So recently I had found this amazing program called Unity and it let me create games. So I was like, LET'S DO DIS SHIT and now I'm a part-time game dev... here's a secret about it... Psst... it's not that hard I'm good at the coding skills myself. I can do that. But, I'm bad at modeling (unless I use SketchUp, but I can't afford the pro version). I am looking for one, but I just wanted to let you know that I am making a WIP game. Think I'm kidding? Editior pic up. Next picture is some gameplay. If you want to stop reading now, it's ok. Here is a video on it: My game is going to be a DayZ - style game called Diminished. When does it take place: In 2133, but Squidward has a much better answer: How many guns have you planned there to be: 80 guns make up the list, but only 7 are confirmed to be added. Will I have to have a good computer to play this game: A decent computer should go well. What kinds of models are you looking for: Gun models/animations, Player models/animations, Zombie models/animations, etc. What consoles will get this game: PC will get this game, but if it does good enough, it may be extended to Sony platforms (PS4/PS3/PSVITA). That's it! Thanks for looking at this thread.
HAHA! Another game programmer? Is it possible? I have been making games since I was 11, and I love it! I can make all sorts, from Mario-type games, like where Mario has a machine gun, to three D games like Roblox. It takes me about half a year to make a good game, but I hope they are ok. I use Multi Media Fusion 2, or Game maker. They are much simpler than Unity, which I have used before, and I can makes games at a faster scale. The bad thing is, my Game Maker program does not work, and my Multi Media Fusion 2 trial ran out, so I will have to buy the full version. Try game maker. There is less coding involved, and more opportunity.
Dude, I started at 8 (1999) creating mods for Doom (ofc with help from, dad, but I mainly did everything) Plus, I have mastered Game Maker. So that's why I'm using Unity. It's fun to use.
This game is too early in its stages to be tested... xD (Need actual modelers and animators FIRST) But when multiplayer sees an alpha, there will be testers.
Nice, but, um, you are like a million years older than I am. I am... 14. But, can you make 3D games with Game Maker? Also, I have a friend that can make models pretty darn well. Want me to hook you up?( He, like me, is pressured in school, so we will take forever per model)
Yes, 3D games in Game Maker is possible for me, but once again, lack of modeling skills made them bad... And it's good for me if you can have your friend model for me. I am patient and can wait for models to be made. Thanks for offering!
The game will feature character customization in the game, some unlocked by easter eggs. So yes, you'll be featured in the game. For the Mudkips, I can't put any in there (Don't wanna get sued).
Does my custom character have to be an easter egg? ( can I get it for free since it's my skin? [Also can you make your own customization instead?] )
Your character is an easter egg (you have to find all the potatoes in the game), but since I know how, I can give you a copy which includes the Potato character at start. For the question on own customization, yes, but most things must be unlocked. You also get presets, which include costume and stats. There will be multiple stats, like speed and stamina. I am in the works of a Wiki for this game, so you can refer to it.
Wow. You sound like you have the time to do this? Approximately, how long will the game take to make? 5 months until first release?
I'll try to aim for 3 months for first beta, and seek and destroy the bugs for multiplayer release. Then Steam will get to see it. I'm pricing the game at $20, but beta testers will get a free code. If the game does good enough, I will apply for PS3/4 release (sorry, no Xbox consoles) at $20 (if they are not powerful enough, things will get pulled from the game, or fog will be kicked up).
Some questions... (sorry if it's too much) What Guns are Confirmed? What Guns do you want to be in the Game? How many potatoes are in the map? 1? Is there a clan / guild system? Trade system? When you die, do you respawn somewhere randomly in the map?
What guns are confirmed: They're all made up, but here: Riverter 2093, Marksma Combatter 21, Riverter 2113, Aginator, Sweeper 32, and Ballistic Knife. What guns do I want to be in the game: Too many to list. How many potatoes are in the map: Around 16. Is there a clan / guild system: I'll try to do it. Trade system: Yes. When you die, do you respawn somewhere randomly in the map: The spawning system works so that you spawn in the same city as your death, with only starting items. You can go and find your old self as a zombie which if you kill, you gain back everything.
This seems fun. Another futuristic game :) Are you planning to put an achievement system thingy? Who gets to test? :3 Why only sixteen potatoes? Why not 25?
Thanks for the praise of my work! Yes, there will be achievements (Releasing on Steam) When the beta comes out, it will be released in a way which everyone who gets it will be allowed to test There are 16 potatoes because there's 16 cities.
