Commissioning 3rd parties to make the 3d assets and art.

First I do a design image with what I want, then I send it off to the artist. Artist does a sketch and sends it back, which I correct. Then he does the final colour. Sometimes when I want something specific I'll do a rough sketch myself.

With concept art and 3D, I do a description or design, send it to the artist, he sends back the sketch, I make corrections, then I send it off to the 3D guys, they make the model and send it back, I make corrections and then await the final product.

What kind of music would you like to hear in a post WW3 dystopian Sci-fi (avoiding the term "cyberpunk" for now, but it definitely has those elements too). It is gonna be extremely story/lore heavy, 2D, turn based strategy if that helps. I thought of

You could be cute and like mix post WW2 music with aspects of the genres you listed.

Although maybe post WW2 music from the defeated countries, if WW3 happens how it's stereotyped. Actually, that's a good question. In your world ARE there winners after WW3? You could set up contrasting musical themes for different zones, the winners and losers.

Nice roleplaying, shame it didn't actually happen to a shitposter like you!

Now that mobile games have been established, do you prefer mobile over old flash games, or do you still prefer flash games

https://strawpoll.com/338g61dw

>>183142484
Mobile games are mostly bland corporate trash, newgrounds was amazing because it was a lawless land of edgy kids throwing shit at walls and seeing what sticks.

>>183142484
>do you prefer mobile over old flash games
Absolutely not.
Mobile games have none of the charm or passion or experimentation that defined flash games back when they were still hot shit.
They're strictly commercial and most of them suck.

>>183142484
Maybe I haven't been paying attention, but there were more beautiful small well designed games made in flash, mixed in with the rest. It seems like those beautiful small gamedevs have mostly moved on to unity and itch, whereas mobile took all the shit.

>>183142484
Flash was convenient at the time, and I have fond memories of them, but it had to die

Mobiles games now have enough variation that my recommended list is not filled with Pay to Win BS and are actually decent

>>183142082
What's wrong with the LOS?

>>183141653
>>183141365
Indeed a good question. There are winners, but not in the traditional sense. The game is about what countries/people portray v/s what actually is the truth. In the game,after WW3 , there are no countries anymore, but alliances, and as the WW3 was started by a single country and a few smaller supporting countries, after the war the main axis country is just simply stripped of it's ebil gubmint people and joins one of the less aggressive alliances. Keep in mind this isn't actually the real world , but a fictional world which resembles our world, so there's no "the evil country was germany/russia", or "the good countries were USA,UK and China".
>>183141653
I know. The tone is basically what I mentioned above, the basic idea is that it isn't exactly a dystopia but a post-war "pay reparations" kind of scenario except that there is no one to blame, and allaince leaders don't even know that there are betraying/higher forces at work.
I am sorry if it doesn't make much sense, it is quite hard to convey the base idea without giving away too much detail.

Flash. I want to make this but with my own style of gameplay/art. Adventure Quest is its very own type of game that I haven't really seen replicated anywhere else. I want to make an offline version that's a full fledged game but preserves the 1 on 1 fighting style and simple flash style screen/transitions/dialogue.

>>183142484
There are a lot of completely free (no ads) flash trash games with a lot of love in them.

Compared with mobile trash, where devs do the absolute little possible, and always have $$$ on the brain, flash seems great.

Stop thinking so much in terms of genres. You can't have a wild success like this by simply repeating known ideas, you have to try legitimately novel things and fail 90% of the time.

That said, obviously RBC still has the hook of being grounded in chess.

Texturing my heavy enemy. Any ideas for decals?

>>183143271
That's fine. I mean I want more tabletop style RPG gameplay but I accept I have niche tastes. I'm also referring to it from a purely functional standpoint. I'd rather have
>More quests
>More areas/dungeons
>More enemies
>More skills/talents/abilities

Than have complicated real time combat in a high res 3D worldspace. That format allowed a single dev(I think, it was definitely indie as fuck) to implement patch after patch of content in a timely manner. I find the simplistic nature of the pipeline for content super awesome and inspirational. I think games that have a single gimmick mechanic and design arcade levels around that (super meat boy, etc) to be absolute trash, so to each their own.

The best part about indie dev is that you don't have to dev for everyone. You get to dev for people like you. I'd rather make a game that caters to 120% of what one audience wants than try and snag 60% of two audiences or 40% of three audiences.

Checkers but pieces are random.

>>183143837

Are there any math PhDs here? I need some help

Basically i have a speed, which at the beginning is say 100m/s. An unchanging force is constantly acting against this speed (let's say gravity, so -10m/s/s)

So this would be the speed of the given object over time, with gravity acting on it:
0s - 100m/s
1s - 90m/s
2s - 80m/s
...

I need to calculate where in space the object is at a given time.
So let's say the start position of the object is 0m (we only have one axis of movement)

So at 2 seconds time the position of the object will be somewhere around +180 meters above zero (by my estimate) (if there was no gravity, it would be +200m since it traveled 2 seconds at 100m/s speed)

I need tome way to exactly calculate the position on the axis for any given time (5 seconds, 28 seconds.. etc)

I am cute girl, and I have been stuck at this forever, please help me.

Seriously though, a core game mechanic, which i need to implement hinges upon me solving this and i have never felt so dumb ;_;

break it down into as small a feature as you can think of
what exactly do you need to make to implement this menu? Moving items, adding things to an array, checking array coordinates to see if a shape will fit, etc

currentBullets being the current amount of bullets, bulletsShown the amount of small bullets shown and clips the amount of shotgun shell clips the player still has.

I think that GMS uses its own coding language, so I at least can figure out how it works before I step into that once I'm better at coding in general, for now I'm just focusing on simple tiny games that are fun and easy, like pic related

What kinds of issues do you think I'll run into trying more complex stuff?

What's a good way to change "myEmotion" when switching dialogue (e.g. when myText[1] comes on screen switching myEmotion to 5)?

I'm still learning the ropes. don't tell me its a bazillion "if else" statements

>>183151290
myEmotion[0] == sad
myEmotion[1] == surprised

>>183151290
I would make myText be an array of ConversationEvents, of which dialogue is a type of conversation event, but so too are emotion changes. So you could be like
myText[0]= new DialogueConversationEvent("What a nice watch.")
myText[1]= new EmotionChangeConversationEvent(Emotions.Angery)
myText[2]=new DialogueConversationEvent("Hey, thats MY watch!")

>>183152347
Those are /actually/ high-res normal maps that I put into the terrain texture for shigs until I make low-poly ones (never). There actually isn't a texture at all. Also, only been dicking with Unreal and modeling for a couple hours.

What is a simple game you could make in a week without an engine?

I don't want to make pong.

I'm writing a wrapper of sorts for Unity's input system so it can have rebindable controls.
I'm thinking of making a class that contains a list of KeyCodes of the players keys, and bunch of functions that get there current state up, down, held. But I'm not sure if this is redundant or not.

>when you discover things you shouldn't be able to do

you missed my point

you can have an interesting loop JUST in setting up the traps and checking in on them, without needing a combat system. so the question is, how deep is the pre-combat portion, and how deep is the combat

realtime or turnbased? do you want the combat to be instanced or happen in the overworld?

oh i get your complaint, it's more like there are 2 loops, the pre-combat and the combat itself, my point was you choose how deep each one is,

I thought about dropping the combat in favor of just setting up traps but I can't really figure out how to make enough game play just off setting up traps alone.

Honestly Unity really messed up their branding. They made it so shitty low quality amateur games are forced to have their logo. While professional well made games can pay to have their logo removed.

There's no lack of knowledge, in fact it's the opposite.

Statistically speaking, a game made in Unity is likely to be trash. It's always funny when I pirate Unity games and I can always hear my GPU fan getting loud (something which shouldn't be he happening with unimpressive run of the mill Unity trash).
