Global Game Jam @ 2019 January 25 - 27 with Friends


A 3 day 2 night game development event, Global game jam and held at KDU Glenmarie. With a team of 3 people, we haven't done our game until the end but we learned much on the development. Such as modeling, coding, designing, editing using software like photoshop, magicavoxel, unity. Due to inexperienced we doesn't allocate work properly and lastly only done modeling & some mechanic part like health, damage, team check. But still many mechanic haven't done like taming, spawning and more. Sadly doesn't meet our expectation but really enjoy when developing in this event, KDU's student also very friendly to we. Thanks for the all participate for sharing in this event.

Event & Game Information

This global game jam event title is about "What is home means to you". So we have come with idea bring characters ( player ) back to home, or with defensive feature also dialog chat. Lastly we decide with Realtime-Strategy Defensive Game ( RTS Defensive ) about a stone age human want to defend his forest and fighting with the one who coming for chop down tree ( enemy ). In this, we would like to implements timeline feature about changing era from stone age until future age ( mobs will keep upgrading and become stronger & also enemy is human will become high-tech mobs ).


What it will be at start, will like this 2 human is incoming for attacking your home and player controlling mobs to attack the human. The house beside the tree is about mating system when have 2 mobs has going for mating will produce a small new mobs ( age system ).


Sometime besides of human incoming attacking, they will stop for a time and when that time you can go for outside for taming mobs. They are neutral mobs, they will attack player's mobs & enemy's mobs.

Different mobs have different skill & attributes so this is the way we extends more strategy on defending and the goal is defend as long as you can. The mobs also have their own AI about pathfinder goal.

Software


MagicaVoxel is a free to use modeling program. As you have seen all of the our models is look like cube, it's created by MagicaVoxel. In their official website also have many wonderful art, you may go for a look.

What we have planned is if we are free enough, we would like to continue development & target on mobile phone as who is interested can come to pm me hope we work together well. Thanks for your time.

Preparing some plugins for upcoming server

Since i still having a free server from mine friends who in Taiwan keep supporting me for server hosting. For long time busy, and he hope i would still operate and having a survival server so i coming to build up a survival server that not like before only enhance survival gameplay instead of new gameplay and make player doesn't even know how to play. Here come with some idea before i preparing: Custom Building Structure ( Make player easier for some basic works ) Custom PvP & PvE Mechanic ( Make item flexible with skill system and update-able, also work with entity ) Socialize Gamplay ( Guilds & Friends & Party & Mail System ) Daily Gameplay ( Questing, Events )  Any suggestion would be appreciated ( welcome to inbox me :] ) Some images about mine developments in these 2 days. Mine Structure API Skill API work with Items system & Status system And here is the video about the Custom Building Structure Part. As past exp

Backend Developer & Development [ Part 1 ]

Backend developer is a develop who maintain the work users /  clients can't see such as processing transaction, data structure, data transfer. These works would contains in a API server and API server contains many endpoint that can call by anyone but only success when fulfill endpoint requirements so it is secured. API Server also know as REST API ( Representational State Transfer ). It's processing like client request to server & after server process return response to client. API Server is develop by backend developer and this api server can be many type and different language, different framework such as Ruby on Rails ( RoR ) using Ruby Python PHP ( Laravel & Yii2 ) Java ( Spring ) C# ( ASP.NET & NancyFX ) Node.JS ( ExpressJS, SailsJS, HapiJS, NestJS, FeatherJS ) Different framework have their own advantages and can be used on different projects based on their features and usage. In the development not only choosing frameworks also need to ch

A long journey before i going back to other platforms

That's a long journey for going work on mine other projects due to i participate a startup mate together work on a startup projects. In the projects, i learn and workaround back-end framework in many of languages ( due to private work cant show too much code ). Also i does self-taught some front-end frameworks by learn from mine front-end mate's code & re-base using flutter . It was taken about half of a year to build up a proper back-end server due to inexperienced of my skills and technique so take time to learn. I have also played around many frameworks such as   Back-end ExpressJS - Most basic of the back-end frameworks NestJS - A progressive Node.js framework for building efficient and scalable server-side applications on top of TypeScript & JavaScript (ES6, ES7, ES8) heavily inspired by Angular SailsJS - A MVC framework inspired from Ruby on Rails, have a really good structure and newbie friendly HapiJS - Quite same with Express but more exte
