Enough art fagging for a day.I got tired of trying to make an easter bunny and made a green poring instead.

The community has spoken, and this is what they had to say.
Reminder: Googum doesn't play video games. He just watches Anime/Netflix and uses a shit ton of if statements to get a semi-functional flash ad to look like a 'game'

Googum is a literally who, 'newgrounds' dev

How do you pronounce /agdg/? I normally say aggy-daggy
>>127466002
I actually have gotten to a point where I could just like make game in it but it's a pretty convoluted process.
>>127465969
>>127465910
>>127465910
Two failures of EPIC proportion.
How do we go from Hopoo and Vine to the likes of SlipStream Dev and Googum??
>>127465969
RIP poor BRdev friend. I hope you manage to get a nice job and eventually break into the game industry with a hobby project done on weekends. Alternatively, I hope your kickstarter suceeds
>>127465889
what kind of game is this for?
>>127466115
yggad-ygga is the correct pronounciation
Reminder that it's never too late to get started on that game, nodev. It could be...

>treating the engine as a separate concept from the game when not talking about code that has been duplicated and refactored out of multiple games
>>127466109
I'd like to thank the anon that gave me the scaling advice last thread, I think it looks a lot better now. I'm going to tweak the base sprite a bit.
>>127465910
How much has RRPS made anyway? Never mind how many people play it now, but if came out of it with more money than he wentin, I'd have to call that a success.
>>127466375
It is not separate but the parts of the game I'm working on now are in no way unique to the game itself.

Gurro icecream game.
You and your sister chop up village kids and cart them to other towns. haven't thought it all out but the mechanics work in my head.
>>127465969
should've included waifus
heed this warning fellow devs, without waifus you can't succeed
>>127466358
>I can't read Japanese, but I can sure make up shit about it XD
Ain't nothing wrong with Surippu Sutoriimu
>>127466452
Are you at least implementing things based on your own specific game rather than "well this could be useful"
>>127466358
stupid gweilo
>>127466103
I have no drawing/painting skills and I must make a game, so I'm using Inkscape to make the graphics. I might make a pixelized version later but this will do for now.

yeah, fuck that
I wanted to reuse this shit myself for other projects but that was such a grave mistake.
Will switch back to unified as soon as I can.
>>127466386
Looks nice. Realm of the mad god ripoff or something better?
>>127466574
Yes, I'm only adding the stuff I need to progress with the game.
>>127466390
Roughly 220 USD
About 35 people bought the game.
Average play time is .02 Minutes.
2,700 GPB to 3974.08 US Dollar
So he is about 3400 USD in with 0 Profit.
roughly, 4k.

>>127466770
Okay, well that's what I mean by "not treating the engine separate from the game"
So good
>>127466706
dreaming
>>127466706
Programming anything that isn't directly related to the game but still needs to be done so that you can continue gamedeving.
>>127466706
"enginedevving" - Developing an engine. As this is not "Mechanical/Electrical Engineering General - M/EEG", it refers to Video Game Engines.
>>127466806
>So he is about 3400 USD in with 0 Profit.

Engines are tools
>>127467174
you're a tool
>>127466952
The reality check probably hurts most of all.

>you will never work in a small studio deving fun games with fun people
>you will always be a lonely 1MA
reading new game was a bad idea
You should tell people about the thing you're selling.
>>127467396
Could be worse...You could be Googum
>>127467174
An engine could be a tool, but in that case I'd rather call it an SDK
Hopefully none of us are SDKdevs, or at least we get paid to do it for a company
>>127467396
its actually very easy to set something up, maybe we should or someone should set up a site for people looking for groups.
>>127466506
I would have included waifus if the game was funded
Stop using "waifu" to mean "girl" even if they're just for fanservice.
Waifus are in the eye of the husbando.
Any advice for an aspiring game Dev?

Get a degree at a good university and try to get into some big company like EA or Blizzard.
The path of the indiedev is a self-destructive one.
>>127467714
do whatever you can to start making games now. go download construct 2 or game maker and just start. look up tutorials and read documentation
also start learning to draw because fucking hell you will need it
>tfw you're making a gamepad only game so you have to redo yourself things that the engine already has because they're set for mouse control like drag and drop
>>127467516
need to make a site like ebay where you auction of money for assets.

>>127468131
a degree won't help you get into those companies
a portfolio and connections will. mostly connections

Don't post in Aggy Diggy if you actually want to get anything done.
You are given a job to write a program that generates a completely random game every time.
How do you do it?

i've always wondered how those studios with multiple failed mobile games stay in business, where do they get their funding?
i make games all by myself yet i can't do it for a living. somehow these people can and it makes me very bitter
>>127468806
I think that's what "buried bone" is meant to get at, but despite repeating the joke you're still very witty. Good job.

>>127468806
Anon and the buried comedic sense.
>>127468963
they do side projects, help out with other companies code, and those failed games still usually make sales. Also if they have a publisher, they get money and have to produce a game in a time frame
>>127468636
what's this game about? i've seen this logo a couple times but never any game.
>>127465969
6k doesn't seem that much - is the game nearly finished? If so - why not just spend a month polishing what you have and adding in basic features to have an Early Access build going?
>>127469238
you play as a shota dog and fuck other animals
>>127468963
Most such companies make licensed games for a living and get payed upfront.
>>127467965
I hate how husbando is spelled and pronounced. It should have been spelled hazubando to sound more japanese. It's like someone just added an o to the end bust still pronounces it with an english accent.

This shit even looks easy but i'm having a hard time bringing myself to read up the documentation for any longer than 20 mins
i want to dev but im too lazy to start :(
>>127469492
No, please put the shield down by default. I played Link's Awakening first so I liked having a separate button to block, especially because it let's me strafe an enemy with ranged attacks instead of turning around when I need to move away which leaves my back exposed. Link to the Past fucked it up by having the shield up by default. I hated that and it's why I never finished the game. Also, can you put a swing on the sword so that it starts pointing at 12 o clock and then swipes down to 9 o clock? I can already see shit like bats and ghosts flying at you and not being able to defend yourself from their aerial attacks. Good lord Link to the Past pissed me off so much. How does a gameboy game get it right while an snes game with more power and resources somehow screws up the combat system?
>>127469852he shoots his sperm
>>127470063
You probably shouldn't even be doing micro-optimizations. If the performance difference isn't significant, just keep the implementation that's the cleanest and most easily understood.
>>127469975
Thanks! So far the only graphics in the game that have been large enough to even have room for dithering have been the boss sprites.
>>127470138Money and gamedev exp.
>>127470306
That's a lot of hate. You'll hate it even more once I tell you that the shield doesn't actually block anything by default until you get an item.
>>127470542but are you or not a furry?
Why is the motto no longer "dev or die"? What even is our motto now?
I swear, it's not even attaching the parts to sockets at all. I re-exported all of the models to make sure the orientations were correct. Also moved the objects so that the point I want to attach it by (the bone) is at the origin.
This is getting irritating.

>Pseudo-Companies
>There is a strange obsession with creating game companies in the GameMaker community. New users are often guilty of this more than anyone else. You don’t need to create a logo, or a business name, or assemble a team of people you’ll never end up using (seek help only when you need it, team requests should be used sparingly). Don’t create a shoddy website for a non-existent, unregistered gaming company. Don’t put obnoxious trademarks on your software. If you want an identity associated with your work, use your username or your real name. Or how about linking to a YouTube channel where you can post videos of your game when it’s out?
>In a nutshell, splash screens and bogus company names don’t make you look credible. Since most people abandon their GameMaker projects and teams, it’s best to leave any business details for later – and only if you plan to stick to it and produce more software. And if you want to protect your work legally and freely, copyright can instantly be applied to your work. You can also use a free Creative Commons license, if your game is freeware or open-source. As for trademarks, you don’t need them.

>he doesn't store all his data structures as contiguous arrays
>>127472432
being succesfull has nothing to do it, showing you are capable of coding something that solves a complex problem like AI goes a long way, even in a game
>>127472872
Enjoy your shitty structure management complexity
>>127472997
What
>>127472997
enjoy your shitty performance
>>127473227
Not him but keeping everything as contiguous arrays adds a lot of structure management complexity, as in, because everything is contiguous the best way of getting things done is through the concept of systems, and this concept tends to make certain types of actions harder.
>>127472872
>>127473325
if your game bottlenecks from iterating over a collection, you have serious issues
>>127470797
gotta be honest here, i dunno m8
why is it shaking
also, if you're using OBS, right click your capture source->position/size->fit to screen
How do I make mob AI without RNG?
I want the enemies to attack but not all at the same time if they happen to be in range so I was planning on setting a random delay so they take turns
>>127472872
While we're at it, is there a good reason to break gigantic arrays into parts? Most of my game's data is currently in just a handful of vectors that simulate the behavior of vectors of vectors because I found that vector classes were too expensive (32B, last I checked).
>>127472949
Why would anyone hire some random coder when they can hire actual graduates with degrees?
Problem solving in programming is an expected basic, the other really important part is being able to work in a team and produce friendly code.
There's no such thing as "impressive code", being able to code a complex AI is an absolute minimum, what's desired is clean readable reusable code that keeps a convention, doesn't needlessly alter state, doesn't leak, etc etc.
>>127473343
The fuck are you talking about
He said data structures, not game entities
>>127473393
Not really, cache performance is extremely important and generally considered to be the biggest bottleneck behind graphics fidelity
>>127473325
Access time aint shit if you know how to exploit the size of a cache line
>>127473456
Give them some kind of priority variable and then send them in according to whichever has the highest.
>>127473470
>I found that vector classes were too expensive (32B, last I checked).

Are you dumb, fampai
>>127473343
>the best way of getting things done is through the concept of systems
what?
I'm talking about things like BSTs
the interface doesn't change, it's just the implementation that changes
>>127473492
>exploit caching
and that was my point
>>127473393
enjoy being limited to pong on mobiles
>>127473571
What if it's a mob of the same type of enemy?
>>127473740
>making a mobile game
like I said, serious issues
>>127473740
And my point is even iterating through contiguous memory can rape the cache if not done properly
>>127473762
Make priority be influenced by distance to player, as well. If two enemies of the same kind are the same distance from the player then they may a well both go desu senpai.
>>127473762
make a director who monitors the fight and sends in shit if there's room
>>127473456
create a mob AI that controls all the individual mob entities, assigning priority to the closest and then pushing it to the end of the queue
>>127473852
it was a strawman
if your thing can run well on potato systems, you can't worry more about bigger systems
>>127473928
ah, yes
>>127473456
It's turn based? Roll for initiative, distribute their delay as interval time for one single turn / number of combatants.
E.g. 2000ms / 6 mobs = 333ms
mob 1 attacks at 333ms
mob 2 attacks at 666ms
etc.
>>127473393
>>127473489
Draw calls specifically, I mean, but that's part of graphics fidelity I guess
It's unlikely that draw calls will be the bottleneck in an indie game, since simple graphics mean easy instancing and batching and whatnot, but it's easy to make cache misses build up even if you're just doing the same behaviour a lot of times
>>127473928
False sharing can be overcome, whereas non-contiguous storage will always thrash the cache
>>127473625
I didn't do that, I just made a class that contains a single vector and provides an interface which replicates the behavior of a twodimensional vector, because the data I want to store in the second dimension of vectors is usually smaller than the vector class that contains them and because as I said, it's a gigantic list which might accumulate to a half a gigabyte in size.
But I really just wanted to know whether there's a good reason not to make gigantic vectors like that.

A good AI will always come up with the most optimal strategy without using a RNG.
If statistically multiple options have the same probability of success however, you can always pick the first or last one you came up with.

Okay that's not dumb at all, good job.
It's fine to make giant vectors if you need all that memory at once and if the user has enough RAM

Making games for your career only applies if you want to do, say, game design, since art degrees are a fucking joke. But programming is a different beast. I would even go as far as saying making impressive shader demos would be miles better than making regular games.

what about the virtue of self teaching?
thing with graduates is that you can't really know for sure what they are made of and how much training they're gonna need
on the other side, if this guy has been doing shit alone, and impressive shit, you know he can handle himself and can adapt to the company
>>127474921
Sounds like a hash table, the secondary lists for items with the same hash
But that doesn't really explain why it's so big, because either the objects are large and owned by the hash table and the size overhead of std::vector is negligible, or the objects are tiny or only pointed to, in which case the hash table itself is way too large

Hey, just in case you asswipes are interested, HeartBeast's udemy course on making a platformer in Game Maker Studio (which is free) is on sale for $10 right now when it's usually literally $159. No idea when the sale ends, but I already got it. Goes through the basics of using the program, uses 100% scripting and none of the other actions, so you know you'll get a grounding in GML, and is careful to teach proper terms and make concepts like inheritance clear.
I'm not finished with it, so it might fall off. Dunno. But if you were considering buying it at the full price for some stupid reason, do yourself a favor and do it now. Or if you just think it sounds cool.

In any non shit university you need to teach yourself a lot of stuff, so I don't know what you're trying to imply. Sure there's the usual guy that weaseled his way into the degree, but you can discard him with a simple fizzbuzz or similar.
The problem is also that CS is a meme degree that focuses on research and is mostly irrelevant for practical applications, what you want is software engineers.
Another thing is, "impressive shit done by oneself" barely exists because most problems have been solved for decades, the bulk of programming is just designing subsystem interactions in a nice way. I've worked with a few of "self taught programmers" and a lot of their shit needs to be completely rewritten because it's unreadable. Some can't even handle big codebases because they are so used to actually writing all the code they work with themselves. Sure they are great for prototyping, but that's about it.

I'd offer them a job in PR/marketing probably. Why are they even asking for a job here instead of making their own company if they were so successful?
>>127476291
anything on udemy that says shit like "learn this in hours" is a fucking scam
just read the documentation and use google
>>127476808
Software engineers are mindless cucks that will never write anything of real value
All they do is maintain shitheaps with reinforced shit

Looking good, anon. You should make a blog to post updates for this.
aggy daggies, I'm using Unity/C#
I'm destroying an object and I'm spawning a prefab clone of it.
My problem is that in the script attached to the prefab, there are two references to values in 2 other scripts. In the newly spawned clone, they are not linked to those scripts/objects.
How can I use GetComponent/gameobject.find to do so?
I've been googling this shit for two days but I just can't get the syntax correct.
Please help.
>>127480098
If the other scripts are also on the prefab it should keep the proper reference to the new instance components.
If you are trying to reference other gameobjects:
GameManager gm = FindObjectOfType<GameManager>();
or
Camera previewCamera = GameObject.Find("CharPreviewCamera").GetComponent<Camera>();

Looks nice, reminds me of StarBound. I'd pick a less-black stroke on the character. But at that resolution it's hard to tell.
Is ir okay if I start working on my Jam early if I don't spend more than 29 days on it?

Is that a red panda or a racoon?
Trying to create my own Solid generic object to be a parent to floors and ceilings in my game. Using gamemaker. I had floors working but now I'm trying to test with ceilings and I'm having some issues with the character falling through the floor after contacting a ceiling. I'm pretty sure what is happening is the character is failing a collision check in one step, but by the next step the character intersecting with the solid. I had a solution involving changing the y position at the beginning of a step by 1 until the player was no longer intersecting with the ceiling, but it appears that this causes them to fall through the floor on the way back down. Should I tie this interaction to the v-speed so that they don't fall through floors? Once that's fixed how do I make the character not get stuck in the ground on the way down.

I'm an idiot, I didn't think of attaching the other scripts, they're just referenced.
