    Any fiction writers here?

    Not sure if it counts, but I write plots/quest chains for the RPG I'm building. I don't write anything else these days (I'm dyslexic and struggle a bit with the actual writing process), but it's a nice break from programming/art sometimes. Although if anyone wants to write quest chains/dialogue...

    Is anyone good at designing basic combat systems for RPG style games?

    Hi, yeah any help would be really appreciated. I have no prior experience with this stuff, so I'm a bit of a loss! If it's ok, I'll PM you rather than clog up the forum with my ramblings.

    Is anyone good at designing basic combat systems for RPG style games?

    I'm working on a hobby game with a few other developers and artists. We've got most of it covered, but our combat system lacks much detail (other than character A whacks character B and causes n damage, then character B whacks character A and causes n damage). Our original system was far too...

    Anyone want to team up and build something?

    Update: We are no longer using Discord, as most of the team members were using Slack already and I couldn't think of a good enough reason to refuse! But despite putting the project on hold during lockdown we have continued planning and building and now have about 5 core people working with us...

    Help, Everything Looks Like Dungeons & Dragons!! :P

    I don't think it's crazy at all. When I began learning to code I started to break down random tasks into 'code' as if I was programming myself or another person to replicate that task. If I spend time writing code these days, I tend to slip back into the same habit for a while afterwards.

    Does having ASD make it tougher to learn drawing fundamentals?

    In my (albeit limited) experience, designers and technical artists can fall into two different skill sets. I can draw fairly photorealistically if I have an object/person in front of me to 'copy', but coming up with creative designs is far more difficult. On my team right now we have two...

    Fellow Gamers, how has gaming helped you in your life?

    I teamed up with a few other people who had various things like autism, adhd, schizophrenia, etc and we are building a game of our own (that will incidentally help kids with similar issues in the future). It's been great learning new skills alongside other people (most of us were total noobs in...

    Unable to relax and addicted to being productive

    I have the same issue. Except when I'm with a partner (because I can rationalise to myself that I'm making the relationship better). But when I'm single I can't stop working until I crash. I have no off switch.

    Anyone want to team up and build something?

    This is still happening (focusing on the school part first, as that's a humongous task in itself). The main challenge we have right now (which we didn't really expect) is the sheer amount of work required up front to map out the entire world. We aren't building the entire thing in one go...

    I was robbed (in a manner of speaking)

    One of the hardest lessons I had to learn in life is that ideas are ten a penny. Coming up with an idea is generally the easy bit. I can guarantee other photographers will have had the same idea as you and the photographers you mention. But the same idea can be redone in different ways and gain...

    Maps

    I'm resurrecting an old thread here, but we're need a LOT of maps designing for a game world if anyone is interested? I've mentioned it elsewhere on the forum, but we're building a 'gamified school' based in a virtual RPG that's set in an alternate version of earth (to start with - we want to...

    A quick search came up with a bunch of studies showing single women with no kids live longer than married ones. I'm not sure how marrying increases life span unless the relationship continues to be great throughout life. Most fight, cheat, divorce, or end up depressed and living seperate lives...

    Tree with Puzzle Pieces

    Never seen it before, so don't care personally.

    Why do so many aspies have an intense hatred for sports (excepting martial arts and brainy games)?

    I don't dislike sports (not a fan of watching, bar the odd game of rugby) but I'm no good at most things. I'm ok at long distance running, which doesn't require much skill or coordination other than not tripping over things. I can do yoga or biking, but nothing competitive.
