WTF are you doing OP? If this is some stealth "me first" shit you should really consider kys.

Would a celeron with 4GB of RAM be useful for anything?
So far I know it runs Visual Studio just fine. But that's only for college projects so it's pretty small.
I already have a desktop at home. I'm just looking for something cheap + portable.

Or am I completely fucked? Would be mainly for c# or Java

>>173798849
This is why no one wants their game associated with AGDG. baka.

>>173799726

Given that both Yooka-Laylee AND Bayonetta released yesterday on PC, it's pretty incredible I've gotten anything done at all.

Started implementing menus, though, and it's coming along smoothly. All of the text and button icons are placeholders right now, I just want the main logic implemented correctly and then I can design some graphics for it later on. The big thing was making the system expandable; the worst thing about Mayhem League's menus was that there was no easy iterative way to slot elements in, every button's connection to every other button had to be manually specified because I wasn't using UMG's Navigation systems.

So, now we're using Navigation. It's a little hacky at places, but it's functional. Buttons can specify any arbitrary widget (with the intent being other menus) to direct the player to, or perform a few other specific tasks (unpause, exit the level, quit to desktop, start a new save game, or load an existing save game). The "Level Progress" indicator actually uses the save game state to populate itself (it knows which levels there is saved data for, and it generates an entry automatically based on how many it finds). It will also be able to look into the level's saved data to populate the count fields, but right now this is just placeholder text.

Also, making a small change to the structure of Dixie. Originally, you collected either full Power Cores, or small Power Core Shards, and accumulating 20 shards would net you a full core. NPC quests and such were intended to yield lump-sum quantities of shards.

I decided this places way too little emphasis on NPC quests (or leaves you with very few in-world collectibles, which I think are super necessary), so now NPC quests will yield "Core Husks", which are basically empty Power Cores. You now need to have one husk, PLUS the 20 shards that fill it, to synthesize a full Power Core.

>I'm not the anon you're responding to
I've noticed this and "where's your game" are the first line of defense when shitty devs get a dose of reality.

>>173804296
He makes overly long and detailed videos about random shit and whining instead of working on the game, it's also very likely that he will drop his hugely ambitious project and weeb nerds all over the world will stampede over his home.

How do you handle neighbor aware tiles which can change at runtime? Do you just re-calculate all the indexes around the changed tile with the new value?

>>173804205
No. That's all animated manually with widget animations. There's actually a lot of hacky shit going on to make those transitions work; a lot of "trigger animation, delay, destroy widget, create widget, trigger animation" work.

The level stat readout is actually a single tab widget where I slide it off screen to the left, snap it instantaneously to the right, update its displayed child, and slide it back in.

>>173804759
That's alright. There's been a lot of big changes since then (for the better I'm hoping) to the story and whatnot. I'm considering just smashing the 'it's a VN now' button and culling the adventure-y bits now that I'm looking at what the new story is demanding in work.

Regardless, the overall story and characters have improved in my mind - should be a stronger game for it though it'll require me to throw out or rearrange a bunch of the work I've done so far.

>>173804871
There's no proof I could offer that I'm not that anon that you would accept anyway. Webpages are easy to edit.

>>173807327
they mention improving the particle system in 3.0 here https://godotengine.org/article/godot-30-progress-report-6

so in unity, how would I make a certain item have two identifiers? I want to be able to have two teams. so if a certain unit is team 1 or team 2. then I want to identify what kind of unit it is. as in soldier, building, etc.

>>173807797
I'd just use a Tag and a Layer.
Or you can just embed whatever it is in a Component that all game objects (units/soldiers/buildings) have.

>>173807567

>kind of having trouble understanding the basics of unity
Well, that's actually not basics of unity, just basics of simple RTS development. I advise you to look at some RTS code examples, so maybe you can figure out an implementation. I don't know how good or bad these are, but try them out:

https://stormtek.wordpress.com/2013/01/
http://www.stormtek.geek.nz/rts_tutorial/

> how scripts interact with each other between objects.
http://unitylore.com/articles/script-communication/
http://unitylore.com/articles/unity-event-messaging/

Basically you can access stuff directly by referring to it in multiple ways, or send a message to something, or have eventss that you can subscribe to, etc etc. Depends on what you want to achieve.

You seem like a person that doesn't know anything about programming, so maybe it'd be better to make a few simple 1-day projects so you can familiarize yourself with some concepts before you jump into something more serious.

There's a pretty big skill gap between character modeling and modeling hard surfaces.

Would it be possible to install and run Unity on a USB stick?
I want to mess around with shit while I'm at work and I already do it with other software like NP++. Anyone have any experience and/or would it work?

>>173812182
Thanks! I wish i could still work on it. But im tired as hell... 12 hours deving and procrastinating. Im getting tired of JJBA Openings Loops for music haha.

I just need simple blocky hair anon. I don't need detailed ones. I made blocky hairs earlier but i feel conflicted with the style. Thanks for the picture though!
>>173812340
I'm quite not confident with my character modelling anon. I'm trying to achieve the style of comfy sailing (in the comfy jam) in characters. And as you can see my models are simple. Sorry if i disappointed you.

>>173812340

i think its pretty obvious

>>173812293
That's what the VN is for.

Is difficulty and restarting an acceptable replacement for content?

Title screen works and transitions properly to and from the level scenes. Pretty happy with how it came out.
Still left to do

Anyway, I feel honored that you're getting inspired by my character designs and style. Keep up the good work.

Beating 20 hard levels is more fun than beating 10 hard levels.

I only got up a few hours ago, but after eating a chocolate and marshmallow pizza for breakfast I started work on my Nations system. Some backend programming stuff, and I began the UI (on the left). It's pretty sparse so far though, mostly just copy-pasted from my inventory UI (on the right).

By the way, you should check out Sebastian Lague's series on character creation on youtube. It's what I used to learn how to model, texture and animate.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DiIoWrOlIRw&list=PLFt_AvWsXl0fEx02iXR8uhDsVGhmM9Pse
It's really well done and easy to understand, and it should quickly teach you all you need.

Spent an hour last night debugging why my vr controllers weren't showing up in unity. Turns out me upgrading to 5.6.X and Steam VR 1.2.1 have a bitch fit and won't work together. Using 5.5.0 is fine I guess.

any fresh ideas for a 2d game that isn't the same old platforming? like gunpoint for example

nah. the people who release all the code and setup projects for people to download is the mistake. I could go and download a unity game project right now for a fps shooter and then just edit the map and basically make a "new" game.

>>173815134
Mix the tenderness of a nice steak with the feeling you get when opening a fridge only to realize that the thing you wanted to eat is gone.

>>173811749
why would you ever want that

>>173815134
Top down tank game. Shoot tanks. Get their tank parts. Slap tank parts on tank. Become larger. Become tanker. Eventually you are an aircraft carrier sized mass of guns and engines.

>>173804623
then why don't you do a redraw and fix the issues? or is it you don't know what issues your anatomy has?

>>173806062
looks cool but tell me those characters are placeholders?

>>173815895
Call it Tank Me

>>173815981
Attempting to redraw what anatomy I did wrong will not magically fix the anatomy. If anything it's risking even further distortion. What's wrong is my understanding and my technique - one part can be fixed through a few iterations; the other can only be fixed through much longer (and many more iterations of) study.

There's no point in me redrawing the hands, for instance, as they'll continue to look janky until I understand the underlying structure better. That's something that's going to take many more hands drawn from many angles to resolve. As a for instance, the hands have been redrawn about six times each; this has been the best attempt so far.

Ultimately, if I want to progress with this game, I'm going to have to accept that parts of my art will continue to be poor in places. I'd rather make progress even if my art isn't perfect over slaving over studies and the like and getting nothing but that done.

Excuses m8, but good luck nonetheless.

A game about opening soda cans in supermarkets and drinking the contents inside, but still paying for it of course.

>>173816124
They are. They're just leftovers from my last project. What's wrong with them though?

>>173815895
so basically captain forever remix?

>>173817025
The police are on their way

>>173816967
I do, yes. I mount all my clothing on nude sketches - you need that underlying structure to make believable clothing anyway.

It's not an excuse - it's a choice. I can choose either to work on studying my anatomy more or choose to work on making my game more; I'm choosing to spend more time working on my game than working on my anatomy. The consequence of that is my anatomy will continue to not be great; in exchange, my game won't be waiting X months/years for my anatomy to improve to a professional level.

>tfw can make 2d games but never actually finish anything
why people are whining about something that can be done in a matter of minutes if you understand how to program?
also what's your finished projects/wip rate?

>>173795750
that's some... lmfao

>>173819795

depends how finished you mean. I made a basic rpg game before. was like 3 areas, a finished combat system, and a only/final boss.

Then I started a new 2d game since that one was so poorly written since it was my first game. stopped that one after making system to load maps and the inventory screen.

then I wanted to check out javascript/html/canvas so I made a quick and dirty galaga/r-type kind of game.

Now I am working on a first person horror kind of game. I might also be working with a team for a different game as well.

so that is what, 2/4-5 score for me?

>>173819795
Why don't you force yourself to finish something?

>>173820541
it turns out game designing isn't the same as programming, even if you have mechanics done it means nothing if you can't put them together into something meaningful

>>173819438
It completely depends on where you buy and if people who work there know you. Some stores get triggered if you do it because you could just drink it and dispose of the empty can in a quiet area quickly.

>>173820989
>pong
are you stupid? it's 2d, if you can't make a tile map, sprite manager, pathfinder, basic collision handler, simple enemy behavior from scratch in minutes then you're doing something really wrong

Sound is going to be an important part of my game, with audio cues for gameplay and music tracks being unlocked as rewards, but since it's so important I don't know if I should add a mute button, I don't want to encourage the player to miss half of the fun of the game but I also don't want to be a jerk and force the player to listen to it.

Could you give some constructive criticism, /agdg/?

1. What is this monster?
2. Does the side sprite looks like it belongs to the same creature of the front sprite?
3. How to improve: 3.1 side sprite and 3.2 front sprite?

Self-imposed constraints:
a. Human (male) fits 17 pixel width and less than 34 pixels height (to serve as base for comparison)
b. Trying to make max 4 colors for skin/fur, and more 4 for equipment (not included in the sprite show)

Thanks in advance!

>>173829642
Can't be that great since they all succumb to laziness eventually

Friendly fucking reminder that Patreon's monthly payment format ENCOURAGES you to never ever finish whatever it is that you're doing.
It's simply not designed for games and this kind of product should honestly be banned from Patreon, but of course it won't because it's free money.

I think it's a good way to fund continued development after a competent release like Dwarf Fortress.
