blaise rascal posted:Yes we will need that stuff. What kind of music do you like to make? I can make all kinds of music, mostly I make electronic/ambient music but I can also write chiptuney stuff or do things with acoustic guitar. I also did a lot of synthesis in school and am prepared for all kinds of foley/SFX work! |

TheAardvark posted:Imo something that involves lots of types of eggs with a template for people to do whatever they want would be a great way to get more people to contribute Some more ideas tossed around in discord: -super egg bros -egg the hedgehog -egg: symphony of night -mortal kombat but everyone's eggs so the fights are really short -all 4 of the above ideas but packaged together into a warioware game -a bullet hell where you have to avoid being hit, getting hit makes the egg crack open Also, the game window will be 960x540, with everything blown up 2x, so your sprites have to fit into a 480x270 window. I hope to show off a demo of the dialog system tonight, so you all will see how it fits together...

This sounds awesome! I will attempt to help with any ideas (programming/art/dialog/sfx) which happen to capture the attention of my ADHD to receive necessary effort. I'll probably end up just photoshopping random sprites. I'm eggcited. Edit: I'd like to propose egg based puns for the title, like "Hard Boiled" or "Over Easy". pseudorandom fucked around with this message at 01:48 on Dec 12, 2020 |

https://blaise-rascal.itch.io/dialog-demo Okay here is a demo of the dialog system! Click the link to try it out! Those of you who want to write, hopefully this gives you a better idea of the possibilities for writing dialog (or descriptions or whatever). The dialog does not need to be triggered by clicking a button; I can make it trigger at the start of the game, or when you interact with something in the environment, or whatever. I can make it say different things if you interact with the same item more than once. I can also add a little box that says "Bob" or whoever is talking. These are placeholder graphics and should be replaced! Here they are if you want to make them fancier. (If you do intend to do this, please post in the thread, so that multiple people don't try to do the same work)

TheAardvark posted:Imo something that involves lots of types of eggs with a template for people to do whatever they want would be a great way to get more people to contribute this makes me imagine a logistics game where you have egg varieties arriving on a conveyor belt and have four cartons to fill. you receive more points for more matches in egg type within the carton, so there is an element of gamesmanship in terms of deciding which eggs to commit to, and which to let pass by. i forgot about checking the rules before i started working on this last night, so it might not be allowable, but here is the prototype of the 3d shmup i mentioned. i just changed the tower into an egg cup when i saw the theme. the idea is you destroy the power station, bringing down the shield, then the shell, and the ultimate objective to to collect the yolk inside https://i.imgur.com/CYUMkrT.mp4 |

What would such an rpg look like? What would the main character be? If the main character is not an egg, then I'm thinking either a pig (farm setting) or a piece of toast (city setting). regarding mentions of a discord, is this serious overchill or a different BYOB discord? if the former, which channel is this happening in?

i was just having a chicken coop game concept while i was on a walk, with a rts/clicker mechanic. your units are chickens and you can assign them to lay an egg, sit on an egg to make it hatch faster, or build more nests so you can have more eggs at once. and you just get as many chickens as you can. |

blaise rascal posted:I keep coming back to the idea of an enemy regularly showing up to attack your chickens & eggs, and you have to drive it back. It doesnt have to be a tough enemy to defeat, but games like Insaniquarium and Gaiadi use this mechanic to good effect. What if the villain is Colonel Sanders trying to steal your chickens, and the game is called Colonel Panic? I also anticipate being able to place structures. Corn stalks produce corn, maybe there's a chicken clothing store which will put hats on chickens which makes them more productive, structures that automatically collect eggs, that automatically feed chickens, that attack the Colonel... The idea of exponentially building up your economy is a time-tested game mechanic. Okay, I'm leaning toward this idea. I know it's tough to explain but it'll make more sense as we get into it. I like the rpg idea too, but I think I'll put a nix on it because of lack of ideas being generated in this thread. But maybe byob will make an rpg in the future. For now, though, I have a simple request from all of you: I'm gonna need a LOT of egg drawings. Details to come in a moment... pseudorandom posted:regarding mentions of a discord, is this serious overchill or a different BYOB discord? if the former, which channel is this happening in?

So, we're gonna need a lot of unique eggs. Here are the requirements: Each egg should have a name Each egg needs to have a cute / funny description, one or two sentences long. Each egg should be roughly this size: Note that your eggs do not have to be this shape! They can be circular, or anything your heart desires. The template image is 116x153, and an image you make should have a max size of about 150x180. Example: MYSTICAL EGG Description: Contains the secrets of the cosmos. blaise rascal fucked around with this message at 01:34 on Dec 13, 2020

blaise rascal posted:This is amazing. I'll try to work Charles D'Egg into the game. Unfortunately, I think what we will need is not a egg salesman, but a chicken & other items salesman (and you pay for your items with eggs). Like, they may sell machines that automate parts of the farming process. I can rework Charles D'Egg into a chicken and other items salesman. |

blaise rascal posted:So, we're gonna need a lot of unique eggs. Here are the requirements: I don't have anything specific in mind, but I want to ask this preemptively. If I wanted to add things that add to the size of the egg, like a hat, should the whole sprite be shrunk so it fits the vertical size of your example, or can the sprite be larger as long as the egg itself is the same as the example? edit: or should we just stick to eggs without added components?

By the way, all of these eggs will function identically in the game. They’ll be dropped at random, and whenever you pick up a new one, it will pop up the egg picture and the description of the egg. pseudorandom posted:I don't have anything specific in mind, but I want to ask this preemptively.

I thought of an egg that's more intensive to implement, use if useable... It's a Fabergé Puzzle Egg! Quite rare to find one in working condition. An enticing clue is etched in the purple enamel: "EGG." The first egg is how it looks when you find it, the second is the solution, the third is a blank one. The idea is clicking an animal's face would change it to the next one (Ant, Bear, Cat, Dog, Elephant, Frog, Goat, then back to Ant) If you line it up to Elephant, Goat, Goat... something good happens? https://giant.gfycat.com/sillyremorsefuldipper.webm |

Scream Egg This mouthy little egg just screams and screams. Softstone Egg A well-worn egg. Perhaps it was part of a cobblestone road once, or a few bricks in a fine wall. Discreet Bee Egg A specialized bee egg for those with private bee egg needs. No questions asked. MyEgg Wow, remember MyEgg? If it was still around, I'd put you in my top dozen. https://giant.gfycat.com/sillyremorsefuldipper.webm |
