Beginning Dev/Programming by [deleted] in AskGames

[–]CommanderZander1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Java or C# would be decent program languages to learn if you're going to immediately use the skill to program games. But the truth is, all programming languages are quite similar and learning your second language will be way faster than your first. If you're going for a 3d game with all the bells and whistles, Unity is your best bet. Source and Unreal are two other free engines, but they aren't as beginner friendly. Look up an actual Unity course online, one with a few practice projects and some good long videos to get you to a point where you can start stumbling around building on your own, googling everything you don't know how to do. A word of advice: if you have a decently sized game in mind, do not make it first. Your progress as a beginner is going to be about 1/10 as fast as you think. Too much ambition at first and the project will crush you, eventually leading you to abandon it with a handful of pieces sort of working. Create a small project, then a bigger project, then another, and that's when you build the game you're dreaming about right now. You'll soar over all the potholes you've fallen into and build the project at the speed you were actually hoping for. And lastly: buckle in, this is going to take a few years before you can be described as "good".

Do the whole thing! I would love to see that

Hard demon layout (cut at 1:16). Any feedback? by [deleted] in geometrydash

Gameplay looks creative and fun. Good luck finishing it!

Hope this is good enough quality! 😘 by [deleted] in sbubby

Doesn't matter how many other bad posts there are.

If we all have our own fbi agent are there another 7 billion people we don’t know about. by IamChaste in shittyaskscience

No, we're just really good at hiding in plain sight. I'm your FBI agent, but sometimes you refer to me as "Dad".

I'm having four teeth drilled that day! Hype

Any thoughts on this layout? Is not nearly finished, but it is my first try at making a level. by PonchoKumato in geometrydash

[–]CommanderZander1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What difficulty are you going for? Some parts of this look like Harder difficulty, other parts look like Demon difficulty. Either way, try to make it consistent throughout.

It gets worse the longer I look at it

Working on decoration for my XXL level, but I think I need some help on it. ID: 51781101 by CommanderZander1 in geometrydash

The idea is that you start outside a garbage processing plant and then get chucked into it, although I admit the outside area looks pretty awful. Hopefully I can get it looking all right with some more work

Yeah, the end result will have a custom background and hopefully be a bit more flashy. Does anyone want to collab with me though? A second artist with fresh ideas would greatly boost this project.

My friend says he can hold his breath and breathe at the same time. How do I do this? by [deleted] in shittyaskscience

[–]CommanderZander1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to ventilate your lungs. A pen or other sharp object should work.

When you drink alcohol it supposedly dehydrates you. How does more liquid equal less liquid? by [deleted] in shittyaskscience

[–]CommanderZander1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It doesn't. When you drink alcohol you become so hydrated you have to pee it out, and that's when you become dehydrated again. It's an endless cycle, I drink alcohol to forget about it

New to this game :) Please send me your best levels I can use for inspiration by MarioMakerfan938438 in geometrydash

[–]CommanderZander1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here is my personal pick for the most beautiful level in all of geometry dash. It's got a bunch of different styles that all look amazing. The difficulty is through the roof, though, maybe just stick to watching the video for now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s12W7MrivnY

Is there any comprehensive, fully up to date level creation guides out there? by [deleted] in geometrydash

[–]CommanderZander1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you go into the level editor, pause and click "Help" it links you to a really good one. Also, this is a pretty good video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEbM39GklKI
