/agdg/ - Amateur Game Development General

As if "effects"? That'd be both inaccurate and probably harder to understand.

such as?

I would recommend "Graphical Quality" so they don't think the game's general "quality" is getting reduced.

But yes, most dumbass people won't even open the menu much less get confused about graphical settings.

>such as?
good polish wouldnt hurt you

Fokken nice

Do you think a more streamlined and accessible Dwarf Fortress styled adventure mode would have potential?

What I mean is; the game would have graphics that are better then ASCII, and actually have quests and objectives. But it'd be tile and turn based, and could have the limb/bodypart targeting system of Dwarf Fortress's combat.

Isn't that just Dungeons of Dredmore?

Is it a good idea to use ScriptableObjects in unity for weapon pickups? Say if I'm making a shmup and I want an oncoming pickup to overwrite the currently held weapon, I have the pickup reference a particular weapon SO that contains the functionailty for the fun stuff like the firing pattern and then when the player collides with the pickup it sets myEquippedWeaponSO to the pickupInstance.weaponSO or similar? Then when the player wants to shoot it just calls myEquippedWeaponSO.Shoot(this) so that the script knows where to shoot from in the world.

...

sure, that could work, you could also use interfaces or what not.

his name is BLOW

yes

There's two reasons I believe this was posted. Either it's a stupidly obvious statement as what Blow stated is the obvious purpose of game engines, or it's an incorrect statement as every game engine has issues of its own and no engine can solve "all your techical problems". Which is it?

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

He's being sarcastic, PUBG is a buggy piece of shit and barely even runs on xbone.

OP of this here. Anyone got ideas for new obstacles for the game? Right now there are rocks, which are 90% of what you'll see, then there are lily pads which are used for jumping, fish which are basically just rocks but they move around and there are coins and powerups which are spawned amongst the obstacles.

you know I think that just maybe hear me out anons just possibly I know this is a far fetched idea but it could indeed be that he's being fucking sarcastic.

Perhaps some things that affect the movement of the dingy e.g whitewater that propels you forward, reeds that slow you down.

Who's the better Kyoko?

>my free tool is shit because I didn't pay for it reeeeeeeee

I've been thinking about adding reeds and actually the idea of them affecting the speed sounds intriguing.

About whitewater, would it look too corny if there was just an animated texture or something on top of the flat water surface? Thanks for these ideas!

TOSHINO KYOUKO

I can't really speak from experience but you'd probably get away with animated textures. Maybe throw in a few particles for rolling surface foam that get turned off at low settings.

does marmoboi still post here?

Make game!

...

i was going to use godot but now that ive seen this no

how about this then

lots better

any with bigger, long hair?
short hair is for lesbians or old women

PUBG also has the pretty awful networking that plagues most UE4 games.

I'm learning

Got some intro levels for the wings in. Feels like the movement is too fast.

Turns out if you press ctrl+enter it submits the post.

Are you having fun?

Actually looks great. The "official" one is just a hideous tranny.

final fantasy but your a girl

pubg just had a patch to fix bugs that broke the game and added a million different far worse bugs in their place
they changed the interiors of buildings so people can't get stuck and now those buildings have floors with unbaked lighting so it looks like you're standing in broad daylight despite being in a windowless room in an apartment and holes in the ceiling where you can see the sky and now you can't even play the game at all because you load into a pitch black map and you can see the map off in the distance but can't move or even exit out
it's a complete dumpster fire

Looks fun but it seems like a downgrade from the default movement, but I guess that's necessary to keep things interesting.

Actually a little bit, yeah

She's a just a flat girl (female).

Look up 'Club Penguin Hydro Hopper'.

Not everybody is like this rich fuck to spend years developing it's own engine. These "indie" guy are in such high horses they can't even realize other people's struggles anymore.

>hating short hair
You don't even deserve to use Godot.

That's actually really neat.

im going to use godot to make moe-style long haired cuties and THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO IT ABOUT IT

Your wallpaper should scream "Work on the fucking game"
You do have a game, right?

what's the place where you build artillery?
...isn't it "artillery"?

the official one already has long hair I guess, it's just bunned up

haha
those wahaaaAAAAAAAAAAAACKYYYYYYYYeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyy indie devs! !!

My wallpaper is pure black, no icons.
It represents my soul.

good idea

I have a slideshow of Spyro skyboxes as my wallpaper, I guess that counts.

i have the same background color of my IDE's dark theme as my background
but i also enjoy the simple dark background with small and minimal amount of icons on desktop

grand theft pokemon

Hey same here. But that's just because I always have windows up filling everything, so having pure black means any transparency or gaps doesn't look ugly.

There is nothing wrong with cakes, lesbians or short hair.

Nice

bored so I made this. maybe I should just rip the art style altogether.

I would fund it and play it. You travel and rob kids of their pokemons.
> Gotta mug them all nigga

>tfw you were supposed to be working on your game but instead you spend 14 hours watching porn

My wallpaper is my assistant

She's very charming

>tfw you were supposed to be watching porn with your friends but instead you spend your time devving

What's the point of watching porn with friends? To help others jack off?

>watching porn with your friends

>about to cum from 20 hours porn binge
>suddenly finish my game
what the fuck

>check out godot
>annoying caption bar at the top of the screen
>has a toggle fullscreen button
>the editor literally goes into dedicated fullscreen mode instead of borderless window fullscreen

Haha, what the fuck? How retarded do you even have to be. Literally no productivity application does that. Hell, modern video games don't even do that anymore.

You guys sound like you've never gone to an anime convention to watch the terrible anime porn segments that happen. They get pretty hilarious.

That's so cute user.
And i'm not even into dark souls

Gettin there

>You guys sound like you've never gone to an anime convention
>going to anime cons
>ever

huh, I didn't even know there was a full screen option. But yeah that seems pretty weird

>retards dont understand into context and Blow's background and didnt get the well-hidden sarcasm

Cupsouls' version have a bit more flair to it. Though i guess it might not be translatable into 3d

Johnathon blow? More like Jonathon LAME

Translating stylized 2D perfectly to 3D is super hard, especially when there's a lot of deformation going on.

Looks nice, user. What engine?

Doom.

If really you know his background and sarcasm, it's obvious that he is being a prick.

Wow, that's pretty awesome. How easy is it to use?

Not that user, but Doom engines are pretty great to use and figure out, as long as you're making something similar to Doom.

Is the engine open?

Are you gonna release it as a free mod?

It varies, DECORATE is babby mode, ACS is a little more complex, and Zscript is the new hotness, incredibly powerful, but confusing and with little documentation.

Yeah. GMOTA uses so many stolen assets that I wouldn't dare sell it. That's a good way to get my testicles shattered.
Though I've toyed with the idea of setting up a ko-fi or some shit after the launch of this massive update.

There's like a billion engines, but yeah they're all open source. GZDoom is the most feature rich one I think, but some people use Zandronum because I think it has better multiplayer support or something.

>you will never hold up in a beach house over a few weeks to finish a game with your best friends while eating pizza and drinking coke

Does anyone know an anime artist who does commissions?

should I have mesh skinning enabled in a mobile game?

I want to use Unity for a game where timing and precision is extremely important and has to be exactly the same on every machine (for example a shmup or a fighting game).
Should I just throw all the game-critical code (movement, creation and destruction of bullets/hitboxes/etc, changing states) into FixedUpdate and collision events while keeping all the input and graphics stuff (animation, movement of objects that don't affect gameplay, hud) in Update?

You pretty much have to if you have any 3d animated characters.
