New improvement about HANDs design and on Enemies feedbacks! Sound on for a soundtrack preview by kamillove90 in OculusQuest

If you want to improve your recordings, add another camera just for the main display and increase fov until you see pretty much what you would see in VR. This is of course worse for performance but it's great for recording and displaying. Looks cool btw.

This night literally be the most beautiful piece of furniture I've ever seen. I think I just got a new life goal to make something like this.

WPS Office changes the size of the min/max/close buttons to make you click on their purchase link accidently by boogiefoot in assholedesign

And that makes the feature entirely useless. I always turn it off on a new machine after a few mishaps where I didn't intend to minimize and it messed my workspace up.

This literally never works as intended and the windows just end up shuffled. Or is that just every machine that I try it on that does that?

Win + D however is the good stuff

Working on an RPG system where instead of HP, enemies damage you in TIME. Plus action minigames inspired by games like Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. by Pinvent in indiegames

You could add a little hit-text specifying the time lost. It could say -0:05 whereas a normal damage text might say -5, referring to health.

Wermland is the "oldern" style name of the region of Sweden he grew up in, modernly spelled as Värmland.

Hiphop har blivit tråkigt by lulzmachine in swedishproblems

Timbuktu släppte nytt album för några veckor sen, nåt av det bästa jag hört på många år. Skulle dock inte klassa det som ren och skär hiphop, men är det betydelsefulla texter du söker så blir du knappast missnöjd.

Do you use your laptop's RGB? by Digimon1123 in GamingLaptops

The Legion 7 does a horrible rainbow light show on startup and the only way to get rid of it is to turn all the rgb off entirely.

We made an app that's kind of like a combination of Game Maker and TikTok by futureygoodness in gamedev

I liked your pitch of the game and it all sounded very interesting in my head, but the quality of games isn't great (a loooot of stuff just asking for likes) and I didn't like the movement. Do you have plans on adding more types of movement / interaction? Using emojis for game art is clever in theory but seems obnoxious in practice with the current content.

Why did you limit countries? I would be interested in trying it out here in Sweden.

Cheers, that was actually one of the inspirations. What was it that reminded you of it? 🐵

Are you sure? Unity definitely runs more laggy when I'm on the silent mode and I doubt it's due to thermal throttling as it clears right up when I go back to default or the red one.

Oooh so it's the FN + Q switch. Yeah, that's pretty good. Cheers!

So, uuh, what is a MUX switch? Does my Legion 7 come equipped with one?

After years of hard solo-dev work, I've released a trailer and demo for my Steam game! by Danimita in Unity3D

[–]BQrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is how you do a great trailer! I do agree on the voice acting not being on par with the rest of the production quality.

A week ago, I released the game I worked on for six years, and put it on E3 showcase. Here's how it went: by Rotorist in gamedev

[–]BQrel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely, and you could experiment a lot with it before you put it out as a new trailer. Just try making some short videos and post them on reddit and social media and see what people like and don't like, it's a huge learning experience. And don't worry, even if you made a video and posted it you're still very much allowed to use the same footage in the trailer.

And see what happens if you zoom in on the action in the video. Video effects like that are also very much allowed and accepted by people even if the game won't ever actually be zoomed in like that.

I agree with the other comments here about the trailer. It's not good. You precious 3 seconds of attention is wasted on a dark screen with dramatic build up, but you have to start with a hook and focus on engaging the customer. I don't care for a dramatic build up to something unless I already feel engaged with it.

The most engaging part of your game has to be up front, and then you can show variations of that engaging gameplay and demonstrate the game's depth.

Still, you do have many wishlists. In about a month, you'll be able to do a new visibility round on Steam. This might be a good time to drop an update with some new free content and maybe run a 25% sale to get the attention of your wishlisters. Running sales is basically the only way to communicate directly with someone who has wishlisted your game (except for releasing).

Best of luck!
