#HOW TO CREATE YOUR OWN GAME ON A COMPUTER HOW TO#
In this guide, we will aim to provide a baseline understanding of as many questions as possible, both in terms of how to plan out your video game, what engines you can use, and so forth.
#HOW TO CREATE YOUR OWN GAME ON A COMPUTER CODE#
What game engine should you use? Where is the best place to publish your game? How much programming do you need to learn before you start making your games? Do you even need to know how to code to make a game? How do you design a game? This question comes with a bunch of other questions as well. That still begs the same question though: how do you even get started making games? Instead, many opt for the route of building computer games themselves, since that only costs your own time. Of course, you could hire a small studio to make it for you, but most people don’t have a spare $1,000+ laying around to afford even a few days of programmer and artist labor. You will also need to make a card, or a foldable sheet with the instructions that you typed in the last step.Perhaps this is a sentiment you’ve thought of before as you daydreamed about your video game project that could be amazing if only you could make it reality. To do this, leave a grid filled only with the backside of cards in between each sheet. Your cards need to include a backside too. I would choose these if 4x4 is too small and you can’t use 3x3 for some reason. 3x4: These cards are wider, but are still nice.

My Instructables game needed cards that were double the size of others so that they would fit in the box (4x4 for the small cards and 4x2 for the small ones). The only problem I would have with it is that it would be hard to print cards double the size. The proportion is perfect and the size is as well. These cards are pretty small and have the same proportion as an 8.5x11 sheet. I would only used these for cards that need to be large such as a white board or a key with many words on it, Any larger than this and the box wouldn’t fit in your pocket. Here are some grids on a 8.5x11 sized card stock sheet. This will be determined in the next step. The size of the cards depends on the size of the box. This allows a Photoshop like effect where the object can be removed from their backgrounds. For example, instant alpha allows you to make certain areas of a picture transparent.

For this game, I used Keynote because it includes many helpful features. I would use Publisher, Keynote, PowerPoint, or any other presentation/graphic design programs. You an draw art on paper or digitally create it. Have fun thinking about concepts and come up with a rough idea of the game play. Pit, The Chameleon, and Telestrations are games with that concept. I also thought about a game in which there are no turns and everyone plays simultaneously.

the kind of game that you can’t play with a computer), Balderdash, Taboo, and Code Names are all great examples of this concept. I also thought about having a game where players respond with a unique idea (A.K.A. That is a concept used in Apples To Apples. I thought about the concept of having a “judge” award points to players. When I thought about the game play, I thought about many common card game concepts. In addition, the object of the miners in that game is to build a path to the gold card.) If your game has no theme, you don’t have to worry about the game play relating to the theme (no kidding).

Since Saboteur is about sabotaging the miners, there is a lot of sabotaging the paths that the miners are building. One is the question: does this game play really relate to the theme? (Think about it this way: since pit is about trading, the game play has lots of trading. When figuring out how the game is to be played, there are many factors that need to be considered.
