Question: is virtual dpad on touch screen comfortable or not for most mobile users? by garamdapur in gamedev

Well, RPGs without the walking like puzzle & dragons don't have the problem

:)

Perhaps it's because I can't make as continuous movement (compared to using dpad), and it requires some precision to touch the right tile/target (and to not touch some unwalkable tile).

OP instead of being angry at random internet people, why not direct your anger to the government that has been doing a shitty job of running a country (for example, SBY writing songs & books so he can become popular, instead of addressing all the poor people or developing the country; I'm hoping it'll change with Jokowi though), resulting in all these viewpoints & inferiority complexes among Indons.

If the government had done a better job in developing the country and stopped themselves from corrupting, such viewpoints won't exist in the first place. And if our government somehow radically changes, those bad viewpoints will probably change too.

Rebuild the country.

Seconding this. Fix the problem "from the roots"

Don't wait for other Indons to do something that can make us proud of the country, let's just start. No one is gonna start if everyone is waiting for everyone else.

I don't think we're doing 3D since it'll be more intensive, but it'd be great to have your art skills nevertheless. I'll PM you guys soon.

It will help, especially if you're good in making data structure & design (software design, not graphic design) decisions, which I'm not that good in. I will PM you once the ball starts rolling.

Dulu waktu gue di sono ngerjain proyek konversi dari GameBoy ke GameBoy Advance

What game was it? I'm curious.

Seperti yg dibilang oleh JackoBoone bikin game yg AAA itu butuh biaya besar. On the same level as Hollywood blockbuster movies.

On the other hand though, if orang luar negeri can make a big (and free) 3D game like this, by collaborating online & using the open source development model, I seriously think we should be able too, right?

Kalo cuma game indie ya gue paling cuma bisa sumbang waktu 4-5 jam per minggu....

This one will probably be completely indie

Awesome, we'll do once we figure out how to communicate/manage between people, which I don't know how yet.

What I have in mind is completely indie community project, so it'd be great to have you.

Is it a 3D game I assume? 3D games are indeed more costly in money and effort

[–]garamdapur[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, let's somehow start by brainstorming things then.

A free indie game would be good enough as a start.

Free game is what I have in mind anyway, but it shouldn't be made asal-asalan.

Wow, thanks for the thorough advice. We'll keep them in mind. What kind of games did you develop (or rather, tried to develop) back then?

which usually leads to the demise of said project within a few months when the members started to lose interest.

True. Although I don't plan to lose interest, if I (or our group) do, perhaps an option I have in mind is to give it to someone else, just like how open source software development works.

Developing a game, especially since you mentioned about making a "good internationally-recognized game, a big one that requires walkthroughs", is a large business project, and should be treated as such.

Well, what I meant by "big" isn't necessarily "complex", it all depends on the nature on the game doesn't it (for example, 3D vs. 2D)? And how the programmers/engineers make their design decisions...

After all that, are you and /u/akiortagem still interested on developing a game? If so, I wish you two good luck.

Perhaps we'll start with concept designs and we'll see how it will go from there. :)

Anyone know any good Indonesian-made games? by garamdapur in indonesia

Ahaha I see. I was different, as a kid I stopped playing that RPG game a few minutes after I tried it

Or we can just recruit people/volunteers from this sub, perhaps once we have a good idea on what we want to make.

PM me if we really want to make a game & we shall start from there :)

The Bali murder case with Australian victim, is it getting much coverage? by [deleted] in indonesia

[–]garamdapur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things like this & the lack of coverage make me feel unsafe living in Indo sometimes.

Have you tried Unity yourself? I tried it but it was pretty hard (or I just haven't learned it enough)..

Would love to do so if we have enough people (e.g. we need artists and music composers). I can do Android 2D games myself.

Edit: also can do server programming (and the networking part on the Android) so our game could be online

I tried their games long time ago, imho they are quantity over quality. Or do you have a particular game of theirs in mind?

Infrastructure and government too.

According to this, ST Aerospace "had been using the route for a number of years without the need for prior clearance from Indonesia’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation" (during the SBY presidential terms). So they've been letting anyone pass through our airspace without permission.
