What's the end goal of your game user?

What game would you like to play yourself?

It was fun until some asshole deleted everything on it

Tetris but with guns

What about mine?

Boy, this is fun, although massively overpowered.

I am a law abiding citizen.

Thanks.

The visuals are 100% placeholder right now. Also I'm broke, I'm not hiring anyone or anything.

Color me surprised that someone thinks a bunch of boxes stitched together in a humane shape isn't a good design.
Still, where is your mecha ?

Does it still shamelessly clip through the ground while flying?

Slowly figuring out how to model stuff myself. Altering, rigging and animating models by other people before that has really helped with getting comfortable with all the tools and stuff.

This looks fun, the trails are nice.
I'm looking forward to playing this.

Creative mode: whatever you want.
PvP: competitive battle for the same living space, same territory. Bonus points that the player writes the cell DNA in advance so if you want to challenge someone she/he dont need to be online as DNA is a few byte binary, stored in a server, synced to every client.

>DNA is a few byte binary, stored in a server, synced to every client.
Kinda like pawns in dragon's dogma. Very interesting.

B U L L Y

Yes
But that's okay, I just need to add collision checks. The flying mechanic is still in its very early stage so I'm not too worried about it. I also need a way to prevent the player from flying straight up forever so yeah.

>Capcom has designed Dragons Dogma Dark Arisen to be a very social game, gamers are encouraged to use pawns belonging to other active gamers, and several creative methods have been developed by gamers for gamers to facilitate locating and hiring pawns through message boards or registries. Current methods include but are not limited to the boards on the gamefaqs.com website and a user-generated website that functions as a spreadsheet www.opsc.dark-arisen.com. Your pawn may earn valuable experience, rift crystals and possibly gifts so hiring pawns is both fun and rewarding.
Noice.

When there are enough dead (white) cells the predators (red) can get in and there is a huge gas explosion. Tis creates a natural cycle of: gas release -> gas eaters getting in, stones (grey) block predators -> enough dead bodies collect to move up the stones -> predators get in, eating all -> gas release.
Periodic environment changes as emergent behavior. Pretty cool.

Maybe some kind of fuel system?

Are those just animtrails, user?

OUTTA MY WAY MECHA FUCKING SHITS!

Give me your favorite hit effects.

fsdfds

Not even that, it's just a ribbon particle system attached to the missile actor. The system gets disabled whenever the missile is pooled back.

>the last kick

I like the last kick animation, looks really weighty. Though it ends kinda abruptly.

...

>relying on free tutorials

>weak chin tutorial

Buy my e-course, goy

give him tutu

Its also visible on the plot. The bottom line is the amount of gas in the system.

What tutorials? I just learn as I go and search for specific how-to questions.

Or well, I did watch a tutorial for IK rigging.

...

Woah, displaying the dead body count reveals even more about its periodicity.

I really hope you're not relying on bones for a mechanical rig.

The multi-missiles may be OP but it looks sick. Can't you do more missiles with less damage and worse tracking to balance or something along those lines?

Do you take min/maxers into consideration when you do balance ?

please tell me she has a dick

There's no need to min/max because you can max everything

How then? Seemed to work well on this "borrowed" model I rigged.

I'm a minmaxfag myself so I cater to them

Make a game involving skeletons.

Good luck making fluid animations without inverse kinematics.

I definitely can.

Bones are for deformation. IE- organic models like characters.
For mechanical models, all you need are object constraints.

Mecha like Gundam are basically characters. For things like , you shouldn't be using bones.

Different user here. I think its fine to use bones for animating mechs and such (in fact I don't think there's any better way to do it).
Problems with mechs are "cyclic" bones, like in your webm or pic related.

You can work around them by using constraints but they don't export to game engines, you would have to replicate them in there.

>Bones are for deformation.

I see; thank you.

I don't intend to export anything since my project uses pre-rendered sprites, but that's good to know for the future.

Are you an idiot?

>>Bones are for deformation.

Oh no. Godot wont allow me to order things in a 3D scene by their z position. How do they expect 2.5D games to work?

books.google.com.br/books?id=LlLSBQAAQBAJ&pg=PA543#v=onepage&q&f=false

What is this shit?

Ok, so you're a moron. Good.

>>>Bones are for deformation

>>>>Bones are for deformation

>mfw implement Journalist mode
>Journalists praise it as an innovative design decision

rekt

If minmaxing is optimal but not intended to be, the game is poorly balanced.
So you have to take them into account, especially in multiplayer, or they'll break the meta wide open.

so now that cuphead is out can the "you can't make 2d games in unity" meme die?

>no gameplay

no

I'm not sure if a simple run and gun game that slows down in the slightly more complicated bosses is a good example of 2d done well

what blender constraints work in game engines

I forgot to make room for icons to label my ammo types. Further fuckery might be required.

No, they shit on you for being an elitist prick making fun of them.
But if you call the same mode inclusive mode or some such shit they will praise the hell out of it.

lolno
There's no winning with retards, they will ALWAYS complain about something and the best course of action is to not give them any fuel by pretending they don't exist.

Not with those hitboxes, user.

There's a Doom joke mod called "trump doom" that has the "SJW difficulty mode". It removes all enemies and opens up otherwise locked "safe space" healing zones. Also all trump posters are replaced with hillary.

>what are drivers

>joke

Where's the joke

Good morning /agdg/!
I hope you all have a great day with good progress

it's 4pm

It's 12:51am. Stop living in the past.

i don't know what to make!

4pm comes after 1pm, you're the one living in the past

user... I...

Mecha jam devs, what kind of game are you making/going to make?

I always wondered how safe it is for those mechas to walk around with all those missile pockets. What if you get hit there? Wouldn't that make all the missiles explode?

mecha jam is unfair, how can 2d even compete

>Coding in Mono-develop

oh new aseprite was out a long time ago
aseprite 1.2.2 windows build
magnet:?xt=urn:btih:98215e3d17eac0e71452bb369fbecc06b27e6bcf

Reminder that if you participate in agdg "jams", you are holding yourself back from success.

Everyone who participates them is a hopeless, worthless, talentless developer with no real vision or prospects. It's just a circlejerk for hacks.

Make the missiles smaller and slightly slower. Fire them in a volley in the same "circular" pattern and you have something really freakin' cool

^ that's bait, don't do it

say that to comfy jam train tracks wooden trains raildev

With 2D mechas
