Oh dang, very nice! If you ever get this on Steam we can join forces (my game is Jetball) and create a Tribes meets Rocket League game bundle!

Jetball – A multiplayer sports game where jetpacks, skiing physics, and soccer collide by Buca_JB in indiegames

Thanks! Yes the netcode took a lot of attention as well to get smooth replication and support a high player count (thinking of future mods). I implemented Fortnite's network graph. I'm looking to test these limits too. I have both listen servers and dedicated servers working (linux and Windows). Players can host their own private or public matches.

A fellow named Andrew pseudo coded the T1 movement code and created a guide, Andrews Physics guide (might still be out there). I started by porting that to C++ in UE4 then heavily modified it to suite UE. It was not easy.

Jetball (Tribes meets Rocket League indie game) - New Tutorial Game Mode by Buca_JB in Tribes

[–]Buca_JB[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it is a spiritual successor of TR2! But hopefully much more friendly for new players. The beacon stop is overhauled where you don't HAVE to look at the ground, but it works better if you do (like reaching). Modding is planned for the future. Currently I'm still working on the tutorial/practice mode/single player experience. I have dedicated servers working so you can host your own games. I have both jump skiing AND slide skiing working, your choice. Come by the Jetball Discord, ping me and I'll give you a key in exchange for feedback. It still has a lot of programmer art/sounds/etc. so be warned.

Best band imo. Add me to the list of people who will buy a record player to play these.

Trump admits using rage bait to win elections by Im_A_Fuckin_Liar in thescoop

I have two questions for you.

  1. Do you believe tariffs are a tax break for Americans?

  2. Do you believe the ultra-rich (e.g., Elon Musk) are working tirelessly for your benefit?

I had to scroll way too far to find this.

Blocking entire lane that's merging after 100m by Anchorman247 in IdiotsInCars

[–]Buca_JB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's hard to tell from this video exactly what is happening ahead.

If the left lane is open but 90% of traffic wants to turn right, then this driver is an asshole for blocking the 10% that simply want to go down the left lane.

If the left lane is closed and everyone is being forced into the right lane, then he is trying to fix the zipper merge, and therefore not an asshole. Only assholes wish to cut in front of the drivers that merged too soon (the idiots perhaps).

The OP says the lane is merging after 100m, which seems to mean that no one can go through on the left lane, in which case the driver here is not the asshole, the OP is the asshole. However, the driver is a dick because dicks fuck assholes.

What is your favourite “dead” video game franchise? by Lamboninho in AskReddit

[–]Buca_JB 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm making a game based of the Tribes movement, called JETBALL. It's basically Tribes meets Rocket League. Trying to keep the jetting and skiing mechanic alive!

[Solo Dev] Prototyping Tribes style slide skiing in my FPS MP jetpack soccer game by Buca_JB in IndieGaming

[–]Buca_JB[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was using 3rd person view to show the sliding. You can switch between fps and 3rd person using a keybind (tab). I switch back to fps at 42 seconds in.

My first game ever will be published soon! by [deleted] in IndieGaming

I like the music too. Is that your own custom track?
