first for terry davis is god's chosen representative on earth

What music does your game feature?

>inb4 muh acoustic guitar or shitty FL Studio remix

None.
Music is the first thing i turn off in games and play my own mp3s instead so i'm not gonna put that shit in my own game

Currently placeholder. I will try my damnedest to compose but I will probably still end up having to find an audiofriend

I don't have yet, because I don't know what music will fit better the game.

What music would you guys want in a racing game?
inb4 eurobeat

WHY NOT JUST GIVE CRITICISM WHILE I'M ACTUALLY WORKING ON IT

It will probably be mostly silent but there will be some secret/special tracks sprinkled around.

It's turn based strategy so you don't want the music to be too distracting. Chopin works pretty well, I don't care for originality.

At least something with a high BPM. I always enjoy House, Funk or Classical music in racing games.

It would have a great soundtrack but I can't afford it.

Shitty Vaporwave.

At first I was making placeholder music until I had the money to buy some, but I've made so much placeholder that I got better at making music and now I'm making musics myself for my game.

why don't you keep the shitposting in the chatroom as well?

BLOB PROGRESS!!!
After a complete rewrite, everything starts to come together yet again!
Custom physics engine working! DNA working! Behavioral code working! Sensing working! Flangellum movement working!

l-lol?

Celtic Folk music

NANI!!!!

>scamming people by selling the old unsupported version
top laughter

Came to tell you guys this.

How is it unsupported? I did a prototype not so long ago.

Why aren't there any active femdevs here? this sausage fest is boring and depressing

If all you care about is a devs gender, then you're here for the wrong reasons.

It's the old unsupported version.

so you are saying that girls can't dev just as good as men? fuck you pig

Please respond.

where is your game

Because I tell my gf to not come here when she's deving and to share her progress somewhere else.

I'm saying you're not here to make games, you just want to fap and or get laid

>be fem
>dev
>post here
Problem solved.

Still functional tho and extremely well-documented.

You also get the discount for upgrading

>grills in vidya

Actually i want to get a qt13 fem dev GF and then fap while i watch her getting fucked by a black bull

>wanting women to make games
Disguising.

this doesn't look very interesting but you deserve a (you) much more than other shitters in this thread

Can i rate without commenting in ld and have it count for my rating score? i am tired of having to make up shit about the game because it was garbage but i don't want to be a complete cunt

wtf am i looking at?

Yeah what said, it looks cool and impressive, but I don't know what else to say honestly, it's not even a real game, just a framework from the looks of it

Maybe he is looking for a VA

This.

>"x engine has better graphics than y engine"
is there anything more infuriating than this statement

no, he was just looking for easy (you)s and he got them

What's wrong with it? Engines play a huge role in rendering, optimization and graphical features.

First time posting. I'm making a Kitty Cannon/Toss the Turtle style game in Game Maker. I've decided to use physics.

I shoot the ball out of the cannon and when it hits middle of the screen I stop all movement on the x axis and move the contents of the room back to mock movement. My question is, how would I go about figuring out the horizontal speed and how much it decreases by each time my ball hits the ground?

None yet. No idea what I'll put in even.
Best I can do is small mediocre loops.

Otherwise if I decide to put something a little more ambitious I have a friend who's good at composing. So I'm not too worried, I just need to find an aesthetic.

Depends on the setting. Fast paced electronic if you're doing something more futuristic (breakcore/drum and bass), thrash metal if you're doing a gritty, mad max kind of racing game.
Really it just needs to be fast.

>DNA
Explain, I'm curious as hell what you did with it.


also reposting my progress on pathfinding

>"What brushes do you use?"
>"What software do you work in?"

>I stop all movement on the x axis and move the contents of the room back to mock movement.
why the fuck are you doing that
just move the viewport

are you trying to imply that engine does not influence what a game looks like?

I assumed all the cutesy anime games with fem protags are posted here by girls to be honest. No grown man would make those games right?

I'm a faggot, does that count in any way?

Honestly you'd probably be better off just writing your own very simple 2D physics for that instead of trying to hack around the physics engine. Just applying gravity every frame and checking for intersecting collision frames would be more than enough.

this. manly men only make manly games
and what's manlier than men fucking other men?
so in other words, real men are gay

now, are YOU a real man?

We have in air movement in the game, which becomes a lot more difficult to deal with when the ball is actually moving on the x axis. The game is also endless, so I want to avoid dealing with insanely high values for the players x position.

>Best I can do is small mediocre loops.
That first clip is actually pretty good as background/menu music. You can even expand it for something more action oriented.

You should read up on rendering.

trance and techno that respects old italo disco ways.

You're saying my game is cute? Daww thanks

I'm a grown man and I enjoy cute.

There is a reason so many women are having trouble finding a suitable partner. Masculinity is dead.

Oh boy here we go.

I'm a grown ass man and I like cute things.

Here is a picture of a rabbit in a carrot car. I really like rabbits.

I like the synth sound I've gotten out for the background but I've always thought the lead was bland.
It's even worse now that people have made me realize the first bar of the lead uses the same intervals as the bassline in Billie Jean.
Ambient loops are super easy to make, you just take a simple synth sound, throw some reverb, and play a little with modulation and aimless chords progressions.

>ping
Is this some sort of networking diagram?

Oh shit I remember this project!
>rewrite
>custom physics engine
What tools are you using? What were your fps before and after? Or better said, what are the supported entity counts before stuttering sets in?

is 90 stages enough for a chalenge mode not related to the story mode?

Fukkin saved

completely depends on the type of game

>calls himself a man
>too scared to like cute

I have lots of cute bunny pictures.

I'd say it's more than enough, but it all depends on the game.

90 sounds like a really big number.
How long does a stage take to beat (or whatever you do in them) in average?

This is a general for amateur video game development.

If you want to discuss modern day masculinity, femininity or other societal and political issues, please refer to two other boards on this site: and/or

You're using FL Studio 12 right? I recognize the plugin sound.

about a minute or two, depends of the weapon you have equiped

Grim dark can be subverted or taken to the extreme for comedy.
Cute only becomes obnoxious.

Are you wearing your programming socks?

Perfect!

Ironic edginess is disgusting

cute != politics

...

Dark comedy is still dark through. I prefer heartwarming.

i can't believe the west i falling because i play video games :(

The opening mission of Wolfenstein II features a handicapable BJ in a wheelchair.

What will your game do to make the less privileged members of society feel welcome?

Nothing. If they want to be pandered they are free to learn deving and make their own games.

What's wrong with Unity my dudes?

>You're using FL Studio 12 right? I recognize the plugin sound.
Not at all. Ableton live 9. I can't really remember how I got the last sound but it's done using the default oscillator synth, it's made with three different waveforms in a row, one which is like a sinewave but the middle part of the wave is the other way around, and then a sawtooth before a sine. Each with a different ratio. Also there's a reverb behind it.
Not ruling out the possibility there's a preset in FL studio that sounds like it.
For the others two clips I've used FM8 for each synth, that plugin really clicks with me.

you play as a amputee in MGSV

Hideo, is that you?

Intentionally(?) gimping certain aspects to encourage asset store use, in the same way that F2P games 'coincidentally' make progress slow to encourage purchases.

no, my name is joakim

C++ is weird

Just finished modeling my t-rex, what do you think?

you're weird

eyes are weird

why does it have the eyes of a prey instead of the eyes of a predator?

Looks very anime

teeth need to be more than just a triangle
eye placement is kinda fucked, those look like they bulge out of the skull while they're supposed to fit inside of it.

So are you

Is it a cutesaur?

Working at tightening the movement. Again.

Probably going to add double jump and the ability to go even faster and build momentum.

...

I could see it in something like Rare.

that run animation is goofy as hell, but i like it.
