What does a good game consist of? (part 31)

Level tasks

Making fun tasks for the level, is fun developing and makes for
excellent levels. This can be missions, secrets, quests, objectives,
puzzles, side quests, unlocks, story tasks, memory puzzles and most

importantly explore tasks.  Legend of zelda: breath of the wild has a
very large ammount of stuff to beat after you bet the all the story
line quests and levels. It's not necessary, but still hell tons of

fun. All level tasks work something like a bar code, it is hard to
decrypt, unless you have something like a c++ encryption. However,
even levels tasks are built by a game maker or in some cases a

programming language, so we are back to the start of the problem.
Really challenging levels might sound ten times over expensive or
sometimes just plain stupid, but it's a more than welcome reality.

Making camp levels is for example a giant channel, becomes it
requires tons of investment and copy rights support of the us army
army, but with a lot of creativity it is possible to made anyways.

Here is an example level tasks in level design documentation:

the first floor is basic

It is a floor based level design:

First floor = regular rewards
second = regular + unlocks
third = uncommon + unlock + secrets
fourth = boss key

This is a 3 d game. Getting on a higher sounds easy, but it isn't.
This is just a basic pattern example for you to understand, how level
tasks work. Here's another:

main mission = beat the level in 20 min = 20 points
bonus mssion #1 = ?                                = 15 points
bonus mssion #2= ?                                 = 15 points
bonus mssion #3= ?                                 = 15 points

object oriented programming

Object oriented programming is a sound and bold approach to c++ and internet wiring application and video games. It reduces a lot of code messes, made by global and half global functions. One of the more advanced object programming techniques are private access, poly morph and object message inheritance. It is set by c++ bjarne stroustrup and iso isometric standard convention comitee to use classes instead of structs and structures for making objects. Which means you most definitely should , but not must or have to. class Monster {     std::string memory_attributes{}; public:     void treck();     void track();     void trace(); }; The treck() function makes the monster roam and do human like jogging and trimming. track() means the monster goes ai path tracking and trace() means it tries to find other monsters in the area. class Weapon {     std::string memory_attributes{}; public:    void use(); }; void Weapon::use() {   ...

object render, part 4

Object is either two dimensional, or three dimensional. Even abstract ones. People imagine c++ game objects as a part of a class on a graph chart, to understand the game and development mechanics. But they are really two dimensional, iso metric or three dimensional. They can be seen on the level or the level map, in other words, about 90% of used classes. Even server objects can be seen on the game, if there is any blue print or underlying real world net working mechanism. So in other words, the class objects can be used in game. They have to be dimensional. //PvE class Monster {     std::vector<int>  head_memory{};     std::vector<int> body_particles{}; public:     int get_memory(int element);     int get_particles(int element);     int get_head_memory_size();;     int get_body_particles_size(); }; Monster's head memory is used for AI render, the body particles list is used for rendering. 60 frames per second...

object render, part 3

 Making a object requires a class call, but also has to be rendered. Monster monster{}; monster = new Monster[10]; void render_monster(Monster* monster_array); The iso c++ standard says you should use classes for making objects, not structs(structures). Considering it is a standard.  With emphasis on  should , not  must . It is a standard, not a coding rule. It was set forth by iso commitee and bjarne stroustrup. Polymorphism allows us to make multiple monster arch map types. virtual void render_monster(std::string map_name, int type=0); Atch map is a data map about what all is happening in the game, like for example campaign map. It allows making archetypes. monsters, for more efficient run time memory and pointers managing bugs and random access memory. Random access memory can hold quite many objects. class BackPack {     std::string inventory_node{}; };
