Hi everyone, for the last 5 years I've been coding under different names to help progress in learning and getting better with what I do. I've always wanted to make a game but I wanted to wait for something I feel motivated about, since a young kid I have adored PSO and given that PSO2 is not out in the UK yet I wanted to try my hand at my own version.
Now I know a lot of people are wary about indie games especially those created in little time, but I do plan to follow through with this game even if I end up making the SDK public for others to use or learn from.
------------
I'm trying to recreate that Phantasy Star experience without completely copying it, I've seen most of the videos on Youtube of PSO Clones made on Unity and I haven't seen a bit of Gameplay just buttons editing float variables.
I've been working on this for a week and posting updates to twitter constantly, but this is what I have so far, keep in mind that the GUI will change once more gameplay is added to somewhat resemble PSO but at the moment I'm focusing more on the game code and I suck at artwork:
- Account Sign-in
- Account Synchronization
- Lobby and Rooms
- Working Multiplayer
- Ability to share stats on network
- Synchronized animations and stats
To start with I wanted to build a base, get the major things like accounts, basic animations and things to a base level so I can progress to a playable state and be able to come back and edit.
Upon starting you're requested to login in the account section, then from here on out you can hit play, you'll join a lobby that's hosted by PUN+ (Cloud Server) and be bought to a room list, now I did want to do what PSO BB did where you'd go to a desk etc but right now I'd rather focus on other things so rooms are shown as buttons with the room name and player count.
The base gameplay isn't there just yet, but I'm working on that in the next few days, adding a base enemy to test with, setting up working doors, vendors and things. I'm not here looking for followers or any fame, just wanted to share my work with people who share the same love for a game.
