    This game engine has filled me with so many happy memories. I remember getting home and calling my friend over to mess around in the games we made, I don't think I ever uploaded any of the games I made with this engine, but I do remember sending whatever I made to my online friends on Facebook, seeing them have fun with something I made just filled me with motivation, and it still is a great motive for why I still am into indie game making. I completely forgot about this engine after switching computers, thanks for reminding me of it! You just gained a new sub, keep on making videos.

    Thank you for this good video about FPSC.
    Right now I am in the process of creating a game with FPS Creator. I am retired, and use FPSC as a hobby. I enjoy the ease of use as you mentioned. I have no scripting, programming, or modeling skills, but am able to make a decent game. I don't care what the critics say, TGC's accomplished what they set out to do, and that was to make an easy game creating software.

    I never knew I'd see a FPS Creator video to this day, pretty sad that all it's reputation got trashed to oblivion when it's clearly players that had an idea of selling shovel ware for dirt cheap

    • @SackoYT
      @SackoYT  Рік тому +12

      GameCreators made a comprehensible game maker that anyone can make a game with. Consequently, it means shovelware spawns from it too. But that's not GameCreators fault at all, and some projects have shown that you can actually make something decent with fps creator, like Kshatriya Prologue for instance.

    great video! FPSC was a huge part of my life and ever since i discovered it when i was like 7 i wanted to become a game dev, i always thought this engine had a lot of potential despite its shortcomings and being a broken mess sometimes, and it gets a lot of undeserved flak in my opinion. i've used it for about 11 years but never actually made anything good cause for most of that timespan i was a dumb kid lmao. nowadays though i make mods for games like half life, but i still do mess around with FPSC once in a while lol

      Im trying to prove you can make a fun fast paced game, like quake, in fpsc.
      I have a devlog on my channel for it, id share a link but youtube keeps removing the comment. lol
      Ive hardly seen any fast paced fps games in this engine
      It was originally inspired by quakes movement and goldeneye's destructible items
      (exploding chairs, boxes, etc) and at this point I just keep adding more and more to it lmao
      Anyway, Great video!

    I can't begin to tell you how much fun I had with this software in the first decade of the 2000's. Sadly, the later iterations when it became GameGuru just lost some of that magic and fun that FPS Creator had.

    This sounds freaking awesome. As someone who has always wanted to make games, but yes has not honed the talents, this sounds awesome! I'd love to give this and 3D Game Maker a try. You said that Game Guru Max is the successor to FPS Creator by the same people? Does it operate in the same way, coding all pre-done, everything simple for people like me?

The video is about a niche subject that mostly FPS enthusiasts are likely to be watching, not a promotion to sell another game outside the main topic to casual viewers. Also subjective, the optimal gameplay is also the most honest showcase of gameplay, not some pre-scripted, smooth and choreographed presentation. Anyone actually familiar with the game will be more appreciative of one's showcasing of skills rather than fake "good looking" scripted gameplay.

    I think when it comes to Game Engines or really any program, Easy-Accessibility comes with the cost of Customization. FPS Creator while easy to use, lacks features due to it being very easily accessible. It’s good for beginners, but for people who want more options, it can be a downside.
