Decided last night to change my game somewhat again to ease up the workload. Previously I was going to have dungeons and an open world akin to OoT, but it's just too much for one person if I want to get it out within the next few years. I mean, I originally wanted to have the game done by last may, but I'm not even close to being anywhere near done. Rather than big dungeons I'm going to have several small floating island stages, kind of like Toads Treasure Tracker, except the camera will still be 3rd person, so I don't have to worry about restricting the island to a cube. This way I can re-use a lot of the same assets despite there being different puzzles for each stage. I think I might even be able to pump out 2 or 3 different stages before demo day doing this.

Please stop this bullying it's making me nervous

>>180410189
>does he seem like someone who would have high self esteem?
I was here for his nightly breakdowns of crying to agdg about how his friends didn't like his garry's mod map and shit. He did that for a couple months before fully giving up and becoming a shitposter (or "sourceposter"). No he has never had high self esteem. I just get the feeling he's physically ugly as a gypsy turd on asphalt. He seems that kind of upset. Goes beyond gamedev.

>>180410259

>he thinks sourcefam can be banned
lol
Every once in a while he has to wash dishes at his part-time job or he has to suck penises and steal things to make some money to afford more alcohol but besides that sourcefam can't be removed from agdg. His shitposting is so frequent and steady and he's been doing it for so many months (almost 9 now) that surely mods would have permabanned him if they could. He has without a doubt racked up the most reports for his shitposts than anyone in agdg. He might even be a top ten all-time 4chan shitposter across all boards. He's that dedicated.

All because he wanted to bully yesdevs and couldn't handle being bullied back last summer.

>>180412806
Possibly, depends on what exactly you're recording and how it's going to be used in-game. It will NOT be good enough for very detailed sounds like voice acting, but might work okay for more ambient sounds like background noises or footsteps.

I'm trying to figure out what this paragraph
>All you do in a jitter buffer is hold packets before delivering them to the application at the correct time as indicated by the sequence number (frame number) in the packet.
>The delay you need to hold packets for in this buffer is a much smaller amount of time relative to interpolation delay for snapshot interpolation but it’s the same basic idea.
>You just need to delay packets just enough (say 4-5 frames @ 60HZ) so that they come out of the buffer properly spaced apart.
is supposed to mean. I get storing packets, and then applying them in order after a delay but what is the delay relative to? the timestamps on the packets is from the server clock, which isn't synced to the client clock in any way. Do we apply a packet when we receive a packet that's five frames ahead of it? that just means if the connection drops no packets get applied. Do we try to keep a second clock that's in sync with the server clock? That seems prone to breaking.

Does anyone else remember when rotate was posting videos of himself like he was a big deal here? In one video he was literally telling another dev to fuck off.
>fuck off nobody wants you here
Like he was the president of agdg. That person was c-kun and rotate still talks shit about and tries to bully him whenever he imagines he's around.
He has always been a bully and that's why so many polls prove that people hated him.
Now he's still up to the same shit with people who never liked him.
There are 1 o 2 other bullies and genuinely psychotic people who enjoy playing along with this. They bullied Aviary Attorney dev. They bullied Arikado until he left. And now they spam "danny" in these threads to bully another dev who they want gone.
They're just plain bad people and will amount to nothing in their life, let alone in game dev. Not this year or the next.
Rotate will always be remembered for being a bully and a spoiled little brat who tried splitting agdg up into his own private website. He will always hate the fact that people here remember that and don't like him and he will always try to climb the back of other devs like Arikado or anyone else to get back in the spotlight. But he will never be a success. He'll never have a game. And that's the truth.

Licensing being free to use without any royalties, so long as you released on steam and "don't hold your breath" were the last things I heard about it. Valve wrote their own physics to get out of that cancerous license old havok and that was the biggest hurdle for licensing in terms for third party devs.

The recap was posted like 4 or 5 threads ago in early monday.

>>180414890
Yes. The middle portion of a game is always the hardest. When you first start you have a lot of fun because you're making a bunch of new mechanics and getting everything to work together. But the middle part is when you start putting together tedious things and cleaning things up. So there's less exciting new stuff.
Keep going, it gets better again.

>>180415667
weekly recaps exist to keep you honest with yourself, not to showcase progress. That's what demodays are for and they are already bimonthly

If it's a game you would genuinely have fun playing for an extended period of time there is likely other people who would as well. Although you can't really know if it's fun until you make a prototype.

Character creation screen had a lot of stencil based costumization options (think of APB reloaded) or the option to upload your own texture file, since there was a big emphasis on war paint (the name of the game)
Then you got thrown into a huge colosseum like arena where you had to fight with a shit ton of other people. There was a won fights ranking and a respect points ranking. Respect points were given based on the melee weapons you used (heavier weapons got less respect points) and the way you fight (you got negative points when you attacked people from the back or people stunned by someone else's attack)

the music sounds like it can be improved if you quieted down the kick or clap in it, basically focus on the main beat and use the bass or kick to support it, that way it is a catchy tune. think of how the older zelda games had a simple and slow tune and try to emulate that.

It's truly free, you can use it however you want. It doesn't hold your hand like Gamemaker does, so it's more flexible. A lot of the differences are more personal preference though. Like the language, GDScript, and the whole node/scene structure of the engine.

For 2D games, Godot is a solid engine that's worth checking out. For 3D it's currently not that great (still better than Gamemaker). Godot 3.0 has a lot of 3D improvements, so we'll have to wait and see how good that is. But I think UE4 will still usually be the best choice for complex 3D games.

It's something really simple actually, Think of early arcade or NES games.
Their AI is not radiant, they are very dumb, they wander around the village and run away from you into the house when they see you. But I plan to improve on it, at least for some NPCs.
They will keep spawning no matter how many of them you kill, so I guess they are repopulating to some degree, but their spawn rate lowers a little on higher levels.

I actually made a solid Alex Kidd remake a few years back, but I had a pretty spectacular HDD failure and lost absolutely everything along with a load of decent unity projects. Really killed my mojo for the past couple of years. I just did this one quick for shits and giggles, its rough as guts right now but idgaf. I've been awake for about 36 hours and it turns out I am surprisingly productive when I am so tired I can't walk straight.

Reminder that many, MANY people attempt to make games and of the few who actually make something, the tiniest sliver of these people have something that achieves some sort of "success."

Reminder that this is a fun hobby, but you need to adjust your expectations and look at the facts more closely, if you have mistaken assumptions about how it will play out for you.

>>180428681
the very basics can be learned in like a few hours by reading the manual, gamedev is a constant learning experience though so you will always run into new problems find out new shit, the usual recommendation is to start by cloning old games like pong and tetris before working on your real game
-
depends on the kind of game but you will most likely redo shit as you build up the gameplay, things never go according to plan and won't know the technical specifications of the assets until you build the framework of the game and find out what looks best
-
when starting out the best process is to simply do it in the most direct manner, don't get too distracted by coding patterns and abstractions and development best practices bla bla bla, just learn as you go and google often

for general tutorials on godot I recommend the videos from KidsCanCode and GDQuest on YouTube

if you're a roguelite fan you recently got to choose between dead cells, flinthook, tumbleseed and monolith and of them I don't see many reasons for people to break for monolith at the exclusion of the others on the list

>>180432545
Try the demo. I think its just sprite or object limited like the old one. I'm loving it, but still need time to get used to the zoom/pan of the workspace. You'll find they've tweaked a ton of things to improve the workflow, little things you wont notice at first, but they make a big difference to usability. I've been tooling around in both today, and its pretty jarring to go back. The room/layer editor shits on GMS. Shits on it. Some GML changes will mess with you for a bit, just read the help for obsolete functions. Or just buy it. I work. $50-$70 is nothing for a basic licence. I've bought bottles of grog that cost more than that and didn't last as long.

Anyone know how to get a Hori Fighting Stick Mini 4 to work with Gamemaker? I can't even get a good third party DS4 software like Inputmapper to read it. Xbox360CE works but I can't get Gamemaker to read the Xbox360CE ini files, followed the instructions and ran the exe in the directory Gamemaker is located in. This stick works natively with PC versions of SFV and Skullgirls which I've tested already. But not Gamemaker.

That game has horrible reviews. Does that account for all the refunds you had?

like i've been telling you guys, steam reviews dont matter. they're like newgrounds reviews but with less credence.
yes it accounts for refunds.

Ah, thats something I forgot to add. GM2 has pretty good native xinput support.

Try search SCPToolkit (1.7ish?) Ds4windows was shitting me up the wall with my pc. You'll have to get a BT dongle or sacrifice onboard BT for wireless. Fuck me win7 has a weird thing where you can only have one BT reciever enabled at a time. If you have onboard BT, disable it and grab a dirt cheap targus adapter to sacrifice for the scp driver. If its a cabled stick happy days. SCPToolkit, follow instructions, plug and play.

now consider that his game probably took 1 month to make and didnt require much art(or gameplay for that matter)
