| Feedback Friday #444 - Forge Ahead Posted: 13 May 2021 08:30 PM PDT FEEDBACK FRIDAY #444 Well it's Friday here so lets play each others games, be nice and constructive and have fun! keep up with devs on twitter and get involved! Post your games/demos/builds and give each other feedback! Feedback Friday Rules: Suggestion: As a generally courtesy, you should try to check out a person's game if they have left feedback on your game. If you are leaving feedback on another person's game, it may be helpful to leave a link to your post (if you have posted your game for feedback) at the end of your comment so they can easily find your game. -Post a link to a playable version of your game or demo -Do NOT link to screenshots or videos! The emphasis of FF is on testing and feedback, not on graphics! Screenshot Saturday is the better choice for your awesome screenshots and videos! -Promote good feedback! Try to avoid posting one line responses like "I liked it!" because that is NOT feedback! -Upvote those who provide good feedback! -Comments using URL shorteners may get auto-removed by reddit, so we recommend not using them.

| How does IP work when making games as a sole member of an LLC? Posted: 14 May 2021 04:29 AM PDT My question specifically is: If I am part of a one-man LLC and make a game, can I choose whether the IP belongs to me as an individual, or the LLC? Now, this might not make a lot of sense, so I'll provide some context: I'm a solo developer, working from home, who has a published game under my legal name, rather than a company. I am thinking about forming an LLC to enter an agreement, in which a revenue cut would be taken from this newfound company. This agreement states that I cannot transfer any IPs from my LLC to a new company without permission, in order not to dodge the revenue cut, which is fair. However, this means any new games the LLC makes would also be part of the revenue cut. I am currently working on a different (unannounced) game, just by myself. I was wondering if I were to create this LLC, would the IP to my new game automatically belong to the LLC, and thus be part of the agreement? Ideally, I would like the game to belong to me as an individual, and thus I could pick whether I want it to be part of the agreement, or if I'd like to do things differently and keep the revenue cut. Any help is appreciated. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Best books for C++ / Unreal Engine? Posted: 14 May 2021 11:52 AM PDT Hey all, I've been learning C# for a good few months and have made some simple games in Unity - I'm looking to transition to Unreal Engine and therefore C++ and would love a book to learn from. Do any of you have any suggestions? I'd love to know, as there's so many online and I can't decide on one. Thanks everyone :) [link] [comments]  | ||
| How can I make 3d look like 2d pixel art in Unity? Posted: 14 May 2021 06:39 AM PDT I'm trying to find a way that makes 3d objects look like hand-drawn 2d. I want to achieve the look the person in this video does. After looking through a few of his other videos, I found that he uses a custom rendering pipeline and some shaders. I'm not too worried about the shaders, but I can't figure out for the life of me how he accomplishes the rendering. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Thoughts on motivation and originality? Posted: 14 May 2021 10:07 AM PDT So I've been working on a project for a little bit that I'm trying to turn into an actual product. At the time, I felt I had a pretty unique core mechanic, which is why I felt the project was worth pursuing to begin with. Well, I was browsing steam earlier and stumbled on something that's somewhat similar :( Looking further into it, it does seem to have some substantial mechanical differences, but it's also still in the prototyping phase. Anyway, I'm sure this is a position that plenty of you have been in, so what are your thoughts on whether I should continue this project? My motivation took a pretty big hit and I'm scared I'll end up accidentally making a clone... [link] [comments]  | ||
| Would people be interested in text based game without movement or graphics? Posted: 14 May 2021 11:34 AM PDT Hello im new to game development but not to programming i worked as fullstack web developer before and study currently at university. I have idea about a game that mostly text with images rougelike turn based combat and rpg elements like items levels stats etc also will have story with choices. You can also earn resources and upgrade buildings and you can do raid once a week with hard bosses. Is this good idea without any movement or graphics? Im not making for other people or to earn money im making because i want to advance my knowldge in mobile apps since i think transitiong from web to mobile and also i want to play such game but i would still like to know if there are people who would play such game. I also have the idea of the world and story for a while. Im [link] [comments]  | ||

| Vectors: A mini course. Part 1: Intro to vectors. Posted: 14 May 2021 12:38 PM PDT Hey there! I'm creating a series of videos on vectors, starting from real numbers and it'll finish all the way into vector algebra. Here I introduce vectors for the first time and show their mathematical and geometric representation. I also talk about some of their potential uses. Hopefully you find useful info.

| Sending unique game keys to multiple users Posted: 14 May 2021 08:12 AM PDT Good morning from Canada! I'm just about ready to release the alpha version of my game and I'd like to send out alpha steam keys to all my backers who have pledged for it. Is there any way to bulk send an email with unique game keys for every user? I've been searching on the Mailchimp website but it's not very clear... Any help/tips is greatly appreciated!

| Unity vs Unreal : Text based Games with complex storyline : C++ Engine ? Posted: 14 May 2021 10:57 AM PDT I am a programmer who is proficient in C++, Design Patterns, DS&A etc. However, I am new to game dev. I am part of a small team that is looking to create a text based game with no 3D element other than isometric images. If someone is aware of a game called Suzerain , then you will be able to appreciate the kind of game our team plans to create. We plan to invest decent amount of time planning and learning the engine before starting off, so yes this is pretty early and we are open to suggestions. I have heard a lot about Unity and seen several text based games coming from there.

| Question of Unity Devs Working On Xbox Systems Posted: 14 May 2021 06:58 AM PDT I recently released a game called "the office simulation" on Xbox last week, and I have been working on an optimization update for this release. However, I cannot figure out the cause for crashes. There are two points where the game crashes, and thats upon boot up and upon completing the game. Is there a good way to go about finding the cause for the crash? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 14 May 2021 10:28 AM PDT What is a good way to implement actions ? I am working on a 2D game, the player and the NPCs can do the same things (move around and collide, use objects, open doors, change map...etc). So far every action is a class, with a constructor, variables and a "PerformAction" function. Entities have a list of those classes according to what they are able to do. For instance I have an "interactAction" class, a "moveAction", "speakAction"... should I also have a "saveGameAction" ? an "openInventoryAction" ? where do I draw the line ? It works okay for now, but this strategy involves creating and attaching action objects to each living entity of my game world, it feels bloated. Once I'll add the ability to save the player character into another file, I'll have to make sure every action Object is serializable. I'd like to know what alternatives I have, how do you do it ? It's hard to find answers to specific game-architecture problems [link] [comments]  | ||
| What is the cause of this distortion? Posted: 14 May 2021 10:27 AM PDT SOLVED I have been working on a project for the purposes of learning 3d gamedev & I have managed to work past most things that stumped me. However, I have one issue that has existed for the entire duration of this project; When I pitch my camera to look either up or down I get this nasty distortion when rotating the camera about the Y axis. Depending on the axis I have the top of the camera pointing down the meshes either get compressed or stretched. I believe this is a projection matrix issue but I could be wrong; Here is what I'm using to generate the matrix. edit: pseudo code to fill in the variables
I am using Vulkan & doing my dev on Linux. edit: also, I have tried a number of resolutions..the images are taken with 1920x1080 windows the issue is still present but FAR less noticeable when using windows as small as 800x600 [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 14 May 2021 10:21 AM PDT A year or two ago, I thought of an idea for a game I'd like, but it wasn't until a few months ago that I was able to tackle it and actually try to make it in my game engine. While developing it, I stumbled across an announcement regarding a game with a similar structure to mine, being developed by a studio and slated for release in the near future. I did some more research into it and discovered a second game that was similar to the first: in development, created by a team of people, and with a similar structure to my idea. Should I still pursue the game I've been kinda passionate about? I'm worried it might be too similar to these two games (which I wasn't aware of until long after I had my own version of the idea). There aren't a huge amount of details out about either of the indev games, but everything I've seen so far aligns somewhat closely with my idea. I'd appreciate it if anyone here has advice for a situation like this. [link] [comments]  | ||
