Getting started, doing it right, and legal.

Just checking in, 5 days to go. I look forward to it, thanks

I got a painted and an unpainted BG, your choice for prize give away. And I hope people are interested in going further with this

I just think its a good idea to try and recruit from the fans. (Ive asked a few fans and fellow game devs about it.  Like, ive been talking to the guy who made the Atari E.T. game, good advice.. hes been a hero of mine since i saw him on TV when i was 8) Ive been hanging out with a great server of people doing custom Halo maps lately, too

So. Concept art next, and, im planning to have a "5 minute" demo this Fall

an out line, premise, or several chapters would be great... especially if there's no or an open ending, because that'll make people want more, imo, or want to complete that story themselves in game.

im working on building procedural mazes and stuff today for "practice" 40k fangame. Which is basicly just my dreamlike of items id want in a space game, or promised other people if be sure to include (crew being ejected out to Space when damaged during during spaceship battles, and that the planets should be in scale to the ships)

Alot of ideas that I think would flow smoothly into any scifi game. I do want to see fleets of ships, all from the pov of the Player, ground battles the same, so (o working out some ideas of how to "shout" orders to your crew (instead of just hitting a button on keyboard or screen, cinematic stuff)

little Ringworld flight sim turned out nice

I spent most of the day thinking about Ringworlds, and thought it'd be fun to do a simple Ringworld flight sim here on itch. So, day 1.. im hoping to get a nice random procedural landscape going, which might be useful later

It's not ready, but you can look at it on my profile page

I always felt the habitable areas on the Halo were for all the people to be at when the device went off, like, its the safe place because "eye of the hurricane"

But, yes, "clearing a Ring" should definitely be a thing Players should be able to di

it had better be a waterproof handheld i can take to the pool

"the only way to win is to not play the game"

Actually tic tac toe was hard, I kep having X wins, like alot, like most of the time. And realized that was simply because X was always going first.. so fixed that by alternating whi starts first, but then.. X still wins alot (i bet 99% thats from a rng cycling problem and if I added some random nanoseconds the problem would disappear

thank

So, I had a dream about a human made Halo, you know?

Hi, im Derrick thanks for comming here, any questions, just ask

I didn't set up a Discord for the game jam, but here is my personal Discord server, mostly focused on fan game stuff

Myself, I just want to give the Players the feeling of commanding troops on the ground and fleets in space all from a first person perspective

(goth girls would love it), dont change a thing, the colors and sound fit perfect

one of the best games ive seen on itch

unfinished, bit off more than I could chew, and then i got distracted creating digital life, oops. Anyway, great fun, met a few people and learned some new things. Im gonna probably work on this a bit more later, but im looking forward to the next jam

very nice. Like the gravity mechanic (doesn't make alot of sence, but it doesn't need to) great classic 8bit music and look and feel. 

I think if you changed that robot to a cute spider, you'd have a hit

Like specs?

very very good

and, I want to get started on my dream game, a superhero team game.   

Um...  here's some 10 polygon trees of mine from 25 years ago. (I'm relearning alot), so if I get some trees on a landscape, I'll be happy. 

But, any interest in superhero team game?

why reported?

Surely my game isn't that bad

yeah, I coulda done better, I lost track of the goal a bit around day, especially the 1 bit color

I feel good about what I got done, tho, which was just reworking how spaceships worknin fangame

attention would be nice.

I had intended to have zero graphics,  but I didn't finish. 

 I feel i got alot done. The jam helped me get back into my 40k fangame, which I hadn't worked on in months.  

Abominable sound effects is what I wanted, a cacophony of choirs at Terra and then only a single voice when your far out in space.

But "no game", I ran out of time before I got the button commands to work

Here's a vid of me talking about big project

thanks for checking on that. Following

the last 10% takes a minute to load

Hey thanks. It was my very first game jam

cool, thanks

always,  i enjoy doing game jams, the last couple i did solo but i prefer working on a team

(sorry for late reply, i was sick all week)

my discord server for fangame,

https://discord.gg/7pAGAuu4

Unity 

I'm more of a art person than a coder

i need to learn to make some npcs and move them around a bit. and my personal project,

I think that's what happened last time, I did a space orbit thing instead. 

hey thanks, very fair and good advice

i didnt download it, but the presentation on the webpage is excellent

good point about controls and thanks. I'll do those first next jam, good advice. 

the resolution, its ment to be played in that tiny window in the browser, which is set to old NES resolution.. i didnt really make that obvious tho

i figured out that "A" was for Jump.. but i coudnt jump over the first terrain bit. (2 tiles high, but i only jump 1 tile high?)

 looks good. 

very nice, perfect feel for old GBS... i could get it to work after a few mins, got lost in some menu

wow... very nice.
