- <p>In this article, we discuss how ideal video game and video game development
- tool look like, in our opinion.</p>
- <p><strong>Questions</strong></p>
- <p>As you know, the <a href="http://opengamestudio.org/pages/about.html">goals of Opensource Game Studio</a> are:</p>
- <ul>
- <li>creation of free video game development tools</li>
- <li>making video games with those tools</li>
- <li>preparing video game development tutorials</li>
- </ul>
- <p>This time we asked ourselves two simple questions:</p>
- <ul>
- <li>What is an ideal video game?</li>
- <li>What is an ideal video game development tool?</li>
- </ul>
- <p>The best answers we could think of are below.</p>
- <p><strong>Answer 1: A video game is ideal if it delivers maximum pleasure possible</strong></p>
- <p>While content is probably the most important aspect to keep a player invested
- into the game, the technical side is the transport to deliver that content.
- There are quite a few technical problems that may damage otherwise excellent content of a game:</p>
- <ul>
- <li>insufficient accessibility: the game does not run on your hardware</li>
- <li>insufficient optimization: the game is slow</li>
- <li>critical bugs: the game crashes from time to time</li>
- </ul>
- <p>We work hard to make sure the games we create are accessible everywhere.
- That's why we released
- <a href="http://opengamestudio.org/mahjong-demo2.html">the second demonstration of OGS Mahjong 2</a> only for
- the web: because you can run web version virtually anywhere.</p>
- <p><strong>Answer 2: A video game development tool is ideal if it lets you create a video game of your dream in the shortest time possible</strong></p>
- <p>Even though we put a lot of effort into sharing our knowledge through
- <a href="https://github.com/OGStudio/openscenegraph-cross-platform-guide">guides</a> and <a href="https://github.com/OGStudio/openscenegraph-cross-platform-examples">tutorials</a>, we understand that those take a lot
- of time to study. One can't possibly make even a simple video game like
- <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentration_(game)">Memory</a> without performing the following steps:</p>
- <ul>
- <li>configure the development environment</li>
- <li>write code</li>
- <li>build an application</li>
- <li>debug the application</li>
- <li>repeat <code>write-build-debug</code> steps as many times as necessary</li>
- </ul>
- <p>Writing code and debugging are probably the ultimate forms of input and output
- of any software, so we can't escape those. However, there are ways to
- completely remove (or at least significantly decrease) the need for
- <code>development environment setup</code> and <code>build</code> steps. And this is what we are
- going to do in the coming months.</p>
- <p>Our goal for the coming months is to create a video game development tool that
- would allow any programmer (or sufficiently skilled person) to create the
- <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentration_(game)">Memory</a> video game from scratch in an hour.</p>
- <p>That's it for discussing how ideal video game and video game development tool
- look like, in our opinion.</p>
