How's that game coming along, anon?
very good, but i need beta testing
Disgaea clone still on the way. will spend a week putting documentation on paper. though cause it's a mess in my head at the moment.
>>332316845
Is there an engine to make this kind of game?
Concept art phase.
I just started digital painting, I know it sucks.
>>332316645
How're those pubes coming along, OP?
>>332316754
>just a gender slider
>not a gender cube
>>332316645
I'll do it.
>>332316754
pretty good
>>332316754
TRIGGERED
>>332318062
No, I'm using Unity. I'm a dev it's not a problem
>>332316538
LEAVE ME ALONE!
i want to procrastinate in peace
>>332318450
>>332318610
before you say something, do you like the monster movies?
>>332318784
Monster movies? Like black lagoon or kaiju? Or horror movie? Cause I like all of them.
>>332316754
I hope you're making a slide, and only including two options on it as a joke
cause if that is supposed to represent genderfluidity, you need to elaborate, or else all the tumblrtarts will get triggered
>>332318283
Hard to say anything when it's just in concept art
>>332318962
Of course it's a joke
Is anyone else writing their game in C++ with a lib instead of an engine?
>>332318910
>>332318784
talking about a famous horror movie in the 80´s
Got the game a title screen
>>332319410
Looks cute. Could use more shading on the body, though. And maybe a small round shadow on the ground.
I've started learning game maker a few days ago, it's pretty fun
only thing I really need to know for my dream game(except net connectivity) is how to make worms-type destructible terrain in GM
>>332319240
Yes, I like monster movies. In general at least.
>>332320029
you are gonna like itbecause is about a misterious thing
>>332316754
Make it scale from 'MALE' to 'male' in the middle and then from 'female' to 'FEMALE'
I wish I wasn't an idiot with numbers and shit. After a while my mind gets all boggles and they all just start looking like a jumble of indecipherable letters. And I'm shit at music.
I mean I can do art pretty well. And write too. Once my finals are done I'm going to give a crack at low-poly modelling and maybe try giving a crack at making a Banjo-Kazooie romhack.
I just feel like a one-trick pony only being able to do art, though. I can write but that's not that integral.
Anything else besides modelling I should consider working on, /v/?
>>332316538
haven't done shit in about a month or two, neither has my programmer
kind of wondering if I should just nerf the project, finish it, and move to a new project
Working on more dialog stuff and item getting.
Have to make the inventory hud. Equip screen is already mostly done.Which I'm gonna do covertly while at work.
>>332320142
Cool. What's the gameplay going to be like?
>>332320528
I like it. Looks like a pretty LISA.
This is pedantic and you shouldn't give a shit about it but I have to say it: I think it's Cup o' Joe.
Is unity the future of flash games? The web plug in is certainly more stable and flexible. I wouldn't mind if it did take over considering the tools are also free.
>>332320539
i first, iwas planning like a steathl model, and i want to make it, but is really hard.
make the thing is like making gods wosrt nightmare.
the beta testing is only this
i need ideas from /v/ for the thing.
i was begginign this proyect like 2 moths, and i have the humand models, but the thing model no.
help me /v/
>>332320791
Like you want an idea for a scary monster? I'd like to think I'm half-decent at creature design. If that is what you're asking. What do you want it to convey?
What category should it fall in? What should it's 'feel' be? Cryptid? Alien? Demon? Mutant? Something else I can't think of right now?
>>332320528
steam release when
>>332320770
Unity's WebGL is still pretty crappy and generates huge builds.
Phaser is probably closer to being the new Flash.
>>332319913
Thanks anon!
I unfortunately can't really edit the title screenbecause it was actually drawn for me by a friend.
>>332321376
Then don't worry about it. It's not a big deal. And most people don't stare at the title screen.
Most of it looks fine but when the little white guy is in the battle and isn't attacking it looks like he's holding his sword the wrong way. Like the edge of the blade isn't facing forward.
>>332321041
is the thing moster from the thing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Thing_(1982_film)
modeling this monster is hard, but i need /v/´s help to find a good skin and a re-desing
>>332321754
please keep it. please.
>>332321681
Oh shit you're right
Let me fix that
>>332321852
oooooooooooh. the thing. the movie. damn. im dumb.
You want a sort of redesigned thing? Hm. Body horror is hard to do.
>>332318283
Looks like "Sir You are being Hunted"
>>332318283
Is it a horror farming sim?
>>332322079
like a desig for the thing, give me ideas anon
>>332322315
>Is it a horror farming sim?
How the fuck do you farm horrors?
>>332319063
yep
glfw, physfs, png and opengl so far
>>332322785
hi neo-v
Does some anon know of a good guide/site/book to begin with game maker and its language? Programming is completely alien to me and I do not know where to start. I heard that GM is the most approchable and I bought that Humble Bundle pack so it is my best bet.
Currently I am with a book called "GameMaker Language: An In-Depth Guide" but perhaps there is something better or more beginner friendly out there…
>>332319063
>with a lib instead of an engine
What do you mean?
Do you mean that you're making a game purely on your knowledge of C++ without using another engine (like unity or unreal), or do you mean something else?
>>332321338
HTML5 is shit for making games
>>332321754
the middle should be genderfluid
>>332322315
>>332322090
It's gonna be a western game, castlevania-like. Plot is a bit like hell on wheels but less realistic. Gonna have a faction system like fallout. It's really early though and I'm not the writer, it's exploration at this point still.
>>332322523
Cronenberg Lettuce
>>332322518
Well you want it human but only slightly. You can see a little bit of humanity in it but maybe one or two very prevalent features. Maybe the body shape. Maybe the skin and hair.
Then take a creepy animal. Maybe an opossum and exaggerate what makes it creepy and put the two together.
Something like pic related?
After watching those 3kliksphilips game dev diary stuff I really want to make a crappy multimedia fusion game with someone. Shame I don't have any programmer friends or anyone who would be interested in making one with me. I just wanna make neato games with anime girls and traps in it
>>332323253
>>332321754
The middle should say "C'mon, man. Don't be weird." and not let you continue until you change it.
>>332323009
This might or might not help you.

>>332323009
why do people keep asking for books to learn shit before they even open the program
open the damn program, poke around, and anything you don't get, google it
>>332323327
>castlevania-like
like modern castlevania? or metroidvania?
>>332323194
I agree. But as far as accessiblity goes it's the best considering everyone has a web browser already installed.
>>332323651
Anon, I opened the program and took a good look. And I tried using solely the defined events and actions of Game Maker. And even checked the code of some games that came with the pack. But when I try using the language… It is just like opening a book in a foreign language you do not understand a single word. One can poke around but there is a moment when it is better to learn something.
>>332323646
Thank you. I would take a look. Did you finish the course?
>>332324035
But not every browser comes with flash already installed. It's essentially the same thing as Unity, a proprietary plugin that lets you play games, only Unity is way more useful. HTML5 is too garbage and limited, it'll never catch on for games. Maybe VNs, but games aren't happening.
>>332323763
Metroidvania.
>>332320528
>Lisa with pretty graphics
I'm ok with this.
>>332324724
HTML5 games don't flash or any plugins, it's just javascript that runs in your browser and you don't need to install anything.
Unity's proprietary web plugin doesn't work anymore, it's all WebGL now. Same principle as HTML5, you don't need to install anything.
Phaser just has smaller build sizes.
I kind of want to try making games but I'm really intimidated.
How long and how much work will it take for me to actually start being able to make something useful or real?
I ask because I have a part time job and I'm not sure what kind of time investment I'm looking at here.
>>332327635
>I ask because I have a part time job and I'm not sure what kind of time investment I'm looking at here.

>>332325687
Wowee thanks.
I'm trying to get better at visual consistency, it sure is a pain.
>>332320695
Looking at vintage signs, its actually apparently Cup'pa Joe or Cuppa Joe.
Huh.
Well either way I may just go with coffee even though that sounds boring.
>>332327635
It all depends on your work ethic and scale. This took me less than a year when this image was made.
