What is your dream game /v/?
Are you working on it?
>>318733284
fucking hell that looks bad
TELL ME WHAT CODE I SHOULD START WITH IT AND I'LL DO IT RIGHT NOW
FUCK
My dream game requires a skillset unattainable by myself within my lifetime.
>>318733284
>What is your dream game /v/?Spore ;_;
My dream game is an open-world stealth game where you have at least one 'home base' where you are safe and can tend a garden. Like Watch_Dogs but with better writing and a garden, or like The Phantom Pain but with better writing and better interactivity on the Support platform.
I'm not working on it because holy shit, how am I gonna one-man-army a game like that? But I'm sort of interested in making a game. Pixels and small scales aren't bad.
What is this and how can i pay lots of money for it?
A game that takes a dead serious look at life and struggles during the zombie apocalypse.
But TLOU came and took care of that for me.
So now, it's simply a great, truly open world sengoku era game, with elements from Way of the Samurai, Tenchu, and a bit of Bushido Blade thrown in.
As a side note, I am working on a game, but it has nothing to do with either zombies or samurai.
>>318733412

>>318733284

Yes, trying to.
>>318733376

Why not just make a linear 2D stealth game like Boktai, and just keep expanding on one huge level until you don't want to anymore?
>>318734178
It's a drawing, so yeah, he could.
>>318734685
Why doesn't he just make Boktai?
Fuck, I'd play it.
>>318733284
I will, eventually.
My dream game is, in a nutshell, the biggest, most in-depth hacking simulator ever made. Will make it some day, for now I'm working on something else.
>>318733284
My dream games would be AAA licensed games so no, I'm not. :/

I still can't even finish this image, let alone start making a game. And there's no way I could possibly work on this.
I won't work on my absolute dream game until I get better at programming, and probably have some form of a budget. I am making a game though, but at a snails pace. Drawing things when I can't draw and have no concept of good coloring is hard.

I would fucking pre-order that game the second it went up for sale if it came to reality.
>>318733284
>What is your dream game /v/?
Heh. I've posted this before but;
MMO
Low-fantasy
Airships, someone along the lines of the imperial ones from skies of arcadia.
Varrying sizes, each size up needs more players to operate properly.
Id like to see mechanics from eve in there with territorial control and if you lose your airship its fucking gone.
There would be proper on foot combat, some gunpower use but not tons. Mainly for floating isle and continent skirmish, but most importantly, boarding a ship.
Like a small skirmish ship could be single captain, but a dreadnought you would need a captain, navigator, a few gunners, an engineer, etc. I think you could fill the rest of the slots with npcs that you hire for crew.
I think magic could be worked in, but somewhat like SWG jedi, a long fucking task just to use it, so they would rare but could "enhance" a part of a ships system, some do some minor stuff in combat. Magic would be stronger the closer you get to the center of the map, weaker the farther you are.
Ideally, you would need to obtain resources and trade, so some rival npc factions could be a decent start. Near the center of the map would be a large foggy patch of no-mans land, where vision is limited, forcing very close range airship battles. Islands would shift in here from downtime to downtime, making them interesting on-foot dungeons to explore. Some big beasties to fight in an airship would be rad as fuck too.
just a dream, but I draw so I could do concepts for fun if i wanted

Sounds like some faggot shit.
I was working on it for a decent amount a while ago but my only tool was gamemaker and this was when there was a lot of shame in working with that. I should try again now that everyone seems to be fine with making gamemaker games as long as they turn out good.
The idea was born from the game "Lifeline". I wanted to make a similar concept. Aliens invade a space station and you are in the position of a person who for security reasons monitored all the going ons in the station through your computer. Instead of their crappy voice recognition system though, I would have you guide multiple people by giving them commands as if through an instant messenger system. Would have to warn them of threats, control functions of the station like doors, lights, ect. Could converse with characters, solve some puzzles based on their descriptions of whats in a room and stuff like that.

>>318737251
Unless you're out to make a template platformer or space ship shooter, there is minor amounts of programming to learn to really flesh out your idea beyond the built in functionality. That being said it is very minor compared to real programming and as long as your idea is realistic instead of some stupidly ambitious giant scale mess, it will make your job as a designer mostly just a matter of art assets and putting the time into design.

>>318733284
my dream game is a community focused mmo with lots of grind,procedurally generatedmonsters and equipment, and lots of systems in place to create drama between guilds/factions. ideally everyone should share the same city and different guilds would play different parts in the city's functions. like guild 1 would control the metal and magic jewels supplies, while guild 2 would control the metal weapon crafting market by having most of the high level metal weapon crafters in the city. then guild 1 and 2 could try to kill each other in a resource war (guild 1 can prevent guild 2 from getting raw materials for their crafting, but guild 2 can stop producing high level metal magic weapons for the city), or this situation would generate some drama that would end up bubbling up to drama between the factions of guild 1 and 2 and so on

>>318733284
If by dream game you mean game literally thought up due to a dream then I dreamt about an online survival horror game thatwasnt shit
It out in a basement and there were weird japanese horror game like monsters throughout. For some reason it felt like I had done it before and knew all the monsters mechanics. The only ones I remember were a manniquen like humanoid that seemed to be the generic enemy type, and a weird as fuck amorphous worm thing that disguised it's self as a trapped human. I eventually climbed a ladder up to the single roomed main floor and just walked out.
It turned out to just be a shack along a trail in the forest, and other players were outside fighting over shit. Woke up right after seeing them.
The dream's been kinda haunting me and now I cant stop thinking up ideas for it.Too bad I cant program
>>318733284
I'm developing the story for the comic I want to do more than anything, but I'd love to make a game for it. It'd be a turn-based isometric RPG with overworld platforming elements (Super Mario RPG), with a lightning fast turn-based battle system requiring action commands.

I like cute and warm (?) games. My ideal game would be something like that. Probably a cute boy walking around and exploring beautiful landscapes and helping NPCs on quests. Maybe something in 3D with simple models but a nice selection of colors could work.
I'm making a really simple platformer just because I learned how to animate a few months ago and it has something to do with that idea. I've been thinking about learning to make 3D models, but learning how to draw is my main priority for now.

RTS about pirates (or maybe space) where your bases where you build, recruit, etc are a few massive mobile ships. Most of the map is empty water with resources scattered around islands and such.

>>318740393
No, anon, it hasn't.
Most shitty pixel indie games are 3D environments with ultra low resolution textures.
I mean legitimate pseudo-3D environments, and all enemies are sprites. The type where enemies in the distance are a tiny ass blob of pixels because their resolution keeps decreasing as you get further away.

>>318733284
I've had several ideas floating around but right now I'd really like to just have a really cool werewolf game where you do werewolf things in an open-world where you're given a lot of freedom of action. Modded Skyrim is pretty much as close as it gets for me, but I think it'd be pretty cool to do one of those total conversion mod things when I learn more about fucking with the game that build on the kind of stuff I want to put in it. Doing something like that sounds easier and more feasible than trying to build something from scratch, don't it?
>>318733413
Not with that attitude
>>318736305
The story is the easy part. Start learning code, animation, modelling, game design. etc
Sounds cool man, keep it up. Girl 5 is best girl.
>>318740772
If somebody wanted that, they'd make a Doom WAD or Douk whatshisfile like everybody else does. Check out WGRealms 2 for example. And I don't want to make a game for profit, that's just haram.
>>318740952
I've just started on code, will be using my first shitty game to work on art and animation, already have thought a shit ton on the game design concepts, and modelling will come later.
>>318739426
I am, it just happens I also write music to go with my ideas.
note to all beginner : there's no tool that is really easier than the other, a game isn't "press button, get game", you need to have the logic in your brain to put the piece together, no program does it for you. If you are uneasy with logic, just mod games, don't make them.
>>318733284

I get nice ideas for concept art, too, I even get some out from time-to-time, but then I spend a year nitpicking it and telling myself it isn't at all good. even if it's just a concept.
>>318743603
>Fighter
>MMO
>150+ classes
What the fuck
>>318743652
I understand how you feel. I usually just write it out and do my minor revisions, then just leave it as it is before I let other people read them. I know that I'll never be happy, but if other people say it's good then I just take their word for it.
>>318743739
I think people is the biggest factor, I don't have any PEOPLE I can show my concepts or share my thoughts with, none that will actually give me some feedback. Indifference is the worst thing in the world for any work, so getting it from even close friends just makes me want to give up on everything.

Dude. Make a smaller version of the game. Focus on making the game mechanic work, create the story, the aesthetic, establish the themes you want, maybe develop an interesting and original character that the story will be based around.
Then release the game. If people like it then you can use the popularity to recruit people, or possibly hire them with kickstarter money for a sequel that is the game you really want.

>>318743840
Do you have parent? Siblings? Even coworkers would work. Just have them critique it. If they say it's good then just believe them. You could even ask for advice here. Just be prepared for someone to roast you with a review. I let my buddy read the one story I actually planned on really doing something with and he basically told me to nuke it and start over. No one else including the class i wrote it for gave me negative feedback, so it broke my spirit to continue it. I know I should though.
>>318744136
I'm not gonna show my mom what I make, she'd either not care or do the parental "oh you're so talented" thing that I hate.
Part of it is me, and I know it's me, I don't show stuff to people because I have the strong feeling that they won't care, because the rare times I give it a try, they don't care.
I feel like I need to find more people like me, schlubs who don't know what to do with all their stupid ideas, someone I can get a good volley of thoughts going with. I work really poorly alone, I've found.

So just make shitty programmer art.
You'll never finish the game anyway.
I have a few ideas kicking around and know how to code/draw at least decently, I just never have the free time to start anything. Or more accurately I don't want to sacrifice the bits of free time I have for playing video games in order to work on one.
I've been telling myself I should start though. even if I just do a little something every once in a while. Maybe closer to Christmas.
>>318744279
I show them to my mom all of the time because she's readily available, and if it sucks then no one else has to know. She reads many books and catches grammatical errors and sentences that make little sense.
I'm friends with some writers, which is where the roast came from. He give his honest opinion, and it made me rethink some things. I'm telling you to visit draw threads. From what I hear certain boards like /co/, and/mlp/have threads dedicated to improving your art. You could try befriending a trip or namefag there.
>>318744418
Collab man. If you can program, then just do all of that, then find a good artist, or even a writer.
Yes, and its doing great. I just have to comission an artist to fix the art.

>>318733284
My dream game sounds pretty generic. But give it a read and rate it, please:
It's a 2D Metroid style game. Except the thing that makes it unique, is that you have a jet pack that allows you to fly. So the levels are quite open. I imagine the faster you fly, the more the screen would pull out, so you can see your surroundings. A lot of mechanics and gimmicks will be built around the propulsion of the jetpack.
There are enemies, but you can't kill them. You can only get around them, use non-lethal force(stun gun), or dispatch them by tricking them to fall for an environmental hazard.
There would of course be many items you find to give you new abilities, and upgrade your equipment. I want the focus to be the complexity in platforming, and executing skillful flights. With a world open enough to not only encourage exploration, but also capable of being sequence broken.
Of course, there would be a real sequence. With cutscenes and all the production that makes it feel like an adventure. But with enough knowledge, skill, and curiosity you can do all kinds of things out of order.
Graphics would be pixelart. The good kind.

I know, I know. I have an idea for how the physics should work. But honestly, I don't know until it's tested. And I can't program for shit, so I can't test it. But I really do feel like I can make good flight physics for 2D.

Hey /AGDG/ how's it going sorry for the repost haha
My dream game is a fighting game that I've been designing for quite awhile now. I use the word "design" in the loosest terms. It's mainly just concept art, hud design, 3D environments, documents. It's hard to work on something like this when you're in your first year of college.Especially if you're in animation. It's fun, but fuck there's so much work that it drains you. I often wonder if my art is even good enough too. There's high standards in this industry
I'm still gonna stick with it though. Education is education. Ever since I was little, I dreamed of making games or working at Nintendo or something. It's gonna happen eventually. That drive always keeps coming back to me

Just follow a bunch of 2D unity tutorials. Programming is easier to learn when you are working with something visual... like a game.
In other words, dont wait until you are a master programmer to start making a game.
