take a look inside your game and tell me what you see
do you see... bright lights?
or do you imagine? total darkness?

Mid-day progress
Gameplay loop works properly. You can progress, and you can die. Gonna get the boss fight put together so the game is winnable, and spend the remaining time adding content until the deadline.
2d is the only way for indie, pixel art is the only way to make a game that feels right, videogames started and went with pixel art for decades, you can't get the same gamy feel out of anything 3d

If your game were an episode of Star Trek: TNG, which episode would it be? If your game pursued a university education and lived in the dorms, what would its social life be like? If your game was a garden, what plants would it have in it?

I haven't been here in 6+ months because of a train explosion. Is Ace Combat bro still going strong? Did he make it?
Robert Bennett
make the dialogue less cringy and give skelly some puns
I asked in /g/ but they didn't answer I'm going through SICP but in Python to learn, it's different from the LISP SICP, but will that matter? Should I just keep going through the new SICP?

I'll pay you to stop triggering me and add in a scene/room transition so you don't just pop in to a room everytime pls

Couldn't you make buying a new heart refill all of your hearts in the process? Kind of like a "thank you for the purchase, here is a bonus"?

>Couldn't you just do xyz He can do whatever he wants. Is there a reason you think he should, beyond "make your game with all the comfortable trappings of the game you're making an homage of"?
Anthony Lopez
There's not much room for a ton of dialogue - I'll see what I can do
Planned, if there's time
I'm still on the fence about whether it should refill your health. When the game is more fleshed out there are a few things I'd like to revisit and see how they affect the balance of the game.
Samuel Morris
I do think 2d games feel better with pixel art than anything else

Added water. looks better in motion. More later.
Thomas Jackson
A little angry there aren't you, user? >Kind of like a "thank you for the purchase, here is a bonus"? That would be the only reason. And it was a suggestion, not a demand. No one said what he was doing was wrong. It was a process of bringing up an option he might not have thought of. It happens a lot.

A little defensive there aren't you user? It was a process of determining why you offered the criticism you offered. You asked him to make a change without providing a compelling reason for why he should make it. It happens a lot.

>Removed code that forces sprites to stay aligned with the pixel grid >Everything moves much smoother Feels good to be a sinner.
Also I made a texture atlas thing to get this to work without quads bleeding. And the window is now resizeable.

Julian Garcia
>WISH I HAD PROGRAMMED A KILLSWITCH so how illegal is it to write hostile code in your game?
Samuel Powell
I did it with LISP back then. You can do the exercises in Python, I guess, but Lisp is more of a Haskell-like language, so you might at least use something like that
Chase Sanders
Sure, meet me outside. You go first, I'll hold the door for you.
Oh, that's a compelling reason in your brain. Depressing.

>user makes a suggestion and gives a reason. It is now criticism and no longer just a suggestion because someone who isn't the dev in question is having a bad day. Key word of course is suggestion. It doesn't have to be compelling and probably doesn't even really need a reason. If the dev likes the idea or it gives them something to consider that is all that matters. If the dev wants to ask for the reasoning behind it they are capable of doing so on their own.

how did you make slopes? and what's the point of having them if you spend time bunny hopping? make particle spread less, it hurts to look at

Your suggestions aren't immune to criticism from anyone posting here.

And it was given. You didn't think it was good enough. That doesn't mean it wasn't provided.
As free as a single grill and spatula when you need a complete kitchen to make professional full course meals, that you're only allowed to use when you're not making significant amounts of money with it.

'Goal-setting has multiple benefits. Such benefits do not appear bound by conventional categorical domains, as they encompass psychological well being, physical health, cognitive ability and task performance. Furthermore, the process by which such goal-setting exerts its effects appears broadly generalized. Establishing difficult, specific goals can facilitate performance in an unrelated domain.'
Set small goals to start if you procrastinate a lot. Just doing 20 minutes a day adds up to over 2 hours a week! You can do that amount of focused work every day and you will see real benefits. You can do it!
Here's some miscellaneous design stuff to help with coloring.

You can make it smooth and alight with the pixel grid.
This is just you being trash at programming.

Collision detection is done horizontally first, then vertically.
When checking horizontal collision I use an alternate, slightly smaller bounding box. The underside this bounding box is slightly higher than normal, so assuming you don't move too fast you can move "inside" slopes a bit without being blocked. Next it detects (with the normal bounding box) the player is inside something solid and it tries pushing the player upwards out of it.
For downward slopes, if after horizontal movement the ground has disappeared, the game checks if there's something solid slightly farther below the player and pushes the player down on it.
Jaxon Richardson
I've used many insults in my life, but never would I dream of telling a man his chelicerae look like shit. Unconscionable.

Don't forget the rest of the page.
I didn't say it wasn't free, but don't confuse "free" with free but strings attached, like having to throw money at it for 24 consecutive months ($3000+) for it at best, or forced into paying on the regular if it makes more than $100k. (Not a problem for most, but it's still not free.)
Some people might be OK with throwing money at things endlessly, but if I'm relying on software for a personal / professional project, I want to keep that software without any caveats attached. This is also why I hate adobe "products".
Noah Fisher
It's a different game each time!

>Revenu Capacity What does that mean exactly? Lets say I make a game that miraculously go above that, what happens?
Adrian Williams
>man >chelicerae nice try
also it's missing pedipalps, the tiny legs in front of the chelicerae. and the head just looks weird overall Really overall it feels more like you modeled a vague idea of a spider rather than an actual spider
Jeremiah Price
How do you handle pushing when you have 2 moveable objets that can push each other? My characters start to tremble when pushing at certain speeds. How do I alleviate this?

I used a quick google search to see where the spiders legs were in relation to its body but I was a silly person and assumed spiders have 8 legs, unlike the actual 10 they have in real life. Silly me.

people have physical limitations, no amount of practice can ever overcome them. succes is basically luck. the sooner you realize that the sooner you'll be able to work with it rather than be stuck imagining yourself to be inferior
Parker Barnes
Can you be more specific?
Lets say I have a game that gets greenlight and then suddenly 100k people buy it for 5$, what happen with Unity if I'm using the free version? (just a scenario of course)
