It's very visually empty and the star field effect doesn't work at that low a speed. it doesn't look like motion blur from going @ INCREDIBL HIHG SPED, it looks like laser beam projectiles or something. either make them go way faster or use normal dots for the stars

So, agdg, have you ever reached a poin where you open your game to work on it, and you feel you hate it from just seeing it?

I've always struggled with math and it took a lot of studying for me to pass classes on linear algebra and computer graphics (quaternions and rasterization)

even if it runs like a potato, I want to do it

>>150170767
the entire ground/background/sun etc. is one thing, and I believe the enemies are. I think the main character and particles and stuff are original

>>150171424
if you are a wage slave your only choice is unity or ue4 or rpgmaker anyway since they are fast enough to make a game in your limited wageslave free time and only require simple algebra and vector math skillz to work with

>just work on something else for a while
Yeah, guess I should take a rest sometimes, have been working on this nonstop since DD9.
Maybe work on it one week, work on something else the next week, then go back to it the next one, and so on.

>>150171424
alright well at least heed this: path tracing is a meme designed to add as much noise as possible, and the lowest discrepancy pattern possible is a regular grid

>>150170970

My game currently has two enemies in it, so I'm really just going all intensity all the time as much as possible to try and give my shit game a little pizazz.

That said, yeah, I wouldn't recommend playing it in a dark room with epilepsy.

>>150171093

Thanks! If I make a finished post-jam version there will likely be several levels and not all with this level of intensity.

>>150171025
The lighting and environment is also pretty good.

Really there's so much more to making a game look good other than just "good models" it's fucking ridiculous, you fuckers lied to me that I could get by with just programming and low poly models, but I also have to learn like a million lighting and camera tricks, color schemes, post processing effects and dozens others.

The worst part about nodevving is that it gets increasingly embarassing when you have nothing to show after such a long time.

Anyways, targeting system now takes distance and visibility into account. If anyone else needs to figure out whether a renderer is visible to the main camera, because converting to screen or viewport space didn't work: http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php/IsVisibleFrom

I made it, but I might delete it. In addition to the gameplay bugs, there's almost no juice when the ball actually hits the paddle, which is a crime in a Pong game billed as "maximum overjuiced".

It doesn't work like that, amateur game dev is all about passion. if you do it only to learn shit then you will burn out incredibly fast and fail.
Learning in game dev should always be simply a side effect of you doing a hobby you love, if that isn't the case then trust me, save yourself the time and disappointment and pick up something else you enjoy.

>>150172845

DarkBASIC is too much work for novice devs and too limiting for experienced coders. If you're in that sweet spot, it might be worth checking out, but you should know that the program was last updated in the Bush administration.

There's a few engines out there made specifically for certain genres and small teams. Ren'Py for VNs, RPG Maker for JRPGs, GZDoom for FPSes. Outside of those, you're stuck with the big 3 general purpose engines, Game Maker, Unreal and Unity, all of which are free and incredibly well documented. And yes <3

anyone here familiar with allegro 5?

why might a call to al_init() fail (thus returning 0)?

>>150173075
>unmanned only
No, it wasn't. Buran could be flown by pilots (and had additional crew compartment for up to 10 people total), but it was capable of automatic operations too.

Soyuz isn't a shuttle, it's a usual rocket "ship".

>>150174275
>No, it wasn't.
Yes, it was. No human being ever flew an orbital mission on the Buran.

>>150174275

>Soyuz isn't a shuttle, it's a usual rocket "ship".
The word you're looking for is capsule, and no shit it isn't a shuttle. What does that have to do with anything?

Added the functionality for the wizard's eye spell, though I don't have the actual spell in yet (I need the concept of "party status effects" first).

The spell makes dots on the minimap appear. Friendlies are green, enemies are red, pickups are blue, and chests are brown. Not sure if I'll leave chests in or not. Maybe they'll only be visible at Master level casting (and pickups might be only be at Expert level).

I've been struggling a lot with my anxiety and depression lately, and this has impacted my ability to work on Battle of the Heart. I'm sorry for that, truly. Instead I've switched to focusing a lot of my time to One Last Cup and making sure that we can get that in front of as many eyes as possible. To that end we had a fantastic PAX East showing of the demo of it, and Alex is now back and getting the public release of the demo ready.

New programming idea (not necessarily a game): build a web bot that simulates one of these people down to generating interesting hair colors, mental diseases and periodic histrionic meltdowns. It would be fun.

Unity is fine for 2D unless you're triggered by rixels

>>150179578
How do you even align anything at all, when stuff ends up on coordinates 0.582396, 3.59518? I'm thinking you have to make your own system... This seems like the first thing a 2d engine should have. Maybe I'm missing something?

Are there any tutorials, books, anything for making a game like Risk with gamemaker, unity, unreal, I don't care what engine?

>marvel cinematic universe: the game

So wouldnit be viable to use 3d reders of assets in a 2d game?

>>150179868
Of course they do, don't be silly. Imagine a chess game, you make a grid of sprites, the king's square ends up having coordinates like 0.500, 0.000. Then when you place the king you need to center it on the square based on the size of the piece, which could be at position 0.512593, 0.15920... It just makes no sense and is impossible to calculate out by hand. But with other 2d engines it's as simple as thinking each square is 32 pixels, E1 is then at 32*5, 0. The king's sprite is 20 pixels so you have a margin of 12 pixels, 6 on each side. That puts the king on 32*5 + 6, 6. I end up making a grid of stuff for nearly every 2d game I make.

How can we be jealous of a guy who spent the last two years tweaking a demo without learning any art, coding or any game development skill?

Two years to have a tweaked demo and a video showing the same 4 attacks constantly is definitely not impressive.

Teaching myself how to program, take three.
This time got somewhat far without feeling burned out, reached the part in stroustrups book where he starts using fltk to explain inheritance,callbacks and general oop design.
Took me a week and a half to get here and redo all the exercises in each chapter, probably due to the fact that I got to this point twice before, after which I just said "Fuck this" due to feeling severely burned out cuz of irl obligations and dedicating all my free time to learning c++. Taking it easy with just 2-3 hours a day dedicated to learning from the book/solving the exercises seems better, It doesn't affect badly on my willpower to study and I seem to be more productive during those few hours.

-new bosses and enemies

First: They aren't code.
Second: I'm not saying using blueprints is bad, I'm saying that it's not as remarkable as coding. Blueprints are meant to replace game scripting (e.g. you walk into a room and the lights turn on, a monster spawns in the air and the door behind you closes), not actual player behavior and core game logic.

So basically, it's okay if it works for you, but it's definitely not as remarkable as coding the core mechanics in a proper way.
My original post was about how he had created very little in two years by tweaking a demo with existing assets and probably core game mechanics already in place, then you all focused on the blueprints statement (which wasn't meant to be derogatory at all) and started bitching about my post.

Except it is a lot more remarkable than coding because you are being gimped when working with blueprints.
Pure code gives you more freedom, so achieving the same, good results with blueprints instead of coding is a good thing. Now I'm not saying everyone should work with blueprints, the opposite actually, but someone making a good game solely with blueprints IS remarkable , you're just discrediting devs for no reason, stop being a nodev salty faggot.

Asking 'Where is your game' as an attempt to win an argument is shitposting. In a non argument context it's alright, but if there's a conflict you have to be a retard to show your game, it's just asking for stalking and bullying.

A game where you play Ted Cruz and have to take back your delegates.

>>150185358

>>150185358
I don't care. If I didn't want to prove I have a game I wouldn't be posting here.

Don't do the crime if you can't do the time.

Let me guess, you're a nodev. Why are you here in this particular thread?

>>150185483
So you agree it's shitposting, good.

Is Exhibit A dev here? Is there any other way to beat the last boss other than spamming healing items on alien with venusian blood-converter equipped? He was disarming me and all normal attacks failed

>>150185432
Just hand over the delegates, Dahnald.

>>150185881
Exfoliator item and B's exfoliate can remove disarm I think

What is the least insane way to structure a menu system in code? Doesn't have to be widgetized.

I like how his beer belly bounces.

>>150182860
Wood and stone-based dishes, obviously.

>>150186376
with such flab you'd expect something much more bouncy than just 2 pixelshifts
same applies to that walk animation you posted a few days ago

He'll learn just like spoopy did

>>150186968
You just need to calm down mate. You need to learn to take criticism without throwing a fit and you'll be all set.

>>150186968
Have fun with all that extra time to dev!

>>150187058
What criticism?

>>150187098
