Hello!

Post by Tamagoyaki »

Hi,I came here from Poland and I feel that my journey is about to end :-) I like very much the idea of this website and forum :DMy favourite space game is Transcendence by George Moromisato. I am totally crazy about it :mrgreen: To be honest - I have a big amount of ideas, which I want to contain in my own space sim, but I don't even write them down - I know that world is cruel place where no programmers can be found ;)

Hey TamagoyakiWelcome to SSC and feel free to kick back and stay a while there is a lot of room on the station, so its ok to be a squatter for a while.I like Transcendence myself it is a great game and watched it go through many revisions working it's way up to 1.0 :) Nice accomplishment for George M. that is for sure. I know the other day I was searching the net for some engines that come help me make something without too much programming knowledge and I came across a engine called RenPy and it allows you to almost make like a video story style game or just a story and I was going to start playing with that. Only thing is I kinda stink at making any type of art :)Have fun in the forums Tamagoyaki, there is a lot of projects in the works.

I'm specialized Transcendence speedrunner - I'm sick when my game time is longer than 6 hours :mrgreen: Hmm, I've found something called Construct (mentioned here). Anybody knows its difficulty level, capabilities and limitations? It looks really promising...

I have been watching it for a while now but have been waiting for it to go v1.0 to really dedicate time into learning it. And for right now it is still a 2D/2.5D engine.

I absolutely love 2D games - 3D make me sick :DIt seems to be something I was looking for - but also I prefer to wait for 1.0

Star Sonata is a bit of a pain to play because the griefers that you run into in that game. But another game like Transendence that is in development is Naev.

NAEV - I guess that name means Not Another Escape Velocity :mrgreen: Unfortunately it won't run on Vista (or even install - maybe it's a bug, I must retry install it).BTW, I'm getting started with Construct - it's rather hard to do some things in it (i.e. transcendence-like small ship behavior - circling around playership and shooting into it), even space-like movement is hard to do (but remember that I'm still learning its features). Maybe it will be good idea to make a suitable subforum for Construct when 1.0 comes out? It will be cool to exchange ideas with you :D

Hmm Naev should work because I have played that on Win7x64 with no issues.On Construct, right now the modding and coding section area is meant for all that but if peoples interest in the engine develop I can definitely make one. But make a thread maybe in the show-off area and get some feedback on whatever project you are working on. I know for me its just sitting down to learn it that is the obsticle for me :)

OK, I'll start a new thread as soon as I manage to sort it (and when I find someone who can make it understandable fix damage caused by my horrible english :F)About Construct - I was trying to make spaceship movement, but I'm too stupid for it, so I gave up :/
