Well? Where's your game?You are making one, right? Better show /v/ some progress. You don't wanna get sealed back in the /vg/ schizo failjerk, do you?
>>748201372I'm too dumb and lazy to continue my game, much less finish it : (
coding in new backgroundhttps://dead-imagination.itch.io/dance-of-elementsDid a big update recently, Light and Dark Elements are playable now. Looking for feedback if anyone has the time
>>748204346try something smaller, thenwhat's got you stuck?>>748204443damn that looks good, keep it up
>>748201372>finally got big objects to collided properly>it show that my "objects standing on each other" logic is fucked way more than I thoughtFUCK THIS CHAIN OF BUGS, I WAS ABOUT TO ADD AI TWO MONTHS AGO WHEN WILL IT FUCKING STOP.
>>748201372I haven't made much progress since doing the demo, I have to work on adding a new enemy and redo some visuals.At least my dev Twitter account has been growing a lot lately.
>>748206150Work-life balance problems, I've been tired+mopey a lot the past few months and haven't been spending my freetime in ways that are productive. About scaling down, what I'm doing isn't that ambitious so it won't help. I've been wanting to make a bare-bones 2.5d sandbox "game"(tech-demo) and put it up somewhere as freeware on itch. By bare-bones I've got an explicit target of a handful of enemies (5-6), a proper player-controller (including ui and inventory management stuff), and that's it. I did the stuff I thought would be more technical like terrain generation and pathfinding at the start and those have been done for a long time now (I had a lot of fun with playing with WFC and HPA* respectively), but I stopped at that point and before I knew it like ten months have passed. I'll just have to grit my teeth and do the work instead of comforting myself by complaining.
>>748206885cute meltie.if it takes you two months to figure out collisions chill out, it'll be a while before you can make a **good** game.
My skill tree's roots grow deep. 700+1 nodes, and each one can be upgraded for a maximum total of 1402 activations to max out the whole thing. Not sure if I want to allow people to do that or cap it at some point and make people commit to a build, but it's really fun to look at. https://files.catbox.moe/cht0fp.mp4>>748207345Hang in there. The easiest way to get things moving again is to just open your project, save one thing, test it, and close it. You'll feel that urge to keep going, but fight it - That way you'll be excited to do more tomorrow, and the next day. Take it in increments, and remember to build discipline instead of fishing for motivation.
>>748208367>if it takes you two months to figure out collisions chill outOh no.It's been two months that I keep finding shit, fixing it, then finding other shit in semi-unrelated part of the code whose brokenness was hidden by the other bug and/or just never came up with until I setup some weird situation trying to debug something else.It's classic debugging work, it's just that I decided to leave no bugs behind before tackling AI, and under-estimated how long getting a 99.9% purified codebase would take.>make a **good** gameI can confidently say it's going to be a game so shit it will make QWOP look like it wasn't a shitpost.
All media have become boring after I got AI within my fingertips.You can't compete with stuff that's made 100% for the consumer.
>>748208427Thanks, I'll keep on struggling. Did you compose the music? It's great. A big Christmas tree looks the best when all its branches are lit up. A cap's probably necessary for build differentiation but you could also add some method to remove/make it more flexible as a reward or something.
>>748209142Nah, that's from Rusty on PC98. I listen to music like that while I dev.I'll probably have some way to respec with partial refund... Making a CRPG and hoping to keep it a little oppressive because that's fun to me.
I made it so that if you rewind to a previous loop, it won't erase every future loop but instead just erases everything beyond where you rewinded back to. So when you finish the earlier loop it'll keep most of your progress if you didn't change much. But if you change how the loop ends, such as by going through a different time gate, future loops are lost.I've already got a headache trying to think of how to explain it, but it's such a massive quality of life improvement that I think it's worth the confusion. There's always so many complaints about these sorts of past self recording mechanics in puzzle games (it's the #1 complaint I see about The Talos Principle), but I think I've given the player enough tools where it shouldn't be frustrating.>>748208427I love the look of the 2 color palette blocks, or whatever you call that ZX Spectrum style. And the music is great too, since it's stereo FM I assume it's a YM2608? I recognize a lot of the sounds as being used in KAJA's PMD driver. I'd love to get the patches if you have them - I programmed in proc. gen music for my game and part of my sound system includes a full YM2608 emulator.>>748209563Ah nevermind lol. At least I know where to look.
>>748209731You animegirl face really need "some" reaction to pushing buttons, crossing doors, etc.Having it be just a looping gif that take screen space for nothing feel weird.
>>748209731cool mechanics, I think the most important change is a graphics facelift. maybe a scifi lab setting with scifi UI, not win98. it looks bland right now.
>>748201372the fuck do you care, nigger? you don't fucking play videogames to begin with, stop being a piece of shit nigger
>>748208427Why? When there's that much choice you just know it'll be gay incremental increases to stats or abilities as opposed to being new shit that really changes the way you play.Maybe I just lack the build crafting autism to give a single fuck about a billion nodes ala path of exile, vs just having a select few spells like in diablo 1The music is awesome though.
>>748210027Slow day on /agdg/?
>>748209901She's usually talking in levels so she's not always staring but giving her reactions to the gameplay to fill in the gaps is a good idea, I agree.>>748209935Yeah I don't have much of an instinct for visual design. Part of the difficulty is that the levels have to be incredibly simple visually for a lot of the mechanics to work, even having held cubes rotate along with the players would ruin a lot of puzzles. It's also why nothing in the main view is color coded. If there's one thing I got lucky on it's that nobody ever looks away from the minimap, and the minimap looks decent enough.
>>748210108It supersedes traditional level-up stuff. The initial 12 nodes are major weapon and magic types, so you can immediately choose if you want to keep committing to that direction to strengthen weapons you like, or explore magic (pic rel) - You also have teammates who develop along predetermined paths which you can use to preview skills. The initial scenario starts you with a nearly full squad who all use different builds so you can get a clue what to develop towards. The incremental bits are mostly best thought of as bonuses as you move between skill nodes, which do dramatically change how you play. Interrupt skills like the combat roll here are a great example of game changing mechanics you can add. I get it, though. All of this sprung up from a traditional SMT style 5 points per level. All of this is wildly self-indulgent.

Ill preface this by saying its 95% clanker code so you can ignore if you loathe the thinking machines.Wrote out this exhaustively detailed plan for essentially Star Wars Battlefront with Empire at War mechanics grafted on while I was violently ill to see how bad of a dude this Clod guy is. Turns out hes pretty good and did a prototype in a couple hours with minimal fuckups. Its basically EAW's galactic conquest but you can also fight like its BFII(1), with some features they couldnt cram into the PS2's 32mb of RAM. Generic riflemen and AT guys spawn from their own ticket pool but vehicles and special troops work like EAW units, just what you built and brought. You can go into a birds eye view and order your units around, which actually makes a difference against the CPU. Space battles are about as deep as either of the games I'm cribbing from but you can captain any ship, which is pretty neat to watch. Working on map blockouts right now, and replacing the funny little pillmen and brick tanks with actual models, but Ive got to come up with some faction aesthetics. Star wars gets a lot of deserved shit but god damn they nailed the production design.

>>748219280All before the very end.
>>748217152I believe I checked it a few months ago and there was a guy just spamming everyone with AI images calling every post a luddite. It's just so tiresome I just wanted to see game dev progress and ideas.
>>748201372Progress: TriangleApparently SDL3-shadercross changed its api calls meaning the only tutorials for SDL3_GPU are already out of date. Idk I should've just learned OpenGL
>>748219820OpenGL isn't too bad to learn, the only problem is that there's a ton of deprecated crap that you shouldn't use. I'd recommend giving it a try, the current game I'm working on uses GLFW+OpenGL but I wish it was SDL3+OpenGL, so in my opinion you're in a good spot to build your game from. You're even using the callback interface so your game will probably run better than 99% of the crap that comes out nowadays.
ZAMNbest pose to weight paint the butt/crotchnot allowing mode change directly between weight paint and pose is a travesty.
>>748220918you can select bones in weight paint mode by holding Alt while clicking, and will be able to move them like in pose
I honestly gave up on making a creative and soulful game. The gaming audience is full of retarded sheep and all they want is slop. Just give it to them bro. Make the most soulless and cynical game you can and get paid
>>748221069heh, I haven't even tried it.>The fucking frenchman didn't include butt bones because it's a mannequin>I forgot>it's clearly affecting my ability to deform nicelyfuck me.
>>748220635I'll try to stick it out with SDL3+SDL3_GPU for a little longer. The cross-platform/multiple rendering backends are just too appealing to me right now. If I can just get the all the boilerplate out of the way and abstract it I can put it behind me. OpenGL looks nice to work with, it has much more documentation and friendly tutorials. So far the regular SDL3 api looks a lot more straight forward than the gpu shit, I would recommend it.

>>748222176Eh dunno, I was more thinking about some straight, nice, actually happy game. Not streamer bait "PattPatt Explore the Planned Parenthood Basement".... would definitively be way less work and more money tho.>>748222207Good school.Also it's Fredd*i*. Frederica is a girl.
I've been wanting to start a youtube for a while, but I'm too lazy to record 30 second webms for 4chan let alone 5-10 minutes for a youtube video.>>748221880agree with other anon, is it consistent in world space?not sure your engine, but in Unity the way I achieve more stable wobble lines is with either triplanar projection or a Texture3D. screen space displacement can make the lines a bit distracting when panning or moving the cameralooks good either way
>>748201372I have been working on my Super Pang inspired game. Now I'm working on basic graphics while learning about shaders
>>748223351> Super Pang inspired game.Looking at the original, the balls' physics was way different and way more predictable/controllable than what you are showing.Is this intended?
>>748223351WHAT THE FUCKI didn't know bubble trouble was a clone.
>>748223692Yes, I want part my spin to the formula to be the bubble physics, they are way more unpredictable but to remedy some of that I added a parry and diagonal shooting, said that, I still want to tweak the physics and add more types of bubble

>>748222135>>748222528its unreal and it is screen space so it does move but I don't think its really noticeable, even when your trying to notice it you barely see it, it does need some tweaks as objects in the distance warp a bit to much and lines that are close and parallel warp the same which looks odd
>>748224134>but I don't think its really noticeableInstall OBS and make a webm.This kind of effects, when not spacetime stable, tend to be *really* fucking noticeable and push people away even if the effect is small enough that the average gamer can't pinpoint exactly what's wrong.

I feel like a fucking moron, but also, this feels like when someone trains in an anime with waited training clothes. I was trying to get 60FPS while accidentally using the experimental and very shitty Godot DirectX renderer, and, for the most part, I succeeded. Now when switching back to Vulkan, my game runs really well ha ha.

>>748224497your 3D models are improving, I see
i might be going too far with mechanics
im so fucking scared i dont know where to start with godot i dont know what to do
>>748224497Optimization work is never lost. Now you have room to dump more shit into your levels.That said, there is still something very wrong if you got a difference that large between DirectX and Vulkan, unless you were targeting DirectX 4 or something.This kind of situation generally mean you have an actual perf bottleneck somewhere, that the API *for now* silently handle for you - but it's always dicey to rely on API/compiler automated optimizations because those tend to break on the randomest change.

>>748225130Open your AI platform and explain the game you're trying to create, then say you want to make a proof of concept and have it walk you through the process, that way you can learn on your own pace and ask for clarifications for concepts you don't know or when you get stuck.

I was making one but I got deppressed and dropped it.It was called Silvaluna, a puzzle game about the sage Silvaluna (a moomin-like character) searching for his sons and daughters using his magic to clear obstacles.It was a mix of Golden Sun dungeons and lemmings.

>>748231467I recommend getting rid of the portraits. Not that they're bad (they're not great either), but because you'd recapture the visceral fantasy of things like gen 1 Pokemon graphics much better. People's brain imagine characters much better if they can't seem them, and think about your game more. It's a trade-off with accessibility though, but i still recommend it with this style. Since your portraits aren't world-class i think you have better chances to look higher value without them.
>>748231589And that's why I made it a racoon.
>>748231807still not a fan but it's a major improvement
>>748231467NeatI guess if I were to put on my critique hat, I might say that the hook comes a bit late in the trailer. I guess I just imagine people not sitting that long in until they've made up their mind, you know? Bigger studio games can wait because they've already got an audience but I think when it comes to indie, you gotta really grab them by the dick fast
>>748229836I keep seeing other time travel puzzle games and get worried I've been beaten to the punch but none of them fully commit to doing a full paradox-free causal loop so I'm safe for now. Actually, the only other game I've seen do what I'm trying was another anon do a speedrun based game but that was over a year ago. I'm not entirely convinced AI could recreate the mechanics without a shit ton of wrangling so I should be safe for now.>>748231025Cool your jets buddy, she's an AI that's classier than that.

We're very close to releasing so right now I'm just testing the whole thing, I'm like halfway through by now. I think the coder has only needed to fix a handful of bugs so far, so that's good.

>>748238061No, it's green cause it's poison gas. Otherwise we'd have made the gas brown or Wolverine blue.
>>748237486It depends on a game. If it's a phone game and/or there are hundreds of characters it's kinda ok. It's bad, but you can hide one poop in the river of shitORYou are in a hurry and making a demo/vertical slice with a hard deadline, then you can always make dozens these low effort "single texture for the whole game" models and move on to the important parts and if it's a fun game in the end, you can always go back and swap models for something better, or even get a side bitch 3D artist, who would fix your shit for a bowl of rice and name in the credits.

>>748240586Nah, he has an art direction and I think it makes sense. When the ship is touching down, you can see the area has more colour. Makes it easy to differentiate what is important and what falls into the background, otherwise it might look too busy.
Someone, gimme a stupid game idea that should take a week to make. (I also can't decide between Godot, or raw OpenGL and SDL. I've got some base level knowledge in both)Every time I think of an idea, I either get too invested in it, and scope creep it into something way too big before I've even really gotten started, or I just don't see a lot of value in the idea, and can't motivate myself to do it.I'm also thinking of just trying to make my "Dream Game(tm)" as a series of progressing ideas. So, the game in my head will come eventually, but for now I just make a bare bones version with just a cursory attempt at being the final product. Slap a bow on it, then start working on Dream Game 2 which is marginally closer to the actual idea I've got mulling about in my head.
>>748240371Didn't your game do well? You can't afford 12k?
Just added a patrol system to my enemy AI, the fundamental systems for the AI are finished so now I am moving onto the inventory.Honestly I'm not sure if anyone will even buy or play this game at this point.

>>748241720Two weeks of testing wasn't enough given the scope of the game, which meant it'd be significantly more expensive. 12k would be more than half the budget of the original game, just for a short round of QA testing.
>>748241891>>748241963now ya done it.I'm going to do something like this where you control a flying saucer as an opposing ship shoots lasers at you. You have to get hit by these lasers to collect energy to spawn your troops to go fight the enemy. How many lasers you collect before sending out a troop determines the strength and speed of it, but they can all still be destroyed by the ship's lasers anyway.
>>748241963The technology just isn't there yet
>>748231539>Plus you're retarded, whenever a game with an ounce of soul gets made, people suck it up.LOL no. The only sovlful games that actually sell are stuff like edmund mcmillen games and blue prince, which happen like only once per year.and for every sovlful game, you can count FAR more slop shits like ball x pit, its probably a 1:10 ratio at least
