#gamedev

I'm back on my bullshit when it comes to board game design. At this point I've all but committed to trying to implement my "Hunger Games But You're A Sponsor" game, but it needs a better title. Currently it's "Bidder Royale" but I'm unhappy with that. I dunno, maybe "Sponsor Extreme"? #gamedev 🎲✂️

no #stream this week, but you can check out this VOD of last week's stream on friday, over at @sideprojects_with_bram ✨

Из новостей : увольнения в «Трудный период» в tinyBuild, Mari 7.0, Baldur’s Gate 3 — игра года, вышла альфа GeoGen. Из интересностей: лучшие практики по Unity LTS 2022, отправил 72 питча и почти не получил обратной связи, как сделать игру на ChatGPT, музыка и семплирование в видеоиграх, почему у вашей игры не растут вишлисты.

There are 15 tabs in the Blueprint Pattern Search and Replace toolkit window that I am making now. (maybe it could become more) I thought that It would be better if I made some enum class to find one within them. I can never remember the Tab IDs of those.

Added some actual camera code this morning. The player can now peek again with the mouse.

Not quite sure about my implementation tho. I use tweens to create the smoothness. Does anybody know if it is a bad practice to create tweens every frame?

I wish everyone a nice start to the week!

A good friend of mine is currently developing a game for his son. A #SNES #metroid like game with #pvsneslib go watch it here : https://youtu.be/qZs92-B2bzc?si=oQqTfpB4-iZoa0Ka

I added an HP bar to the player. Not sure what the fighting system will be like but it'll be pretty basic.

#ChristmasHorse #indiedev #gamedev

I had to turn off the noise from TV or radio. When I'm doing something repetitious or creative, it's relaxing. When I'm rewriting AI code, it's distracting.

Game has a Treasure House/bank. Shouldn't the first one cost the most? Lol. At the moment, 1 bank per customer.

Think I'll add friendsies. If there is only 1 human player, might need a friend. Or three. For when friends just can't be found.

Like a bridge over troubled botland,
I will slay thee down.

Sorry. A little.

#UE5 #GameDev #RTS

Wow. I took away all of the worker break time (which they spent gorging themselves on food) and now they are very efficient!

Oh, no! I am turning into a manager!

#UE5 #GameDev #RTS

We are not going to concern ourselves with why most of the AI worker bots have recently decided to wander while they gather resources instead of staying put where the resources are. No, we are going to champion the fierce independence of the worker class which will not bend a knee to the decision tree overlord and its many minions!

Power to the worker bots!!

✊ 🤓 🖖

#UE5 #GameDev #RTS

Decided there is no food collection allowed until a Treasure House, essentially a bank, is built. No loans for agriculture = initial conditions. AI bots won't starve. They just can't get health buffs from extra food. That way I can get them to stockpile what they really need to build stuff. When building is over (the bank should be it right now), they can feast.

Keeps them from getting ridiculously buffed before first contact.

Stockpiles can be sold. Haven't let AI. Yet.

Around this time last year I decided to start learning Unreal Engine. Around March I decided to reboot an old story of mine into a UE5 game and document the process:

Last night, the whispering from inside of my mind was continuing to make me uncomfortable. "Adding the public getter of NodeFactory will be better than adding an overloaded version of SetOwner" ... Yes Yes Yes. I modified, tested, and sent again the pull request this morning after I woke up. Ah. Living with this brain is not easy.

I made a tweak, restarted the RTS, and both sides are feeding themselves instead of building stuff. Both built barracks, gave themselves 2 warriors each, and began the devouring. This was not the tweak I was looking for.

Made great progress on the little poetry viewer I decided to work on today! (context here: https://mastodon.art/@fletchmakesstuff/111556143430119377)

Poems can be loaded by click-n-dragging a .txt file onto the app. Stanzas are detected by two consecutive newline characters.

The next steps include adding animations, and a few QOL features like changing the foreground/background colors, changing text size, and better controls!

This rabbit hole led me to this fascinating article from 1999 (caution: dated language), about a number of trans game devs from the 1980s, and loved this bit:

"I think being transgender does give you a gift of imagination" ... "There's another factor, which I call the nerd factor. When we are growing up, Transgendered kids tend to be socially isolated. They deal with this by both learning and seeking recourse in their imaginations."

http://www.jamiefaye.com/newsjamiegamer.html

Side note: the creator is a trans woman, Cathryn Mataga, who went on to work on Neverwinter Nights. Early #trans #gamedev pioneer!

#Doom was released OTD 30 years ago. It, and Wolfenstein, were so mind-blowingly good from a technical perspective that Xander Antoniades wanted to just flat-out interview Carmack and Romero. _Software Development_ magazine didn't do "interviews," and "business numbers." I wrote an editorial calendar, clipped potential advertisers, commissioned some articles, and the first issue of Game Developer hit the streets in April 94. #ComputerMagazines #GDC #gamedev

Hey I feel like not enough #indiedev #gamedev people know about https://gamedev.world/

It's on now, it's free. Here was a description from @tha_rami :

"December 9th our team will be hosting the second-ever http://gamedev.world global developer conference. With ~30 speakers from all over the world, the goal of the event is to democratize developer knowledge, break the invisible language barrier, and do it at no cost to viewers"

Lately I've been working on remastering one of my old games, Ninja vs EVILCORP, using the engine I wrote for #EarthsGreatestDefender

One cool feature that I got as a result is the ability to replay solutions, allowing me to replay a simplified tool-assisted speedrun.
