Can anyone link me to the pokemon terrain tilesheet like everyone uses?

I find this one to be the most complete for exteriors

You might want to reduce the size to half of what's in there since that's a RPG Maker XP tileset.
Most of those are fanmade to recreate a Johto theme using the GBA games style.

I've been working on a assembly language/virtual machine/whatever lately.

Source:

push 0
toVariable "x"
:beginWhile
	getVariable "x"
	writeLine
	getVariable "x"
	increase
	copyToVariable "x"
	push 10
jumpIfNotEqual "beginWhile"
push "Done."
writeLine

Output:

0
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
Done.

I made a level editor what the game I showed before. I bet you can't guess where the materials are from?
Also the kick ass material selector at the bottom!

This popped into my head:


(I know the light should have a gradient, but it doesn't look very good)
I'm also aware the right side is a bit derpy but that's what I get for rushin' the pen tool.

I really like the graphical design in this. Are your components scripted as well or hardcoded in the game?

What is it?

I actually made something like that quite some time ago in another game. Although not as perfect as in your example, which I don't know how to do it.


Also, the map size in the pokemon themed world is at 100*100 and quite unlaggy. Loads of space!
My world editor can save worlds up to 1000*1000 at least, but it can only load up to 100*100 for some reason. Shit be strange son.

You'd have to do some sort of ray-casting and use a special texture map for collision objects (so the base of the tree and not the branches, etc.

I doodled some more and added a second player and felt that if you added some ghost sprites, you'd have the settings for a minigame of two players running around shining lights on ghosts.

Shining flashlights on cute little pokemon ghosts?

Not really the idea I had when I started this


And as of right now a tile is either fully solid or not solid at all. Also, I have no idea how to do any ray-casting unfortunally as some realistic lightning like that would be quite rad.

I think you have the scale a weeee bit off.

I'm using Java with no premade framework/libraries. Everything but the input handling classes are made by myself. Input handling is from the book "Developing games in Java".

I might look into it if I fell like it some day though.

I implemented some basic transition tables and decided that "If in the player's FOV then move in his direction" pathfinding is good enough for now and started on combat.

[leontodd]

seed = love.timer.getTime()
math.randomseed(seed)
if math.random(1, 10) == 5 then
	print("true")
end

I have a problem with math.random(). No matter what value I put as the seed or what minimum and maximum value I use, it always returns the minimum value. I've tried using os.time(), love.timer.getTime() and even single numbers as the seed. It's probably an easy fix but I'm pretty new to lua.

Try calling math.random() three times after seeding, might help a bit

[marvincmarvin]

I usually do something like this.

local seed=1
function rnd(min, max)
        seed=seed*love.timer.getTime()/5
        math.randomseed(seed) --Forgot this.. :l
        return math.random(min,max)
end

Edited:
Completely forgot to set the seed..

Thanks guys, seems to work fine after trying both these.

I've spent the last week or so working on a lunar lander game for AIR (making this for the playbook giveaway). I'm picking up AS3 along the way, but other than the "var name:Type" syntax it reminds me of Java. Made in FlashDevelop with FlashPunk and Nape, art in Inkscape/GIMP.

I did add the particle effects today, but recently I mostly worked on the terrain generation. Generating the base is easy, just simple midpoint displacement, but choosing and flattening the landing zones was a pain. Seems to be efficient enough, though the target platform won't exactly be running an i5. It's not something that gets called often so I think I'll be fine.

Excuse the relatively awful flying and my visible mouse cursor.


Time to get the actual game elements in (scoring, menus, difficulty) and to work out touchscreen controls.

[ryandaniels]

Recently got back into programming my own projects after a long hiatus.



The blue nodes are not-gates, the green/red nodes are on/off indicators.

I don't think it's a good idea to overexplain/brag about your lofty project goals when you've only just begun, but in order to not be mysterious, essentially I'm making a sort of bot battle game.

Homemade Quadtrees!
Im going to use them on A* later on.
I have no idea how Quadtrees works so i just thought to myself how to make it look like the pictures and i think i've grasped the concept.

Unless there's a third dimension somewhere in that image that I'm not seeing, what you have there is a quadtree.

A quadtree takes a world and splits it into for quadrants. If you've got a quadtree on a cartesian coordinate plane centered at (0, 0), the first split would split the world into the 4 quadrants (+, +), (-, +), (-, -), and (+, -).

An octree works the same way, only in 3d, where there are 8 octants to split the world into instead of just 4 quadrants.

Working on an IOS game. I'm using the StencylWorks engine, its kinda like gamemaker but you can make decent stuff with it, and you can export as both a SWF and IOS game. This is my first attempt at this kinda stuff, but I feel like I'm making progress.
Simply click to shoot at the incoming missiles, don't let them hit your bunker.
Eventually its gonna have base upgrades, persistent currency to buy them with, more enemy missile types and scaling difficulty.

A mockup for a splash screen I made a little while ago.
