Making an ARCADE Game | Devlog #1

[@EmInSpace]

this looks really good, making a game with some smaller arcade games in it is really smart and a good way to get back into gamedev, really well done so far!

[@Deynum]

Hopefully it'll allow me to do a relatively big project without getting overwhelmed by all the work I need to do

[@emperorstorm3266]

@@Deynum yup, and you can add more as you go, no need to worry since it is all a bunch of small projects!

[@Handidev]

Back in the 1980's we go!

[@ludicrouS_406]

SUGGESTION: when you select an arcade, you zoom in on it and see a quick description of the game on the side

[@Deynum]

Not only is that a great idea, I've actually tried to do that (it just didn't make it into the video). It was a pain tho, but I am sure that later in the project I will attempt it again, and hopefully succeed.

[@ludicrouS_406]

@@Deynum very nice. you could just use the lerp function and some offseting

[@a_random_roy2667]

I really like that thumbnail! Great job!

[@Deynum]

thanks, I think the thumbnail might be the best part of the entire video lol, I spend about a full day working on it (I tried a lot of different designs)

[@emperorstorm3266]

This is seriously a great idea.

[@HoodedOlive]

He’s back! Except he travelled to the 80s

[@Asy18]

It would be really cool if this game had more classic arcade games but all with a unique twist that completely changes them!

[@barj]

Cool idea.

[@tudypie]

Really nice game :) I am excited to see how the game is going to be in the future. Good luck on this project :)

[@Makeroni100]

Nice to see you back, and I really like the 1bit style art!

[@DevNoob]

Incredible idea! Super cool with the glare animation. It looks so fresh!

[@jakegraham7692]

this is a fantastic structure for a develog.

[@Deynum]

thank you, would you mind elaborating, because I am not 100% what you mean, and I want to make sure I can make sure I keep doing it

[@jakegraham7692]

@@Deynum it just feels like a good project made up of smaller projects so you can make several smaller pieces and they naturally make good videos and it's a good way to learn quickly while assembling a fun larger project.

[@Thomas-qf1ty]

I really liked this dev log. It was very inspirational for me since I'm trying to do the same thing. I hope to see more videos about the next arcade u add to the collection.

[@itznidal9501]

I have an idea for a game: There is a player on the top, and he needs to get down. This will be in a farm area, and if it hits a animal it dies. Its a top down game, so it doesnt just fall of the map. There could be different kinds of animals with different abilities and different scales.

[@REDbird5]

cool devlog hope you keep it going and SUGGESTION: make use a different palette with each game like old palettes they used in arcades!

[@RGBA]

OMG I LOVE THIS IDEA make minecraft 2d to the arcade

[@SoftDevAB]

This idea is really good, but please don't stop working on this!!

[@Deynum]

I won't (or at least I really really really hope I won't)

[@SoftDevAB]

@@Deynum ok i trust you

[@aw1lt]

You give me nexpo vibes Great vid deynum!

[@Skeffles]

Love the retro style of alien attack and the cabinets themselves look amazing! This is a great idea for a game as you can just keep adding more games if you want. Perhaps you could add tron style game.

[@SamiTheAnxiousBean]

Omg this is amazing cant wait to see the other arcade games you add into it, this seems like a project you can just continue even when you "finish" it just out of boredom or when you get an idea for another game Yes the one here is heavely based off of a existing one but im also looking forward for a fully unique one one day aswell Also i feel like this would be fun to make multiplayer (by that i mean multiplayer leaderboards) half of the fun of arcade games was beating the score of players who played before you As for arcade game suggestions, maybe something like "Impossible Mission" (ik it's a Atari 7800 game and not an arcade game but just for the concept itself)

[@danielinverso5869]

A virtual arcade is such a cool idea! and I already love the first game you made especially the one bit art style. One thing that doesn't make sense to me though, is why the enemies' bombs blink. Personally, I think it is very distracting.

[@Deynum]

thanks for liking the idea, and when it comes to the enemy bombs, the reason I made them blink is so 1. they are harder to see, and 2. to make them a bit more interesting (visually).

[@GdevStudios]

pog vid

[@SidFish]

The arcade machines looks great, interested to see where you take this devlog series :)

[@skenda]

What a pogger video!

[@nixda0075]

Finally a new video

[@n8dev]

yessssssss awesome stuff!

[@Jaceuhh]

Awesome! I feel like this game would be really cool!

[@brianoconnor9818]

Great video, and great idea!

[@Tropadopaumedio]

Arcade idea: There are 2 persons fighting each other. Sudenly apears on the screen a place that You have to click to atack or to deffend. the ammount of places you have to click will increase each level

[@BlueOctopusDev]

Next step: Ghost escape (pac-m*n) Hardcore: Catestein 3D (Wolfest*in 3D)

[@SlimeyyGhost]

Why did you censor pac man?

[@BlueOctopusDev]

@@SlimeyyGhost I dont know a lot of censor and copyright so... i dunno

[@Combes_]

Sued Mode:Plumber runner (ma**o

[@reduxdev]

nice

[@totallyjustmagic]

I missed your content and you bro

[@rosse119]

Makes me want to do something similar now, great video.

[@Chadderbox]

Wow! This is awesome. I may or may not take some inspiration from this for a future project.

[@AndrewDavidJ]

Oh sweet! This is gonna be fun! :)

[@tauheedgamedev2388]

Really cool idea to make a game of several smaller games, make flappy bird for the arcade but in 1bit style

[@emperorstorm3266]

I have an idea A character is running away from somewhere, there are people running after you with new people popping occasionally, once every 5 seconds they move closer, to remove them you have to aim and shoot however you can only aim with keyboard arrows, you can also move left and right by using a abd d, when you shoot the rest of the people automatically move up.

[@ComfieDev]

YEEE DEYNUUM

[@Miguel-jj3vf]

Yessir new video!!

[@CasperNotGhost]

Deeeeeevloooooooog!!! :) I don't have any too creative ideas for games, I mean pong obviously (name it bonk, no one will say that you don't have original name)

[@BasketballBien]

Underrated

[@dom_rocks7923]

Ooh. Looks sweet!

[@macelivity4878]

Suggestion: Make the selection screen so that you're a person that can go to the machines instead of just selecting the game

[@Usenowgamer]

Great video! I wonder how long it will take to finish this game

[@Deynum]

I honestly have no idea

[@eloqi]

Good luck on this game, I can't wait to see the one all about my beautiful face : )

[@martinvasilev6099]

This is going to be amazing. Can you make a game like Mortal Kombat?

[@passionfyrreproductions8467]

This is actually a really good idea This Could Make A Good Mobile Game Rec. You Add A Mini Prize Booth Where You Can Change The Background Or Stuff Like That For Coins Just Don't Get Scope Creeped Again lol

[@TylerGreen]

Nice looking, definitely reminds me of a retro arcade game. Will your next arcade game be called ET Ambush lol?

[@airlyanimations6550]

Yes

[@MiloTheDuck-s7j]

I hope you enjoy making this game! At the end that's all about, am i right?

[@itsME-dc4vm]

niceeeee ;D

[@TravelDost]

If I want to develop Arcade games, then which board would I use for that? Because I want to run games without any OS.

[@ryderstudios]

You managed to get out a video🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@skenda]

Add a racing game too!

[@ryderstudios]

Ideas: Snake Pong / Break Out Pac Man

[@Combes_]

Mario Bros-WAIT **Dies from sueing**

[@watercat1248]

To be honest I was thinking to do something similar but with multiple different machine that each machine has different game but because im working on different projects i don't really have the time that

[@paulytheking7365]

If you would like an original score for the game, I could make it.

[@Seniorjack]

nice! :)

[@boniamamangpang8842]

Make a game that your a mouse and you have to get to a hole but there are cats in your way so it’s like frogger it’s called mouse run hope you do this 😊
