  1. Don’t roll out your own crypto suite
  2. Don’t write your own game engine
  3. Don’t create your own OS from scratch
  4. Don’t build another multipurpose framework
  5. …

  Whom am I kidding, go do all of that! Learn why you most probably shouldn’t 😆

    5. Don't make an MMORPG as your first ever game with only you and your one friend as devs

      Oddly specific?

      What is this smell? Is that the smell of self experience?

      Oh, was it you who made Sociolotron?

    What if I make an OS that's also a game engine?

  Making your own engine is worthwhile learning experience. The same as trying to recreate any of the foundational tools that you use. Might not be the fastest or best way to make a game but a good way to make yourself a better developer.

    Not the fastest

    This is my 4th Vulkan related “project” and 2nd attempt at making something other than a glorified tutorial workspace in 6 years, and it took me 4 weeks to draw this stuff with minimal technical debt.

    I could just use an existing game engine, but what’s the fun in not manually sorting all draw commands by mesh>pipeline>material and hunting synchronization hazards by just looking at funny glyphs for extended periods of time?

    Keep in mind that if you actually want to make a game, make a game not an engine. Too many video game projects get bogged down in the engine development stage and never make it to completion.

      This was supposed to release years ago https://camelotunchained.com/v3/

      Do people even make their own engines anymore? If this wasn’t a pet project I would have dropped the entire thing as soon as I started dealing with 3D models, and visited Godot’s homepage.

      …

      Perhaps I should get my hands on Godot at some point.

    Jesus Christ, thank you. I haven’t laughed that hard in a year or more. My sides hurt.

  Now do a camera that can be controlled

  • Sonotsugipaa@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Done, that wasn’t the hard part - after that I spent a few days on normal mapping and passable light reflections

    source

    • dylanTheDeveloper@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      What kind of method you gonna use for reflections?
