As someone with no game developing skills, should I start learning coding or art first? At the same time?

Both

wish i knew how to code bros. game dev seems fun i just wish i knew WHAT i was doing, using these blueprints is cool and all in UE4 but i really wanna get into programming.

Coding. It's the foundation for everything. If you can only draw, there's no game.

what do I read to learn making games
do I just do engine tutorials

Yes. Do as many tutorial as you can and try learning everything you can.

suppose i were to make a semi-telefang clone. give me your thoughts

...

I'm working on something but I'm not too sure about implementing a meme feature that would require the game to be always online. Not DRM related, not even something the majority of players would ever see. But it will probably wow the few that see it.
Yay or nay?

I remember watching those shorts with this characters on newgrounds. Hows the game going?

Well, I would not make the game be always online. I would enable the feature if the game can connect to the internet, but not mandatory. Unless is an important mechanic of the game that really requires it of course.

it's got lasers in it now! update march, EA in april, 1.0 this summer.

Well, I would just write them that I have a Masters Degree in Mathematics, and I have a recommendation from my internship as engine programmer where it says that I can code like a pro.
And then they will hire me.

If anyone has a small project that is mostly done and just needs 2D art assets, let me know.

Well, not him, but I AM the engine guy.
Also, if you just do scripting, then probably less actually

Ahem
>engine guys

Furry

Engine guys are the only real game developers. The rest are going to get replaced by procedural generation in a few years

Dunno man. Seems easier to automate "get physics right and make this look good" than "come up with an original and fun game concept"

is unity any good for Street Fighter-like fighting games?

“Make this Look Good” is the Artists.
“Get physics right” is the regular programmer.
An interesting game concept is what the director does, lol. That’s one person. So it’s left with the director and engine guys

A nice offer but I am extremely picky, though if you can pull off anime fighting game designs/animations you are probably my guy.

I made the mistake of going to university and learning about how everything I do is wrong structure-wise in programming and now I feel like a fucking cripple because I constantly overthink everything but don't actually have the experience or skills necessary to plan with design patterns. I'm staring at a barebones game loop currently completely stalled because I can't decide how best to implement it. And the worst part is it doesn't matter. I'm not even making a game at the moment all I want to do with this project is figure out some pathfinding shit.

i dread the day i have to hire an artist. i assume i'll have to sift through piles upon piles of memey pixelshit before i can find one decent artist

what are you finding difficult about pathfinding?

Draw your structure on paper first if you can't do it while coding.
There's a reason why CS courses teach you how to design your software on paper.

SFV was made with Unreal 4, if that means anything to you.

you know nothing about gamedev lol

The moment you see those frames or load times improve from threading is always great. Did some of this yesterday.

There are many images I want to unsee every day I browse for artists. Pixelshit is a very minor offender in comparison.

Nothing yet. I haven't got to it. I just need a place in a game environment to play around with the various algorithms (mainly Dijkstra and A*) so I can write custom neighbours functions for them so actors can skip nodes and jump and shit and test how fast the implementations run and stuff. Life was so much easier when I could just spaghetti code everything together without guilt.

Yeah, you're not wrong. I've tried drafting UML diagrams before, but I don't really trust my understanding of separation of responsibilities or anything.

Thanks gents but I can't find anything that covers the exact case I'm trying to reinvent the wheel to cover. I'm probably just massively over-complicating it but that's life.

steam doesnt do shit to promote indie games so yours will be lost at page 10 of new releases list. By the end of the day. Assuming 10% of people review games they buy, you'll sell like 100-400 copies.

Nah, I remember checking a thread on here, and saw user showing off one of the stages that appears in the trailer (city level) and one of the bosses (the green caterpillar)

In a sense, I feel this is correct. I need to find someone who specifically wants to be invested in the game and can see the full picture like I do, and not just outsourcing artwork to some random person. I have always known this, but I view this as step 2 of my contract work because I cannot get people interested in a game that has shit art. 2 hours of an artists work will get more attention than 2 years of programming.

You're probably right but I also got a bad feeling I'd be absolutely shit at it

I know exactly what you mean. I think you should think about why structure is important, and how it will benefit you in the future. It's not like someone is going to be auditing your code, it's all about your own benefit. And, if the horror stories I've read are true, I'm pretty sure that most production code is absolutely godawful in many respects.

Don't forget, iteration is important! Better to make the same project 5 times over in the time it would take you to do it once.

Questions without answers are useless!

being shit is the first step to being great

At the moment the best way to learn about that is to dissect other game engines and again, learn from your own experience, you shouldn't be writing an engine if you're a beginner and don't know what you need

Zoomer autist

hitbox is a zoomer word
usually they arent boxes, they're spheres, capsules or meshes

Hitbox has been around longer than you have you zoomer.

I'm 33, and they aren't boxes

it doesn't matter its the term used.

A hitbox is an invisible shape commonly used in video games for real-time collision detection. It is often a rectangle (in 2D games) or cuboid (in 3D) that is attached to and follows a point on a visible object (such as a model or a sprite), though circular or spheroidial shapes are also common.

the term 'hitbox' comes from fighting games, where they were actually boxes. in 3D games they usually aren't. It's a misnomer

There is no such thing as an incorrect term. You fucking idiot.

They are, because it is very simple to calculate if 2 boxes collide with each other (thanks based math). Polygon based collisions very taxing.

well you clearly are a delusional faggot, lol

It isn't actually, ellipsoids are easier and usually have more desirable collision properties, which is why they're usually spheres or capsules

I've got no idea where to start. I need to learn everything from scratch; how to draw, how to model, how to code, etc.

if I make a game free, but accept donations, can I use shit like very obscure japanese songs no one will ever recognize without being sued?

this, love2d is arguably the best 2d game engine out there.

looking forward to seeing more raylib in the future tho

no

I guess so, but I use royalty free japanese music just in case.

I've actually had an idea for a game for a while and worked out most of the plot and stuff, but aside from being an idea guy/writer, the only thing I'm moderately decent at is music.

>It literally isn't up anywhere
Even libgen? I don't believe you.

When its ready. Aka never, god help me I want to die.

Was this the game they showed off at the Yea Forums awards thing? It actually looks pretty cool.

Do you hate unity by now? Are you going to switch engines after this game?

MV devlet here, what do you mean by this?
Making cutscenes? What resources?

Agreed. It was good for a few laughs in 2017 but that kind of self-hating "haha I don't want to be alive anymore, hey does anybody else avocado toast and nihilism you guise" schtick doesn't wash anymore. It's not compelling, honestly I'd suggest getting a grip when representing yourself and your game, even on an oceanic card counting chatroom

I'm also making an RPG Maker game!

I'm trying to make a Chrono Trigger style game in Game Maker. Is RPG Maker capable of Chrono Trigger gameplay, or is it mostly for basic Dragon Quest style games?

Maybe you should take a break from development and do some PR work. I say that because I foresee a lackluster release due to no real exposure or marketing plan. If you make the right contacts it could ensure the game launches strong. But as is now visually, I think pic related (from one of the trailers) sums up how it's going to go, except that most people won't even give it that and will skim right over it.

Point blank, no matter how much you polish this game the current visual style is your biggest hinderance on launch. If this were released by nintendo and associated with a known IP it would soar but without that you have no strong selling point. The good news is that with the right tweaks in color/theme/other stylings you can end up with something completely unique and that has a strong draw to potential players. I'd recommend watching Alexander Bruce's gdc talk on Antichamber and the lengths he went to to distinguish both himself (when shilling at conventions) and his game from the rest.

It's capable of anything you can code in javascript, but there are definitely pre-made scripts that add the movement and combat if you're looking to have somebody else make most of the game for you

>pre-made scripts
I may need to explore this if it makes development faster, or at least to test things out. What would I need to do if I were to look for pre-made scripts?

Otherwise, yeah I don't know anything about coding. I am trying to learn though, and I'm doing what I can with GML.

Middle ground. Go for an engine that'll let you get started without much code but will really let you fly once you bother to get off your arse and learn.
I learned to code because I found a plugin that was 95% suited for my game but wasn't perfect, so I learned some basics to be able to tweak it, then I tweaked some others, then I rewrote whole blocks of another, then wrote my own.

Just learn enough to tweak, then learn a bit more to tweak a bit more, then do a codecademy or something to get enough to write your own stuff, however small, it builds into something more and within a few months you'll be coding and actively looking to get better.

This guy makes something that'd allow for what you're looking for, mechanically. He's using all default art assets here, but imagine how it'd look with actual art.

I really like MV, it's a nice, humble little engine and is capable of some really neat stuff if you want to get to grips with javascript, like I said here

I CAN'T FUCKING DO ANYTHING. I used to make music for games for a living but now that I have quit my fulltime job doing just that, and I have some passion projects lined up I'm just not into them at all, like I'm burnt out and not passionate for anything.

Any samples of your music?

Listening to your stuff, not bad so far. What passion projects are you trying to do?

Been working (or more accurately, not working) on my first prototype level since 2012. It's still not finished yet. Maybe I should give up at this point. Doesn't help that importing it to GMS2 breaks things so I'm thinking of rewriting the game from scratch on the new engine so now I feel even less motivated to work on it.

Sorry, but that's not trying to learn, that's living in denial of the fact you're clearly not that into game development.
We all do it, for years I liked to hold an image in my head that I was an avid reader, that what I wanted most was to curl up on a rainy sunday with a book, but after a year of rainy weekends and not a single book read I had to let go.

The stuff you've been doing instead these last months must be what you like doing, it's time to come to terms with that and be okay with it.

Right, but nobody gets into game development to survive, man, just like you don't play video games with the expectation to live off streaming.
Game development is not a viable job path for individuals unless the hobby project you worked on after work every day suddenly explodes to the point where you can afford to leave your job.
I mean, by all means try to prove me wrong, and I would 100% hope that it works out for you and love to see you post progress, but it's a dream that's not going to come true for most people, no matter how hard they work on it everyday and you're not even at THAT point, yet.

If you don't want to work on it despite having all the time in the world, let that tell you something. Life shouldn't be this hard, man. You're holding onto something like you want it, but I'm just suggesting maybe, in your heart of hearts, you don't. And that's perfectly fucking okay, by the way.

Dude, cash out the money. A good artist is 3-5k a month.

you sound like you're projecting hard

that's generally not something you do in video game animation

If I want to animate a mouth for example. Can't i just fuse the two lips polygons for a smoother result in the closed state ?

Attached: 1501669201723.gif (512x807, 469K)

I dont think anyone has ever done that

These posts are funny. I will have to remember this.

If you change the amount or the order of vertices you're basically breaking the reference point for skinning, so at best you 'll get errors (like seemingly unrelated vertices moving), at worst it'll just won't work.

And i don't see how a fused mouth will provide a "smoother" result.

>Can't i just fuse the two lips polygons for a smoother result
that's not any smoother that just clipping the top lip into the bottom lip
mesh deformation is reserved for things like real-time destruction, not character animations

Hit a sore spot, did I?

no, you're just make a large amount of assumptions about someone you know nothing about and exaggerating how hard it is to make a living off games

>And i don't see how a fused mouth will provide a "smoother" result.
Imagine something like pac man. How can I have the perfect looking sphere again with a closed mouth ? 100% sure it will look like shit if I just make the two lips overlap

Job development is like any other job, not some weird dream come true

>100% sure it will look like shit if I just make the two lips overlap
that's what the rest of the world does, not sure why your case is any different
for pacman you just set the vertices from the top lip and bottom lip to the same position, which is no different to the renderer than sharing vertices

>Job development is like any other job
Well yeah

Game = Job, fuck off brain

I'm working on my first game at the moment.

The game I really wanted to make was a turn-based game in Gamemaker, but even with small tutorials I just don't have enough information how to create decent A.I, which I have no idea how some many games manage to overcome this situation

what kind of game is it?

I assume they move? otherwise just make weighted skills and skills that weigh more are more likely to be used

I don't want to reveal any information until the game is at a playable state, since the concept of the project I don't want to reveal until proven. All I can say it that it's a new kind of Dungeon Crawler that I'm shocked no one has created yet.

It's really the que of choices. getting basic pathfinding and attacking is fine, but when you have to add tactical deptth to the a.i from a whole series of actions and using the map to your advantage, I'm always going to to have stupid A.I unless I can figure how to tell it to play correctly.

Thanks for the answers. Most of the things I'm aiming to animate are liquid looking blobs with eyes and mouths.

>space anchors
On one side I'm dying for a new Freelancer-ish game and willing to tolerate a lot of bullshit for it, on the other side this is such a fucking heresy physic-wise ...

the easiest form of tactical AI which you can see in some JRPGs that allow you to program your party members, is you have a series of ordered conditions, and it goes through them each frame to find an action, like if health < 10% heal self, if party member health < 10% heal part member, etc

>clipping will look bad
>posts an example where the top lip clearly clips into the bottom one.
Good job, buddeh.

I mentioned movement because it's the only thing that really brings choices for AI in turn-based, otherwise making it exclusively target your weaker characters would feel retardedly frustrating

They're not anchors in the sense that they keep ships anchored physically, they're metaphysical anchors that keep larger ships from being consumed by eldritch space storms and brought back as ghost ships.

That's even dumber.

Got some decorations done, i'll probably invest in some localized post-processing volumes, to get different parts of the dungeon lit differently. The biggest struggle is wanting to make everything lit with "real" sources and not have some bullshit ambient light a-la DS3, but also make the player actually see fucking something.

Attached: spellfist_halls3.png (1538x962, 1.81M)

Should I bother learning to program from the ground up like a CS student or should I just dive in and shit out a game?

It's amazing that neither Unity, Unreal or Godot have ambient light volumes.

Don't listen to anyone telling you to learn the "fudamentals" first. Yes, if you have a passion for learning the ins and outs of anything it will be immensely beneficial, but you'll more than likely just get burned out on the details.
Most people who make the games and professional software you use every day don't know overly much about the languages and technologies they use day in, day out. They know enough to get the work done.
And the sooner you get the endorphins from seeing a 3D sphere roll on an inclined plain that you control with keyboard input, the more likely you'll be to stick at it and release your marble madness clone to Yea Forums's ire and disgust.

>ambient light volumes
That's like 10 lines of code (in unity)

Dude same. had a path to be a graphic designer, then decided to add a minor in CS, and need to learn maffs again.
Is there a way to just learn this stuff on youtube and free websites or should i go to school to learn C++?

who the FUCK came up with blueprints

Attached: aaaaah.png (1266x545, 117K)

It's actually a complete rewrite of the entire lighting engine. It's currently impossible to have local ambient volumes in Unity.

You don't need to cast if an object is already the class you're casting to.

thought the same thing
doesnt work
no clue why but it just wont work
pic related WONT WORK

Attached: aaaaAAAAA.png (815x273, 31K)

You're doing two different things

When you set an object variable it's already a Dialogue Object reference, so you can do straight object->set dialogue ref->get text
When you're trying to get text directly out of it then it won't work.

So in here you can directly connect object to Dialogue ref and then get the text, but in you need to cast, because your "object" variable is just an "object reference" variable, not "dialogue object reference"

ambeint lighting is a variable you can change via code at runtime.
use trigger boxes
on enter trigger - fade to desired color/strength.

I'm talking about local ambient, as in making one room darker than another without changing the global ambient lighting or making use of static baked lighting. Cryengine has these in the form of clip volumes.

You can use individual post processing volumes in UE4 and tweak ambient lighting for each one independently, you can also make them overlap and it'll blend between them as you go along.

>without changing the global ambient lighting or making use of static baked lighting
I think i see what you mean, but that seems to be a very niche thing that even many very acclaimed AAA games seemed to work without..

That changes the whole ambient light and not just inside the cube but it's such a subtle difference that it doesn't really matter.

>That changes the whole ambient light and not just inside the cube
What? That's only if your post-process volume is unbound, if it isn't, it's effect will only work inside the volume bounds.

that dont seem to be cuttin it
diag ref prom and 'object' are both object references to the 'dialogue' blueprint class (which holds the text), and when i simply try to get the text from the dialogue blueprint class this way I get jack squat
are widgets just fucked or do i have a truly small brain

Attached: worm time.png (1538x421, 88K)

It changes the global ambient light while you're inside it, I'm not talking about the range of the cube itself.

i think what he means is that you can look into that room from the outide and it has this local ambient lighting.
Otherwise I'm not sure what he means.

Like so

Attached: ambiance.webm (1414x718, 2.34M)

Oh, in that case, yeah, there's no good solution except placing fake ambient lights (i've seen those made for UE4 for real cheap, performance wise).

Yeah, this is what we were talking about.
You can easily do that in unity and probably unreal, too.

You're guessing right. Like how if you're standing outside during the day and look into a cave or a tunnel and it gets darker where the light is occluded. While this can be achieved with baked lighting or UE4's DFAO to a point, in a fully dynamic situation there's no real solution to adjusting the ambient light of a specific area.

If I want to make a VN what should I use? Unity or gamemaker for 2D?

You're definitely making up problems for yourself being and artist doesn't make you a certain type of person maybe just look for a good fit for your project, if you care this much about it than you'll find someone who can do it right and help you create your vision.
Or just do it yourself and fuck it up bc you're not properly trained. I doubt your game will be good anyway.

Unity and Unreal are the chad engines

t.assmad artist that got called out
>not properly trained
Anyone can learn art if they want to, artists have an inflated sense of self-importance for some reason, acting like nobody else can pick up a pencil and start learning if they want to.

>I can't imagine working with an artist who does take a "it's good but it could be better, do it again" once let alone several times before going full butthurt like a woman and disappearing.

but you need to pay people if you want someone who wont flake

>not properly trained
artists don't need 'training'

Yeah I thought so, but it's even worse than that. This time I've already put 8+ hours of work into this sketch alone with my poor and slow editing skills, which will all be useless because I have pretty much decided the design is not save-able. But my standards for this character are really high, easily willing to put 1-2k into this design since it would be the poster character.

that's silly. graphic design is a skill.

You have all the tools to do so, so JUST DO IT!!

>artists don't need 'training'
What the user said, art is a skill and like all skills, you need to practice and hone them. You're not going to become masters at art in a few hours, same rule applies to every other skill like programming, music, etc.

Just learn a skill, m8. Your main goal should be to learn programming and then one or more secondary skills like music, writing, or art.

okay, I'm pretty good with FL Studio (that's a thing for making music) ask me anything!

Skills can be acquired. But if you dont work for it you will never develop any skill, also failure is a great teacher, dont be afraid by it. Fail, fail harder and faster.

It is way too hard, mates. I'm losing my energy.

why do people think music is relevant to gamedev

I don't like chiptunes at all so I don't make them.

I can't make a game without music.

finish the game and then get someone else to do it
music is something you can put in right at the end

what

That sounds more like a creativity problem than a skill problem. I genuinely don't know any good solutions for that except for maybe just practice new things until you start being creative. I seriously can't help you with this one.

How can I acquire a unlit shading style but with shadows working on my character? My character doesn't look smooth unless I use unlit..

Artists vary as much as any other group of people, don't be dense. And iteration is a critical part of the creative process anyway, most artists provide a draft for feedback and then will iterate on it.

I donwloaded it last week, what are some good sites for free instruments/sounds ?

look up:
>Sonatina Symphonic Orchestra for Directwave
very good workable orchestra that someone repurposed to be used in FL Studio natively
>DSK Free
download everything from here

>manifesto website
what public place are you planning on shooting up my dude

So I notice people go this route a lot when providing "constructive criticism". When somethings unfinished, it's safe to assume the glaring "issues" are things that are WIP.

yeah that occured to me but I've seen alot of indie games with UIs that look like that on release

Where is the object "object" being defined?

Should i even bother with RPG Maker? I've tried some camera plugins and they're not giving me the satisfaction i need by being absolute dogshit

This and set the central point to that dead char with the camera panning halfway between the talking char and the dead guy.

Good graphics.

nice bait its just a fucking glorious trainwrecks post lmao

Thanks, will check this out

>tfw making a living on gamedev but feel like I just hacked my way in

should I go to school for programming, or just continue to hope game engines remain easy as shit?

get royalty free shit nigger
there are tons of good shit you can find that was never used anywhere else

Adding to this guy, I'm fascinated by the collapse of governments and I read journals of people that can be verified to have survived those collapses. I'll never forget one line that talked about a dude that had materials and weapons but was all alone and the scavengers only had to wait for the hoarder to get injured or sick. It was something like "He had plenty of arms, not enough hands"

in the widget itsself

I need to rip a few more sound bites from Tsuchinoko, and edit her last line to "So they DID go extinct after all" when she clears a stage.

I don't want to use the original dr. Mario music, but that Youtube remix with her screaming doesn't exactly work as game music either. IDK. I might look for some help on that part.

The engine works fine though and all the menus and stuff are more or less finished. I just need to design the last 20 puzzles.

nice waifus

don't use the source engine nigga
it's a fucking mess and not even valve know how to use it

that CS:GO battle map is pretty well crafted for a fucking BSP based engine.

Play videogames, listen to music, watch movies. Inspire yourself by things you actually enjoy, and think of ways on how you would do it or how you would improve it

It's going pretty well.
Making a porn RPG maker game, but with a decent focus on the non-porn aspects as well.
Commissioning artist for the sprites and CGs, got the concept art for 3 party members being worked on now.

Tempted to just make a Hollow Knight on Unity and hire some student artist to do all the art for cheap.

>Artist
>cheap
lol

Hollow Knight was made in unity
also art is one of the most expensive parts of game making unless you do it yourself

>tfw gf is a good 3d artist
hmm might duo

What is the easiest language to pick up that has good, consistent guides? Every time I try to follow a Unity tutorial, they're always using different versions and things are in different places.

Enjoy ruining your relationship when she doesn't stick to deadlines or outright doesn't want to do the project anymore.

Idiot.

lmao yikes, try not to be too salty...

The most important part of a game is always the programming, sure. You can't have a game if you don't have code. But art/music, etc. can really bring a game to life and have a lasting impact on players. I think beginner programmers put too much importance into art and music, but when programmers start to git gud, for some reason they then think art/music are completely pointless.

Fuck off with this shitty advice. I hate games with bland royalty-free sounds. If you want your game to stand apart, you need to learn how to make music tailored specifically to your game, (or get someone to do it.) Give me memorable themes or otherwise unique sounds that I can associate with your game.

Royalty-Free should only be a last resort if you really can't/don't want to make your own music.

Someone's projecting...

t. no royalty free finding skills

Why would I be salty about you being an idiot? Is English not your first language?

Nice samefag.
It's a well known dumb ass movie to get into a project like this with a girlfriend or boyfriend.
You're clearly underage though and will have to learn that the hard way.

Do you set the object when you construct a blueprint? If you set dialogue reference in the widget you don't even have to make your GetText function, it'll pop-up in a drop-down list when you click Bind on your Text.

Well yeah, that's the point. Make your own music and you don't need to find royalty free music at all.

Can i make a game in Unreal if i do not have artists to make models for me? I mean i want to make it myself, and i am working on Unreal, is it even possible?

So what's the easiest game dev suite? I'm autistic of brain problems.

Don't know if you've considered it or not, but I hear the new version of Blender is a lot more newcomer-friendly. I recommend giving it a shot if you want to learn 3D.
