What does a good game consist of? (part 11)

"I make games and I'm proud of it"

This is another interesting quote from Raph Kostert's "A Theory of Fun for Game Design". It represents a very important aspect every good game developer should understand. If you make games in pride of the processes, you'll enjoy it and most importantly, you'll realize you're contributing to humanity.

Why is that true? Because of what I've stated in the first part of the series. If we continually don't fight for a better game design and quality of development of every role in the process, world will not keep up with the need for really good games, the influence of games on other multimedia, books and all types of arts and sports will be affected. Which means the world is in small-chance, but high-potential danger.

I really am proud to call myself a game developer.

Level design basics, part 6

Blocks It takes a lot of building blocks to make a video game level. Video games are after all nothing but very sophisticated and complicated toy games. You can start by making very small pieces of code, say ten of them. After put them in separate files and connect them together. Using JavaScript should do a good trick here. TypeScript defines code blocks, modules and scripts. Forest campaigns are hard to make, but are real fun to play. It is a great adventure, even if it is not a role playing game; and regard less of the weather. Weather and weather conditions are two very different things. Weather conditions are a clausal, all you have to is switch a weather variable: std::string weather{"sunny"}; weather = "rain"; That is a good way to implement into a video game. But weather is something else, it's a cloud system. Very hard to make changing weather. int weather_clouds{10}; weather_clouds+=1; Pick the one you prefer and are capable of doing. So a major buildi
