Is a game with no players possible? Well... I made one (sorta)

Checkout Game Maker's Toolkit (if you somehow haven't yet): / @gmtk
The GMTK Game Jam gives you 48 hours to develop a game from scratch. The theme was "out of control". The idea I settled on was a puzzle game involving cellular automata, inspired by Conway's Game of Life. Players will set some initial conditions of various cells on a grid, and then the simulation will play out.
I pulled out the good ol' Unity game engine to build this game. After some serious struggle, I eventually developed a possible game idea and figured out how to program it (didn't actually end up using cellular automata, but it kind of mimics it).
There are different types of cells with specific functions. A mover cell moves in one direction and pushes any cells in its way. A rotate cell will spin cells that touch it. A generator cell with duplicate another cell.
game development. The idea is that combining these will lead to emergent gameplay (with the goal being to destroy enemy cells).
During this game development marathon, I added animations, made some levels, attempted pixel art, made some more levels, programmed dragging and controls, and added even more levels. I finished the game about 4 hours before the deadline, which gave me plenty of time to make builds and submit. After that I actually fixed a bug and added level saving, and updated everything an hour before the deadline.
So I think I started to scratch the surface of emergent gameplay, something I've always wanted to do. The game is called Cell Machine, it's available on web/PC for now, but I might port it to mobile, but only if I can come up with a good title for that video lol.

I love watching these videos. I have yet to learn any real coding programs, but i started on scratch alll the way back in 2018, with simple coding that honestly sucked, it used bare bones basic coding because i didn’t understand if then statements or anything. Then i found a really complicated warrior cats game, and decided to remix it. It was then i realized, i could learn scratch coding by just observing the coding in the already made game. I hope to learn real game softwares soon, these videos and scratch really inspired me to learn coding!

But a sandbox mode seems like it's relatively easy to add, and it gives almost infinite replay-ability. This is just a suggestion though, don't take me as one of those guys begging for an update, I just think it would be great to have.

A few things I would add would be moving enemies, game over blocks (like, blocks that you must beat the level without letting any cell touch), one way pass through cells, run away cells, wrap around cells (like come back to the other side), shooting cells (that destory a cell in a certain direction every cell move), bounce cells (bounces a cell a certain amount of spaces, making it bounce over the cells), portal cells, non-fight-back enemy cells (like enemies a cell can defeat it without being defeated, or like they could be coins), goal cells (a cell that you must get at least one cell to after beating all the enemies), 4x4 cells (bigger versions of the cells), checkpoint cells (let's you rearrange your cells again, like a part 2 of a long level), custom control cells (you can make it move a certain number of spaces and turns, then it loops, still follows rotating cells though), destruction cells (cells of yours that will destory every other cell withotu being destroyed), enemy destruction cells, and etcetera. Although I must say, this game was pretty awesome and clever, pretty clever how you first had the idea of the living and dead cells but then made this whole game. I saw this reccomnded a bit ago and then watched this video, and you were able to come up with this idea and then make this game in tht time, you are pretty amazing. 👍🏻

Idea if you ever update the game: freeplay mode It’s where you can place anything anywhere and make your own personal levels, and stuff like walls, cells, and enemies could be on a menu on the side and there could be an eraser tool that can let you delete a cell

Here's some tips for shading in pixel art in case anyone here wants to know: 0: Shadows face away from the light(darker color), highlights face towards the light (lighter color) and midtones face towards the viewer (base color) 0A: Hueshift the shadows towards purple or blue tones, and the highlights toward yellow tones. (exceptions being materials like gold) 1: Every pixel counts! Make sure your lines look like what you intend them to do, and zoom out regularly to check the overall picture 1A: Spare your highlights! Too much or too little can make your material look too different 2: Start small, then work with bigger and bigger canvas sizes as you go along. You may even find a size you prefer! 3: Limit your palette! Keep your colors few so you can make more creative decisions. You can even limit your palette to just two colors! 3A: If you're not sure what colors to use, you can download a pre-determined palette on lospec.com/palette-list 4: Use a very dark tone as black for your characters! That way they'll stand out more from the background 4A: You can put a light-colored border around your characters if your palette doesn't have two different options for black
