Devs are nothing more than a game to me. spend months at a time strategically planting ideas into people's games, and shitposting. i get bored of someone after a while and move on to my next victim but that's okay because there's literally billions of you dirty little yesdevs to play around with.
Some devs actually believe I care about their games but the truth is I only use them for my personal advantage and entertainment

I made so little changes that aren't under the hood that I don't know if there a point in doing it.
I feel most people won't bother playing it because it's so similar to the old demo.

>>152390994
I did not make the thread as protest to the lewd jam, I made it because many people wanted lewd jam link removed from the OP.
You're still allowed to make a lewd game, you're still allowed to discuss the lewd games, you're still allowed to enter the lewd jam. But it is not an AGDG jam, so it doesn't belong in the OP.

Does demo day have any rules about platforms? I've got an Android game and it'd motivate me even more to keep improving it.

>>152388565 →
Learning OpenGL mostly just consists messing around with variables until you gain a better understanding of what they're doing and where your error is.

Try messing around with the rotation of your model since that seems to be the problem. Also try both radians and degrees for your rotation angle, since apparently some versions of glm use degrees and others use radians.

Is anyone making a bondage game for Lewd Jam?

>>152391710
Yes, it forces the player to use their imagination and fill in the gaps on their own.

The game has tiles on the ground that aren't affected by the player's ball, just their bullets (so setting the tiles off is purely under the player's control). Each tile has a number under it and your score has to be equal or greater to activate each one. Yellow tiles spawn gold or jewels, green tiles destroy obtrusive walls and bumpers. Blue tiles turn all enemies onscreen into coins for a short duration.

Red ones do this.

I'm not at all experienced with opengl, but I get the same results copypasting the tutorial code. However, changing the -55.0f to -45.0f on the line with model = glm::rotate yields the desired results, so seems likely to just be a mistake in the sample code.

reminder you can rehash any existing game without any additional gimmicks or mechanics if you have good art

>>152395234
The background of the tunnel should be dark wall tiles, I think. Instead of just fading to show the forest background. So it feels more like a secret tunnel.

So I have a coroutine with a for loop in it. Inside the for loop, it checks to see if the for loop needs to be reset. But it never resets the number.

bool resetCountdown;

IEnumerator CountDown()
{
for (float t = 10; t >= 0; t -= 0.1f)
{
if (resetCountdown)
{
t = 10;
resetCountdown = false;
}
Debug.Log(t);
yield return new WaitForSeconds(0.1f);
}
}

Enemies no longer are destroyed when you unpossess them. Instead they become dazed and then come back to attack you, unless you took a hit while inside them, in which case they just die

>>152402305
I only do art when I'm being a lazy cunt. probably 75% of the time is programming

Art/asset creation/levels is 90% of my time. Lots of programming in the first few months but almost no time is spent programming now b/c it's all encapsulated in high level objects.

>>152401707
the links to the multiplayer examples just link to the docs in my default browser and there's no download link. Maybe I need to try it in a different browser?

That's an ok idea, but in my own personal opinon I think the having the names on the side is kind of frustrating

In my head I want the player to see all the charcters that are supposed to be there on screen but I have no means to do it without it either being super confusing or placing hotkeys so small that the player won't ever be able to find the one they're looking for

My options keep going back to scrapping the large amount I have and just switching to a top down which I honestly think is gay

>>152405625
>efficient and eloquent

You didn't find the efficient eloquent way and now you're going to have 10x more edge cases

I'm writing a game about gangs and I need inspiration that's not GTA actually I just don't want to dev but I want ot feel productive. Is there any games I can play about gangs that are not GTA?

>>152404703
You might already know this, because your meshes are mostly quads which is perfect, but you have a couple of Ngons (Faces with more than 4 edges) and that is something you'll want to avoid like the plauge.

The blade in the first one has a face with 6 edges in the middle, use your knife tool and cut one an edge straight in the middle and that is resolved. The cylinder caps on the left sword's guard are also Ngons. Select the face Ctrl+F and select poke or triangulate face to fix that automatically. Blender lets and Ngon fill the cap of any cylinder primitive you create, but you can select a different fill mode in the creation menu, or just fix it yourself. Just something to keep in mind. Otherwise nice work.

>>152406207
that's good enough for me

Much better withtout makeup. Also, the face needs to be more round, even if you go for the longface elven look, it should be soft and round to a certain degree, otherwise it looks like a trans.

>>152406215

What exactly is the downsides to Ngons? I always assumed having less faces when possible

does it have to do with unwrapping?

They don't deform, shade, subdivide, unwrap, triangulate or represent anything other than flat surfaces properly.

Steer clear. Game engines will usually triangulate the mesh for you upon import, so it won't result in any kind of compability errors, but the process of triangulating a ngon is prone to weird topology, and will do much more harm than good.

>>152408641
https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/BlendShapes.html

I only have experience doing this in UE4, but it is completely possible to blend an item holding animation and a running animation.

>>152408778
Happy dogs always make me happy.

>>152408641
You can blend animations and play certain animations only on certain bones. (or both) So rather than having dozens of animations for every combination, you could play the moving with sword in left hand animation while simulatenously playing the moving animation and moving with shield in right hand animation. You could then apply a lean to the left or right additively and some head tracking.

Animation tech is pretty incredible and doesn't require you to do as much work as you think. Just read up on it and watch tutorials.

>>152408505

Personally I'd say you should make your characters a little taller. (I'm working on a semi-lewd pixelart game as well.) Regardless of that, you want to focus on conveying form at this resolution, rather than trying to fit in details and being accurate with your mental image of the design.

Thank you. I guess I'm just overwhelmed since I haven't gone through documentation yet. Glad I got rigging sorted though, although I have only done 1 of 2 characters.
While I I'm more than willing on tackling it myself I could also easily see myself just throwing someone money.

Newbie at sprites here, just curious or any pointers towards how to create sprites similar to games like va 11 hall, its so detailed and I always wonder how they created something like that, I imagine a lot of time and effort was put into the art but if anyone has any pointers or guides that would be neat if possible

>>152410068
Another thing: Use the same rig in your characters and learn how to transfer animations between them. I don't know how it works in Unity but in UE4 you can retarget animations to other skeletons.

It'll save you a LOT of time.

Pretty much all you need to know starting out are the key callback functions and modules. Just click on the ones you want to know more about.

Also they have a libraries section here:
https://love2d.org/wiki/Category:Libraries
That contains a lot of things you can use outright or for reference when setting up your game's systems. I'd most recommend the HUMP libraries

in particular the gamestate, timer and vector ones. Learning and implementing those early on will save a lot of headaches down the line.

I do, but that's not my point. I don't think my work is bad (in fact, I really like the things I write, which is why I write music at all), but work that is paid for is not necessarily "valuable" in any way other than the money that was explicitly paid for it.
