[QUOTE=Maurice;27280793]So a friend of mine told me he can draw pretty good and he wanted to make some games, so he bought a cheap tablet, got photoshop and I code.
We first decided to make a doodle-jump-thing to get into it or whatever, and:

I mean, the background is kind of okay I guess, but what the hell is wrong with the player?
[img_thumb]http://filesmelt.com/dl/player123.png[/img_thumb]
:geno:
The top version is the image he gave me, no it's not scaled.
He also drew tim from braid:
[img_thumb]http://filesmelt.com/dl/braid.jpg[/img_thumb]
Plus he has weird design ideas. He made me program it so that you can wait on platforms and use space to jump.
What am I gonna do? I can't just tell him it sucks.
I hope he doesn't browse FP and finds this here. He'd be mightily pissed.

I have now spent 20 minutes trying to explain why I need the grass seperately (Because it's only on the ground) and why the background should be vertically tileable (It scrolls). He doesn't get it.
Behold; his interpretation of a tileable sky:

I feel so bad for making fun of him.[/QUOTE]
The best way to critique him is to point out all the problems with the proportions and how distorted the character is. If he gets pissy about it then point out to him that the artwork for Braid took a year to do with lots of iterations. There's just no way you friend could get it right the first time.
I recently acquired an IBM Model M keyboard and it's really nice to program on.

He's no better than average. I think he'd work well in a wierd experimental artsy game... But yeah, not in any normal game.

I have one of these, it's superb. I can program in the dark too (Which I don't do too often)

What he's saying is harsh but true. Notch's development decisions are.. questionable at best.

All right thank you. :)
I knew about structs and this thought popped into my head, but I wasn't entirely sure of the syntax.

Nuff' said.
I don't know C# but apparently that doesn't bother Microsoft Visual C# 2008 Express Edition because it somehow reads my mind and codes for me

Looks like he didn't even use a tablet

For the moment as you can see player's movements and collision are working. It's also able to load a map from a plain text file.
Not very complex but still fun to program.
The stuff of nightmares.

Use that as a tile and show him how bad it looks.
[QUOTE=Maurice;27280793]So a friend of mine told me he can draw pretty good[/QUOTE]
He lied.
Still putting off rewriting my deobfuscating because I am not sure how I want to do some things. Biggest problem is I want to use .cs files and compile them at runtime. But at the same time I would like to be able to use VS and compile them when writing so I don't have to reload them 50 times to work out the spelling mistakes.
[QUOTE=Azur;27286527]He lied.[/QUOTE]
Meh. I didn't pay for that tablet.
Also he managed to make a decently tiling sky.

Tell him to raise the resolution and make it a bigger tile, or to put less detail into the smaller ones.
Yeah that bright part is kind of annoying, eh.

How's this? Tapping a forum or page is going to make it slide in from the right (I promise to start coding soon!).

What? Maybe it does loop but it doesn't tile well at all, and it's still a smudge of hideous colours. If I were you I would just say sorry but no, and stop wasting your time with that guy.

Is Hexxeh still working on it?
I think he's helping compwhizii write the Facepunch API so he can then use it in his app.
What could possibly go wrong...
