/agdg/ - Amateur Game Dev General

I personally automatically see every post with an emoticon as a bait.

hopefully just a placeholder - I'll find a way to spruce it up

Sure, WIP THO

I don't accept mean critisism :)

Post the oldest screenshot/webm of your game that you have.

Last time, on AGDG.

>a naval war game where you play as a giant cannon, shooting ships to destroy other large cannons

I have made a UI editor for all my fellow ncurses friends out there. Files are stored in csv format. There are also some special commands for pulling/deleting rows/cols that are not mentioned in the editor, as well as an undo button and movement shortcuts. It has a bug or two, but I'm fairly certain I've ironed those out. It works pretty well!
If anyone is interested, I can share!

No refunds

this pic is so me LMAO

why is "OOP" so much closer to "shit" than "good"?

draw your own conclusions

upside: water does everything correctly
downside: somehow a ton of other things broke

$60 on steam

shame on you

With pre alpha floating device DLC.

Now to invent some kind of floating device...

Any one got some ideas?

...

I was having collision detection problems.

Kill yourself

Warm water

Thanks to all of you that tried my demo, I got a lot of useful feedback.

Now that this demo is released it's time for artless FUN:
>update and refactor engine for the changes in gameplay and for better design
>add scripting for characters so I can reload them while the game is running and make changes to their behaviour
>make level editor

Going to use Lua for scripting, it's really lightweight and the API is simple.

>160 people in lewd jam

What language is your engine written in?

I'm a programmer not an artist.

We need more lewd progress

Sliders.

Reminder

C++

So the game was never topdown?

You're a funny guy, coaldev

Can I turn off the filters like CA and scanlines?

>use Lua for scripting
It's only easy once you get it. I found the resources kinda lacking to get into it, even if the official guide is very detailed, but once you get your head around it, it is actually fun and easy.

This is pretty much every naval game currently out there except a few efforts

Watch Master and Commander, see how fucking massive these ships are and how much shit is going on in them, and we get to play floating guns with health bars. Sometimes that floating gun is split into 4 guns and each of them is destroyed individually

Not on my watch motherfucker. I'm gonna make you carry cargo from that ship you defeated and stack it in your hold. That's right, raw cargo stacking mechanics. Layers upon layers of boxes. Wanna keep the deck clean and shiny? Bucket and mop mechanics.

Come on, it's obviously going to be C++.

yep.

It's this.

>flat ass lua
no thanks, I'll stick with pawg rubae

the jame doesn't start for another few days

I'm glad I'm not the only one who imagines ruby having a minaj booty

Im realy pround about how the cannon ended looking like

Got make some smaller rooms so the rubberball work better

what does photosensitivity mean? If a menu item isn't obvious then you should have a tooltip/text explaining it somewhere on the screen when you hover over it

Early birb gets the worm

I get the arm comment a lot, that's what I get for referencing Code Geass ever.
A point of this game is my learning to art, so it's going to look amateurish for now.

As for the headphones confusion, her attacks are going to be sound-based.
Also I like those neon cat-ear headphones.

Latrine duty for you, scrub it until it's shiny and warm enough for the Captain's ass

the red text on the top IS the tooltip.

Your game is an unreadable mess. It's like an XBLA indie arcade game.

I don't care

Ah I fucked replies.

It's a pun on "draw your conclusions"
get it? "draw"? artist?

i cant into webms

the first one is the only one that actualy looks good

This is constructive critisism.

Slow, that you? Cause damn nigga you slow

that's not what a jam is tho senpai

がんばる /agdg/

oh shit, sorry.

Didn't even fucking notice.

It's actually god damn funny.

>implying Vine isn't a gigantic turbofaggot and put the first released games on the top two rows, and 90% of normies didn't scroll past them

best pixel font for commercial use? I don't like manaspace

>implying the jam host gets to decide the order the games are showed in

This algae might be reproducing a bit too often

I really like the draw your own one

It's all down hill from here.

>reproducing
>too often

If you enable ratings, you can set the order to random I think

Osaka is #1 waifu.

BRBRBRBR?

Nice multithreading

rate my new frisky menu design

i hope you don't mind a shitty painover. you need to be more daring in taking out those curves; you're sort of going in the right direction, but it's just not enough.

>(d)o not
Made me snarf

ahh there's an important part in the docs for filessystem. Pay attention to where your scripts are in terms of the scenetree. You're only accessing the direct child of a node unless you specify the whole path.

>Game Maker

got two views, view 0 is my "game window" (small), view 1 is my literal window (large).

trying to do something like pic related.

I made an object called game_draw that I put in the room, and it has a 'Draw Begin' code that sets the surface target to a surface it created (which is the size of the view 0) if the view_current is 0, it has a 'Draw End' code that resets the surface target and draws it if the view_current is 1.

What I have is close to what I want, but the problem is view 0 isn't following my player object now, it's just in the top left corner of the room. Any ideas?

You mean the reddit jam that has nothing to do with us?

Get a better font, preferably without aa.

is there a way to learn to draw cute anime girls in one week?

I need to make a couple of portraits like pic related for lewd jam. (This jam ain't fair, I can't get by with programmer art.)

Work a minimum wage job for 1 week and give that money to someone to make the sprites

you mean the free exposure for any half decent game?

Google "chibi".
It's the best you're getting.

>implying I want normie recognition

>in one week?
Copy or tracing is your only real solution.

I'd be curious if people actually wanted exposure for their porn games.

I wouldn't

where does a person like this come from

why tho

that user is obviously shilling Godot.

Ignoooooooooooooooooooooooooore

Anyone of you tried to earn some money with Patreon? Any stories?

Started with a new game and I believe there could be a huge fanbase of hungry people who can't get enough of those kind of games (yes also a bit pr0n).

because it looks noticeably bad, mostly the aa.

Which one of these fonts is the best? I like the last one, but I can't stand the single pixel width line on the a
