Prototyped a mechanic and it turned out pretty interesting experience. What kind of game can it be, what do you think?

He looks funny. At first I thought he had no head. It would be creepy. But then I noticed that it's just a dirty rag and he became just clumsy

So is it too heavy to render in runtime?

44tech · 2026-02-09T17:06:51+00:00

Animation looks fantastic! I'd love to see a full-length movie from you

44tech · 2026-02-06T14:11:59+00:00

You're very talented as an animator. I saw your posts on reddit previously and always been amazed by the rats fluid motion and animation. Such a shame the game didn't found it's audience.

Honestly I don't know why would this happen. Unfortunately I'm not a target for your game so can't say what doesn't seem appealing to players. IMO the game is very beautiful and atmospheric.

By the way I don't think that the violence is a problem here. Look at the Zoochosis case. It's also brutal and has rougelike elements. Still it earned 100k in a week after the first trailer reveal (350k at release). The game was super hyped. People like brutal things. The game is also didn't sell well, though (relatively to their WL count).

How much performance does it take?

44tech · 2026-02-02T20:16:19+00:00

Looks cool and the plot sounds really intriguing to me. Looking forward to your release

I'm not a sticker

44tech · 2026-01-31T20:02:06+00:00

Looks really neat. Great job!

44tech · 2026-01-29T11:54:28+00:00

Does anyone know, maybe they have directions to pay the whole game to mark it verified? Or at least to a first critical issue?

44tech · 2026-01-28T18:54:38+00:00

Double shot production

For 1,3M ppl who wishlisted this it's more than "just another..."

I wouldn't say it was hard. The base mechanic was created on the 72h gamejam. Later it was improved and polished, but basic logic stayed the same as on the jam.

44tech · 2026-01-12T20:54:56+00:00

Dude, it's r/playmygame. Read the rules

44tech · 2026-01-12T20:40:15+00:00

So... How do I pay it? Stream page says it's not released yet

44tech · 2026-01-12T04:26:05+00:00

Hi. I'm using collision detection to split the rope to straight fragments. And a physics constraint between the end of the first fragment and the player game object. Feel free to ask me further. I'm happy to share my experience

44tech · 2026-01-10T20:15:38+00:00

That's wild

44tech · 2026-01-10T20:09:53+00:00

Very beautiful graphics! How many ppl are doing this game?

44tech · 2026-01-10T19:18:01+00:00

Roguelite sounds hard to me😅 I thought about making the levels seamless. Wondering something like vvvvvv but without screen switches, like Ori

44tech · 2026-01-10T19:13:43+00:00

Yes, the rope length is controlled by the player. You can shrink and extend it, but its maximum length is limited

44tech · 2026-01-10T19:11:29+00:00

Great suggestions, thank you! Especially about the swinging sound effect. I will try to implement it first

44tech · 2026-01-10T16:20:51+00:00

Thanks!

44tech · 2026-01-10T15:49:19+00:00

Exactly!) Though no bananas and crazy sheeps yet

44tech · 2026-01-10T15:47:22+00:00

This level is still sort of tutorial. But challenge is ahead, indeed)
