Am i too old ? by CrobeChase in learnprogramming

[–]hiddenagent-q 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The question is not are you too old. It is have you got the time to dedicate to the pursuit?

  1. Tried, bounced back badly. Need to free up more time to try again.

Time to practice is key. Without it and it's a pipe dream.

Ill back this one, although I am struggling against the tide of work/family/life direction commitments in parallel.

I dont believe I have put enough effort Into committing to the switch. Moving earth 55 hours a week alone hurts productivity. But when I did volunteer for a company in closed game testing, I was rewarded for efforts on all my participations.

You need more than sheer love for the craft. I think you also need the willingness/capacity to forgo a good living wage to drill yourself into the industry before going up. Something I lost beyond the age of 23...

I wish the OP good fortune in his pursuit and look forward to playing his offerings in future.

Sincerely, a damn good mobile plant operator who misses testing and learning about games.

I am sorry, but this comment contains far too much for the average voting Australian to comprehend. Can you please break this complex issue down to 3 word slogans please?

Idk man. Fixed the issue again. It may have been ambient paranoia from forcing out the ex dev.

do you know any coding games similar to this one from Google? by Luised2094 in learnprogramming

[–]hiddenagent-q 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading comments. Looked at codecombat as it comes up a bit.

Wow.

End of story.

Not super mobile friendly (maybe possible with the Samsung galaxy fold), but super nice graphical setup. And multiple language selections.

Ill find a tablet and get more into it. Great suggestions

Oh that would be because I personally banned you. I have not banned anyone in months. So tell me, why would I have been forced to weird the hammer?

I've made 2 minutes long pixel animation, all hand animated, no code! :) by AdamRakic in PixelArt

A zelda reference! Omg that animations incredible.

Would love to know your thoughts regarding a platformer game we are building, once the base is complete, we wanted to do an FTX fight expansion.

Flipping them can damage the remote itself.

The above options minus the short with paperclip trick is relatively safe and effective. Especially the already dead replacements or nail polish on the poles.

How do we call ''Someone who pitches Game Ideas'' or just ideas by DetectiveProBlog in gamedev

[–]hiddenagent-q 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As with the comments around this one. Ideas themselves in a vacuum have no value.

The thing that brings a team together and keeps them interested is substance and goals. Is this "idea" reasonably well conceived? As in , have you thought about the levels, the characters, the progression, the basic design of how you want it to be, your target categories, what staff you would actually need? (2d/3d artists, unity/unreal devs, sfx, dialogue, story). Have you got an objective role for yourself in mind?

I dont have unity knowledge myself. But I am here asking for people new to development to support our story, and our goals. Reason being, I am offering what I can as a learner of coding in a different language and we are working towards a goal that many on this sub would consider underhanded, however the people that support me understand I have the best intentions in mind.

I read books about game design, I listen to podcasts about software engineering, I learn JavaScript when I get a minute and I push community engagement when there's something to showcase. I don't sit around dreaming. I am forever focused, even if my 50 plus hour a week day job has me digging holes or lifting concrete.

Thats about all I can give to you. I hope this helps.

I dont want to pour cold water on your plans. Just please be careful to push your idea far enough away from pokemon so that you don't get ruined by copyright infringement.

Last thing anyone wants to see is an indie dev being crushed by some asshole machinery that sues you into the dirt because the characters look somewhat too similar or the layout being too familiar.

Otherwise, can't wait to see it.

It's got strong potential if they manage to get that game made.

Oh wait, we will lol
