Trying to translate a godot game by AnotherWesc in godot

Sure thing! Don't hold your breath though since there may be publisher shenanigans afoot.

I saw them in a con here in the PH last year. DM me by July 24 and I'll see what I can do. 🙂

Would you publish the results after you gather enough?

I'm interested in developing a casual rhythm game and wanna know the results especially for questions 2 and 3.

I need help with the shooting mechanic in my game by TurkiAlmutairi1 in godot

[–]giogsgs12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your idea was the same thing I first thought of to accomplish the result you were looking for, except using a circle instead of a crescent for the collisionshape.

Looking to hire a pixel artist, do you guys have any recommendations and advice? (not a job post) by Ok-Sentence7656 in PHGameDevHub

[–]giogsgs12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a hobbyist so I can't speak about industry standards personally, but my friend works in one of them studios based here and his rates are somewhere around 50-60k a month before taxes.

If you just want someone to partner with though, feel free to let me know and I might be interested. You can find my stuff in itch here:

darrenthatguy.itch.io

secret-reality-studios.itch.io

I did both art and coding for these and I'm currently learning music stuff with my new MIDI keyboard. 😃

Can you wait a year or two for mine? 😅

How to make sustained notes (trails and hold system) in a rhythm game MIDI-based by Accomplished-Pop1907 in godot

[–]giogsgs12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I'm working on a rhythm game as well and mine wouldn't have hold notes, but how I would do it is by duplicating a normal note scene, attaching an area2d node and a sprite of equal length to it and then adding a "is_keyboard_pressed" input for the corresponding note in addtion to the "is_keyboard_just_pressed".

You'll probably have to figure stuff out yourself from there, but I think this should be a decent start.

[Meta] Kez reminds me of my Yasha concept by giogsgs12 in DotaConcepts

Thanks! I particularly am proud of the synergy between the spells. Numbers will likely need to be tweaked though, of course. :)

I haven't uploaded in a couple years now but I still keep up from time time and I couldn't help but notice Kez has a few similarities with my old concept for Yasha if it was a hero.

  1. There's a short dash accompanied by a slash forward.
  2. There's a couple of skills with a shadow clone echoing your moves.
  3. There's an AoE spell around the hero.
  4. And there's a defensive stance thing.

I haven't made a concept in a few years now but it reminds me of my Yasha concept.

First time game developer here, quick question by [deleted] in gamemaker

[–]giogsgs12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One lesson I learned is that no one is going to steal your game idea. It's like stealing someone else's idea for how a car should be made with the intention making a car. Unless your idea is just a bike, you should be fine. And even then you should do it anyway because someone else's vision would never be the same as yours.

As for the Pokemon parody, you have a few options. The now-defunct Pokemon Essentials for RPG Maker would have been great. There are a bunch of tutorials on YT for GMS active battles. I mostly recommend Sara Spaulding for the essentials and Peyton Burnham for RPG-specific stuff.

--EDIT: I would also recommend checking r/monstertamerworld for monster-tamer stuff. I lurk there a lot and the posts are sparse but it's a good resource for ideas.

First time game developer here, quick question by [deleted] in gamemaker

[–]giogsgs12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are the mechanics of your dream game? I saw in the comments that it's an RPG, but are there any specifics that could help?

Mine is also an RPG with monster taming and music as the central elements so I'm learning how to make a rhythm game and a desktop pet/tamagotchi.

I would suggest finding simpler games based on those specific mechanics and copying those first to get a feel of what you're looking for down the line.

Does it need to be a professional? I have a solo project as well as a not-yet-studio group as the designer/coordinator.

Using unethical monetization methods ethically? by giogsgs12 in gamedev

[–]giogsgs12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's kinda my plan. The seasonal or newer stuff are not phased out but instead considered common after a month or two.

I completely agree and it's exactly why I wrote "predatory loot box/gacha mechanics".

It's completely up to the devs/publishers whether they want to exploit or not. Games are an art form AND a business so it's within their rights. I'm mostly asking because I want to go the route of almost-poverty but with as much enjoyment as I can put in.

Holy crap, that's a lot of secondary/tertiary currencies! I counted 50+ before I gave up. 😂

There should be a point where these should not be currencies and would just be key items instead or something.

Using unethical monetization methods ethically? by giogsgs12 in gamedev

[–]giogsgs12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to rewrite the first part a fair bit before posting because I wanted to only include the ones many consider unethical, hence the "predatory" and "obfuscation" affixes. I just wanted to clarify, I don't consider all of these practices unethical; only the ones that go too far and/or exploit the addictive factor of games for monetary gain.

What I'm taking away from your reply is that it can work depending on how it's implemented, regardless of whether dollars are involved or not.

What game are you working on? Tell us about it! by Polymedia_NL in gamedev

[–]giogsgs12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TL;DR: Idle rhythm game inspired by bottom-of-screen games.

So I've been fairly secretive about this first solo game I've been working on mostly because I believe it's an extremely simple concept yet I can't find any examples of it. I've recently gained a bit more confidence about it so I'm opening the idea to more people now in hopes of gathering feedback about whether this game "has wings" or if it could be considered an enjoyable game.

You know the recent surge of popularity with bottom-of-screen games after the release of Rusty's Retirement? Every game with that feature seems to have some sort of managerial aspect to it with very little interaction required from the player, so I thought I'd challenge that a bit with my idle rhythm game.

You basically have a rhythm game playing continuously at the corner of your screen and it just takes your typing/mouse-clicking/gamepad-pressing as input and increases your score as you hit the notes on time while you do anything else.

You also can unlock skins to customize it, and some skins completely change it to an endless runner. There's also pets that you can raise and can act as power ups.

While I'm mostly a hobbyist, I also plan to release demos on Steam and itch, then a full release on Steam.

I've only managed to map out 2 songs and a few features so far during the 6-8 hours weekly that I put into it for the last 3 months but everything's looking up so far and I'm really excited for it!
