What's a game without something to do?
My ships can dogfight one another, but there was no real match progression.
I created some objectives that must be destroyed on the large carrier ships.
After destroying all the objectives, you can destroy the carrier ship.
So, it becomes a race to see whic…
If you've made your game in Unity or Unreal and designed it to work with a gamepad on PC, it can potentially work directly on game consoles with minimal changes. I've worked on a few ports where nearly everything worked out of the box because the PC version focused on xbox controllers.
If you'…

So I decided to get back to my hobby Text Adventure Game project a week ago or so, but going has been slow. I have been fluffing about a lot in BodHi (a super light weight build of Ubuntu), screwing with MonoDevelop and SFML.NET. I even took a look at HAXE. It is important to me that th…
We used Google Analytics some years ago with great success, but there are many similar platforms. “Analytics” is the key word and then you can throw “games” or “mobile” in there.
Okay okay. That's a cool start. It's almost like a modern-day version of clue but with stats.

You've optimized all of the low-hanging fruits of your game. Except that you didn't. You missed a sneaky, non-so-obvious spot: optimizing your Unity Scene Hierarchy.

In episode 9, Jeremy discusses Untitiled Goose Game and a principle, that making games is like playing Apples-to-Apples with your "silly" friends. Jeremy also dives into Mode 7 again and discusses the significance of this line of code:

Just one more song...
Those famous last words of a videogame musician convincing a programmer to add the last audio track to the game that was about to be released.
What could possibly go wrong?
I'll tell you: that last song added a mere water drop to a glass that was about to spill.

1024 nailed it. People were fooled into thinking the AI was better than it was. The stuff that happened in there that is GOAP based is easily duplicatable in plenty of architectures such at BTs or utility.

You should reply to that thread letting them know your version number for both Unity and Unity IAP.

By regressing to a simpler workflow as shown to the right, I can focus on my new…
Still some rough edges and lots more that could be done, but it's essentially finished. You can restart a game, see the score and the snake can get much longer (a trivial change).

This code is similar to that I posted in @phil67rpg 's blog but with comments and updated to remove some unnecessary stuff.
I'll finish it off by making the snake grow longer, otherwise it's not much of a challenge.
Be kind on the code, I wanted to see what I c…

If you have worked on somebody else’s project, you know how hard it is to makes sense of long blocks of complicated codes not written by you. There were many reasons Apple introduced Swift Programming Language in 2014 to replace Objective-C, Apple’s primary programming language since 1996. The m…

Finding a bug has always meant that half the work is done. Validating the bug with the developers makes or breaks the effort taken in finding the bug. Usually, a lot of bugs are overlooked due to the fact that the explanation has been poor/incomplete/ under-defined. At th…

Many devs I’ve spoken to or given advice for with regards Dream Build Play all worry about one BIG thing – Will It all be finished ready for the Big December deadline!
