Friendly reminder that Monster Jam is officially ON.

Always wanted to make a game where you SINK CITIES as a GIANT WORM?

NOW IS YOUR CHANCE

>>175073137

What should I use for 2D mobile games? I heard unity is overkill and game maker cost like $600+ for extensions. Is there a more affordable alternative or do I just have to suck it up and learn all the higher level programming?

>>175073831
Godot is free, I haven't tried its mobile export but there are some mobile games floating around

>>175073831
unity is the easiest

>ANNOUNCE A JAM THEME A MONTH BEFORE THE JAM STARTS
>BARELY ANYONE JOINS

XDDDD KEEP IT UP AGDG

>>175073831
godot is the easiest, not meming, it's intuitive asf

>>175073831
>Unity
>Overkill

Unity is babby's gamejam engine, it's super easy to use.

>>175073991
you too

>>175073137
Why the fuck do companies go to such lengths to create engines like Unity without having a basic sprite editor

I mean what we have works but I'd prefer that shit to be interpreted

>>175074131

by overkill I mean takes up too many resources for a 2D game - not overkill in the "building my own engine is hard" part.

so when did you realize that you'll never make it?

>>175074131
The only thing game maker has over unity is the integrated sprite/tile system which saves a decent amount of time

>>175074241
No idea

>>175074332
When I realized that you actually have to be original.
Coding is not that hard to learn, art also not, but having original ideas is something I don't know how to learn.

>>175074406
Just make a puzzle game, it's easy to be original.

>>175074406
Art is still difficult for me cause I'm new at it. I don't even want to think about eventually putting in sound

>>175074241
You say it like Unity was made from ground up for 2D games or some shit...

>>175074332
Trick question, we're all gonna make it

>>175074446
>it's easy to be original
No, it's not. At least in the genre I want to make games. It's like everything has been already done.

When the longer I developed something the farther the end seemed to be.

>>175074332
Today

Multiplayer DAW when?

>>175074332
When I divided the number of "made it" devs in the past 10 years by the number of "attempted to make it" devs in the past 10 years.

That number was very close to 0.
But then I redefined "making it" to be having fun and learning and discussing gamedev, so now that number is quite close to 1 and I'm definitely going to make it.

>>175073421
Oh come on it's a month away, it doesn't need to be in the OP right away. Demo Days are more important. The Monster jam link will go in the OP after Demo Day.

I want to create a text based game with options being displayed as buttons instead of manual inputs. What tool should I look into? Twine? Quest?

>>175074975
I always went with that definition of "making it". Max comfy, makes all the AGDG salt a joke.

And I imagine that attitude contributed to me actually finishing games, as well.

>>175074867
Why?
Just use a synched dropbox

>>175074406
When I first started game dev I started with pong, and then jumped right into my dream game.
Realized it was a lot harder than I ever imagined it would be. So I accepted it will probably take many years to get to my dream game. So now I just make small games and have fun with it.

>>175074867
I think Bitwig was supposed to have that, I'm not sure if they actually did it.

>>175074332
Right before I even started. But I needed a new hobby to take my mind away from my life so there you go.

>>175075042
Twine is most common I believe. Glulx is the format I've seen second most often for interactive stories, especially slightly older ones though.

>>175074241
Use a third party sprite editor. Sprite based games are for hobbyist entry level memers which is why they won't implement something like it.

This is a pattern of behavior that everyone notices about Ryan even outside agdg. He is a faggot who constantly craves negative attention because he knows how worthless he is as an artist, game dev and member of society, he craves abuse and negativity and is an open pedophile in a country that is extremely politically correct.

Like seriously if the planet itself could flick gogem off into space it probably would but there is already natural systems in place to make sure "people" like gogem don't get anywhere.

Wants us to believe he's super edgy and doesn't care what people think and has made plenty of money. Cries everytime he receives negative attention, lives with his fucking mom taking disability checks and begs anons on 4chan to give him money.


>>175078335
He loves game jams when they are mainstream. The one game he is most proud of he made for a pewdiepie game jam. I have yet to see him acknowledge that he has been shitposting about gamejams for the past 4 years. He has the self awareness of a jellyfish.

>>175074241
>why the fuck won't companies include every possible feature in their product?

>>175077923

Why are there so many nodevs absolutely obsessed with shitting on Goog all the time? Seriously, what's the point? They're just harassing one of the few yesdevs that comes by here.

Like, I understand they're bitter and jealous, but could they not shit up my general?

This is only the second time I've seen it. The first time gogem just posted the youtube without context (he does this whenever he knows he's advertising). It got deleted in 2 minutes for advertising.


There have been some funny moments of him trying to shill outside of agdg too never forget this one because he just said his name like a tard expecting everyone on /v/ to know who he was.

>hey /v/, i'm Ryan Jake Lambourn, developer of webm-related game, Whip the Vote, but you might know me as the developer of Restricted-RPS or Social Interaction Trainer or Sprite Smash or The Slaying of Sandy Hook Elementary or V-Tech Rampage or maybe just know me as that Australian cunt from /vg/'s AGDG.

He is such a cuck. He wants us to believe he's edgy and he is a super snot nosed faggot to us but once he slinks out to /v/ it's all cock-gobbler mode. Gogem has never been anything but a wannabe.

You don't advertise your panhandling websites outside of agdg anymore because you know you will be banned again.

Fucking JUST

When do you start drumming up interest for a game? Besides posting here, making a Tumblr, maybe a website and twitter, and using reddit, what else is there?

For a person who is currently receiving $0 in funding after making games for 5 years gogem has some very high opinions of himself. These yesdev videos are like he thinks he is at the GDC or something. He talks like he believes he is a developer who has already made six figures.


Can someone explain why I would take advice from someone with zero fans who is begging 4chan for money?

>>175078890
"reviews"
He just slowly read the synopsis of every show in the season in annoying voice.
Can't even pronounce "adaptation" right.

>>175077923
>I paywall my games to make money
>but if I don't I would be poor
But you are poor. And you don't make money. ?

>>175080527
Attention. Or he's lying about his past. Based on the patreon and the wording of his reward tiers I'd peg him at around 16-19.

>>175080527
>Can someone explain why I would take advice from someone with zero fans who is begging 4chan for money?
youre supposed to be dazzled by production value or something
be impressed with how he slices stolen progress post webms from agdg together and mumbles over them with reddit word stamps.

>>175079660
Use hg. I'd actually say use svn, but it is too unpopular in the internets.

>>175080220
Doubt it's on purpose.

Reddit and Morty wasn't very popular in 2014 and gogem doesn't seem like the guy to watch american cartoons.

>>175080527
>like he thinks he is at the GDC or something
imagine if gogem got to give a GDC talk
like a sandy hook or loli sim postmortem (heh)

>>175080771
>Or he's lying about his past.
He has shown the few thousand dollars he has earned over the past 3 or 4 years and says that is financial success which it clearly is not.

The real thing he is lying about is his entire perception of reality. He knows that we know he is broke but continues to lie even in the very video where he is asking us for money. It's a disorder.

>>175079660
why do you say that

>>175080771
>Based on the patreon and the wording of his reward tiers I'd peg him at around 16-19
It only gets more sad when you realize that he's over 30.
His life is well over, and I think he knows it.

>>175077923
>all these thumbs downs
kek he should start hiding views subs and thumbs it all makes him look worse

>>175080902
SVN is a bit simpler than git, but there are hundreds of reasons git is better. Dude should just read about how commit trees work and google every time he doesn't know what to do.

>>175081206
That's nothing. This is the video from a few months back where he admitted he was stealing our progress posts without citing our games.

>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVWAy2-1b_E
>You can't really expect me to know whos games all these clips belong to so take your credit with a comment.

We are his target audience but for some reason he wants to pick fights. Nobody outside of agdg pays attention to gogem so all these views are from us. He antagonizes everyone he comes across and then turns around and asks for favors.

And then there was the begging for paying work from Aviary Attorney dev who he later tried to campaign against on twitter. And the begging Clarent to do artwork for them but they wouldn't let him so he just started shitting on the art and shitposting about Clarent. It really never ends with the goo.

>>175081607
If I knew where to find him, I'd consider making an example of him myself, desu

>>175080803

>>175081391
>the guy at the start of the video has a mouth
Oh shit you're right. I thought it was a pair of hotdogs.

No wonder he avoids drawing mouths. And eyes. And females.

>>175081743
Program design.

It's really easy to get something working quickly but to make hundreds of elements work together in a cohesive whole is just mindbreaking. I'll often sit around for hours thinking about the best way to implement something that won't require me to rewrite it in 3 months.

>>175081743
For me it's whipping the mongoloid codemonkeys into submission.
I have never met lazier people than the """"programmers"""" on /AGDG/.

How does it feel knowing that 3-5 shitposters and a couple namefags destroyed any real community in /adgd/? I don't blame people for not coming here anymore.

Barricade the doors!
Finally getting around to reimplementing the generic content loader from last time. This has got a much more... loose affiliation of resources that should allow seamlessly streaming between rooms. Trying to represent this in simply content files is a little troubling though, so I might try to make syntactic sense of loading the next area offset by the trigger gateway position they both share. Then it might be simple enough in-file to do
DOOR: X .. Y .. TO "room_name" ;
which could affix the new room when loaded by lining up whatever DOOR it own that matches the original room.
I'm spending way too long autistically programming as usual. I'm doing this at work though so it's less suspicious just having Visual code open.

Does anyone have an issue if (for example) one of the three selectable characters you can use in a game is locked behind having to beat the game with either of the other two characters?

No, as long as the game is replayable anyway. This is better in a roguelite structure than a many-hours -long rpg.

He's self-sabotaging. It gives him easy excuses for every failure he has (which is everything).

Unfortunately for him it's not going to get him any money. Even if it could he wouldn't deserve it after spending years trying to lecture devs here that there is no money in games. He honestly deserves to be poor and broke, begging us like this and being laughed at.

The exact same thing coincidentally is happening to youtubers. They're all crying for money and being ignored and laughed at because what are they really offering of value? The same question applies here.

It was a pretty autistic complaint now that I think of it. 2 of 4 feels better yeah.

Actually the one time I would PREFER 1 of 3 is if the game was an hours long rpg. You cant really expect more than 2 playthroughs, so having a choice the first time and then a third option that really changes the way the game feels would be cool

Then why are you asking me for money? You are telling me you're a professional game developer but at the same time you are asking me for money instead of trying to sell me a game...

This is an ad though. The most blatant kind possible.

>Ssooo *slurps own spit*
Dude not to be rude but can you please not drool in my ear while asking me for money in a roundabout way? Jesus fucking christ. Make 2 calories of effort to speak correctly like a human being. Pay the smallest amount of respect to the person you are speaking to you slob.

>I sell games to make money
Repeating yourself. And lying.

>I don't want to say if you're poor you can't play my games
Then don't charge $12 for a menu screen?

>but if I don't charge money then I will be poor
You are poor. And you are charging money. This is called financial failure or failure to launch. Normally you retool your products and try to get sales. You don't give up and start asking for money while telling consumers it's really for their benefit so you can give them things for free because they are poor (not you).

Oh if only you knew how this comes across to people with brains you would really enjoy life on a new level trust me. You are a funny person.

>patreon seems like a really cool thing
It is.
>if it works
It's not going to work for you and you know it.

Hopefully you aren't lying about needing money and this final failure will cinch your retirement from gamedev. We all know that's not the case though. You don't pay bills and you don't need money or you would not have been playing make believe in here for 4 years.

yeah that was definitely Rotate. I'm glad he fucked off and his outrageously bad personality made sure his game and new dev identity were smoked.

>>175088963
Replying to your post from last thread:
480 pixels tall screen is a really awkward number to choose. It doesn't scale cleanly to either 720 or 1080. If you're gonna fuck over 720, at least choose something that scales nicely to 1080: 540 or just a little smaller.

The reason he tried coming back with another red cape character is because he has no creativity. Rotate's first game (never finished like everything else) was "rotateguy" which was going to be a VVVVV clone.

Then Theonian did the art for "Rotatevania" which never got anywhere so now rotate is using the red cape because drugs.

>>175090324

Why don't you prove you're not Rotate by taking a picture of yourself next to a screen with your game on it. Then we'll know for sure because we already know what Rotate looks like

Pretty simple to deduce this fellas.

Is he in the discord or not?

Because rotate tried infiltrating the discord like 90 times with proxies and even with a hidden IP he couldn't stop being found out. He is that stupid and his personality is that hardcoded and shitty he gets found out every single time.

If this dev who is supposedly rotate can survive discord you can statistically be certain it's not him because he already failed 90 times to infiltrate.

Also, I'm not kidding about not answering the shitposters. Are you familiar with the term lolcow?

From Urban.
A lol-cow is a victim of a flame war who can't help but be milked for lols time and time again. They have a compulsive need to give up as many laughs as possible at their own expense despite themselves.
A good Flame Warrior can turn even the most dignified poster into a lol-cow, dehumanizing them every step of the way. For some unknown reason, the lol-cow cannot break the cycle and regain their humanity.
>I wish I could stop checking this forum topic, but the lol cows come back time and time again to be milked.

Oh, so you arrived last week then, did you?
Welcome aboard, not-rotatedev!

>>175093482
>3d perspective can't be wrong
Tbh I also don't understand what's wrong with the perspective in that pic. It does looks like it is rendered with perspective transform. One can change the fov and camera angles to make the picture more or less realistic, but it remains perspective regardless.

If we all add a few pixels a day, we'll have a game in no time!

>>175092710
>it is a 3D image it can't have wrong perspective
C'mon. It's a 2d sprite, the perspective is forced. You just need to shift the camera. I'll draw some overlays in a second.

I thought it was funny to have him stumble over the weight of his horns. Your game needs charm, and that's the kind of stuff that's charming.

>>175093175
>i expect some of them honestly do think i'm this rotate guy, but not all of them
No. All of them, I guarantee it. What are you gaining by feeding them like that? I'm almost thinking you're like a paid actor in a conspiracy by discord to make AGDG entirely unusable.

>>175093617
>you did in previous threads genius when you accused me of being this guy i never heard of
Rotatedev. What you're too stupid to understand is that nobody in here mentioned you being a tranny. You brought it up for no reason. You keep saying
>do i sound like a transexual to you
and shit when it makes no sense. You are giving yourself away.

Goddamn you are hopeless. Good riddance.

I can produce high quality 2D art, but I don't work quickly/efficiently, because I haven't drawn seriously since school.

What's the genre I should be working on?

I don't want to make a shmup. I could probably tolerate making the animations for a platformer/sidescroller for the protagonist, but I'd find animating enemies to be a chore.

your shit is just that
shit

>>175093617
>it fucking can't though
So what you're saying that if there's a 3d projection on the screen, it will always be of correct perspective?

>>175090615

my favorite part is the door repeating its opening animation endlessly

well give up now, because game dev is not for the weak/lazy.

there is no game genre in which you can take 'shortcuts'

Different anon here. I've been here for four years and I remember rotatedev's original posts. Your mannerisms are exactly the same. You laugh coyly at anyone who confronts or criticizes you, or turn it into a really stupid joke. You reply to multiple posts at once and you've never heard of the shift key. The resemblance is uncanny. I don't actually care if you're the same person, but rotatedev had some really bad habits, and you share them, and that makes you a nuisance for the same reasons. So, I'm gonna tell you this once, and then filter you.

>>175093898
I don't really care about the picture and if its perspective is right or wrong, i'm only laughing at the notion that its always right

>>175094319

i'm trying to go for more of a cool rather than cute aesthetic but the wings seem like a nice idea

Mario is a character 4 times older than you and he happens to be pretty large and 3D these days. He also tended to cover a significant part of the screen.
You are drawing fucking ants.

No, trannies are superior programmers

>>175094714
>they're putting too much effort in for it to be a joke
You don't get the mindset of a full-fledged NEET flamer. They have nothing else to do. They are wasting time, but time is literally all they have. And what little effort they put in flaming you is compensated every time you bite and reply to a post. You could imagine that they have an Earth-shattering orgasm every time they see a (You). The punchline of the joke is whatever you say every time you respond. It doesn't even matter whether they actually are getting under your skin or not. It kinda looks like they are, and that's enough to keep it going.
Stop replying to them.

Does this count as a game? Been a while since I did interface design like this. Array sorting takes me back to comp sci class.

>>175094848
This is a unique style and if you can carry it through the whole game you can have something special.

I have to do a talk on Thursday about my game. What should I talk about? I already have some basic topics, but what is most important?

>>175095427
Microtransactions and the season pass

>>175095427
Who are you talking to? What's the context?

>>175095350
Sure does.
Is this some kind of inventory?

The UI looks really confusing.

quick question

say i have an opaque particle effect overlapping something solid black- would the overlapping color just be my base opaque color 50% of the way between itself and solid black?

and like, if it were overlapping a gray at 50% brightness, it would be halfway between itself and that?

>>175094848
the black lines through everything makes it look like it was just grilled desu senpai

Local Game dev group. Small group of people. Context is they don't have a speaker this week so I get to talk about my game and whatever I want about it since I'm one of the few who have a game anywhere close to release

>>175095382
The shapes and colours are good, it's just the weird liney pattern that's not supposed to be there.

1st one looks too try hard on undertale and the 2nd one is a bit more inspired but barely so.
This is coming from someone who has a sprite that looks like fucking metaton so I'm not one to talk.
Still uninspired undertale with sub par music but I'm saying from my subjective likes in the TBRPG formula. Honestly with enough time I could manage a better ost but that's if you like quirky earthboundish sampled stuff since that's what I'd like to have. Except really good drum patterns. This guy was totally inspired by Lisa and he made his ost before his game. At least his demo runs but its barely 40min of game time, yet he says the demo on youtube pales in comparison of the content he has now.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OqDrHYYugw
I dont want a shitty story like undertale, I prefer a premise that's a lot more realistic (business oriented instead of cutesy les b frens and no one has to die) besides story is something to worry about once all the basic mechanics are in order, or at least in my case.

>>175094714
>won't it?
How do you explain curvilinear and rectilinear lensess, axonometric and oblique projections, anamorphosis, foreshortening?

>>175095427
Talk about how you can fucking see anything on this background.

>>175096224
will anyone notice that?

>>175095671
Depends on the blending func, but by default yes, 50% opaque on top of black just halves the colour values.

>>175096294
>can't see
Okay, I'll darken it. Any other criticisms? Anything about the topic I asked about?

pixel art is way more fun than how i imagined it to be based on agdg posts

Do you prefer vertical or horizontal shooters?
