What are you working on? (Game Making Thread)

[united washcloth express]

What does it mean by "pillage"? Are we referring to her village?

 

[Sgt. Cookie]

Where is this game? I want to play it.

 

[Pokémaniac]

Made some transitions. "Battle!"

Working on my battle system.

 

[Sgt. Cookie]

Scouring the scripts section for some useful stuff.

 

[BwdYeti]

Working on trial maps to use in demos instead of story chapters, so I can show people mechanics I've finished without giving away the story.
Let's see... Forts/thrones/gates heal people now; I can change the missions AI units are using on the fly; and Brigands know how to go after towns and pillage them, as well as finally being able to walk over mountains through a skill. Just need to make shops work and the first map might be done ' 3'

Oh, and finally decided on a way to make a ton of animated water tiles without smashing autotiles together until they worked. This'll save me some trouble.

 

[Kingdom Ablaze]

going crazy trying to fix last couple of bugs so i can release my world map script

 

[Ellie]

Still working on the battle system (original mockup was http://bb.hbgames.tk/upload/t.png). It's really getting somewhere, but it doesn't look like it at the moment:

Regardless of the looks, it is actually nearly done if you take _1, _2, as being "placeholder variables" for longer html strings that will create the messages in the mockup screenshot. (In actuality, the battle log is a string in the form "1_2_3_4_3_1_9_2" which will be broken down into an array in the form [1, 2, ... 2], that will be linked to an array of html messages, so as to ease database storage. Make sense?)

[moxie]

I'm trying to learn Ruby; starting with small things so I don't get discouraged because I'm a big dumbface that has zero aptitude for programming.

By the way, if any of you have aim, shoot me a PM. I would love to have someone to bounce ideas off of.

 

[action]

Staring in jealousy at BwdYeti's FE fan-game

Oh, and I'm doing real character art now - no concepts! And I may just have a story :P

 

[Daxis]

trying out game maker 8. the different between this and rm is startling; i guess i should get used to that.

 

[mawk]

I'm batting around character designs and marvelling at how easy things suddenly get when you ask for help. I should be able to make some legitimate shown-in-editor progress by the end of the week, and then start a thread and open opt-in appearances.

 

[Ellie]

Nearly done my battle system, just some language issues (enemies come out as "you" lol)

 

[regi]

The storyline is moving along nicely. I'm also working on puzzles and gameplay for the remodeled first dungeon, the Golmar Mines. Yeah, that's right, actual progress, now that summer's come!
