Nope I've never used those because never did a really serious project, as I told you when I program it's mostly hobby and messing around, I do have a github account tho but I don't really use it

Here's a project I programmed months ago but abandonned since then, it was a prototype for a tile-based game, it was web-based so in JavaScript

I have managed to do infinite procedural generation and multiplayer so it was synchronized with a server

Used perlin noise to generate mountains (not shown on this screenshot tho)

I have been in projects, but never really started one. You made a game, that is great. Have you used git? It has a learning curve, but is fantastic for collaboration projects. Www.udacity.com has a free course in how to use git where you learn 99.999% of what you will ever use. (which is about 1% of what git can do). I feel we should use Trello and Slack. Trello is free forever and great to create tasks that need to be done and so on.

and here's a screenshot of another project I did but abandonned it was basically like minecraft you know cubes, 3D using OpenGL, this one wasn't web-based it was in C++ i basically wanted to make my own MineAutist game but then after 6 months (of course with not much time because school) i realized it was too big and I should try again latter with more experience in programming because you kno using bare OpenGL, no graphic engine/game engine making everything yourself is huge, take lots of time

No never used git

Just made an account tho

but nothing in it

Alright i'll check it

For this one generating chunks was really complicated, my biggest challenge was optimizing time so that chunks would generate as fast as possible

Git makes the job much easier. You will see how useful it is and if you are ever going to work with programming then I bet it is pretty much required to know at least one version control system. Git is the most popular.

Alright I will try to test it out a bit and mess with it just to learn before seriously using it then

Your games look like good attempts. When we make a shopify variant then we need to make a 'minimum viable product'. So there is a bit of planning before we can start working. The git course is relatively short and you learn pretty much everything you need.

Git is great in case I mess up and delete important code, save and then upload it to the repository or to see why something stopped working between versions and many other things. Will save us months of work between versions.

Mhm alright it's very complete has lots of features, I remember there was a system with "forks" or something where you could make sort of alternative versions and the remerge it with the main version latter on

What should we call the project? Even a project codename that we can call the trello board and repository. Yes, git is super complete (and complex) and the people who made it were very bright people. You will be amazed the more you learn about it.

There are other things like Mercurial which is easier to learn, but is less supported by online repositories.

Hmmm we could choose a name which includes the word "Shop" or "Store" and modify it a bit but without making it too similar to "Shopify"

And I see you know a lot about the subject, since you're a data scientist and all that I guess you previously worked in big projects ? With teams, using github ?

Or maybe like Amazon take something that is not obviously something about shop so that people will look into it to see what it is.

Ah I see, very smart, using their curiosity to attract them

Hmm

Maybe the name of an animal or something

Or

A Fully made-up random word which would make no sense

I have worked on small projects in teams. Never used github in a team (I have used mercurial in a team) . I have used github professionally alone though. And contributed to machine learning open source projects.

Nice, if I recall I saw interesting projects on youtube which used things like "Neural networks" or something and then it would simulate and simulate until they get something interesting, i'm curious about AI maybe one day I'll research more into it

Maybe we can name it after Devon. Maybe "Arthurs". A scandal in the making.

Hahahahah not sure if that's a good idea

Why not tho

If we keep the fact that's its named after him secret

I'm up for it. But would be hard to Google though. Maybe Devonar... Or just Devon and become THE Devon. Did Devon have a nick here?

I think his username was Wolfdevon

Hmm... Maybe just Devons? You know any language except English? Wolf is ulv in norwegian lupus in Latin... Lupdevon? Nah...

Loup in french

On discord he was PatricianSalafist99

Patridevon... Might be on to something.

Patrician... Hmm

Noble.... Nobledevon....no...

High Devon... High Arthurs... Topdevon... What about Topdevon?
