Is anyone making a game where I can play as a cute boy (male)?

Is a cute boy (female) good? What about a Manly girl (female)

>>163278732
The elements are stored contiguously in memory. The caveats are:
1. Adding a new element may require a reallocation and O(n) copy
2. Insertion or removal not from the tail is O(n)
But in most cases traversal occurs far more often than either of those so it's best to optimize for that.

>>163278858
Why the fuck would you go for the most probably less efficient option by default if they're both just as easy to use?

I want to hang all the faggots who hear "premature optimization is evil" and interpret it as "write inefficient code".

>>163279134

Luck is the supreme stat. If you don't have it then everything you try to hit will miss and you are doomed.
Is there anything you can do without luck other than failing?

You try programming on luck as your main stat, I'll pick discipline and actually learn what I need to do, as well as actually do what I need to do. You keep typing away, maybe the entire works of Shakespeare will appear on your screen.

Starting off making a Visual Novel with my weeb roommates.
Standard dating sim stuff.

We just wanted to be doing something, but I want to make a top-down economy maintenance game that you can swap into first-person in for combat/fun.

You create/control 2 near-immortal characters (male & female) who are sent back in time with a little bit of tech (that you select) to terraform the planet in time for a coming inter-universal war.
Your characters have children who grow/age/die to expand your colony.

Also space dinosaurs.

To be fair, comments should be avoidable when possible. If you can get rid of a comment by e.g. using more descriptive names, do so. Comments are a source of duplication - you need to keep them updated to accurately reflect the related code.

Usually, descriptive names, types, and contracts (e.g. assertions) are enough.

>>163280752
Describe jittery?

>>163281029
Cool idea. Just a question, are the characters just silent ones meant for self-inserting or are they actual characters in the story?

>Also space dinosaurs

I'm too stupid to know why I'm deleting this particular array element 5 months later. I'm gonna double my line count with comments alone, you can't stop me.

>>163281270
The floating platforms appear to blink irregularly and the "too bad" screen doesn't seem to rise smoothly (it's got a little bounce at the top, too).

>>163281371
why is molyneux posted on this board?

i get that he's a dev that's made ridiculous claims, eg.
>"The center of the curiosity cube will literally be life changing," and it's just access to a different gamemode on Godus.

But that doesn't seem justifiable for him to be a meme/icon

>>163281253
>stupid people were quickly put down in the face of facts.

Fuck him, only modern idiots actually believe that farce.

Are you using a descriptive name for what it is you're deleting? Any magic numbers?

>>163281559
He has been making those claims for 20 years

C# noob here. I want to create two shots coming out simultanously, one on the left side, the other on the right side of player.

http://pastebin.com/67SPtg19

However this code isn't working. I can spawn the left shot, and also can edit Shot Spawn 2, Fire rate 2, in Unity, but the second shot doesn't appear.

>>163281684
That's not the issue. People always try to boil things down to the direct effect on the end product without thinking about the effects on development.

Comments can hurt maintainability and most of the time can be replaced by just writing better code, that's a fact.

>>163281358
Silent, but I want to find a way to bring out that feeling the original Jax and Daxter/Spyro had with a silent protag. They were just so likeable.
After pumping a million hours into Skyrim its pretty clear that not all silent protags are created equal.

There was something charming about the graphics. Spyro always felt so comfy.
Crash too.

>>163281536
The blinking is because they are timed platforms that poof away after being stepped on after 3 seconds, (with the blinking being the countdown). I'm still trying to figure-out if I need a new model or more indications for these I'm considering making them clocks.

The little bounce at the top of the gameover screen was to add character to it because feedback when it was smooth by alot of accounts of feedback said to add a bounce for character since smooth was boring and soulless.

>>163281559
he is the most high profile idea guy of our time

>>163281989
>>163282001
Then how do I write this?
I just want to copy the shot to spawn on the other side of the player.
It should be very simple, but I have no idea how this works here.

>>163281789
were you the anon who was complaining about c# being gay last night?

>>163281789
>I want to create two shots coming out simultanously

[code]
void Update ()
{
if (Input.GetButton("Fire1") && Time.time > nextFire)
{
nextFire = Time.time + fireRate;
Instantiate(shot, shotSpawn.position, shotSpawn.rotation);
Instantiate(shot2, shotSpawn2.position, shotSpawn2.rotation);
}
}

do this and see what happens

I assume either you've set the nextFire2 value to be incorrect, you haven't called Update2(), shotSpawn2.position is wrong, or you're forgetting to render something

Although i can't see the rest of your code so idk

>magic numbers
The only numbers in my code are 1 and 0. Anything else has a name. I plaster initialisation with comments so I can remind myself later about what that variable is supposed to do, in spite of it being very clearly named.
Still I put down comments wherever I can (although admittedly, some / many / most of my comments are "loop through array" tier).

>>163282143
Yes. I was. It's wayyyy more complicated than GML.

>>163282138

>>163281392
maybe something like plague inc? by subject i was implying for it to be more of a story around which you can build a more traditional game. but you can build a game around the principle, it is like a disease after all. a disease you can somewhat control as long as you're regarded as an authority figure in the bubble.

I simulated this world for 2 million iterations which is about 3 hours.
The erosion comes solely from the creatures running around, this is why the higher ground is pristine - no creatures can survive there for long.
There's also this nasty ringing artifact due to the fact that I only have a discrete number of height levels. I probably need to add a bit of randomness everywhere to prevent this kind of stuff from becoming apparent.

>>163282097
I understand the point of the blinking, it's just irregular (at least in the WebM).

The bounce is so small that it seems like an error rather than a deliberate effect. I would instead have it overshoot and spring back, or at least amplify the bounce and make it a little faster to compensate.

There's also that fast-moving enemy, the motion looks really choppy when it starts.

Comments can hurt maintainability

Maybe if you're doing something like

comments.add(new String("The below loops the update method"));

comments.add(new String("TODO: learn to comment properly"));

Reminder that you were warned of this 15 years ago

>>163282254
What about the removal code specifically, though? Or was that just a made-up example?

Also some those names could be improved. Most of those comments are redundant and only seem to be in place to make every field have a comment to fulfill some compulsion.
cast -> cast_finalized
power_inc -> power_incr
speed_inc -> speed_incr
word_go -> word_cast

>>163282349
Like I said, you have to keep comments updated to be accurate to the related code if you change that code. If comments are not 100% accurate all the time, they're doing more harm than good.

>>163282524

Try having the class like the code below. I can't tell what will break without seeing your whole code, so idk

Sorry if i'm making things worse c:

public GameObject shot;
public Transform shotSpawn;

public float fireRate;
private float nextFire;

public GameObject shot2;
public Transform shotSpawn2;
public float fireRate2;

private float nextFire2;

void Update ()
{
if (Input.GetButton("Fire1") && Time.time > nextFire)
{
nextFire = Time.time + fireRate;
Instantiate(shot, shotSpawn.position, shotSpawn.rotation);
Instantiate(shot2, shotSpawn2.position, shotSpawn2.rotation);
}
}

>>163281458
Those are the cases where comments make sense:
Why are you using this approach and not another one?
// This way that seems the obvious way causes problems in edge case X, so I changed this to do it this other way.

>>163282686
Which means it is possible to be a nodev and make a game. Cool, but is it possible to be a yesdev and never make a game?

>>163282801
>power_inc -> power_incr

"inc" as an abbreviation doesn't scream "increment" but "incr" does.

Personally I avoid abbreviations entirely.

>>163282668
Depends on the biome. Mostly wind, rain, waves and vegetation type, though erosion via glacier flow for example can also create unique landscapes - see Finland.

>>163283071

>>163282813
Here is the rest of my code.
http://pastebin.com/56LhDuNb

Like I said, I can define the components in the player for Shot Spawn 2 and Fire rate 2, but the shot doesn't appear, only the first shot (left).

Do I perhaps have to make another bullet for the right shot or something?

It does okay, theres usually only 1-2 people each demoday that seem to like it. Plus it got greenlit with not awful stats. My real goal is to make a more real-world hacking game after this, because #cyber is blowing the fuck up right now. Like imagine if, three months ago, there was a game where you could hack a parody of Hillary Clintons email server, or a scenario where you're a Chinese hacker who has to break into a stolen US drone before you run out of time and have to give it back. Or the thing with Ashley Madison, Anonymous, etc.. hacking is fertile ground for storytelling and mechanics, and there really aren't any standard bearers for the genre that resemble whats going on these days.

If you mean the gameplay sux thats different, I'm trying to make it kind of a hacking themed EU4-meets-FTL

Hey guys, need your help.

Pro tip for getting attention for your game, try and get people to translate your greenlight page, there is a whole community called Steam Translation Services made up of volunteers. The translators get excited about it and spread the word in their niche gaming language, and its nice to talk to talk to people from around the world /blog

It's good for gamejams and quickly prototyping small shit and testing out new ideas, or for complete newbies wanting to learn how to code. It's obviously not meant for serious, large scale projects (although kudos to you if you make something with actual substantial content).

Its just some grill from the Pixiv Fantasia project and the images always give me a ton of inspiration so I decided to use on as placeholder for an MC portrait.

In Metroid, you can reveal special blocks with bombs. What could be a way to do this in a regular platformer without weapons?

>>163286762
Torches or maybe even Glowsticks? Could still have an ammo count like the bombs if they were glowsticks.

good job, after this, try to make it more fun and add JUICE

I am implementing mouse dragging, and there's a delay to differentiate against a normal click - should I store the item position when the mouse is first clicked or after the delay?

just have the blocks jiggle or flash a little when you punch them

>>163287179
I don't want punching, either.

>>163287150
Because Unity is the only way to make a game?

>>163287326

Have your character notice the blocks, like have them look at the block curiously, go "hmmm" or have a ? mark pop overhead before the block changes into a different type to signify they're different

>>163286950
I'd recommend doing the braid procedurally

not only it's hard to give it proper weight but if you want to give it followthrough you end up with a considerably longer animation and then you have to do transition stuff

https://farfarer.com/blog/2011/07/07/unity-skeletal-ragdoll-jiggle-bones-tutorial/ is a good start but instead of messing with import settings I just used LateUpdate to overwrite the bone transform

>>163286256
Doesn't matter.
The best thing about SMT aren't the negotiations, but the demon fusions. Demon fusion is a far better mechanic than the breeding shit Pokemon has.

>>163287695
To be fair it's not about the braid/tail being procedural specifically but about it being separate. I assume Unity lets you have multiple animations acting on different parts of a skeleton at once?

>>163287695
Thanks, that's very useful.

Thanks.

>>163287852
yeah you have to use masks, dino girl has separate arm animations for carrying stuff. I guess you could have a constant looping animation of the braid moving around and then scale its weight with the character's y velocity or something, but it sounds like a headache for less than ideal results

Can we ask for help/advice in this thread?

Just started learning game maker, trying to figure out the best way to add casting time to my spells. The only way I can think of is to change all my spells to alarms.

Is there a better way to do this? I feel like changing all my spells to alarms is not very efficient and I have all my spells in different scripts for different classes so changing everything to alarms would be a pain for one and two - I am limited in how many alarms I can use.

As someone peeking into this general every now and then, why the fuck is it so prone to shitposting?

>>163286726
Thats the idea, it'd be like KUMA/War where you can play current events. Especially in the next year when the Syrian civil war ends and all the Jihadists return home there will be a huge push by governments towards new surveillance technologies and computer intrusion so I think its the perfect time to just like make a game about it. The only problem is after a terrorist attack for example, how to fill in gaps to make a story out of it... by the time all the facts are known, it will be cold and stale. So a lot of the details will have to be made up, and they'll be proven wrong.

>>163286892
What kind of juice would you suggest?

>>163288132
>I guess you could have a constant looping animation of the braid moving around and then scale its weight with the character's y velocity or something
I was thinking more like playing an animation at the peak of a jump or at other choice moments.

This all started with gamedev, actually. There was a shitposter from /o/ making something in Source and a mental case from /x/ making something in Unity. They didn't get along, at all. It's simply never stopped since.

Whether it's the same posters, one of them pretending to be the other and shitposting at himself, dedicated copycats, etc. is up in the air.

>>163282290
I wonder if all we are is a procgen experiment by "god"

>>163288287
yeah that would work, though I wouldn't personally do it

>>163288147
I've always hated that GM limits the amount of alarms. Maybe there's a smart reason for that, but I kinda doubt it.

You are aware that you can create a variable and have it decrement every frame, right? It's not functionally identical to an alarm because of some engine level stuff, but it's practically the same and probably virtually the same in your case.

Oh wow, you remember.
The scope for that one was too large so I decided to put it on the backburner and have this one done first (much smaller scope).
I'm still modeling tons of crap every day so I'll have plenty of assets for it soon.
It will be completed at some point because I still like the concept and the tons of stuff that can be added to it, but it's going to take a while to get it properly done.

How do I into game design? I'd say I'm a pretty uncreative person. I worked on learning how to program a game and do the art assets for it but most of my game "ideas" are copies of old games, but smaller in scope (still end up being pretty large) and maybe on mobile.

I've had cases where it captures the inspector window sometimes, but usually it captures the game window just fine. It captures the tabs too, so I usually crop it.

I assume fraps works on other stuff on your computer right? Also some players have troubles playing the uncompressed AVI files, have you tried other media players. The thumbnail thing sounds weird

Does it work if you drag the game tab out into a floating window?

In the end, I just like games with non-human protags. Its easiest to see it as a more extreme form of escapism. I do think animals and animalistic features are aesthetic though yea.

Not that dude, i just think you'll get a lot of flack for being in the uncanny valley of animal to human; like that same generic black cat thing with stubbier proportions and better animation and nobody would think anything bad about it, but with the current look and the super stiff animation it just looks creepy to me.

>>163295203
Lol. So fucking predictable. Just as we said in >>163294859 and then you did it anyway. So stupid. It's like we own you. :^)

Let's say I want to take a crack at VR.
Would Unity or Unreal be better for my first small project?

Alright here is my first little progress. I started over several times trying to find a good way to handle what I'm trying to do, but I think I now found an internal structure that is extensible and easy to work with. So I already have most of the code to check for chains and do other kinds of movements like diagonally, I just need to bring it over. I had to spend some time figuring out the correct approach in Godot since there are several options to do most things and I am used to ECS or just plain programming

>>163295783
I can't speak for VR specifically, but I very much prefer UE4 in general.

I think it's because it looks more like a guy in a fursuit than an anthro creature

This.

Compare with a definitively anthro character.

>>163295580
Not him, but going along with your idea, I think you have to go with cartoonish proportions and aesthetic for anthropomorphism to work. Otherwise it's dismissed as furry material and/or creepy.

I think it's just creepy because it's stiff, which makes it really do look like a guy in a fursuit (or even a mascot suit)

I think it's just that the proportions are generally wonky. His limbs are a bit thick and way too long, and the tail is too short to be conceivably useful (or just look normal compared to other animals that have tails that people know of). It also fell into the common trap of having TWO KNEES instead of a knee and an ankle (and the limb segments involved being shortened appropriately). The arms are really long too, just remember that a "fingertip-length" skirt lets people see your pussy. hands shouldn't go down to your knees in a standing position.

Look, fake danny, there's no need for impersonation when ther real danny is already schizo, so scram!

Which is the best particle designer for Unity?
Or is it better to just write them from scratch?

>>163296402
Seems a little generic, no? I'm really just doing it for fun to have something to do and get back into gamedev and check out Godot. But actually last time I posted it a couple years some people were also saying that it might be successful on mobile. However that market is flooded. But I will check out Godot's mobile export too and see how that works out

Thanks to near constant haranguing about using Python as a language, I've managed to finally break my mental block and figure out Unity. Two days of progress converting it so far.

thanks for the feedback. I am definitely not a good artist or animator, so this is basically programmer art at its best. Realistic anthro probably might not be the best goal.

puppers needs some work for sure on all fronts. I'll keep working on (her). The digitigrade legs really fell through with some of the animations, and I think unity's built in humanoid rigging system drops the shoulders a bunch, because her arms are way too long. I'll look into that.

I thought it was an island height map at first.

>>163297381
As far as animations go, give a little more life to the face and get rid of that silly knee bobbing.

>>163297381
did you model that? it's not progrrammer art

Is there a formula like lerp but for 3 points?

I want to implement code so that certain objects slightly 'attract' the camera, like bullets, so it is easier for the player to see them and they more easily avoid bullets from offscreen

google "bezier curves"

Don't listen to them. They are Full Sail Shitposters who are trying to dissuade devs from making games.

>>163297381

Yo, don't be so hard on yourself. This is great so far.
