I was curious how the classic M&M style would look so I figured out how to do it real quick. It could maybe work. The problem is, it seems like it's purely just a style choice. All their sprites were generated from 3d models and animations rendered out to files, so the same amount of work has to be done regardless. And if you already have models with animations, you may as well just leave them 3d I guess? Billboards would help slightly since it always faces the camera, it would fix my dumb bug where the pathfinding makes them twitch all over the place when they get stuck on something.

>>153890713

Looks pretty great mate.

>>153913148
Bilboards don't really save you work, at some point I believe they even give you more work because you have to prerender every fucking frame of every fucking animation. For a realistic approach I would say they would be a bad idea, but for something more anime or retro looking they can look pretty nice.

yumm

I'm trying to make a fun, top-down stealth/action game. I have lots of programming knowledge and literally no ability to make art.

If I post a really great demo with fun gameplay using placeholder art, how difficult would it be to recruit an artist to work with me? I have a few people I can ping for music already, but when it comes to art I'm completely fucking lost,

>>153910017

Ok friends. Which menu looks less retarded. I'm currently voting the bottom, as is my music guy. Honestly they both look pretty retarded.

What would be the best engine for a game with 2D sprites on a 3D world, similar to Pokemon B/W/2 or Recettear?

>>153913961
have you thought about getting an artist

>>153914081
Not an option.

>>153913875
If you post a fun prototype, it isn't too difficult to find an artist. The issue is there are people who have literally nothing, won't even say what their project is because they don't want it to be 'stolen' and how it's 'the most revolutionary game ever'. Then get mad that no one wants to work for them.

>>153914012
Unity.

Gamemaker's 3D stuff is terrible (at least it was last time I checked, years ago)
UE4 is will just add unnecessary bloat

I can't believe I never realized it.

It's trying to mock gamedev.

Do games without art need memes, or do meme games just not need art?

>>153914108
I definitely won't be an idiot like that. I've done some stuff in the startup world—talking to investors there involves laying every part of your company out.

So, the best course of action is "make demo, get artists, get funding somehow", then?

As someone who never worked with tilemaps, is there a size limit? I heard that graphics card don't do too well with big enough tiles. What should I avoid when making tiles?

>>153915125
depends on how derivative your game is
if you're doing something new and interesting, it better be very thorough
otherwise there's no point - just write down the steps it takes to copy whatever you're copying and use it as a reference whenever you're stuck

>>153915212
If your tiles are as big as a screen resolution, they are too big.

My play area is 704 x 720
I planned to have tiles 180 x 180. Probably 6x6 so I can scroll vertically/horizontally comfortably.

So as long as I'm not doing massive like 1280x720 or 1920x1080 tiles it's fine?

I've been creating this model for some time, and I'd gladly like to hear what you think. To be honest, it's one of my "first" real creation using Blender.

I kinda put zero focus on the hands and feet so they do look like shit. The hair is the newest addition, a bit untouched as well.
She's just a random test character for a project.

>>153918460
Anatomy is all over the place -- did you use any references?

>>153918460
Ditch the cute girl approach for first time things and experimentation, it's detrimental.
I'd even say ditch anime as a basis for your work as a whole, and learn how anatomy works so you can stylize it with substance in the future instead of relaying on stylizations of some animator from another planet.

>>153918460
Arms are really weird, they look more like flapper than actual arms, Too short, too thin, and they get even thiner at the hands, totally the oposite of how arms work.
As ridiculous as this sounds don't use actual anime pictures for reference when modeling. Use MMD models instead,

>>153918524
Not really, no... I only used reference for the "outlines" so to speak.

>>153918553
Sound fair enough, I've always found joy in drawing monsters and such, I don't have to rely too much on "rules".

Thank you both.

>>153918946
>I only used reference for the "outlines"
That's usually fine, but even the silhouette looks very off
Anime often only looks good as flat images and can't be translated into 3D without looking very uncanny. You're better off using photos of a 3D person and adjusting the proportions as needed before slapping an anime head on it

>>153918946
>Sound fair enough, I've always found joy in drawing monsters and such, I don't have to rely too much on "rules".
Bad practice.
After you learn the basics of anatomy you can experiment with the "What if..." scenarios that make your own style really shine.

You can probably pay him to make music for you too, if you want.
(I can only afford to invest in a couple of songs for our first demo build now, but I hope to have him make the full soundtrack in the end)

I had a little chat with Michiru Yamane herself, too (since I was stupid enough to study moonrunes at university), and she (or, rather, her manager) demands 200.000JPY for each minute of music - and extra pay if we were to use her name in promotion.

That's so fucking cool, anon.

I think just having Rayman origins like long levels with more than one checkpoint is enough. Maybe have some special fruits which you have to gather before getting to the exit.

>>153920829
Ah, I actually meant the exit itself. I'm not planning to have any objectives, just reaching the exit and optionally collecting berries for points.

>>153920443
Looks cute. Can't wait to play it again

>>153920935
A cozy house then? A picnic blanket with some friends?

>>153920695
A bit of both.
I've always had some 'dream games' I just wasn't good enough to make, so all the games I've been making until now are just for learning, experience and fun. Though of course I'm still far from being good enough to work on my dream games yet, I want to try new ideas to expand my knowledge in different fields.

And also yeah, I've got a bit burnt out on this game, especially when working on the new beat maps and remaking all the animations. I can't imagine redoing all this stuff for other songs and other idols, though I had many ideas for it (this game originates from a waifu jam game idea I had abandoned). Maybe I'll go back to it in the future, who knows.

>>153921386
Yeah, I can totally relate to that. I think the ___fun____ is the most important part of this. Good luck on that.

Make a variable that checks debug mode on or off and then make a command, string input, or combination of keys only you know to set the debug mode variable on.
