I did a lot of field work today. Tiles can have scripts. They do stuff. It’s pretty rad.

I like it, what pixel size are your characters?

Things added to ColorNinjas today include: Disc trails: Nuke trail particles: "time stop" kind of effect upon end of round showcasing the cause:

Yes, it was frame early. Had to refactor some of code today to make it catch the exact moment of death: Is the lack of an "a" after "killed by" bothering anyone else (apart of me)?

Would love to see a slowdown when projectile gets real near like in the matrix , letting you avoid or explode into a gorry fest

Without an "a" sounds better, it's like "death by fire" and not "death by a fire". Also the game looks very fun to play.

Sorry I didn't see your question (if that's me you're asking). Robot 34X58 pixels. Human: 8X18 pixels. Artist: Robert Lopatto http://rob-lopatto.blogspot.fr/

Today I got 'world-space' intersections working for my 2.5D sprite system. Basically now I don't have to worry about draw order of sprites and they should just render the parts of themselves that are closer to the camera than any other sprite they intersect. ex: Still a bit of z-fighting there but I probably won't fix it since the game won't feature much 'perfect geometry' like cubes

It has been a while since I've tried to do something with pseudo-3d, but I recall that my last attempt didn't go too well.

While that'd be cool, the primary purpose of this effect is to answer "How did you even kill me?" kind of question. Matches rarely last for longer than a minute and speed adjustments stand for an extra trouble with online multi-player being one of core points in the game. Without an "a" sounds better, it's like "death by fire" and not "death by a fire".
Also the game looks very fun to play.
Thanks! My thoughts were turned towards an "a" since a specific "instance of cause of death" could be seen - effect is almost telling you "here's that shark that killed you". I suppose I'll leave it as-is then. Also testing whether I could add some background tiles to add some scenery variety without sacrificing anything: What do you think?

There's no specific polygon information stored (ie, this sprite doesn't know it's a cube). Instead each sprite is made of some metadata (scale, origin, framerate etc) + a sheet of frames where each frame looks something like this: (diffuse/normal/world) When 2 sprites overlap in screen space, each one maps the others world space info into its own local space and uses that to determine which is closer to the camera on a per-pixel basis. It's a complicated and maybe over-engineered way to do it but I'm trying to use QML without C++ as much as possible for this project which unfortunately means a) no depth-buffer access in shaders and b) no control over draw-order for sprites. PS. I'm getting flashbacks to Liero looking at those ninja gifs which can only be a good thing

Today, I made this gif! This is the process I run to procedurally generate basic areas for top-down games. Kinda reminds me of farmland... It generates it based off the player location, and eventually, I want to add random houses with procedural interiors, but that's gonna take a fair bit of work, and I'm already REALLY off track with what my current game project will use. So now that I've been properly derailed by this engine, it's time to work on something more productive. lol

Also testing whether I could add some background tiles to add some scenery variety without sacrificing anything: What do you think? I think that looks fantastic. The player and the power-up box thing could use drop shadows, though. Maybe the right side of walls, too. I made a tool to view DOOM maps like they appear in the in-game automap.

Looking real good, would be great to see this new art in a gif format so we can see if it detracts while moving or not, but i'd be surprised if it does detract

...A crappy music sketch ColorNinjas looks very cool by the way! The disc is making me think of Tron Deadly Discs - Which I still play..!
