*The Adventurers' Guild

Mojotron: Robot Wars is a twin stick shooter similar to Robotron: 2084 or Llamatron. The game is open source but hard to run due to the old libraries it uses. I've created a kickstarter to help fund open source game development. The kickstarter launches Aug 6th but you can signup to be notified of t...

I've avoided 3D printers specifically because they still require some fiddling. Not to mention I see all these cool models and think a 3D printer would require a lot of printing. Another streamer played my jam entry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uO-5p49coNs Definitely need to improve the experien...

If you are looking for games to try from the game jam, I wrote an article for gamingonlinux.

I wrote up a postmortem of the game.

The person running the jam did It Came from the Forest. It used a unity package to generate the 2D views. Look interesting but I don't really want to install unity to render images.

The global flags are what I used to make the quests. One flag indicates the quest and active. Once completed you clear that flag and set the second. Ideally you want more than the 16 characters to describe the quest. Maybe have a scrollable list and allow you to select an entry to get more details. ...

I have the original tileset files. I can change Wilderness tileset door to that Guild image, but it won't look as good. I'm find with what I've got. The plan was to not add new features to implement this game but I'm not sticking to that. I'm working on a way to add new key commands. I want to have...

The only problem with doing it outside is the transition. You walk up to a blank square and suddenly you are in the Adventurer's guild. The door image in the forest looked kinda like a cave. I could just ignore it and say it opens up after the rocks. Thanks for the help.

Is this an issue with WYSWIGS? If you need placeholders to overhaul it, when you feel inclined to do so, just ask. Yeah, I REALLY want the 3D View to be fullscreen. :P I've been perusing Steam and Gog for some dungeon crawler types, but they all have the "retro" feel. Nothing wrong with t...

Starting to wonder if I chose poorly. I've got three goblins but I need a review board, adventurer's guild, and healer. Maybe a shop too. I tried modifying Roscoe and Evil Monks. I'm not entirely satisfied with the results. The cave backgrounds come from the Ancient Beast game. http://identicalsoftw...

Bt Builder 0.5.19 has been released. It now supports transparencies in monster images. Also in itemtype.xml you can now add to the arrow entry "<bowDamage>bow</bowDamage>". This will make it use the damage of the bow not the arrow. I wanted this for Star Song. The "bows" would be...

Looks great. Bt Builder can't do that right now. It would require really fixing the UI code to be able to implement that.

I don't think the flame icon should tear at this point. It should clear to the background image first. The 3D view isn't handled that way. Or rather it wasn't handled that way. I've updated the code to support transparency in the slot images. The picture selection screen doesn't work right at the mo...

It runs until the 15th. I debated asking you for something but I think it might be better to just work with the current limitations. I don't think the images will make or break the game. I think I need a compelling story and things to do.

https://itch.io/jam/dcjam2022 I started thinking of ideas. I initially thought of doing a dark elf game. You start in the dungeon and need to travel to the surface to attack the humans. Maybe give you a spider as a race/class. However we don't have a lot of dark elf images. I found some free pixel ...

Now, IF you have to get under the hood to fix code *AND* you feel inclined to do so (I know your interest in BTBuilder has waned), could you also make slots display transparent backgrounds? I switched to an indie license for Maya, 'cos it's cheaper, but Autodesk no longer supports Mental Ray. So, I...
