And the other one has no engines list.

Is it ok to dev a remake? It's pretty fun and I can actually focus on bettering my deving skills instead of spending time on background stuff. Also, I want to try to emulate the good parts of the gameplay of a 2d game in the 3d medium.

What would you add/change about Cave Story besides it being 3d now? I think I'll add some new weapons so it doesn't get too boring.

What could I do to improve my version of the First Cave?

>>164312342
>Is it ok to dev a remake?
No, don't waste your time and risk getting shut down by a C&D.

Make an original game with original characters, you can copy the gameplay if you want but make it your own things.

>>164312342
you can make a remake if you want
but why cave story? it's kind of just like any other generic pixel platformer

>>164311815
Because fucking up the OP is the new cool meme.

>>164312830
it's amazing how mad certain people get about it

>>164312869
the OP is among the last vestiges of content holding this place together, so...

The game of the thing you just made is completely different from CS, because you made it 3d. If pixel had been making a 3d game, do you think he would have made his weapons the same? His boss fights? This is a whole new system and set of constraints.

If you can thread the needle of good gameplay and and homage to CS, more power to you. But you have embarked on a real game design problem, and the optimal solutions won't be found by copying CS.

>>164312869
Those lists are basically pointless since anyone who think s he wants to start game dev still writes stupid shit like "I don't know how to program and draw and I want to make Witcher 4, how fucked am I?"

i need a colorset of 13 colors such that when combining any 2 colors of that set, you'd consider that combination to be pleasant. also, all colors need to be sufficiently distinguishable.

>>164312869

Basically troops that belong to you, and you control, but are directly connected to your country. So you could attack another country, or help someone out, without political repercussions.

got the beam sword in

i made a quick anim for it in like 10 mins so it isn't very juicy and feels pretty boring right now

- shortest range but highest damage in game
-automatically destroys any small bullet that it comes into contact with
-blocked projectiles increase charge
-Increased charge powers up sword from 3 lvls
- beam knife
- beam sword
- oversized beam sword


auto block seems a bit too OP and chasing down enemies can be difficult so changing things up so it goes beam sword, oversized beam sword, obviously overcompensating beam sword so hitting things further out is easier

any suggestions welcome, trying to look for ways other people do melee weapons in SHMUPs for inspiration

>>164317572
If you want fan art for your game then you do it yourself.
Stop being so dependent on others, anon. The only appreciation you need is your own.

How are eyes done usually in 3D games? are they static, or animated? Does it have to be procedurally animated so that they're looking at something?

>>164318817
UV fuckery for the eyes for low poly.
Separate eyeballs and eyelid movement for high poly models.

Turnbased gameboy roguelike anyone?

Working inventory, items have 32 different values for storing damage type, stat bonuses, use speed, use effect, equip type, etc.

Atm it is turn based, but I may put the whole world on a sort of "real time turn based" thing. Basically, you can walk around like in diablo, all 8 directions, and enemies only make actions when you make an action (as in, you take one step, they take one step.) But that only happens when you are engaged in combat, so if an enemy hasnt seen you yet you can still sneak up behind them in real time before combat starts and get sneak attacks etc

>>164321835
Think of all the things that might be hidden in dark woods.

>>164319261
Hmm yeah that's true. I'll be making a third person game so I suppose it won't matter much then. Cool cool

So how do I really learn?

I'm watching tutorials on YouTube and what not.. but it just feels like I'm copying what the person is showing me. How am I supposed to be doing this?

>>164321835
What perspective? 2D or 3D? Iso or side view.

One good way of doing this is have "set pieces" either hand made or generated, but basically you want to have tiny thing in your world that tell a story.

A House that has a bathroom, with tub that has a skeleton and a toaster in it.

A campfire that's still going that has blood streaks leading away.

A hanged man on a tree

A teddy bear leaning on a tree with some flowers planted around

A bunch of empty bottles of alcohol in the midddle of a bridge

>>164321981
Make it like that pokemon game where you played as the pokemon and we have a deal

>>164322070
Figure out something you want to do that there isn't a tutorial for, and do it. If you wanna start small you could take on of those tutorials and add on new features onto whatever it is. For example: Make pong then add a speed boost button for the player(s).

>>164322140
>A bunch of empty bottles of alcohol in the midddle of a bridge
oh man that's edgy

>>164321835
Just add some clutter, like abandoned campfires, trekking signs/paint over trees and stuff like that.

You could maybe make the pointers look like they're painted with blood if you're going for a horror style scenery.

>>164322070
Like that, then, once you have seen a lot of tutorials you put that knowledge intro practice by making your own game and keep challenging yourself and learning

>>164322265
That's probably the route I will go. My only hurdle is I totally half assed the enemy AI and I need to teach them how to properly pathfind

>>164322296
As edgy as it is, it's in the same vein as everything else I posted. I assumed he meant "dark" (as in grimdark) woods. Not just woods with lots of cover, so it'd be difficult to find something that wasn't edgy.

>>164322414
Cool I'm looking forward to it, I always liked that gameplay, going from seemingly real time to turn based once in combat seemlessly.

>>164322586
One game that does it in a similar way (Although it is a bit clunky) is Fallout 1 and 2. They do a pretty good job of letting you move around the world, and then switch you into turn based mode during combat. The only drawback is they made it difficult to tell how many spaces/cells you had between you and an enemy, which made the tactical part feel a little rough

A few questions.

I have a tiny bit of programming experience, basically just a basic understanding of how it works, which I've been able to apply to C#/C++/Pascal/visual basic.

Anyway, so I kind of want to make the best game ever, probably a phone game (or a computer "phone game").

So the questions
>What language and free engine should I use to make something like pic-related
>How long would it take to make it?
I really would want to make you have a party of up to 5 people, that you control all the character, and they have to be a certain distance away from each other. Then you'd have some spells that your characters can cast.
Then I'd want to apply an "instanced MMO" setting upon it (PvP, and instanced dungeons).

It's a metroidvania so i'm gonna need a lot of levels, and having them all on the same level is boring, jumping on trees sounds stupid too, the only reasonable thing i can think of is an underground something and i can pull off quite a few levels with that but plain woods is just hard.
Anyone got any more ideas? i can only keep adding campfires for so long.

>>164323216
C# + Unity3D is good for 2.5D games and it has decent networking capabilities out of the box.

Starting off with your dream project is not a good idea though and you propably don't realize how huge the scope for that type of game is.

So... I'm supposed to write it in C# XNA?
Then take that code and put it through whatever MonoGame is?

How long would it take to learn enough to make such a game?
The characters would just be circles, with some 2 graphics... That interacts with other circles.

It's a fucking language. A programming language. It's the same kind of thing as C++ and C# and Java and nobody here fucking knows that because nobody here has ever even followed the links in the OP.

A couple months ago someone finally changed it to point to the HaxeFlixel website instead of the Haxe homepage. Now, HaxeFlixel is at least something resembling an engine, though it's actually a lower-level framework like XNA/MonoGame rather than an environment with a built-in editor like Unity or UE4. This is a step up, but it's also still stupid because Haxe and HaxeFlixel are not the same thing. There are other frameworks made in Haxe, like Kha.

Of course it doesn't fucking matter because nobody uses the OP. Everyone just comes here to shitpost. You should all be ashamed of yourselves.

I'm not a writer but my characters need some dialogue and bantz and shit. What I've taken to doing is saving big shitstorm threads whenever I find them and I plan on just doing some light editing (taking out memes, making them realistic in-universe, etc) to them so my characters sound like they are informed and intelligent on topics I'm not. Browsing stuff like /ck/, /k/, /g/, etc.

Am I violating copyright by doing that?

A thief type of game where you target a single house and the goal is to steal every single object in the house without the owner noticing you. All of them. Every single piece of furniture that isn't nailed down. As the house slowly empties, you have to convince the owner he's not being robbed, but rather he's going insane and those objects were never there to begin with.
Then when they're a shivering wreck hiding in their closet, you walk in on them and tell them to stop squatting in your house or you'll call the police as you're moving back in, triggering them to run away screaming.

Sandbox game, adventure/puzzle hybrid. Small world (a town, but with a variety of settings, like docks, airports, etc.)
Instead of guns, you just jave your hands to move things... and an arduino-like universal remote.
The world is filled with things you can interact with. Need to reach the top of a factory roof? Zap some infrared to a mobile crane in order to make it align with the roof, stack some crates, get on top of it and walk on the crane to the roof.

Hey engine devs how do you do your game map. I'm currently using TILED maps, and while a decent art fag, I need something a lot more dynamic. For 2d/ top down, with fake elevations(I think making the sprites larger/smaller based on height)
Will need to be large as well, as it will have driving.

>>164318729
speaking of monolith, you should try playing their demo to steal some ideas from.

they have a sword weapon too that is functionally similar, it blocks bullets but it swings pretty slow

>>164327309
Most of the levels iv posted have been the first 2 worlds of the game Easter and forest and a bit of desert. Too early in the game out of 8 worlds to go nuts with multi-layer heights.

Though there is alot levels already like that I guess its easier to see once you play it compared to if you miss some of my progress posts.

Hes admitted many times on discord its his first game, he just copy pasts code from google, and doesn't know many things about art and is just going along according to feedback he gets. I mean Christ yesterday he posted his first shader.

I'm not knocking him but his autism for never giving up even with the hate and shitposts for the sake of finishing a game is just like make game.

>>164331520
amazon

>>164331464
exactly. power to him, he's the very incarnation of "just like make game"

>>164331725

Not necessary to be an artist.

>>164331725
>gogem shitposting again

How do you create enemies that aren't just easy to avoid but aren't annoying bullet sponges, either?

It seems like in so many games, tough enemies are just annoying. In other games, there's no incentive to actually engage enemies.

>>164332124
AND?

>>164332157
Give them better AI and more attacks.
Arcade games like that usually just have enemies with a single attack pattern and the challenge comes from many of them on screen rather than an enemy on its own being tough.

>>164321706
I wanna see this face in context. Sauce plz

>>164332157
hard to kill/potentially dangerous + pairing.
Serious Sam does a pretty good job at this,
Kleers are simple to dodge,kill, but they can fuck you up. Pair them with just about anything else and they become a headache of fun!.

>>164331885
What do you mean? Axe guys or the Beowulf spin attack?
I DO love just about every Capcom game

>>164332565
even though it's just screenshake, the not-hitstun.

(from experience with Cryengine)
>unstable editor & prone to corruption of files
>bad workflow due to being unable to import standard file types
>not allowed to use any of their stock assets

The editor was nice to use when I was still on Unity, but now that UE4 is around, I'd never either again.
If you want the ease of use & community, use Unity. If you want the powerful, better engine, use UE4.
As far as I can see there's no reason to use Lumberyard, hence no one uses it.

they're a merciless corporation who's entirety of major successes involve destroying competition. they do this by being friendly and courting losses early on to develop a monopoly. if amazon comes to you with an open hand you can bet they have a plan to strangle you with it.

i can easily assume using lumberyard will lock you into using their services.

Soup nerds, retarddev here. Finished pretty much everything with the game, except for the sound. Should I steal like full-on soundtracks or look for 8-bit remixes?

>>164333198
Play the kazoo

How do I WAIT until a animation has completely finished to do something in blueprints on UE4?

>>164328602
I get I triggered you, but read the rest

Not surprised you're in your predicament having played the game now, turn down the screenshake, it makes it impossible to know you're getting attacked if you push x more than once, let alone even think about positioning properly or blocking. Limit it to a little bit upon landing a heavy attack or when a heavy opponent lands after a knockup rather than on literally every attack. The jumping feels a little janky as well but that could be because I'm playing on a keyboard and might be much better with a controller, but it might be an idea to limit the amount of lame platforming we've all seen before, particularly if your character isn't going to have much weight behind their movement.
Consider designing stronger and more damaging enemies which require more deliberate thinking, the combat system is quite meaty and robust and imo it would be more fun to play around enemies that feel more Bayonetta/DMC, with well telegraphed attacks and more punishing damage outputs than a large crowd with fast attacks.
The combat is very juicy though, which is something a lot of people here don't get right so you've got a good base going.

>>164332801
That's what all the monopolies do. Nothing new with Amazon.
