Yo guys, no update yesterday.



Today I worked on optimization. I learned the scaling wasn't working great, so I implemented a seamless scaling method. Unfortunately it's slow. So I will hold off for now. Why, you ask? Because...

-helper bot
-helper bot squad
-spread gun
-day to night transition
-camera stand still for awhile when enemy die
-chance for deploying a faulty robot

not love:
-camera stand still for awhile when enemy die
-single shot
-chance for deploying a faulty robot

edit:
i paged it. i'm terrible...

Lionelc: Thanks for playing. Also thanks for quoting at the top of the page.

About your not love's:

-Camera: I'm fixing it. I was just adding random offsets, so sometimes if it moves, it gets out of hand.
-Single shot: It's actually supposed to do more damage but I forgot to implement that part of the weapon system. Haha.
-Malfunctioning bots: I'm probably going to take this out when I let the player spawn a bot with a paradigm of his choosing.

[J. R. Hill]

Dude this is coming along really well.  The gameplay is slick.

[leonelc29]

for the not-love part, the camera stand still is actually quite cool to have it, but it became out of control when on the chain killing where the camera will just stay there until you stop killing.
malfuntion bot is neat too, since you're deploying it using scrap metal

@J. R. Hill
i wanna see your gam!

[J. R. Hill]

I'm getting there!

[Manuel Magalhães]

I love...
-the pseudo-3D perspective
-the nice sprite work
-when camera stops following the player by a brief period of time when there's an explosion.

I would love if...
-the game was harder, the helpers aren't very needed because of it and there should be some sort of risk-award by using them (e.g. losing a bit of health)
-more weapons and power ups.

[Theophilus]

Manuel: Thanks for playing.

Difficulty: I'm working on it. It's sort of hard to balance.
Risk-reward: I haven't considered this. When there are different helper paradigms, maybe this will come into play more.

[Theophilus]

Ahh, first development in a while due to school and stuff.

Today, I:

-created main menu
-sorted depth
-Designed an enemy
-Designed some more weapons
-Balanced some values
