True that, I'll try to improve it a bit, thanks for the image

[Seiseki]

ANty I really like the art direction! The animation is very smooth!
But you'll have to do vertical animations eventually, otherwise the character is going to look like a zombie/drunken brawler.
And the current animation looks more like he's stabbing someone with a knife rather than swinging a blunt weapon.

The wrist and lower arm twists and turns, even for a horizontal swing, so you can't just keep all limbs facing the camera at the same angle at all times.
And if you always keep the arms up like that, it's gonna seem like he's stumbling in the dark with his arms stretched out.

Build scripts for Feuer Frei...building Love2D games for OS X is a pain in the ass.

While I'm sure you've read and are referencing it, just in case there's a reasonably comprehensive guide here. Once you've got your modified plist it's literally a matter of copying a renamed zip (your .love file) into your resources folder of a pre-prepared app, which isn't so hellish

Yeah, I'm using that as a reference but basically the thing I was having a problem automating was editing the Info.plist file; I figured it out though.

Glad to hear it Have fun with love, I miss it from time to time and it's nice to see how well it's grown. Can't stomach the thought of writing a big game in Lua these days though, haha.

Yeah, I think my experience with Lua has been the most fun I've ever had coding...whenever I try to do games in C++ or (god forbid) Java I just get mad when things inevitably break and that's how projects get cancelled.

Not sure what the rule is on double-posting in this thread but I'm just gonna go ahead with this because it's some massively different stuff than what I was talking about...

So, I'm beginning to throw some polish on Feuer Frei. The game isn't really that close to being finished yet but I get sick of looking at placeholder shit.

Here's the current title screen:


..Aaaaaaand here's the new studio logo.


Apologies for the huge images, the game is in 1280x720 and I can't be bothered to resize these.

[Geti]

use the width tags, like so

the "click to view" thing works the wrong way imo, doesn't give an overview as the default, which is unfortunate.

Either way, interesting effect. Don't be afraid to get a bit of colour in there.

[SolarLune]

To be honest, I would prefer that way too, but it's impossible to click to "full size" an image and scroll to view the entire thing, so I think it has to be this way. An alternative could be to click to open a new tab / window with the full sized image.

EDIT: Oh, yeah, cool effect. I agree with Geti about the color.

[Geti]

It's totally not impossible though Polycount forums have a very good example of click-to-maximise images, which keeps unruly 1080p images in line.

Thanks for the heads up, guys. I appreciate it.

As far as colour goes, there will almost surely be more colour in the game proper, I'm probably going to get an artist for the rest of the game so I can focus on other shit (namely, getting powerups to work properly).

Also, thanks for calling the effect cool..there's just something that looks incredibly rad about VCR font, HSV noise, and shitloads of random filters.

Working on the information system for Bandits and Bounties.  Each character has a store of information (both partial and complete).  I made a menu which you can use to ask NPCs questions.  You can either ask about specific people, places or things, or you can ask about incomplete information you have to get the missing piece

I am working on importing high-res digital elevation data from airborne laser scanning to build racetracks.
The image shows how three different terrain resolutions will be mixed: 1m grid, 25m grid, Google Earth snapshot

Figuring out a way to spawn weaponry and powerups in Feuer Frei in a way that's fair and still mostly random.

[Tadeon]

My current project MonoDi is almost ready. Just a little bit polishing here and there. You can follow the game in twitter. @Tadeon3

Testing out / debugging / implementing gamepad support for my engine / game. And not cleaning.



Working well on PS3 and 360 controllers now (including vibration on the 360; it seems there is no PS3 driver with rumble support on the Mac anyway). Ouya controller is proving difficult, but it seems to be the driver rather than the program.
