[Slimekeep Devlog #43]
In this video I changed a few things in Slimekeep based on user feedback. I also added a bunch of new weapons and upgrades to the game.
About me:
Hey, I'm BenBonk, an indie game developer who uses the Unity Engine. I've made and released many small games before on my itch page, though now I'm attempting to make my first commercial game, Slimekeep. Slimekeep is a roguelike, using a very limited color palette, similar to Enter the Gungeon, though with a few interesting mechanics, such as keeping slimes alive longer will earn you more money, and the ability to capture slimes to power up your slime pet. If you enjoyed anything you saw, please consider subscribing, as it really helps me out.

    Great video. I love the guns, especially Jerry. One thing I'm concerned with is the Slimes blending in with the ground, maybe there should be an option for white outlines around the enemies? I had a bit of a hard time seeing them during the video. Also an idea for a gun: One that shoots notes. Maybe the notes could be in a specific order to make a song? They would probably move slower than average, and they would bob up and down in the air while they move.

    Great Devlog and a very fluid gameplay. I just found this channel. I have a suggestion, Can you make the main player in some different color? My reason is it differs the player from those slime and also implies he is not part of those slime army/creatures. Plus it will create a contrast for users to focus. My personal preference on the fully green gameScene would be peach/pink color.

    When you kill a projectile slime there should be a small chance that it will turn into an object which you would be able to pick up and turn into Jerry

    When the game comes out or a few weeks before it does upload the soundtrack please I love hearing video game music and I’d love to hear this.

    The slip .22 should be called “The Boomer Gun”

    9:40 cool weapon but maybe you could show in the magazine gui that the shots get larger after each shot. Like making the ammo icons get bigger after you shoot.

    Yeah I wanted to do that, but with how I set up the magazine UI, it’s just not possible to have different sprites. So it probably won’t happen unfortunately

    Maybe the lasers look a little janky? Wouldn't it be better to use a linerender with bloom and particleFX. (Instead of a sprite)

    idea: buff all damage of weapons and health of enemies to make more specific damage without having to go into decimals

    I think it would be a good idea to change the damage from 1 to 30. And continue in increments of 30. 1 = 30 2 = 60 3 = 90...etc Just 1 damage feels like very little, 30 feels like your doing something
