Hey guys, I am an artist interested in experimenting with making a rpg battle scenario using pixel art. I assume any of the engines listed (for 2d) would work fine, but I was curious if any of them were easier than any other, having only a background as an illustrator, not as a programmer. I have no problems taking time to learn, but figured I'd ask just so I don't by chance pick the 'hard mode' choice on accident.

Thanks for the help ahead of time, and sorry for being a faggot.

If all you really want to do is make JRPGs, then maybe RPG Maker would be a better choice. You won't have us much freedom as with GM, but it has many already built in features for this specific genre which will let you have results the fastest.

So how do you learn Unity?
The documentation is really not helping.
Do I want to move my character using Vector.moveTowards? Do I want to use RigidBody and apply forces? Do I want to use Vector.lerp?

There's like 10 things to accomplish the same thing, how do I know which is the right way?

I love the in-universe interface. Nice work. The woman herself is a bit off though. I don't know what about her bothers me but something definitely does.

>>165924526
in update you can do whatever

with physics you should use the rigidbody's move functions or forces

>>165924381
>>165924538

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQnqqsVla1o

I hear this and I don't know why

>>165924526
If you want to move your character and don't care/want to use rigidbody's physics stuff. Use transform.translate.
If you want to use physics use a rigidbody with .addforce or .velocity in (In FixedUpdate).

Movetowards and lerp are only good if you want your target to move towards a predetermined target (e.g. if you were doing a point and click or something).

Anyone know of some good side-scrolling platformer shooters with mouse aim?

I'm trying to decide whether to make a twin stick shooter or a side scrolling platformer-shooter (with mouse aim). The super cool ideas-guy gimmicks I have in mind would work equally well with both styles of shooter, but a side-scroller would probably be a lot more manageable asset-wise for a 1MA non-artist.

Thing is, I can't really think of any good side scrolling shooters that use free aim and in fact all the best ones I can think of use the run'n'gun arcade stick controls like Metal slug; which is not the style of gameplay I want to go with.

Any ideas?

Thanks for the suggestions. I can't help but feel like side scrollers lack gameplay depth compared to twin sticks and free aiming doesn't seem like it adds that much, judging by those games. Guess I can just make a prototype and see what happens.

>>165927737
I think it's something like the part of your brain that governs sex is kind of intertwined with the part of the brain that corresponds to your feet, so some people end up with one mixed with the other?

I mean, like any fetish I'm sure there are any number of reasons people like it, but I think that's why foot fetishism is so common. Your brain can just accidentally equate feet with sex if you're genetically unlucky.

And here it is not working

>>165933559
I understand. I think part of the reason I do it is because I have such a hard time working on assets versus code. I can program like a motherfucker but if you ask me to do art all I churn out is simple pixelshit, not even anything high detail. If you ask me to do music that ain't fucking happening.

>tfw im a fucking codefag

hurts. wish I could just find someone who could into art. Music can be bought ezpz, ive asked around before and it would only be 600 from one guy who's got music I could really get into. Art on the other hand is like 700 bucks for a single sprite sheet. god damn its expensive.

>>165933851
nah man. I'm also a programmer, and don't even consider the possibility of making assets by myself. What I'm doing is working on a project where there are no required assets. I'm generating everything myself.

Work with your restrictions, my dude.

dont steal it then.

Game would use two mice to act as hands within the virtualized world. This could be used to simulate realistic surgery operations and could be used for training future medical staff. It could also be used to simulate realistically accurate first person shooters with reloading mechanics. The game will be like Americas Army 2.0 and will feature a full length multiplayer coop campaign, online pvp deathmatches, and will make its money back by having random "supply drops" only openable by using a cipher key purchasable on the web store.

is this ironic

I'm just a beginner at 3d animating and I've run into a stupid problem. How do are you supposed to do an animation that involves 2 separate characters? Like for example one character grabbing the other one and throwing him? Do you animate both objects in the same scene and export the animation as separate animations for each object involved? And then in the game engine you adjust the object positions so that the animation between them aligns?

Seriously, there's some kind of fucking valley between "get good at drawing" and "make sprites/models on the computer". Like, if I learn to draw, that's great, but how does that help me with sprite work? How does me knowing how to draw shadows on my art help when I make a 3D model? Or, fuck, even more basic than that: if I can draw well on a piece of paper, how the hell does that translate to creating graphics on a computer?

I did that thing without using a single class. Everything was condenced into a 1300 lines of regular functions and dynamic lists/dictionaries.

I now actually want to learn C# - but apparently in C# everything is a class. So, I figured that I might aswell learn to use classes in an environment that I feel comfortable in. And I could also prototype one of my ideas in the process.

So, what part of the code should handle drawing shit onto the screen.

Except everyone really can do art, just at different levels.

Yes because when they made Doom 1 it was original and there were lie 3 games to pick from at that time, doom, pong and space invaders, plus back then computers were trash so it wasn't hard to make AAA games even as OMA
but today the only day you can afford to make anything cliché is if you are AAA company

Nobody will play your game. Nobody will like your game. You will not be successful. Give up.
