got any ideas op?

One vote for Pressure.

>>198680448
And what type of game do you want to do?
I mean, I guess everyone here has an idea probably.

>>198680630
well I assume none of the faggots here knows too much about programming so I thought about something easy like a point and click adventure but every idea is welcome

Will program anything as long as anons provide assets.

>p&c

Do you want 3.3M with that ?

I have a design for an immersive 3D FPS UI.

It has day one DLC.

We're trying to make money, aren't we?

Everyone can obviously pitch their ideas for the theme of the game but I thought about something like playing as a lonely /v/ neckbeard who tries to get normal life tasks done
hilarity ensues

If you try to play it on a Friday or Saturday night it won't work. It will just display a message calling you a loser with no life and tell you to go out and do something social and try to get laid.

>>198681404
well not working is a bit too much but little details like calling you a loser when you start it on a friday night are a pretty damn good idea

what if actually a real developer looks at our ideas and says: "damn, this is gonna be good shit" and then proceeds to make a game with those ideas? Can we sue him?

>>198681403
Okay.
One day, the lonely neckbeard's internet gets cut off.
He decides to leave his basement to discover that everything is in ruin and the apocalypse started. People are gone, but the monsters are in.
As you progress in this open-world survival, your character drops weight, gets faster and stronger.
He also wears glasses and he can't see jack shit without them. You have to make sure they are in a good condition and pick them up if you drop them in a fight.

You guys wanna make a game

Please

please for the love of god

Make this

>serial killer roguelike
>customize your killer and his psychology and methods
>sneaking into peoples houses and murdering them
>leaving clues (set all the clocks to 12 or somthing)
>like dwarf fortress with guns

It turned out this was just a hoax, but the concept is awesome, and I think a lot of people would agree that it would make a fun game.

Pic related, I want to make a patrick Bateman like character and go around murdering people with better business cards than me.

Faggots I've been working on a metroidvania engine with all the abilties of sotn and more for the past year, it is 90% complete.

When I'm done I'll get you sluts to give me suggestions and art.

>>198682458
We're not making a game, we're trying, so it doesn't belong to /agdg/
>>198682491
shit

>>198682491
that sounds fucking great, im all for it

I know some programming, so I can help.

How about a /v/ mansion simulator?

The game starts when a small group of /v/irgins win a small amount of money in the lottery, and go out and buy a house. You buy games, decorations, servants, and other stuff to fill the house, but each /v/irgin has different tastes in vidya and you'll have to try to balance them out to keep everyone happy so they don't leave. Over time, as your house gains notoriety, more /v/irgins will come, and you can afford bigger things like rennovating and expanding the house.

so we have programmers now
at least people who claim they can do it
have you guys any kind of example of your work?

>>198681404
I like this. I've always been a believe that 4chan should be shut down every Friday and reopened every Monday to force all of you lonely neckbeard losers out into the real world and make you do something normal for a change.

Even you guys who claim that you're not lonely and actually happy with your lives will get forced out and finally realize just how much better normal life is and that you've been lying to yourselves all along.

Honestly, I think Ace of Spades would have been the /v/ game. I mean if they hadn't sold out or whatever.

The autistic could go and build their elaborate worlds that get saved and used as maps for us to have wars.

Instead of having stupid console debates, we can have wars and battles, and it would run on any old pc so everyone could join in.

Okay listen, guys-

You listening?

Good. First thing:

Fuck visual novels. Kutawa already exists.

We've been through this shit all the time, trying to make a game, then stuff goes to shit. I think we need to concentrate our efforts on something more easily accessible and less of a bitch to plan out and create. I say we tackle something simpler, like a puzzle game.

Why not a /v/ themed Panel De Pon? Just imagine all the crazy shit we could put in that along with the greatest puzzle gameplay this miserable ball of shit Earth has ever had the chance to hold.

Is there any way you could let us choose multiple options instead of just one?

/v/ tried that. It turned into "le ironic meme" black and white indie platformer.

>>198686359
man can we all just ignore the meme stuff and put some effort into something?

>>198685060

/v/ could prove their merit as a writer, rpg's tend to be lots of stats and story so it shouldn't be super hard if the art is simplistic no fucking wananbe 8 bit shit

>>198685645

I approve if it breaks the 4th wall with reckless abandon.

>>198685645

but good puzzle design is hard and requires effort

Typical /v/ game project:

4% artists
1% i can work in gamemaker!!

>>198686536
well like i said earlier im a wanna be writer so i could probably make something worthwhile

>yfw /sp/ has a video game and we don't

>>198687028
What video game?

I had a fun idea for a game back then, and assets too. Thing was about a small worm-parasite guy who moved in 2d and could inhabit bodies of enemies he defeats. You start out small and end up controlling big stuff like orangutans, elephants, dinosaurs and shit. It's a >plataformer but still, no retro bullshit, only minimalistic design.

I was planning this with a friend, we had a design doc, concept art and all kinds of stuff.

>>198686759
It's Panel De Pon, the design is pretty much taken care of. The issue is designing AI that's not batshit retarded. I think it has a lot of potential, much more than any other game we could pop out.

>>198680098 (OP)
as long as we use retro 8bit graphics and midis

/pol/ has one already; well, it's not exactly a videogame, it's a map. A Doom one

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=614akDkzvtE&feature=youtu.be

You don't have any idea how piss-easy is to make custom content in Doom. 18 years of maps and mods back this statement.

Of course, I'm saying this just in case you feel like using an old FPS game as a base. Making a mod is far more quicker than making a game from scratch, in my opinion.

>>198687675
I can do C++, but I'm more comfortable with C#

>>198687476
set in the wastelands of detroit

>>198687675
I'm fine with anything

Old school Zelda-like RPG. There are different races and gender and the story of the game depends on which race/gender you pick. Everyone is at war and the generals are all based on historical figures (Napoleon, Hitler, Stalin, etc.). You can either fight for against the side you start out on and there are multiple endings, some of which can only be achieved with certain race/gender combinations.

>>198687254
An RPG with cute traps in it sounds wonderful.

>>198688446
>>198688727
With XNA are you forced to use Windows LIVE?

May I suggest, assuming you're remotely serious about this, the following;

Your number one priority should be producing something playable as SOON as possible. Iteration should be rapid. Changes should be easy to make and gratifying to see.

Aim low. Do NOT decide to write a "custom engine." Use something already existing. Either mod an existing game, or use something like Unity or Game Maker.

It's okay to sacrifice some quality if it means you actually finish the fucking thing.

Also, you won't finish the fucking thing. But if you aim low and focus on rapid prototyping and getting playable builds out then whatever you're left with when the project inevitably dies will be way, way fucking better than the handful of "design documents" and "concept art pieces" you'd have from a loftier project.

>>>/agdg/

>>198689080
We can't do shit by ourselves as programmers, let's wait more people joins first.
And for the game to be decided, I'm interested by the loli FPS and the trap RPG.

>>198689624
I'm another programmer, but I'm also interested in both.

>>198689624
If we seriously did a FPS would it be multiplayer?

A Zelda styled games with random generation

>>198689436
That's not really true for a project with a very short shelf-life like this. People will have gotten bored and wandered off before you finished writing the "engine" in that setup.

I'd say treat this shit like Ludum Dare. Set short term goals with deadlines and accept whatever you got when that deadline hits.

>>198689726
ofc it would have to be (dead as it would be)

>>198689624
I'm not a fan of lolis or traps

I browse this board for the vidya

>>198688924
This guy is fucking right.
First thing we need to to is decide on what we're going to be making. Have a motherfucking plan. Get a basic idea of what we're going to make and how we're going to make it.
After that, we need a working barebones game. Basically just the eingine. Like, if we're making a platformer, we need an empty room where you can run and jump and shoot. If we're making an RPG, we need a town you can walk around and interact with shit. You get the idea. Bare bones. Not a game so much as a working experiment.
THEN, we build off of that working experiment and start incorporating story, art, etc. If we want to make a game, we start with the game, not the story or art.

>>198689883
Can you post the one /a/ made?

Construct 2 on Steam for free for rudimentary HTML5 games.

Renpy for surprisingly robust VNs.

Okay, perfect. Now I have this idea, just want to see if you guys think it'd work. Would we be able to implement a territories kind of thing like in San Andreas?

To explain, opposing sides would battle it out over a designated territory or area on the map, and the winning side would take over and color mark the area as theirs.

Kawaii territories?

Hey I can program in flash

How about a visual novel? I already have the code for that.

>>198689963
This is sort of correct, except that since there are multiple contributors it's very possible to have people working on the story/art WHILE other people are working on coding the game itself.

Assets are another factor to consider. 3D is going to drastically limit the number of people who can meaningfully contribute to the art assets. Certain genres also tend to have higher asset demands than others - an RPG for instance can be boiled down to a bunch of 2D stills if you go with an RPG Maker style combat system.
