Seen this a bunch on twitter, it looks great!

Trying to tweak my post Ludum Dare entry to feel more complete.

All these gifs are so great! Here's mine.

Some updates to my main menu. Most-recent was moving the title to the left, in line with the buttons, in response to some critique.

[Ordnas]

Yes, the title inline with the menu buttons on the left is correct, also a common designed used by indie titles (check Devotion main menu).

This entire page is gold.

I'm quite fond of a centred menu, design-wise, but alas it leaves less space for unbroken background imagery. :/

But yeah, in retrospect it does make sense to have the title line up with the buttons, whether they're centred or side-aligned!

Oooh, typing game but with keywords?

A character jumping, from a side-project of mine, a "wandering visual novel".

First, the hazards of not paying attention to one's scaling...



And second, the corrected version, now with a bit of "squash-and-stretch":

Thank you very much! I'm glad that you think so. ^_^

Already posted this elsewhere, but dis my first GIF.



I still need to work on screen capture. Recorded with OBS, GIF'd with ffmpeg using some instructions I found.

EDIT: Had to change to a host with fatter pipes.

Oooh, let's try to find a way to combine this with mechanics inspired by Ultimate Tic-Tac-Toe for ultimate mind-bendyness!

Which platform are you on?

On Linux SimpleScreenRecorder and/or Peek are working very well for me, depending on what I'm trying to do:

Also, this is the most up-to-date blog post I've found of how to encode high quality gifs with ffmpeg:

I adapted the bash script to not need /tmp/ but create/delete a local temporary directory and be a little bit more verbose about what it does:

Thanks JobLeonard!

TBH I don't care enough to become a GIF expert, but that dither flag definitely saves file size if your palette is as basic as a pixel art game. Here is what I'm using now (thanks!)

Code:

ffmpeg -y -ss 7.3 -t 13.6 -i cap.flv -vf fps=10,scale=480:-1:flags=lanczos,palettegen palette.png
ffmpeg -ss 7.3 -t 13.6 -i cap.flv -i palette.png -filter_complex "fps=10,scale=480:-1:flags=lanczos[x];[x][1:v]paletteuse=dither=none" cap.gif

I'll have to try out simplescreencapture. I'm on Linux. I guess I'm just used to OBS because it's also on Windows.

Hey, if you're already familiar with OBS, then it has the advantage that you learn how to use a crossplatform tool so..

Yes, but it lags my game like crazy. Both tools do. At least simplescreenrecorder keeps the preview turned off by default, so I'll either use that or tweak the settings in OBS. It probably takes a combination of fast encoding settings, preview turned off, and a low resolution to get those rad framerates.
