1 year of progress on my game

Ойын-сауық

These last two months I've finalized the base for map generation, fixed a bunch of saving/multiplayer issues, and implemented plenty of sound effects and music! Also overhauled the entire UI system and redesigned most of the menus. Excited for what the next year has in store!

    12:07 "I'm not really satisfied with the menu art" This is a joke right? RIGHT? Seriously that parallax is the coolest thing I have ever seen in my life. Love your different approaches that you took an level generation over time, it feels like tis is the pinnacle of it.

    I really like the direction this game is going. I think it would be cool if you added hats. They could be gotten through achievements, or you could make a base hat item that is fused with other items to make hats. If you do add hats, can you make one of them a potato hat? I did the math, and it turns out games with potato hats sell 3x more copies than games without potato hats, so it would also be a great business decision.

    Small critic: The desert theme sounds more like a spy movie theme song then a dessert theme to me. The Trumpet thing sounds deserty but the rest of the instruments sound like I'm sneaking into top secret facility. It still sounds good and it's a very minor complaint but it doesn't sound like what you're going for IMO.

    I'm so glad you made a fishing minigame, those are the absolute best part of nearly every game they're in. Edit: The slime sfx sounded kind of bad, honestly Edit 2: not having a game play loop this late in development is deeply concerning, just adding different elements which may be good on their own but are only loosely related doesn't seem like a good sign. Otherwise, everything is looking great!

    Just a little FYI, on the gameplay you showed for the bit with the music I was getting pretty significant motion sickness. I think it's the wavy effects on the trees (and cacti) that's doing it. I don't get motion sickness very easily, but something about the way the waving goes in the same direction made the whole screen feel wobbly to me, probably something you'd wan to look into

  • @quinntreber3805
    @quinntreber38056 ай бұрын

    Amazing work, this looks really great already. Here's some random thoughts I had while watching. I love the idea of smashing the pollutant thing to summon a horde of enemies, it reminds me of terraria events like the goblin army. The one potential problem I see with it is that in terraria the enemy army would travel to your base, but here you're the one traveling to the enemy base. I might be understanding wrong but it seems like the human enemies spawn once you smash the pollutant, which makes it confusing why they didn't attack earlier. This doesn't necessarily need to be fixed, but if you did, one potential fix I can think of is if the human base was a lot larger, almost like it's own biome with walls, watch towers, barracks, dormitories, a kitchen, etc. The pollutant would be at the center, and you'd have to sneak through to get to it (I'm imagining old ben Kenobi switching levers in the death star). If someone sees you, it could be kind of like the bokoblin horn in breath of the wild except that only other humans within a certain radius hear, but once you destroy the pollutant then everyone is alerted to your presence and you have to fight them all as they enter whatever room you're in. There could be more heavily armored guys in the barracks, nimble archers in the watchtowers or on the walls, maybe even a cook in the kitchen who tries to smack you with a frying pan if he catches you, and more. That would make the enemy camp infiltration more dynamic and allow for different playstyles because you could choose to either take out some guards before you destroy the pollutant, making it easier when everyone is alerted to you, or you could sneak straight to the center and fight all the enemies at once. Also you could put human camps next to lakes and/or rivers and have the pollutant be causing the water nearby to be green or brown, like the painted lady episode of avatar the last Airbender. And then instead of destroying the single building that represents the pollutant, you could flip a lever that stops the flow of waste into the lake or something similar. Then taking over the camp has more of an impact on the environment and you can see the world returning to nature as you conquere the island. Also at one point you hit a slime with a spear and it looked like the spear was leaving your hands, I think it might look better if the spear was longer

    so I want to say that I've been around for a long time (so my wishlist is one of the older ones) but I'm still around and I am loving the way this game is turning out! Honestly, the music is what gets me the most excited because it's so lively and brings so much interest to the atmosphere of the biomes. I love the art too. I think that the game has really come along way and I can tell that it's definitely shaping up to have its own unique style. Obviously this style was there before, but now it seems way more cohesive and I'm super proud of you for managing to get this far. This video has gotten me excited to see some more of the gameplay and I hope that there will be a variety of exploration based and story-based quests for players aren't the biggest fans of combat. I also hope to see some accessibility and difficulty settings in the future for players who are keen on the exploration and adventure side of the game, but not so much on the combat one. I am so excited for an early release of this game even if I don't end up playing it at first. I feel like just showing more gameplay and doing a couple of spotlights will definitely increase interest on your game. If you're already at 19 K wishlists, I can only hope that what comes from now on will simply be loved by the obvious quality of the game and the love that has been put into making it a cohesive experience.

    I really like the new menus like the inventory and hotbar, they feel a lot more goblin like. I like the artstyle and i get that the game is not nearly complete but i feel like everything lacks detail. Because this game is randomly generated that means you cant take advantage of level design and intricate setpiece compositions so the player will always see the same things but in a diffrent order. This is not necessarily a bad thing it just means that if you keep things too simple the game will get boring quickly. I feel like the best way to combat this is just to add a lot of stuff and detail and variations to existing things. You know more in the direction of Stardew Valley, Graveyard Keeper, Terraria and maybe not like Forager (I like Forager but its quite simple looking but it works for that game because it is pretty short without that much replayability)
