So, today is the beginning. It is the start of what is going to be a very productive project and a rewarding experience. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// What we are going to do—together, you guys are going to be with me every step of the way— is to develop and construct an Indie 2D game. Along the way, I will providing you guys with every single update and change to the game. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Alright so now that we have all the logistics out of the way, let's talk about what kind of game we are going to develop. Keep in mind, though, that the game is going to change a million and one times. However, for the overall design, it is going to be something like this: ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// We are going to have our player, here, dropped into a map. As far as the maps go, that will be further down in development. The idea is we're gonna have a variety of different maps that the player can play in. The player is going to be playing against either NPC's, other players, or both. The objective is to kill everyone else and stay alive—a free for all, in essence. The controls are going to be arrow keys for movement, with mouse to aim and shoot. That is pretty much the basic design we have for the game. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// So, mixing in the first update with this intro video, I have coded the basic engine for the game. What we have going, so far, is the physics with the gravity and jumping. The movement. And the collision detection with the player and platforms. Alright I think that concludes this video. Hopefully we can get the ball rolling here and things will get better! Thanks for watching, see you in the next video.
