DEV LOG # 002 : BUILDING THE BASIC LORE, AND REFERENCES FOR THE LEVEL STRUCTURE
first of all have written a bit of ’ cool insights ’ to even get started, or sort of the opposite of the ’ four cardinal virtues ’ for spec ops - teams
or these are the four ’ thou shalt not ’ of the hero at the center of the spectacle, and where he’ll have to prove himself against quite a few villains, or if he could stand his ground even when it’s difficult, and then to master both his environment, or sort of the grunt enemies around himself, and then also himself to be of the better champions, etc
this serves these purposes
– that it’s not that easy to decide on textures for the levels, or also most of the enemies unless one has a ’ theme to get started ', and that too much of a noob to just make great art without something to get started
– to sort of have a purpose at all for making better art, and so there’s something to talk about, or for the audience to keep track of where try to work as a ’ classic story - teller ’ where the goal is to somewhat enlighten the public
– last that not sure what effects make sense, or sort of how the boss fights should be put together, and however this gives me a few ideas of their powers to also guess how they might mess with the main character, or sort of ’ push his buttons ', and go after his weaknesses
for now this is the quality that hope to make also
-
doing this more for the sake of therapy, or that not gonna push myself beyond what could make sense of, and however video games are actually quite important, or sort of hope to win a few prizes
-
it’s not that easy to make a difference in the modern world, and to sort of reach people where think ’ really cool art ’ somehow is the way to do that, or that it’s important to think of how one presents things to other people, and sort of ’ be on their side ’ to make sure they understand what one is talking about, or that electronic entertainment somehow is great for establishing lectures
note : this is how build entire video games, and that sadly work the way of an adult autist where it’s perhaps a bit ’ harsh ', or then focused on brutal reality where that’s sort of what could keep up with, and then that it’s therapy for years of PTSD, or then breakdowns from several wrong medications, and where need to ’ beat something up ', or then run around in sort of medieval torture levels to make sense of what has happened to me in real life also
DEV LOG # 003 : HOW TO MAKE AN ICONIC MAIN CHARACTER FOR MOST VIDEO GAMES
for sure it’s not easy to come up with the ’ new best trope ', and sort of what everyone should be talking about, or then also throwing money at to be something like cheap cultural products, and however have gotten an early good start from scrolling Facebook where have found these early ideas to be coolness, etc
perhaps not everyone in the modern world knows ’ Marcus Aurelius ’ that was a sort of brilliant roman emperor, and that wrote a book called ’ The Meditations ’ that’s a rather blessed series of quotes, or that might be called scripture for ’ most statesmen ', and then very important politicians where it’s also somehow very important to warrior culture, or where on the one side the main character is sort of inspired by this author from way ago, and then to derive much of his work as a soldier from the writings, or one could say he’s a ’ young Alexander the Great ’ to somehow be inspired by the noble teachings of this pagan king as it were
after that found this quote from random Facebook posts where want to create a ’ better conflict ’ inside the protagonist of the video game, or that his ’ opposite side ’ is perhaps Shakespeare, and then that this quote is sort of his ’ GROM force recon motto ', or what he ultimately lives for, and sees as his way to being the best of the best, or to bring home a ton of medals
last is then this quote where he’s a bit of a mercenary to how he solves problems, or to somehow be caught between the 1. service of Marcus Aurelius, and then 2. how Shakespeare thought, or somehow viewed the world, and then last 3. the sort of ’ wealth defines all ’ quote where that might be his flaw, or among his weaknesses, and that yet it keeps him moving forward, or to sort of maintain his balance, and find meaning in the sometimes terrible deeds of warfighters that have to embark on questionable operations also
somehow that’s the main character, or my recipe for an ’ elite hyper spec ops ', and then to give the character depth, or also to have quite a few things to live for, and ultimately something like the grit, or also devotion to take on the monsters in the final video game as of adding to the lore
there’s gonna be WEB SUPPORT for the Flax Engine, and have been wanting to publish this video game as a series of levels one unlocks in a web store, or have found a theme song also, and that’s both rather ’ spec ops ', or then captures the life style of this ’ travelling homeless king warrior ’ that somehow need to make this into chip tune
however, and not sure it’s better if it’s this famous song from the classic sessions, or that it’d be really cool if there was some sort of ’ retro sound tuner ’ in Flax Engine also, and to have this be embedded on a Sega Megadrive sound chip emulator, or that this should be the theme song for this soldier epos, etc
think of pro chip tune sound machine in the engine to make the most cool stuff ever, and how much amazing fun could be created that way, or that sort of a high func - autist, and this is sort of how my thinking ’ sounds ', or then Flax Engine is finally 100 % done if you ask me
here’s the ultimate soldier video game acc. to what think myself at least, and to make something like this in Flax Engine with better explosions, or also ultra cool vehicle physics could be the best content ever, and it’s sort of a classic from the Amiga 500 - years that had actual 3D graphics, or that sort of rocked in every way also
have decided on a name from his particular force recon ’ ensemble ', or because it sounds kind of legendary, and perhaps like ’ harsher SWAT dudes ', or then also a bit like Grom, and the warrior god - salvation of ’ Conan the Barbarian ', or perhaps also reminds of Doom - guy, and where he might be working to pay his bills
or that really hope WEB PUBLISHING will be really good for the Flax Engine, or think to make sort of level 1 first, and then add story, or rather nice graphics, and also effects, or a basic AI for the enemies, or then sell that first, and then make a ’ video games series in a row ’ where sum total the final price makes me quite a bit of money, or then if people don’t like what working on that they could go somewhere else, and then write me reviews, or sort of criticize me for what they don’t like, and also rate the final content, etc
last that want to make a ’ tribute ’ to the Crysis - franchise where think the second title was the best, or however that quite a few things went wrong despite it all, and that it sort of ’ tanked ’ from more being a really cool tech - demo of the engine, or where want to go over the story, and also characters that sadly were a bit ’ monotone ', or both lacked depth, and then it was almost as if they didn’t care about what was happening around themselves, or then last that the level design in most of the Crysis - video games were sort of half - done, and it was more go to - environments, or sort of boring to navigate even if the shooting was fun, and also the sense of ’ being in the world ', or that somehow think we deserve something better than that, and then also to bring a new series like that to fans today, etc
there’s something that need to say, and that this character is somewhat based on myself, or it’s why that might be a bit difficult to talk to me
-
that my family is sort of ’ very harsh workers ', and when they start something they also finish it, or that have learned at home to ’ say everything that matters ', and then to let other people deal with it, or it’s better to talk that way to ensure people could make more money as it were
-
somehow that also a ’ Navy SEAL captain ruler ', and that speak in very fast - paced words, or sort of to say everything in a hurry, and then also very precise terms that leave almost no questions, or doubts for people that might listen, and sort of almost as if preparing for a very difficult military operation, or where nothing could go wrong, and everything has to be said so people don’t get killed
-
after that have been very traumatized for over a decade, or sadly also because of psychiatry where now ’ more than defensive ', and to sort of leave no openings for people to mess with me, or even to ask me what they think, and that sort of a ’ walled off fortress ', or that have gotten somewhat fearful of most people esp. because of doctors experimenting on me with medications
-
finally that ’ don’t care for sloppy talks ', and sort of can’t stand when people don’t make sense because of my usual personality, or have been that way most of my life, and to sort of ’ shut down ’ most things that don’t make sense, or that might be called ’ verbal folly ', and also ’ to frustrate people with chats ', or that sort of very terse in what say, and then prefer when things proceed without hiccups, or no one feels that useless things have been debated
that’s why might be a bit difficult to keep up with, and that sort of a ’ highly focused spec ops ', or then from a family where one didn’t say that much beyond what was necessary, and why perhaps could appear ’ not to care ', or then to not leave that much for people to respond to, and then that revere fitness to be a harsh coach, or they sort of also speak that way, etc
that when speak these things happen
– take over almost everything, or because tend to work at that level, and sort of neither to hesitate in assuming command, or then ’ to matter in every way ', and from there to sort of boss people around
– besides that also a ’ Navy SEAL legionaire ’ in almost my entire soul, or that speak to people as if right before a very important scenario, and where people could die if not everything was said, or orders have to be sort of very precise, and else much could go wrong to add casualities to the better marines, or elite operators at all
or the way of life, and better SEAL team leaders among the freedom countries of this world
SEE YOU ON THE BEACHES MY FRIENDS, OR THAT YOU MAY HAVE NO QUESTIONS, AND WHERE YOU SHOULD GO IN THE CASE OF FIGHTING, OR THAT YOU MIGHT PERISH, AND SUFFER IN AN UNMARKED GRAVE LESS MY WORDS, OR BLESSINGS PRIOR TO THE DESTRUCTION
anyway, or this is sort why might be difficult to make sense of, and that write in a rather harsh way to most answers
the way these two gentlemen from the United States navy talk is sort of embedded into most of my ’ way of existence ', or have been that way since almost a child because of a rare form of ’ partial autistic disorder ’ mostly, and then besides that truly enjoy being in charge, or then ’ being where supposed to be ’ so much that forget what other people might think somewhat, and perhaps appear rather selfish, or that not the easiest dude to keep up with at all
– simply can’t stand ’ most basic errors ', or when people ’ run around in a haze ', and almost have to shut that down to almost take over perhaps, or not sure could appear to get in the way, and however it’s mostly because of a more advanced diagnosis to get started
– then that ’ don’t bother with doubts ', or much rather say exactly what has to be said, and then move on
– finally to perhaps make that worse have a modest temper, and where can’t bring myself to back down until everything has been solved, or in a sense ’ all the better answers ’ have been found, and that doesn’t really leave much space for conversation, or that sort of get in the way of ’ easy chatter ’ because of these things, etc
WHAT MATTERS IS HOPEFULLY THIS, AND TO BE A FAN OF THE ENGINE
-
really want to make video games in the program, and that’s sort why here to even get started, or that also hope to help find bugs, and make cool tutorials for the community when get the chance
-
then that very much a fan of better culture, or sort of ’ cool movies ', and my goal is to add something like that to the world, or be a ’ worthy entrepreneur of media products ', and to sort of make everyone happy, or perhaps win awards for adding to the better films of the year, and sort of get a few Oscars, or things like that, etc
to summarize, or it’d be these
– from when get up in the morning, and until fall asleep think of almost nothing else, or ’ very difficult navy procedures ', and sort of also what polish GROM does most hours of the day, or from there to ’ talk that way ', and do most things in very precise schedules
– then that simply can’t stand when people don’t level with each other, and say things the way they are, or that people could lose their lives in the armed forces, and that somehow bothers me like nothing else, or to be a very good officer non - stop all of my life
– finally that ’ love fitness medals ', and to sort of impress people with being very cool among esp. tougher athletes, or it’s also part of their culture to sort of ’ get everything right ', and leave few concerns, or hesitations, and that’s sort of why a bit difficult to make sense of, or not sure should apologize for that also
BETTER TO FOCUS ON GAME DEV, AND WHAT THIS TOPIC IS FOR
– really think Crysis is rad awesome, and because the main character is sort of a ’ Rambo - trope ’ that reminds of myself, or then think that actually could write this to be among my few talents, and that get the internal thinking of these force recon - squadrons
– then that ’ simulated explosions ', or most of the effects in video games are hyper cool if you ask me, and because they’re very ordered sequences of decisions, or sort of ’ orders among service men ', and it sort of reminds me of being in the military, or sort of giving commands to the PC
my creed is something like that dude
– ’ don’t ever get in the way ', or everything ultra matters, and from there say things at that level, or don’t waste chatter, and sort of speak nonsense at all
– then one could say ’ no matter what be of quality ', or live up to all excellence besides medals among the Navy SEALs, and that can’t stand when things don’t happen that way, or those are my standards since almost have been a child
– last that ’ don’t care of half - answers ’ in any way whatsoever, and people better think of the best they know, or that could help at all in case elite navy specialists might lose their lives, or somehow that makes me speak in rather harsh ways, and then not to waste words, or leave room for doubts, and then most nonsense, or that sort of a ’ spec ops - dude ’ from almost birth, or why tend to make video games like that, and then to give much praise to people like that around the world, etc
NOT DOING THIS TO MESS WITH PEOPLE, OR IT’S BECAUSE RATHER AUTISTIC
GETTING HELP FROM NURSES MOST DAYS WHERE EVEN THEY CAN’T GET MUCH BETTER FROM ME, AND DON’T MIND APOLOGIZING IF HAVE UPSET PEOPLE, OR HAVE ALSO LIVED IN GOV CARE FOR THE LAST 25 YEARS BECAUSE OF THESE THINGS
DEV LOG # 004 : WORKING ON A SELF - INSPIRED VIDEO GAME ABOUT NAVY SEAL ROLE MODELS, OR THAT CONTRIBUTE TO GOOD OPERATIONS, AND SAVE THE WORLD FOR PRESIDENTS LIKE JFK, ETC
simply wanted to explain what working on, and that it’s sort of put together from myself, or then also that don’t know much else, and from there to be a bit stuck on these soldier - trope franchises, or very harsh video games like ’ Dark Souls ', and where only the best of the best could even survive, or have a chance against the monsters, and worse desolation
the goals of the project are these for now at all
-
to learn as much as could about the Flax Engine in case ’ had to go to severe directives ', or in case the Navy SEALs, and also better GROM platoons depended on me learning that, and to me that’s having fun, or sort the way do things, and can’t really help that because of a rare kind of ’ partial autistic devolved personality - syndrome ', etc
-
then that love the Crysis - series because it also reminds of that, or then to have top tier - graphics, and sort of rock that way, or hope to capture that in the Flax Engine
-
finally that really enjoy very advanced topics, and things like how the navy works with the rest of the world, or then also PTSD, and what else could go wrong among the elite veterans, or hope to make a ’ thriller ’ over something like that, and also criticize when wars go wrong, or soldiers, and their leaders are supposed to break the rules to win despite it all, or all those conflicts esp. to psychology is what interests me these days, and that’s why sort of working on this particular video game, or hope that it might get me a few awards also from the reviews, and make me some cool money, or not sure what to spend that on, etc
things like this, or also like ultra graphics, and sort of the best movies, or if could work on something like this, and that’s sort of ’ my dream ’ to also make something that my relatives could be proud of, or that might be good fortune to them also
DEV LOG # 005 : WEB SUPPORT REALLY HELPS NOOB CREATIVES TO GET MORE WORK DONE, AND THEN TO REACH MORE PEOPLE, OR TO CULTIVATE FANS IN IMPORTANT WAYS
have a few great ideas, or that might be a bit tough to get done because it’s sort of ’ Skyrim AAA - award winners ', and that need a few more people working for me before that’s gonna happen
my goal for web publishing is something like this
– publish level 1 and 2 for free on a platform like itch - io to sort of get early customers, or also reviews before continued work, and to help look for bugs, or get an idea of how much marketing, and extra - content is gonna need
– then that want the ability to walk away if don’t like what working on myself, or to sort of stop at some really cool demo - levels for free, and to avoids stress, or over - committing to new projects, etc
– after that think it’s a really fair way of trying to sell stuff, or to give the consumers a chance to decide what they want, and it’s important to admit that ’ the customer is always right ', or to create businesses around more ethical practices
– finally that could send the unfinished stuff to my family, and friends at least, or to at least create something for people that know more personally, and that really can’t wait for web publishing, or think it’s also gonna be amazing for participating in game jams with the Flax Engine, and then to be more productive, or to feel that the entire pipeline from being an artist to the final results, or also the fans, and customers is better than ever, or to embrace the new technologies that empower culture
besides that have decided my second video game - reference for what want to create is the earlier Tomb Raider 1 - 4 that also remind of the ’ Hexen ’ - series, and to try and get animations, or textures to this level of quality where not sure it’s retro, and then low res - indie that working on to capture the harsh world of spec ops, or then also how determined, and no - nonsense most of the elite operators are from around the world, etc
-
everything about Tomb Raider rocks, and then that it looks rather brutal, or with sharp edges everywhere, and then the colors are rather military - looking, or then also somehow natural - looking to remind of camouflage, and jungle warfare tactics
-
the main character is more than awesome, or that want to focus on that in my video game also, and that it’s sort of a character - driven story from the very beginning, or with a focus on better acting, and also the personal lives of those involved with the writings, etc
Are you ever going to make a game or just continue posting game ideas in a game engine forum.
2 Likes
these things are how think, etc
– that working on ideas are almost the same as finishing a video game, or that one could publish a great concept almost as book, and then settle for writing a really good movie script, or that it’s fun to work on ideas to even get started where one could almost imagine the finished product starting from the right references
– then that art is both a blessing, and has a way of ruining the best ideas, or that it reveals the ideas too much, and where books are almost better because they leave things to the imagination, and then that there are several different ways of making most things ( retro, next - gen, alternative ) where it’s not that easy to decide on a final art style as people perhaps think
– finally that doing this more as therapy, or my goal is to re connect with my family that haven’t seen in over a decade because of trauma, and that ultimately what care about is making something that could show to them, or that don’t really need money because on an early pension, and then for some reason don’t feel like being that famous where think of people like ’ Kurt Cobain ', or also ’ Janis Joplin ’ that passed away at the age of 27 besides that most of the super - famous end up in tabloids, and then on narcotics where that’s sort of steps away from seeing my relatives again, or that even if love video games, and also think it’s cool to win the better awards in the industry that don’t really want to end up like those celebrity grave yards, etc
this is also ’ art ', and almost more fun than movies, or that somehow video game scripts are very gratifying for their own sake, and that not entirely sure what art direction works best for what working on to get started atm
the real problems are that can’t really do these things for now in terms of skills, etc
– cool work in 2D programs, or sort of to draw really advanced textures
– animations find very difficult even in Blender using the skeletal bone stuff where can’t make anything look more than half - good
– then that ’ pro effects ’ are very difficult to get right even if know how particles work in theory, and that it’s simply tough to get the ideas that have turned into the results want in the 3D engine
– finally that writing a ton of lore, or getting that into the final video game is also something where not sure how to do that, and think need to somehow work with .txt, or then to store all the writing in string variables where not sure how to edit that, and get it into another program to search for typos, or how to set up a very advanced dialogue system, etc
note : what trying to learn right now besides code, and animation in Blender is to create 2D art works like this, or it’s almost a separate discipline where need to practice, and that sort of a multi - talent where enjoy learning these more traditional methods, or then to mix them with 2D art similar to Photoshop, and mypaint, or 3D rendering to create sort of really cool gallerias, and also more for therapeutic purposes, or then to have fun at local game jams near where live atm
DEV LOG # 006 : WORKING ON REFERENCES FOR A FORCE RECON - SOLDIER, AND HAVE GOTTEN A NAME FOR THE MAIN CHARACTER, OR HIS BACK STORY OF EUROPEAN ARMED DISTINCTIONS
– the main character is to be named
– Joseph T. Khan –
note : a ’ khan ’ is a very severe ruler, and that’s sort of the same as an emperor, or to remind of the stories from Warhammer 40K where they have their leader on a sort of life - support throne
then that trying to deal with rather severe PTSD, or that gonna watch something like this also for references to this new video game, and that sort of need to get tough to deal with a ton of problems, or that somehow ’ Navy SEAL PTSD survival training ’ is what need right now, and then that think ’ seals the aquatic animals ’ are very cool, or because my father was a veterinarian also
VIDEO REFERENCE FOR THE MAIN CHARACTER, OR ’ SEAL TRAINING - TROPE ’ FOR THE EFFECTS
somehow these wonderful gentlemen have been my sort of ’ therapists ’ for almost a decade, and to learn much from them, or how to get through very severe psychiatric issues at all
note : sort of very fragile atm, and working a bit slow because of that, etc
DEV LOG # 007 : WHAT FAMOUS ACTORS COULD WORK AS A REFERENCE FOR MOTION CAPTURE, OR SORT OF HOW THE CHARACTER MOVES, AND TALKS
for now have three ideas for this ’ retired in Europe ’ force recon - legend, and somehow it has to be rather harsh people, or then that are very talented, and gonna look at movie clips to decide on the final theater, or sort of the tone of voice, and perhaps also the overall design of the character in more details, etc
– Marlon Brando ( known from Godfather, or other important films )
– James Dean
– Nick Nolte
where for now think perhaps either ’ James Dean ’ is a good reference, or then also ’ Mickey Rourke ’ might be a good candidate, and that’s he’s sort of very working class, or then doesn’t really take much nonsense, and finally looks to know how to get tough, or also in a hurry when it’s truly required
or that because he’s a GROM ’ moved from America ’ to retire in Europe, and that’s sort of all for now, or that not really sure how to make the enemies except have really good ideas to get started in think the first post, and that really enjoy working on these more advanced characters, or to get their profile right to most of the psychology, and that it’s quite rewarding to work on culture, or be creative esp. when dealing with psychiatric stuff, etc
note : this is the second theme song, and that really like the idea of ’ getting drunk with my friends ', or then as a spec ops - titan that he of course likes ’ Wild Turkey ', and then after that only the great ’ Jack Daniels ', or where that’s how he deals with life, and his senior officers when they don’t make sense, or last his ’ dame of the night ’ where the character has a love interest yet to be written
what trying to capture is something like modern soldiers that are
– sworn to very tough loyalty, and when it really matters to serve the better world leaders
– then that are more than effective, or sort of got the skills to do what’s required, and set themselves apart by having very harsh standards
– last that they’re very fitness - sponsored to get in shape, or sort of see that as among their ’ way of life ', and to be more useful in that sense, or to prioritize their basic health also
and the idea is that 1. they’re sworn to both secrecy, or then very important orders among esp. the navy, and then 2. excellence to the gym, or sort of the best results among athletes are very important to them, and to write that sort of story while also ’ improving everything in the Crysis - series ', or to sort of make something even better in Flax Engine, etc
Michael Phelps is sort of the only american athlete ’ truly admire ', and not sure what’s happening over there these days, or however he’s a very famous olympic medalist, and then perhaps also a very nice guy, or it’s something like that hope to capture in a 3D model, and then something like an FPS, or TPS - shooter that not quite sure how retro to make everything atm, or that going into Blender later today to try and make at least a prototype mesh, and then to relax gonna try and draw some ’ electronic oil paintings ’ in mypaint later, or those are the goals have in mind, etc
these are the art references so far, and to have an idea of what to build in my favorite 3D art program Blender 2.83 LTS where want to make something retro - ish later, or not sure the polycount to get started, and that’s sort of that worried about to the final production
note : from Denmark, or there’s been quite a bit of trouble over Greenland recently, and that don’t wish to say more, or it’s important to be supportive of all the nice people from over there
sigh, or when grew up most days used to ’ play spec ops - games ', and sort of have a ton of fun with my friends imagining we were important soldiers, or to sort of save the world for ’ Gandhi ', and similar leaders, or sort of what’s happening in this movie trailer to stop the Terminators, and all that’s being cut out of the engine for some reason, or replaced with something that’s more ’ tiresome noise ', and sort of static from old television screens to me, or not sure to jump engine at this point, and right now it’s simply the best program ever, or it feels like it’s being ruined, and there’s nothing could do about it, etc
after something like ’ stopping the Terminators ’ whenever boot the Flax Engine, or then something like ’ Tears of the Sun ’ to save innocent civilians, and ’ defusing enemy nuclear bombs ’ to save the world is being removed from the otherwise really cool UX, or that sort of feel very sad because of these changes, and was hoping for a bit of customization to retain of the sense of importance, or sort of how used to play as a child, and with my friends before got sick in psychiatry, etc
Joseph T. Kahn has a call sign, or it’s
’ grey spartan ultima ', and that somehow grey colors remind me of all these awesome things, or to ’ save the entire world ', and now that’s being removed for reason can’t make sense of, or that struggle to see the point in making video games after such decisions, and also it was how made my teachers in school proud, or then was hoping to pay for my house, and desperately wanted to be a SWAT officer legend before decided on college at all
or right now it’s this fun to start up the engine, or that after the theme changes it’s gonna be perhaps 10 - 15 % of that, and sort of really feel like almost saving the world whenever start the program atm
all that is being replaced with something that’s a bit more boring than this, or that can’t really see my friends doing that much over this, and that it’s rather severe how much it makes the engine ’ half - trash ’ to me, or then really wanted to develop things for the web, and send cool things to my mom also
note : have talked to my psychologists ( there’s also several ergotherapists that know me really well ), and they say after having known me for 25 years that this is ’ everything that live for ', or then that almost can’t make sense of much else, and sort of rather limited as a partial - autist citizen, or that need quite a bit of help to just get through every day in Denmark even if that’s usually quite easy for most people that live here, and that Flax Engine has been a ’ safe haven ’ for me, or then to almost connect to my friends from when was younger where that now is almost gone, and then it’s better to find another video game software, or it’s gonna be another ’ bad memory ’ in my life, and that have been very sick for over a decade to deal with stuff like this also
don’t feel so good, and however that still think Flax Engine is the best program ever, or sort of despite it all only amazing things are being added, and then to relax have seen a review of ’ Crimson Desert ’ from Digital Foundry where they sort of review the BlackSpace Engine that’s used for this video game, or they’re using words like ’ sublime ', and ’ very good ’ in every way, or myself can’t wait to see if this runs well on the Playstation 5 Pro, and that gonna get a nice rest from playing also Midnight Suns by Marvel, or then have gotten started on Dead Space that’s my favorite content ever, and to get rest, or enjoy the many pixels, and all the effects, or what perhaps could even make in Flax Engine at all
– want to try and make sense of how they make the animations, and also the level design, or how they get this much terrain together in AAA - graphics
– then looking for ideas to add to my current video game, or sort of cool NPC’s, and ideas for vogue monster design, or sort of their weapons, and last spells, or power ups
– somehow want to enjoy music, and perhaps write a bit of stuff on the guitar that have, or somehow working with sound, and make some tests in the engine to get ambience, or music somehow added to what have done before, etc
trying to work on a dev log, and that sort of have run into these concerns at all
– how does one even make the enemies in the second - first post into actual graphics where it’s rather symbolic thinking, or then also things that don’t really make sense as classic monsters, and that sort of don’t have a ’ shape ', or really ’ normal animation - tropes ’ where it’s almost like aliens, and teleporting occult phenomenon, or that not sure how to design them except a few of the final roster, etc
– then that not sure whether to make this PS2 - retro quality, and then try and go for PS3, or even PS4 poly count levels, and that sort of mildly stuck because of these things atm
DEV LOG IN VIDEO FORMAT THAT GOES OVER THESE THINGS, AND HOW TO DECIDE ON AN ART - STYLE OVER ’ FORMLESS ENEMIES ', OR THAT ARE ALMOST ABSTRACT MONSTERS, AND ESP. THEIR ANIMATIONS ARE NON - HUMANOID, ETC
what have been thinking is, or to prepare for an indie - game jam where have two days to finish something, and that perhaps might want to focus on this genre, or sort of with an air plane flying towards the top of the screen, and not sure it’s called a vertical scrolling - shooter, or they tend to look like these classics esp. from really old computer systems, etc
it’s because to make something that’s playable start to finish, and that need to make all these things to even get started
– an overall story that could write in an evening to follow the rules
– then an intro screen
– the actual air plane that could be a 2D sprite on a plane
– somehow the levels perhaps to draw as a set of rather simple textures could be added to very simple terrain
– something like mechanics where the enemies could fly around, or rather simple bullet physics
– then the mechanics, and code to make the player character turn, and accelerate
– finally an exit - screen to be something like game over, or then a high score
– perhaps a counting system for power ups, and how many points one collects for each of the enemies one runs into, or how many waves one defeated, and perhaps an on - screen counter that keeps track of all that to count in integers, or some sort of simplified math to get awards from taking down all of the opposition
-
somehow this is a very respectable genre, and most people tend to like this scrolling shooters almost no matter what, or then it expresses the idea really well without the most advanced mechanics
-
it could somehow all be done in a few days where already know most of the skills, and there’s not crazy advanced navigation, or then a ton of graphics despite it all
-
last that it could run on most systems, and perhaps in the browser, or be a really cool way of getting started on making my first video game, and that need to practice this in advance to make sure how to make everything, or declare myself ’ ultimate Flax master ’ for how cool this all looks to an autist, etc
