That's cool, the worst part is that if you show this to kids today they will be like "omg minecraft clone".

[Fisherson]

That looks great Red but I still don't get how you share images using the Imgur App.

[Moosetroop11]

God, did you do that level editor from scratch?

Oh god, the horror.

Well, never used an app for it, but on the website it's pretty simple.

1) a: Upload your image
    b: hover your mouse over it
    c: press that downwards arrow at the corner of the image
   

2) a: Find the "BBCode (Forums)"
    b: Press the copy button beneath it
    c: Go to your forum post and paste it

Yeah, well, it's made in winforms so all the ui stuff is like premade standard windows stuff. But other than that, yeaaah. If I turn it into a game
I want to release it with a level editor so people can build custom maps for it.

-Never mind wrong one get do we have two boards for this lol-

Winforms make so much sense. I developed the level editor for DEA using XNA instead, so there's absolutely nothing event-driven about it,
and everything took ten times longer to build than it should have lol. Have you thought about the game loop yet for the game? Will it be an
arena-type FPS or roguelike or something?

Leaning towards story driven and level based. Not too big fan of just moving between monster arenas, would want to mix it up with puzzles or other activities as well. Just not sure what it would be yet. Story would be told between level in cutscenes more akin to something built in rpgmaker, like small sprites and top down angled perspective thing. But yeah, things might change starting to build a game in it is still a bit away.

Got floor and ceiling tiles working. Still need to update the editor to support it, so right now it's just the same temp textures on all the tiles.

[Prpl_Mage]

Looks great. My first though was that the floor and ceiling was the same, but realized it wasn't.

would want to mix it up with puzzles or other activities as well. Just not sure what it would be yet.

I imagine it being a lot of levers to be pulled, objects to be destroyed, finding clues to riddles/finding answers to trivia questions, codes etc. I assume it is limited by what type of actions the player can take.
As for activities, I imagine a shooting gallery type of game being realistic to make.

But you'll probably come up with something on your own, it's not like you are lagging behind in the puzzle department.

Messed around a bit in monogames yesterday and tried to create the basics for a wolfenstein 3D-ish game

My preteen years were spent in games like these. I didn't know there were makers for it. Aren't they a little gnarly and mondo out of date?

[Momeka]

Found the old code for this. Made the movement tile-based and added some code of ui. Thinking of turning it into a small dungeon crawler rpg thing:

[Prpl_Mage]

I both like it more than the previous version and not.
It kinda feels older with tile by tile movement, but at the same time I see the advantages of it when making a game.

[Donut]

You made it look better than Tower, I'm jealous
Would it be possible to see the code, just out of curiosity?

How is Tower coming along btw?

Yeah, was making an fps before but turning it into a dungeon crawler like Grimrock now. Feels more inline with what I usually make.

Mainly been following this ( https://lodev.org/cgtutor/raycasting.html ) and converting it into C#. But I can send it to you if you want. The code is really messy though : P

It's been abandoned, actually. I got bored of doing the level design. I hate level design xD

Oh looks great, I'll look into it. I'm not a fan of C#, so I'll pass on the code ahah. Thanks anyways
The idea looks similar to what I did for Tower tbh, maybe a bit better as it loops whereas I wasn't doing  a loop per say. The joys of a real programming language being used !
