I made a battle theme
https://soundcloud.com/iwilldevouryourkittens/miscreant-menace
I'm hoping it'll work for a tense and climactic battle. Thoughts?
You can do it anon!
You can make a game!
Just curious, but in the summer I would have a ton of free time and would like to help people with their games, I really just want experience so you don't have to pay me or anything, just give credit IF I do any meaningful work for you. I don't want to contribute ideas, or try to change your game. I just want to work as though I was an employee of the guy.
Would anyone be interested in this?
I'm trying to replicate the first few steps of this http://www.gamasutra.com/blogs/AAdonaac/20150903/252889/Procedural_Dungeon_Generation_Algorithm.php?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
and unity's damn collision boxes always get stuck if they're too close to one another. They only spread like the tutorial if they are close but not overlapping a lot.
Is there a fix for this?
>>138111194
If youre gonna shill your stuff at least have the decency to only do it once.
Sorry to repost, didn't see thread was about to die.
Mockups for monster attack patterns, just wondering if they make sense to anyone else but me.
>>138111457
What stuff are you able to do?
>>138111551
Yeah I guess you're right.
Sorry. I get high on positive feedback sometimes.
Hey, Rape Island Dev, how did you implement timed blocks/hits into your system?

At the time of summer I would be done with all computer science classes I would need to graduate, finishing a business minor over the summer.
So I'm decent at coding at the video game level, having taken classes like artificial intelligence, and graphics. I can't say I'm much of a composer but I do have a midi keyboard I've been messing. And have been teaching myself how to draw but I don't have a tablet or anything like that yet.
Post ideas you'd like to see tried out in MMOs. Anything that would help mix up the formula that they all seem to follow nowadays.
Personally I'd like to know if a video game economy could survive if there was a more or less fixed amount of gold in the world. The supply would slowly inflate from, I dunno, characters mining it or something, but there'd be no random gold on monster corpses unless the monster had killed something and picked it up.
>>138111551
YEAH AGDG IS SUPER SERIOUS WE ARE ALL ABOUT QUALITY CONTROL AND RULES HERE
>>138112260
Well how would you account for NPCs who have to be paid for stuff, like traveling, repairing, vendor like stuff? Does that money just go away? Also how do you stop a player from hoarding money then just quitting the game with their character intact.
Reminder that Game Maker: Studio is half price right now.
Reminder that they can tell if your game was made in a pirated version and you WILL be sued.
>>138111624
No worries, we all feel the same way. Nothing better than having someone tell you they like something you put time into.
Now that Im done ranting about my personal feelings I will give some feedback on your song.
The melodies were pretty catchy and I like the intrumentation. The song works as a battle theme. I have to say that Im not fond of the key change by the end of the loop. Key changes might work better in pop songs and songs that arent meant to be listened to on a loop and cause you hear the key change so often it kind of cheapens it a bit.
Also when making music that is supposed to be looped the rule of thumb is usually that you want the end of the loop and the start of the loop to be as close in dynamics as possible. If the loop ends with a bang and it starts again with a fizzle its super easy to hear the loop point and the music will get tedious more quickly.
Maybe Im just preaching to the choir but there you go
>>138112803
The awareness of looping is definitely something that separates great game music from good/ok game music. When composing you have to assume infinite repeats and compose that way.
How does the first note sound? How does it sound second time through? Third? ... How does it sound after time has passed and another battle comes up?
I love the fuck out of Pillars of Eternity, and for the most part the music is fantastic, but some of the battle music is almost a little too... intense? Battley? So on its own it's a great piece of music, but on repeat it starts to wear on me.
>>138112597
I dunno, thats why I want to test it out. Maybe have it structured so that there's simulated cashflow between vendors. Like a potion seller would have to buy his materials from the same vendor that the players buy their potion crafting materials from. That'd also have the effect of making some areas poorer then others naturally, instead of by developer interference, and giving the players the ability to do some jewing themselves, both of which people seem to like. As far as players quitting with fat stacks in their inventory, I'd have to talk to my buddy in economics. He'd probably start talking about tensors and shit.
>few hours later

I've tried, you can't blame me about that.
I think I'll migrate to reddit and the screenshot saturday thing.
>>138111709
I have an "action input" object that handles timed hits. During the attack animation it creates the "action input" object and sets the input time window, position of the 'visualization' (i.e. the shrinking circle that lets you know when to press the button) and a script to run that handles the result of the action input.
The "action input" object then counts down the input time window (e.g. if a 1 second time window @ 60 FPS would mean it counts down from 60 over 60 steps). If you press the input key during this time, it stores the current countdown as your "last input time" and ignores any input for a while (e.g. until the countdown - lastInputTime > n).
Once the countdown reaches 0 it checks your last input time and compares it to the timed hit thresholds (e.g. "nice" is 6 steps or 1/10 of a sec, "good" is 12 steps or 1/5 of a sec). It then displays the "NICE"/"GOOD"/"BAD" text, plays a sound, etc. and finally runs the script that you originally passed in (and passes an argument to the script for whether it was nice/good/bad/etc). The script handles the action itself (e.g. if it's an attack it deals damage, if it's the 'identify monster' move it identifies, etc).
>>138112260
goodle communist zombie mmo
>>138113264
I think that its important to have "rests" in your songs too where your ears can "recover" cause in a lot of battle themes the music has to be fast and intense to set the mood and after a while that will get pretty annoying to listen to.
The only example I could think of right now at the top of my head is this song
https://youtu.be/ooZyHLLQ5e8
Even though its very intense its still has a few low dynamic moments so that its not just 100% at all times. Plus the breaks makes the intense parts even more effective.
Its all about keeping the ear interested for a long time. If your melodies are catchy too than that is of course a giant plus.
Does anyone know how much it costs to have your game ported by a third party to a different platform?
I guess it depends on the length of the code, the similarity of the languages and the renown of the studio among other things, but with those variables in mind, how much can it be?
Like how much per line for a nobodies studio?
The FlounderBass! Its been finished! This gun took me 2 days (1 for concept to uv unwrap, colored today!). Now to figure out how to make a model equip this and..ah jeez.If I keep making models I wont have to look at programming again will I haha? HAha?

Sounds like a fun experiment. If you've got experience in linear algebra and ODEs, these might help with the math side of it

And the following one (Lecture 24) is on Markov matrices which could also be helpful.

No. Thank YOU for my monthly dopamine injection. Welp, the unity QA board should have answers I need.
>>138114268
I'd need to make an MMO that's actually fun enough to consistently hold the attention of a large number of people if I wanted to test this out. Which could take a long, long while.
>>138113934
This looks quite neat. That extremely specific name is probably why I've never stumbled on it.

This is breddy gud. I didn't like that first 4.5 ish second section, and that instrument you had playing immediately afterwards sound unnecessarily filtered or something.
>>138112307
I dont think public opinion on something will change after just an hour or two so asking again is unneccesary
>>138114297
Does anyone have that image of different engines/languages and indie dev being buttered toast?
Godot would be a glass shard.

>>138114297
fuck their python bullshit
>>138114537
The whole point of setting up a model is so that you can test your system, see the "steady state solution" (at time = inf), see what happens when you add a periodic "force" (maybe production up in summer season, etc).
Even if you have some random players who happen to keep their attention on your game, that's a bad way to test the system because if it's broken, they leave. Sorry but that seems like you're setting yourself up for failure.
>>138113801
your game needs to have cute girls or lewds to get any response here
if you insist here is a little tip, don't actually post progress. post stuff like "how does this weapon look?" or "how is this juice?". the average IQ in here is grade school level so you need to frame your posts as basic questions people can instantly respond to, no one wants to actually think and give constructive criticism
>>138111194
This is really good. The other anon was right about the beginning being weak (I get what you were trying to do with the "start slow" thing but there's something off about it).
Also the main instrument sounds muffled somehow? Might be intentional but maybe try experimenting with different instruments/samples/whatever. It sounds fine in the main part of the song but when it's solo at the beginning it sticks out.
>>138115843
Reddit is also quite literally worthless. Tried posting my stuff on /r/gamedev a few times and the respones I got can be boiled down to
>Looks good :) Now give me attention on MY project
>>138115634
Im more interested in what will happen when I just leave it alone and dont exert my godlike power over the game. Im not too interested in how the NPC world would fare, because an easy sim could tell me that. The whole point was to what the players as a group would do with it.
>>138116065
>>Looks good :) Now give me attention on MY project
>>138112260
That wouldn't work. If the game got popular, then you would be unable to resist the bribes from the Chinese gold farmer cartels to scrap the system.
>>138116065
>Expecting reciprocal feedback is unreasonable
>>138114808
I think you mean Godot would be an actual butter knife.
>>138116420
The point was that the "feedback" was quite literally worthless and it was all a contest for the most attention while trying to seem as modest and friendly as possible.
>>138116420
Looks good :) is garbage feedback
I love when I see whiny babies complain about quality right next to good quality.
Yes, agdg is mostly bad, but if you have your expectations callibrated, it's a fantastic place. Lots of helpful information, advice and feedback given here.

>>138117130
It sounds like you have a bad case of tittybabyism. I suggest you stop being a tittybaby.
Adjust your progress posting if it's not working for you. Like someone else said, ask direct questions, use it partly as a short devdiary "today I blahblah, check it out", etc.
Also adjust your replies to progress, because apparently you feel that doing so entitles you to feedback of your own. This appears to be a symptom of your tittybabyism, so clearing that up should help here too.
>>138112803
I think key changes are great for looped music as long as you keep it subtle. It can help prevent it from being boring without the listener realising it. I haven't experimented with it that much though.
>>138116984
Ah shit. What's giving you trouble? I'll be sure to make it right. Are the exact movements in the monster patterns unclear? Or something else?
>>138117884
>progress posting

>>138118268
>start on tonic

I don't do any music programming, but I could see even more interesting things happening, such as having meta-info influence the music (like, random thought, having a battle shortly after a previous battle would set off some other aspect of the music, introducing muted instruments as health gets low, ...)

Didn't Spec Ops do a disorientation effect like it?
I know one recent-ish AAA game did.
>>138118975
Aha! Okay, let me explain.
The blue numbers indicate that all the panels with that number are a part of the same sequence. So both of these enemies have two different attacks each. I wrote down SFX to indicate that in sequence 2 for each enemy, their attack would include a feint, which is basically the enemy trying to bait you into blocking too early, which leaves you open to their more powerful attack.
To make that more clear, I have removed the blue numbers and instead drew lines connecting related panels together.

And possibly recolor the blue wisps red for the weakest color fire.
>>138110958
I don't know how you guys do it. I love art, but I hate any career that has to do with art.
I find it really hard, for example, to work with the completely banal video game industry. So many games these days are complete dogshit.
Even if you "make it", whether you're an artist or game designer, you'll likely work on AAA trash like Battleborn, League of Legends, Call of Duty, Far Cry, Assassin's Creed instead of tasteful titles like Witcher, Dark Souls, The Division, Battlefleet Gothic, Dishonored etc.

It looks like you're doing exactly what I'm doing: Audio cues to differentiate monster attacks (well, I have audio and visual cues).
Question: What can the player do about them? Is this action based like the gba/ds superstar saga mario games?

I'd really think about loopability. Good composition of a song is not the same as good composition in game music. I love the little melody in the first one, but I'd quickly get tired of it. Second is nice and atmospheric, but also that's the easiest sort of thing to loop. Third is fun and has a good kind of "structure" for game music (bweep-bweeps of various kinds, with occasional pauses and additional stuff). I dunno about the 4th one, not sure what kind of game it would go with.
You weren't asking for feedback but I gave it anyhow HA. From a song-music standpoint I like your style.
I'm interested in techniques for videogame music that are more complicated than playing an mp3 in the background, I like thinking about that stuff. Like if song is A->B->C->A->B->C->A... in structure, having like a probability that instead of B it'll go to B' which is a variation on B, that sort of thing.

Dark souls was sloppy as fuck, even the first one. It's one of the most ideaguyish games I've ever played. I'm not saying I disliked it, but it certainly wasn't developed with care for anything other than "I THOUGHT UP THIS COOL GUY WITH A GIANT SWORD AND-" etc.

>The Division
Also, don't shit on Battleborn. It's one of the few modern games that earns its pricepoint. Full single-player campaign with optional co-op, loads of content, no microtransactions, plenty of gamemodes, huge cast of unique characters and abilities, competitive multiplayer, geniuninely fun, it's got it all. Where as Overwatch has even less content but it's Blizzard and heavily marketed. Just because Randy Pitchford exists doesn't mean everyone else should get shat on at Gearbox.
And not every game needs to be a work of art, just like how not every movie is an award winning film. It's ok to watch Direct to DVD movies, they aren't stopping people from making artsy films, they have their own audience. AAA games can have great art direction, not sure why you're shitting on LoL, they're art style is constantly improving and they're updating the old amature-looking garbage from when they first started out. All the games you listed as garbage look great and have tight, responsive controls for the most part.

Who is this guy? Just someone who posts the same picture over and over again?
What an epic prankster
>>138128539
JESUS FUC-- Jesus fucking christ!
What is this garbage!?
Do people really post trash like this thinking that it's proper progress?
>>138128539
What is this trash?
>>138128539
>>138128539
Garbage. Absolute Garbage.

Maybe try varying the texture between the two different sizes. It looks a bit strange.
Hell yes to the volcano

>>138128539
Trash!
>>138128539
I knew you were here the second some worthless faggot started bragging about being on welfare because he's a depressed autist. As if we didn't already know you're a bum.
>>138128539
Absolute fucking garbage. Why would someone make this? Why would someone feel that this is appropriate to post!?
One day the FBI will hear my complaints and have this man killed. This terrorist will be destroyed, one day... One day...!
>sourcefam has been wallowing in his own piss and misery for over 9 months replying to himself and starting random offtopic conversations to get his dopamine fix
>rotatedev has started camwhoring on /soc/ as a tranny to get his dopamine fix
These guys actually thought they had a place in gamedev at some point.
Anyone do animations? I need a walk cycle for this shitty bug for my shit game
Six minutes :)

>implying you aren't fully mentally destroyed right now
You really don't get it do you mate? You're as broken as anyone could have ever hoped to make you.
Have fun with your ebin shitposting, you're really teaching us and your "friends" who laughed at your shitty gmod maps a lesson :^)
>>138128539
that's trash. whoever made that is trash
Why are real actual terrorists allowed here?
daily reminder that being good at art is a talent and not a skill
>>138130152
Where the fuck is your game, furfag!?
>>138128539
Let's do a little experiment here agdg... how many times has sourcefam posted this image of his gmod map in order to "false flag" shitpost at it for hours on end?
The answer may surprise you, right after a short commercial break.
Terrorists!!
This thread is being constantly ruined, why is that?
>>138130989
>>138128539
im vomiting irl desu
>>138130623
And the answer?
For this particular variation of source.png he's posted it over 20 times.
https://boards.fireden.net/_/search/image/MQpnOFT8-UhB-vO1PzJLGg/
For another, 11 times!
https://boards.fireden.net/_/search/image/l-oDay5PjUvxqlt_1d6faw/
Imagine the mental state of someone who bullies their own work with false flag shitposting over 31 times. If we were to look up all the other variations he's posted, we'd see that he's been at this for over 7 months and has posted the same image over 67 times in order to bully himself and shitpost agdg.
Truly amazing to watch this level of psychosis in a person who actually thought he had the right to bully other gamedevs.
Let's watch as the freakshow continues!
>>138128714
I don't need anything right now, I'm a useless nodev who can't get started on his game, so I just try to give feedback when I'm around.
But if you just want a random idea, how about some weather-channel style light jazz muzak?
If you like the idea of the A->B->C->... but randomly going to B' or B'' or C' instead thing, I'm interested in thinking about how that would work. I guess one thing for sure is that A, A', A'', ... would have to mix nicely with whatever comes before and after, and same with the B's and C's of course.
http://setosa.io/ev/markov-chains/ this is kind of the idea. I'm sure markov chains have been used in music before, but I just have no experience with any of it.
So like, for these purposes, some middle node has say 50% chance of going to M and 50% chance going to M'. And at M, say 1/3 chance N, 1/3 N', and 1/3 N'', stuff like that. So to do that, you'd have to have M and M' which mix well with N, N', and N''.
Maybe this is an interesting way to get variation, or maybe it will sound like shit, who knows.
>>138131069
>Know Your AGDG - Part 1
post the rest
I have no trouble with making maps, but I'm not sure how many different ones to make... I want to make a 5-10 hour RPG, are there any estimates or guideline about area to length ratio? I just don't want my game to seem too repetitive
>>138128539
this is proof that art is a talent. the guy that made this spent 200+ hours practising his art and still couldn't put together something acceptable
>>138128539
Fuck! I'm hurt by this post. I'm actually injured. This has hurt me. I feel hurt by that post existing.
>>138130989
We have nothing else to talk about
>>138131190
That's actually really sad. I would feel bad for sourcefam if he wasn't such a ponce who had to take his frustration out on agdg.
>>138129496
I just thought the hotel building looked pretty neat in this pic even though it doesnt look as good in my attempt at recreating it. I'll definitely try to make a vulcano though.

>>138128539
Absolutely Disgusting.
>>138131190
Even more fun you can see how many times he's spammed the same reaction images to the same shitpost. He's truly a black hole of hopelessness and shitposting. All because mothdan broke his mind.

When are you going to learn that you're not welcome here at all!? Fuck off with your garbage Full Sail nonsense.

Thread Ruined
>>138128539
What is this
Is it dev?
It doesn't look like dev.
>>138131190
And for each time he posts his gmod screenshot he samefags it about 5-10 times on average (sometimes as much as 25 times) so he's shitposted about 400-600 times... this isn't even taking into account how much aimless angry shitposting he does on the side. He's had almost daily meltdowns of shitposting since last summer.
In sourcefam we really might have one of the most mentally ill shitposters on 4chan.
>>138128539
>>138128539
Gross.
How is this dev, again?

Coming up on 30 samefags everyone. Is sourcefam going for a new record?
Remember, he sees this as "getting back" at us for telling him to fuck off with his drunken slopwork in hammer and his sob stories about how his friends rightfully told him his """"level design""""" is shit.
You feeling sorry for him yet? :^)I'm not.
>>138128539
Disgusting!
Reminder that nothing stops whatever this is, just leave /agdg/ for awhile.
I don't know or care about the drama, it's just a swamp of shit, but one thing I do know, is that these episodes can go on for quite awhile.
Good excuse to get back to work, have good progress yesdevs
>>138133331
Jackpot.
You've posted the variation of this image 38 times.
https://boards.fireden.net/vg/search/image/YKl0iZ7uH_smmCgwG6bUjg/
You can even see all your retarded """"game designer""""" dropout opinions tied to this reaction image. They're almost as shitty as your level design :p
Keep dancing monkey! Ooo Eee Ahh Ahh!
Why does the thread get destroyed every time Source gets posted?
>>138133562
Why do you think Source is okay to post?
>>138122314
>Even if you "make it", whether you're an artist or game designer, you'll likely work on AAA
thats not making it, that wageslave wagecuckoldry
getting a job is not ever "making it".
I have to stay up and take care of a coffin.
Literal graveyard shift.
Anyone looking for some music? I can't do a lot in this crappy netbook, but can probably pull off some nice lo-fi tunes
>>138133562
>these episodes can go on for quite awhile.
It's not just that he does it for hours on end, he's been doing it almost daily for over 9 months.
Don't let him run you out of agdg, just throw some peanuts at him and laugh. It's all he's ever been good for anyway.
I applied for a janitor position the other day.
If I get the job would I be allowed to delete-on-sight that stupid (You) bait picture, or is that technically allowed? I don't know what sort of oversight 4chan has for janitors.
>>138133650
It's one guy replying to himself.
>>138133562
What the fuck is wrong with you that you think any part of this is okay?
>>138133827
How do you get a job at a graveyard, been meaning to get into that kind of job for research for a game.
Six minutes :)
>>138133852
You just replied to him unfortunately.
>>138133846
I think technically a post needs to be reported at least once before you can delete it if it's not x-rated or something.
The disturbing thing is that agdg will never be rid of him. He's like a baby who never grows up and will be shitting himself and stinking up the place forever.
Even rotate learned to give up eventually, but this guy is even more pathetic than rotate.
>>138133846
I think you'd get nothing but support for cleaning this place up. Never in all my years of channery have I seen such rampant and destructive shitposting. It's rather amazing.
>>138133796
>>138133940
And then they do this "I know it's you!!!" anon 101 stuff. It's really really ridiculous, but it invariably ruins the thread. It really is best to just leave for awhile, until the shitstorm wears itself out, or we have better moderation.
Four minutes :)
>>138133639
>DROPPED
>literal shit
How do people this fucking worthless even exist? It's one thing to be a shitposter it's another to be a shitposter who can't even make a game in source and has to terrorize a message board because of it with his constant shitposting and negative replies to progress.
This cunt should literally hang himself.
>>138134021
I don't work here, I'm just migrating the graveyard's database to a newer system, and have to be awake in case it failsagainit's failed 4 times already
And the table the computers sit on is literally a broken coffin.
I don't think it's hard to get a job here, though. You just have to be a bit of a psycho, but not too psycho
Three minutes :)

Thats me :^)
Two minutes :)
Eight minutes :)
>>138134270
He's always been triggered by being called out for being depressed. He is aggressive because he's depressed. He was the inspiration behind multiple mentally ill agdg poster archetypes.
It's not hard to imagine someone like him drinking himself to death or taking pills at some point. Hopefully he realizes his life is a dead end and gets it over with soon.
How do I win at making game with all odds against me?
>>138134904
stop thinking and just do it.

Man you've been saying that for a long time. I have no interest in the drama, it reminds me of shit from when I was a teenager. Feeling smug about derailing a thread on an anonymous imageboard, wow man, that does sound fantastic. You are like some kind of mastermind right?
>Tfw game deving is too difficult to make your own unique game idea you had in mind
>>138135892
I dunno gut reaction says "meat cleaver"Which probably means it's too obvious.
What about...a pig
