Dumb question, is there a shader that only renders the intersected area of an object in unity?
I've looked everywhere and I only find stencil shaders but those render all the time the object overlaps another, and not only when the object is intersecting.
Pic related is a rough drawing of what I mean. I want to render only the area of the sphere that touches the plane (the red area), is that even possible?

If it's a sphere, you can do this quite easily by using the shader of the other object and checking if the position of the pixel is inside the sphere (distance to sphere centre < radius, for efficiency, delta_x^2 + delta_y^2 < radius^2).

>is there a shader
Not yet, but you could always make one.
Don't render the object that intersects. Render the intersection on the other object. Render the plane, not the sphere, and then modify the plane's shader based on the sphere.

>>166117490
I know a way to do this for THIS SPECIFIC CASE, with a sphere and a plane. In general this seems hard because you are essentially checking collisions.

The steps:
1. The shader will go on the plane.
2. In the C# code, pass in a float3 center and a float radius into the shader, updated every frame.
3. In the fragment shader, you need to calculate worldspace. This is easy to google.
4. Check whether the calculated worldspace of pixel is less than radius from the passed in center of the sphere.
5. If within the radius, render red. Otherwise, render white.

>>166119156
In general I believe it's possible to adapt stencil shadow rendering to accomplish this. They work the same way - you extrude the shadow casters into shadow volumes, which then don't apply the light wherever they intersect with lit objects.

Idea: arena shooter where you cast spells by typing their names and can counter incoming spells by typing the counter spell.

>>166122502
>it's not my fault that the bouncer slapped me after I kept calling him retard

>>166122380
Probably a day or two depending on how fast you work. The original game was actually created by fucking idiots who didn't know how to into deltas.

The length of your invaders list will be inversely correlated to the speed at which they fly if you're trying to emulate the original. The reduced resource stress by having less invaders on the screen made them move faster accidentally.

Yikes, that's a lot of time spent on the ocean. That much detail makes it look more like a forest -- I'd make the waves both more pronounced and less constant.

Also having trouble with the perspective here. The things on the beach perplexingly look about the same size as the tower in the back - and because the stuff on the horizon isn't smaller it feels 'just as close' which has this strange effect of making it feel like the lighthouse is just 'above' the bottom-part-beach rather than 'far away'.

This again. Anon: Nobody will be interested to work with you until they know what you can do.

Nobody. Let's just get that out of the way. Nobody's going to show you their project and blah blah blah just to find out you can draw dA-tier sonic art.

Post art, receive offers. Or don't post art and don't receive offers. The ball is in your court.

Undertale had good art.

So, I have a game in mind. I know exactly how I want it to look like, and have a general idea how it should play.

I'm trying to get into UE4 blueprints, to try to make the game... But this tutorial feels like too much.

Since I know what I want my game to look like. Would it be a good idea that I simply start learning 3d modeling and animation, to create the characters and assets for the game, to then simply find a programmer to do the programming?
If I do end up with something good looking, what are my chances of finding a programmer, who would work for free (take share of profits)?

>>166127387
Bullshit. Terraria art is above average and if you think you can do it then let's see it.

>>166127560

no really, terraria has poor art.

>>166127620
Good for them. I hope their games have art worthy of that sentiment.

>>166127591
It's not the game's selling point though, it didn't make the game, it was the gameplay.

>>166127586
I'd do it if your art and idea is good, so yeah, if you could make a solid chunk of art I think your chances would be good.

Hello agdg, i am making a visual novel, i almost have the engine finished(using game maker)

nothing interests me lately

in many ways, life's never been better, but I can't seem to get in the zone doing stuff. I dispassionately consume books and simple Skinner-box vidya games like FTL, I keep up with my obligations and chores, but can't really get excited about anything

I miss being excited about creating stuff. I miss being a moderate yesdev

what do

>>166127694
What does that even mean? Their opinions do not need be backed by art.

W-why would the "I showered today" have to be an achievement square on the bingo card?

>>166127895
I don't know, because I'm there too. At least you still play games, I don't even do that anymore.

Get in here >>>/g/58553529 let's figure this out

>>166127917
You do realize where you are right?

>>166127917
It'd be a better achievement if it was 'I shower routinely'. Showering every day is bad for your skin and hair, especially if you're using soaps. Every two to three days is a good rate though - everybody's skin is different and produces oil and sweat at different rates.

>>166126581
>coder bros giving out free code advice or more in agdg
art bros give out free advice as well. It's not their fault if you don't like their advice.

You mean worse? Getting into politics now is like joining the army right at the beginning of a huge bloodshed of a war.

>>166128245
I'm gonna give you my idea because I know I'll never use it.
Potion maker roguelike. You take care of a potion shop.
Potions are mostly plants, but there are some other ingredients. Gameplay is half taking care of your plants a la harvest moon, half exploring to find other ingredients.
can elaborate if you're interested

>>166128430
It's extremely rare that any programmers here post open source projects for anyone to use. I can't even think of any.

>>166127414
are you planning on changing the artwork later, I don't know if its just a thing for me but I absolutely loathe that free sprite pack, other than that, its looking like its taking form, some particles to give more contrast to some skills might be nice though

>>166128016
study something

i do number theory, it's really easy to get in to. basically the goal is to produce an equation which is prime for a large range of natural numbers, here's an example

n^2 + n + 41

it's prime any integer n 0<= n <40, can you come with something better? the ultimate goal is an equation which is prime for every integer.

>>166128516
Ooh, I do like that idea. The shop would be a bit like Recettear?

>>166128490
yeah, better
because there's shit actually going on and something to debate, things to protest and so on

FTL ain't skinner box. You aren't guaranteed a victory just by an investment of time. A fundamental part of a skinner box is 'press button always receive reward'.

>>166128848
>(especially if you're making them)
fixed

>>166128665
The shop is mostly a hub where you get stuff like "brave warrior wants health potion, limit 3 days", "sneaky jew wants midas potion, limit 5 days", so you can choose to take care of whatever seems more important or easier for you. You'd use the money from the shop to buy new scrolls/recipes. Exploring an area uses one day, and plants grow overnight.

AC is sort of defined by its not-smallness
but the most AC-like things to me are
>24-hour clock
>villagers

and then on top of that you add the minigames/customization stuff

>>166129617
customization is an utmost. make four or five sets of furniture and a way to place them as you like

>>166129617
Limit the space you tend to and you make the game smaller. Rather than managing a farm, you're managing a patio garden in an apartment complex, say.

tfw u shitpost so hard it memes the thread for DAYS

>>166130308
Also Templars, white hoods and hidden blades

>>166128867
Eh. Yes and no.

All the games I enjoy for prolonged periods of time, no matter how different they seem on the surface, have a similar Skinner box-like quality to them. Some random/unexpected rewards, no rush (turn-based/pause option), a strong sense of agency through micromanagement and building up over time. FTL, Civ 5, Dwarf Fortress, CCGs.

I can't commit to stuff that actually challenges me. Mechanically intensive things like Dark Souls, tight platformers, shooters. These are the things that are scientifically proven to enhance cognition - and I barely play them, because I'm a lazy fuck, at the very least stuck deep in my comfort zone, if not a skinner box.

>>166130218
You're welcome, anon. If you'd like further advice: You could also turn it into a community garden that all the residents have access to so you're not just managing your own plots.

Should I grow a beard and dye my hair red or green senpaitachi

>>166131156

A) Post your art

B) This is more complicated, because if you want to be the "director" it means you need to be ponying up the cash for the guy to make the thing. Its the same things with a programmer looking for an artist. Whoever wants to be in charge needs to compensate the other if they want to have full creative control.

C) Might want to start by posting what you want, you can be vague like "A grid based strategy game similar to advance wars" so people can gauge interest in the project.
