Style will be similar, but improved. It's still going to be a monster catching game, but legally distinct. I can't reuse pokemon anyway since I need a fundamental redesign to make it work with the different set of mechanics.

Should I really make a pokemon fangame or just a distinct monster catching rpg (I'm not the johto webm guy, his videos just got me motivated to want to either make a pkmn fangame or my own monster catcher with blackjack and hookers, but I can't decide which)

what are some good books about shader/graphics programming

I'd make a "legally distinct" monster catcher rpg, but I'm not sure how to change the gameplay from the "pokemon formula" to make it so distinct. Like, the mechanics I'm interested in monster catchers for all seem pretty tied to Pokemon, and I'm afraid to step on Nintendo's territory -- you've seen how mental they can get. And as for alternative mechanics, shit like digivolving and what MMBN does aren't really what I want to do

>>103095717
Maybe Monster Rancher (but with computer files instead of CDs?) or SMT (I dunno how that would work in a traditional Pokemonlike though) for alternative mechanics on how to obtain a monster but other than that IDK

>>103095742
Based. Since pokeballs are patented I have to go the more interesting taming route where you convince monsters to join. You will effectively play the role of a biologist and have to actually observe everything around you to figure it out. I doubt people will have the attention span for that though, so progression will have to be tight to not fall apart.

I want my art/graphical style (pixel art or hand drawn? Low poly or CGI-tier?), sound/music style (chiptune music or SNES music? Or high-quality DAW output?), and gameplay "perspective" (2D or 3D? If 2D, Isometric or top down?) to all be consistent with eachother and have a good balance between eachother. I.E I don't want to have an art style and sound style that don't mix with eachother, i.e full 3D with dhiptunes. But what styles should I use? The hard part is always deciding things...

>>103096131
Isometric is only good for either pixelart or those nice looking borderless low poly models

>>103095620
Cast a wider net for your inspirations. If other monster collectors don't give anything, look at RPGs as a whole. Then at strategy games, adventure games, and so forth. Maybe look into actual animal husbandry, or the the history of agriculture, or whatever.

>>103095659
>Monster catcher rpg where the monsters are the one catching humans.

I saw that once, the "monsters" were obscenely sexed up women. It was abanondend before every getting anywhere.

>>103096131
Pick the ones you're good at. Sit down and draw something in the different art styles. Figure out how long you take, how pleasant the result is and how much you enjoy doing it. Then do the same for music, levels, etc.
When you can't decide on one category, go with whatever supports the other ones.

It can look fairly pleasing depending on the overall artstyle, I'd take that over generic pixelshit any day of the week

Let's say I want to do isometric with a graphical style similar to any isometric GBA game (i.e MMBN, FFTA, etc).
Should I:
>do actual isometric 2D pixel art and make a 2D engine
>do isometric 2D pixel art but give it modern lighting, reflections, etc (but make it per pixel and render at a low resolution so the effects don't look so out of place)

That might me it. It's like the trick where you make a character that's dangerously close to a real life person, so you add details like said character having a small dick to discourage suing.

>>103096840
It depends on your level design.
True 2D isometric is pretty easy IF
>you don't have lots of elevation (think Diablo)
>if you do have elevation, it's extremely discrete (think FFT) -- this will lead to "blocky" movement/design
I did an old-school Syndicate style engine. If you played Syndicate, there was some transitional elements like stairs that exist "between" layers. Those caused massive edge cases that were a nightmare to deal with (even in the original game there were bugs around this).

>>103097166
>It depends on your level design.
I'm one of the two guys ITT planning to make a monster catcher rpg FWIW, so level design will be somewhat similar to Pokemon ig. The battle "scene" will also be isometric.
>True 2D isometric is pretty easy IF...
So should I just do true 2D isometric? And make the environment blocky?

Place the taller objects at a lower grid position, and with sorting based on the y-position. If using grid-movement, just consume the grid location. If using free-movement then collision should just be at the grid position in math, or you could use mask collision but that should be worse than the former.

So, I kinda want to make certain game, but I don't know if this even proper gameplay.

Essentially player is a movie producer, but the player focuses on macro and trying to figure out a winning pattern with hidden stats.
I.e players select actors to different stats, but those actors have hidden stats.
Some actors are suited for lead/support/villain role and perform better in different genres.

So, the player has to keep getting movies and hope they can find a profitable pattern.

Does count as a strategy game? Or is just a guessing game?

The "test" was to see how well a 3D model made of simple cubic shapes and simple 2-color textures would look as isometric pixel art.
I'd say it looks fine, but I'm currently ruminating about how this would work in the actual game, especially if I plan to make the world tile/grid-based. Regardless, here's the final model

>>103105725
Why don't you just do pixel art?

I'm of the opinion that making 3D objects and then rendering them is easier than drawing them by hand. but that's just me, an artlet.

>>103105805
Pixel art is the easiest video game art style bar none, especially that isometric Pokemon thing up there, you're out of your mind if you think it's easier to fuck around and make everything 3D

>>103105788
Fair enough, I guess it won't hurt to try.

>>103105725
Thank you for the update Chris. Best of luck as you continue to try different workflows.

>>103105845
There's isometric pixel art tutorials out there if you need help, it's a very systematic way of creating art, you don't need skill to do it

>>103105815
Nah you're just wrong. Setting up 3D anything is trivial even for someone who doesn't know any of the tools. Unless you're already an artist that knows pixel art it's not easier, not to mention the quality and consistency of rendered 3D vs someone who knows nothing about drawing

>durr the thing I know how to do is easy
And I'm telling you 3D rendering is easier.

>>103105901
even the simplest 3D pipeline has materials and shading and units you have to deal with, meanwhile pixel art is literally just drawing shit on a tilesheet, you can do it in MS paint
Rendering 2D iso might seem difficult but all you need to know is break things into cubic tiles and either place them in a grid or sort them

>>103105911
If you think 3D rendering is easier then you don't know how to do either of them, you haven't even tried

>>103105918
>>103105922
You seem to be conflating making the art with implementing it in an engine.

>>103105941
Both are easier
It might be hard to set up an existing engine to render 2D isometric but seeing this is /g/ I assume you're programming it yourself

>>103105815
Great looking pixel art is harder than doing 3d

Animation I mean. I clocked about a week per character with walk cycles, runs and attacks. Which is about what it would take me to build a hi poly, rig it and then animate it to do the same but it turns out it doesnt look good when you put it in low res so there's that

>>103106055
oh yeah, animation is obviously the big weakness of pixel art
it's good for games like side scrollers where you only have to animate one direction, or an iso 4-direction game where you only have to animate two

It might be because iso games have poor support in engines like Unity? I don't know, iso looks beautiful but it's rarely used in games

No it's not, isometric pixel art is very easy to do, simply being in isometric makes basic pixel art look appealing

What does your state management do ? And what are you gonna work on until early 2045 when you start the rendering?

How about this: For the objects and environment, what if I still did 3D but simply had everything be made up of quads and/or cubes? And maybe characters and interactible objects could still be sprites

Not sure if I should use SDL + OpenGL or raylib for my game. It's a 2d game with a top-down camera but I don't know the downsides of raylib. Any anons using raylib for their game can tell me the pros and cons of it?

>>103106903
stop treating opengl and raylib as mutually exclusive. raylib is a super easy to hack and change, it gets you started but you need to extend it depending on your use case.
raylib functions are literally stuff you'd write yourself if you want to use opengl. so if you don't want to start from scratch, use raylib as far as you can. you can mix raylib and normal opengl functions, change and extend.

>>103106903
to be real, internet resources is everything.
I doubt you will find a lot of permissive games in raylib with a permissive license (not L/GPL).
you probably will find a few games in SDL (at least in GPL).
But personally both raylib and SDL suck in terms of resourced, I genuinely think unity / godot / etc are all massively better options due to the resources (mainly unity, essentially 60% of the games on steam are made with it https://steamdb.info/tech/).

>>103107038
Resources as in copy and pasting code? Not really
You only need documentation + basic theoretical knowledge. Code examples might help you understand the latter better but those examples being in the exact language/library/engine you're using is not a strict requirement.

thanks for the response anon

>But personally both raylib and SDL suck in terms of resourced, I genuinely think unity / godot / etc are all massively better options due to the resources
Well yes but I want my game to run on low-spec shitboxes and old android versions, I don't think unity is good for it performance-wise. I'm also not sure if Unity 6 still supports android 4.1 or 4.4

Reading code is more important that writing code early on. It is a huge sign of skill to be able to read someone's code and integrate a feature / system from their code.
You also develop a sense of scrutiny in code, you will learn quickly the difference between a retard's code and actual well written code.
The problem is that tutorials are shitcode. Very easy to understand but very shitty in every single metric, I would not want to read a tutorial that actually did everything the way a real game dev would do things, you are just entering their world of insanity in that case, because every well made complex game is it's own world of code. Just get to the point with the least amount of code possible, that's a good tutorial.
The problem is that I started off with SDL back in 2012, which was when visual studio was not free (it was like $30), there were plenty of mingw tutorials, unity did not take up 60% of every game on steam (pretty sure only like 5-10 games came on steam every day), so I was not wrong from choosing SDL and mingw back then, but the problem now is where are the SDL (or raylib) tutorials? Who is using SDL? What games are made with SDL? They just don't exist, resources are everything.
I think will stick with SDL and opengl because of sunk cost, but in all honesty, unity requires just as much engine dev as writing code in SDL if you want your game to run on shit hardware, most unity devs are too lazy to care about shit hardware.
Sorry but nobody owns a android 4 phone because you can't even use a banking app or use tiktok on it, is chrome or youtube player even up to date? (wasn't there a exploit on old android phones that just pwn's you with zero clicks? or was that iphone?), people using old phones probably installed a rom on it to run a newer version of android so they can run actual apps (I have not even started talking about all the problems you will face trying to build your code in SDL compared to unity).
I hate unity for 2D but its ok

FUCKKKKKKKKKKKK ME I should've just used the hooks for debugging and I would've figured it out immediately.

well I have been using sdl for like a decade and my games don't exist, so...

SDL3 is honestly pretty good. I'd definitely consider skipping all the win32 api crap and just use that instead for my next project.

The advantage of doing a 3d model is that you can rotate the model and export pixel art for different directions with a simple script.
If you do the pixel art by hand, you'd have to draw that building 4 times

It becomes even better when you're doing characters and want 8 different directions, or if you want animations and you can export each frame of the animation with a script.

No one will play your game
No one will buy your game
No one will play the umpteenth 2D stardew valley esque clone with an inventory system and crafting

Just give up. Big youtubers with teams of people and ten thousand dollars have to shill their games under the guise of dev log, rig the algorithm just to get even a couple hundred thousand views and maybe 1000 people who will buy the game.

People spend over 3000 hours to code, learn blender for modelling, learn godot, learn whatever and they sell a game that 2 people buy.

What kind of game does not have an inventory system? Even fucking racing games have inventories.

>>103112953
I already know that. It's just so much more fun to dev only for myself and then hog all the fruits of my labor.

Oh, that's nice, anon, thanks for your hard work. Make that 16 /o/tists when it comes out.

>>103113238
Thanks, it's a long road but I do make progress regularly which makes it continue to be interesting figuring out how they made the game. I probably would never have attempted it except that they happened to include the debug symbols in their release executable. This makes the project way more doable. Currently having some fun with IDA which does a waaay better job than Ghidra with the Watcom compiler.
