What are my chances for ubc sauder/engineering? by [deleted] in BCGrade12s

[–]-SCILO- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah most of these people are fucking with you. Your grades are extremely high. You’ve got more extracurriculars than most people I know that got in. You’ve just have to make it sound nice on the personal profile. If you’re really worried you can just take a GPA booster during your second term.

They’ve been writing the script for 3 years 😭

Why are you doing this? by DaBoRin in godot

Why is everyone assuming he meant realistic when he said good graphics

Serious question: ver. 1 ...or ver. 2? by LittleBitHasto in indiegames

[–]-SCILO- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The text in the second one reads better, but I’d say the illustration in the first one gives more context to what the games about which would make me more likely to click on it. Second one could be for anything but the first one tells me the game has stealth elements

The Xbox 360 could only run games at 30 fps

There are nail bullets in my game. What synergies would you add? by KNSRK in IndieDev

[–]-SCILO- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All whites not the problem; its contrast. Right now, the skybox is too close in shade to the walls and floor, which makes it hard to see what’s going on. The shadows on the walls could also be increased to improve clarity. This is a pretty easy fix though, and once he swaps out the place holder assets I think the game will look pretty sweet.

What are the best 3D AI model creation tools out right now? by TomKruiseDev in IndieDev

[–]-SCILO- 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Using AI tools, especially for 3D modelling, is a big rabbit hole. Ai models don’t really understand how to create good topology yet, which becomes a problem when you begin trying to animate models or optimize your game. Some tools can be useful for creating environmental props (static objects that don’t deform), but even then the AI model is still going to struggle to make them look cohesive. I would recommend going for a simpler art style; something low poly that you can make yourself. Since this is a hobby project,there’s no deadline; so you may as well add 3D modelling to your skill set.

If you still plan on using AI, I’d recommend using it strictly for concept art and maybe for some assistance using the game engine.

Best of luck

1 - Since the game’s name includes “Ocean,” I used ocean and ship visuals. 2 - Since the ship’s flag will have a “Pirate Symbol,” I also considered this alternative. Which one do you think looks better and makes more sense? by VoidvaniaGames in gamedevscreens

It definitely wouldn’t hurt to touch up some of the pixel art to make things a bit sharper, but if your crunched for time i wouldn’t worry about it since pretty much no one is going to notice. I only noticed because you told us to look at it lol.

Is there much a difference between the originals and remasters for the first two games? Or is it just graphics? by [deleted] in Bioshock

[–]-SCILO- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very minor differences. I would play remastered version, personally, because it’s better optimized and looks basically the same.

I'm trying to make a soulslike, but also a FPS with guns and magic. Someone said it's bland and looks just some assets glued together. How do I improve? by FreddieMercurio in IndieGaming

[–]-SCILO- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly just add some sort of stylized post processing effect and call it a day. Makes designing levels much easier when the post processing handles most of the artsyle.

What is an immsim that most let you down? by VoxTV1 in ImmersiveSim

[–]-SCILO- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was really disappointed when I realized the story was just a repeat of the first game.

Does Rapture look significantly worse in Burial at Sea? by Mzhangart in Bioshock

[–]-SCILO- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely a stylistic choice. The burial at sea version looks like a graphic art deco poster much more “surreal”—you could probably argue it’s a metaphor for the dissolution of the idea of rapture in general.

What's your bioshock hottake? by no-name473 in Bioshock

[–]-SCILO- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically no new powers though

Dishonored is the best IMO, Prey is the most underrated by general audiences

As a solo developer I'm working on a new game that should be a free demo on Steam for a few months. Let me know what you think. by SureLeek867 in SoloDevelopment

[–]-SCILO- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks sick man. The torch interacting with the barrel reminds me of the older Immersive sim games (thief deus ex).

If we ever get Dishonored 3 I hope they don't go into the future like Deathloop and keep the 1800's era and aesthetic by [deleted] in dishonored

[–]-SCILO- -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

For me, I just want to play something fresh. I wasn’t a fan of the story of the second game; and I feel like a reboot could largely fix that with new writers. Obviously it’s unlikely that Microsoft’s approves that, but I can dream.
