| After 2 years I had "sold" one "copy" of my game! Posted: 22 Mar 2019 02:18 AM PDT Hello, I'm making mobile games, one day I had put My Games on Itch.io Website with a price "$0 or donate" (donation version is same as normal version), I got like total 124 downloads on itch (I put there my old mobile games + new one). I was in job and I got e-mail message with information about "You sold Tree Tap for $3", I was like :O, Tree Tap is like 2+ years old game, to be honest I was not ready, that any1 would even donate to it (I was thinking that my new game "Fisherman" got donation, because it's a lot better). I know that itch is mostly for PC games, so I know I won't get any donations or anything like that. My games don't get IAP, so it's first ever "sale" in my life (my games got only ads). I know that this post may look so dumb, but it's my first "sale" in gamedev :O. Right now I'm making a paid tycoon game (gonna sell it on Steam, itch and other sites), and I got so hard times with making it (I got problems with cash, time + personal problems), to be honest, my new game is like 1-2 years still left to release. Not sure why, but the message from itch made my day better (I know it's "only" $3, but someone had donated them to me, strange feel, I'm still newbie and Tree Tap was my 2nd game). Tree Tap is just simple, old idle clicker, it was first idle clicker in my life, not sure why a person which donated chosen this game. What experience do you got with itch.io? For me it looks pretty fine. *I know I'm not rich, and it's more fail than success, but Yep, 1 person had "bought" my game :O, I'm so happy, I was not ready for this moment :P. And I'm so sorry for the dumb post, if it is too dumb, moderators can delete it, sorry. [link] [comments]  |

| Wanted to code my own complex Choose Your Own Adventure game. Ended up making an engine Posted: 21 Mar 2019 05:34 PM PDT So a week ago I just had the idea to create this game where you would have to make choices and those choices would affect the way the game goes ( Good old CYOA concept ). But mine would have inventory and conditions for a lot of the levels and choices. It was nothing too big, just something to pass time. I wanted to write it on my own from scratch so I made a small command line version of it. But as I was writing the game, I just had the idea of just turning the whole thing into an engine that allowed even others to build their own CYOA games on top of it. And well.... I made it everything in it open source. Take a look. [link] [comments]  |

| Interview w/ Caesar III Lead Programmer about Game Dev now Vs in the 90s. Posted: 22 Mar 2019 04:03 AM PDT Hey everyone, My name's Aaron and I work for Firefly Studios, we just released an interview with our studio head Simon Bradbury about his work as Lead Programmer on the Caesar series. Full disclosure this is a video primarily about how Caesar relates to our new game - but there's some really interesting thought about game dev in the video, most notably from [7:55 - 10:03] if you wanted to skip any promo stuff lol. Full Interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bg060gwerHM Thought the devs (or non-devs!) in the sub might enjoy it. [link] [comments]  |

| Unity - How can I create this effect? Posted: 22 Mar 2019 07:44 AM PDT Hey there, I'm not even sure what to call this effect so google didn't help me. I have an isometric concept and I'd like the player to show up behind the walls in the image attached. I successfully made the walls turn clear when the players collider hits a wall, but i have issues with longer sections of walls all turning clear ( it looks strange to have a very long section of wall go clear ). Thank you! [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 22 Mar 2019 09:21 AM PDT Hey! I was playing SSBU, and I was wondering about the AI system. Would anyone have an idea about its implementation? I do not have a single clue! [link] [comments]  |
| Prototyping the Concept—Gameplay Posted: 22 Mar 2019 09:10 AM PDT Hi all, I wrote a short blog post about my process of going from concept to prototype. I hope you enjoy! https://ludditegames.com/blog/bears-on-atvs/prototyping-the-concept-gameplay/ I am curious how my process compares to others. How did you go from abstract thoughts in your head to something tangible? How long did it take you? What are some common obstacles, how did you overcome them? FYI, feel free to use the work I have done so far (open source MIT license), links in the blog. I am using Godot with C#. [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 22 Mar 2019 09:36 AM PDT What does the division of labor look like in an average game development company? Are there separate departments, like coders, writers, designers, etc.? Are most companies small, tight-knit groups, or are they all like EA-size? What positions are in demand? What skills make you valuable to a group? What does the outlook on the industry look like? Is there a ton of growth or is it oversaturated? Sorry if this isn't the right place for these questions. If anyone can point me to a better sub I'll check that out. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |

| Unity - Challenge Me and Help Yourself Posted: 22 Mar 2019 05:17 AM PDT Have an interesting game development challenge? Stuck trying to get that new mechanic to work? Post a challenge for me to try to figure out and I'll try to do it (in Unity), along with a tutorial video if I'm successful. [link] [comments]  |
| What's the best way for me to make sceneries / '' levels '' ? Posted: 22 Mar 2019 11:40 AM PDT Probably a weird question, but i have always loved designing and creating. Been creating music for years and really enjoy just sitting at my computer creating stuff. A few months ago i stumbled upon Far Cry 5's level editor and have spent many hours juts creating sceneries and levels without having any gameplay in mind or even playing them. It's just like drawing for me. But for the past days i've been wanting more options, and looking into game engines or map creators and not really knowing which is the best for my situation. I'm not looking into making a game really i just want to chill and put down some assets and make a cool environment to scratch my creative side. So i've been looking into UE4 and thinking about going for it, i like the marketplace and that you can buy assets and even get some free, but what worries me is the coding. I've dip my toes into coding, just some beginner python in school learning electronics but i'm not afraid to learn the basics and try get the simple hang of it if it doesn't take me thousands of hours and years of experience just to make some small level/environment. Also been looking at unity but they seem very similar just different coding language i think (?) Anyway would it be feasible to get started in Unreal or Unity with no prior experience on engines just to create some levels for fun ? Or should i just stick to map editors in games. I've also looked at the Source one but not really liking the looks of it. Any recommendations ? [link] [comments]  |
| First game, first coding language - Unity Posted: 22 Mar 2019 11:35 AM PDT I know you don't have to be a professional coder to create games now a days but knowing a language helps more then not. So my questions is which of the Unity languages should I attempt to learn and if you have a reason why thats a plus? Javascript/Boo/C# Edit * No prior coding experience. [link] [comments]  |
| Has anyone ever made a legit game with the DnD interface in Game Maker? Posted: 22 Mar 2019 11:34 AM PDT Got started on full time development the last month and I spend so, so much time just learning what individual functions exist and what's possible in Game Maker. Sometimes it's really tempting to just enable the DnD interface but everyone treats it like a joke (even YoYo sometimes). Just curious, if drag and drop options exist, has anyone actually made a whole game utilizing them? [link] [comments]  |
| Discord for Getting Your Game Tested Posted: 22 Mar 2019 11:13 AM PDT Hello everyone, there's a game testing Discord for getting developers and those who want to play games together, so developers can post their games, and testers can try them out, give feedback. You can get feedback on prototypes, full games, ideas, art, etc. [link] [comments]  |

| So me and my team are complete beginners. Posted: 22 Mar 2019 10:49 AM PDT Hey! So recently me and a couple of buddies started a team made for creating a dark themed action RPG, the thing is we dont really know where to start with it all and after i looked at a few youtube videos i decided to ask you guys at reddit for some advice, are there any important things to think of before starting? Any key elements first time game developers dont think of? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! [link] [comments]  |
