Walked around some in the hidden easter egg area for a bit and uploaded to youtube. Enjoy the 15 minutes worth of effort in level design.

Meanwhile, still hooking stuff up for Metanoia's Act 1. This is taking a lot longer than I thought to get the bridge up - the words are just coming slowly to me. Might just put stuff in brackets to fill in later in my polish pass.

How do you find good names for your characters? Where do you look for inspiration?

>OP image
I remember God's Gift getting good buzz on /v/ a while back and stuff but lately I haven't heard anything?

>>168649158
That's because the game is ded.

>>168648632
>tfw rememeber when that pic was originally posted
>so many deds now

>>168649093
Probably because the general is full of idiots and shitposters now.
If you take a look at the last year recap we lost a good number of dev due to the constant shitposting. They just stay in their tumblr for good reasons.

>>168649207
You mean on hiatus right?
There's too much art and assets in that game to let go of.

>>168649050
Yes. Gamemaker is a serious engine for gamedevs who are serious about making games. Paying full price for it is well worth it when you consider it has a history of creating million dollar games.

I wonder if this is still hanging on that dev's wall... or if they threw it away, along with their game.

>>168649110
>How do you find good names for your characters?
they just come eventually.
when in doubt anagram a vague word

>>168649347
Don't say this kind of thing out loud. It gives the shitposter strength.

>>168649365
The dev occasionally posts a new sprite here every now and then. He's still on it, even though I don't remember he said anything about the reason behind the slow progression.

>>168649110
Just make your game more anime.

Then you can have all your characters have japanese names, and those sound good no matter what, so just pick 2 at random.

>>168648909
>An anon shared some Sega Genesis and Mega Drive sounds
Is it just the drum samples or is there another one in there?

>>168649450
I posted that pic a month or so ago and they replied. They were getting ready to move at the time. So I don't know what they've done with it now, if they hung it back up in their new place or not.

>>168649450
>looking at Charlotte

I still think that the waifu level of Charlotte grew too big for the dev to handle. It's kind of funny when you think about it.

>>168649050
There doesn't seem to be all that much to gain aside from a fancier UI. Not production ready.

>>168649365
Every dead game is on "hiatus". Every dev is just "taking a break" or "planning what to do next". First it's for just a few days. Then weeks. Then months.

Most stop visiting /agdg/ because it reminds them of their game and how they abandoned it. Some stay and shitpost as a coping mechanism (nodevs).

But don't worry. I'm sure one day they'll get back to working on their game. Just not today, because <excuse>.

This is probably a dumb question but does physical size affect rendering? Say you have an arena that's 100x100, if you shrank it to 50x50 would it render faster? Or does only the texture have an effect

>>168649740

Its still a little rough, but movement and shooting are more or less working. Can move, shoot and roll in 8 directions. When shooting, your aim is locked to that direction, but your movement/rolls still function as normal.

Its starting to dawn on me that this would require a fuckton of spritework.

I made a game for Betajam 2 (was torn between school and this for the last week so I never really posted progress) but I'd love for some people to check it out. I only have the trial version so you'll need GMS2 in some capacity to play it but I'd love feedback

Also not sure if the files I uploaded even work so that would be great to find out

There's plenty of promising devs still in the thread. I can count almost a dozen off of the top of my head.

I stopped posting progress because the shitposting is literally insane.

I'm just trying to make everything as smooth as possible. I remember seeing someone talk about a game with a shrunken protagonist, where everything was mini instead of life-sized (the player didn't know this, only people that looked at the game's files), and I was wondering if that was to help performance.

Okay, here is the thing.

I'm the Google Drive guy, and because of that, I actually read every single thread, or at least scroll trough them. So here's my observations:

Wizard kid: alive, occasionally posting here, but mostly on tumblr
Placeholder guy: well and alive, not a placeholder anymore
The first knight: posted some after the demo then vanished to my knowledge
The second knight: never heard of him again
Bokube: alive and well, plans his kickstarter
Dog with the flashlight: the dev occasionally posts on his tumblr, he's busy with school and stuff
Girl in purple: rarely posts here and on tumblr, but still on it
God's Gift: >>168649581
Guy in suit: never saw him again
Knight: never saw him again
Unnamed platformer girl: the dev is busy with life, but still on it
Cube chan: still in development, the dev comes here every once in a while to tell stories about conventions he visited
Wizard girl: never heard from her again
Blue haired girl: there were some posts about her a few weeks ago
Big thing with a heart: was active on tumblr after the demo, but is very silent for some months now
Vampire dev: still working on Vampire game, now also works on a Comfy Jam game
Charlotte: last was worked on around Nov-Dec, then the dev went on a side project, but life got in the way. He's silent for almost a month now
Frog's life: the dev said he dropped the project
Clarent: still in development
Girl with green hair: the dev is still alive, but mostly posts art on his tumblr, doesn't plan to work on it in the near future
Baseballhat kid and Sailormoon girl: never heard of them after the demo
The green ball: as I remember it's a small game by Vine?
Jelly: never heard of them after the demo, but as I recall the guy visits /agdg/ on Summers
Flexing girl: failed kickstarter, blamed on /agdg/, never returned
Torpedo: on GreenLight, got finished, you can find it on itch, the dev is on his next project
Bunny: the dev considers it finished, but he has dan a shit lot since

I guess they both might've died, but is it really such a burden to take 15 seconds of your day to respond to someone with a "No sorry something came up"? Especially when you tell them to message you?

Working on a more traditionally paced easier first level instead of going balls to the wall 4 seconds in to the game. Also some sound effect stuff, but that's hard to convey.

>>168650496
Gameplay was pretty simple, what caughts people's attention was Charlotte herself to be honest

>>168651316
>Implying she's canon stacked

I really can't decide between a platformer and a top-down game.

- Platformer means a good range of moves making usually combat fun, but exploration is standard
- Top-down means less moves or a typical activate-skill-1-to-9 combat which usually ends up a bit repetitive, but the exploration part makes up for it

Its amazing how flakey people can be once they realize you're serious

How do I get sfml to work with code blocks? it feels like every tutorial on the internet is lying! they make it sound like all you gotta do is link the include and lib folders and then write the linkers but I do it exactly like them but then it says there's no reference to the functions!

That framed print is in one of these boxes, wrapped in like 40 towels.

Just got to Michigan a couple weeks ago, and we're living in a tiny apartment in Kalamazoo until we find a house.

I have, sadly, shelved Dungeon Break for the time being, but I do intend to get back to it someday. There's too many assets and too many hours put into that to just leave it be.

I've been working on the Silent Hill-esque 2D game lately, while job hunting.

>>168652370
I don't record drama, sorry.

Basically:
Asked the OP to include a link to the campaign.
OPs refused.
The KickStarter failed.
The dev called on the OPs, but asked in general why don't we include running KickStarters, GreenLights in there.
/agdg/ responded in the usual /agdg/ way.
Never seen them since.

Speaking of which, I have progress on that game.

Redid the damage effect to be less seizure-inducing. Also made it so the global conversation system can run through multi-line conversations, as this was broken earlier.

I just came back to /agdg/ after months, and it looks about the same, which is nice.

I'm only worried about one thing... is "that" poster gone for good?

>>168652952
No problem man. That's a seriously impressive list haha. I participated in Demo Day 9 and X, and made a bunch of changes based on feedback to those two days, but ran into hurdles making the game "fun", as it got repetitive really fast, and kind of lost steam and stopped working on it altogether.

>>168652631
> asked in general why don't we include running KickStarters
I'm new to /agdg/ and why isn't this a thing? The only real reason I can think of is "Muh look what I did pls give money"

OOP is snake oil, don't fall for their lies.

>>168652489
Glad to know you still have it, and that you still are here with us. I'll keep an eye on your new project.

>>168652901
pretty good. lava looks like shit in most games so you are ahead of the curve

Is there anyway to account for the rotation of the object when getting its box collider bounds in Unity, or is it simply a math and physics thing and I should kill myself for not understanding AABB?

trying to cast rays going from an object and keep it constrained to its bounds

How do I control and correctly harness the dark magicks of while loops? Asking for a friend.

>>168653176
I love this meme.
And then you're going to give zero information on how to make games without OOP, right? You're just going to continue hating on OOP and give no alternatives.

What actually happened to ostrichdev? How completed was his game?

>>168653103
If someone has a kickstarter, where is the line between them being AGDG and them being a whodev shill? Who decides that they are enough a part of the community to be allowed to shill in the OP?

That decision would get left to the OP, which is a dodgy path to go down, especially since the shill could be making the thread.
Then there would be drama over who is and isn't, should and shouldn't, is patron different, thread wars from people refusing to use the shill thread.

It's just better to not allow any of it. If you frequent this thread enough to deserve to be there, everyone will know you have a kickstarter anyway.

>>168652839
Here's a crazy idea, instead of making the same types of posts that he makes, why don't you stop shitposting and start making a game? Or are you going to continue to obsess over him?

>>168653396
You might be better off simply placing an empty object at the boundary, parented to the original object and use the emptys position to fire your rays from.

I think the bounding box always uses the global X Y and Z coordinates and doesn't rotate.

>>168652790
I dunno what the application for these abilities will end up being, but I suspect that some extremely cool things can come from them.

>>168653763
Thanks for proving my point, let's see how long you'll continue to post about how bad OOP is without giving any advice on how to improve non-OOP code.

>>168653707
Can't argue with that logic. Thanks for clearing it up

>>168653901
I was thinking of doing it right now. It feels messy and cheap, but it's probably one of the only ways that i'd understand right now.

>>168653961

There's literally no reason to shill in agdg. Hardly anyone is actually here. A single thread alive on /v/ for 10 minutes is 10x the shill power of posting in agdg. Having a genuine following outside of the asshole of the internet is even better.

Engine code isn't game code.

>>168654575
You advertising this in the /v/ gamedev threads?

>>168654239
I think the alternative is to use the objects rotation, and multiply the directional vectors for the angle.

Then for the position offset it would be some sort of Trigonometry finangling using the rotation angle you referenced and finding the sin and cos offsets in the YZ plane for 2D. And then the additional XZ or XY plane to do the X offset.

>>168654575
throw us a link, m8

>>168654485
And yet people do.
There's also the demographic, developers are much more forgiving of games with rough edges as opposed to the ravenous masses of /v/.

This seems short sighted though because I'm not going to give money to my competition.

Not a whole lot to report today, I fell asleep after work and didn't do much.

What I did get done was to utilize my "Stored Attack" input listen system to come up with a generic "charged light attack". This attack buffers in whenever you hold down the light attack command through an attack animation; it's a little rotary attack that does pretty minor damage, but it's radial. And, I've implemented a "steerable melee" system for it where IF you're grounded (it can't be steered in air to avoid super-abusable infinite floating, I may change that and just have it drop off early) you can move the attack around while infinitely sustaining it.

I've also got more hurtboxes implemented for attacks and am tweaking knockback... including for the "gun fists" thing for using a melee secondary.

As an aside, holding down light attack to do consistent damage while gently circle-strafing an enemy and aim-shotting him with your gun-fists is a hilarious and fun way to rack up damage.

Not pictured: a drop kick animation for Heavy 3, which finishes off 2 more attack chains. I have two, MAYBE 3 attacks left for the fist weapons (an overhead spike, a flurry punch, and maybe one other connecting attack, I'll see) and then it's done.

Well, except for "extender" attacks which occur at the end of the combo with Combo+ unlocked but those will just recycle existing animations with Wicked Weaves tacked on and bigger hurtboxes, so no actual new animation for that.

ASM is fun. You're doing GB/GBC as opposed to GBA? Because I did a bit of GBA stuff long ago and it was all C. In fact you could probably get away with using C for GB/GBC as well, if you don't actually enjoy writing ASM.

>>168657830

There is a C compiler for GB/GBC, but it has limitations, you know? You couldn't make Link's Awakening in C because the compiler just isn't efficient enough.

What's the C for GBA like? Do you have to do any manual managing of memory? Are there good tools for art creation?

I actually quite like ASM, so that's not a problem for me. It's slow as hell to work with but it's so satisfying just knowing how your code works down to the memory level, you know?

Yeah I looked it up, no GCC or LLVM backends so you probably aren't gonna get great code quality.

>What's the C for GBA like? Do you have to do any manual managing of memory?
About like any other C program, I suppose. The homebrew toolchain has a libc so you can malloc and such, though it's probably not a good idea to use dynamic allocation heavily with only 256k of total RAM.

>Are there good tools for art creation?
This was 10 years ago so I don't remember precisely. But basically the only thing you need, aside from your favorite pixel art editor, is a script to convert the images to an appropriate format for loading into VRAM.

Skyboxes don't look like they move because they're set to match the position of the camera. Whenever the camera moves, the skybox moves with it so the skybox always looks like it doesn't move at all

Because then he couldn't bask in his preteen fanbase's love.

>>168664198
It lets the sky render as if it's infinitely far away. If you rendered it as normal geometry, you'd need a bunch of empty space surrounding the level, otherwise the player will see that there's a blue-painted wall just on the other side of those conveniently-impassable mountains.

>>168664562
>Spriting enemies from 4-8 directions
Lol you shouldn't animate them moving vertically. Just have them jump to that position it'd look creepy and you could make that a mechanic to get around them. Like a fake out thing.

You could also have vertical areas be safer for the player while the horizontal ones are the ones the player has to be careful in.

Again, anyone who's programmed professionally knows how to refactor things in pieces so you can improve the codebase without leaving the build broken for months on end. Because, again, if people didn't know how to do this, nothing would ever get done.

how come turn based JRPGs have hardly changed from this.

I've been trying to use blender to paint textures following a video tutorial but for the life of me I can't get it to work.

What I do is

>set up windows for 3d view, UV editor, and node editor
>create new texture in the UV window
>create new material
>add in texture node in the node editor
>try to paint in the texture paint mode of 3d view window, nothing happens

Where am I going wrong?

Seems that way, but he said in one of his videos that he previously worked at a professional game studio. That's exactly the sort of place where you'd find piles and piles of truly hideous legacy code.

so this is what happens when you spam all the movement keys, kicks, and combat rolls.

should i fix this or is it a feature.

Ive reimplemented the movement mechanics with character controllers instead of rigidbodies as i was suggested, and reimplemented the roll/dodge mechanic.
Now i can finally make some enemies.

Do you really need an XP bar in the main battle UI? You can probably take it out, and only display it on the end-of-battle screen. At that point you can also show it increasing based on the result of the battle.

Same goes for the LVL. The player should already have a pretty good idea of the relative strength of their party members, from seeing their levels in the out-of-combat menu screens. If you really do need them displayed for some reason, maybe shorten to "L.123"?

There's too many fucking bars right next to each other I have no idea how to interpret all the information being vomited at me. You need a way to minimize the amount of data you show, and allow the positioning of that data to inform its relevance at a glance.

Like that other dude, I saw this and thought of wind waker which is indeed a good thing.
Right now it sticks out to me that the lava comes back to being flat after it's animation, but that might be on purpose to make it clear when to jump. Still, I'd add a third state where the deformation is reversed to make it a bit less obvious. Good work!

Why do people here hate Yandev so much? He might have been a thin skinned and cringy a few years ago, but now it seems to me he's just trying his best while everything is going against him. In my opinion Yandev is /our/ guy.

>>168667480
When he's lying down on his side and shooting reminds me of MGSV. Very good thing. No memeing, I would try to work this in as a feature.

Also, I used to make game here a year ago, but probably no one remembers my shitty prototype and I'm starting anew on another engine anyway, so I might as well be new here. Say hi to my blob.

>How does frustrum culling work?
Not him, but basically you compute what part of the map is in front of the camera (the shape of this area is called a "frustum"), then check that region all your level geometry to see what pieces of the level are potentially visible. Anything that is entirely behind or to the side of the camera, you don't need to render. For performance, you usually use some kind of space-partitioning tree (other anon mentioned a BSP tree) which lets you quickly exclude large regions of the map, without checking every object in that region individually.

>how bad he is at making game
Aren't we all? At least he is struggling on to try to finish something, despite basically most of the Internet except his small fanbase shunning him as either an autist, a degenerate or a weeb. He's the underdog, I can't help cheering for the underdog. In a world where dumb girls with big tits and sons of millionaires become rich by having everything handed to them, I find it encouraging to see someone having relative success being an indie gamedev, unskilled as he may be.

>>168668846
Ah, now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time.

Why is the 5% Royalty inherently bad? It's just 5%, and honestly I doubt I'll ever sell any of my games, and even if I do people wont be stupid enough to buy them.

Btw, just asking, feel free to shout at me why I'm wrong.

>>168667480
feature as fuck.
Not putting that in will reduce your income on this game by at least $100k

>>168670121
He's the underdog compared to the rest of society. He's a nerd making a game in his basement, pouring all his energy into it, even though most normal people would look at the game and think it's horrifying.

I guess it's a question of personal philosophy. Turning our passion for game dev into a sustainable income stream is the dream of many people here, and I think it's inspiring for me (and the rest of us) that someone who started from nothing but had the right combination of willpower, promising ideas, and the ability to not be demotivated by everyone saying he's gonna fail actually made it.

Sure, he's not the most skilled programmer. But everyone knows that having the most raw talent, experience and skill isn't always the way to success.
