Evil Peanut Games- Formulation of Epic Win
Archive: 65 posts
| Some of you may know that I tend to bother people about making games, specifically in the RPG format... most people tend to ignore me or judge it as some sort of joke... so yeah. At any rate... I want to make something this summer, but the thing is I want some people to do it with. So... is anyone remotely interested in making anything with me? ... yep, we can discuss more if I get some people who want to do this too. D: | 2010-06-18 23:04:00 Author: RockSauron  Posts: 10882 |
| I will. No one ever wants to make games with me, so I end up just playing community levels. | 2010-06-19 07:50:00 Author: mutant_red_peas  Posts: 516 |
| it depends what type of game really, but mostly, i lack any understanding of how to do it :S but if anyone knows how... maybe point me in the right direction XD and i could help next time around... if there is one  | 2010-06-19 08:51:00 Author: samalot  Posts: 591 |
| Dude...LBPC the game hasn't even been finished and you want to make a game? I'd reccomend you focus on one thing at a time m8. | 2010-06-19 09:14:00 Author: Silverleon  Posts: 6707 |
| Dude...LBPC the game hasn't even been finished and you want to make a game? I'd reccomend you focus on one thing at a time m8. Sigh... i'm not even doing anything there! What, should I just wait around for them to finish before I decide to do anything with my legions of free time? Seriously, just... gah, just... >_< Anyway... I was thinking something on computer, so, um, yeah. I unno. D: >_< | 2010-06-19 14:44:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| I'd be more than willing, though depending on the exact details, I might not be of any help. | 2010-06-19 16:59:00 Author: Laina  Posts: 99 |
| I can help with the story & possibly join you in the editor a couple of times. | 2010-06-19 17:33:00 Author: lifeiscrapislife  Posts: 396 |
| You already know Im gonna help *secretly plots assassinating Rock and taking over his place as the leader of this project* | 2010-06-19 17:42:00 Author: Testudini  Posts: 3262 |
| Yeah, I don't really need story guys... I need other... things... yeah So, I was thinking of using GameMaker, or something, unless someone has a better idea on what to use? Also, what genre should it be? D: | 2010-06-19 17:42:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| What "other things"? | 2010-06-19 17:47:00 Author: lifeiscrapislife Posts: 396 |
| Specifically spriters, so if you can sprite or are good at art and want to sprite that's good. Or if you want to actually work on the programming or designing, that'd be good too. | 2010-06-19 17:49:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| I'm not an artist or programmer but I could be a level designer(assuming that would involve neither of the other 2). | 2010-06-19 17:57:00 Author: lifeiscrapislife Posts: 396 |
| i used to mess around in game maker a long time ago. i made some pretty crappy games, got bored and then abandoned it. i also learned how to make a "hello world" program in C++ once, then got bored and abandoned it. | 2010-06-19 18:23:00 Author: kiwin  Posts: 218 |
| I can give it a go i guess... I have summer with nothing to do... Although if you don't want me to, that's fine too... I have no idea how to do anything you want right now, but i'm decent at art and arty crap, so i might be of some use at some point? | 2010-06-19 21:03:00 Author: Unknown User  |
| Perhaps! I unno. Can you sprite? Or draw and can learn how to sprite? Maybe then. Unless you want to do other things of course. At any rate, we'll need to have a program to use... so what should we use? D: | 2010-06-19 21:05:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| give me the resources and i would be more than happy to learn how to'sprite' what ever that may be :S! | 2010-06-19 21:15:00 Author: samalot Posts: 591 |
| Spriting would basically just be making the graphics a'la old games before pixels, so you could do it in the software itself or in visual editing software... but first we must figure out what we're doing! Anyone have any suggestions? D: | 2010-06-19 21:19:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| Am I in? Also, what genre should it be? D: I think it should be a shooting game or open world game. | 2010-06-19 22:12:00 Author: lifeiscrapislife Posts: 396 |
| I guess you're in. But we'd have to start small. If we do an open world game, it'd have to be 2D since we can't do 3D that easily. So yeah... Anyone wanna look a few programs up/ Just google game makers, and, yep. :kz: | 2010-06-19 22:13:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| I guess you're in. You talked me into it, thats alright you can have me. | 2010-06-19 22:21:00 Author: lifeiscrapislife Posts: 396 |
| Perhaps! I unno. Can you sprite? Or draw and can learn how to sprite? Maybe then. Unless you want to do other things of course. At any rate, we'll need to have a program to use... so what should we use? D: I have no idea. but i wanna learn something new anyway, so i'll give it a go... And i can draw quite well, depending on what is needed, and assume i can therefore learn how to sprite... | 2010-06-20 00:43:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Well that's great! We all want to but no one knows what! D: Ok, so... We could all work on gamemaker: http://www.yoyogames.com/gamemaker/ And make simple games. Or eventually a platformer. Or I unno. What genre is someone interested in/ SHOOT! | 2010-06-20 00:48:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| Hmm, i may have to do something to make it run in OS X >_> Unless there is a mac version i have missed... | 2010-06-20 01:06:00 Author: Unknown User |
| What genre is someone interested in/ SHOOT! I would like to do an RPG. | 2010-06-20 01:40:00 Author: lifeiscrapislife Posts: 396 |
| I would too, but if it was an RPG it'd be very difficult. We may need to use an RPG maker. And I don't want to steal it so we can't use RPG Maker... We could use http://hamsterrepublic.com/ohrrpgce/index.php/Main_Page.html or ... eh, we could use that but it may be tough, but yes. I unno. Who's interested? there ARE more RPG things out there, just google rpg makers or such. | 2010-06-20 01:43:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| i'd hate to be a pessimist but as someone who has used game maker i can inform that making a platformer is quite hard. maze game are the easiest and top down shooters arent that hard either. there are some quite good game maker tutorials here if anyone's interested: http://www.yoyogames.com/make/tutorials if anyone is interested in making a adventure game i can recommend AGS: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/ its fairly simple and the results can be stunning. | 2010-06-20 11:34:00 Author: kiwin Posts: 218 |
| I'd love to help but I have plans for 2 games and I'm quite busy but if you want i could make time Wait...are you talking about LBP2 cuz i have no idea if your talking about a REAL game | 2010-06-20 11:46:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Could have sworn I told clay to post here... Anyway... We have decided t use this: http://hamsterrepublic.com/ohrrpgce/ ... yes... <_> ... /cough I have a story idea that Clay thinks is "the most epic thing evah", so, yes. If YOU want to help, then download msn messenger, and send an invite to me- rocksauron@gmail.com Yesh. :kz: | 2010-06-20 13:10:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| This sounds interesting. I'm not sure if I would actually be of much help and you seem to have quite a number of volunteers now anyway. If you need an extra artist or something I'll see I can help. Sprites are just images saved as normal image files right? nothing special to them. | 2010-06-20 13:24:00 Author: SR20DETDOG  Posts: 2431 |
| I...I..I thought you were joking when you said "Let's make RPG" on MSN. Sorry master Rock . I don't know If I want to make an RPG, so I'll just keep my mouth shut before this post is going to be an crazy story about me not keeping my mouth shut.. ok I'll shut up now. | 2010-06-20 13:25:00 Author: Alec  Posts: 3871 |
| I would love to help, but I have no skills in game programming and etc. Though if anyone knows how to learn it I am all up for that. I have recently tried to learn C++, but right now I don't know if it is going anywhere. Most I can do is working with story elements or gameplay ideas, something like that. I would always like to give feedback. | 2010-06-20 13:33:00 Author: moonwire  Posts: 1627 |
| Well it's ok if you have no skills, most of us so far have no skills. We aren't even coding, more like using some program, so you'd just need to learn the program itself. So yeah, if you want to help, don't worry about no experience- none of us have it either D: | 2010-06-20 13:37:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| As soon as i find a way to unlock Windows on my mac again, i'll download it... I ahve a partition running Windows, i just don't have the authentication key >_> | 2010-06-20 14:11:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Just so everyone's aware, we is now making an RPG! So yeah, forget gamemaker. Yes. :kz: | 2010-06-20 14:12:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| Can i help? Just downloaded it and opened it and my jaw hit the floor! So complicated!! | 2010-06-20 14:45:00 Author: Jovuto  Posts: 2345 |
me too, im going to have a look round the wiki on the official website, but if anyone finds and usefull tutorials. Please plost them  | 2010-06-20 14:49:00 Author: samalot Posts: 591 |
| Sure, you can help if you want I spose. D: just download msn and send me a friend request. :kz: We can figure out what to do soon enough. Though we may want to make a simple RPG before we do my crazy idea... D: | 2010-06-20 14:54:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| I have a story idea that Clay thinks is "the most epic thing evah" What story idea do you have? Tell me, I won't make any suggestions if you don't want me too. | 2010-06-20 16:21:00 Author: lifeiscrapislife Posts: 396 |
| If you want to know my story, then send me a friend request on msn, I'll tell you... THERE | 2010-06-20 16:53:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| You've probably seen my "foof engine" thread... It's currently going through a major revision but the engine will be extremely capable. I don't know if that helps you, but within a few weeks I should have a build of the engine you can test to make your own games with... but of course it's 3D oriented... It has a structure similar to Quake, Unreal, Source etc. engines so it's very trivial to just drop in new game info | 2010-06-20 19:42:00 Author: Foofles  Posts: 2278 |
I would love it if we made a shooting game with your engine  . | 2010-06-20 21:01:00 Author: lifeiscrapislife Posts: 396 |
| Alrighty! We are not... EVIL PEANUT GAMES ... /cough cough Anyway, we'll start with a simple RPG, THEN we'll go into my deeper one... if anyone else wants in, drop me a line :kz: It'd be nice if you can sprite, too :kz: | 2010-06-20 23:48:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |

| I used to use Game Maker 6 a really long time ago, but I don't want to shell out 20 bucks for the new Pro version. | 2010-06-21 03:07:00 Author: Arkei  Posts: 1432 |
I suggested we name our little group, and while I did that Rock was blabbing on and on about peanuts, so I suggested Evil Peanut | 2010-06-21 03:32:00 Author: Testudini Posts: 3262 |
| I used to use Game Maker 6 a really long time ago, but I don't want to shell out 20 bucks for the new Pro version. Well... we're not using Gamemaker, and the RPG maker we're using is free, so yes. Anyway, we really need spriters. Yes. :kz: | 2010-06-22 01:13:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| ...I could help, probably... I mean, that RPG making thing confuzzles me, but if someone could teach me how it works, I could try... I forgot the last time I tried to help. Maybe add me on MSN, (644Klaww@Live.com) and stuff. I do know a whole lot about Game maker, and I have the pro version, for if this RPG making thingie ever gets too confusing for everyone. We could always make stuff in GM, which I've made simple RPG engines in before, (RPG platformers mostly, but still...) and then at the end send it to me to make it shiny. (Make it in the lite version, and then I add little tweaks with pro.) I could figure out the hamster republic thingamabob, but I'd need assistance. | 2010-06-22 01:26:00 Author: KlawwTheClown  Posts: 1106 |
| ... ^ That's more experience then any of us! You're hired! :kz: WELCOME TO EPIC PEANUT GAMES. We is the most epic peanut game studio EVAH. ... EVAH | 2010-06-22 01:32:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| If you are going to practice first then just use simple stickfigures. I haven't sprited in a long long time. D: | 2010-06-22 02:49:00 Author: moleynator  Posts: 2914 |
| Well, I want some spriters before we do anything because someone needs to do it... sides, they need practicing too. YESH. ... We may need to get better organized.O noez. | 2010-06-22 02:50:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| Sorry I've changed my mind, that hamster rpg maker has a **** map editor. | 2010-06-22 15:56:00 Author: lifeiscrapislife Posts: 396 |
| Well, I want some spriters before we do anything because someone needs to do it... sides, they need practicing too. YESH. ... We may need to get better organized.O noez. Wif' mah past asperiences... Spriting is the hardest part, really. It's best to start with some other stuff, using temporary sprites. Oh, and I forgot to mention, I can almost script for Pokemon hac--st00fs. (I can map too. Also on Super Mario World.) Should I send you an old platform engine I made before? It's an alright example for my temporary sprites, (White blocks with an arrow on 'em) and how I can learn scripting kinda. (It was all scripted.) I have it in a .Exe format, if you wanna see it sometime. | 2010-06-22 18:46:00 Author: KlawwTheClown Posts: 1106 |
| Hm... well, would you think it'd be better if we work on Game Maker? What do you think? D: | 2010-06-22 19:01:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| Hm... well, would you think it'd be better if we work on Game Maker? What do you think? D: I don't know. You shouldn't change what you make it with just for me. | 2010-06-22 19:34:00 Author: lifeiscrapislife Posts: 396 |
| I'm not doing it for you .-. I'm asking Klaww, who has experience, if he thinks it'd be worth while to try to make an rpg there. D: | 2010-06-22 19:36:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| ah . | 2010-06-22 19:39:00 Author: lifeiscrapislife Posts: 396 |
| Hm... well, would you think it'd be better if we work on Game Maker? What do you think? D: Well, it's easier, but probably not as good. I'd say to look at some RPGs on Game Maker, and then some on the hamster thingie, and see what you like more. I dunno how you could find some made with hamster thingummywho, but for GM it's YoyoGames (http://www.yoyogames.com/browse). Keeping in mind that if a bunch of programmers get together on MSN or something, they can try to learn the hamster thingamawhoozit together. You can probably find some hamster thingumawalnut games somewhere.  The one problem with Game Maker, is that I don't know how to make it turn based, but there are some engines on teh interwebz. I'd like to try learning the hamster thingumahippopotamus, though. | 2010-06-22 21:36:00 Author: KlawwTheClown Posts: 1106 |
| ..It doesnt have to be turned based ==. I mean, Kingdom Hearts is an RPG and it isnt turned based, and that turned out AWESOME. The party members could fight along side you, slaying at a beast.. Heck, its worked with other games. I imagine it would work with ours. | 2010-06-23 03:49:00 Author: Testudini Posts: 3262 |
| Hmm i might want to help, you actually seem like your going to go through with his Rock! Im not sure what i could do but i know when its finished you could add it to this site http://www.kongregate.com/ and i believe you would be able to make achievements in it for the site if you wanted to work a little harder to add them Eh so what could i do possibly EDIT: Just realized you can make a lot of money with your game because of the ads that would be displayed by your game in kongregate. So if this does go through and you upload it to there you can make money, but i realize many people are working on the game so it would be hard to split, so why not donate the money made to LBPC! | 2010-06-23 05:56:00 Author: Snrm  Posts: 6419 |
| ZOMGAWSH rocks actually making a game, IM IN!!!!!, ide like to try my hand at GM, i took a class with it last year over the summer | 2010-06-23 06:09:00 Author: Littlebigdude805  Posts: 1924 |
| I like snrm's idea. Maybe we should make characters based off LBPC members (Little Dude The Warrior Monkey, Rocky Knight, Morgana The Magician, etc.) as well? | 2010-06-24 23:39:00 Author: Testudini Posts: 3262 |
| I've got a question, Rock. How many "let's make a video game" threads have you made so far? | 2010-06-25 00:44:00 Author: qrtda235566  Posts: 3664 |
| This is my second one... I usually don't actually ask in a thread. But still, um... SPRITAHS? D: | 2010-06-25 00:47:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| Alrighty, I suppose I haven't made myself clear enough :kz: ... Yeah, I'll still like to do this. Me and UltimateClay have been formulating a basic story, and are gonna try and make a walkthrough of sorts for the game. So yeah, w're still going to try and make this work... NO MATTAH THE COST! ... but I'll also need some help from peoplez, of course. Or we will. So yeah, um... Yes. I'd love anyone who is seriously willing to help, and yes. Right now I know Clay is in, and perhaps Klaww... everyone else I hired pretty much quit, so yeah. Come on, we can do this :kz: ... but yeah, I'd need spriters mostly, and some other stuff... but yes. Just saying... And so let's get started :kz: | 2010-06-28 00:08:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
| Yeh! I've got another version of the logo... Just not finished yet. Fixing up a crown and sceptre. Probably removing the sceptre...? | 2010-06-28 02:39:00 Author: KlawwTheClown Posts: 1106 |
