How's that video game coming along, anons?

Please buy my game

Good

Here is a link to a webm with sound:
>>>/wsg/5952997

I am making an anime music video at the moment to see if I can animate anything at all that evokes an emotional response with the viewer. I also want to see how far I can go with implementing automated animation systems. This as a cutscene creation system for my game.

It has camera switching, dolly tracks, look animator, eyes animator, expression controller, teardrop controller, cloth physics, hair physics and a bunch more systems. It is all controlled via Unity's timeline (NLA editor).

So far, I am happy with the overall quality,. However, the storyboard / camera shot list is still lacking.

I am wondering what /v/ thinks. Sorry for the low resolution on the video. Couldn't upload to 4chan otherwise.

>You now remember when chuds tried engine development
Lmao

When AI is more capable and free to use I will vibe code something, maybe I will have to watch an ad every 5 prompts

>>718562005
So where are all the ai games? AI will never make games because it lacks the human spark and is dalit coded

>>718561946
>redot
reddit engine, real chuds code their own engines in holy C

>>718562149
Maybe they will make an AI game engine and you just pick the archetype of game you want to make and answer like a quiz for things you want in the game. Trying to make a game from scratch with AI seems very bug prone currently, coders may keep their job for 1 more year.

very random question but what is this effect called that some visual novels do? where the background goes all blurry mosaic? it's not just a blur/gaussian blur it has some kind of mosaic effect too. I've always been curious

huh. Never heard of that. Thanks anon

>think about making a low effort game with AI slop writing to do the heavy lifting for me
>remember I can't code and can't be bothered implementing even the most basic of design concepts
I was thinking about having a dice roll system with things like one time use tokens to replace the dice or limited use dice that always gave one number, but then I think about the GUI hell of basic shit like having a space on the screen for your tokens and hiding them and removing the gaps when you use them all up, and I just stop caring.

>>718561946
this whole thing happened like less than a year ago. so did they actually have some falling out and abandoned it or are they just developing it slowly and you're pretending like that means they gave up or failed?

>>718563250
they never did anything with it, the repo is still active but all they've done is merge shit from the original godot repo and implement donation buttons

i put in like 2 days of work this month
its a game that could be finished in probably 1 day if i actually tried but i have crippling depression
im gonna try to put some work in right now but id rather play with a rope

>>718563713
it's in active development. features are being added every other month. you will never be a woman. so what's the issue?

Im too lazy, i need to repair my brain

>>718561329
This looks more like Machinima than anything else. I'm a hobbyist 3D animator, my suggestion would be to work on more convincing movements. These look too stiff.

Our Godot game is available.
The other project is stuck in Unity and coming along well. I really like Godot for 2D tweening. Feels great.

if you mean the community manager thing, that is a you issue. just use the engine without giving a shit about the drama/community as long as it does its job

>>718561946

>>718562538
GUI in Godot is pretty easy.
I think it is also easy in Adventure Game Studio, but, lol, lmao.

I had an idea yesterday but today I woke up and it felt cringe. Thoughts?

>>718564701
try getting somewhere with it and deciding after that
I had the same issue but I'm really happy with mine right now

>>718564073

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, the body animations are quite stiff. They are from animation asset packs. I am not an animator at all and this is basically the first cutscene / sequence I ever made.

I bought a Rokoko smartsuit and am thinking of recording the body and glove animations and checking if that leads to smoother body animations.

What do you recommend for improving my skills with regards to animation? Are there better animation packs out there? Should I enroll into a specific animation class?

is there anything equivalent to blueprints in godot? i always liked visual prototyping for small logic scripts.

>>718563942
>Game now runs like shit
you're making an indie game. turn off lumen, turn off nanite, baked your fucking lights, don't make your shadow resolution 9k, and don't make the fucking shadow distance 1200 miles away. shit dude.

>>718564869
it used to have visualscript but it was deprecated, now the closest you can get is some plugins
I think orchestrator is still in development

>>718564869
bite the bullet and think the hard way (possibly with a piece of paper)
visual scripting is a meme, if you are not designing some sort of graph you are just actively gimping yourself

>>718564869
>is there anything equivalent to blueprints in godot?
yes it's called having sex

>>718558570 (OP)
One year ago I decided to change my life, go to university for computer science at the age of 30, and learn godot so i can create my dream game(s). Its going alright, steady progress, but morale is sometimes low because of the fucking AI. My fear is that by the time i release something (in at least 3-4 years), AI will be even more advanced and capable. Whoever thinks AI is a bubble is ignorant or just coping. Its here to stay, it will only get better. Hopefully it wont evolve as fast tho. Hopefully.

Guess I'll wait another few months for them to get merged...

I am almost done with the harvard cs50 and plan to start sicp after before following various godot tutorials to familiarize myself with gdscript and the engine in general. before this i only knew some very basic javascript and i dicked around in rpgmaker a few times but really im starting from scratch!

Probably because all the actual devs who could do more than "search and replace 'godot' > 'redot'" went to the Blazium engine.
The Blazium engine has actually developed their own nodes, most noted one is multiplayer lobby nodes, which they used in their game of Hangman.

this game looks so kino. How the fuck did you manage to make this? I can't even model a main character.

>>718574653
thanks anon! really glad you like it.
>How the fuck did you manage to make this?
So far it's been 8 months of work during my spare time from my actual job and real life. Had to learn to do 3D stuff in Blender and also learn how Godot works, but once you get the ball rolling progress becomes more steady and it's fun seeing the game grow into something playable, so fun I barely play videogames anymore lol. Webm related was the game 6 months ago. Never give up!

>>718574409
nta but i dont care about trannyism in godot- it's just a garbage engine with a trash scripting language and shitty scene workflow

>>718574870
a master never blames his tools

>>718575690
That's in regard of the finished product. A master would not use bad tools as he'd know they're bad tools unfit for his work.

>>718558570 (OP)
Convince me to use Godot by solving this problem.
Godot does not support off-screen render targets for dynamic textures or multi-pass shaders.
This means that Godot does not support a basic feature all GPUs have and is worse than Gamemaker which has a robust "surface" system.
People try to work around it using "viewports" but this is insane. they're not fit for purpose.
As far as I'm aware to this day no one has added custom render targets to Godot.

>>718575690
>a master never blames his tool
a master chooses the right tool for the right job

>>718576181
From what I know the people in charge of repo don't make games and refuse to merge features people have been asking for for years.

That's a broader subject.

>a master never blames his tools
what's the retort to this? (without sounding mad of course)

If I give a master a broken bicycle and ask him to win the tour de france is he just gonna accept the broken bicycle and thus lose?

i dont know what that means but i bet you can hack it somehow. limitation breeds creativity. you think guys making games in the 90s had tools anything like what we have today? figure it out

Dude, most people here just watched few video tutorials.

Still in the grayboxing stage, but I'm starting to hone in on the core game design. There's just a few more systems left to implement before I can start making content for a demo. I've also been redesigning the ui some more. There's still a lot to do on that though.

that pic is retarded because it implies all those games failed because they were woke. Like yeah bro Mighty Number 9 sucked ass because of that, sure.

>>718558723
I already own it, but I'd be willing to buy a new re-release.

added player names (only for hunters when they get close to teammates)

>>718577267
That's nice. Maybe try making the name look like the rest of the UI? It'd all feel more cohesive.

see above

are fonts all free use no copyright shit?

>>718576632
using view ports is the hack and it's stupid and inefficient.
The little rectangle in the top right is displaying a "render target" a custom canvas that can be stored in the GPU. It doesn't need to be part of your scene or shown on any camera, it can just be stored internally, separate to your main render target which is your game window.
It's dynamic and can be used as a texture and in shaders.
even the N64 had this feature, but Godot does not.

>>718577509
I wish. Some are free, others require attribution, and others require a paid license. Check out google or ask your AI of choice about the font you want to use before doing so.

>>718577509
If you wanna be 100% safe from font copyright trolling, you can make your own font. It's not hard you can finish in less than a day easy

>>718558570 (OP)

I make everything from scratch using free software tools only

>>718578625
I don't, but I probably should. Good, successful games like Terraria do it. Sometimes it even gets left in the final version like that obscure Shoot 'em Up background in the final boss of Undertale but nobody cares

Is it possible to create a game with co-op but also a dedicated server that can handle dozens of players using something like Godot, Unity, or Unreal, or would you have to write it yourself?

>>718579061
It's impossible.

>>718579061
Yes.

>>718561946
QRD? Did godot troon out or something?

>>718578094
you want to dynamically change the window size based on stage size? seems fucked up but if you're using a TileMapLayer for your tiles, look up the documentation it has, I'm pretty sure there should be a function or variable for getting the rect size of the used area, then you just multiply the x and y of that by the cell size x and y and you get your new resolution

>>718576636
> KCDII sjw
sensible_chuckle.gif

>>718578094
>>718579579
wait, actually, you might not need to multiply anything depending on what the function/variable spits out, I didn't realize that. if it's the actual full rect of space occupied by active tiles then using that raw number SHOULD be fine I think, if you're unsure try manually adjusting the window size so you know the values it SHOULD have, then see how to automatically reach that value

>>718579579
>>718579738

More like I want to limit my window to 20 x 20 grid cells

>>718579824
I'm still not sure what you're trying to do, sorry. Is it something that cannot be achieved by simply setting the base resolution manually in the project settings?

>>718579974
Maybe it is, I'll have a look soon

>>718578094
Not a Godot dev but you should be able to force the resolution in project settings.
When starting out set it manually to be that specific size, later on when you get a hang of coding you can make it more dynamic (to allow 2x scaling for example).

>>718580614
>>718579974
Found it in the project settings, thank you both

>>718574863

The only redeeming good thing about Godot was its development iteration speed and it seems to become more and more a thing of the past.
And no, to reply to the retard that said the community manager issue was a nothingburger, the real problem here is how she hasn't been stopped by anyone. The people managing the engine agreed with her, that's the problem. And they're still here.

>>718571473

honestly if godot just gets a more performant 3D renderer it could actually compete with unity

3D gets the job done and the physics are improving. How exactly is it worse than unity? Unity is full of bloat and useless shit, Godot works out of the box.

your at least gonna have some fucking elves? fucking dark elves?

>>718583063
>>718584624
To be fair my concern is how they're been slightly bloating their engine because of the 3D. It's inevitable if you want to have 3D you will have to add some bloat to your engine so it can run it properly.
But the bloat always starts with good intentions. We've all seen it happen everywhere else. I just hope Godot is not going down the same path.

>>718584908
maybe! quite probably. Last part of the game will take place in an abadoned elven city, but I'm still deciding on that, and if elves are still alive.

It's coming along slowly. I'm immensely annoyed with how convoluted func_godot is. I just want to use Trenchbroom to make my levels, why does it have to be a fucking project?

Adding in the ability to send both friendly and enemy computer-controlled characters into the air with certain attacks. This also works with enemies that in-fight. At the moment, this works perfectly with characters like Pot Gremlings and Alois Ratatosky.
With Bulldogs, however, it's a different story.

>>718562251

story is barely a draft, there's still room for a lot of stuff

How do I learn UI in Godot? I can't find a good tutorial anywhere. I wish game engines would just copy front-end web design, since everyone knows it and it just werks.

>>718586169
You have HBoxContainers and VBoxContainers that sort of work like a div with display: flex.

I'm wrapping up a game based on a childhood fairy tale. You're a puppet that has to fight evil puppets in various areas as you progress. The final battle is dealing with a puppet your very creator made to steal your heart.
I think it's based personally and am proud of myself for coming up with it!
What do you faggots think?

>>718588247
so, Lies of P but indie? sounds cool

I remember someone saying that Godot is a cult, and then I found a website entirely dedicated to this idea.

>>718588937
Insufferable faggots exist with every engine.
Even if (you) make your own.

>>718563528
Whoa! Finish your game!

the most painful question you can ask a person telling you how great godot is, is "when does your game come out?"

I hope I didn't make a mistake. It's amusing since I have to build from the ground up everything that ren'py kinda just comes with (scrolling text, VN UI, event handler, etc) it's not a problem to make them but damn. I guess I just want the freedom to suddenly swap the gameplay into any other kind of gameplay and not be locked into only a VN.

Shit idk bros I hope this works

Well smartass, what's 11x7? I bet your math's class multiplication table didn't cover that.

It's coming along well

I have been chipping away at a prototype for a Base Building/Open World/Syndicate-like with coop.
It even has a working stock market system, and if your extractors suffer a power outage, the respective resource charts crash.
Also, it has networked vehicles with multiple seats.
You can persuade and take over civilians, but I haven't worked much further on that system.

I'll probably see how Toplitz's next game (that vampire thing) handles minions. I want base building via minions (warcraft style) but I am not sure if its feasible network wise.

>>718594265
Okay what's the white man's language and what even remotely popular game engine uses it?

Game dev is the bottom of the barrel in the tech world. A retarded 16 yo can make a game.
The hardest part about the whole processes is the creativity element. Coming up with something new that hasnt already been done 20000 times and that retards will want to buy
THAT is the hurtle you have to cross when making a game now-a-days

>>718592514
Yeah this is going to be to difficult for what I'm trying to do. I'm going to have a lot of animations going and tile sets which hold variables in themselves.

The beginners mindset is your answer. Even the most accomplished professionals still have that mindset of always learning something bit by bit and going forward in a humble way.

Just give it your best shot that is possible for you then you won't have any regrets.

>>718595993
yeah me too haha

>>718596351
Well you're obviously going to have to "clone" something. At least in gerne. There are only so many ways you do a platformer, after all it is a platformer.
The creatively capital you want to spend on is coming with something original in theme and story. Different characters so on.
A platformer is a platformer. But Ori and Hollow Knight are two different games.

Except you forget that retards WILL buy the same thing that's been done 20000 times as long as yours is "as good as" the others and appeals to their sheepbrain.

It's just that easy

>AI spits out 150 lines of code for my problem

>>718598187
That's a very good point

gradient/palette swap generator is done. basically works by inputting 1-2 colors then it'll create a 512x64 left-to-right gradient with the input as a base and then some quick maths for deciding what the other colors will be.
hopefully this will make future shaders easier to set up.

also worked on the Polyend Tracker + pureData synthesis integration. Still a lot of problems with it, I think I'm gonna drop it for now and use mp3s for the audio. And the workflow is annoying cus I have to
>write/arrange on polyend tracker + digitone
>export stems and samples from tracker
>rewrite digitone patches in pureData
>hope it sounds good since Unity doesnt allow ADSR or mixing for this set up, at most I can inject a vst via the dll import methods and then adjust vst settings for the final audio output from there, but then it won't run on anything other than Windows
Still some cool results despite the limitations (plz note: just basic quick demos, no audio level adjustments or anything yet):

>>718599154
what engine are you on? with Unity you create shader variant collections in order to do that
then either everything is pre-baked at game initialization, or you use the shader variant WarmUp() method to load selective ones while initializing a scene

>>718599342
Godot. They still expect you to use Vulkan for everything, even though it locks out a lot of toaster options due to how relatively new Vulkan is. Nor does Godot support DX11 as a fallback option without introducing middleware that slows shit down.

>>718599562
oh, damn. yeah if you're using godot expect to be locked out of a lot of rendering functionality. iirc they don't allow true multi-pass rendering either.

>>718558570 (OP)
I just got a "shitting spree" on "Unreal Excrement 2025," which is a parody variation of the game "Unreal Tournament" I've been working on based on indian cultural practices. It utilizes the concept of a pipe connected to the anus of the virtual player, with a switch to change firing mode.
How has your day been?

>>718599703
They're working on multi-pass rendering iirc with a compositor being added at some point, but I fortunately don't have any need of it for my current project. I just want my project to not fucking stutter any time I update my drivers or test on another machine.

opinion: anything with multiplayer should have the multiplayer locked until you complete the first "level" or area or challenge, or whatever your games set up is. within this portion of the game you need to complete before joining online, should require you to successfully use every mechanic the game has atleast once.
the idea being that theoretically, everyone playing on the multiplayer branch of the game will have "proven and know" how to actually play the game. make it as short as you want, separate to the main story or whatever.

im thinking games like insurgency or arma or whatever, where someone will join and take the commander or observer spot because its the only slot left/its got a weapon the other classes dont have and then do literally nothing with the role because they literally have never learned how to use the commander class or even tried.

Based on these webms, you suspect you have your monitor brightness settings fucked beyond belief. Get a datacolor spyder or something and try to hit a sane luminosity.

It's not a tutorial but it might give you some useful insights
>Also how does updating godot work, I want to move to 4.5 when im on 4.2
I dunno, I just download the new version and start using that, it warns you when opening a project from an old version and says it will update it which will make it incompatible with that older version, so if you're unsure keep a backup.

>>718609487
I calibrate my monitor twice a year so I know it's good. It just looks very dark and low contrast to me, leading me to believe your brightness and contrast may be too high.

Although I think that's true for most people, many who probably use default settings, so maybe you're actually right to leave it as is. Idk.

>>718610024
>Also how does updating godot work, I want to move to 4.5 when im on 4.2
You just open the project when the new version and Godot takes care of the rest. In any case I wouldn't recommend updating mid-development, you never know what those rascals might break next!

>>718610319
Game modes are usually brighter than normal modes, no? In any case my values aren't anything crazy, and it looks fine on the phone as well. Will test it later on the Steam Deck, that should be telling enough.

>>718608493
just throwing this in there, being able to spin so quickly like that really breaks these kind of games for me, i think the solution is to slow down the turning radius (not painfully slow), but dictate the turning speed by how close you are to "aiming" at where your mouse is pointing. obviously im a shit explaininer, but im thinking
>you whip the mouse 180 degrees to behind you
>your turn speed means it takes about half a second to turn 90% of the way, 162 degrees
>then once its within 18 degrees, turning (rotating?) speed drops by half. fiddle with the actual specific numbers and speeds, but if you do it right, you should still be able to flick left and right and make quick shots at close targets, but not with pixel perfect percision unless you wait just a tiny bit longer for your aim to get perfectly on point.

so you can run straight down a hallway, still flick 90 degrees left, fire a few rounds through a doorway, keep going down the hall, flick 180s to the right, fire another few rounds through another doorway on the opposite side very quickly, and at those short ranges still be reasonably accurate, but not pixel perfect headshots unless you actually slow down.

probably makes no sense, but in my head, this makes smgs/pistols more viable, because you could tweak these to have very fast aiming for short ranges, without gimping longer range rifles. big ass rifles and sniper rifles would have a very slow, "outer radius speed", so doing a 180 will take a long time, no swinging a huge ass sniper rifle in cqb fights, but make the last 10%, that last 18 degrees, 100%. so once youve swung the giant weapon around and have it actually aimed and pointed, it becomes super accurate.

i am teh smratest ideas guy ever. give me money and programming team k thanx.

>>718609825
Generative AI like chat GPT is just a LLM (large language model) meaning it’s not actually thinking but putting words that would commonly appear together, this also works for code. The issue there is that it can often generate things that don’t exist, making it difficult to get the thing you need. Also going of the GPT (General Pre Trained) means that it can’t think outside the box of what it was trained on. So things that are updated take some time to be considered for certain AI based on how they up keep it.
It’s fine to use it but you have to take that stuff into consideration. With people it’s the chance you’ll see someone who has ran into your problem or is very knowledgeable.
There is a difference and you can do both man just be wary.
Chat GPT is bad because it can take away your critical thinking skills if you depend on it too much. (Don’t make it do all the work for you and if you do, make it tell you how each parts works so you can copy the format for different use cases. Overall asking it when your stuck helps a little)

>>718598553
this looks like shit

It's going well. I took a chance and went to a Sonic Adventure Speedrunner Discord and asked if anyone was willing to try my game and critique it. Someone who was a World Record Speedrunner tried it and loved it, but had some major critiques, particularly about how slopes and speed are handled, how hard it is to stop yourself in the air, as well as he does not like how the dash is implemented. So, I made a build with his suggestions in mind to see if I like the changes. and honestly, he was right on the money with a lot of his critiques. The game plays much better now.

He showed it to his Speedrunner friends, and they've decided to try to find speedrun tech just for shits and giggles. Here is a glitch they found that, honestly, I'm not going to take out. It's pretty cool.

>>718582718

for the distortion, I put a plane right in front of the camera with a shader. For the fog, I just change the world environment fog settings lol.

>>718612507
That's not a bad idea. I should try something similar.

>>718612993
Are you talking about me? My friends play my game with me to test online stuff every now and again.

Are you talking about the speedrunner? He and his friends are all pretty thrilled about the game, because they really, REALLY like the idea of a Sonic Adventure-like Collectathon with online co-op and tag modes. The speedrunner I first talked to played it for a couple hours and gave me a speedrun of my demo. He also said he wants to be a play tester for any major changes. He will be the best play tester, because he innately wants to break games and find glitches ha ha

>>718613378
Damn it, that's the only solution I had as well. I think I will just have to learn how to work with depth in shaders.

>>718558570 (OP)
Bros I want to make a Third Person 3D Fantasy game. I'm very experienced in Godot 3D and am a high level artist, I can create pretty much anything in 3D, rig it, animate it and I'm a good painter. But I have a full time job and a new baby. I know making a full RPG alone is too much for a solo dev, but I find making a linear hack and slash too dull. I think i'd like to try for something like a Zelda-like gameplay structure where I don't have to deal with complex character builds, RPG systems or tons of different armor sets / weapons and can keep the "verbs" of what the character can do fairly minimal, but then allow for greater interactivity and reactivity with those limited verbs.

So even that is obviously quite difficult and complicated, so for graphics I want to also maintain a level of reasonable low complexity. I want the art style to be classic fantasy, with some stylization. Something that can have some character and exaggeration, but still represent violence and dark themes well. Think Warcraft 3 or Gothic or Ocarina of Time / Majora's Mask.

On one hand, I could go super low poly retro and do a pure N64 style... but that might not offer enough detail to express my vision... and N64 grows more obscure and niche over time. I could go more detailed and get closer to a PS2 game or Gothic or Warcraft 3, but more detail = more work = more time = less content in the game.

What do you guys think? Basically I want to make a very small Ocarina of Time style action fantasy game with a darker yet stylized low/ mid poly art style... and I'm trying to nail down a targeted art style so I can build out my workflow. Any games I should look at as a refrence of an interesting art style to study?

I didn't replace the original head. I've always had the option to replace the head in any of the demos I've shown to the public. You can choose between the default head, Mario 64, Sonic Adventure 2 Sonic, Goemon and a model that is a special request from someone I know.

If you are interested in playing an extremely early alpha demo, here you go:
https://oshmakesgames.itch.io/ellie-and-osh-demo-day-63

>>718618629
Here's some arms I painted, but want to move away from first person going forward.

Better name? I decided on these 2 from a list I made:

Warp Crest
Void North Star

Warp crests are those things you take to travel to one area to another, and Void North Star was a take on how you're nowhere near home, and thus, don't have a North star to guide you home. So they're both relevant to the game. I think Void North Star sounds more cool, but Warp Crest is more relevant. Just having trouble deciding.

My dumbass thought entrance to Steam Next fest ended Aug 31st but it's actually the 25th so I'm rushing to make a steam page now for submission tomorrow so I can enter it in time.

like your game a lot. only real critique I have is hard to explain/find words for it, but basically I notice the head/face will rotate whereas the hair seems to only face a couple set directions.

like, the face will kinda rotate a bit but the hair will stay static or not be at the same rotation/perspective.

still, really digging your progress and game. I'm not super into platformers but I'll def give it a try and purchase once its out

>>718619039
Did you model them too?
I'm just trying to gauge how serious you are because you can't repurpose models you'll get sued. Because goblin anon is like way ahead of you and then you named all your references already. I don't know if you're humble bragging or baiting the goblin anon.

>>718617542
I can pay you to make my models for me. If you can make half life / warcraft 3 tier models I have a game to make.

>>718621129
So, it's actually on purpose, about the hair. The hair has a certain amount of rotation it does back and forth, depending on the direction the camera is and the direction the character is facing. It's similar to Mickey Mouse's ears. The hair faces more upward when facing away from or directly toward the camera, and it faces pretty much directly to emerge side you are facing when looking left/right.

And thank you very much! I'll definitely make sure to let people here know when it's finished... In a decade.

>>718619321
Warp Crest sounds better 2 me

>>718621493
Yeah. I do everything. Model, texture, rig, animate, code, design, etc. I’ve never repurposed a model in my life.

You can climb the building next to him and hit him at any time.

>>718623537
Well you're my rival in baiting goblin anon I guess, that guys going to be rich. I would say just don't go over board with your ambitions if you're going solo to prevent burnout.

Blender is fine unless you're tying to do something extremely photo-realistic thought you have to be very specific and meticulous with it when moving models to a engine. My biggest gripe with it is the texture tools is non-existent so you have to pull it into another program to make halfway decent textures.

I just want to make a 2d rpg and not use rpgmaker
Is that too much to ask

>>718626327
Godot is right there

>>718619797
fr, some ppl dont have anything better to do. Its all good though, everything is a work in progress right now so its not like theyre bashing anything thats finished

>can't into art
>no friends
>no money to hire artists
the game was rigged from the start

It's not much but i changed the textures of my coal power plant. Get ready to manage incompatible cultures in the same country.

>>718626884
Btw Godot has been surprisingly great and flexible so far although i DO run into some weird ass bugs now and again.

>>718626327
Nephew of black color, learn to code.

It's okay

>>718590082
If something doesn't have the docs, try reading the source code.

>Mild Guns
this is unironically cool

>>718627442
Really interesting gameplay concept, polish it up and get it on Steam Nextfest as soon as possible, I think you're gonna make it

>>718627442
2 things
>give points when you shoot the enemy, not when they despawn offscreen
>text on the 2nd badge needs to be IFF

Needs lots of work, will likely remove the screen shake and need to do a lot of fine tuning for target speed/spawning. No points since destroying the targets within time limit is what actually matters

>What do you guys think? Basically I want to make a very small Ocarina of Time style action fantasy game with a darker yet stylized low/ mid poly art style... and I'm trying to nail down a targeted art style so I can build out my workflow.
unfathomably based, the world needs more OOT-likes specially with a hack & slash kind of combat system. Is doable solo I believe, and I'm making good progress while having 0 3D knowledge prior to starting it out. I don't have a kid tho, so that'll probably take a lot of your time away. But if you already know your coding and your 3D shit, setting up a basic version of the game should take a few months at most.
>Any games I should look at as a refrence of an interesting art style to study?
For that particular style you talk about? Rune, Heretic II, Severance/Blade of Darkness, Arx Fatalis, maybe Enclave but I haven't played it lmao. On consoles, checkout Vagrant Story.
Best of luck anon! Hope to see your game soon.

oh and remember to checkout Trenchbroom, it's great, simple to learn and lets you spit out simple 3D levels at a very fast pace.

anon, there's some fine people at agdg but lately it's been invaded by retarded no-devs. Don't let anything they say get to you, your game looks way better than anything most of them are able to put out so of course they pilled on you.

riddle me this: I set the lights at bake mode static, I bake the lightmaps... should I still keep those lights enabled?

>>718631865
What does it look like enabled vs not

>>718584984
i dont think the bloat will hit godot too bad, what sets it apart are projects, eg. supporting python in godot, lua in godot, other programming languages in godot which dig into the internals of the engine and provide a "new api" meaning someone will get upset if its surface area changes too much. also theres quite a few software in the wild that uses a custom build of godot with just the renderer and not the physics/editor/sounds etc.
godot is quite shit but its extensibility is its redeeming factor

>>718632787
like shit. And I don't get why the goblin looks so dark, there's some light probes right there. Guess I'll leave them on, game looks fine enough that way.

>>718632972
Dude I love your game and am rooting for it so hard. I have no technical knowledge to genuinely help you just wanted to let you know of my support and intention to purchase your game when it comes out.

>>718558570 (OP)
im stuck at the "game idea" phase for years now

>>718632972
yeah I think you should leave them on especially if performance is fine

>>718633092
fuck anon, many thanks! webm is for you, and I sure hope my game is as cool as you hope it to be
>>718633329
yeah I'll probably just do that. Will check performance on my old laptop once I'm done with all the visual stuff. How's a portable GTX 1060 nowadays? Low-tier? How does it compare to modern integrated GPUs?

>>718576636
>Crash Bandicoot 4
That game was kino and 5 million copies for game that presumedly made on lower budget than most AAA games is not failure to anyone other than kikes like Bobby Kotick

any tips on procedural trees? yes or no? i wanna mess with l-systems to grow a huge variety of them.

>>718594724
because a veiwport is not an optimised render canvas (the data and cost of which you control)
it's a whole goddamn camera that wastes and insane amount of processing on useless godot specific shit and screen data.

>>718633725
How does this benefit the gameplay?

>>718633882
it doesn't. i just think it's cool.

>>718634008
based

>>718561946
And it's working!
Those niggas put out new commits almost weekly with all the shit they're fixing from godot.

I'm just writing things up.
Then I will move onto the art.
After that, I hope that presenting it can bring in people who see what I want to make and go 'Yes I will work with you to code this into something that's not RPGmaker slop'.

i want to make an edutainment game, but there's no money in that, the genre literally died.

>>718633870
You don't need a viewport, and you can do multipass.

play my fish gun game /v/ idk how to shill properly

H-HE'S FAST!

>>718633436
This kinda soul is what makes a game great

>>718635639
Looks cool but I'm on Linux and even Wine can't get it to run properly.

>>718636424
probably gonna have to make a linux build
one day lol

>>718635634
that multipass shader does not use more than 1 texture. it just uses 'screen_texture'
most multipass effects would use offscreen render target textures such as normal maps. Saving a custom rendering target to the GPU memory and modifying it in the first pass then using it as data to manipulate the screen in the seconds pass before discarding it from memory.

this is the level of control decent graphic programming requires.

>>718635639
if you can increase the contrast between background elements and enemies i reckon youtubers will promote the fuck out of this for you

>>718635639

I like how the gun is firing full rounds, casing and all. That's not sarcasm, I really do like it.
