Kisai 09/30/17 1:46:14 AM #7:	I've tried working on one using the original Construct involving a few original characters I had since first grade. And I've dabbled in RPG Maker stuff a lot. You could kinda say I completed a game back when I was in 8th grade or so involving me and a bunch of friends' RP characters, but I don't really count that. So sadly, no. --- WHO MODS THE MODERATORS? <cite>Kisai posted [p:887549687] in Have you e...

MabusIncarnate 09/30/17 1:47:35 AM #9:	I had a thing for making board games as a kid, that none of my family would play with me. I also invested easily 500+ hours into making a game in RPG maker, made my own sprites, it had midi file music from my favorite punk songs that meshed surprisingly well, and made all the graphics and whatnot in photoshop. I thought it turned out pretty awesome, but again, no one ever played it. It was a 15 hour playthrough not counting grinding if you wanted to power level your bro. --- Ten million dollars on a losing campaign Twenty million starving and writhing in pain <cite>MabusIncarnate posted [p:887549726] in Have you e...

sellerdore 09/30/17 2:24:25 AM #17:	Worked on a AAA title last year LightningAce11 posted... I kinda want to make a fighting game using unreal engine, like SF and MK. What's the best way to get into that? I got a character model all rigged and textured up, and planning to make more. If you're working on your own...I suggest you download the engine (it's free to use these days) and do their official tutorials. Be sure to learn about Blueprints -- what they are, how they work, and how to use them. They're a feature that's unique to Unreal Engine and help you to script behavior and handle events in the game without having to code (per se). Be prepared to spend a good amount of time learning how to use the engine before you actually work on what you intend to (the fighting game). If you really want to get serious, you should learn some basic programming fundamentals anyway, so you can utilize full potential of the engine. Make heavy use of online official Unreal documentation and also Youtube, reddit, etc. Can't really give any advice specifically for a 2D fighter though as I don't really have experience with that style of game...It's good that you are thinking about character models/animations because I do know that animation data (active hit/hurt frames, animation blending, spacing/timing, etc) can have huge impact in fighters Final general advice: start small. You may have grand plans for a fully decked out game but honestly it takes a while just to get the basic functionality of the game going. It might take you a couple of weeks of learning and debugging to even be able to get one of those character models into the game and controllable by the player. Also, feature creep is dangerous. Every new feature will multiply the complexity of the game's inner mechanics. It's usually better to polish the core gameplay, then add essential features. Don't be afraid to cut features, no matter how awesome it may have been in theory. Sometimes you build something up and play it and it just doesn't feel right. --- "Come out to the coast, we'll get together, have a few laughs..." http://www.last.fm/user/kmal415 <cite>sellerdore posted [p:887550820] in Have you e...

And I'm not sure I'm the best "making it into the industry" guy I mainly got an interview through a personal contact. But from what I've heard, it's important these days to have built up a solid portfolio of projects or ideas you worked on at home. Whether you actually end up releasing on some platform, or just some personal pursuit of an idea, it's important to be able to show that you've got at least some experience and knowledge of the pieces of what goes into a game. And be able to talk intelligently about the process (why you made certain game design choices, the challenges you faced) in an interview setting --- "Come out to the coast, we'll get together, have a few laughs..." http://www.last.fm/user/kmal415 <cite>sellerdore posted [p:887567176] in Have you e...
