Game Dev Memes

Oh really? So pointers then, well I be damned, I thought it was about garbage collection haha.

And here's another one. I know a couple of people who are like this, but in different "fields"

"I'm making an MMO!"

First post.

 

Let me guess... is it a Pokemon RPG?

 

It's going to be an open world where you can do anything you want and everything is destructible. I need programmers, artists, and modellers.

 

Yes, but will I be able to sit in chairs?

 

I'm not sure. Better make a thread asking if Unity can do this.

 

what do you mean I have to write it myself? Engine X can do it!

 

Bonus points to who-ever can name where the pic on the left comes from without looking it up.

 

easy, thats the album cover for 1987's Iron Maiden - Return DEATH

 

Ha, nope.

Anyone know?

 

Its either related to steve jobs or its related to some space movie.

 

Have to show off my cleverness.

Of course, I looked it up though.

 

Am I this only one to own Basic Programing for the Atari 2600?

That thing was awesome, it could store like 15 lines of code that you had to put in with the paddle controller!

 

<:0

 

Can you hack in 15 lines on an atari lol?

 

I recognized it right away but Misterselmo answered by cheating. Cheater. Cheatster. GameGenie. Like the dog in the picture (from the little known Atari game "Dog Programming 101"), I have no idea what I'm doing. Back to work.

 

Hey man, dang old... us young folks can't really rely on having seen things that went out of circulation before we were conceived. Luckily, I know pretty much everything else, including reverse image lookup. :B :B :B

 

Looked so familiar but I couldn't place it.

Never had it but remember seeing that book way back then.

 

thats a lot of chocolate

 

Running tests...
100% tests passed, 0 tests failed out of 26

 

I did. The keyboard don't have ALT, { } curly braces, ` tilde, Alt and you had to press certain combination of keys to do things.

In order to do drawing, it was quite hard.
You had a color palette of 16, 32, 64, 256, 16128, 32256 and 65536 colors, depending on 8-bit, 16-bit and duplex mode.



Reference:

 

I vote for this thread to be pinned.

 

Oh this thread again?

My reaction every time I visit the Collaboration subforum (and sometimes the Getting Started too):

 

I wish my games had as much attention as my post here had!

 

It is up to me then, an unaffiliated 3rd party, to request that you link your game to the post which is getting the attention. Then we can all see it, and it was a request that it be there.

 

I did not know that existed.

I vaguely remember having a on screen keyboard pop up, the scrolling through the letters with the paddle. I was very young when we had it.

 

It's a long time ago. I was schooling around 1980's.

Do you remember playing Pong or Dig Dug in the arcades?

OMG Dig Dug is so addictive...

 

When we had that I remember constantly looking for another qaurter to go to the Kwik-E-Mart to play Double Dragons.

 

Noob makes MMORPG

WHEN YOU FIND THE SOURCE OF THE BUG



true story

 

I used to see all the boys play that game. Gradius, King's Quest, Space Quest...

You'll have to refer to Interrupt assembly op-codes using RB's Interrupt List to decipher what the assembly does.

The CGA and EGA op-codes were not very well known in the 1980's.
Now use OpenGL or DirectX or use full solution - Unity.

Trying to get a dynamic level generation working with Unity NavMesh. There was varying success for my use cases before I finally gave up and went to Aron Granberg's A* Pathfinding...

Also, tracking down a javascript bug in dataSource handling in pretty much any library/framework resembling MV* [credit]

 

Real devs use binary

 

This one!!

 

if i press the "done" key, does my work get done?

 

I made this...


After watching this:

 

Can't find a floating bug? Here it is!

 

I planned to start collecting those in 2016. But I'm having second thoughts.
