I MADE A 3D HORROR GAME USING ASSEMBLY

It is trivial, but I always liked MIPS better. Simpler, more elegant. 68k asm has a special place for how easy it is.

Considering how long it took me to learn even the most basic SNES assembly for modding SMW, I concur. I also hereby declare that Steam and Itch should get categories for games developed in asm. When I implemented a basic 3d module for PICO-8, I felt so cool. I now realize I am just a worm.

[@GreatCornDev]

Дуже вдячний за такий неймовірно душевний коментар!

[@noxagonal]

This is a really cool project, I haven't written assembly more than a handful of times, I found it slow and tedious to write so I can imagine this took a while to make. Also the C and C++ compilers beat my assembly every time in benchmarks. 😆 It's very educational however. I also wanted to mention, your presentation is really good too. Keep it up. :)

[@lightspeedlife8299]

i'm sure the algorithm recommended this to me for my recent interest in forth machines and zacktronics puzzles. and i'm glad for that. very cool stuff! i can't wait to play your game! (if it'll run under wine). as you're already working at such a low level, you might find yourself drawn to language implementation, as i was, and forth and lisp/scheme may become great sources of inspiration for you there. relieving the headache of lower-level coding is essentially the motivation for every higher-level language's creation, and taking that process into your own hands grants the opportunity to approach puzzles from a new angle, and design tools that would be impossible or impractical to implement in c and friends. plus, porting anything you write in a language you design will be easier, cause you'll only need to port your compiler! (or vm, if you go that route). all that to say, i'm looking forward to whatever you do next. this is really cool stuff.

[@GreatCornDev]

I actually tested it on a Wine fork for Android, I think it was Winulator. Pretty stable results, though external input was finicky, so I did it with touch controls. MASM32 itself, sadly, barely works on Wine, as far as I've seen. Tried to set up a developing environment on my tablet, but it couldn't compile the .lib files. Though it did kind of work with precompiled ones, it would often result in out of memory exceptions. As for language implementations, I was very into it a couple years ago, though not on instruction level, just making toy high-level vm interpreters. Learning assembly really makes you understand better how languages work under the hood; in that sense, Lazarus was also useful to program in, since it had easy in-depth debugging with disassembly. Thanks for your comment!

[@jlewwis1995]

​@@GreatCornDevI wonder if fasm would work on android through winulator, afaik it's a more simple assembler that doesn't require a separate linker so it might work better do to having less dependencies, obviously the game would have to be rewritten for fasm syntax though probably

[@ColonDee.]

First video of yours I watch and dude I love it. Honestly, I'm kinda tired of "gamedev" content on KZbin but your personality turns this into something completely unique.

[@leodepew5696]

I can’t believe I’m just seeing this now. Very cool. As a man who is stuck in a perpetual loop of “trying to learn assembly, before giving up after a couple of days and moving back to a higher level language,” this video really did tempt me to break out NASM and Vim…

[@leafylotus]

Never back down, never :wq

[@cosmiclattemusic]

UNDERRATED VIDEO. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH KZbin, this is insane high quality.

[@KingKrouch]

I can understand learning assembly for modding games with no source code access, but doing a full 3D game in assembly (which I'm unsure if it's worse than the Rollercoaster Tycoon dev writing the whole game in it) sounds like insanity.

[@GreatCornDev]

In reality it isn't that bad. Working with OpenGL, as I chose it, isn't too different from language to language, including Assembly. It then all pretty much boils down to kernel-specific initialization boilerplate and things just not being as compact in ASM (like FPU operations, pointer arithmetics), compared to other languages

[@CrittingOut]

Using assembly is the real horror

[@r.g.thesecond]

Very engaging video and an interesting game so far! I totally understand your reservations regarding all kinds of files compilers spit out (object, dylib, lib, dll, etc) but an effective way of handling those concepts is actually CMake. It would give you overall a better, automated experience integrating external libraries or your own libraries. (or maybe try Meson which effectively just modern CMake without the old cruft with the same concepts)

[@GreatCornDev]

I tried to figure CMake out when looking into libvorbis, but it was the reason I chose stb_vorbis.c instead 😅 In all seriousness, I managed to compile libvorbis and would probably look more into CMake for my later projects. Though for my own projects that don't really rely on external libraries, a simple .bat file is more than enough. MASM32 also had an old set of tools for building .def and .lib files from .dll and vice versa. Thank you for the comment!

[@iiviigames]

10:03 - Realize you’re looking at roughly 2000 lines of code. - Pause and read the comments above each folded section to see what is being accomplished in that space. - Realize this is a fraction of the code base. - Experience humility.

[@letronix6243]

Very impressive. I actually also want to make a maze game as first project in my game engine and I want to target more platforms than x86 windows assembly as I use RISC-V and Linux. I also write music and want to make a cool indie game in the future.

[@GreatCornDev]

Follow your dreams! Also, cross-platform is the best and true way in most cases, unless you later want to completely rewrite your project in another language / API, so good luck with RISC-V!

I've been really interested in assembly, and especially game dev with assembly, even while knowing it must be very hard, especially since it's very niche in game development. I won't start game dev with it now because I plan to focus on doing things with other languages, like Java, Scratch, C, and maybe more, but I'd like to make games with it, and even make the games be more than just technically impressive and be actual fun and good games. Thanks for making this, I've never seen anybody make such a complex type of game in assembly, and I really like the look too.
