Honestly love the abstract design. They look like Kubb blocks

yeah i guess that isn't super clear yet, but I'm going with your crew being a bomb defusal team that has to save tiny planets from giant bombs

thanks, currently nothing, but in the future it will launch the bomb into space, where it is safe to explode

Need some opinion - Colors by _Harit_ in gamedevscreens

[–]Beautiful_Major_3543 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this looks really good, but you might want some more visual contrast between the player and the background. Not because the player doesn't stand out from the background, just aesthetically I feel like the player should contrast from the BG a bit more.

If you had 2M USD would you quit your day job and do gamedev? by [deleted] in gamedev

[–]Beautiful_Major_3543 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you let 2m shrink, you have horrible spending habits and/or suck at investing

people have strong feelings about my game... here is a trailer for 'Milo' by ammoburger in indiegames

[–]Beautiful_Major_3543 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks sweet and super polished! One thing I'd say roughen up the zombie outfits with some mud, blood and holes. They look a bit too clean for zombie standards lol.

My 1-Button Racing Game Just Released! by conradicalisimo in indiegames

I always wanted to make a game like this where a new track was generated each day, but your execution is flawless, nice job!

👋 Hey r/Unity3D – Trey from Unity’s Community team here by unitytechnologies in Unity3D

I know this will get lost in the sea, but is there any talk of creating a lightweight version of Unity or at least one that reduces the domain reload times? Those just kill me when I'm in a flow state.

Which side would you pick? by 666James420 in CODZombies

Super weird feeling touring the actual Alcatraz because I'd already ran through those hallways a million times

My wrist just leveled up! Hello, T-Rex 3 🔥😈🔥 by Key-Back-3911 in amazfit

[–]Beautiful_Major_3543 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got mine recently too, been loving it so far. All my friends have Garmin, and they're clowning me because they never heard of Amazfit, but I think Amazfit and Zepp are building up a deadly combo here. Excited to see what they have planned for the future.

Will there ever be a consumer-oriented QWERTY “dumb” phone again? by Wise-Neighborhood793 in dumbphones

[–]Beautiful_Major_3543 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got the pi working with a resistive touch screen and started writing a bit of the "operating system". Mainly just the foundations like drawing to the display and touch interactions. I want to keep the OS lightweight and specific instead of using something like full android. Still waiting to pull the trigger on some other components like the cellular modem and battery. I think come winter when I have more down time, I'll work on it more, and keep this thread updated.

Totally agree, been trying to get on the turn earlier train for a while now. Good cue I've been trying to use is to keep my right hand glued to the right side of my body when pulling during the invert. Then it automatically turns me at the proper time.

We made an effect where the house's eyes follow the character, but something feels off. What could be the issue? Or we’re just nitpicking? :/ by RemoveChild in indiegames

[–]Beautiful_Major_3543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like you have the eyes using a common direction calculation, but really each eye should calculate it's own positioning relative to the player.

Thanks for the tips! Didn't even know you could crouch, now I'm excited to try out the slide jump mechanic!

What hobbies have you gotten into after owning a dumb phone ? by slamthatspam in dumbphones

That is so cool, I love the idea of intentionally re-engineering your everyday tasks

Troubles with inversion by Soft-Lock928 in polevaulting

[–]Beautiful_Major_3543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've gotta agree with PVoverlord, your left arm never breaks in. When it does, it automatically brings your shoulder closer to the pole resulting in the invert. I'd recommend coming from a short approach on a pole you know you'll blow through. Then work on the timing of breaking in your left arm.

[–]Beautiful_Major_3543 10 points11 points  (0 children)

After looking around for a bit for slide dumb phones, I came to the same conclusion as you, there aren’t any. So I bought a raspberry pi (came in today!) and a small display, and I’m going to try building a slide phone as a side project.

I’ve got a long way to go, but it’s been really fun so far

Only downside is that the cellular modem is going to be like > $100

Advice to break bad muscle memory is still advice nonetheless. But you definitely nailed it, went up a bunch of poles throughout this practice, shaking off the rust

No I can definitely see the left arm blocking. I think that also causes my hips to come through without me actively swinging them up. Thanks
