  1. This highly depends on the content its self. You will have to contact the author of every single thing you want to use in a commercial project to find out what their terms and conditions are for using it in a commercial project. Its a little bit of a pain in the but but hey its a commercial project so hard pain in the but work has to be done.
  2. Looks really great. I will definitely be giving this a try once it comes out.
  3. I remember that engine from years ago. I haven't really tried it so hopefully they have a trial.
  4. VERY NICE! Way way better than just adding scripting support. This keeps looking better and better every time i look at it. Sad when the unity exporter costs more than the engine its self lol.
  5. Not sure i get what you mean. So remove categories and just make it show recent posts?

  7. Could I make a few sound effect requests? >A few sounds of mining sounds of a pickaxe hitting rocks/ore. >A few sounds of a hammer hitting an anvil. >A few sounds of a furnace smelting ores. >A few sounds of an axe chopping a tree.
  8. Every engine(with the exception of unity) we support has a support board where you can post for support. Usually when games are under development its a good idea to not make a game page or a topic till you have lots of info about it or are almost ready for people to play it. When you are ready for it you can make a game page here. http://www.gdunlimited.net/games Welcome to the site. If you need anything feel free to ask more :thumbsup:
  9. i been mostly working and hanging out with everyone on the GDU discord while slowly making a smartass bot who is an actual smartass but isnt actually smart xd. I also got addicted to wurm unlimited.
  10. this would be great for a visual novel """game"""
  11. Welcome to GDU, BOX! You should tell us a little about you.
  12. GDU Discord bot is in the works :D

  13. I also added an RPG bot and room for it so you can play an RPG game as well as roll dice for fun like our very old chat system we had a very long time ago lol.
  14. We now haz a discord channel because Kitsuki requested it so you can thank her for it lol. https://discord.gg/p54jQEN Discord is a completely free chat program/app. You can chat via voice or text. Right now we have 2 channels. >General - Talk about anything you want but try to keep it PG13. >NSFW-Mature - Anything is allowed here since its an 18+ channel. I will add more as needed but for now that should do. Later on i can add channels for game dev talk and stuff if a group wants to work together on something. Hope to see you on there :thumbsup:.

  18. Keep up the awesome work. I was looking through your music and you have lots of neat space music for my derpy space game. I will be sure to add a link to your site on my title screen for everyone to enjoy.

      Trippy. Think you can develop a way to apply this to real life? Can I throw a bunch of fancy lines in the air and then save my moment in time before an exam?

  20. It highly depends on the company and ofc what assets you use. If you are making a pokemon fan game it will get shutdown fast even if you completely make your own pikachu by drawing it yourself and not ripping it from something. That is because the company owns pikachu and the poekmon name. Companies tend to not want their name ruined by popular fan games(but with the age of the internet thats highly unlikely now). Someone could download the fan made game not knowing it was fan made and it could be complete crap. They will no longer buy stuff from that company because they now think the company is crap. It also depends on the community its self and the hype behind the fan game. If the community you are in is a small one and your game isn't generating that much hype chances are slim that you will be sent that C&D. But as soon as you get on that radar where everyone is talking about it chances are high you will get that C&D. A good example of a game that got taken down is Pokemon Uranium and the fan made Chrono Trigger Crimson Echoes(was almost complete but people released info on it way to early). Pokemon Uranium is also a good example of releasing it in masses so it cannot be fully shut down. You can still download Pokemon Uranium because fans of that fan game are keeping it alive and keep uploading it no matter how many times it gets removed.
  21. Ok so when making a fan game there's huge to little risks involved. I will explain what can happen and how to avoid these things from happening. What Could Happen? When you release a fan game you could have a few things happen. Nothing: Nothing could happen to you if the company doesn't care. C&D(cease and desist): You could get a nasty letter or email telling you to stop or legal action will be taken if you continue. Legal Action: Usually only happens after a C&D but can happen without a C&D if it is to late for the C&D. Getting Hired: Very unlikely to happen so don't make a fan game with the hope to get hired. Common Error One of the most common errors people make when making a fan game is telling everyone they are making a fan game or even showing off the game before its released. Doing this gives the game company time to find out that you are making a fan game so they can send you that lovely C&D. Doing this is just like going out and telling everyone you are selling illegal drugs soon and will sell them once they get done growing(although you are most likely not selling a fan game but you get the point lol)... How To Avoid Getting Stopped The best possible thing you can do to avoid getting stopped while making a fan game is to keep your mouth zipped until release day. I know its hard to do but trust me its for the best to avoid that lovely C&D. But what if you do keep your mouth shut and just release the game will you get a C&D? Well its highly possible to get a C&D but is also possible they can just take legal action. Doesn't sound like fun to get all that way to be shut down right? So the chances are high to get shutdown and or legal action so how can i prevent that from happening? Well even if you used a different username its still possible to get caught because of your IP address. So if you want to prevent yourself from getting caught use a program like tor or a proxy or even a VPN to hide your IP. That way if the company wants to find out who you are they wont get your IP preventing them from getting your ISP info and asking them to send you a legal action or C&D letter. Tip: When using another/accounts NEVER EVER LOGIN OR CREATE THAT ACCOUNT WITHOUT USING TOR/PROXY/VPN!!!!. If you wish to remain anonymous keeping your IP out of the logs of those accounts is key so they will never figure out who you are there for can never take legal action against you and you can continue uploading and releasing copies of the game as much as you want. I dont support the use of copyrighted material and this is just guide to help people understand the risks involved in making a fan game. Im just pointing out common sense that people should already know about releasing a fan game. Hopefully this helped you out in some way and feel free to add to the discussion. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to ask.
  22. Sounds like a good idea if its optional. I personally like just the first and last name.
