What does a good game consist of? (part 39)

Stealth tools

Splinter Cell games got really good way of performing tools. The more
moves and techniques you know, the more likely you'll beat the level.
Examples are night vision, third person camera look behind walls,

triple beam laser, full legs stretch(far above the ground). You have
to keep in mind that tools here also implies anything than else than
weapons, as in various toolkits of all types. Like pistol silencer,

camping shovel(to make a stealth camp), food, water and other needs
for survival. It is possible  to get creative and make outstanding and
unique, when it comes to the kind of tools your games uses. Also keep

in mind 2 dimensional games use stealth to. How to devise a stealth
tool? Here is a good example: if you are making a first person shooter
stealth game, you can try cloak modules, that consist a camoflague

cloak. There is one thing you have to keep in mind though, the actual
cloak structure and what kind of a cloak you use. In other words,
modules consist a cloak together, and there are other cloaks, other

than just invisibility. There is a camo cloak(use of military
camoflague colors, double mix of green and brown, combined with
a cover module) and a time cloak(you disappear for ten seconds,

and cannot be seen by any one, not even the actual cloak traces).
If you want to make an unique type cloak yourself, just use modules
to construct one(in code and design, not actual game, preferably).

modules: color mix, cover, (invisibility) = camo cloak

modules: disappear, (invisibility) = time cloak

Try making your own cloak types and modules, and also to try to make
other outstanding stealth tools. Apply brilliant ideas, and
possibilities are endless. It will take time and effort, but is well

worth of being on a path of making a good game.

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() {   ...

Coding and game development, part 2

 Consider the following C++ sample: int main() {     std::cout << template_1() << '\n';     return 1;      } Every moron who knows C++ would know what this means. Now consider that almost every line is a regular expression, so try to translate it into your native language, English for example; line by line in steps. ... rofl lol oO? I tried to do that with the example and my head almost had a system shutdown.

What does a good game consist of? (part 32)

Map overlay Making a map overlay is hard, as maps can change and grow. Map overlay is basically a different map than it was at the start of the game. That encourages the player to think while trying to win a match or a puzzle. The main map doesn't have to change that much over time, while the overlay works as a collection of all of the tactical actions made by same clan. Some sort of a clan map, in other words. A clan map is hard to read by other clans. But not impossible, when team speak and fighting tactics are put into use. Personal map overlay can be used to advice on mission, which is generated procedurally, but not necessarily randomly. Another good overlay is tactical and strategical, all of these types overlay are sent to developers for the lore overlay, which is very hard to get hands on if you are not a developer. Tactical overlay is a good way to lead a fireteam, or a squad, but also leaves data traces on the world map. In video games, trick rivalry is high and enemies, ...
