Forest of Doom - 2D C++ game

[RsRevengedAce]

im guessing them cats was middle eastern

[dervish2173]

i dont understand how you programmed this in c++. I can't make any objects or visual things, all i can do is trace some stuff on a black screen. How did you do this?!

[NoobScratcher]

Great Work! :) im working QT to build up a engine to build 3d/2d games on very harsh and meaningless :D

[DrunkenWaffle]

What library did you use?

[tibiaowned1]

anyone how long can it take to make a game like this if u only have experience with c++ for 1 year

[DrunkenWaffle]

@tibiaowned1 Depends on how dedicated you are. That's too much of an open-ended question to answer correctly.

[tibiaowned1]

@DrunkenWaffle oh ;p

[tibiaowned1]

@DrunkenWaffle

[tibiaowned1]

was it hard to make this game? please tell :d

[TheVideoVector]

Very Very nice! Great work.

[grasnes]

I wish to be a game maker, so I can make own games, ill like to make a game pretty like this, but it will be a nightmare, about a forest a reaaly cool (zelda) gaem :D:D:D

[TheVideoVector]

@grasnes It really bugs me when people say things like this. If you'd like to be a "Game maker" ... -.- .. Developer... then take action now. Begin with simplerrr languages such as IDK as3 or something. ugh.

[destrojan]

4chan style

[ktuvim]

Cool game! The idea of cats is funny. Did you make this using "allegro" library?

[DAVZONED]

haha cool, keeps getin harder

[SneakySteeve]

OMG i'm so happy you made your game available for download! :D

I love your game!

[YouGotSat]

Hey i really like the look of SFML, im planning on trying to create a small RPG game and make some form of PvP out of it using winsock, but im struggling to setup SFML with any compiler, how did you set it up? and what compiler did you use?

[juncraul]

And how ghosts do when attack you?

[Dimbark]

liar, this is RPGMaker

[InfowarVictim]

@Dimbark

dummy, no it's not

[DrunkenWaffle]

@Dimbark It uses RPG Maker sounds and possibly sprites. That doesn't mean it was made with RPG Maker.

[8Kazuja8]

love thre kitty:

"meaow... BOOOM"

[Programmur]

i know its really old, but could you make a tutorial?

[AionAustria]

feed those god damn kitties else they're gonna explode!!!

[NotEmoBut]

its so gay

[myromance123]

Son of a...! It sPLODED!! Best game of the year in my book this year!

Lets see EA beat your kitties

[MadRainProductions]

The star teleport noise is from RPG maker XP/VX.

[carlsberg24]

What's with the exploding kitties? hehe

[Beamswordu]

what was the development time?

[enrichedd]

cool dude

[PhioenixPinion]

All I see is repeating levels with more and more terriost kitties.....

[Gerrieboy11]

@PhioenixPinion

thats the point of this game... getting more al-qaida followers,...

[Ashocka1]

how do you have include sound?

I use Visual Studio 2010 express and by me he doesnt will play sound or include sound :(

Help me pls

[CulturalMyths]

looks quite cool game

[Millla75]

can u schow the code in the vid???

[BinaryPhoenix]

Very nice. Source:)?

[ubuntuman95]

i am trying to make a game like this but cant find any tutorials did you use a maker or did you code it yourself and did you use a tutorial if yes which one . thank you

[Ikizami456]

@ubuntuman95 I'm going to save you a lot of time and effort looking for a "tutorial". One, none exist. Two, you need to learn C++ pretty well before attempting something like this, even if the concept is simple, the actual coding may be a lot harder then intended. Three, learn C++ even more, and let your imagination loose, and you can do anything.

[Mrlendo1]

KITTY BOMBS

[Boskinoskin]

The kittens are suicidal!!

[sniperownsuhard]

hooly fuck, did that cat just explode!??!? 0_o

[waypastthat]

The cats are just the best thing ever.

[Danny77uk]

Haha nice I LOVE the sound fx and exploding kitties!

I LOVE hobbyist programs!

[dragonhaart]

hahahahaha "MEOW" ::KABOOM::

[jes9044]

ummm whats with the cats? LMAO

[ExIITV]

@DaNorthernLight i lolled at your posts

[puchi2100]

miiiiaauuuu

[p12oph3cy]

haha, this game is pretty cool. looks like it gets pretty dificult too.

[skyliner390]

could you post the source code, Im having trouble making console games, you know with sticks and ascII characters, I think your code would be nothing short of enlightening.

[YouKondziu]

lol exploding kitties :D

[yuha25]

I love those kittens

meow

BOOM!

XD

[Soap360]

Pretty good

[nickrohn93]

The Japanese are training kamikaze kittens?! So help us god...

[Rpahut1]

Where's the forest?

Looks more like Kittens of doom )

[smileygeckos]

scary cats. Great game! : )

[go2none]

Ha, kittens go KaBoom!

[roudnie]

Oh no!!! Suicide Bombing kitties!!!!! D:|

[TheWaynelds]

its just the same levels over and over again. exploding cats?

[MasterJake777]

holy!!! kamakaze kitty cats

[wowlaxis]

MIAO! awesome!

[KuhWristChin]

Great game!

Disturbing minds created the exploding cats

haha

[FredTheBiologist]

AHHHH, DONT STEP ON THE CATS!! XD

[StonedReality]

Exploding cats!! Oh noes!

[jas16899]

This is the greatest game EVER!!

[HordeAreMyFatCousins]

the hardest part is placement in this game. How do you place things on ur map so well? do you have any tuts?

also, how do you make the map bigger and make the map follow ur character

[Snapjaw4]

the map is not following the character... if this is OpenGL then the character stays in the center all the time. The map runs away from the character creating the illusion that the "camera" (that do not exists in OpenGL) is following your character

[baseball4355]

usually in the script you pick the window size like 18x18 and then 0 , 0 would be the coordinates for the top right corner i think. or maybe the left. i forget :P

[aroymart]

@baseball4355  top left

[natham10]

Please pass the code! Im learning C++, and i need this!

[humislair]

exploding cats!! miouwwuoooo BOOOM lol olool

[aroymart]

this is cool, i have just started using darkGDK for programming but i think im going to try and use something else p.s. im only 12 XD

[happybdayskull]

hey me and some friends just got into programing to well we want to were still getting all the materials and suff but its cool your only 12 im 13 turning 14 in like 5 more months

[aroymart]

i turned 13 last Thursday, but i learned a hell of a lot of programming since i turned 12

[happybdayskull]

kewl mabye you can help me in some areas but we are gonna start on our stuff after christmas because by then well have all our plans and things set up to start

[aroymart]

i probably couldnt, i learned a bit more php/javascript/css then c++ game making

[Draculix]

It's cool that you're starting programming from such an early age, but I'd be careful about jumping straight into game programming. Make sure you know the following first: Boolean statements (IF/ELSE) Loops Objects and classes Methods and functions Then get a basic idea about the following: Switch and Case statements Pointers Exception handling Garbage collection When you think you're ready, download the allegro library (Google its tutorials) and make a 2d game like Tetris. Best of luck!

[aroymart]

lol i learned quite a bit of the above, i finally learned how to install openGL and am having a lot of fun with that, but homework stops me from learning much more

[Draculix]

openGL? That's... impressive. Bordering on scary.

How long have you been learning for?

[aroymart]

@Draculix

openGL: about a month

c++: a year (i was 12 when i started :D)

[MrJezez]

where do I code with c++? where on note pad or on a program , can I code to get backgrounds and stuff?

[aroymart]

download microsoft visual c++

[XxbambambxX]

@aroymart

does it also exist 4 win XP??

[MrJezez]

hey which programs did you used to create this game I know the c++ , but which programs?

[Schoening91]

Mr Jezez... u dont use programms for it like gamemaker and that shit..u programm it yourself in c++ the whole editor or and libary

[21jumppp]

common, that ghosts are from super mario, everybody can see ^^ but whatever, looks nice, good work!

[autonomous2010]

did you record the ghosts voice? LOL

Why do the cats keep exploding?????

Only two days??? Did you use a previously game engine???

I know a lot about java and I heard the java syntax was very similar to C++ so I wondered if started programming in C++ if it would be easier for me since I know a lot about java.

[Kioti16]

Java is somewhat similar to C++, but I like C++ better because it is more challenging, I am not kidding C++ is hard!

[autonomous2010]

Yes it may be harder but ONLY because you can do a LOT more with it.

I actually find C++ to be easier then Java because C++ has very little code restrictions as Java has a lot.

I have been learning C++ for 2 days now and I already know the basics and working with a terminal.

I just need to learn GUI programming now.

[Kioti16]

Wow! you are a fast learner.

I have been doing c++ for about three years now, and I have not done any Graphical User Interfaces yet. But I do know quite a bit of stuff you can do in the terminal. I just wrote my first encryption program with user password controls.

Good luck,

-Kioti16

[adlofs]

meow boom

[TheEventMaker]

not much forest of doom =D

more Forest of Fucking Awsome Game

5/5

[crazymanny00]

nice stuff

[NNYdust]

so cuuute!!! awesome!! thumbs up!!

[ravenshines]

lol suicide bomber kittens!

[Illsian]

Dude, epic game. Hard to believe it was made in C++!

[NOTIvids]

Why is it hard to believe? C++ is the most powerful language...

[kopilatis12321]

lol how do u think real games are made?

[Illsian]

Lol, it's a joke, guys. XD

[cyberplumber06]

yeah and? and only a c++ programmer would know about the "hello world" thing...

but i expiramented with e\ / ery tutorial that i learned from im gonna start on my own 2d game soon

[sodafountan]

no im just saying.... Its really pretty good though, oh and btw not just c++ programmers know hello world its all programmers i use c# and c++ and have come across tutorials that taught hello world for both languages

[autonomous2010]

I STRONGLY disagree.

In EVERY programming language you start with the simple "Hello World" printed to the screen or the terminal.

Its like the tradition of programming.

[Kioti16]

I hate hello world that is what I had to do learning Java Script, Perl, And Python.

But C++ I found a book that did not do "Hello World" And that made me very happy!

[autonomous2010]

Its just the first program you make in a programming book so it shouldn't be that big of a deal.

[Kioti16]

But it is so repetitive, it's nice to have a change sometimes.

[aroymart]

same, lol

[6336248]

Explosive kittens FTW!

[jake0010110]

reminds me of mario

[randomnum2]

can u give me a download link? I love it!!

[bludklok]

Hahaha... nothing is better then exploding C++ kittens.

[lakristianla]

And now i feel pathedic XD, sorry to my last comment i didn't read all comment and info, but i can see that it is writen in c++ i did not think of RPG maker was also included, sorry sorry sorry :).

[lakristianla]

lbly, you idiot 'sorry not meant personally', this ain't rpg maker? i can see easy it's c++ i had RPG maker myself long time ago, and it's nothing like this ;). ''gå hjem og vug kælling'' nice game really! how long time did you work with C++ to make this?

[snasebrase]

cool.

[eVashioNN]

NOT BAD

^^Ave You

[nolfolk]

"Meaw *BOOOM* "

LMAO

[dandymcgee]

rofl, that was great! awesome job. :P

[TheJaggon]

exploding cats? lol

[kajzec]

nice nice :D

[lee155912000]

Lol

watch out for the exploding cats!!!!!!

[Wi1dCatMan]

yea, LOL, that's hilarous ecspecially at the end when theres like 20 per level haha!

[jackle6100]

it looks boring. there's no challenges

[Ibly31]

So you know how hard C++ is? You probably use RPG maker and think ur so cool, right? Something that takes 3 minutes in RPG maker actually takes weeks in C++

[jackle6100]

dude WHAT THE FUCK is wrong with you i just asked a simple question i "commented" on his game that's what he wants us to do i didn't know people attack for doing something your supposed to do and i don't make games i play them next time ask before you state..

[XenTheKiller]

You owned him XD

[samsonites101]

So you know how hard assembly is? You probably use c++ and think ur so cool, right? Something that takes 3 minutes in c++ actually takes weeks in assembly.

[samsonites101]

sorry, that was supposed to be a reply to the guy below.

[Ibly31]

Haha! I have actually programmed in assembly, for a calculator. Z80 assembly. And also, C and C++ are just a step up from assembly, so something that takes 3 minutes in C++ would probably take about 25 minutes in assembly, for me.

[soccergod561234]

LMAO great game what did you make this with i mean, what library?

[icoo44]

GDI :)

[soccergod561234]

whats GDI? lol, I watch all your videos and so far youve used DBA (what ever that is) lol dark basic and GDI (what ever that is) lol id liek to know because your make some AWESOME games and id really like to know what you use so i can start looking into it

[tcsilver]

standard windows graphics device interface(GDI)

[tonydanza832]

omg did that kitty just xplode XD

[GyroVorbis]

Rofl, that's pretty awesome!

[trufun202]

lol, nice. I have no idea what the objective of the game is, but every time a cat exploded I laughed my ass off. :P
