Could you theoretically develop a game for an old system and use an old cartridge to play it?

>>181852813
>not writing comments
>not creating class diagrams
>not having detailed descriptions of every feature

>>181853043
RTS is flawed because at any given point your success is not determined by your overarching strategy unless your actions per minute is equal to your opponent. RTS serves only to compare your performance to what a computer could do, and strategy and decision making plays very little role in it. some games contain more or less strategy and decision making, for example supreme commander is very much a game about strategy and decision making. starcraft is a game more about decision making than strategy. both games have the above flaw.

>>181853260
writing comments is bad practice. Just write good code.

>>181853362
why is it so popular I wonder
and why aren't there more competitive TPS?

>>181853364
doesn't matter how good code you write, you're not going to immediately digest complex nested logic. What could be 'good code' 5 months ago could be awful to your future self.

>>181853260
I do comment, though it's not much. thankfully VS has an extension where I can toggle to hide all comments so they're not in the way.

>not creating class diagrams
I don't think I've ever done this. Sounds like fun and a waste of time

flappybird is simple and challenging
minecraft is a well-made sandbox
they're totally different and appeal in different ways
the only thing they have in common is >>181855547

>>181855451
Accessibility and simplification of mechanics. There were about 10 other games similar to minecraft before minecraft but were too much of a timesink with high learning curves.

>>181855451
Flappybird and all other mobile shit have no bearing on whether theyre good. Its literally if it gets word of mouth by normies because they have to stay on the current fad.

Minecraft actually filled a niche that was lacking. Albeit one Notch just stole and slightly polished.

the average IQ is 100, half of them are even dumber

if you want your game to be popular, make it for retards

>>181855451
Flappybird was viral shit.

Minecraft exploded thanks to the mod community. Sandbox games and modding go hand and hand.

It wasn't some brilliantly designed game either. Early Minecraft was slow as balls. Most of the optimizations and speed improvements did not come from Notch, but rather the team that took over.

Can you just put it on a pastebin and put the link here? I am interested but I don't have a myspace account.

Also I'm going to address some points from your video.

>having to reorganize the inventory system is tedious
This was a recurring complaint and I've fixed it shortly after Demo Day. Ammo goes directly into the main inventory now and the bottom bar is just for weapons (unless you drag things manually).

>lack of feedback
I have an explosion animation for the grenades but for some reason it wasn't being displayed properly for the demo build. I'll definitely work on adding more feedback for everything.

>smallness of the level
I had some performance problems that I found out shortly before demo-day so I abandoned a bigger map I was working on and went with my small test level. The performance is mostly fixed now.

>enemies shooting you out of the screen
This is a recurring complaint. I've tried to make it easier for the player in each iteration but I'll continue working on it. My next plan is to make the game window bigger.

>colors are confusing
I wanted to stay within a limited palette but all the visuals are temporary anyway.

>stuck in the shutter without dying
It's because you were in godmode. You would have died otherwise.

Thanks for the feedback!

Rotoscoping is simply traced video, how realistic the end product looks is entirely up to the artist.

And Snow White has realistic animation.

Even though the protag is probably in my top 5 of most insufferable. It was a wild ride and things were pretty ridiculous at the end. Not to mention i love bleak atmospheres.

>>181862481

>>181862679
rotoscoping is less lazy than 3D CGI i'll give it that, it still looks just as bad though.

>>181861858
>>181863559
better ask /g/

but I'll give my honest advice:
Learn first C, make some C shit, or just read the C programming book (a classic).

then learn C++, use any guide or the official C++ language book by the inventor.

then learn modern C++ and how smart pointers work.

then maybe learn the STL with the Chanel 9 course on C++ on Channel 9 by some microsoft library developer.

then maybe learn about templates, metaprogramming and more advanced BS.

then learn Boost.

then learn SDL or SFML and opengl.

then kys because fuck that shit and unity is easier.

>Rotoscoping an animation technique used by animators to trace over motion picture footage, frame by frame, when realistic action is required. Originally, photographed live-action movie images were projected onto a glass panel and re-drawn by an animator. This projection equipment is referred to as a rotoscope. Although this device was eventually replaced by computers, the process is still referred to as rotoscoping.

You're going to have to be more specific about both the genre of the game and the style of the story.

Ok I wanna make a short 2d game cause im free for 3 months
never done it before
where should I start?
should I use unity c#? is it all gonna be free or do I have to pirate anything?

>>181865045

are you asking if you need to pirate unity or if you have to pirate photoshop or what

>>181864650
>that image
>pot calling the kettle black
oh you silly goyim

>>181865045
to make a 2D game, all you need is Unity (free), Visual Studio (free), Paint.NET or Gimp (both free) and Audacity (free)

to make music I'd do FL Studio, which isn't free but there you go

>>181863348
>>181864861
Yes. It's a really early build, i'll keep adding shit.

now I should sleep

>>181865178
well i got no idea how it works i only know of unity
will i need photoshop for art or what? cant i steal models?

>>181865045
godot or unity are the best starting points. godot has very fleshed out 2d support, unity you have to fiddle with it a little but has more options.

if you're not intent on learning anything about gamedev, use gamemaker.

>>181865190

That's 2.5D, anon.

>>181864694
>>181865038
It would be a turn based strategy game in the vein of FF tactics, Wasteland, old Fallouts, etc, but with mechs. Squad centered, with each character/mech specialising in a certain role, like traditional RPG classes. Upgrades, visual novel elements for storytelling, choices that affect the relationship with other members of the squad and a few alternate endings.

The story is set in a near future or alternate present. There's political intrigue, plenty of boring concepts thrown around, like hacking, economic sanctions, the expansion of influence of an European version of the Congressional Budget Office, militarization of youths, and the ultimate realisation that you, as the mc have been playing in the hands of a third party that is hinted at throughout the game but not revealed until the very end. The ending throws a fucked up thought in your face and is supposed to make you a bit shitty, but nonetheless content with having played the game and had fun.

Does this rambling sound good in any way or form?

2.5D means both 2D gameplay with 3D models and 3D gameplay with 2D sprites.
It covers both DOOM and Street Fighter IV/V.
But in this day and age nobody makes DOOM-style 3D games anymore so it's understood to mean games like New Super Mario Bros.

>>181866865
He isn't wrong. 2.5D games are sidescrollers with multiple layers tricking you into thinking it's 3D (See: almost every 2D platformer), or games which use isometric 2D art to do the same (See: age of empires 1).
Although the term is used also for 3D games where you can only move in a plane (See: Trine), this is not what a 2.5D game is and it's inaccurate to call Trine 2.5D.

>>181867126
Unity sucks in 2D. The engine is inefficient and in order to optimize it properly you'd need to buy out source code access. You'd be better off using GameMaker for 2D, or Unreal for 3D. Or, free engines such as Godot or Atomic Game Engine.
