SUBMISSION OPEN, CLICK HERE FOR HOW TO SUBMITOld post, use newest page with submission info for all competition discussion:
Seeing as new members are consistently posting short blogs in the RA along the lines of "I am making an RPG like somethingorother kthxbai", I've decided to satisfy their urges here. To clarify, blogs in the RA (the Recent Activity Feed, in the right sidebar) must be longer than a few sentences, unless you're posting some other media (pictures/music/videos/games). You are also not allowed to blog in the RA more than once every 24 hours.You can talk about initial ideas or progress here, unless you have enough to talk about to make your own blog. You are not required to post your progress, this is simply to keep the RA free of pointless blogs.As RPG4D entry is nearly closed and the page has a bazillion comments (over 1000?), we'll also phase out the original page and use this page for any further discussion of the competition, until I open submission at the start of July.
Puranite, I've made a 3D collisions engine in case you're interested:
http://gmc.yoyogames.com/index.php?showtopic=533421Game Maker still can't do 3D graphics but you could always consider rendering 2D sprites from 3D models and pretend it's still the days when people called Donkey Kong Country the "best 3D adventure ever". =PMy latest video about my game http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YLFnythwUE
i'm pulling out of the comp. me doing game design means too much work for too little payoff, and i'd rather invest my time in my webcomic. somewhere down the line i might make a game based on it, which i'll be sure to post here. good luck, everybody!
What I had when the comp first started:
What I've completed up until this point:I'm not doing so hot either. But seeing that not everyone is just cruising happily along is assuring. I'll just have to take out some of the ambitions, that's all.
I'm almost done with the main programming.>Legacy Platforming controls>Generic RPG stats>Moving platforms>Climbing walls>Trees swaying in the wind and shedding leaves when you hit them>Cars in foreground being carsFFFFF, you guys. I wanted to be the guy who bought this blog back up…Beluas and Castles!
Play the current version here!http://sandbox.yoyogames.com/games/197601-beluas-and-castlesNehemek, you do know that your entry has to be started on May 1st or later, right?
You should still submit Beluas and Castles to the main site here though, I'm sure you'd get a lot of feedback.Edit: Also, in my entry I've only implemented 3d movement and walking animations :P but the design docs are good so uh… that's somewhere I should have been a month ago but it's still progress. Eventually I'll get around to making the actual game.ohshootIcompletelyforgotaboutthis!
Yes I know that it must had to be started after may 1, but rules alllow me to use premade engines, in the game was more a engine before may, so I just decided to reupload and reupload it, the rules say Im allowed to do wathever I want to do with my game, so everytime I make a significant change I reupload it so people can see how is going the progress of my game.
If there is a problem with my game, heres my youtube channel, http://www.youtube.com/user/Nehemek/videosthere are videos since this was a engine, and as you can see, wasn't a lot of time before this comp started.
