You have a game that's 1280 x 1024 with 20x20something sprites?
>>140913090
>>140913090
>>140913205
>>140913106
maybe, ive been trying out a few different resolutions. my monitor is 4:3 so ive been sticking with that ratio, and 640x512 is a bit awkward for a speedy platformer (don't want it to be disorienting like some Genesis games). i'm probably going to go the nuclear throne route with a fixed ratio and side-art.
>>140913106
>>140913317
oh and -- the sprites scale 2:1, so they're around ~40x50

How awful is it. I just want to make some shitty RPG.
It's just daunting with Unreal in that if you ever did get something done to be released it'd be a nightmare to manage/update/patch/etc alone
>>140915629
You were saying?
>>140915695
how do I into design? I wanna make a serious game with serious looking characters but I don't think that would work with low-poly and chibi. and try to do it otherwise is just too much work
Working on attaching multiple directional machine guns to planes, so that I can use them for bombers. Still need to give each gun its own AI rather than relying on the plane's like the fighters' guns do. Bombers should be fun once they're fully implemented
>>140915886
Proper design requires a lot of planning and research. You don't just go and draw shit until it's good, you need to actually approach it properly.
>>140915952
I like the Advanced Wars aesthetic. Though I'm guessing its a side-scroller wave-shooter thing?
The planes are a bit small if you want to have a lot of gameplay\attention to small details like individual guns on planes. If its going to be a focus maybe blow it all up a bit.
>>140915792
>Working on attaching multiple directional machine guns to one plane
For a second I thought you were danny working on new plans to eradicate rotate
>>140916117
>I like the Advanced Wars aesthetic.
It's just advanced wars sprites though.
>spending more time writing stuff that can come later instead of coding real progress like gameplay mechanics and shit
I don't like this a bit but I just can't help it
>>140916179
So they are. I'll have to work harder at memorising all the assets of every game I've ever played.
>>140916269
Pro tip: if you're writing something other than code, you're doing something wrong.
>>140916117
The background tiles are straight from Advance Wars, just darkened a bit so they aren't as harsh. I'm just using them as placeholders but I'd like to go for a similar aesthetic once I make my own
The size of the planes has been a big issue. It plays pretty fast and is mostly about using missiles, so most of the bigger sprites I've made don't move as smoothly. But it obviously gets hard to tell what's going on when they're so small. Just one of many visual design issues I need to work on

Probably to do with the scale.
When you unparent something, it multiplies it's location by whatever the parent's scale was to keep it in the same place.

Added enemy. The animations are pretty much same as in previous version, but I try to get time to improve them. It's not possible to kill the enemies yet. Should I make enemies leave corpses behind when they die like in old version or just make them have death animation and add some shader or something to make them have some cool disappearing animation?
I might give armored enemies back that spark effect when hit instead of blood. Not sure yet.
How's the speed? I know the knight's slash needs smaller hitbox.
I had better webm but 4chains doesn't let me post webm for some reason even though it's 1.7MB...

It usually says why. Encoded it wrong?
Why'd you restart this? It looks much worse than it did last time I saw you post.
>corpses vs disappearing
>blood vs sparks
Depends how human\gritty you want your enemies to come across as. People don't tend to bleed that much unless they're dying, but from your oversized swords I guess realism isn't a factor
Speed is good. Looks engaging.
>>140923670
What do they do?
>>140915682
Every framework, engine, or language is going to be the same. You have to put in work, you're gonna fail a lot, and nothing is gonna work for a while.
>I just want to make some shitty RPG
Then use Gamemaker or RPGMaker. The hell you doing making an RPG in unreal.
>>140915682
Why did you listen the shitheads in agdg? Just use something simple which makes the job done. Like GMS or RPG Maker.
>>140923856
I agree with this. The cool thing with UE4 is it's going to be well documented and well supported. Plus if you are a complete scrub you can simply depend on blueprints until you feel ready to script.
>>140923587
>What the hell are you throwing at the enemy?
mageek knives. Gif skips some frames so it looks weird.
>>140923695
>It usually says why. Encoded it wrong?
I get "Error: Your image contains an embedded file.". I convert my files to webm with ffmpeg like I've always done. No idea why it refuses to work now.
>Why'd you restart this? It looks much worse than it did last time I saw you post.
Obliviously those tiles are placeholders. I still have all the graphical stuff from old version. I had to rewrite it, because the old code was so spaghetti and it would've took more time to fix it than start over. The gameplay feels lots better now and there should be lots less bugs.
>corpses vs disappearing
coprses were previously part of gameplay mechanics so there was reason for them to exist. I think with slopes they look kinda weird, so I'd honestly prefer if enemies just had dying animation and then disappeared.
>blood vs sparks
non-armored enemies would bleed, but armored would just have spark effect. They would bleed too, of course, when dying. Except if they are skeletons or something, obliviously.
>computer randomly turns off
Haha, time for backups
>>140923393
Let it go no slower than that, fast is always good.
>>140923615
> i have experience programming procedurally generated levels and AI
i take it you mean to say that your strongest skills is in programming.
i have a game idea for that skill i gave before that i dont think was ever used...a simulator game about tracking weapons starting from manufacturers, distributing out into government and civilian resellers and further distributing out into civilians where they're no longer trackable (by the player) until they're used in a crime. the job of the player is to stop criminal purchasers by detective style analyzing the purchase data to figure out the best places in the branches of resellers to use their limited actions/funds to prod into the non-trackable areas of the simulation so that they can ultimately find major black market suppliers and arrest them.
or do you want something fresh?
>>140924270
>fast is always good
I understand what you are getting at but hyperbole like that doesn't apply to design.

>>140925195
He said an RPG.
>>140925195
lots of people pop open GM thinking they will be able to handle a RPG as their first game. When you are following tutorials to make your character walk and fight, it's safe to say that you cannot take on an full RPG as a first game. I don't know why everyone forgets this but you need to build your way up from small, single screen, games until you master the basics.
>>140925418
Making RPG on GM is possible, but it requires actual skill and knowledge instead of RPG Maker. It's possible to make one using GM, but it requires more skill than people think it does.

Progress.
I've made it so fatal damage that you take when you have >1 HP instead sets you to 1 HP. You still die if you take fatal damage at 1 HP though.
This lets me be a bit more risky with the damage values for monsters (as nothing will randomly one-shot you). Combined with limited healing sources it also makes the microgame combat more risky - every mistake can potentially cost you in the long run (as you can't just fully heal up after combat like in a lot of RPGs). It also adds some tense moments where your whole team is at 1 HP and you have to get perfect timing / completion on actions/microgames just to survive each turn.
Also working on updating the UI/menu system.
Hopefully I'll have something ready for demo day.

As a rhythm game fan I highly recommend that during heart action blast if you hit the arrows correctly they should disappear instead of continuing past the hit zone. Even with it glowing green I can't help but instinctively feel like I fucked up and it just looks weird to me.
>>140926316
I have collision box set for player and enemies. These are used for collision checks with ground and attack hitboxes.
Player has sword object tied to him and when PC attacks, sword objects gets hitbox sprite that matches the animation. When enemies attacks, they spawn this hitbox object which has enemy's ID tied to them. the enemy hitbox object gets sprite and image index that matches the current attack and will be destroyed after attack is done or cancelled by attack or something.
Then player does collision check to that enemy hitbox object, which checks damage amount, type and effect. Same applies to enemies too. It's not too hard with IDs.

I'm not sure how should I create my world map. It's a top-down grid map with square tiles. It's not gonna be a randomly generated map, think more of the 2d pokemon games.
Basically should I just store the tile information in a file and then spawn those tiles based on the file contents when the game launches?
Like I would write it down in a 2D array like this:
"tree" "tree "tree"
"grass" "grass" "tree"
"house" grass" "grass"
and then just spawn these tree, grass and house tiles after reading them.

Tell me what do you want to do? Do you have any skills on 2d or 3d graphics? Do you want to make 2d or 3d game? Do you have any experience with programming (java, c, c++, python, something)?
If you want to make 2d game, GM:S is pretty easy. Unity is one option too. You should start checking out documentations and tutorials. Once you get basics down (how to make movement etc), you can start with small project (try to make copy of pong, pacman etc). Once you have basics down, you can try to do more advanced stuff. If you want to do X and you have no idea how, you can google for tutorials. There are thousands of tutorials for Unity and GM:S.
I cant help with 3d stuff. I can do some animations and modeling but no experience making 3d games.

Essentially yes, but you're not going to store it as an array of strings because that uses a lot of memory and it adds up real quick. Use a char or int.
Use a tile editor like Tiled to make your maps, it's free.

Would you fuck a sea creature if she asked you to, anon?
>>140927886
I would, but I'm pretty bad at animating things. I was hoping I could just leave it until I can hire an actual artist (if that ever happens). At the moment I just want to get it playable and add some levels.

Makes sense, I just need to figure out how to code everything relating to the sword.
Any recommendation for tutorials or guides? Where did you learn to do it?
>>140923393
It bumbs me out to see what the combat has become, honestly. With the old slow style, you had to choose your approach wisely but now with the mc being faster AND having more range than even the big enemies, it looks like the game is going to just be mindless combos :(

Can you even be more delusional than this aussie autist?
>>140928041
Start with Unity or UE. Both has lots of tutorials as far as I know. I think you are better off testing both and then use whichever feels better to you. GM:S is trash for 3D.
>>140923393
Your game had potential.
Now it looks like shit.
Combos are never ever fun, guy.
>>140926037
Updoot for fellow yesdev (and I actually quite enjoyed the demos, so yeah).
>>140913507
No googum, you're games are still shit, and you're a nobody outside of agdg.
>>140926037
Would vote down if downvotes were actually counted.
Your "game" looks like trash.

>Any recommendation for tutorials or guides?
Just google how IDs in gamemaker work. It will save you from LOTS of work, seriously.
Basically you have two objects.
>oEnemy
>oEnemyHitbox
Then you make enemy create oEnemyHitbox this way:
var hitbox = instance_create(x, y, oEnemyHitbox);
hitbox.owner = id;
Then have in oEnemyHitbox's creation event:
owner = ""; or -1 or whatever you prefer
then have it go along with it's owner with something like
y = owner.y
x = owner.x
And destroy it when "owner" (the enemy) stops existing or when his attack is 0 (i use state machine so it doesnt work this way in my game).
>>140929043
I will make that knight bigger when I have more time. I could slow down player's attacks with more delay between the attacks (attack animation speed would stay same, there would be just more delay so it would he harder to chain attacks) so there would be higher punishes. It's still not just mindless combos. More than 1 enemy is pretty hard to deal with, since PC has low HP.
>>140929289
Do you think that if I made it more execution heavy and less like hack'n'slash it would be more fun? Please tell me more about how you feel. Nothing is set at this stage yet. These same moves were available in previous versions too (except downwards slash), but they were indeed slower, so the combat hasn't changed that much. It's just faster.
Nothing is set at this stage. I'm open to all feedback and requests. Help me fellow devs andnodevs.
Good luck with demo day AGDG
There's only 4 days left to show us how big of a dev you are

Yes googum, this one man is bullying you. The rest of AGDG has your back.
tell us more about "him"... does he have high powered rifles?

Nishikado, who hasn't been relevant since the 70's having worked only on sequels and ports since then? Really? Is that someone who has grown as a developer? Seems more like a stuck up nobody to me.
>googum only replies to posts that personally attack him
wow
who would've known
Am I breaking the copyright law if I record someone playing his original music without their permission? Even if I don't use the recording.
>>140929864
don't worry googum I have just the thing to stop him
(see attached file)
why is that guy so stuck up though? didnt he just make asteroids or something?
I mean, its just a triangle flying around shooting asteroids
>>140930413

Then you have nothing to worry about

>Do you think that if I made it more execution heavy and less like hack'n'slash it would be more fun? Please tell me more about how you feel.
Looked cool when it was slow and deliberate, like classicvania.
Nothing wrong with speed, if that's what you want, but with combos it just becomes repetitive and shit, in my personal opinion.
Basic mechanics are always better than combo systems, because it let's the player assume more direct control of the character and its surroundings.

>many people
If that was even remotely true, you'd be scummy a con artist.But we all know art is a skill which completely eludes you.
Progress?
>>140930657
I could make it "slower", as in have longer delays. It would still feel like one attack is more important than combo. That would also give higher punishes for fucking combo up and make player approach enemies carefully.
There's still lots of ways to approach enemy. Duck attack is very safe and has long range, but it's rather slow and cant be cancelled to anything. You can dash and continue with upwards slash, but this is very risky as enemy can stab you in the face while doing so. One safe way is to attack with spell (like dagger) and then dash and attack.
I could post gif with slower attacks if anyone is interested how it would affect the gameplay.

Hey, it's your game, m8.
You do as you like.
But combos are just shit.

I'm not claiming to have grown as a creator while everyone working with me stayed a shit for their whole careers. The amount of games I've made has no weight in the argument.
Testing out long range missiles. Did it by changing a few values in the original missile so everything can be data driven as much as possible.
Now I just have to make all the variations of missile/bomb/rockets and everything else.

We just enjoy riling your failure of an ass up.
Please kill yourself soonthat way you might just be able to actually entertain someone for the first time in your life.
>>140931541
Nishikado made many many games and supervised many many games development (per Konami's pushing of him into a managerial position after making THE smash hit of gaming)
i think he is definitely in a position to express what things are important for a game creator.
