Server or some shit. Do you guys have any suggestions?

>>150040942
Lua is kind of databasey with all its tables

Could I make a sandboxy space game now that No Man's Sky is coming out?

Feels like anyone who would want to play my game could play NMS instead

>>150040942
Hundreds OR thousands doesn't require a real database. Hundreds OF thousands does. Chances are pretty good that you can just store the data on disk (maybe slap on some encryption if you feel like it), then load it all into memory when you start the game. If that's not good enough then SQLite is pretty much made for what you are asking for here, but in some cases it might be overkill. Depends on the data really.

I realize it shouldn't require a database just for the amount of data, but I would like to use one simply because I am very familiar with using databases and being able to read/write/search/sort as I am used to doing would greatly simplify the project.

>>150041508
it doesn't look intimidating though.

Size isn't everything. A lot of the scariest enemies in games are actually small.

Quite honestly, this looks like it will be a really boring fight. Its one of the problems with big enemies, they are largely passive and stationary, which makes them uninteresing.

>>150041205

Ah okay, I understand.If I would like to actually sell it for money I would have to do some changes, mostly changing colors on textures that should do it for most things. But as for now I planned to make it a free game and I dont think Sega goes after free games like Sonic fangames and satire games like "Sonic Dreams Collection"

Even though I have thought about ways making a bit of money from it, It's not really a viable option unless I change up a bunch of things and then joke would be lost mostly, so no real way of monetization.

>>150041739
True! The way I plan on having the fight work is more of an autoscroller battle, which involves the MC running until the Leviathan gets stuck and you end up attacking while its movement is hindered. So while you won't see the entire monster onscreen at the same time, you would end up seeing the whole creature.

I appreciate your input. Suggestions on how to make it more intimidating?

I think we can subvert the "slow colossus" trope by having the chase section be fast paced, and keep the player on their toes during the actual fight with environmental effects and maybe a beam attack that keeps you constantly repositioning. Arikado has already mentioned he really hates bosses that just spawn enemies, so we'll be avoiding that a much as possible.

>>150043165
Thanks! I'm also a huge SotC nerd as well as drawing inspiration from Berserk, you're gonna see plenty more big enemies in the future (animating is gonna kill me)

Here are some of the more mook enemies I've come up with to populate the forest. Still in the process of making more. Any ideas?

>>150043657

>>150043965
>(animating is gonna kill me)
You can go with the cheap approach death's gambit used with skeletal animation.

I'd rather have many giant bosses to fight with skeletal animation than only a couple because you had to animate by hand.

>>150043972
pertinent to what? it's an angled grid comparison for conveying the diagonal movement problem (shows why it's an issue for both move speeds and A* and so on).

Well that depends entirely on what you're using

Have a central manager for this
>input handling
Your handler should turn actual devices into game input
Like your character shouldn't be checking if the keyboard key A was pressed, it should check for the jump button or move button. Your handler maps that to whatever keyboard or gamepad key the user changed to.

Micro-games will be back, just in the form of 'ultimate' skills you can charge up during combat (sort of like the Star Power moves in Paper Mario).

They'll be a lot more powerful too. Like, the Shooter's one will turn your mouse cursor into an aiming reticule that lets you freely shoot any enemy on the screen in realtime for a few seconds (like in a rail shooter).

You're head is so far up your own ass it's marvelous.

"be funny" is 50x more challenging than any fucking "reskin your game to be in space" theme and "be funny + enable lets players to be funny" is 500x more challenging.

>fucking "reskin your game to be in space" theme
You're legit angry. That's funnier to me than any "funny" game you've ever made.

Why do people bully gogem?

Stop bullying.

>>150049501

And yet you're still a fucking nobody kicking around an amateur game dev thread like a high school dropout who can't move on with his life.

Snaggled tooth aussie shitposter who's a 30 year old man who's only relevant for making edgy games to get attention and posting on AGDG.

I'd seriously kill myself if I ended up like him 9 years later.

That's adorable, don't ever stop

>>150049531
I hope you UV mapped it first before rigging

>>150050093
All themes for gamejams in the past 2 years were boring except for the one PewDiePie came up with. Got it.

Don't know if I approve of this chicken very much, as AGDG's resident chicken developer.

>>150050462
It's not a main character, don't worry. You can have main chicken light.

Not it failed
The network effect would've had your highest peak within the first days and slowly decrease as hype dies

You had no hype dude
