🤖 Java Game Development Journey

The script begins with the narrator's fascination with Java, a programming language they find both delicious-sounding and historically significant in game development, citing RuneScape and Minecraft as examples. They recount an early attempt to learn Java from a library book, 'Programming Video Games for the Evil Genius,' which ended in frustration. Fast forward 15 years, the narrator embarks on a quest to redeem themselves by creating a game using Java. They start by taking a refresher course on Java syntax via a mobile app, then move on to using Eclipse IDE, a popular choice for Java development. The first project is a classic 'Hello World' program, followed by the ambitious goal of creating an old-school RPG inspired by NES games like Dragon Quest. The script details the initial steps in game development, including setting up a JFrame for the game window, creating entity and player classes, and implementing basic sprite movement.

🎨 Crafting an RPG with Java: Art and Sound

The second paragraph delves into the artistic and auditory aspects of game development. The narrator discusses the challenges of creating vector art for the game, eventually opting for pixel art to capture the quirky charm of classic RPGs. They mention using a pixel art software that doubles as a level editor by exporting tiles as text files. Moving on to sound, the narrator experiments with LabTur, generating various sound effects and crafting music with Beatbox, a new experience for them. They also introduce a pausing state system for inventory and stats viewing, and create a rudimentary world map to test room transitions between towns and the overworld. The addition of NPCs using the previously established entity system is highlighted, along with a dialogue system that allows characters to interact. The paragraph concludes with the narrator's intention to save combat mechanics for a future video, reflecting on the rewarding experience of building a game from scratch without a game engine and expressing their enjoyment of working with Java. They recommend RN's tutorial series for those interested in Java and promote Brilliant.org for interactive learning in various fields, including programming.

Transcripts

Java has always fascinated me not only

is it the most delicious sounding

programming language I've ever heard but

some of my favorite childhood games like

RuneScape and Minecraft were made using

it it was created to let programmers

write once and run everywhere meaning

Java code automatically works on other

operating systems without having to

recompile which is truly a beautiful

thing and ever since it's release in

1995 it has remained one of the most

popular programming languages needless

to say I've been anxious for a long time

to try it out and see what I can do with

it now I must confess when I was 12

before I even made video games I went to

my local library and picked up this book

called programming video games for the

Evil Genius a pretty cheesy name for a

book that was just about learning Java

of course after skim reading a chapter

or two and trying to copy the code I

quickly became frustrated and completely

gave up so fast forwarding almost 15

years later I think it's time for me to

redeem myself and see if I can actually

make a game from scratch using Java not

scratch I mean Java you get you get what

I'm saying so starting off on my Java

Quest I did something that I haven't

done in a while and that was actually

taking a little Java course on my phone

and by take a course I mean I just kind

of did a couple levels to get a feel for

what the syntax was like and honestly if

you're a beginner or new to programming

languages uh I feel like this is just

like a good thing to do it just kind of

gives you a general idea before you just

start jumping into it anywh who after I

was done getting familiar with the

basics I downloaded Eclipse which is an

IDE and just in case you don't know what

that is it's basically just software

that you use to code in but this one's

specifically for Java and I seem to

remember using an IDE called net beans

as a kid but Eclipse seems a lot more

popular now so I just figured I would go

with the crowd after that I set off to

create a simple hello world program

which was pretty straightforward

basically you just create a package and

I named it Maine and then you create a

class and I also called it main I know

it's confusing just trust me on it after

that I slapped in the classic system out

print line hello world and there you go

your first Java program I did it so

after getting my feet wet I knew I was

ready to start working on my real

project instead of CR a little mini game

like I normally do for these kinds of

videos I want to do something I've been

dreaming about for a while now and

that's making an RPG and I'm not talking

about rocket launchers here I mean like

an old grindy RPG that you would play on

the NES games like Dragon Quest and

Earthbound Beginnings I don't know why

but I find these games simplistic art

style super strange characters and

repetitive combat to be so Charming they

always feel so empty yet so full of

character at the same time so now we

know what direction the game's going to

take it's time for us to do something

basic and that's just draw a window and

no I'm not talking about getting out a

box of crayons and drawing a house with

a window I'm talking about that frame

that you see on your desktop when you

play a game luckily for us Java has its

own built-in container class called

jframe meaning our game can be built

purely with Vanilla Java so I set up

jframe and made some of the parameters

any who after doing all that I was able

to successfully draw a window and as you

can tell I was very excited next I

created two new classes entity and

player I'm planning on making NPCs later

on so creating an entity class allows me

just to reuse that code for the player

and NPC for example like drawing their

Sprites or checking for collisions and

speaking of Sprites I was able to load

and draw the Sticky's image make a move

around the screen so yay I should also

point out that I found this wonderful

tutorial series by rynow and it was

beyond helpful he does a really good job

explaining how all this works so if you

want to know more about the nitty-gritty

details and all the code definitely

check it out next I want to dive into

creating a tile map system this is

something that has always been

intimidating for me for some reason it

turns out to be super easy essentially

all you have to do is create a text file

full of numbers the numbers represent

different types of tiles like zero is

water and like one is grass and two is

sand then all you need to do is load the

data into an array and then slap it into

a for Loop boom you got yourself a tile

map and that's great and all but how do

you make a camera system so that the

player like can move around a larger

tile ma area well the trick is instead

of moving the player you move the tile

set after that I made an if statement to

see what tiles were on screen that way I

could save performance by only rendering

what the player could see and last I

created collisions so you couldn't just

like walk on the water so there you go

now as you can tell the artwork is

looking a little rough around the edges

and since 50% of RPGs is just artwork I

felt like we probably should update this

now my original idea was to create a

vector art style inspired by Byron be's

Pokemon world map illustrations I've

been a big fan of his work for a while

and thought an RPG could look Super

Fresh in this style though I quickly

realized that higher resolution Vector

artwork wasn't going to scale well down

into pixels so this led me to kind of

just create this same style but using

pixel art instead I thought the results

of this were kind of cool but I

personally felt like this missed that

quirky charm that I wanted to emulate in

my favorite NES RPGs so after a slightly

iterative process and the use of the NES

color palette I ended up with this my

animal inspired RPG so with that done I

got to work replacing and adding in all

the new tiles and artwork I also found

that pixel edit the pixel art software I

use has a feature that lets you export

tiles out as a text file essentially

turning my art software into my level

editor which was pretty sweet after this

I felt like the sound aspect of the game

needed to be addressed so I jumped into

lab tur I generated a couple of

different sounds and then added them to

the game I especially love this door

sound when you enter a house it just

It's oddly satisfying for music I made

it myself using beatbox which I haven't

used before I was surprised how easy it

was to pick up but uh my song's a little

clunky so let me know what you think

after that I created a pausing State

system so you can eventually look at

your inventory and view your stats and I

also Drew this text onto the screen so

that text is actually a font I also know

that world maps are a pretty big deal in

these types of RPGs so I jumped back

into pixel edit and made this kind of

smaller world map just as a test run to

see how I liked it this also means I had

to create a room transition system so

you could go from towns to the Overworld

right now there's only one town but I

think it's it's pretty cool it's start

starting to feel like an RPG at this

point I knew it was probably time to add

NPCs I mean they're such a critical part

using that entity system I mentioned

earlier was super easy and made adding

these NPCs take no time at all and then

I add a dialogue system so I could have

Bears say weird things like this and

with that we have a basic RPG structure

we're still missing combat which is the

most crucial part of the game but I want

to save that for a future video because

this was a project I just really enjoyed

working on I can't explain it but making

a game without a game engine is super

satisfying it's difficult and

frustrating especially when you know you

could do it 10 times faster using

something else but it's also really

rewarding cuz you know that you made it

yourself I have a lot of plans what I

could do with this RPG in the future

even just as a passion project please

let me know if you like to see more of

it if not I'll probably just continue to

work on it on my own time overall I

really enjoy Java I think this has

probably been my favorite language I've

used so far in this series I highly

highly recommend you check out RN's

tutorial series on Java it's

unbelievably helpful it explains

everything that I covered in this video

pretty much and even if you're just

mildly interested check it out also if

you're wanting to learn how to code

yourself and you don't know how to get

started check out a word from today's

sponsor brilliant okay you might know

this by now but brilliant is where you

learn by doing with thousands of
