👨💻 IN THIS DEVLOG 👨💻
For a long time, I've only used a simple camera follow script for tracking the player. In this game, the ragdolls can be flung around in all kinds of ways AND you have the ability to control the camera zoom, which made this simple solution not quite enough. I ended up combining two different ideas: track a position that smoothly follows behind the player and add on top of it an offset value to frame the scene. Secondary additions include auto-zooming to keep the ground in view or when the player has a high velocity, as well as the use of raycasts to locate the ground.
I also created a basic title screen, and improved the connection forming of circular shaped objects.
Should I change the game's name? A good name describes the game well, is pronounceable, memorable, and searchable. I don't think the current name "Siege Engineer" checks all of these boxes. "Siege Sandbox" won the twitter poll, and it visually looks cool, but it's kind of awkward to say too. I'm probably overthinking this lol. "Siege Physics" is growing on me. Leave a vote in the poll in the video!
🎮 GAME INFO 🎮
Siege Engineer is a 2D physics-based puzzle game I'm developing with Unity. You are tasked with building siege engines to transport the ragdoll foot soldier across enemy territory. Fed up with his siege engine genius being ignored due to his low status in feudal society, our protagonist has decided to single-handedly take over kingdoms and stuff.
To play, drag objects from an inventory into the scene and connect them together. Press play to watch chaos ensue. Create catapults, trebuchets, vehicles, and much more!

You should still have a few levels about destroying enemy castles, they shouldn’t have been completely taken out.
The camera zooming at the beginning was funky :D I really like your explanation/animations for the new camera tracking! As for the name, I see why you want to change it. Out of the new ones, I like Siege Physics the best, although from your google docs list I like Sir Flingalot :) I'm excited to test the game as well!

@@SamHogan Sir flingalot is more memey/humoristic, rather than a name that fits the game in my opinion, so if I had to choose, I would definitely pick Siege Physics.
The only dislike must be from a huge fan of the old camera tracking system. Good work sam!

Thanks! Looking at it now though, I think the graphics are actually kind of confusing
1:29 - Haha! I live for those montages... 😂🤣 The camera tracking system is looking seriously good! Well done! You also brought up some great points on why it needed to be re-designed! With regards to the name, I tend to agree with Twitter... I like the alliteration! Great video as always Sam! Keep it up! 😁🥳🔥

Thanks a lot dude! I usually like the simplest solution for things, but the old camera tracker might have affected gameplay. And good point about the alliteration, probably why siege sandbox was so popular. I just wish it rolled of the tongue better!

Will there be a sandbox mode?
I love the game! And the devlogs! One request (assuming this is still in development) - can this game have a sandbox mode for just messing around? The level editor is pretty close, but I think a sandbox would just be amazing. (also, I would definitely be trying to build mechanical computers if there was a sandbox - and probably even without that!)
he should make a sandbox where you can make anything with any material.
I'm not sure if you still work on this project, but it would be cool to make a special high score mode where you try to launch the guy as far as possible
I have an idea what you could add 1. each ragdoll has random hat or clothing 2.have somekind of survival mode where you need to protect your guy from incoming sieges (catapults, trebuchets, etc.) 3.make it so you can turn gore on or off 4.add it so you could control the character (the idea might be too hard) 5. Add it so you can make your character hold weapons and use them (maybe even make your own for battle levels)
I have an idea you could add. And that is you could bring back breakable walls but they act and work like the wood walls just they have a pressure limit we're the player has to find a way to the flag with a persific weight limit of the walls
I think there should be a more where you (as the player) can create (and maybe even download or share your own levels by allowing editing of terrain and machines and allowing access to all players and allowing use of all pieces.
Maybe a button that links up all unlinked joints? I saw you were clicking on each rock pivot separately... I imagine those are unlinked joints. Very cool looking project though!
can you add a sandbox mode so you have inf items and you can make whatever you want also there is a terain shaping tool
you should call it "old timey physics game where you make stuff to achieve an objective"
More tutorials pls I love your vids
I’d think Siege Physics is a good name for the game.🐱
Can you make a sandbox. When you complete all levels?
are there still going to be destructible walls
As a Scratcher, I can say that, I used the 2d to make the 3d.
I love the camera in videogames, Greetings from Spain 🇪🇸
*yes*
where are for devlogs for this game?
Make other characters that will have their own code, for example: Cavalry - destroys wood with lances, but is more susceptible to crushing etc. Pawn - Runs across the battlefield and destroys wood after 10 hits Mobile - shoot their bows at stone and wood wood - 5 shots stone - 10 shots And the last one is the enemy the enemy kills the main soldier with 5 blows. Hits every 3 seconds. You can kill him just like breaking the main soldier. Have you really read until now? xD
Can you make a sandbox mode with inf stuff and you can spawn in ragdolls
You should make a mobile version!
You should be able to have joints break if they get put under a lot of pressure

i know i'm very late but i think it would be very fun if you implemented some sort of online play were people could upload their levels and other people could play them.
What about Mid-Evil Physics?
I like the name seige simulator.
Launchalot!

0:27 Same as the Super Contraption game, I play it, but don't care it lags behind.
Sir Launchalot is obviously the right title, how could you pass up on that gold
I think sam hogan has died. RIP, Sam hogan. 2013 - 2020. you are already missed.
